The boss looked at her suspiciously, "As long as there is no heavy wind and rain, it is here." ”

"Then you have been in this restaurant business for a long time, are you familiar with the people who come and go to the dock?" Jiang Ruo was a little nervous in his heart, and turned his head from time to time to look at the other side of the road.

"There are so many people on our island, almost everyone comes here. ”

The boss avoided Jiang Ruo's gaze when he spoke, and he didn't have too much expression on his face, and he lowered his head and continued the work at hand throughout the whole process.

"What about the people on the transport ship?" Jiang Ruo tried his best to show the relaxed appearance that the chat should have, for fear of arousing his suspicion and rejection if he was too straightforward, and planned to follow the temptation, "Do they occasionally settle meals here?"

The boss suddenly looked up at her, his eyes full of wariness, and he seemed unwilling to talk to her more.

The rejection and indifference on that simple face gave Jiang Ruo a premonition that his plan would fail.

The boss was silent for a moment and asked her, "What are you asking these for?"

Jiang Ruo smiled very gently and casually: "It's nothing, I just think that there are not many people on the island, and if the restaurant is only patronized by people on the island, the profit may not be too much." ”

The boss seemed to let down his guard, nodded and replied: "Indeed, after walking a few steps home, everyone will make a living by ordering seafood, and there is not much money, who will waste money with me, except when the boat comes." The ship's staff do eat here very often. ”

Jiang Ruo smiled and gave a support, which was also close, "Since you are not an islander, you can give them an appropriate price increase." ”

The boss smiled and didn't answer.

Seeing that he couldn't talk anymore that day, Jiang Ruo hurriedly took advantage of the good atmosphere and asked, "I'm a little curious, every time the ship comes, are the crew members the same? ”

The boss said, "Yes, but that's all there is to it." ”

"Aang, then you know all of them, right?"

The boss cleaned up the clams a few times, and put them under the boiling water, "Of course we know each other after coming and going." ”

Jiang Ruo asked him, "Can you do me a favor?"

"What?" the boss's gaze returned to his previous appearance, as if she was going to ask him to do something murderous and arsonous.

Because in his eyes, Jiang Ruo is not a serious person.

In his cognition, no serious woman would have a big belly and live under the same roof with several men.

Jiang Ruo organized the language in her heart, if she asked him to help with the crew and let people help her leave, it seemed unrealistic, and she needed money to ask someone to do things, and she was penniless now.

Jiang Ruo thought about it, and only the malachite bracelet on his hand was worth a little money.

She said, "Can you please do me a favor?"

He hesitated, "Help what?"

The boss was even more curious about the origin of this woman, it stands to reason that what she needs, just let those men do it, why should she find him?

Here, Jiang Ruo didn't know if Ah You had mentioned their intentions to these people, let alone whether these islanders knew that she was a hostage.

If she doesn't figure out the situation first, wouldn't it be better for a blind person to touch the elephant, if she falls into someone else's way, she won't be busy in vain in the end.

Jiang Ruo lowered his head, raised his wrist and touched it, deliberately revealing the bracelet, "I don't know if the boss knows why I'm here?"

The boss casually blurted out the results of the islanders' mutual speculation: "Aren't you the daughter-in-law of Aunt Chen's family who came to give birth?"

Locked in the room this morning, when Aunt Chen went out to train Ah You, she said that she couldn't let them spoil Ah He, and she suspected that the "Ah He" in Aunt Chen's mouth was Sui He.

If this is the case, if she is the daughter-in-law of Aunt Chen, then wouldn't Sui He ......

Jiang Ruo instantly felt a little angry.

Jiang Ruo smiled distorted and embarrassed, "How do you know?"

The boss thought to himself, sure enough, stared at the jewelry in her hand that seemed to be worth a lot of money, and said with a smile: "Everyone guessed." ”

Jiang Ruo thought that Ah You had come to the dock to say it before, but since these islanders had guessed it, she would have calculated it.

She smiled shyly and said, "The city is smoky, and I am a little unwell, and the air on the island is good, so he asked me to come and live for a while." ”

The boss was curious and asked her, "......Who are the men with you?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Jiang Ruo in the distance.

Jiang Ruo looked at it, Chen Shan bought a cigarette, and was leaning on the container to chat with the island-style proprietress, I don't know what he said, he wanted to bite the cigarette into his mouth with a smile, and the proprietress was so laughed by him that she trembled.

Jiang Ruo was looking at her, Chen Shan was coming and going, with a smile on his face that he had time to take away, and his eyes were indeed looking at her for a long time.

Jiang Ruo's heart tightened instantly, afraid that he would find out what he was, so he pretended to wave and smile at him calmly.

Turning to the boss, he said, "They're all bodyguards." ”

The boss raised his eyebrows, it seems that Mrs. Chen's son is really mixing well, and his wife is equipped with so many bodyguards when she goes out.

Jiang Ruo lowered his voice again and whispered: "But these people, five big and three coarse, are not serious people, and I don't dare to hand over some things to them, for fear that they will be greedy." Jiang Ruo took off his bracelet, "This bracelet is bought for more than 30,000 yuan, and it can be sold for a lot of money when it is sold second-hand." ”

The boss's son is working outside the home, and he has just enough money to support himself, and he has almost no money left over for them, and sometimes he has to help them. His shop, excluding the capital, can't earn one-third of this chain in a year, rain or shine.

