Chapter 1525: Adults

"Hello, Zhou Ran, the owner of this cruise ship." The woman smiled slightly at Chen Yu and extended her hand.

"Chen Yu." Chen Yu shook hands with her briefly. Because this woman had a very unusual temperament, he took a few extra looks at her.

"I apologize for what happened just now; I apologize to you on his behalf," Zhou Ran said with a faint smile.

"It's fine, I'm used to it." Chen Yu laughed: "And you should also be glad that you appeared and stopped him just now, otherwise he might really be having a hard time right now. I said it before, the person who would be thrown into the sea would definitely be him."

"I know you are not an ordinary person, so I came out in time to stop him. He is my younger brother." Zhou Ran smiled faintly: "He isn't very old, but he always wants to do something big, and he often offends some of the guests on the ship."

"He isn't that young anymore; he is an adult. Since he is an adult," Chen Yu paused here: "Then he should be responsible for his own actions. Otherwise, there are plenty of people in this world who will teach him a lesson."

"I know. Regarding what just happened, I apologize to you." Zhou Ran's attitude was quite sincere; she smiled slightly: "I guarantee that such a thing will not happen again."

"It's best if that's the case. I was in a pretty good mood being here, but it has been ruined by people one after another." Chen Yu let out a breath, feeling a bit depressed: "I hope he won't be tactless enough to find me again, otherwise..."

Chen Yu stopped speaking there. He gave Zhou Ran a meaningful look; the implication was already very clear. If this kid did this again next time, there was a high probability that Chen Yu would not be polite.

"Mr. Chen, let me buy you a drink." Zhou Ran smiled: "To apologize to you."

Chen Yu originally wanted to refuse, but seeing that this woman seemed to be approaching him deliberately, he nodded.

Zhou Ran accompanied Chen Yu to the bar on the second floor. It was already late, and the place was now open for business; the noisy bar appeared extremely lively.

They ordered two cocktails and clinked glasses. Zhou Ran took a small sip, then set her glass down.

"Mr. Chen is going to Fusang for business, right?" Zhou Ran smiled.

"How are you so sure that I'm going for business and not to trade?" Chen Yu turned his head to look at her.

"You don't look like someone who trades, because your temperament is different." Zhou Ran shook her head slightly: "Your identity is not simple, and your strength is also very high. Otherwise, I wouldn't have appeared so timely just now. If the Zhou Family had offended you, they really would have been thrown into the sea."

"Your sixth sense is quite accurate." Chen Yu looked at her deeply.

"It's alright. A woman's sixth sense generally doesn't go wrong." Zhou Ran smiled: "That's why I can tell you are different from the rest."

"I am indeed not here to trade. There are some things to attend to, but it's not convenient to talk about them." Chen Yu smiled slightly.

"Understood. I will not proactively pry into a guest's privacy." Zhou Ran smiled slightly: "So you don't have to worry about me pestering you with questions."

"Is this cruise ship yours?" Chen Yu looked around at the surrounding environment.

"Yes, it is mine." Zhou Ran said: "It can be considered an inheritance from my father before he passed away. After his company went bankrupt and was liquidated, this was the only thing left."

"That's quite good. Running a shipping route is not the same as doing other things. There are many twists and turns involved, especially on the high seas where you encounter all sorts of problems. And you even detour into sea domains that ordinary people haven't set foot in before returning to Fusang. Without some guts, one really wouldn't dare to do it," Chen Yu said.

Indeed, this cruise ship's route did not go directly from Huaxia to Fusang, but rather detoured to the high seas, circled around, and only entered the port from Fusang after taking in the maritime scenery.

The route along the way had many problems, such as pirates and mysterious sea domains; ordinary people would not dare to open such a route.

As a woman, being able to navigate this route without issues showed that her identity was not simple.

"I am just a woman. When the route first opened, I encountered many problems, but they were all solved later on." Zhou Ran smiled and said: "It's also possible that I just have good luck."

"I think it still has to do with personal strength." Chen Yu laughed: "You don't need to be humble."

Zhou Ran smiled slightly and did not dwell on this topic. She toyed with the glass in her hand: "Mr. Chen is a Dharma Cultivator, right?"

"You know about Dharma Cultivators?" Chen Yu asked in surprise.

"I do." Zhou Ran nodded and said: "If it weren't for encountering a Dharma Cultivator, perhaps my father wouldn't have passed away so early, and I would still be a girl who hadn't grown up, pampered by others."

"In that case, you know quite a bit about Dharma Cultivators, don't you?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned.

"I wouldn't say that. Although my father did indeed die at the hands of a Dharma Cultivator, I cannot condemn a whole group of people because of that." Zhou Ran shook her head: "In this world, where are there no evil people?"

"My father, perhaps it was just his destined Life and Appearance to suffer a calamity, so I cannot blame others. Besides, I have tried every possible way to avenge my father."

"Being able to deal with a Dharma Cultivator, you are indeed not simple." Chen Yu couldn't help but take a few extra looks at her, feeling somewhat surprised in his heart.

After all, she was just an ordinary person. For an ordinary person to be able to deal with a Dharma Cultivator, she was truly not simple.

"Dharma Cultivators are also people, it's just that their strength is relatively stronger." Zhou Ran said: "As long as you put in a little effort, you can definitely find their flaws. As long as they are human, they have desires, and once they have desires, they have weaknesses. As long as I seize the opponent's weakness, I can kill them. There is nothing strange about that."

"Fine, I admit, what you said does make sense." Chen Yu nodded slightly: "That's right, Dharma Cultivators are actually no different from us."

"Although they possess super-strong strength, it is precisely because of this strength that they become inflated."

"Correct." Zhou Ran looked at Chen Yu: "Dharma Cultivators control the power of heaven and earth. Possessing such strong power, they have no way to restrain the desires in their hearts, which is why they become crazy."

"My father, it was precisely because he encountered such a person that he met his end in regret."

"But I can tell that you are different from them." Zhou Ran raised her head and looked at Chen Yu: "So this is why I am willing to approach you."

"My sixth sense is strong, and that's not just talk, because if I come into contact with a person, I can tell whether there is malice or evil thoughts in that person's consciousness." She swirled her wine glass.

"Then what about your brother?" Chen Yu suddenly said: "Zhou Fu, what do you think he is thinking?"

"Him?" Zhou Ran laughed: "He is my younger brother. I know what he wants to do better than he knows himself."
