Connected.
Wu An said, "Hello."
Ah Qing shouted, "Brother, what's going on?"
"I can't get through to you on the phone."
"I asked around and finally found my sister-in-law's phone number."
Wu An snorted: "You're back, huh?"
"So you still remember to call me."
"You've gotten too bold, haven't you? You actually dared to stay overnight at sea, especially with all that rain yesterday. Are you and Lao Fu out of your minds?"
He had originally intended to speak politely to Aqing, but as they talked, he got a little carried away.
His tone also became sharp, carrying a hint of reprimand.
But that's okay.
Even if he were to say something harsh, Aqing would have to listen.
If he hadn't been right there, he would have kicked Aqing to teach him a lesson.
Ah Qing said cheerfully, "Brother, you're back, you're back."
"Old Fu and I are both fine, you don't need to worry."
"Let me tell you, Lao Fu and I brought back a lot of seafood this time, almost the same as when we went out to sea before."
"The harvest from the ground traps is excellent."
"Old Fu and I went to take shelter from the rain and played in the puddles. We ended up having a good time."
"It got too late before we knew it."
"And longline fishing..."
Before Ah Qing could finish her sweet talk, she heard Old Fu shout, "Why say so much on the phone? Let's talk when we meet."
"We're about to dock, hurry up and get ready."
"Don't forget to tell Ah An that we're going to town."
Ah Qing responded and said, "Brother, it's hard to explain in a short time. Let's talk about it when we meet."
"This harvest was good; we'll sell it in town."
Wu An said "okay," and he could tell that although A Qing's words were full of excitement, they also carried a deep sense of fatigue.
The two of them must have put in a lot of effort on yesterday's voyage.
He didn't say much, only that he would be home before noon.
Hang up the phone.
Wu An breathed a sigh of relief; the weight that had been hanging over him finally lifted.
Turn around.
Seeing that Gu Anran was still lying on the bed in the same position, motionless, he knew that Gu Anran had woken up.
He went to bed with a smile.
He lay back down, his hand pressed against the sheet, and slipped under Gu Anran's hair.
With his other hand, he pulled Gu Anran into his arms.
Gu Anran kept her eyes closed, but she held his hand tightly in her arms.
The two were pressed together, and apart from the sounds of their bodies rubbing against the sheets and blankets, they could clearly hear each other's heartbeats quickening.
Gently sensing it, Wu An was certain he wasn't dreaming; this was reality.
"Get up?"
"Um."
"Get up."
"Don't move your hands."
"I didn't."
"You...hmm...um..."
Gu Anran couldn't hold back Wu An's mischievous hands at all, so she quickly turned around, opened her eyes, and glared at him with shame and anger: "Stop messing around."
"I want to get up."
Wu An looked completely innocent: "I didn't stop you."
How am I supposed to get up and get dressed like this?
"Then should I close my eyes?"
Can you?
Do you believe it?
"I don't believe you, you big idiot!"
Gu Anran pouted. Last night, she was like she was under a spell, believing everything Wu An said.
What Mingming said sounded very fake, but by the time she realized it, it was too late.
To be precise, it's all...it's all over.
She won't fall for it again now.
"Let's hug a little longer and then get up together."
"Who wants to get up with you?" Gu Anran said, then buried her head in Wu An's arms.
The two hugged each other tightly.
Wu An didn't make any more moves.
I'm not tired, I just respect Gu Anran.
"Are we going to the pharmacy to buy medicine later?"
"Need not."
Why?
"I wore it."
Where did you come from?
"I bought it in advance... cough cough... I saw it at the pharmacy and just happened to be there."
"Bad guy~"
"hey-hey."
The two cuddled together for a while longer before Wu An got up first, put on his bathrobe, and went to the front desk.
I can't stay out of bed anymore.
If I don't get up soon, I definitely won't be able to leave the house for the entire morning.
There are still important things to do.
He returned to his house.
Wash up.
Get dressed.
After drying his hair, he took out his phone to check and replied to several messages. He mainly asked people to review the contract and confirm that there were no problems so he could go to the shipyard to sign the contract with the manager later.
After finishing his work, he realized that Gu Anran hadn't come to find him yet, so he quickly ran to knock on the door.
Gu Anran opened the door.
Upon seeing him, she turned and walked into the house.
Looking at her back, Wu An noticed that Gu Anran's walking posture was a bit strange.
He asked, "Are you alright?"
Gu Anran turned around and rolled her eyes at him: "Don't you know whether I'm okay or not?"
"Wait a moment, I'll be right there."
Wu An walked in and saw the wet sheets, and suddenly realized what was going on.
No wonder Gu Anran didn't come out for so long.
So they're cleaning up the battlefield.
"We don't need to wash it; someone will take care of it."
"That's not good."
"Maybe people are just used to the cleaning."
"Stop talking! Don't say it anymore, it's all your fault..."
"Yes, yes, it's my fault, it's my fault."
He chuckled and hugged Gu Anran.
Gu Anran struggled for a moment, then reached out and hugged him.
They dawdled and didn't leave until after nine in the morning.
I haven't checked out.
All the bags and packages can be put in the room first.
I'll come back and pick it up after I finish my business.
After leaving the hotel, we walked a few steps to a dim sum restaurant. There weren't many people in the restaurant, so the two of us ordered quite a few things.
They were both starving.
After wolfing down my food for a while, I finally paid 158 yuan.
Gu Anran rubbed her stomach: "I can eat so much."
"I need to work hard to make money."
"To help ease the burden of eating."
Wu An was overjoyed.
Look at this girl, her values are so upright they're almost wicked.
The two hailed a car and headed straight for the shipyard.
Manager Wang was overjoyed to see Wu An arrive. To be honest, he had thought this deal would fall through like the previous ones.
Sign and stamp.
After the contract was signed, Manager Wang grabbed Wu An's hand and said that he wanted to set up a table for lunch.
Wu An waved his hand.
Ask Manager Wang to keep a close eye on production and ensure timely and high-quality delivery.
After some arguing, Wu An and Gu Anran took a car back to the hotel and checked out of the room.
I asked around about satellite phones, went to the largest telecommunications store in the county, got a special SIM card, and spent over 8,000 yuan to buy a satellite phone.
It doesn't have many functions; it's just for making phone calls.
Even so, the salesperson said there was a promotion.
Currently, China does not have its own satellites, so not only are mobile phones imported, but they also use foreign satellite mobile communication services.
After completing the formalities, the two hailed a taxi.
Compared to when they arrived, they were quite well-off, with large and small bags, not to mention the valuable gold jewelry. If they encountered a pickpocket on the road, it would be troublesome.
Taking the bus is a bit risky.
We arrived in town.
Wu An had the driver take Gu Anran directly to the village, while he went to the market, where A Qing and Old Fu were waiting for him.
