Chapter 186: Love Goes Too Fast Like a Tornado
"I am truly sorry!"
The captain bowed to Rin again and said, "We will keep these three troublemakers locked up and hand them over to the authorities when we reach our destination. I hope this doesn’t spoil your enjoyment, esteemed guests."
The burly man, who was making a scene, finally realized that things were not going well. It was clear from the captain’s tone and words that he had picked the wrong fight.
There are only a few top VIP tickets for the ship, and they can’t be bought with just money; only truly important people have the privilege.
This is an unwritten rule for all large cruise ships, except for the royal cruise liner.
He felt a lump in his throat, never expecting to encounter a situation straight out of a storybook where a prince or nobility would travel incognito.
If the guild members found out he had provoked such a person, there was no way they would protect him anymore; he would be in big trouble.
With that in mind, he quickly softened his stance, tears in his eyes as he pleaded, "Young master, I didn’t know you were a distinguished guest on this ship. I made a mistake, please forgive me. I promise not to bother you again."
The other two also begged for forgiveness, no longer acting tough as before.
To be honest, since coming to this new world, Rin felt that his status was truly a double-edged sword.
Many times, you don’t need to take action yourself. Just showing off a bit can make others back off. You don’t need to reveal your identity to take advantage of the situation.
Of course, there are downsides too. If you show off too much, out of ten people, nine might secretly badmouth you for various reasons.
"Take these three rats away, don’t dirty my eyes here. So annoying, why do I always run into troublemakers."
With a rude curse, raising his chin arrogantly, looking around, his proud and fierce appearance scattered the onlookers like birds.
"Are these two girls accomplices or something?"
A sailor approached the huddled green-haired twins, at this moment the two only needed to be seen as victims.
Due to their conflicting identities and some past reasons, the twin sister had a stress reaction and directly pulled out a small dagger to protect her younger sister.
"Abby, calm down, everything will be fine."
The younger sister quickly grabbed her sister’s hand, comforting her in a low voice.
"Hey, little girl, we’re just asking some questions, why do you look like that?"
The sailor also became impatient, reaching out to grab the girl. Abby resisted fiercely, but she was no match for these selected sailors trained to protect the ship. Unable to directly harm her, the sailor staggered and fell in front of Rin.
Rin looked down at the fallen girl and instinctively reached out his hand towards her.
Abby rubbed her head, looking somewhat dazed at the young man’s outstretched hand, and a hint of concern in his clear eyes.
Whether it was the sunlight through the window or the light from the chandelier, a halo of light shone on the young man’s fair face, making him look like a handsome boy from a painting.
Her heart suddenly beat faster, feeling a bit embarrassed for the first time, but subconsciously reaching out to grab his hand.
At this moment, Rin also felt that his actions were not in line with those of a typical villain. After helping her up, he immediately let go of her hand, wiping his handkerchief while showing his trademark French disdain.
Abby was puzzled by his sudden change in behavior, but still whispered, "Uh… thank you."
"Don’t think I’m being nice, I just found you in my way when I came out for a walk and encountered this situation."
Rin complained, "These two lowly commoners have nothing to do with those three mice. Don’t waste time here, Waste Hero. Let the person go. Stupid bat, go away."
"Oh, that’s it? I thought there would be more excitement."
Sha Ye smacked her lips and hurried to catch up with Rin, while Emilia glanced at Abby, who was still staring blankly at Rin’s back. She shook her head slightly but didn’t say anything, and followed Rin, grabbing his hand.
The atmosphere instantly quieted down. The sailors escorted the three troublemakers away, and the onlookers dispersed, leaving only a pair of twin sisters.
Younger sister Ella approached and held her older sister’s hand, asking with concern, "Are you okay, sister?"
"Um… um."
She nodded somewhat dazedly, then suddenly felt a sharp pain in her head. She quickly covered her head, feeling wronged, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Ella, what’s wrong!"
"It’s all because of my clumsy sister’s meddling… Well, it’s also my fault. I didn’t see the situation clearly and let my sister go ahead recklessly. From now on, I should handle these things."
Abby cleared her throat and said, "Let’s change the topic… Actually, I don’t think that boy is as bad as he seems."
Ella suddenly turned pale and asked, "Sister… what’s wrong with you?"
"Oh… nothing, he did help us out, it wouldn’t be nice to repay him with hostility, hahaha."
Feeling a bit guilty, Ella scratched her head and tried to cover up with a forced smile.
Ella sighed, "Anyway, sister, don’t forget… don’t trust those people easily. This boy is different, with a strange and dangerous personality, it’s better not to get involved."
"Is that so? I just find it awkward."
"But what you said is right, sister. We shouldn’t be ungrateful, maybe he is not a bad person. At least, the girl with him doesn’t seem forced, judging by the way they hold hands, they seem like a couple…"
"*laughing sound*"
Suddenly, like giving up, Ella knelt on the ground, head hung and turning pale.
Abby smiled briefly but it quickly faded. She lovingly touched her sister’s head and asked, "What’s wrong?"
Ella looked up, showing a helpless smile. She reached into her waist and pulled out a purse, then suddenly cheered up and laughed heartily.
"Look what I found! We have money for dinner!"
"Huh? Is it…?"
"Exactly, I stole it from that tall guy earlier. He would never guess that I’m a thief. Let’s go and buy some wine!"
"Why do you suddenly want to drink?"
Ella’s smile faltered, "Consider it… hmm, a tribute to something that disappeared before it arrived, hehe!"
The two sisters hugged each other closely and left arm in arm.
…
"Little one, should we let those three guys go like this?"
Upon hearing Sha Ye’s words, Rin paused in his steps. "What do you want to do?"
"I reckon once they get ashore, you can’t reveal your identity. They’ll just go around the guard post and come back out. Isn’t this punishment too light? It’s better if they get a few months in bed from a good beating."
"Since you know, can’t you handle things yourself? Why do you have to ask me about everything? Are you my pet bat?"
Upon hearing this, Scarlet Leaf was unsure whether to first exchange insults with the little one or follow orders and then go beat up the rascals.
