Chapter 197: Chapter 157: A Top-of-the-Line DSLR and the First Father-Daughter Photo
After hearing this, Lu Fan smiled. "Who says there’s no scheming and social politics in college? I don’t care how they try to chase Sifan, as long as it doesn’t hurt the relationship between Silu and Sifan. After all, Silu doesn’t have many true friends at school. Among these three roommates, only that Miaomiao’s intentions are probably a bit more pure. But hey, people are multifaceted. As long as they’re not bad, they’re good."
A moment later, he stood up and said to Chen He, "Call for the speedboats to take us to the yacht."
"Yes, Boss." Chen He immediately contacted the subordinate in charge of the boats.
Soon, two speedboats headed toward the beach.
Lu Yao was the first to spot them. She hopped with excitement and said, "Are those two speedboats here to take us to the yacht?!"
Lu Fan walked over and said cheerfully, "Alright, it’s time to board."
As for how everyone would be split between the two speedboats, Lu Yao, Liu Shiting, and Song Miaomiao naturally understood and tactfully boarded the same one.
The other speedboat was, of course, for Lu Fan, Jiang Silu, and Chen He.
When Jiang Silu saw this, she felt a little embarrassed.
But the thought of riding a speedboat on the sea with her dad made her feel a little excited.
"Alright, let’s go!"
The sea breeze rushed to meet them, carrying a faint salty tang.
Looking up, a pure-white luxury yacht was moored quietly not far away. It shimmered with a soft light in the sparkling waves, an almost blindingly dazzling sight.
It was Jiang Silu’s first time on a speedboat, and the high speed made her a little scared and nervous.
Just then, Lu Fan took her hand and comforted her, "It’s okay. The drivers are all employees I handpicked myself. It’s very safe."
Hearing this, Jiang Silu felt a little more at ease.
But what surprised her most was that when her dad held her hand, she felt even more reassured than she had from his words.
Perhaps this was the natural sense of security and stability that came from a father!
This was a feeling Jiang Silu had never experienced in her entire life.
「Soon.」
They arrived in front of the yacht, only then realizing that the vessel before them was several times larger than the other boats by the pier.
The yacht’s streamlined hull was snow-white, and its polished metal railings gleamed with a cold light.
The bow was carved with simple reliefs, the gunwales were polished spotless, and even the reflection of the water’s ripples on its surface was perfectly clear.
The boarding deck was paved with high-grade, non-slip teakwood that felt firm and warm underfoot. Beside the glass doors at the entrance stood an exquisite metal lamp post.
"Come on, I’ll help you up," Lu Fan said with a smile.
He held Jiang Silu’s hand tightly, helping her get a firm footing on the deck.
As for the other three "little golden flowers," Chen He helped them all up by himself.
This was done so Jiang Silu could feel that her father didn’t dote on just anyone—only his daughter was worthy of his concern.
Following that, Lu Fan led the four young women into the yacht’s cabin.
Pushing the door open, the sheer luxury of the cabin was instantly overwhelming.
The high-ceilinged living room was furnished with an off-white leather sofa, its soft texture screaming its high price. A marble coffee table gleamed with a fine luster, on which sat a crystal fruit platter and imported drinks.
The floor-to-ceiling windows on one side were crystal clear, offering an unobstructed view of the seascape.
Exquisite downlights were embedded in the ceiling, casting a warm glow that made the entire space feel opulent yet understated.
Further in, there was an open bar with all kinds of imported liquors neatly arranged. The adjacent lounge area was furnished with chic rattan loungers, and there was even a small audiovisual room with what looked like top-of-the-line equipment.
The deck was even more spacious, furnished with rattan chaise lounges and small tea tables. There was a dedicated leisure platform at the stern, and even the life-saving equipment was of an exquisite, custom-made design. Every detail exuded a carefully polished luxury.
"Holy crap!! This is insane!" Lu Yao was the first to cry out.
Her eyes went wide as she touched the cool metal railing. "Lulu, your dad is so extravagant! This yacht is even more magnificent than the ones I’ve seen on TV!"
With that, she dashed straight for the leather sofa in the living room, plopped down, and even bounced a little. "Oh my god, this sofa is so soft! It’s just like the one in the presidential suite!"
Song Miaomiao followed behind, her steps timid. She clutched her backpack strap tightly, her eyes wide as saucers. freeweɓnovel.cѳm
She hadn’t dared to blink since boarding, her mouth slightly agape, a look of pure, unworldly astonishment on her face. freёwebnovel.com
She stepped gingerly on the teakwood floor, as if afraid of breaking it. Looking at everything inside the cabin, she was completely stunned. ’Is... is this a luxury yacht? This is the first time I’ve seen such a beautiful boat. It’s a hundred times more beautiful than I ever imagined...’
As for Liu Shiting, although she had been out to sea and on some decent yachts before, she too was stunned standing on this vessel. Any trace of composure had vanished from her face.
Her gaze swept over the cabin’s decor and the deck’s layout. Compared to this, the yachts she’d been on before were practically little fishing boats.
The three roommates’ cries of amazement mingled together. Lu Yao darted about the living room, touching this and that. One moment she was pressed against the floor-to-ceiling windows looking at the sea, the next she was peering curiously over the bar.
Song Miaomiao was drawn to the loungers on the deck. She sat down gingerly, her hand gently stroking the chair’s surface, her eyes sparkling.
Meanwhile, Liu Shiting stood by the gunwale, examining the details of the hull and murmuring constant praise.
Jiang Silu watched their jubilant reactions. Although this was also her first time on such a luxurious yacht, she suppressed her own excitement and instead felt a secret sense of joy.
’Because I wanted to see the sea, Dad bought a luxury yacht.’
