After cleaning the wound, the doctor skillfully applied medicine and bandaged Gu Tingchen. The whole process went smoothly, and Gu Tingchen gradually felt that his wound was not so painful, and his mind became much clearer.
"Thank you so much for rescuing me. Can I ask you for one more favor? Please lend me your phone. I want to call my loved one and let them know I'm safe."
Just now, Gu Tingchen had searched his entire body thoroughly. His clothes had been exchanged with others, so he didn't have anything on him now, including his ID, money, and even his cell phone.
After he made his request, the sailors all looked embarrassed.
"It's useless to give you a cell phone. We are on the high seas here and there is no signal," said the sailor.
Gu Tingchen frowned upon hearing this and continued to ask, "When can I contact my family?"
"We have to wait until we dock, which will take three months." The sailor's words made Gu Tingchen despair. The ship actually had to drift on the high seas for three months!
"Three months? Is there any way to reach the shore as soon as possible?" Gu Tingchen frowned and fell into deep sorrow.
If he disappeared, Jiang Ranran and the others might mistake that person for themselves, wouldn't that mean they would think he was dead? Jiang Ranran and the children must be very sad now. When he thought of this, Gu Tingchen was heartbroken!
The sailors shook their heads helplessly: "There's nothing we can do. The voyage is planned and we have no say in it."
They looked at each other, and seeing that Gu Tingchen was now able to communicate normally and his emotions were stable, they finally asked the question that had been pent up in their hearts for a long time, "How did you end up floating on the high seas?"
Gu Tingchen knew he couldn't get off the boat anytime soon, and he still needed to spend some time with his saviors, so he decided to make the best of it and said, "I'm being chased, and my car is on fire..."
He sighed deeply and talked about what happened a few days ago.
When he walked out of the banquet, he drove his car to rush back to the company, but when he was halfway there, Gu Tingchen found that the car was shaking and making some abnormal noises.
Gu Tingchen was worried about danger, so he got out of the car to check it himself.
At this moment, he saw someone staring at his car from afar. When the person noticed Gu Tingchen's gaze, he quickly dodged away. Gu Tingchen vaguely felt that he was up to something, so he sneaked up on him.
When Gu Tingchen approached, he heard the man reporting the situation to someone, "Boss Shen, Gu Tingchen's car did break down, but he's not in danger for the time being."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Tingchen's arm was already on the man's shoulder.
The man was so frightened that he turned around stiffly and saw Gu Tingchen's very gloomy face.
"Chen Fei asked you to come?" Gu Tingchen curled his lips coldly, with a hint of ruthlessness and danger in his eyes.
Seeing that he was exposed, the man immediately became like a lapdog to Gu Tingchen, nodding and bowing: "Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu, please let me go. It really has nothing to do with me. It was Shen Fei who asked me to come..."
"Let me let you go? Okay, you drive the car and I'll watch." Gu Tingchen sneered and said with ill intention.
Upon hearing this, the man's face suddenly turned dark and he almost collapsed to the ground. "Ah? Mr. Gu, there's something wrong with that car. I'm going to drive it. I'm scared, I'm scared..."
"Are you afraid of death? If you don't go, be careful that I will call the police and put you in jail!" Gu Tingchen lowered his voice and became extremely stern, scaring the man.
"Going to jail? Going to jail is better than dying." The man was not stupid and shook his head repeatedly.
Seeing that he refused, Gu Tingchen came up with an idea. He took off his coat and watch and handed them to the man. "Put on mine and go drive. As long as you are obedient, these things are all yours."
"Are they all mine?" The man's eyes lit up. He knew that Gu Tingchen's outfit was very valuable, at least hundreds of thousands.
If he was lucky enough not to die and had these things, would he still need to work for Shen Fei and do this worthless business?
Thinking of this, the man's heart was moved.
He nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, I'll go, I'll go. Mr. Gu, you have to keep your word. If I come back alive, all these will be mine!" When he said this, his eyes lit up, which shows how much he loves money.
Gu Tingchen sneered: "Don't worry, I, Gu Tingchen, always keep my word. If I say I will give it to you, then I will give it to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man couldn't wait to put on Gu Tingchen's outfit, then sat in the car obediently, glanced at Gu Tingchen, and started the car.
Not long after driving out, the car caught fire. Gu Tingchen watched helplessly and felt a chill on his back.
He heard the man scream a few times in the car, and then there was no sound.
He was just about to rescue him, but at this moment, a group of people arrived. They couldn't be sure whether the person in the car was Gu Tingchen, so they called the man. At this moment, the phone in Gu Tingchen's pocket rang!
Only then did Gu Tingchen realize that when they were exchanging clothes just now, the man also gave him his cell phone!
The ringing of the phone quickly attracted the attention of the group. When they saw Gu Tingchen, they immediately understood that it was their men who were dead, but Gu Tingchen was still alive!
At a command, a group of people chased after Gu Tingchen and began a blatant manhunt.
They punched and kicked Gu Tingchen, "Our President Shen said, since you want to bankrupt the Shen Group, then he might as well kill you first!"
They beat Gu Tingchen while shouting.
In order to save his life, Gu Tingchen pretended to be unconscious. Only when they saw that Gu Tingchen was no longer moving did they stop.
"Was he beaten to death?" one of the voices asked.
"So he can't stand being beaten? I think he's quite big and strong." Another person answered, obviously not believing Gu Tingchen.
After a few seconds of silence, a vicious voice rang out, "Don't care if he's dead or not, just throw him into the high seas to feed the fish!"
So, Gu Tingchen was lifted up and prepared to be thrown into the sea.
He knew that he had no chance to fight back, and his only option now was to wait for an opportunity.
This group of people rode a speedboat and threw Gu Tingchen into the sea. Gu Tingchen waited until they were far away before opening his eyes and trying to swim away. However, in the vast ocean, Gu Tingchen was seriously injured again and fainted not long after.
When Gu Tingchen woke up again, he was already lying on the deck of the ship.
Fortunately, these sailors rescued Gu Tingchen, and he was lucky enough to survive.
