As the plane landed, the cabin door slowly opened, the scraping sound of it sliding tightening the hearts of the passengers.
Finally meeting, Xing Zhu immediately locked onto Zhou's mother, who seemed even more affectionate than when she saw her on screen. Seeing that her daughter showed no signs of distance, the mother hugged Zhou's mother, tears streaming down her face.
"Lan'er, I'm sorry, I'm not a good mother."
Zhou's mother was somewhat at a loss, and after a long while she raised her hand to stroke her slightly thin back.
"No, you are great, and your loved one is great too. I think we should do a paternity test. We can't mistake the descendants of a martyr for each other."
Xing Zhu burst into tears.
The child was raised by adoptive parents who mistreated her, yet they never complained. Instead, they were considerate of her, which made her feel even more guilty.
“I’m pretty sure you’re my Lan’er, but if you really want to verify it, then Mom will do as you say.”
Xing Zhu released Zhou's mother, her eyes never leaving her face. She saw her child and her lover reflected in her face.
Brother Shi, I've found Lan'er. A hundred years from now, I'll have the face to meet you in the afterlife.
After introducing her husband and children, Zhou's mother, led by Zhou Wenyan, went to get an expedited paternity test.
Shishi got off the plane carrying a large bag of money, only to find that everyone had disappeared. She was dumbfounded.
"Hey, the money! Don't you want the money anymore?"
"I just watched them being sentimental and flirted with that stinky egg for a bit, how did he disappear in an instant?"
"Hey, is it legal for us to take this bag of money home?"
The money-grubber accepted money without hesitation, and Xie Lin said indulgently, "Isn't all our money enough for you to carry? Let Master Er take it to them. Are you hungry? Let's go back to the hotel for dinner."
Lu Fan and his six companions couldn't bear to watch.
Are you flirting?
This is clearly an act of cruelty towards couples.
Sitting on someone's lap and hugging is one thing, but why whisper to each other face to face and nose to nose? Getting any closer and they're practically touching mouths is embarrassing to watch.
Single guys can forget about it, but even those of us with wives are getting envious. Sigh, I miss my wife.
Chou Chou and Xiao Shi haven't figured things out yet and are immune to it. Besides, they've seen so much of this in the space that they're already used to it and don't think anything of it.
Old Master Tao, on the other hand, was quite pleased to see the young couple being so affectionate.
He accepted the sack with a smile.
"Your master will pass it on to Sister Xing for you, so don't worry and go back."
"Xiao Liang, remember to bring the local specialties to Lao Tang for me, and make it clear that I brought them back to him from my trip with Shi Shi."
Liang Jianbin said he would definitely pass on the message, quickly sent the person back to the restaurant, and then ran off in a flash.
He misses his wife too.
After receiving the news that his son had woken up, Old Master Ye had been looking forward to the return of Shishi and the others. He believed that Guagua would bring back the videotape of his son and his wife. Upon hearing that the plane was returning, he waited at the restaurant early.
As expected, Guagua recorded a video for Ye Long and his wife, who had regained their energy and spirits.
The couple in the video express their longing for their elderly father and two daughters, telling them not to worry, that it was just carelessness this time, and that they will be more careful in the future.
Old Ye stared intently at the screen, examining every nook and cranny from head to toe, only feeling at ease after personally confirming that the child was unharmed.
Having a child late in life, he doesn't interfere with his child's choices, nor does he expect him to be successful. He only wishes that his child acts with a clear conscience and lives a peaceful and safe life.
"I heard that after you caught and punished the culprits, Little Dragon and the other 12 woke up. Quack quack, is that thing really that powerful?"
"Amazing, of course amazing. He has the entire village under his control. There are swarms of insects everywhere, it's terrifying."
The cricket changed the view, and the screen went completely black. If it weren't for the cricket moving, you would have thought the screen was black.
Caught off guard by the sudden visual impact, Old Master Ye turned deathly pale.
Then came the image of fire, and he even felt like he could smell the burning.
"Stinky thing, turn it off quickly." He was afraid he would have nightmares.
Guagua: ...You only released it because you asked me. A man's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea.
"Hmm, where's Grandpa Ye? Why didn't he come in for dinner?"
Shishi carried a large plate of abalone sauce rice that Chef Xue had specially made for her, eating as she walked. She didn't see the old man and was puzzled.
Guagua wanted to say that he had been scared away by the bugs, but after thinking about it, he decided to save face for the old man.
He said that if he didn't eat the vegetables he bought, they would spoil, so he would cook something when he got home.
"Oh, he's not going to have any luck. The abalone sauce rice is really delicious. Rotten Egg, Xiao Xuezi said there's not much dried goods left. Call Shen Bingshan and ask if the goods are ready. Have Xiao Liangzi make a trip."
Since the restaurant opened, the military wives on the island have had extra income.
Besides gathering and drying seafood themselves, they also buy dried goods from villagers to earn a profit. Their monthly income is higher than their husbands' allowances, and their lives are becoming increasingly prosperous.
The four younger brothers earned a fortune while studying.
The restaurant accepts both dried and fresh seafood, and Liang Jianbin became the exclusive seafood transport driver, truly air-freighting seafood.
"Okay, I'll start right away. Eat slowly."
The phone rang first; it was from the top leader. A few seconds later, Xie Lin sighed.
"Shishi, the big boss wants us to go to the manor."
Shishi asked warily, "What is it?"
She doesn't want to go to the research institute.
“That’s good. Hong Kong businessmen are making big investments. Because they have many projects, they think you’re lucky and want you to take a look at the contract so they can feel at ease.”
Shishi remained silent. "That's superstition."
How can one not be superstitious?
He brought back countless treasures the moment he stepped out of the house; anyone unaware of his existence would be bewildered.
The quack came over and said, "Master, during this period, there are many wealthy people in Hong Kong, especially a few real estate tycoons. Their money is higher than our lifespan."
