After the banquet, as Ji Feng saw off Obama and his entourage, this shocking news had already spread to all the countries concerned about Obama's visit to Jeju Island, especially the neighboring countries and US allies.

The US allies all hoped that the F-22 customized by Ji Feng could become a reality, even though Ji Feng might be the first to take the risk, but it would at least tear open a crack for the export of the F-22, making it possible for other countries to purchase it. Otherwise, they would have no chance at all.

There was also the US's newly developed and equipped Littoral Combat Ship. Although the US military was quite dissatisfied with its performance, as the main defense weapon for coastal areas, it still had a huge appeal, especially its 45-knot high speed, which far exceeded the capabilities of coastal defense weapons of most countries. More importantly, if these weapons were really exported to Jeju Island, it would mean that Jeju Island's future weapons standards would follow US standards, and the increased consumption of ammunition would make US arms dealers extremely wealthy.

It was clear to everyone that Ji Feng was extremely dissatisfied with Indonesia's performance and the tense situation around the Natuna Islands. This was his way of establishing his position in the South China Sea and fully protecting his legitimate interests from being violated.

As Obama and his entourage concluded their visit to Jeju Island, Guo Yunlong clearly felt the immense pressure from within the country. What made him angry was the manipulated media reports, which continuously blackened Ji Feng. Now, even Xu Xian was being smeared. If Ji Feng were just an ordinary person or even a businessman with less influence, it wouldn't matter, but why couldn't certain people see that Ji Feng was not someone to be easily bullied, and he certainly wouldn't tolerate being hit or insulted without retaliating.

Sure enough, his suspicions were confirmed. After Obama and his entourage left, the next day, among those who requested to meet Ji Feng, including Guo Yunlong, only he was not granted an audience. Representatives from South Korea, Japan, North Korea, and the Philippines were all received by Ji Feng, but not Guo Yunlong.

Such a clear signal, if Guo Yunlong still didn't understand what was happening, he wouldn't deserve his position.

He immediately sent his judgment back to the country and requested that a higher-level person be sent to repair the relationship.

On the night he sent the request, the Jeju Island defense forces, 12 nautical miles west of their territorial waters, armed and detained three fishing boats that had entered the area without permission, and forcibly towed them back to the fishing company, announcing the confiscation of the fish and the boats.

Jeju's administrative department, Jin Byung-rip, immediately met with Guo Yunlong, strongly protesting the Chinese fishermen's disregard for the good relations between the two sides and their violation of Jeju's fishing ban by entering Jeju's waters for fishing. He also informed Guo Yunlong of the administrative department's handling of the situation, demanding that China bring the fishermen back to their country. At the same time, he warned all fishermen from neighboring countries to prohibit fishing in Jeju's waters, and stated that if such incidents occurred again, they would be punished according to Jeju's laws. He also demanded that neighboring countries strictly control their fishermen.

Jeju's strong stance in detaining and confiscating three Chinese fishing boats immediately made the Chinese people, who were already annoyed by the media reports, even more indignant. On the internet and in the media, they continued to smear Ji Feng and called on Chinese citizens to stop traveling to Jeju Island.

The most direct impact was a 20% decrease in Chinese tourists to Jeju Island in the coming period. However, in contrast, the number of tourists from the US and European countries increased, and even the number of Japanese tourists increased. South Korean netizens, supporting Xu Xian, engaged in a verbal battle with Chinese netizens, making the internet quite chaotic.

Seeing the increasingly heated online discourse, Ji Feng didn't even bother to pay attention, still refusing Guo Yunlong's request to meet him, and went to the bookstore with Xu Xian to buy books.

Before the wedding, Xu Xian was busy, but after becoming pregnant, she had to avoid strenuous activities. With nothing much to do except walking, occasional swimming, watching TV, and reading, she was especially tired as her due date approached in a little over a month. Ji Feng had to buy her more books to pass the time.

Fortunately, Xu Xian didn't have much time to use the computer. Although she knew that China was blackening them, she wasn't very concerned. When using the computer, she mostly chatted with her fan base and friends. She also knew that radiation could affect the fetus, so she preferred to sit in the living room with a book and a cup of hot water, calling out "Honey, add water" when she needed more, and Ji Feng would run out of his study to refill it.

By the end of July, the online battles were becoming more intense, even spreading to mutual insults between China and neighboring countries, making it increasingly confusing. Even Ji Feng didn't expect so many people to support him, well, more accurately, to support Xu Xian. Xu Xian's influence in Asia was incomparable to his, and countless people in China loved her.

"Wife, do we need to make any more adjustments?" On the 28th, Ji Feng and Xu Xian, who had already received the news, arrived at their new home with some excitement. Looking at the spacious and comfortable mansion that had been built and decorated according to their ideas, Xu Xian was almost bursting with joy, despite her eight-month pregnancy, she was moving around upstairs and downstairs.

