At eight in the evening, the banquet hall was bustling again.

On the second day of the cruise journey, a “Captain’s Night” banquet would usually be held. Yesterday’s fiftieth-anniversary celebration was too formal, and tonight, it was just an extravagant dinner.

Of course, attendance at this banquet was not mandatory, one could choose to dine elsewhere.

However, as the president of Hanhai, Qin Zhiyou had to attend. Not only did he come, but he also brought a female companion with him—Lu Weixi.

In the morning, he had made two requests to Lu Weixi. The first was for her to fulfill the duty of a group president’s wife by accompanying him to the event and participating in ‘spouse diplomacy’.

Lu Weixi did not refuse.

Although she had been reclusive for five years and lost contact with many old friends, this didn’t mean she was timid or felt inferior because of the changes in her family. She was just too lazy to socialize or to be the life of the party at banquets.

However, Qin Zhiyou’s words made her realize that, now, she and him were partners in benefit and misfortune, honour and disgrace. Moreover, with Qin Zhigu, Cai Yiren, and even Bai Changyou returning to China, she could no longer hide in the villa like an ostrich.

Back then, her insistence on marrying Qin Zhiyou was all for show, to flaunt before Qin Zhigu, to get back at Bai Changyou and Cai Yiren. It was her goal to live a vibrant, rich, and dazzling life and to crush Bai Changyou under her feet.

In the afternoon, Qin Zhiyou left Lu Weixi in the suite to meet with others for business talks. But she wasn’t idle. Qin Zhiyou had specially asked his secretary, Wang, to stay with Lu Weixi and provide her with an intensive course on the identities of the distinguished guests she would be interacting with on this trip.

Qin Zhiyou, fearing that she might have trouble remembering all the guests, had only prepared information on thirty key invitees and their spouses for her. As for the relatives who had come onboard with these key guests, and the information about three hundred ordinary invitees staying in the second-class cabins, he had not given her any.

Lu Weixi took a glance and found that more than half of the invitees were old acquaintances. But five years had passed, and some information had become outdated, so she needed at least to brush up on this. She also went through the profiles of the new faces she needed to pay attention to.

However, a glance at the list of key invitees revealed no sign of Huang Caiwei.

Previously, it was Huang Caiwei who informed her about Boss Liao’s plan to take the cruise. But she was not sure if it was because Huang Caiwei and her husband, Wei Junlai’s status were not high enough, or they simply did not embark on the ship.

Just as she was pondering over this, a WeChat call came in. It was Huang Caiwei, “Weixi, are you at the company? I’ll head over after leaving the hospital if you’re not busy.”

It’s supposed to be Saturday, a rest day for her, why did Huang Caiwei come again? Regardless, Lu Weixi still asked with patience, “Aren’t you participating in Hanhai’s maiden voyage?”

“Ah, don’t even mention it,” Huang Caiwei complained, “My mother-in-law fell critically ill and got hospitalized. Our house has been a mess these past few days. We had to give our tickets to someone else.”

Lu Weixi did not continue with her topic and asked directly, “What company does your husband work for? What’s his position?”

With Huang Caiwei’s reply, Lu Weixi checked the invitation list. Wei Junlai’s company was a multinational one, but he was only the second in command in the Great China region. At his level, there was no way he could make it to the key invitees list that Qin Zhiyou had given her. It was likely that they had bought tickets for the cruise in the first place..
