Crossing to the Future, it's Not Easy to Be a Man Chapter 618

They changed into a more formal attire and came to the dance hall at the highest level of the s.h.i.+p . They were obedient and arrived before the starting time .

Not many people were in the dance hall at this time . The Feiyang s.h.i.+p had four levels in total . The lowest level was where the crew of the s.h.i.+p stayed . There was also a huge storage area to keep any bulky objects the pa.s.sengers might have . Ling Lan and her team member's mechas were hidden among the other items in the storage .

The second level was where the accommodations for ordinary pa.s.sengers and the dining halls were located at . There was an entertainment s.p.a.ce for the ordinary pa.s.sengers and it even had login pods . However, it was very expensive to rent a login pod . Ordinary pa.s.sengers would not be able to afford it .

The third level was where high-cla.s.s people stayed . There were also better facilities on this level . It was said that there was a high-end restaurant on the third level . Wealthy people would choose to eat there and not go to the dining halls . Although the smaller dining halls had better food items, it was still not up to their standards too .

Besides Lingtian, the other battle teams were on the third floor . Two of them had to protect the princess so they needed to stay next to her . The other three had the money so they stayed on the third floor too . They didn't want to be too far away from the princess either .

The fourth level consisted of a dance hall as well as a huge platform . The Feiyang s.h.i.+p was modified from a battles.h.i.+p . This platform was meant for mechas to land on the s.h.i.+p . However, they told the outside world that this was the place where bonfires and barbecues would be held at . This was a special privilege for the people boarding the Feiyang s.h.i.+p .

This was why many tourists were willing to pay the high price to board this s.h.i.+p . These entertainments were not available on other cruises . You get what you paid for .

There were dining areas around the dance hall . Many food trays had been placed on the dining tables that were covered with a white cloth . There were flowers placed around as decorations . It was beautiful .

On one of the tables, there were wine gla.s.ses stacked in the shape of a pyramid . Each of them was filled with different alcohols . The colorful lights shone on the gla.s.ses and the gla.s.ses glittered .

Ling Lan and Li Lanfeng reacted the quickest . They looked at the alcohol greedily .

Only Qi Long was not tempted . He asked in a puzzled tone, “Why did they have to make it so pretty? Can it be eaten? Why do they only fill up one-third of the cup? The organizers here are so stingy . ”

Everyone looked at him with contempt . It was such a waste to bring him here .

Gentle laughter sounded behind them . The six people turned around and saw three ladies in gowns laughing at them . When they saw Li Yingjie, their eyes lit up . They turned and looked at Ling Lan . They were shocked .

Ling Lan couldn't stand the intense gaze of the three ladies so she lowered her head in embarra.s.sment . This action made her even cuter . The three ladies were excited . He is so cute! I want to hug him!

Li Lanfeng felt his heart dropped . He smiled and said, “How do I address you all?”

The three ladies s.h.i.+fted their gazes to Li Lanfeng . The gente aura on Li Lanfeng caused them to lower their guards . One of the ladies smiled and replied, “We are from the Shun Feng Tourist Group . Where are you from?” Everyone took down the tourist group badge since they were coming for the dance party .

Li Lanfeng smiled brightly . They couldn't see his face but the friendly vibe that he was emitting left a good impression on the three ladies .

“Little Four, leopard's aura changed . ” Ling Lan immediately noticed the change in Li Lanfeng's aura . She pulled Little Four, who was having a whale of a time, back into her mindscape .

Little Four was helping the mainframe of the s.h.i.+p to resist against four batches of hackers . He didn't know if the hackers were on the same team or were acting individually . He realized that there were 5 advanced hackers and even one ace hacker on the s.h.i.+p . They made his life more interesting .

Little Four was naughty . He didn't cover up all the loopholes in the mainframe . He watched as the hacker hacked into the system . Once he was about to succeed and win against the mainframe, Little Four would step in and help . Every time the hackers thought that they had succeeded, they were stopped by Little Four . They were unwilling to give up and their stubbornness allowed Little Four to continue playing with them…

Little Four's mind was on the mainframe . Hence, he just glanced at Li Lanfeng and replied, “Yes, his Jack Sue ability was activated . ”

After so many years, Little Four finished all the books that Ling Lan read in her past life . He was able to use special phrases to describe certain things . He was so good at it that Ling Lan was amazed .

Mary Sue, Jack Sue, crazy b***h… everything came out of Little Four's mouth . Ling Lan was shocked at the start but now, she was used to it .

