Tycoon Stepdad's Popularity (Part-1)

42 (ii)

His soft black hair and the corners of his clothes fluttered gently in the sea breeze, giving him a sense of freedom.

Such a Lin Yi seemed like a gentle morning breeze in the mountains or a lively, carefree spirit.

Someone you wanted to touch and possess.

After closing his eyes to feel the sea breeze for a while, Lin Yi slowly opened them.

He noticed the gaze beside him and instinctively turned his head, only to meet Huo Jihan's deep, dark eyes.

Those eyes seemed calm yet seemed to hold something indiscernible.

Lin Yi was stunned for a moment and then spoke, somewhat confused: "Mr. Huo?"

Huo Jihan responded: "Yes."

His tone was calm, making it impossible to discern his emotions just now.

But Lin Yi didn't intend to delve deeper.

Instead, he asked another question: "Mr. Huo, do you have any particular preferences in life? Of course, aside from work."

This was a genuine curiosity.

After all, Huo Jihan lived such a restrained and monotonous life, like a precise machine without any deviation or error.

Would such a person have anything special they desired?

Huo Jihan lifted his eyes: "Why ask suddenly?"

Lin Yi answered honestly: "Because you seem too controlled and calm, as if nothing can stir your emotions."

Imagine if someone else were in Huo Jihan's position; it would be a different scene, right?

A powerful person at the top of the pyramid would indulge in everything they wanted, wouldn't they?

But Huo Jihan, abstaining from alcohol and women, remained clear-headed and restrained, as if devoid of any worldly desires.

After hearing Lin Yi's words, Huo Jihan slowly said, "Not necessarily."

Lin Yi immediately perked up: "So, there are things you're interested in?"

Now, Lin Yi was genuinely curious, his beautiful, exquisite eyes shining with inquiry as he stared at Huo Jihan.

Huo Jihan looked into Lin Yi's unparalleled eyes and said slowly, "It might happen in the future."

Lin Yi: "Ah?"

He had expected an immediate answer, but instead, he got these few words.

Moreover, what did "it might happen in the future" mean? Was it because Huo Jihan himself wasn't sure yet?

Lin Yi took the opportunity to ask Huo Jihan, "Then which aspect are you more interested in? People, or something else?"

This way, he could make a rough judgment.

But Huo Jihan replied, "You'll know in the future."

Lin Yi: "..."

Alright then.

Sure enough, there was no way to get any information out of Huo Jihan.

At that moment, a melodious piano tune drifted over from not far away.

Lin Yi instinctively turned his head to look.

He saw a white piano on the deck nearby, with a pianist playing it.

Gradually, many people were drawn by the piano music and looked over.

Lin Yi remarked to Huo Jihan, "Your cruise ship really has everything, even a piano, and you even hired someone to play it."