"Honey, there's no need to change anything. Everything is just as we wanted. I really want to move in tonight; I don't want to stay in the hotel anymore." Since early July, the two had been coming over to check the progress, making adjustments, and deciding on furniture and appliances. Even the appliances were taken care of by Samsung, who, upon learning that Xu Xian was setting up her new home, provided everything, much to Ji Feng's chagrin, as he wanted to buy a Siemens washing machine. The two had their own styles for their study, and the bedroom was designed by Xu Xian, with Ji Feng leaving the interior to her, as he had already agreed to let her handle the inside while he handled the outside.

Ji Feng smiled and said to Kim Tae-hee, who was following them, "Have the things moved over. We'll be living here from now on." Ji Feng and the others would live on the second floor, while the first floor would be for the service staff, including the secretary, who also had their own homes and could return during their days off.

Kim Tae-hee bowed and smiled, then immediately took out his phone to notify the other two secretaries to arrange the move. The hotel mostly contained Xu Xian's clothes and books, as well as gifts they had received, filling two large rooms.

Holding Xu Xian's hand, he helped her sit on a peachwood chair on the second-floor viewing platform, where the air was filled with a faint floral scent, and the vast blue sea stretched out before them.

Ji Feng returned inside for a moment and brought out washed fruit and a glass of watermelon juice, placing them in front of Xu Xian. Sitting beside her, he looked out at the private beach and the small, elegant white pier, the endless blue sea, and stretched his arms out, closing his eyes contentedly. "This is the life I love the most, living by the sea with my wife, swimming and fishing in my free time, and occasionally visiting the farm, ranch, and fields. Even the gods wouldn't trade this for anything."

Xu Xian sipped the slightly chilled watermelon juice, thinking about the dreams they had discussed late at night in bed, and smiled. "Yes, my dear, your ideals have been realized. You have the farm, ranch, and the big house by the sea. Are you thinking of getting a younger and prettier wife next?"

Ji Feng laughed and held Xu Xian's hand, looking at her playful expression but speaking seriously. "I haven't thought about that. All women are the same. Having you is enough for me. In the next few years, shouldn't we try to have more children? Otherwise, one daughter will be too lonely."

Xu Xian, feeling both happy and pained, stroked her belly and said unhappily, "Did you marry me just to have children? I don't want to become a sow. At most, two or three. If you want more, you'll have to find someone else. And you must promise me to wait a few years before having more. You promised to travel the world with me."

Ji Feng chuckled, "Sure, whenever you want. We can have more after we travel the world."

Xu Xian didn't object to this. Traveling the world would take a few years, and having another child then would be fine. Xu Xian actually liked children, but she didn't want to have them so early. The daughter in her belly was a complete accident. "By the way, I need to notify my sisters and friends about moving into the new house, and invite them to gather if they have time."

Ji Feng smiled, "You decide. When you set the date, I'll notify the three of them."

Xu Xian lightly tapped Ji Feng's arm and said with a playful smile, "How can you talk about your brother and younger brother like that? OPPA, I heard that Sister Su-yeong broke up with Big Brother. She said she saw Big Brother with Sister In-jeong in a hotel early in the morning."

Mentioning Choi Su-yeong, Ji Feng's expression became excited, but hearing the rest of what Xu Xian said, he was speechless. It seemed Big Brother's womanizing was back. He laughed awkwardly, "Big Brother is just like that. Ah, don't mind them. It seems their fate hasn't aligned yet. But who is In-jeong? I haven't heard you mention her."

Xu Xian shook her head, unsure whether Ji Feng's lack of attention to the entertainment industry was good or bad. "She's a senior from our training days. She's now a member of T-ARA."

Ji Feng was surprised, "Isn't that group not from our company?" He thought, could it be that Big Brother is changing his style and going after an entire group? Maybe I should learn from him. The other eight members of Girls' Generation don't have boyfriends yet.

Xu Xian said regretfully, "Yes, before we debuted, Sister In-jeong suddenly announced that she wouldn't debut. Fortunately, she later found a suitable position at M-net."

Ji Feng laughed, "Is it that Choi Su-yeong came to you to complain? You should be careful with your health. Our daughter can feel it in your belly. Try not to get upset over these things."

Xu Xian happily stroked her belly and giggled, "I'm not going to get upset. I know what kind of person Big Brother is, and it's better for Sister Su-yeong not to be with him. OPPA, can you handle being without a woman for so long? Do you want me to introduce you to some of my sisters?"

Ji Feng was taken aback by her words, coughed, and then laughed, "Sure, if you're willing, I have no objections."

Xu Xian looked into Ji Feng's eyes, seeing his playful expression, and said dejectedly, "Hmph, you wish. The sisters won't be willing."
