There were many fishing boats docked on the harbor, but there was only one luxury cruise with a lounge, restaurant, and other facilities in the cabin.
It takes about three hours to get from Haigang City’s Port D to Mara Island. After 9 PM, you had to either hire your own boat or wait an hour for another cruise.
Mara Island’s hospitality was big, but this also shows that Mara Island Casino wasn’t short of customers
Zhuang Boshan, Le Xiao, and their group were stopped, and they can only watch Lu Ting leave on the cruise first.
Even though Lu Ting was the grandson of the richest man in the country, Zhuang Boshan’s background wasn’t bad either. His father owned e-commerce companies around the world, and he could also reach the top three in the country’s wealth value ranking.
In the past few years, only the Lu family was able to sit firmly on the throne of the wealth ranking.
And this year, second and third place went to the Li family and the Zhuang family respectively, and the ranking differs every year. Last year, the Zhuang family fell down two ranks, but after struggling for a year, they finally went back up into the top three.
But of course, in a sense, Zhuang Boshan can’t compare with Li Xing and Lu Ting at all.
These two were the only sons of big families and the sole heirs. Meanwhile, Zhuang Boshan’s family has four brothers. Even though he was the youngest, the company was now in the hands of his eldest brother. Under the support of his family, he started Maice Media to enter the entertainment industry, but he couldn’t surpass Li Xing who was even younger than him.
That competition did piss him off.
Zhuang Boshan wasn’t fond of Lu Ting and Li Xing to begin with, but these two people just had to support the artist that he gave up on in the past hand in hand and even push her up into the position of Film Empress.
Wasn’t that just a huge slap to his face?
When he watched Lu Ting get onto the only cruise to Mara Island at the moment, he was so angry that he couldn’t say anything.
What kind of dog shit gold card? How come he never heard of it before? If Lu Ting had money to buy the gold card, then shouldn’t he? What kind of joke is this?
The more he thought about it, the angrier Zhuang Boshan felt. While waiting for his assistant to call another ship over, he still wasn’t able to swallow his anger.
When he got on the ship and entered the lounge, he kicked the coffee table.
His assistant lit a cigar for him, and he took a puff before saying, “Damn that Lu Ting. Not capable of doing anything other than spending his old man’s money. Wang Cheng, when we get to the island, go to the cashier station and ask them how much it costs to get a gold card.”
The assistant nodded and answered with a “yes”.
When Zhuang Boshan kicked the counter, the young girl, Liu Xue, was so shocked that she hid behind her mother, peeking out half her face to observe him.
The man took another puff and beckoned Le Xiao. “Xiaoxiao, don’t just stand around. Sit for a while.”
Le Xiao immediately pulled her daughter over to the chairs and sat down.
Her daughter was clutching onto her neck and was looking at Zhuang Boshan as if he were a monster. Probably noticing the girl’s not-too-friendly gaze on him, Zhuang Boshan beckoned the girl, “Xiao Xue, come over here to Uncle’s side.”
The girl kept her arms around her mother’s neck, not letting go.
But Le Xiao pushed the girl down in front of Zhuang Boshan and scolded her quietly, “Hey, Uncle is calling you. Go over there now.”
Only then did Liu Xue walk timidly over.
Zhuang Boshan picked her up and put her on his lap, exhaling a puff of smoke near her cheek and saying to Le Xiao, “Xiaoxiao, your girl has a good appearance. She’s got nice and pretty genes. Are you interested in making her a child star? I can sign her and train her up well.”
“This…She doesn’t have that talent, Mr. Zhuang. You praise her too highly,” Le Xiao said.
