She left the cabin and followed the sound to the cruise ship's bridge, where she saw Lin Zhibai, Shen Xinghui, and others gathered.

Two people who looked like staff members were constantly adjusting the machine.

"What's wrong?" Her heart sank.

Sure enough, Shen Xinghui's answer was worrying: "The cruise ship broke down halfway through the journey. This place is a signal blind spot, and we can't contact rescue."

Signal blind spot?

Unable to contact rescue?

How could words that only appear in the deep sea or in desolate mountains and forests be associated with the journey to Lili Island?

But it really happened!

When did this happen?

"A little after one o'clock in the afternoon."

Yun Suiwan glanced at the time; it was already 7 p.m.

She slept for quite a long time.

"Why didn't you wake me up?" she asked.

“We’ve been trying to figure something out. I saw you were sleeping soundly, so you must be tired. That’s why we didn’t wake you,” Shen Xing replied.

Yun Suiwan never knew that she could have such a good night's sleep when faced with such an important matter.

She temporarily put aside her doubts and asked Shen Xinghui what solutions they had come up with so far.

Only then did I learn that the crew on the yacht had split into three groups and gone out in small boats to seek rescue.

But there has been no news yet.

“Da Wen has also led a team out,” Shen Xing replied. “His destination is Lili Island. At the speed of the small boat, a rescue ship should arrive by tomorrow afternoon at the latest.”

He wanted to reassure Yun Suiwan that there would be no danger.

Yun Suiwan never considered whether there was any danger.

What she was thinking about was that she had an appointment with Lu Dongjue tomorrow.

He will give her an answer after we meet tomorrow.

There's no point in saying anything more now that things have come to this.

"Let's figure out how to get the cruise ship up and running first," she said.

If the cruise ship starts moving, they can at least use a compass to navigate back to the dock.

...

The sky was already bright.

The doctor was examining Gu Fanyan.

Although Gu Fanyan was awake, her face was still very pale, and she was weak and limp on the bed.

"The fever has subsided, the lungs sound okay, but the throat is still a bit inflamed. I'll give you another anti-inflammatory injection this morning," the doctor said. "Overall, there's nothing seriously wrong."

Mrs. Gu frowned: "But she doesn't look well."

Gu Fanyan continued, "Doctor, my bones still ache all over, and I'm very short of breath when I speak..."

Gu's mother also asked, "Doctor, is there anything we haven't checked?"

The doctor paused for a moment, then nodded. "The equipment at home isn't as complete as in the hospital. Why don't you take him to the hospital for a comprehensive checkup?"

Although, based on his experience, he judged that Miss Gu only had a common cold.

But if others aren't afraid of making a fuss, why should he be?

“Yes, housekeeper,” Madam Gu instructed, “Quickly carry Fanyan onto the carriage.”

Gu Fanyan frowned in resistance, looking at Lu Dongjue, "I don't want to carry you, it's too bumpy..."

The butler was very sensible and immediately stepped back, making way for Lu Dongjue.

Lu Dongjue glanced at his watch, stepped forward, and said, "I'll carry you on my back, it won't be bumpy."

He first helped Gu Fanyan up with his large hands, then turned around, grabbed her legs with his other hand, and carried her steadily on his back.

Helpless, Gu Fanyan could only grab his shoulder.

Mrs. Gu remained silent until the doctor and nanny left, then she spoke to the housekeeper: "Did Young Master Lu stay in Miss's room all night?"

The butler nodded: "I came in twice last night to deliver medicine, and Young Master Lu was sitting on the sofa both times."

"You've been sitting on the sofa the whole time, without moving an inch?" Gu's mother raised her delicate eyebrows.

"It doesn't look like it's been moved," the butler shook his head.

"He's being very polite," Gu's mother said angrily, and then walked away.

The butler sighed and shook his head. Logically speaking, since Young Master Lu and Miss Lu were a couple who were about to get married, their behavior should have been more intimate.

But to outsiders, Lu Shao's attitude towards the young lady was distant.

The young lady has been the family's darling since childhood, and with the Gu family's illustrious background, what can't she have?

Lu Shao, however, remained indifferent.

No wonder Gu's mother was angry.

Lu Dongjue helped Gu Fanyan into the back seat, then straightened up and prepared to sit in the front passenger seat.

"Dongjue, you stay with Fanyan." Gu's mother walked to his side and said casually.

Before Lu Dongjue could answer, the butler had already opened the car door and helped Gu's mother into the car.

Lu Dongjue remained silent and turned to sit in the back seat.

Gu Fanyan sat curled up in the corner formed by the car door and the back of the seat, looking both pitiful and uncomfortable.

A hint of heartache flashed in Gu's mother's eyes, "Fanyan, are you cold?"

Lu Dongjue then spoke up, "Driver, turn up the heat. Didn't you prepare a blanket in the car?" His tone was full of reproach.

The driver, feeling uneasy, quickly turned the heater to its maximum and got out of the car to fetch a blanket.

Lu Dongjue opened the blanket and wrapped Gu Fanyan up tightly.

"Hang in there a little longer, we'll be at the hospital soon," Lu Dongjue said in a very gentle voice.

Gu's mother was anxious. What she really wanted was to force Lu Dongjue to hug Fanyan.

But given her status, she could only hint at it, not say it outright.

But Lu Dongjue didn't understand her hint.

But you can't say he didn't care about Fan Yan.

Gu's mother was deeply hurt.

Gu Fanyan did the same, pretending to be pitiful and helpless, just to take her relationship with Lu Dongjue a step further and become more like a couple.

Lu Dongjue, however, handled the situation with such perfect finesse.

It felt like she was eating a tasteless ginseng fruit; swallowing it wasn't right, and not swallowing it wasn't right either.

But it's okay.

If she can get through today, she believes her relationship with Lu Dongjue will improve.

After arriving at the hospital, the doctor ordered a series of tests for Gu Fanyan.

Gu's mother suggested that they take this opportunity to have a physical examination.

"Dongjue, Fanyan isn't feeling well right now, and she's also in a bad mood. She's quite dependent on you, so spend more time with her." Gu's mother placed a small stack of medical reports into Lu Dongjue's hands.

"I still have some things to take care of at home, but I feel at ease knowing that you're here with me, Fanyan."

After giving her instructions, Mrs. Gu left, taking the housekeeper and nanny with her.

She was essentially handing Gu Fanyan over to Lu Dongjue.

She seemed quite at ease.

Lu Dongjue didn't say much, and helped Gu Fanyan run from checkpoint to checkpoint.

Time slips away little by little.

The cruise ship remained anchored on the sea, as quiet as an oil painting.

Yun Suiwan sat on the deck, dialing Lu Dongjue's number again and again.

Trying to find some gaps in the signal blind spot.

This gap shouldn't be too long, even just a few dozen seconds, enough for her to tell him that she had something come up and couldn't keep their appointment today.

“Young Miss.” Xiao Wu came to her side. “Young Miss, don’t worry, Da Wen will definitely bring people over.”

Yun Suiwan nodded, "I'm not worried about Dawen's ability to handle things."

Xiao Wu looked at her with a puzzled expression in his big eyes.

What was the source of her deep worry?

Yun Suiwan lowered her eyes. "Xiao Wu, I have a very important phone call to make today..."
