Quick Transmigration: Hehe, the gluttonous girl is here!

Jiang Li finished the operation quickly and efficiently, tossed her phone into her bag, and lay back down.

The sea breeze, carrying the sunshine, blew over, making me feel warm and cozy.

She squinted at the distant horizon, and a thought suddenly flashed through her mind.

[By the way, Tongzi, did the original novel mention a riot would occur on this cruise ship? And that the original owner of this body would be injured?]

Yes, but the original work only mentions it briefly, saying that the fake heiress suffered minor injuries.

Then use this injury to feign weakness and gain sympathy from your family.

The plot doesn't specify what kind of riot it was or when it happened.

That's it?

This is probably not a big deal.

After all, the female lead from the original novel didn't even appear on screen in this part of the story, which means that this cruise ship storyline isn't a core plot point.

Don't worry too much, I'm here. At worst, I can block out the pain.

Jiang Li thought about it and agreed.

If it were a major disaster, the original work would not have been so understated.

Let's leave that aside for now and enjoy the present.

The infinity pool at the stern of Deck 5 is bathed in perfect sunlight.

Jiang Li was wearing a white bikini.

Wearing a thin white gauze cover-up, she lay half-reclined on a deck chair, enjoying the sun.

"Little Pear, what are you doing lying there daydreaming?"

Accompanied by a splashing sound of water.

A short-haired girl poked most of her body out of the pool.

This is Li Xinyue, the original owner's best friend.

His family is in the real estate industry, and he usually likes to hang out with the original owner, eating and drinking for free.

The original owner booked this cruise ship with friends from the same circle, all of whom were familiar with wealthy young men and women from prominent families.

It's summer vacation, so young people get together to go on a cruise for a few days. The cruise ship stops in several countries, which sounds exciting.

"Sunbathing helps with calcium absorption."

Jiang Li replied lazily, her voice soft and pleasant.

Li Xinyue climbed ashore, grabbed a bath towel and wrapped it around herself, then plopped down on the lounge chair next to Jiang Li.

She pouted, looking unhappy.

"There are so many people on this ship, the fifth floor is packed like sardines."

"My dad is the same. I asked him to book a suite on the tenth floor, but he insisted that he couldn't get one. It made me so angry."

I heard there's a huge private swimming pool there.

A rich young man with dyed blond hair walked over and couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this.

His name is Chen Ziheng, and his family is in the import and export trade.

"Miss Li, please wake up."

"The tenth floor isn't a place you can just live on if you have money; it's reserved for the truly powerful and influential."

"It not only features the extremely private Dining Privée lounge, but also a separate helipad."

Chen Ziheng pointed to the direction above his head and lowered his voice.

"I heard that the higher-ups have assigned dozens of personal butlers and bodyguards, and the security level is frighteningly high."

"Don't even mention your dad, even if you sold your entire company, they might not be able to spare you a single room."

"Anyway, it's not us."

A girl with a high ponytail rolled her eyes: "I'm tempted to go up and see what she looks like."

Li Xinyue grabbed Jiang Li's arm.

"Little Pear, aren't you curious? The penthouse suite on the tenth floor!"

Jiang Li chewed on a cherry and casually said:

"I'm curious, I'll definitely go check it out if I get the chance."

"Honey, I've scanned the suites on the tenth floor. The regular price starts at six figures in US dollars, and the key point is that it's not something you can just stay in if you have money."

Why are you scanning this?

[Just take a look, you never know when you might need to live there!]

Jiang Li was taken aback by the system's optimism.

Although she now has a monthly allowance of three million, that's in RMB.

The level of spending required for a tenth-floor suite is still a bit beyond her current financial means.

Forget it, let's just make some money first.

"Little Pear! Stop sunbathing, come swimming!"

Chen Ziheng had already jumped into the pool and was waving at her.

Li Xinyue chimed in from the side, "Yeah, yeah, you look so good in your swimsuit, it's such a waste not to go in the water!"

