Fu Wan's face flushed red, and her ears burned.
"No...you're welcome!"
She led Shen Lingling home quickly. If it weren't for seeing her fleeing figure, Bai Qianzhou would have thought she had no emotional fluctuations at all.
Borrowing a straw hat and a towel from Fu San, Bai Qianzhou dressed himself up like a local fisherman.
Then I went to the village committee office where the village chief had made the call.
Zhao Gang's phone call still went unanswered. When Bai Qianzhou knocked on the door and came in, he startled both Boss Fu and Village Chief Fu.
Clearly, he remembered other numbers besides Zhao Gang's. After making two or three calls, he habitually went to get money to pay the phone bill.
When he touched himself, he found nothing on his body, which made him blush with embarrassment.
Village Chief Fu belatedly realized his intention, "Dr. Bai, forget it. We've known each other for a long time, I'll pay for it for you."
The village phone calls are charged by the hour; you have to pay for both official and personal matters.
Fu Laoda silently took out fifty cents from his pocket, "My family will pay for this."
He then took out a few large ten-yuan bills and stuffed them into Bai Qianzhou's hand, saying, "We can be considered to be destined to meet, but our fate may end here."
"Dr. Bai, I hope you will be safe and sound in the future. My family will not see you off."
Fu Laoda just wants his family to live a good life and for everyone to live in peace.
Fu Wan herself provoked Xue Qing, and he accepted that, but they didn't want to get involved in Bai Qianzhou's battle with Xue Qing.
Before, I felt sorry for Bai Qianzhou because he had become an idiot, but now that he has recovered, I have to seek revenge on Xue Qing!
It doesn't matter to me; I've lived two lives. My wife and children are still young, so I can't take in Bai Qianzhou anymore.
Bai Qianzhou understood what it meant, and his hand, which was pushing the money back, paused.
"Uncle Fu, I understand what you mean. Consider this money a loan from me. Don't worry, I will definitely not implicate you."
Only when you borrow can you repay; only in this way can the relationship continue.
Whether fate can be severed or not, Bai Qianzhou always firmly believed that things can be accomplished by human effort.
Little did Fu Laoda know what he was planning. He waved his hand and went home.
Shen Lingling finally returned home and showered Ye Xiaocui with sweet words. Fu Wan put the rabbit that Ye Jianguo had given her into the cage and then went to the backyard to pick some vegetable leaves and throw them in.
Then she checked the food at home and realized that she still had one of the fish she caught a few days ago left.
"Mom, why haven't you finished eating this fish yet?"
Ye Xiaocui would never say that it was because they weren't there that the two of them had no appetite for the meal, and she just laughed and said that there were too many fish left over from before.
As night fell, the Fu family sat down at the dinner table for a meal.
"Ah Wan, are you going to participate in that competition?"
Fu Ming was eager to try; that was three hundred yuan!
Fu Wan glanced at him. "You want to go?"
Fu Ming nodded, but unexpectedly, Ye Xiaocui patted him on the back the next second.
"Go where? You've never been a good scuba diver since you were a kid!"
"Ah Wan, don't go either. That Xue guy is no good!"
Fu Wan paused for a second before laughing, "It's alright, I'll just go see what tricks he's up to! Besides, Mom, who would turn down money!"
Xue Qing's high-profile search for people to join the business world must mean he has some kind of plan.
Fu Laoda remained silent, but in his heart he was thinking about taking out the diving suit that Zhao Gang had given him a few days ago and seeing if Fu Wan would need it.
If it's not as good as his family's heirloom mermaid robe, then he might as well wear the mermaid robe.
At the same time, a four-wheeled car silently stopped a hundred meters away from Fujia Village. Bai Qianzhou emerged from behind a tree, got into the car, and drove away.
At Fu Lao Er's house, Fu Qiang was sitting at the dining table bragging, "That Brother Xue looks like a rich man. If I work for him, wouldn't that be better than going out to sea to fish?"
Xue Qing gave him fifty yuan for leading him along a short distance today, which made him extremely happy.
Wang Zhaodi kindly placed a slice of meat on his plate, which she had bought with the money Fu Qiang had brought back.
Although Fu Lao Er had a smile on his face, he was more worried than anything else.
"Did he have some other purpose in letting Ah Wan, a girl, go out to sea with him?"
Grandma Wang slammed her chopsticks on the table. "Who cares about their motives? All our family cares about is money!"
Fu Qiang nodded in agreement, then said sarcastically, "Dad, your uncle's family doesn't respect you at all. You wouldn't be thinking of going to be all lovey-dovey with them now, would you?"
"I'm afraid they won't even let you in the door!"
Fu Lao Er didn't want to build a good relationship with Fu Lao Da Jia; he just felt that the whole thing was wrong.
"Never mind all that, I've already signed up for the fishing competition in three days. Even if I don't win the 300 yuan for first place, I'll still get a 10 yuan subsidy just for signing up."
"Ten yuan can buy a lot of meat."
It was all because of poverty that Fu Lao Er stopped talking.
After Fu Wan helped Chen Lingling wash up, they returned to their room. Lying on the bed, Fu Wan sighed, realizing how comfortable her own bed was. She hadn't slept well at all during her two days at the Ye family's house.
"Mom, Uncle Bai asked me to give this to you."
Shen Lingling reached for the bed and then remembered what was in her pocket. She quickly took it out and stuffed it into Fu Wan's hand.
Fu Wan picked it up and examined it closely; it turned out to be a long bamboo whistle.
What does Bai Qianzhou mean by this?
She asked Chen Lingling, "Did Uncle Bai say anything?"
Shen Lingling nodded. "Uncle Bai said that as long as you blow the whistle, he can find us."
Isn't that ridiculous?
It's probably just something to amuse little kids.
Fu Wan casually placed the whistle on the table, then coaxed Chen Lingling to sleep.
Fu Wan had a strange dream, whether it was because she was too tired today or because she had too many things to deal with. She even went back to the day she saved Bai Qianzhou in the sea.
But when she sank to the bottom of the sea to save him, he opened his eyes and smiled at her.
A man covered in blood is smiling at himself!
This was too bizarre; Fu Wan was so frightened that she woke up.
My forehead was covered in sweat, and my heart was pounding.
It's true what they say, what you think about during the day, you dream about at night. It's all Bai Qianzhou's fault for bringing up the matter of saving him during the day!
Artificial respiration is a perfectly normal thing, okay?
She took out her watch and saw that it was only a little past ten o'clock.
It's still early, I'll turn over and go back to sleep!
At that moment, in a restaurant in town, Xue Qing was clinking glasses with a Japanese man.
"Mr. Kujii, I hope we can have a pleasant collaboration!"
Jiujing laughed and said, "Sang Xue, don't worry. I have plenty of money, but the people I need must be able to go into the deep sea!"
Xue Qing didn't know how deep the deep sea was, but he was confident that Fu Wan would be fine. "Don't worry, even if she doesn't go, I'll kidnap her and take her there."
"But Mr. Kujii, you still haven't told me what exactly you're looking for at the bottom of the sea?"
Jiujing's smile faded slightly. "Sang Xue, there's an old saying in China: those who know too much don't live long."
"I'll pay you to do the job. Everything on the seabed except for the one we're looking for is yours."
