Chapter 201 - Coquettishly Act

Qu Xing Xu went back to his room. It was the largest room inside the ship and was decorated with the highest quality of furnishings that could be found inside the ship.

He slowly loosened his robe and was about to take it off when he heard a knock on his door.

He paused and looked at the door before he frowned. 

Usually, when he gets inside his room, no one would come over unless something happened. However, he already had a meeting with the other leaders of his forces and thus, there shouldn't be anything that needs his opinion on.

Slightly irritated at the sudden noise intrusion, Qu Xing Xu still went to open the door but only slightly.

He wore a frown on his face and glared at the person behind the door.

"Sir, please forgive my rudeness. I came here to say my thanks for saving me." A beautiful young woman stood before him.

She was wearing a red dress that has chrysanthemum prints at the hem of her skirt. She looked so pure and could move the strings of heart of any men. Unfortunately, she revealed her intentions too soon as she batted her eyes at him.

"I did not save you. It was one of the crew in the ship." Qu Xing Xu nonchalantly said. His eyes were cold but never landed on the young woman. 

He was getting irritated at the fact that his men were being relaxed and let a woman near his quarters. It seems that they needed to undergo another hellish training once again. But no one can really blame his men as they haven't heard of the news that their master was already engaged to Lin Xiaofei as they stayed inside the ship most of their times.

The young woman didn't give up. She felt the heat rushing to her cheeks as she never thought that anyone could have such masculine and deep voice. This man before her was indeed a top quality and only the best could match her.

"Still. If it weren't for your ship passing by before our boat sank, we would've died in the middle of the sea." Wu Qian said. 

She was the daughter of a grand duke from the Rei Kingdom. With her extraordinary beauty and talent, every men in the Kingdom of Rei was fallen for her charms. But no one was good enough to captured her eyes nd heart. 

And being as spoiled as she has been since she was a child, even when she's already past the marriageable age, her father never forced her to marry and her suitors never ceased to inquire about her.

Because the summer was about to come, Wu Qian told her father that she wanted to ride a boat but who knew that a storm would take their boat from the shore and put them in the middle of the sea.

Thankfully, a huge ship made of pure metal arrived just before their boat sank in the sea and saved the handful of people who were with her.

At first, Wu Qian wanted to use her father's name and title to command and buy the ship. But upon seeing the extremely handsome man on the ship, she couldn't keep herself from falling for him. 

Thus, she decided to seduce him while they're inside the ship.

Coincidentally, the man was the owner of the ship. If he falls for her, wouldn't that mean that the ship would naturally fall on her hands? 

Beaming at the thought of her commanding the crew and having the most handsome man in the world, she began to hallucinate that she's already the wife of the handsome man.

"I didn't see you in the dining area and wanted to know if you want to have a meal with me." Wu Qian couldn't waste this moment now that the extremely handsome man was standing before her.

Qu Xing Xu listened at the nonsense that the lady was talking about. From the moment she was scooped up from the sea and saw her face, he already recognized her identity. 

However, it wasn't Qu Xing Xu's decision to bring her and her people on his ship. Apparently one of the new recruits saw her and fell for her. And only by the time they were already got out of the sinking boat and got on the ship did Qu Xing Xu found out that the new crewmate went against his orders.

Now that everything was done and he couldn't throw them back to the sea, Qu Xing Xu will let them be for as long as they won't interfere with their business.

Otherwise, Qu Xing Xu cannot promise that he wouldn't kick them back to the sea while there was a storm outside.

At this moment, the ship rocked hard. As men who were used to ride the ship, they didn't panic and move around as much as the new crewmates and people from the Rei Kingdom. 

And as a noble woman, Wu Qian couldn't take the force and her body moved against her will. However, that didn't mean she forgot to take advantage of the situation.

Seeing that she was swaying around, she chose to move about and towards Qu Xing Xu. 

She slanted her body towards him with the intention to fall in his arms. No man could resist a woman's charm especially the touch of their soft bodies after all.

"Ah!" Wu Qian screamed in alarm and she hit something hard.

With her eyes closed, she smiled inwardly, confident that she has gotten what she wanted with this move.

She raised her head and opened her eyes. The teary effect that men cannot resist were already in action.

"Sorry, sir. I just lost my balance and fell." Wu Qian said in a coquettishly tone. Even men in the King od Rei couldn't resist her once they heard her speak in this tone.

Princes even confessed their feelings for her and expressed their desire to marry her. 

However, no one answered her and the thing that looked back at her were wooden and stiff.

Precisely speaking, the hard thing that was in contact with her body was not Qu Xing Xu but the door. 

And the man in question was already inside his room after slamming the door shut.
