Chapter 91 Can we not talk about him?

When Chen Jichuan returned to the deck railing, Cheng Huang had already retreated to the cockpit door and continued to observe secretly.

However, he was soon swept by Shang Youqing's lukewarm gaze, so he had to look away honestly.

"Although I don't know what Cheng Huang said to Colonel Shen, Cheng Huang always likes to exaggerate when he speaks. Colonel Shen doesn't have to take his words to heart." Shang Youqing turned around and said to Shen Jichuan.

While Chen Jichuan said "OK", he tilted his straight back and took off his military jacket.

Shang Youqing squinted her eyes. Just when she thought Shen Jichuan was going to give her the jacket again, the next second, Shen Jichuan picked up a corner of the jacket and threw it over the railing. The cold sea breeze originally heading towards the deck was caught by the jacket, bulging.

Shang Youqing looked at this scene, was silent, and suddenly couldn't help laughing out loud.

Chen Jichuan, still holding his windproof jacket, glanced sideways at her when he heard her laugh. "What are you laughing at?"

Shang Youqing's eyebrows curved slightly. "I suddenly remembered a funny story from a long time ago."

"Tell me about it."

"When I was a child, Cheng Huang often took me to Jiutian for fun. Shuijing was one of the places Cheng Huang and I often went to. For a while, I met a playmate in Shuijing who was a few years older than me."

"I still remember the first time I met him. He was a little kid sitting secretly in the water realm crying. I asked him why he was crying, and he told me that it was because his elders at home disciplined him very strictly. He had to go back and forth to Jiutian for training every day. That day, the elders gave him a torn bag and asked him to go to Jiutian to fill it with anything. As a result, he filled a bag full of wind from Jiutian and came back home. He was scolded and cried when he got home..."

Shang Youqing said, his eyes fell on his bulging jacket hanging outside the guardrail, and he couldn't help laughing again, "Just like this."

Chen Jichuan raised his eyebrows, "You remember? I thought you had forgotten me long ago."

Hearing this, Shang Youqing's expression changed slightly, and he turned to look at him again, looking Chen Jichuan up and down in front of him, "...is it you?"

"Of course it was me," Chen Jichuan lowered his eyes, deliberately lowering his voice to scare her. "As for the broken bag you mentioned, my father gave it to me."

Shang Youqing remained calm and composed, "I didn't mean to offend the Wind God."

Chen Jichuan stared at her for a moment, finally smiling. "Okay, I forgive you."

After making sure the wind around Shang Youqing had weakened considerably, he tucked his coat back in and said, "I was planning to return to you after completing my training, but I didn't expect you to come here first."

"I came here for—"

"You came here to borrow a spiritual weapon, I know." Chen Jichuan's sharp and handsome features were slightly amused, and he reassured her, "I didn't misunderstand anything, Shang Youqing, don't worry."

Shang Youqing stared at him for a long moment, said "Oh," and looked away.

As they chatted, the ship quickly arrived at the coordinates of the shipwreck.

Shang Youqing went down the gangway of the lower cabin to the steps close to the sea surface. She wanted to scoop up a handful of sea water to check it out, but as soon as she stretched out her hand, she was blocked by Chen Jichuan beside her, "I'll do it." Chen

Jichuan took a bottle and filled it with water, pointed to the steps and ordered Shang Youqing, "Go into the cabin."

Shang Youqing had to temporarily withdraw her gaze from the bottle in his hand, and followed him into the cabin. When Chen Jichuan handed the bottle to her, she immediately took it, poured out a little, put it in the palm of her hand, carefully detected the composition with her spiritual power, and then sniffed it closely.

"The smell is faint, but it's definitely the trace of a sea dragon. It hasn't left this area yet."

Chen Jichuan pulled out a few tissues to wipe her hands. "Does this mean it's trying to repeat its trick and hijack the next cargo ship?"

Shang Youqing poured the seawater back into the bottle, took the tissue, and said, "Thank you." Even after drying her fingers, she still felt a little cold, so she stuffed her hands in her pockets to warm them. She nodded and said, "I guess so."

Chen Jichuan frowned slightly. "We can't let it stir up trouble again."

Shang Youqing pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked up. "I've got an idea."

Chen Jichuan rarely saw a glimmer in her eyes. "What?"

"We can disguise ourselves as a passing cargo ship to lure the sea dragon out."

Chen Jichuan considered the plan and looked at her. "That's feasible."

They immediately set to work. They returned to the ship and, referring to the size of the previous shipwreck and the number of containers, tried to reconstruct it as closely as possible.

Cheng Huang watched Chen Jichuan and his men busying around, becoming increasingly satisfied. He couldn't help but return to Shang Youqing to whisper something.

"When I get back, I'll tell the priest that the children of Fengbo and Yushi are the best. They haven't grown up badly after working hard outside for so many years. They are even more popular than when they were little!"

Shang Youqing: "...Didn't you say you didn't know him?"

"This," Cheng Huang choked, "I just remembered it."

Shang Youqing lowered his eyes coldly, "Cheng Huang, stop talking nonsense to people."

Cheng Huang got angry on the spot, "What are you doing? That damn dragon hasn't received retribution yet, why are you punishing yourself? Phoenix, I don't allow you to belittle yourself--"

Before he finished speaking, Shang Youqing raised his eyes and looked at him calmly.

For the first time, she brought up a related topic, but her voice was very light: "I don't feel sorry for myself, I just feel it's too disgusting."

She said and became quiet again.

She slowly closed her eyes, steadied her breath, and finished her words, "It's really disgusting. Can we not talk about him?"

Cheng Huang was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but step forward with red eyes to hug Fenghuang, stroking her back, her voice trembling with anxiety, "Okay, okay, it's Cheng Huang's fault. I won't mention it again. Fenghuang, don't cry..."

Shang Youqing's shoulders slumped slightly, and she leaned quietly against Cheng Huang's shoulder for a moment. She moved her red lips lazily, and her expression had returned to its usual calmness. "Let go, are you going to strangle me to death?"

Cheng Huang finally let go of her with a wronged look.

Just as he was about to say something else, he looked up and saw Chen Jichuan coming from the cargo hold. He hesitated, afraid of upsetting Fenghuang again. In the end, he didn't dare to say anything and retreated to the side with a limp.

Chen Jichuan gave Cheng Huang a strange look, "What's wrong with him?"

Shang Youqing said with a sullen face, "I scolded him and he cried."

Chen Jichuan's eyes arched slightly, "...Shang Youqing, are you so fierce?"

...Shang Youqing stopped talking nonsense with him, pointed to the cargo hold above and asked, "Is the arrangement almost done?"

"Yeah, it's almost done." When the business was mentioned, Chen Jichuan's expression returned to solemnity, "We will set off in half an hour. For safety reasons, I will let the reconnaissance ship follow behind, and there will be only three of us on the freighter."
