Mu Fu is still frightened when she thinks of the previous cruise ship accident. Although her hand was injured, she at least survived. But how can she be so lucky every time!
Mu Fu rarely looked stern at her daughter. "You're not allowed to go, you hear me? School is about to start, so you have to stay home and don't go anywhere!"
"mom……"
"If I say you're not allowed to run, then you're not allowed to run. If you dare to run, I'll have your dad break your legs. Losing your legs is better than losing your life."
"Mom, it's not as serious as you think. We've sent a team of experts, and we've made thorough preparations. Besides, this is the best time of year to go out to sea. Don't worry, everything will be fine."
"There is nothing absolute in this world. It's better to be safe than sorry!" Mu Fu was determined not to give in.
She is just an ordinary woman and a mother of a child. The feelings of family and country are too far away from her. Naturally, she is reluctant to let her daughter take risks. Her greatest wish is to have a happy family.
Wen Xi certainly understood what she was thinking, but some things had to be settled.
"Mom, listen to me. I have to go this time."
"Why? You're not a professional, so you won't be able to help if you go."
"I'm not going there for the treasure, but for another reason."
"What's the reason?" Mu Fu looked puzzled. This trip to the sea was for the treasure. What else could there be?
"Auntie, I asked Sister Xi to go."
Just then, Xiaohua walked in from outside, holding the guqin left by Sheng Qingfeng in her arms.
"you?"
Seeing her like this, Mu Fu became even more confused.
"Yes, Auntie, please agree to it, otherwise I really won't be able to explain it to Grandma."
"Grandma? Explain?"
The more Mu Fu listened, the more confused she became.
"Xiaoxi, what's going on? What do Huahua and her grandmother have to do with this sea voyage?"
"Mom, now that things have come to this, I won't hide it from you. Xiaohua is not my classmate. She is the granddaughter of my grandfather's savior."
"Savior?"
"Yes, Professor Gou mentioned earlier about my grandfather's experience on the isolated island. Do you still remember that?"
"certainly."
"The person who rescued Grandpa from the drowning and helped him drive away the intruders who hid the treasure was Xiaohua's grandmother. Over the years, she has devoted all her energy to protecting that treasure."
"Really? Then why didn't you tell me earlier?" After listening to Wen Xi's explanation, Mu Fu hurriedly pulled Xiao Hua to her side and said, "Good child, how can I repay your family for saving my life?"
"Auntie, you're too kind. These are all my grandma's own wishes, without asking for anything in return." Xiaohua said a little embarrassedly.
"Mom, I didn't tell you before because I wanted to protect Xiaohua. She is from the Luo tribe and has a special status."
"The Luo people? What kind of people are they? I've never heard of them."
"Xiaohua, can you speak?" Wen Xi looked at the other party and asked.
To explain the whole story, it is necessary to uncover the secrets of the Luo clan.
"Of course, Sister Xi, you are Grandpa Sheng's family. There is nothing to hide, so let me explain. Auntie, we Luo people are different from ordinary people. Because we enjoy an incredible lifespan, I am afraid that we will be targeted by those with ulterior motives and suffer misfortune. That's why I asked Sister Xi to help me keep it a secret."
After briefly telling her life story, Xiaohua recounted what happened that year from another perspective based on what she had learned from her grandmother.
"The situation is basically the same as what Professor Gou said, but..." Having said that, she looked at Mu Fu cautiously.
