Chapter 1155
In the darkness, the sound of the crack was exceptionally loud in the silence of the VIP lounge.
The security guard at the entrance of the VIP lounge jumped up from his slumber instantly.
"What was that!"
Heavy footsteps could be heard rushing over immediately.
Henry swiftly shut the door.
The cheetah and chameleon man stared at the door that mmed shut at their faces, still unable to
react to it.
After nearly two seconds, the cheetah suddenly realised what was going on reached out to drag the
chameleon with him. "Let''s go!"
The two of them ran quickly towards the depths of the VIP lounge.
When the group of security guards hurried over and saw the ss of the painting broken, they were
all shocked. As security guards of the VIP lounge, they naturally knew how expensive the items in
there were. Even before they had been appointed their positions, they had already been educated
about it in their training.
It was a famous painting worth millions of yuan. They could not even afford to pay for it even one of
its broken corners.
"What happened?" the security captain was extremely nervous as he looked at the broken ss.
"Captain, it would seem that a thief has infiltrated the area. Look, there are footprints on the
ground!" A security guard pointed at the expensive carpeting under his feet. The indents in the
carpet caused by the footsteps were still fresh and had not returned to its original state.
"A thief! Hurry, go inform the others who are sleeping, wake them up and have them work overtime
tonight. Search the whole area, make sure nothing is lost!" The security captain shouted, "Stay alert
tonight! If anything goes wrong, everyone would be in trouble!"
When Henry, who was at the door in his room, heard that, he breathed a sigh of relief. Although he
hadpletely exposed himself to the cheetah and chameleon man, the both of them were unable
to do anything for the time being. As long as Henry remained in his room, he would be safe.
The footsteps outside the door never stopped that night, and neither the cheetah nor chameleon
man appeared again.
When dawn had risen, someone knocked on the door of Henry''s room.
As soon as Henry opened the door, he came to face with the angry re of the beautiful Sister Hui.
"Tell me, what did you dost night?!" Sister Hui questioned him.
"I''ve been in the room the whole time."
"In the room?" Sister Hui scanned Henry with doubtful eyes. "I warning you to tell the truth. I''ll give
you onest chance. Tell me where you''ve been yesterday!"
"No matter how many chances you give me, my answer will always be: I was in the room." Henry
was starting to get a little impatient with the woman. "Is there anything else you''d like to know? If
you''re done here, I''d like to go back to rest."
Upon hearing that, Sister Hui lost it immediately. "Do you know where you stand? You eat and live
off us, yet now you dare to show impatience?"
Henry smiled and replied, "First of all, Mr. Dong promised to let me stay here. Secondly, I''m not just
living off you people, I resolved the issues of the kitchen yesterday, and even taught the chefs some
cooking techniques. With all that I''ve done, I absolutely deserve to stay in this room for one night.
Do you understand now?"
After saying that, Henry mmed the door shut.
Sister Hui stared at the door that had been closed in her face. Her chest heaved with anger. She
raised her hand again, ready to knock on the door once more.
"Hui, that''s enough!" Mr. Dong''s voice rang from beside.
Sister Hui looked at Mr. Dong who was walking over to her and said loudly, "Mr. Dong, why did you
stop me? Our ship has been at sea for so long, yet no trouble has ever happened, but ever since
this guy appeared here yesterday, we''ve encountered thievesst night, and the surveince
cameras were all cked out, and the spot of the incident was also closest to where he was
staying. Isn''t it all obvious?"
"That''s enough. Don''t say so much." Mr. Dong said, somewhat dissatisfied, "A capable person
wouldn''t do things of that sort. I trust him."
"You trust him?" Sister Hui looked puzzled. "Mr. Dong, I really don''t understand why you agreed to
let him stay in the VIP lounge. Look at him, looking like a peasant. Is he even eligible to stay in the
VIP lounge? Seeing him living off us for free just pisses me off."
"All right, all right." Mr. Dong smiled and went over to grab Sister Hui by the hand. "Hui, he''s not
living off us for free. He has already paid for his stay with his efforts in the kitchen yesterday. Let''s
have breakfast, I made you your favourite meal."
"Mr. Dong, I don''t care. I''ll tell right here and right now. I think the thief fromst night is him. I really
don''t understand. What right does he have to represent in participating in thatpetition? My
brother has also been learning under your guidance for such a long time. He can totally..."
"This, you don''t have to understand." Mr. Dong waved his hand and said, "I''ve been cooking for
years. I can see that your brother''s skills are still far from being good enough. You shall not
participate in this matter."
Sister Hui still wished to add on, but when she saw the unquestionable look on Mr. Dong''s face, she
swallowed her words. "Fine, Mr. Dong, but there''s still something I have to tell you. You''re a grown
man, stop being so softhearted. If there are things you can''t bring yourself to say, then I shall say it
for you. Didn''t he say that he''ll give you an answer today? If he disagrees to help you, I''ll chase him
out of the VIP lounge immediately. If he agrees to your request and you wish for him to stay here, I''ll
make sure to arrange for him to be guarded by a few security guards!"
After saying that, Sister Hui shook off Mr. Dong''s arm and strode forward.
Staring at the back of Sister Hui, Mr. Dong shook his head helplessly.
Henry, who was in the room, heard all of Sister Hui''s words. He did not get angry. The painting
frame that had been broken the night before was indeed his doing. Although the surveince
cameras were ruined by the chameleon man, but that also had to do with him.
Henry was not angry at all. On the contrary, he was even secretly happy. If the woman did ask for
security guards to watch over him, that would be great. That way, he could rest well from then on.
About ten minutester, someone came looking for Henry. It was a security guard.
"Mr. Dong told me to request for your decision regarding that matter."
Henry knew that this man had been arranged to ask him this by Sister Hui without even having to
think. He nodded and replied, "Tell Mr.Dong that I agree to his request."
The security guard did not say anything. A few minutester, Henry heard sounds of multiple
footsteps, that eventually stopped at his door, He opened the door and took at nce. There were
at least four security guards standing guard in front of his room.
Henry was relieved to see that. He closed the door and went intoplete recovery mode.

If Henry stayed there, no one would be able to disturb him at all, no one would care if Henry had
eaten or not too. Henry could not be more happy.
Two days had gone by, Henry had been sitting on the ground with his legs crossed.
The sound of the steam whistle of the ship sounded suddenly. Henry opened his eyes. He knew that
this whistle meant that it was about to arrive at its destination.
After two days of recovering, Henry was now fighting fit. He was confident that if he fought the
cheetah man face-to-face again, even though he would not be able to take on the cheetah man''s
explosive-form directly, he was not afraid of the cheetah man''s normal form.
This was a huge progress for Henry, who had been defeated by the cheetah man while he was in
his normal form.
Henry got up and did some stretches, then went to the window of the room. He inhaled deeply as
he watched the port nearing, a fight would happen again really soon.