“The innate talent that allows other people to like him?” Ling Lan understood what Little Four was saying .

“Yes . Your leopard hasn't realize this innate talent yet so he can't control it completely . However, when he has a strong desire, it would get activated,” Little Four explained .

Ling Lan narrowed her eyes . “You are saying that Li Lanfeng has a strong desire now?” She glanced at the three ladies . They all had heavy makeup on . She didn't think that they were pretty . Why would Li Lanfeng have strong desires towards them?

Little Four thought of something and exclaimed, “Boss, although the average lifespan of people in this world is 150 years, their age of maturity is the same as your original world . The people here just aged at an older age . Their youth is long . They spend more than a 100 years in their youth . ”

Ling Lan didn't manage to understand what Little Four meant . She glared at him, “Explain it properly . ”

Little Four touched his nose and said quickly, “Your leopard is in rut now . He will secrete his testosterone the moment he sees any females . ” Little Four immediately disappeared after he finished his sentence . He needed to run away before his boss reacted .

“Rut?” Ling Lan finally understood . Li Lanfeng had reached the age of falling in love . Her comrades were all grown up now . Ling Lan felt weird . She was emotional . If her comrades brought their girlfriends to show her next time, would she feel like a mother seeing her daugher-in-law?

Of course, Ling Lan had no other thoughts towards Li Lanfeng . She just felt a little sad that her friends started liking other girls . It was like giving her son up to other people .

Ling Lan felt that she had this feeling because Li Lanfeng's poor taste in women . Even if he liked someone, he should have a higher standard . Someone that looked like Luo Lang would be much better…

I'm sorry, Luo Lang . I drag you in again . Ling Lan apologized to Luo Lang in her heart . Luo Lang was just too pretty . Ling Lan had to admit that he was even prettier than some girls…

As for Luo Chao… Ling Lan didn't even think about her! Why? No one knew .

Li Lanfeng's Jack Sue… innate talent got activated so the three ladies became familiar with him instantly . However, his innate talent didn't seem powerful enough . The three ladies kept looking at Li Yingjie . Luckily, Ling Lan was forgotten by them .

Li Lanfeng was happy at this situation . He subtly talked about Li Yingjie . The three girls had an even better impression of Li Lanfeng . They even took him as their close friend and asked him to introduce Li Yingjie to them .

Li Lanfeng agreed immediately . In order to protect Ling Lan, he pushed his little brother from the Li family out .

The three girls knew that Li Yingjie was the wealthiest among the six people . While they were talking to Li Lanfeng, Qi Long and Zhao Jun wanted to take some food but they didn't dare to . Li Yingjie scoffed at them and then went up to take some food and wine for them .

Li Yingjie's calm and casual actions told the ladies that he was used to these parties . This meant that he had a good background . He was either a rich second generation or a member of an elite family . Whichever it was, he was a big fish to the ladies who were just normal commoners .

For a normal female commoner to climb up the social ladder, they had to either be good in their studies or be good in a certain field . Then, they would become a citizen . They might even rise up to become an elite and enjoy better privileges . Their children would also live a better life and obtain more opportunities as compared to commoners . Moreover, the resources available to a commoner restricted their learning and thus they were unable to compare themselves with the people from the other cla.s.ses . If they wanted to climb up the social ladder using this method, it would be difficult .

The other way was to awaken their innate talent before they were 16 years old . If their innate talent would be of help to the military, they would immediately become a citizen and enter the military . However, the probability of awakening their innate talent was too low . Even members of elite families couldn't be sure if they were able to awaken their innate talent before 16 years old . Hence, this path was hard too . Females were also physically weaker than males so it would be a miracle if someone managed to awaken their innate talent .

As compared to the first two ways, the last way was much easier . It was to find a big fish . There were many ways they could find this fish . The most popular way was to enter the military after they turned 16 years old and find a partner there .

Although many soldiers were commoners, their families were able to receive the benefits of a citizen due to their contribution to the country . Also, they had an idol who managed to achieve what every lady wanted . Hence, many ladies followed their idol's path and entered the military . Sob, they want to become the next Lan Luofeng too .

However, not every female had the right to enter the military . Some ladies were rejected due to their family or physical const.i.tution . They would give up their dreams and look for a normal job . After that, they would get married to a commoner and live a normal life . A small portion of these ladies were unwilling to give up and looked for other ways such as attending a galaxy tour group . This tour could allow them to fulfil their dreams or become a sacrifice for their dreams .

