    Trantor: Dragon Boat Trantion Editor: Dragon Boat Trantion


    In the following two days, Zhou Chao and the others revisited the Avenue of Stars, taking the Star Ferry across Victoria Harbour. They decided to return to this ce possibly because it had previously been recognized as one of the “50 Must-See Destinations in a Lifetime” by National Geographic Magazine.


    They had been to the top of Victoria Peak, taking the cable car and gazing at the beautiful scenery of Hong Kong Ind from the Sky Terrace. They also visited popr Instagram-worthy spots like Rainbow Estate. Basically, wherever there was some fame and fun on Hong Kong Ind, Zhou Chao and his group explored it.


    “All, lying down is sofortable. These past few days, 1 feel like I’ve walked a marathon!” Zhou Chao reclined on the sofa, feelingpletely at ease.


    “Second Brother, you mentioned that the cruise ship was supposed to arrive at Hong Kong Ind recently, right? It’s already the 3rd, and it’s not here yet. If it doesn’t arrive on time, we might miss it!” Li Yang, who was also sitting on the sofa, furrowed his brow.


    “No need to worry; it should arrive on time. Typically, when we board the cruise ship and return from Hong Kong Ind to Modu, it only takes about three or four days. So, you can rest assured; time won’t be a problem!” Li Yang’sforting words reassured them. After all, they couldn’t determine when the cruise ship would show up in front of them.


    “Wow, Shen Lan, look at that! Such a huge ship!” Suddenly, Jiang Li, sitting on a balcony chair, eximed loudly. Both men in the room couldn’t help but sit up from the sofa.


    “Really, it’s enormous!” Shen Lan also marveled at the cruise ship sailing on the sea.


    Upon hearing the two women, Zhou Chao probably had an idea. He got up from the sofa and gestured toward the balcony, signaling Li Yang. “Didn’t you keep talking about it earlier? Look, it’s here!”


    Li Yang, upon hearing this, quickly got up and joined Zhou Chao by the window. There, they saw an enormous cruise ship slowly making its way toward Victoria Harbour.


    The four of them sat on the balcony, watching as the ship sailed slowly. It took approximately 20 minutes for the cruise ship to finally dock at Victoria Harbour.


    In less than two minutes after the ship had docked, Zhou Chao’s phone, which he had ced on the table, began to ring.


    Zhou Chao swiftly walked over to check the caller ID, nodded to Li Yang, and answered the call.


    “Hello, Bieber!”


    “Boss, I’ve arrived at Hong Kong Ind!”


    “I just saw the Independence of the Seas sail into Victoria Harbour!” Zhou Chao stood in front of the window, looking at the massive ship docked in Victoria Harbour.


    “Boss, when will you arrive? I can make arrangements then!” Upon hearing Bieber’s inquiry, Zhou Chao nced at the others and thought for a moment.


    “I’lle in the afternoon, and 1’11 be with my friends!”


    “All right, Boss!” Zhou Chao ended the call and turned to Li Yang, who was eagerly waiting.


    “Alright, let’s get ready. Well go to Victoria Harbour in the afternoon, and well spend the night on the ship!”


    “Yeah!” Zhou Chao initially thought that Jiang Li and Shen Lan would be the happiest about this n, but unexpectedly, Li Yang’s excitement overwhelmed the two women.


    Zhou Chao looked at hispanions, chuckled, and shook his head.


    “Let’s go back and pack. After lunch, well head out!” Li Yang and Shen Lan followed Zhou Chao to their respective rooms.


    Around noon, after the four of them had their final Cantonese meal at the hotel, they returned to their rooms with joyous hearts.


    “Boss, didn’t you forget to inform Uncle Liu toe and pick up the car? You’re not thinking of bringing it back to Modu, are you?” Li Yang suddenly remembered that they hadn’t arranged for the car yet.


    He quickly took out his phone and called Uncle Liu.


    “Hello, Young Master Li!”


    “Uncle Liu, we’re nning to leave Hong Kong Ind today. I’ll return the car to you. When will youe over?”


    “Young Master Li, I’m currently at the cargo yard. You can leave the key at the hotel front desk, and I’ll send someone to pick it up!”


    “Alright, thank you, Uncle Liu!”


    Li Yang hung up the phone and turned to Zhou Chao. “Uncle Liu will personallye to pick up your cargo. You can just leave it at the hotel front desk.”


    Zhou Chao nodded in acknowledgment, “Since everything is arranged, let’s get ready to go!”


    Zhou Chao and Li Yang each pulled a suitcase, and the four of them left the hotel. Li Yang left the car key at the hotel front desk, leaving Uncle Liu’s contact information.


    The group walked towards Victoria Harbour, which wasn’t too far away. It took them about 20 minutes to reach their destination.


    “Second Brother, how do we board the ship?” The group stood at Victoria Harbour, gazing at the Independence of the Seas, which was not far from the port.


    “I’ll call them toe pick us up!” Zhou Chao immediately called Bieber.


    The phone rang twice, and the call was answered on the other end.


    “Boss, have you arrived at the port?”


    “Yeah, I’m here. I have four people with me. Can you send someone to pick us up?”


    “Alright, Boss, 1’11 arrange it right away!” Bieber hung up the phone. Shortly after, a speedboat raced over from the cruise ship and slowly stopped in front of them.


    “May 1 ask who is Mr. Zhou Chao?” A middle-aged man in a captain’s uniform, apanied by two sailors, approached Zhou Chao and the others.


    “I am,” Zhou Chao stepped forward and replied.


    “Boss, nice to meet you! I’m First Officer Lambo of the Independence of the Seas. Please follow me.” Lambo, followed by two sailors who took their luggage, led Zhou Chao and his group onto the speedboat.


    “Wow, this looks amazing!” As the speedboat approached the cruise ship, Li Yang and the others felt increasingly small. In no time, they reached the side of the cruise ship and boarded from there.


    Captain Bieber, who had been waiting for them, watched as Zhou Chao and his group boarded the ship. He walked over quickly, and the first officer Lambo gave him a knowing look, signaling that Zhou Chao was the boss.


    “Boss!” Captain Bieber greeted Zhou Chao respectfully as he approached.


    “Hello, Bieber!” Zhou Chao extended his right hand, and Bieber shook it. After a moment, they let go.


    “Boss, this way, please! I’ve already arranged your rooms for you.” Bieber led Zhou Chao and the others to the top floor using the internal elevator. This floor featured specially designed luxurious suites, with only six of them avable.


    “Boss, this is a suite of over 100 square meters, and it can amodate up to six people at once.” Zhou Chao entered the room that Bieber had opened, and indeed, it was quite spacious with three bedrooms, arge living room, a bar counter, and arge balcony.


    “Yes, it’s great! You can go ahead and attend to your duties. I’ll call you if I need anything.” Zhou Chao looked around and felt very satisfied with the amodations.


    Upon hearing this, Bieber left the room with the first officer and sailors. Meanwhile, Jiang Li and Shen Lan, seeing that outsiders had left, began to explore the room.


    “This is amazing! It’s so delightful to feel the sea breeze on this balcony!” Jiang Li stood at the railing with her arms outstretched, savoring the sea breeze. Zhou Chao, seeing the scene, thought of a beautiful moment and quickly walked up to embrace Jiang Li from behind, holding her waist.


    “Hey, you two, can you be a bit more discreet?” Li Yang’s words directly shattered the romantic atmosphere.


    “Ahem, we’ll go back to our room and freshen up first. Later, we’ll go out and explore the cruise ship to see what activities it has!”


    Zhou Chao and Li Yang nced at each other and then chose their preferred rooms, each taking their luggage back to their rooms..
