With Damon and Alfie joining the group, the gathering became livelier.

Damon, married for years, didn't pay much attention to Valentine's Day, but the enthusiasm of the group stirred his interest.

"Design for the merchant's boats? Can a well-designed boat really move my wife? How do we quantify this emotional value?" Damon, utilizing all his intellect, couldn't grasp the concept.

Alfie, rubbing his nose, pondered for a while. "The merchant's boat designs aren't that impressive; yachts would be better."

"Let's be resourceful; aiming to match the luxury of yachts would be a fascinating challenge," Sean was determined to use the merchant's boats for his design.

"Are you in love?" Damon looked at Alfie, noting his shift in focus to family over the years and unaware of Alfie's romantic life.

Alfie's smile was uncontrollable, looking blissfully foolish. "Yeah, my wife is so cool. I'll introduce her to you guys on Valentine's Day!"

"I can tell; you're henpecked," Kevin remarked teasingly.

"Better henpecked than a flirtatious turnip who can't even win over a simple designer," Alfie hit back sharply.

Kevin felt this gathering was particularly joyless. He clung to Xavien, expressing mock affection. "Now, only you are with me."

"Sorry, I'm a bachelor. That's different from you," Xavien politely smiled.

Kevin released him with an exaggerated eye roll. "Wait till you're old and alone—"

"I've lived freely for decades. Suffering in old age seems fair," Xavien's smile grew more annoying.

Kevin flared his clothes open with a sneer. "Fine, you bunch of dogs, hurry up and think how do we calculate this 'heart-moving' value!"
