NOVEL WEB Chapter 707: Relaxation
Now, it's been seven days since the duel, and logically speaking, the storm should have calmed down.
However, due to past experiences, most of the girls are staying in their rooms, only going out when necessary, fearing accidents.
Actually, Su Mo could tell that most of the sisters were eager to have some fun, having finally come aboard the ship.
They just didn't want to add trouble for Qian Chengxue and himself, so they were holding back. But after all, everyone is human, staying locked in a room for months would drive anyone crazy.
So Su Mo thought about booking a pool and throwing a party, so everyone could get some fresh air and enjoy themselves freely here without any worries.
"I want the Third Gear's best service, but we don't need the accompanying band or celebrity lineup since we like it quiet. And when we're having fun, absolutely no one else is allowed to disturb us. If anything goes wrong, don't blame me for being rude."
Su Mo's words ended with a hint of warning.
"Rest assured, our service will be flawless, and we'll ensure you receive the highest treatment."
"Alright, it's settled. Pay up!"
Su Mo straightforwardly took out his bank card and swiped it.
After all, thanks to the last gambling duel, his card had an additional 620 million Star Coins, so this wasn't much.
...
Not long after, Su Mo returned to the residential area.
He bumped into Zhao Han head-on.
"Su Mo, where did you go so late? You should avoid wandering around lately; it's not very safe. After all, you just took out that Galen, what if someone seeks revenge?"
Zhao Han reminded Su Mo with concern.
"No worries. By the way, Zhao Han, can you help me with something?"
Su Mo said instructively.
"What is it?"
Zhao Han looked at Su Mo with a puzzled expression.
"Get all the sisters together by 7 a.m. tomorrow. I have something to announce."
"What's it about?"
Zhao Han's eyes flashed with curiosity.
"You'll find out then. It's a surprise."
Su Mo replied with a smile.
"Alright, I'll go inform the other sisters."
Zhao Han's eyes lit up, and she quickly gathered the other sisters and left.
Su Mo stood in place thinking for a while, then picked up his phone to text Lin Xiaoyu. Such a big party is a perfect chance to invite Lin Xiaoyu and possibly mend her relationship with Qian Chengxue.
Most importantly, Lin Xiaoyu hadn't called Qian Chengxue 'Sister' yet.
It's also a good chance to surprise Qian Chengxue.
So Su Mo walked to Qian Chengxue's room and knocked on the door.
Knock, knock!
"Come in."
The voice of Qian Chengxue came from inside.
Su Mo opened the door and went in, only to see Qian Chengxue in loose pajamas, reviewing some documents.
"Busy?"
Su Mo asked softly.
Seeing it was Su Mo, Qian Chengxue put down the documents.
"Yes, a bit busy. I'm double-checking the list and also reviewing the payment list sent from the frontline."
"Well, I appreciate your hard work."
Su Mo said to Qian Chengxue.
"It's not hard. The real struggle was yours, still unwell and yet you fought such a big battle. I'm a bit worried. Please consult me next time you face something like this."
Qian Chengxue shook her head.
"Alright, definitely. I've noticed everyone's been feeling a bit cooped up lately, so I booked a starry sky pool for a day. Let's go have some fun tomorrow morning."
Su Mo invited with a slightly guilty tone.
"Sure, but I have something to take care of tomorrow morning. You guys go ahead, and I'll join you once I'm done."
Although slightly surprised, Qian Chengxue agreed immediately.
Su Mo was relieved to see Qian Chengxue agree, having worried she wouldn't make it due to her busyness.
"Alright!"
.....
The next morning, Zhao Han and over two thousand sisters gathered early.
They discussed curiously.
"What could be the reason Su Mo gathered us?"
"No idea, but there's supposed to be a surprise."
...
"Whatever the surprise is, at least there's something to do."
"True, I'm going crazy staying in the room."
"That's nothing; I've gone to get sleeping pills."
.....
Just as everyone was chattering away.
Su Mo approached, and in an instant, the crowd of girls swarmed towards him.
"Su Mo, what's the surprise you called us for?"
"Yeah, tell us."
.....
Startled, Su Mo quickly raised his hand and said, "Stop, stop, don't crowd around. It's nothing major, just that I see everyone is bored, so I've decided on a company team-building. I've booked an entire starry sky pool, just for us to enjoy. No need to worry about safety, it's just us!"
Upon hearing Su Mo's words, the girls at the scene screamed excitedly.
"Ah, that's awesome!"
"Love you!"
...
Suddenly, four or five girls excitedly threw themselves at Su Mo.
"Calm down....."
Su Mo called out with a wry smile.
Nearby, Zhao Han, Sun Li, and others were laughing joyfully.
...
Half an hour later, Su Mo led the crowd to the designated area of the starry sky pool.
The area he booked was 45,000 square meters, with a water capacity of 12,000 cubic meters, set up for a standard of five thousand people.
Next to the pool were self-service tables filled with assorted foods and fruits, as well as various top-quality alcoholic beverages.
Everything was top-notch and unlimited.
Numerous diving boards were set above the pool, and various beach chairs lined the pool's edge.
Most importantly, the pool's ground was not hard but covered with the softest fine sand.
It created a beach-like vibe.
As soon as Su Mo and the group entered, electronic isolation screens descended around the pool area.
Then, the screens flickered with an illusionary effect, simulating a real environment, instantly transforming the area into an independent space.
"Sisters, let's go change!"
Sun Li and the other sisters shouted excitedly upon seeing it.
"Alright!"
...
The sisters excitedly rushed to the women's changing room.
Left behind were only dozens of confused male comrades, unsure of what to do.
"What are you standing around for? Go change!"
Seeing Qin Wang and the others standing there dazed, Su Mo reminded them.
"Oh, right!"
Qin Wang and the others finally snapped back to reality and headed to the men's changing room.
At this point, Su Mo noticed Lin Xiaoyu hadn't gone to change but had found a lounge chair to lie on, swaying back and forth, prompting him to curiously ask.
"Aren't you going to change and play?"
"It's boring to play often. I'm just here to pass the time; it's the same anywhere."
Lin Xiaoyu replied listlessly.
Su Mo chuckled and said to Lin Xiaoyu, "That's fine, it's up to you. But you remember what you promised me last time; when Qian Chengxue comes, remember to call her 'Sister', okay?"
"Got it."
Lin Xiaoyu wrinkled her nose, somewhat reluctantly replying.
"Haha, that's fine then."
Su Mo responded with a smile.
"Right, there's something I want to ask you."
Lin Xiaoyu raised her head to look at Su Mo.
"Go ahead."
Su Mo replied patiently.
"In Galen's final berserk state, could you beat him?"
When Lin Xiaoyu asked, her eyes sparkled with anticipation.
"Piece of cake."
Su Mo answered with a smile.
After hearing Su Mo's response, Lin Xiaoyu's eyes were filled with admiration. She excitedly asked, "Can you teach me how to fight someday? Not to mention anything else, but that Light Speed Flash, I've never seen anyone use it so well, and consecutively too."
"Uh~ we'll see how you perform."
Su Mo replied with a smile.
Lin Xiaoyu puffed up her cheeks but couldn't help responding in the end.
"Alright, I know."
