A second chance with my billionaire husband-Chapter 1709 - 372: When One Rises to Power, All Benefit (Twenty-Second Update)_2

Uncle Lau said in a low voice, "Miss, I’ll take care of it."

"Hmm." The deep voice replied faintly, carrying a chill like ice that penetrated to the bone.

Uncle Lau dragged the limp Yellow Hair man away, leaving the compartment deathly silent. Perhaps it was this person’s overpowering cold aura that made everyone afraid to even breathe. Curious, investigative gazes cautiously landed on her, and recalling the bizarre scene just now, they couldn’t help but feel even more apprehensive.

"Uncle, thank you for saving me just now." A little girl ran up to Mingyue, her innocent and fearless eyes wide open as she spoke.

"Baby Girl..." The noblewoman looked over in concern, but it was too late to scoop the little girl into her arms.

Mingyue looked down at the little girl in front of her, her delicate eyebrows gently furrowed. "What did you call me?"

"Uncle..., hehe, when I grow up I want to marry someone as amazing as you, who can chase away the bad guys instantly, then no one would bully me." The little girl said with pure innocence.

Mingyue’s mouth twitched slightly, wondering, do I really look that much like a man?

"Sorry, she’s just a child and doesn’t know how to talk properly. Please don’t be offended." The noblewoman pulled the little girl back and apologized awkwardly.

"It’s fine." How could she possibly hold a grudge against a child?

The noblewoman hesitated for a moment and then carefully took out a business card from her bag, handing it over cautiously: "This is my business card. If you ever need anything, you can come to this address. You saved my daughter’s and my lives, and we will remember this kindness forever."

"No need." The cold voice, as indifferent as ever, was so aloof it seemed unapproachable.

The woman’s smile froze for a moment, then she quickly added: "My name is Lin Feier, I’m the president of Len Group, headquartered in Country F. If you ever visit Country F, I’d like to treat you to genuine Country F cuisine."

Len Group is a world-renowned cosmetics company, ranked in the top ten of global brand value, leading the global cosmetics market, with widespread influence, especially among women, who know all the cosmetic brands under Len as they do family treasures. As the president of Len, Lin Feier often appears in financial and fashion magazines and has even been listed in the global top 100 influential people. Len Group was founded by her father, who has always been a legend, being a Hua person who rose from humble beginnings to establish the company through his intelligence and effort, marrying the daughter of an F noble family, a relationship that left many envious. The classic perfume under this brand was specially created by her father as a gift to commemorate his love for her mother. After Lin Feier took over the company, she expanded it significantly, and her name is well-known worldwide.

However, the person in front of her remained unresponsive, as if she didn’t know what meeting the president of Len meant.

This true calmness left Lin Feier somewhat frustrated. Her mother was one of the last surviving nobles in Country F, making her a top-tier figure in the societal pyramid, known globally. Yet in front of this person, all her past glory and honor turned to bubbles, worthless in this individual’s eyes.

Lin Feier returned to her seat holding her daughter, but in her heart, she wondered what this person’s identity could be.

Soon, Uncle Lau returned, the matter perfectly resolved, with air marshals having taken over those people.

"How much longer?" Mingyue asked softly.

Uncle Lau glanced at his watch, "Approximately seven hours more. After disembarking, we’ll have to transfer flights, and we can reach the destination by the morning after tomorrow. Once there, we’ll need to hire ships and sailors for travel. That sea area rarely sees any footprints, so finding the destination will be quite difficult."

Mingyue’s eyebrows furrowed tightly.

Lin Feier had been eavesdropping on their conversation, and as she happened to have particularly sensitive ears, she heard them discussing hiring a ship, so she quickly said, "My husband is in the shipping business. If you need to hire a ship, just let me know, and we’ll take you anywhere."

Mingyue’s eyes narrowed slightly.

——

After drifting on the sea for about ten days, finally, they lost those pursuers, yet the ship was also running out of supplies. Normally, they would stop at the nearest harbor to resupply food and water for up to a month, but this time, an accident occurred. The storage hold took on seawater during an attack, causing the food to rot and mold. Only water remained to sustain basic life. Now, the ship had lost its course, floating aimlessly like a lost soul, leaving the people on board facing death.

"Maqi somehow heard rumors about treasure under the sea and took it seriously, deciding to venture out, leaving the sea area we often operated in. Who knew we’d run into that warship? Originally, we didn’t want conflict, but Ors took action when we were unprepared, ruining everything." Dylan said solemnly.

Initially, Dylan was opposed to Maqi’s treasure hunt, but he couldn’t change Maqi’s mind. Maqi, though lacking in other skills, was top-notch in greed and lust. Over the years, it was Dylan who had helped him secure his position as Boss. Now that Maqi was killed by Dylan, the crew respected him even more.

"The pressing task now is to find the route." Yun Miao glanced at the boundless ocean, his gaze calm enough.

After spending these days together, Dylan grew very trusting of him, laying out a map on the table in front of them, "This is a map we made ourselves. We were in this position before, but after the enemy’s attack, our direction was scrambled, and now we have no idea where we are."

For pirates like them, who spent three hundred sixty out of three hundred sixty-five days adrift, getting lost at sea was the easiest thing to happen. They had a set of skills for navigation, yet this time they miscalculated, drifting further away.

Yun Miao lightly tapped his finger on the table, saying in a deep voice, "Then calculate it."

Dylan responded in surprise, "Calculate?"

Yun Miao curled his lips. Everyone thought Yun Miao was a fool, but in fact, his brain contained thousands of mathematical formulas. As a math genius, calculating the relationship between course direction and angle to find the correct route was not difficult.

——

With Xuanxuan for company each day, time passed quickly.

The official appointment notice arrived, with Yan Nanmo succeeding Qin Zhongwen as the new leader.

On that day, the sky cleared, sweeping away the past gloom. Zhuang Xiyue, beautifully and elegantly dressed, couldn’t hide the smile on her face.

From today onward, she would be the most esteemed woman in Country Hua.

At the national banquet that night, Zhuang Xiyue wanted to bring Yun Ya with her, but Yun Ya refused.

Such formal occasions were not suitable for her attendance, and Yun Ya didn’t want to draw too much attention at this time. Since she hadn’t married into the Yan Family yet, she adhered to the principle of keeping a low profile and declined Zhuang Xiyue’s kind offer.

Zhuang Xiyue didn’t insist, and after tidying up, a car came to pick her up.

The Yan Family seemed to be affected by this as well, with every servant in the house appearing proud and rejuvenated, as if sharing in the glory.

Yun Ya sat with Old Master Yan for a while. The elderly man, given his age, enjoyed having his descendants around. Xuanxuan’s well-behaved nature won his affection, and he cherished this child’s experience, showing Xuanxuan much love.
