Holy crap!
Parker was incredulous and blurted out in a moment of impulsiveness, "He can't do it?"
Qin Yiheng's thoughts were suddenly pulled back.
"What did you say?"
"I understand!"
Parker, looking like he was trying to suppress a laugh, leaned forward and whispered, "We're all men, I understand those taboos~"
Is this kid saying Gu Si is no good?
Thankfully, Gu Si isn't here.
Qin Yiheng's lips twitched twice: "You don't know anything!"
Parker nearly bit his tongue: "Isn't that right?"
Qin Yiheng looked at him and said softly, "Young Master, there's a saying in my hometown: 'A man who doesn't respect himself is like a rotten leafy vegetable.'"
Parker looked completely bewildered: "???"
Finally, Qin Yiheng delivered the decisive blow: "Would you leave fresh, crisp cabbages to eat rotten leafy greens?"
“How could that be!” Parker’s expression of rejection was undisguised.
But the next second, his face turned ugly; the other person was clearly comparing him to rotten cabbage.
However, what he said made some sense.
Parker thought for a moment and asked, "You mean if I don't go looking for other women, Sweetie will agree to marry me?"
What are you daydreaming about? Qin Yiheng could only offer empty promises: "My brother-in-law said time will tell. You have to persevere, and once others see your determination, this will be a success."
However, Parker was still not satisfied: "If Sweetie keeps refusing to marry me, does that mean I can never find other women?"
Before Qin Yiheng could speak, Parker asked again, "Can I look for it secretly?"
Qin Yiheng really looked down on him a million times.
This also reminded him of his older cousin's ex-husband, who clearly liked other women but obeyed his family's arrangement to marry his older cousin. After marriage, he cheated on her and subjected her to emotional abuse. He was a complete scoundrel.
Luckily, he wasn't related to that girl, otherwise he would have started beating her up right now.
Qin Yiheng's voice turned colder: "This is your business, you decide for yourself."
Upon hearing this, Parker became more apprehensive and coughed twice, saying, "Well, you and Mr. Wu are both experienced people, so I'd like to learn from you!"
Qin Yiheng's eyes darkened slightly.
A self-deprecating smile appeared on his lips, but it vanished in an instant.
He is experienced?
Oh.
"It's getting late, we should head back. Thank you for your hospitality today, Young Master. Goodbye."
Qin Yiheng got up and left.
Parker hadn't expected him to leave so decisively. He wanted to call him back, but for some reason, he sensed that the other person was suddenly in a bad mood. He hesitated for a moment, and then the two of them had already left.
Soon, the captain came in.
"Young Master, are we just going to let them go like this?" the captain asked unwillingly.
Parker stared at the wound on his chin and sneered, "I could tell you to stop them, but can you actually do it?"
The captain was speechless.
Parker closed his eyes and made a decision: "From now on, apart from Sweetie, you must send any woman who comes to me away."
The captain was shocked: "Has Miss Ji agreed to marry the young master of the fortress?"
You really know how to bring up the most sensitive topic!
Parker looked at him coldly: "What, do I have to wait for Sweetie to agree to marry me before I can deal with those women?"
The captain broke out in a cold sweat and quickly explained, "No, no, I will definitely handle this matter properly for Shaobao."
Meanwhile, after leaving the villa, Qin Yiheng and Gu Yunzhen took a car back to the hotel.
As soon as Qin Yiheng entered his hotel room, he received a message from Hei Zi.
Ding Gang went to find him.
Qin Yiheng handed his phone to Gu Yunzhen: "What do you think?"
"Go." Gu Yunzhen turned and left.
Qin Yiheng raised an eyebrow when he saw him walk out without even sitting down: "Are you going too?"
Gu Yunzhen spoke the truth: "If something happens to you, I won't be able to explain it."
"Can't you wish me well for once?" Qin Yiheng followed him into the elevator, using Gu Yunzhen's tall and slender figure to stand in a blind spot where the camera couldn't capture the message. However, the reply message never went through. "No signal."
Gu Yunzhen said in a low voice, "Send it after we get out of the elevator."
That's the only way.
After leaving the hotel, Qin Yiheng finally turned on his phone, but there was still no signal.
"Something's happened!" he guessed.
Otherwise, it's impossible for an island to suddenly lose signal.
Gu Yunzhen lowered her eyes: "Let's go to the hospital first."
The two took a taxi to the hospital.
When they arrived at the hospital lobby entrance, there was still no signal, but they did see Ding Gang.
“My father wants to see you. Come with me,” Ding Gang said.
Qin Yiheng and Gu Yunzhen exchanged a glance and followed him into the emergency exit.
Taking the stairs instead of the elevator—is it because you want to talk to them but don't want to be caught on camera?
Qin Yiheng asked directly, "I wonder what business Mr. Ding has with us?"
Ding Gang said sullenly, "I don't know either."
Even as clever as Gu Yunzhen and Qin Yiheng were, they couldn't figure out what this former one of the twelve managers wanted with them. If it was because he found out they didn't have ID cards but had cell phones, he could have just reported them. There was no need to see them at all.
But to everyone's surprise, Mr. Ding's first words to them were—
"You are from Huaguo, right?"
After these words were spoken, the ward became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Qin Yiheng and Gu Yunzhen remained silent.
Mr. Ding looked at them with his cloudy and weathered eyes. You could clearly tell that he was old, but he was filled with an overwhelming hatred that swept through the entire ward.
"I am also from Huaguo."
“My home is located at No. 17 Huangyi Lane, Fuhua Avenue, Xizhou City.”
"When I graduated at twenty-four, I went out to sea with my classmates and we encountered pirates. It was the previous lord of the fortress who saved us. We thought we had been given a new lease on life, but we never expected that fifty-one years would pass since we came to this island. A full fifty-one years! I have never left, forgotten that I am from Huaguo, and forgotten my family..."
Mr. Ding spoke with great emotion, his words choked with tears. By the end, he was so engrossed in his speech that he lost his voice, covered his face with his hands, and burst into loud sobs.
His parents were still alive when he left home.
By the time he remembered home, he was already old, and his parents had long since passed away.
It is unfilial of him to let them lose their son in middle age.
It is unfilial of him to leave them with no one to care for them in their old age and send them off in death.
He's unfilial!
Mr. Ding was filled with great sorrow, regret, and hatred.
Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of blood onto the blanket and collapsed.
"dad!"
Ding Gang rushed forward and, seeing that he hadn't fainted, breathed a sigh of relief and comforted him, "The doctor said you can't get excited. You still need to go home to see your grandparents, right? Your grandparents know you didn't forget on purpose, so they won't blame you."
Mr. Ding was startled.
Yes, he wants to go back to Huaguo and go home to see his parents!
He grabbed his son's arm, using the strength to sit up, and said, "You have an aunt, she should still be alive..."
Ding Gang immediately declared firmly, "Auntie is definitely alive!"
This scene left Gu Yunzhen and Qin Yiheng with very mixed feelings.
They guessed that the people on the island had been hypnotized. Although they felt sorry for them, sympathy alone was not enough.
