When lunch ca around, everyone was still talking about Tangning. When they were not discussing her, they were laughing at the dogs and cats that were loving the conveyor belt which had beco a sushi conveyor belt.
Nearly everyone had gathered on the deck for lunch which involved fun and laughter. Another reason for laughter was Chi Zimo. He had tampered with the adult drinks nu, mixing alcohol in everything
He was already three belching and staggering and the teenagers were having fun recording him.
"I have a toast to make." he declared loudly.
For a mont, everyone kept quiet, waiting to hear what he would say. Junjie even lowered the music blasting from the speakers.
"To family." He shouted, raising a glass of a blue cocktail that started to bubble and produce foam.
The kids scread in excitent.
"Where are your pants?" The Emperor Eritus asked.
Zimo’s eyes widened and he looked down. He was in fact wearing shorts and the Emperor Eritus was pranking him.
While others jiggled, he staggered all the way to where the zip line had been tied and attached it to himself.
"What are you doing dad?" His son shouted.
He belched and replied "I am getting justice for Mingzhu’s wombat. Whoooooo!" He soared across the sky only for the zip line to give up halfway and toss him over the deck.
He was now dangling and flailing.
The dogs went to peek, barking wildly, alerting everyone to a possibly dangerous situation. Chi Lian sent out a robot butler to help him.
His wife his behind a cushion and said, "I am not related to that man."
Everyone laughed.
Mingzhe, Muyang and Jingzhe went to fix the zip line while Zimo was carried off to be checked by a doctor.
"It is amazing that younger brother-in-law has survived to this age." Rize said. "He is always getting involved in mischief."
"Like Noodles." i i ntioned.
The cat which was passing close by paused and looked at the won who also looked at it. On her head was a captain’s hat and in her mouth, a roll of sushi.
"She probably thinks that was made with the fish she almost drowned trying to catch yesterday." i i said.
The cat walked away with the grace of an unbothered feline.
More water sports continued after lunch and when sunset arrived, they all ca together for the annual vacation photograph.
And after, it was off to bathe and rest in preparation for dinner. But how could they rest when the parrot was reciting poetry again?
"A man in the air took a dive,
And landed where the water ca alive.
He had skinny arms like the skinny sea.
And I blessed his head with bird poop."
Jingzhe was very entertained by it and he was jiggling on the bed while watching i i pull on a dress that he planned to pull off in ten minutes.
"Is that parrot talking about Uncle Zimo?" he asked her.
i i nodded. "Uh-huh." She picked up a pair of earrings and tried them on. After her mother’s golden swimsuit unveiling, every woman was going to co out dresses to the nines for dinner. She could not be left behind.
Jingzhe crawled from the bed, put his feet down and walked to her. With ease, he lifted her up and tossed her on the bed.
"What are you up to you rascal?" she hissed.
He grabbed a bottle of honey that he had left on the table after breakfast. Then he pulled off his shirt and smiled naughtily, "Baby, I played so much all day with the children. Now, I want to play with you."
"Feng Jingzhe you insatiable vixen, I don’t want anymore hickeys." i i tried to crawl away but he caught her leg and pulled her back.
He raised her right leg, placing it on his shoulder, "No hickeys and no delays. I will be focused and swift like a man on a sweet mission to paradise."

Dinner was a simple feast, nothing too complicated like the heavy lunch they had. i i had been right in her guess, the ladies ca out dressed for the occasion.
Silk, fur, jewels...it looked like a fashion show that left the n in shock.
"Are we in the right place?" The Emperor asked Jingzhe.
Jingzhe shrugged. "If my baby wants to be eye candy, I am glad to look and support her from behind."
He ant it literally because he was staring at i i’s butt.
Junjie sighed. "You are like a rabbit in heat. If you don’t want her father gouging your eyes out, I advice you to control yourself."
Jingzhe laughed. Mingzhu ca out from under the table and launched herself in his arms. She was dressed in a white fur dress and white fur slippers.
"You look like you just stepped out of the stone age!" He exclaid. "Whose idea was it to turn you into queen of the wolves?"
Mingzhu pointed to Su Manchu.
Jingzhe realized that Mingzhu was not the only child in a costu of so kind. But, while others looked like sea creatures, only his daughter was dressed in furs.
"Why didn’t you dress like the little rmaid?" He asked her.
"She had no voice daddy, Mingzhu likes her voice." She replied in a small voice. "And I don’t want to live under the sea. It is very big daddy, I will get lost and never see you and mommy again. What will you both do without ?"
Jingzhe hugged her tighter. Indeed, what would they do without their favorite third wheel?
Junjie sighed. "How a sweet girl like her ca from a troll Jun ilin, I will never understand."
Everyone settled around the table, food started being passed around and glasses clinked in different directions. It coincided with the sound of laughter and cheer.
The pets were settled in their own section, enjoying dinner as well. Black Guard and General Big Yellow had small hills of food that were almost the size of small mountains.
Sohow, Chi Zimo ended up drunk again. From the laughter between her uncles, i i guessed they had a hand in the matter.
The night ended with dancing, stargazing and a new post from the peepstar announcing the death of Prince Long Bo.
The Mighty Little Peepstar: Sorrow visits the ruling house for the second ti in this year.
Prince Long Bo went out for his weekly race, miscalculated a turn and his car rolled down the mountain.
Efforts to rescue him were quick but the angel of death was quicker.
It is no consolation but at least this ti, the royals will have a real body to bury.]
"I guess the vacation is over." i i mumbled.