The three ladies had their eyes on Li Yingjie . This showed how well the other people disguised themselves . Besides Zhao Jun, the other five came from influential families . Ling Lan was even the son of Ling Xiao . She was like the prince of the military .

Ling Lan understood what Li Lanfeng wanted to do . She raised her eyebrows curiously . Is he trying to find a girlfriend for Li Yingjie? Shouldn't Li Yingjie take care of this himself? Why is Li Lanfeng so enthusiastic?

Li Lanfeng turned around as he felt Ling Lan's gaze . He smiled at her happily . Then, he pulled Li Yingjie to a corner . The three ladies followed them happily .

Zhao Jun saw this and followed them as well . Zhao Jun was like Li Lanfeng's brother . They lived together for so many years . Wherever Li Lanfeng was, Zhao Jun would be around too and vice-versa .

Unexpectedly, Lin Zhong-qing looked at Li Yingjie too . Ling Lan noticed a tinge of worry in his eyes . She was surprised . When did Lin Zhong-qing start worrying for Li Yingjie? Weren't they enemies? When did they become so close?

Ling Lan felt guilty when she realized this . Among her five companions who grew up with her, she gave Lin Zhong-qing the least attention . This was because he was always a responsible and serious person . He would take care of himself well so Ling Lan didn't have to worry about him . This made him forgettable at times . As compared to Qi Long and Luo Lang, she didn't show as much concern to Lin Zhong-qing at all .

Ling Lan felt sorry towards him . She said, “Let's go over too . ”

Lin Zhong-qing immediately smiled gently . Qi Long was eating his food when he heard this sentence . He quickly took a big plate and piled it high with all his favourite food items .

Ling Lan scanned her surroundings . There were not many people around . She felt relieved . At least she didn't embarra.s.s herself in front of too many people .

Qi Long carried two big plates and walked towards the corner where Li Lanfeng was at . Ling Lan and Lin Zhong-qing looked at him with disdain .

In another corner, two person sat in the dark . One of them retracted his gaze and took a sip of his wine .

“What did you notice?” The other person who was smoking asked him casually .

“Those three ladies… there is a problem with them,” The one who was drinking replied .

“They are only able to fool those little brats . Seems like there are quite a few factions here . We need to be careful . I wonder why they targeted those brats . ” The person smoking placed his fingers on his temple and went into deep thought .

The man drinking smiled . “They had no other choice . The tourist group they entered was a tourist group for couples . Those couples are all old . When those aunties saw them, they went on their guard and prevented them from interacting with their husbands . They couldn't lay their hands on the married men . The only people that were men and could be seduced are those six brats . ”

“Their objective is to go to the third floor . ” The man smoking replied, “Hence, they place their focus on the young master . ”

“This kind of young master who never experienced the outside world before is the easiest to seduce . ” The man drinking admired their ability to choose the right target .

“However, I am more interested in the person with the mask . Why did he help the three ladies? Did he realize something?” The person smoking frowned . He rubbed his temples . Every time he used his brain too much, his head would hurt .

“I don't think so . Don't you feel the strange aura around him?” The person drinking reminded his friend .

The one smoking looked over at Li Lanfeng . He was sitting beside the three ladies and having a delightful conversation with them . He seemed to be an old friend of theirs .

“You are saying that he…” The man smoking frowned .

“Maybe . Maybe not . Who knows?” The man drinking didn't give a definite answer . He didn't care about this as long as those people didn't affect their plans .

“Shall we inform our people to interrupt the three ladies?” The man smoking asked .

“No need . Isn't this interesting to watch? Let's see if the three ladies are able to win the heart of the young master . If they succeed in seducing the young master to bring them to the third floor, would the other brats be jealous of him? Will their friends.h.i.+p end there?” The man drinking was a s.a.d.i.s.tic person .

“You seemed free . Aren't you interested in the two teams of explorers on the third floor?” The man smoking looked at his friend with contempt .

“Those explorers… there is indeed something amiss with them but we can't just focus on them right now . We are still within the territory of the Huaxia Federation . No one would dare to make a move now . I want to complete my mission but I don't want to die with my opponents . Hence, I will entertain myself while we are still within the countries of the Huaxia Federation . ” The man drinking smiled as he raised his cup . “This is called having fun while working . ”

The man smoking waved his hand helplessly . “You can do what you like as long as you don't forget our motive . ”

The man drinking replied, “I won't . I still want to retire after I finish this mission . ”

Once he said this, the man smoking became silent . The man drinking turned serious too . He looked sad . They had been in this industry for a long time . Were they able to retire successfully?
