My Waste Husband -
Chapter 1156
Chapter 1156
Before the ship docked, Sister Hui knocked and opened Henry's door. She glanced at Henry, who was still dressed in his chef uniform, and said disgustedly, "What are you still in there for? Have you been enjoying yourself too much? Get out of there!"
Henry looked into the corridor and asked, "Are the tourists ready to leave?"
"They're all on the deck, only you are still here. Why, are you planning to live here forever? Ever look at yourself in the mirror?" Sister Hui crossed her arms over her chest and glanced sideways. "Just leave. What are you still doing here? Does it look like you have anything to pack in here?"
Henry did not know why the woman had been targeting him. He had told her that he earned the right to stay in the VIP room through his own abilities, but apparently that was not enough. However, Henry did not have the time to think that much. The cheetah and chameleon men were still on the ship. Once he leaves the VIP lounge, the two men would be on him like bees to honey, always stalking him closely behind.
Just as Henry had expected, as soon as he walked out of the VIP lounge, the chameleon and cheetah men appeared by his side, and the three of them even walked side by side.
"Young man, you are pretty good at running!" the chameleon man stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. He gave off a sense of cold-bloodedness. After all, his genes were mixed with the genes of a cold-blooded animal.
The cheetah man sneered, his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Now that they were surrounded by ordinary people, they could not do anything to Henry. However, it was perfectly fine to keep a good eye on Henry.
Henry shrugged his shoulders and said, "Guys, you've been waiting for so many days. Are you still confident that you can take me away?"
"Hah." The cheetah sneered. "Henry, you don't have to scare us. Too many people want to see us taking you down and open Justus' tomb, whatever that lies within it would make one's heart burn with desire. A single party would not be able to consume it all, so who would care if the Alvin League had the first bite of cake?"
"Interesting." Henry stretched his body. "But I'm curious about this, what makes you so sure that something lies in the tomb of the Master Lu? Have you ever thought that if the tales of the tomb were just myths and actually had nothing in it, what would happen to the Alvin League? I'm afraid that many can't wait to use this as an excuse to attack the Alvin League. After all, the tale of the tomb of Master Lu is just a myth, but the Recluse Association would then be the cake that everyone would like to take a bite of."
"What becomes of the Alvin League is none of your business, Henry, let me remind you once more." The cheetah man reached out and patted Henry on the shoulder. "Now be sensible, and honestly tell me all that you know, then you shall not suffer. You know you can't escape this time."
"Humph." Henry curled his lips and strode to the deck.
At that time, many tourists had already boarded the deck, patiently waiting for the yacht to dock.
"Zhang, when did you get here? I spent a lot of time looking for you, I even thought you'd gone without saying goodbye. Your Sister Hui said that she went to your room and didn't see you in there. Ha, ha, ha." loud laughter sounded, Mr. Dong strode over with several bodyguards by his side.
Sister Hui held on to Mr. Dong's arm, following him closely. Based on Mr. Dong's words, it was apparent that Sister Hui did not tell Mr. Dong about Henry's whereabouts and even made up some stories.
Henry did not expose Sister Hui's actions. He just greeted Mr. Dong.
Mr. Dong strode over and said, "Don't you run around, young man. There are too many people at the port. I'll have a car prepared, just come with me later. We'll go to the hotel first. The registration ceremony will be held in the afternoon, then the competition shall begin tomorrow."
The cruise ship was docked at the third port city of Yan Xia, Pingjin.
Speaking of Pingjin, many people even made the effort to travel there to buy cars, as they could purchase a brand new car at a very reasonable price, which also led to the fact that this was a place where both the good and bad gathered, people of all sorts may appear here.
Henry nodded and walked towards Mr. Dong.
The chameleon and cheetah men, who had been following beside Henry, were about to make their move when they were stopped by two bodyguards of Mr. Dong.
The cheetah and chameleon man glanced at each other, not saying anything, nor did they launch an attack. They just followed by the sides quietly.
Soon, the steam whistle of the cruise ship sounded again, which meant the ship was docked completely. All the tourists began making their way off the ship.
Henry followed Mr. Dong to a special passage for VIPs. The cheetah and chameleon men were unable to go through it normally, so they directly flipped over the side of the ship and made their way down, ignoring the strange gazes of others. Although they would be labelled as uncivilised beings, it was still better than losing Henry.
A Mercedes-Benz sedan had already been parked in the parking lot of the port. Henry hopped on and followed Mr. Dong to a hotel called Era of Peace.
Mr. Dong told Henry that the owner of the hotel also used to be a chef, and that the hotel has had a long history. The Mengbaton competition would be held there this time.
"In the past, competitions like this would all be held overseas, but I'm not sure why this year's competition is held in Yan Xia, and I even heard that it would always be in Yan Xia in the future, that would save us the trouble of travelling."
Mr. Dong smiled and arranged a room for Henry. After informing Henry to sign up in the lobby at seven o'clock in the evening, he went on to tend to other businesses.
As soon as Mr. Dong left, the cheetah and chameleon men appeared once again in Henry's sight.
The cheetah man was far away from Henry. He made a gesture of slitting the throat with his hand.
Henry bared his teeth at the cheetah, then turned around and walked to the room Mr. Dong had prepared for him.
Due to the upcoming cooking competition, many people were gathered in the Era of Peace. Even in the aisles of the room, people were always moving to and fro. This created a natural barrier for Henry.
Henry stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window of his room. He could see the view of the vast open sea from there.
A colourless lotus emerged slowly on the top of Henry's head. His expression was plain, but there was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes. With careful observation, one would notice that Henry was trembling with excitement.
A storm was coming!
The two days of peace at sea had allowed Henry to finish his preparations completely, but at the same time, those two days bored him. He always lived between life and death, and had always lived that kind of environment since he was a child. Battle had always been what Henry truly desired!
The white clouds floated by slowly in the sky, proving that time was passing by.
At five o'clock in the evening, someone knocked on Henry's door.
Henry saw Sister Hui standing at his door when he opened it.
"What's the matter?" Henry frowned when he saw this lady. Although this woman's words and actions would not bring him any trouble, the sight of her still annoyed Henry.
Sister Hui was obviously not expecting that Henry would give her such an expression, which made her feel a little angry. This man eats and lives off them, yet he has the audacity to show her such impatience?
