CH 25
Ch 25 - Second Generation Ancestor x Illegitimate Child: Second Watch
The weather was especially good on the day Song Yunqing’s cousin got married.
The four storey cruise ship was filled with flowers and balloons in a particularly dreamy arrangement.
Lin Sui and Lin Min went on the cruise together, greeting the host standing at the entrance welcoming the guests.
“An-An, you go for a walk first, I saw Manager Tan and I want to go tell her about an ongoing project.”
Lin Min held her handbag as she looked back and forth for a moment, then locked onto her target.
Lin Sui nodded and walked to the deck on the second floor, looking at the waves being blown by the wind over the ocean.
“A-Sui, why didn’t you come look for me when you arrived? I wouldn’t have known you were here if my sister hadn’t told me.”
Song Yunqing was dressed formally and there was pomade in his hair, which, alongside the cedar and gold rimmed glasses he wore, actually gave off a slight businessman feeling.
“You always see me, aren’t you busy greeting guests?”
Lin Sui grabbed the champagne he was handed and clinked glasses with him.
“You’re naturally the priority in my heart.”
Song Yunqing smiled, and stood with him in the sea breeze.
Some noise came from the port, and Lin Sui and Song Yunqing just so happened to see what was going on below from their position.
Song Yunqing looked at the man in a black suit walking into the cruise, and the smile on his face faded slightly.
He wasn’t surprised that Yan Qin had gotten an invitation, he was currently one of the hottest people in Jingzhou, so regardless of whether it was the Song family marrying the Zhang family, giving him an invitation was normal.
It was just that the other party didn’t send an assistant, but rather came in person, so his goal was probably not simple, Song Yunqing thought as he looked at the corner of Lin Sui’s clothes beside him.
After all, the business of the Song and the Zhang family didn’t have anything to do with the direction of Yan Qin’s business, but it was also possible that he was wrong. After all, no one could be sure Lin Sui would come to the event, only he knew that Lin Sui had personally agreed to his invitation and would certainly come.
But Song Yunqing didn’t know that, on the night when he had issued his invitation, Yan Qin had been on Lin Sui’s bed just across the door.
Yan Qin handed his gift to the host of the party and congratulated the newlyweds.
He noticed the look that fell on his body, and lifted his eyes to meet Lin Sui’s gaze.
Lin Sui’s look was vague, as if no one could be reflected in his eyes.
Yan Qin exchanged a few pleasantries with the host and went into the cruise.
His goal was very clear, he stood on the second floor, in a place not too far but not too close to Lin Sui, and quietly watched the picturesque young man.
Yan Qin did not go to greet him, after all, he knew that after the events of last time Lin Sui would not be friendly towards him, especially not in front of so many people.
The Lin family had decades of roots in Jingzhou, and he didn’t want Lin Sui to leave his scope of control before he could get his hands on him, he had to be absolutely safe.
Countless others stepped forward to greet Yan Qin, and Yan Qin dealt with the interpersonal relationships skilfully and easily, but he only followed one person out of the corner of his eye.
Lin Sui naturally noticed that gaze that followed him relentlessly, he used the wine cup to block the slightly raised corner of his lips and watched the vast surface of the sea in a cheerful mood.

1 心魔 lit. heart devil. Not a literal demon, it comes from a cultivator’s negative emotions or mental hang-ups, and can attack the cultivator from the inside and cause a qi deviation if not properly dealt with. Top.
2 Apart from calling him young master (少爺), Yan Qin is using a formal ‘you’ (您). Top.
3 閘口 lit. sluice gate. A gate in a man-made channel designed to redirect excess water, but figuratively it’s used to refer to something that restrains or releases a substantial volume (a ‘flood’) of something. This is all used euphemistically, but I figured ‘floodgate’ would be more recognisable. Top.