Just as Jiang Li was about to get up, she felt several faint gazes around her.

She looked down at herself.

The system's gift of a supple and graceful physique, combined with the original owner's good foundation,

With a slim waist, long legs, and fair skin, her slender and supple body curves were encased in a bikini.

With her delicate nose and bright eyes, this face and figure are indeed quite eye-catching when she stands by the pool.

Two unfamiliar boys on the next lounge chair had already glanced at her several times.

"Honey, I reckon you're in the top three in terms of how many heads you turn on the whole ship right now."

Jiang Li tugged at her blouse, intending to take it off and go swimming.

【Baby! Baby baby baby!】

Jiang Li hadn't had a chance to ask yet.

Li Xinyue suddenly grabbed her arm, so hard that she almost lost her balance.

"Little Pear! Look! Up there!"

Li Xinyue's voice changed, and she stared intently at the building above, as if she had been electrocuted.

"Is that Jiang Chenyan?"

At that shout, everyone around looked up.

"Jiang Chen inkstone? Which Jiang Chen inkstone?"

Chen Ziheng leaned half his body out of the pool, clinging to the edge.

"Nonsense, there are several Jiang Chenyans! He's Xiao Li's older brother, Jiang Chenyan!"

Li Xinyue's voice was very low, but she couldn't hide her excitement.

"I saw his photo on the cover of Asia Pacific Capital. That physique, that presence—it can't be wrong!"

My dad attended a closed-door summit in East Asia a couple of years ago.

It's said that Jiang Chenyan's presence is terrifyingly intimidating; no one dares to speak before him during meetings.

Chen Ziheng swallowed.

The wealthy young men around, who usually only knew of this bigwig's name from financial magazines and their parents, all raised their heads.

The group of people discussed the matter in hushed tones, one after another.

"I can't believe I've lived this long! It really is Jiang Chenyan!"

"This aura is terrifying. I feel a chill down my neck even from one floor away."

"No wonder he's a top-tier boss. I'm so envious of you, Xiaoli, for having such an amazing older brother!"

Hearing the discussions around her, Jiang Li followed their gaze and looked up.

A man was standing next to the balcony railing of Deck 6.

Although they are some distance apart.

But that didn't diminish his oppressive aura, which was transmitted down through a deck.

The tall man, dressed in a pure black bespoke suit, had shoulders so sharply defined they looked as if they had been measured with a ruler.

The sunlight shone on him, but it seemed to be half swallowed up by the black fabric of his clothes.

Standing beside him was a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and four bodyguards in black.

Several bodyguards followed a few steps away.

From this distance, Jiang Li couldn't make out the details of his facial features.

All that could be seen was a tall, slender silhouette and the imposing aura of a superior who kept strangers at bay.

But just look at the outline and the imposing presence.

This silenced the group of people who had been laughing and joking by the pool.

Jiang Li stood still, her gaze fixed on the man's figure.

The original owner's memories flooded back.

Jiang Chenyan, the eldest son of the Jiang family, is 31 years old, eleven years older than her.

He was kidnapped at the age of nine and wandered overseas for several years without any news.

He didn't re-establish contact with the Jiang family until the original owner was five years old.

But he did not go home.

He stayed overseas and, over a decade, transformed himself from a kidnapped child into a name feared by the entire gray area.

To avoid implicating his family, he even changed his nationality and changed his name to Jiang Chenyan.

But those in the industry know that this is just to protect the Jiang family.

Because of this, Jiang Chenyan would have no legal relationship with the Jiang family.

The original owner knew from a young age that he had an older brother with foreign nationality.

But during their only meeting each year during the Lunar New Year, the original owner didn't even dare to look up at him.

That aura was like an invisible high wall.

It was cold and heavy, making you instinctively want to back away.

The original owner didn't dare to talk to him or get close to him.

She only dared to admire from afar, looking up at him cautiously.

This is the entirety of the relationship between the original owner and this older brother.
