In order to facilitate storage in the plastic compartment of the wallet, the photos were specially cut into two-inch size.

Seeing that he was discovered by her, Pei Yang did not shy away and handed her the wallet openly.

"With your photos, I can have something to think about when I'm outside."

After hearing what the man said, Shen Mingzhu's eyes were slightly sore, and she couldn't help but want to persuade him again, to persuade him to give up his career as a seaman and stay at home, which might change the outcome of his early death.

However, before the words came to my lips, the phone in the living room rang.

Pei Yang turned around and went out to answer the phone.

Shen Mingzhu calmed herself down, put her wallet back on the table, and turned around to see Pei Yang standing outside the door with a dazed expression, as if he had experienced something earth-shattering.

"What happened? Who called?"

"Master said that the Tai'an has lost contact with the navigation control station."

Shen Mingzhu was also shocked when she heard that the Tai'an had lost contact. The Tai'an was the cargo ship that Pei Yang was originally going to take to sea this time.

"When did it happen?"

"The last contact was at 4 a.m. yesterday. The Tai'an reported that it had encountered a Category 7 storm and needed to change its route. After that, we lost contact."

Shen Mingzhu was speechless.

There are ten levels of sea storms, with level ten being the highest, but level seven sea storms are equally powerful. Moreover, the ocean climate changes rapidly, and the level of the storm is also varied and difficult to guard against.

Encountered a strong storm and lost contact for more than 24 hours...

Shen Mingzhu didn't dare to think about it anymore.

At the same time, a thought flashed through her mind: If Pei Yang’s seaman’s certificate had not been lost, but he had boarded the Tai’an as scheduled, would he... never be able to come back?

Thinking of this possibility, Shen Mingzhu felt a chill on her back.

By the time she came to her senses from the news that the Tai'an had lost contact, Pei Yang had already packed his luggage.

"Mingzhu, I have to go to Xicheng Port immediately."

Shen Mingzhu looked at him eagerly, her throat dry, "What can you do if you go there?"

Pei Yang squatted in front of her, holding her shoulders with both hands, his deep eyes revealing the determination of a mature man, "Mingzhu, every guy on the ship was brought up by me and my master. They are not only my partners but also my brothers. I should have been on the ship, too. Now that they are in trouble, I can't just sit back and watch."

"But what can you do?"

"I don't know, but I have to go right away."

Shen Mingzhu felt inexplicably panicked, with an indescribable feeling.

She subconsciously grabbed the man's hand.

The two held hands several times, but each time it was the man who took the initiative to hold her hand.

This time, she took the initiative to hold his hand.

The man's fingers were rough and slender, with thin calluses on the joints. The temperature of his fingers was higher than hers. When he held hers, it felt warm and safe, and she didn't want to let go.

"Pei Yang, have you ever thought about what would happen if you were on the ship this time? This job is really dangerous. Can you..."

Shen Mingzhu's throat choked slightly, and the ending tone was inexplicably soft, "I don't want you to go."

Pei Yang stared at her for a long while, then he stroked her fair cheek with his other big hand and said in a soft voice, "Mingzhu, you said before that you haven't made up your mind yet. I respect your thoughts and feelings, and I am willing to wait for the day when you open your heart to me. Similarly, I also hope that you can understand me and support my ideals and career, okay?"

Shen Mingzhu felt furious and wanted to yell at the man, "Go ahead. You won't be able to come back once you go. You will die outside."

But she also knew that even if she said so, the man would not listen.

Pei Yang still left.

Before leaving, he hugged her and kissed her for a long time.

I don’t know if it was because he was reluctant to part or because his kissing skills had improved, but the man kissed very gently this time.

From the moment the man left home, Shen Mingzhu suddenly felt that the house was empty, and her heart was empty too, as if there was a hole in it that could not be filled.

——

Pei Yang had just walked out of the family compound carrying his luggage when he bumped into Shen Baolan who was coming back from buying groceries.

Pei Yang had never had a good impression of Shen Baolan, and he was in a hurry to leave, so he didn't bother to say hello to Shen Baolan and just walked over. However, Shen Baolan stared at the luggage bag in his hand with her eyes bigger than copper bells.

Pei Yang had already walked far away, but she still chased after him eagerly.

"Pei Yang, Pei Yang!"

Pei Yang didn't want to pay attention, but Shen Baolan kept chasing him and shouting, so he had to stop.

"Shuhuan wife, are you okay?"

Shen Baolan pointed at the luggage bag in his hand and asked, "Where are you going?"

"Return to West City Port."

Shen Baolan looked as if she had been struck by lightning, just like the last time she heard Pei Yang say that he would leave in April.

"You're leaving? You're leaving now? Didn't you say you'd leave in April?"

"I'm in a hurry."

Pei Yang left after he finished speaking.

This time, Shen Baolan did not chase after him, but stood there staring at Pei Yang's back.

What day is today?

Oh yes, the 26th, March 26th.

In the dream, the news of Pei Yang’s death came back at the end of March.

Does that mean Pei Yang will not come back alive? So, the dream she had was real? Shen Baolan's heart suddenly started beating wildly.

The dream is true, Shen Mingzhu will become a widow, and she will become a rich lady! ?

——

As soon as Shen Baolan entered the house, she saw her mother-in-law Ma Sufen struggling to go to the bathroom with a cane.

Without saying a word, she put down what she was holding and ran towards Ma Sufen.

Ma Sufen was startled, thinking that Shen Baolan was going to hit her again, and subconsciously tried to hide. In panic, she fell to the ground with a thud, her teeth bared.

At this time, Shen Baolan had already walked in front of her.

Ma Sufen hugged her head in fear and despair.

However, the beating and scolding that he had imagined did not come. Instead, his arm was gently supported.

"Mom, why are you so careless? Come, let me help you up."

Ma Sufen stared at Shen Baolan, who was trying to please her, as if she had seen a ghost.

Shen Baolan not only helped Ma Sufen to the toilet, but also considerately helped Ma Sufen untie her belt. She even watched Ma Sufen until she finished urinating, helped her up, and helped her tie her belt without fear of the smell of urine.

After helping Ma Sufen back to the living room, Shen Baolan cut another plate of oranges.

The oranges are big and full, with bright yellow skin. Rich juice oozes out of the flesh, and even the air is filled with a rich and sweet orange scent.

Ma Sufen was so greedy that her saliva was almost dripping, but she didn't dare to eat it. Instead, she stared at Shen Baolan with fear and suspicion.

This wicked daughter-in-law has been treating her harshly and torturing her these past few days, not even giving her enough food to eat. Now she is suddenly being so nice to her. There must be something strange going on.

Maybe the orange was poisoned, trying to poison her! "Mom, have an orange. I bought it especially for you. It's so sweet."

"Take it away, I don't want to eat it!"

Ma Sufen was terrified, as if what was handed to her was not an orange but a deadly poison, and she raised her hand and threw the orange to the ground.

Shen Baolan was not discouraged at all, and her tone was still flattering, "Mom, what do you want to eat for lunch? I'll make it for you."

Ma Sufen didn't believe she would be so kind, and cursed, "Little whore, don't try that on me!"

Shen Baolan stared at Ma Sufen for a while, then suddenly stood up.

Ma Sufen thought the evil daughter-in-law's fox tail was exposed and was about to attack her, so she subconsciously stretched out her hand to block it, but -

thump.

Shen Baolan actually knelt down straight.

Ma Sufen almost dropped her jaw.
