Chapter 456 The Mystery of the Biological Father
"Ah!" Lin Wanxia apologized, "I'm sorry! I didn't know it would be like this."
Alex shook his head, "I don't care. After all, I don't remember much about her."
How could a woman from that kind of place live a hundred years?
"Aren't you afraid that it will be a waste of time? It will be a waste of time. What if I'm not your sister?" Lin Wanxia asked.
Although Alex's words made sense, Lin Wanxia still felt it was untrue.
Alex asked Lin Wanxia, "How old are you? When is your birthday?"
Lin Wanxia certainly wouldn't say at this time "A woman's age is a secret."
She told him frankly, "Theoretically, I'm two years younger than my ID card."
Lin Wanxia took out her ID card and handed it to Alex.
Her first-generation ID card was still sealed with handwritten plastic.
Alex glanced at the Arabic numerals above, subtracted two years, and smiled, "I knew you couldn't be my sister. Haha, I'm one year older than you! You should call me brother."
Lin Wanxia: "..."
The words of rebuttal came to her lips, and she remembered the first question Alex asked her on the cruise.
"What if one day you find out that you have a younger brother?"
Her heart softened, she smiled, and swallowed back what she wanted to say.
Lin Wanxia still thought it was impossible.
Lin Shusheng has lived in the island city for many years, how could he have a son older than her?
This is unrealistic.
But the answer to this mystery is probably only Lin Shusheng can give.
Before finding Lin Shusheng, it would be futile to say anything, so Lin Wanxia changed the subject, "When do you plan to let the Xingyue leave? I can't leave for too long. You have seen my husband. He will go crazy if I go missing. In addition, the officers and soldiers on our escort ship will definitely investigate if they lose track of the Xingyue.
You don't want to expose your island for the time being, right?"
Alex subconsciously said, "Impossible! This island is a fog array. If you don't know the center of the array, no one can get in. Even if thousands of troops come..." It's useless.
The three most determined words were played back when he saw Lin Wanxia's half-smile.
Thousands of troops couldn't get in, but Lin Wanxia got in.
Alex asked in confusion: "How did you get in?"
"The great white shark brought me in."
Alex was still confused, opened his mouth, and then closed it.
He wanted to ask the great white shark how it knew the way.
But, it was obvious that the great white shark would not be able to answer him.
Lin Wanxia thought for a while and guessed: "Your fog array is probably similar to some of the Bagua arrays in our country. It can confuse people but not animals."
Alex nodded repeatedly, "Yes! That makes sense! Oh, yes. I heard that your ancestors lived on this island a long time ago. Then I don't know why they got it and sold it. It was purely an accident that I got here."
But he likes this place very much.
It makes him feel safe here.
How can you sleep peacefully when you are living on the edge of a knife?
Just like he killed his predecessor, there are always pirates who want to kill him.
Lin Wanxia understood, "This is indeed a good place. But my thousands of tourists can't stay here forever, right? Although your fog array has a history, you can't guarantee that there will be capable people outside who can break your fog array. Then your comfortable nest will be gone."
Alex raised his wrist and looked at the watch, "Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, the fog will dissipate."
"Okay!" Lin Wanxia stood up and was about to say goodbye when she heard Alex countdown, "10...9...8..."
Lin Wanxia was stunned for a moment before she remembered the time difference problem Alex mentioned.
When Alex's countdown reached zero, Lin Wanxia spoke out of nowhere: "Happy New Year!"
"Happy New Year!" Alex, like a harmless big boy, excitedly invited Lin Wanxia, "Let's go set off fireworks!"
"Ah? You can set off fireworks? Aren't you afraid that others will see it?"
"Don't worry, the fog array is not fake, it can't be seen from outside. And the island is some distance away from the fog, so it can't be heard from outside."
Since we are here, we might as well make the best of it.
Lin Wanxia followed Alex to the garden outside.
In the middle, she tried to call Jiang Sinian, but found that her phone was out of battery.
Jiang Sinian must be anxious now, right? !
Alex obviously had a lot of money, and he set off rows of fireworks.
Although it couldn't compare to the most dazzling and gorgeous fireworks she had seen before she crossed into the book, it was already the most fashionable fireworks in the 1980s.
It is said that men stay young until they die.
Whether it was fake or true, Alex was like an ordinary little boy at this moment, holding a cigarette and lighting fireworks one by one.
***
Early the next morning, as Alex said, the fog on the island dissipated.
The cruise ship set out again to its intended destination.
The fog dispersed and gathered at the same time.
The Star-Moon passed through the fog and turned back, and the stern was shrouded in fog again.
The frigate was parked outside the fog.
Lin Wanxia was not surprised to see Jiang Sinian appearing on the frigate.
Lin Wanxia boarded the frigate.
Jiang Sinian was relieved to see Lin Wanxia was unharmed.
Lin Wanxia noticed the bloodshot under Jiang Sinian's eyes, and was afraid that he had not slept all night.
However, this was not a good time to reminisce. Lin Wanxia told the officers and soldiers of the frigate what had happened.
He only said that the cruise ship accidentally crashed into the small island in the fog, and came out this morning when they saw the fog dissipate.
He also said that he had misunderstood Alex, and it was not him who hijacked the Xingyue, but he saved everyone on the Xingyue.
There are often unusual weather phenomena at sea, and it is normal to have fog.
The leader of the frigate said hello to Jiang Sinian and continued the escort.
Jiang Sinian and Lin Wanxia are on their way back.
The whole world knows about Lin Wanxia's killer whale mount, and she is too lazy to hide it.
"My phone is out of battery, sorry to make you worry!" Lin Wanxia touched Jiang Sinian's face, feeling a little distressed.
"I'm glad you're okay." Jiang Sinian shook his head, "Why did you lie and say the cruise ship was just lost?"
"Because he said he is my half-brother. I don't want anything to happen to him until this matter is clarified."
Jiang Sinian: "..." He
was so shocked that he almost slipped off Taotao's back.
"You and Alex are brother and sister? How is that possible?"
They are not the same skin color at all.
Lin Wanxia shrugged, "Who knows? I'm afraid only Lin Shusheng knows the answer to this question."
"Lin Shusheng?"
"My father in the biological sense, and also Alex's father."
Jiang Sinian: "..."
"Oh, by the way, he is not simple. Wait until the New Year to take a vacation, right? When you are on vacation, let's go back to the island city to look for him! Alex said he is not a good person. He may have been a spy back then."
Jiang Sinian took a breath.
"It's surprising, right? I think it's fantasy too." Lin Wanxia yawned, "I didn't sleep all night, it was like a dream."
Unfortunately, the sun has risen, and she hasn't woken up from this dream yet.
