Chapter 265: 131, Lin Mo’s gradually twisted psychology, fortunately, there is a wise wife!_7
Li Jinwen gave a stiff smile, shook her head, and didn’t dare to move an inch, her body rigid with tension.
It was also her first time on a yacht, and she felt an inexplicable fear, exacerbated by the water on the deck, making her afraid of slipping. After all, she was pregnant and needed to be extra careful.
It wasn’t just her,
Lin Changshui and Xu Qin were hardly in a better state.
Though excited, as it was their first time on such a yacht and their first time at sea, they were both extremely nervous too.
“The best way to overcome fear is to face it!”
Lin Mo walked to the seating area, took Li Jinwen by the hand, and slowly led her to the edge of the deck, wrapping his arms gently around her waist, just like the protagonists of the Titanic.
“It’s okay, wife, I’ve got you, you won’t fall!”
“Woo!!!”
Li Jinwen tried closing her eyes, steeled her heart, and let out what might have been the loudest scream of her life.
“Woo!!!!!”
Feeling it wasn’t enough, she screamed again.
It truly felt amazing!
In the moment of shouting, the salty air rushed crazily into her mouth, as if it could momentarily make one forget all troubles.
Lin Mo had wanted to invite his parents to try it too, but alas, talking them into it proved futile, and he had to give up.
His father-in-law was eager to try, but his mother-in-law was not cooperating and wouldn’t let him wander off, leaving him no choice but to give up reluctantly.
However, Lin Mo could see that his decision was the right one.
Standing atop the majestic sea, one’s heart would unconsciously expand, and worries would naturally disappear.
Though the family was tense, they were all very happy, and Lin Mo felt that today might be the happiest day in recent times.
However, after the novelty of boarding the yacht wore off, all nine members of the family experienced varying degrees of seasickness.
Not even motion sickness medicine helped.
Especially when the waves hit, the earth-shaking sensation, like being thrown high into the air, then harshly slammed back down, was unbearable.
There was no helping it,
In the end, they had to give up enjoying the sunshine and sea breeze on deck and all moved to the living room on the second level of the yacht, each finding a corner to embrace the railing and wait for their bodies to adapt.
Apart from them, there were four crew members on board.
A captain, two sailors, and a young steward.
Spending a hefty sum, of course, the service enjoyed was also top-notch. In the process of adaptation, the sailors would also gradually teach them some methods to combat seasickness.
Moreover, the captain had already mentioned before boarding that feeling seasick was inevitable for those not accustomed to yachts, and it didn’t have much to do with whether one took seasickness medicine or not.
Fortunately, the yacht was not traveling fast, and with the skillful handling of the captain and the good weather, by noon, the family had mostly recovered.
The steward also brought up the lunch.
Chilled jellyfish salad, blood clams, bitter snails, spotted prawns, glass noodle crabs, abalones, fermented black bean eels…
All kinds of seafood filled the table, complemented by three bottles of expensive red wine.
Lin Mo picked up one of the bottles and, looking towards Li Jinshan, said with a smile, “Dad, do you remember this bottle of wine?”
Hmm?
This bottle of wine? What about it?
At his words, everyone’s gaze turned to the bottle of wine in Lin Mo’s hands, while Li Jinwen smiled subtly.
Li Jinshan said with puzzlement, “Of course, I recognize it, Château Haut-Brion, a few thousand a bottle, I’ve seen officials drinking it before!”
He was fond of red wine and had some understanding of various wines.
Li Jinwen also said with a smile, “Dad, think again.”
What do you mean?
Li Jinshan turned to Zhao Huixian and asked, “Can you think of anything? Why can’t I remember a thing?”
Zhao Huixian also shook her head.
Lin Changshui became curious and urged, “Son, stop beating around the bush, and tell us what’s with this wine?”
“I’ll tell it!” Li Jinwen opened the bottle, poured two glasses of wine, placing one in front of her father and the other in front of her mother, and said with a smile, “You might have forgotten, but the first time Lin Mo came to our house, he also brought three bottles of this brand of red wine.”
“However, you two didn’t even give it a glance and drove him out, along with his gifts!”
Oh!!!
Everyone suddenly realized.
Holding the wine glass, Li Jinshan teased, “You’re shaming the old man with this wine, huh? Are you saying I failed to recognize a good thing back then?”
Lin Mo hastily waved his hands, “Dad, I wouldn’t dare, it’s just that I happened to see this wine on the menu this morning.”
“This kid, always with the fancy tricks.” Li Jinshan half-joked, “If you’d shown the bottle back then, I would have let you through the door!”
Everyone couldn’t help but laugh.
Zhao Huixian said with slight annoyance, “Oh? So, that’s all your pride amounts to? Selling your daughter for a few bottles of wine?”
Li Jinshan took a leisurely sip of wine and retorted with satisfaction, “Then tell me, are you satisfied with this son-in-law?”
“Well… I am quite satisfied.”
“Isn’t that what matters?”
“Haha…”
“It’s all in the past now, let’s not talk about it, hurry up and eat.”
“In-laws, red wine can improve blood circulation, it’s good for your health, want some?”
“Better not!”
“Come on, it’s just like a drink, don’t always listen to what doctors say, their words aren’t always right!”
“Dad, your wound has almost healed too, if you feel like drinking, have a little!”