He asked, "What do you want me to help?"

Jiang Ruo said: "It's not a trouble, do you have a mobile phone?"

"There's no signal here, and there's no use for mobile phones. ”

"Then you can ask the crew on the transport ship, who is close to you, to call my husband and ask him to send me some money. Jiang Ruo said, "Aunt Chen, she has some opinions about me, I plan to wrap a red envelope for her, let her be happy, and I can live comfortably here." I don't dare to let those men do this for me, who knows how much they will swallow? I'm a weak woman, and I'm a pregnant woman......"

The boss looked at the bracelet that had been taken off her hand and was very moved.

Jiang Ruo was anxious and urged: "Boss, okay?" she said, stuffing the bracelet into the boss's hand, "You take this first, and when I get the money, I will give you a red envelope at that time." ”

The boss thought that it was just a phone call, it was really not troublesome, since Aunt Chen's son could afford to hire so many bodyguards, he also had some foundation, and this bracelet must be true!

He clenched his bracelet, nodded and said, "Okay, you give me the phone number." ”

Jiang Ruo was glad that the mobile phone numbers of several people closest to him could be memorized.

When the boss took out a crumpled notepad and ballpoint pen from his apron, Jiang Ruo recited Lu Huaishen's phone number: "182......"

As soon as she recited the three numbers, she felt someone approaching behind her, and the next moment, a strong and powerful arm full of tattoos crossed her shoulder, took away the paper and pen in the boss's hand, and ripped away the bracelet that the boss was holding tightly in his hand.

The boss and Jiang Ruo looked at each other.

Jiang Ruo turned around, Chen Shan looked at the three numbers on the book, and then looked at Jiang Ruo.

Jiang Ruo's heart was like a drum, his expression and body were stiff, staring at him, not knowing what to say for a while.

Chen Shan didn't say a word, returned the notebook and pen to the boss, then took Jiang Ruo's arm, raised her hand, and put the bracelet back on for her.

Jiang Ruo was very obedient and didn't dare to be tough at all.

Chen Shan didn't lose his temper, and was even surprisingly silent, but Jiang Ruo felt a suffocating discomfort.

She knew that this was her only chance, and she also knew that Chen Shan would never let her go and trust her again.

Chen Shan's hands were very large and rough, his nails were trimmed short and clean, almost sticking to the flesh, and the locks of the bracelet were too small, so Chen Shan worked for most of the day.

Jiang Ruo held his breath, while the boss stared at him, but he didn't make a sound, only the sound of the waves crashing on the shore could be heard.

When she put on the bracelet, Chen Shan urged the boss as if nothing had happened, "Hungry, hurry up." ”

After speaking, he sat straight to the starting position.

Jiang Ruo pretended to be relaxed, pouted at the boss, and had an expression of "I'm sorry, I'll cooperate next time".

When the boss saw it, he didn't dare to look at her again.

Jiang Ruo also sat back at the greasy table, Chen Shan ignored her, biting the cigarette in his mouth, squeezing his eyebrows, lowering his eyes to look at the words on the cigarette box in his hand, and refusing to answer her.

Until the noodles came up, Chen Shan took a big bite of noodles, Jiang Ruo moved his chopsticks, every time he wanted to eat, he would notice the shiny tabletop, and suddenly he had no appetite.

And the taste of the noodles, the smell of fishy and oily are very strong.

Chen Shan finished eating a bowl, looked at her, and asked, "Don't eat it?"

Jiang Ruo shook his head, "It's too tired." ”

Chen Shan also fished out her bowl and ate it together.

Jiang Ruo ordered a small portion, his appetite was in contrast to his body size, and this small bowl was nothing to him.

After eating, Chen Shan settled the bill.

It was getting late, Chen Shan got up and said, "Let's go." ”

Jiang Ruo didn't know why, knowing that there was no chance, but he still wanted to stay, wanted to wait, and wanted to fight for another opportunity. It seems that as long as you go, you can only be in prison, and you can no longer break free.

"Sit down a little longer. Jiang Ruo seemed to be glued to the stool with his buttocks, motionless.

Chen Shan's eyes were fixed on her face, his face was expressionless, and his tone was not heavy, just emphasizing a fact to her: "It's getting dark." ”

Jiang Ruo raised his eyes to look at him, his eyes full of pleading.

That look, like a deer who was in a panic and could only beg for mercy, and the familiar gaze made Chen Shan shake fiercely, and his heart was shaken.

Just like just now, he went to buy cigarettes, deliberately created an opportunity for her, bought cigarettes and didn't leave, and looked at her quietly, but every time she cast a panicked look, Chen Shan was very tormented in his heart.

On the one hand, brotherly morality, on the other hand, compassion.

Xu Lang is right, even if she is forced to repeat the mistake of Jiaojiao, she is only a hostage after all.

And he and the delicate child are still waiting for him to go back.

Chen Shan looked at her eyes, gritted his teeth, his eyes were fierce, and he shouted: "Let's go!"
