Chapter 168: This Situation Can Be Waited

Today's Portsmouth Harbour Docks, unlike on weekdays, is filled with restless crowds. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The clouds in the sky have not completely dissipated, but the clouds that hang over people's hearts are getting heavier and heavier.

People have already received news from the newspapers that several ships have been killed in this unprecedented storm in the North Sea, and the horror of this storm can be known from the warships that entered the harbor without exception with all the terrib decks. It is known that five large vessels were killed, and the damage suffered by small fishing boats has not yet been counted.

Anxious eyes were fixed on the sea in the distance, and some were inquiring about each other, hoping to hear from their loved ones. Among the waiting crowd, the figure of a pretty Chinese woman in a Qing dress stood out.

Because she has been standing here from morning till night for two whole days.

Despite her haggard look, there was a suffocating beauty. Many people looked at her curiously, but her eyes were always focused on the sea, and she didn't hear the talk of the people around her.

"Come back...... Please......"

Lu Yingyan looked at the sea antenna in the distance and murmured softly.

During the period of Lu Yingyan's formal relationship with Lin Yizhe, not only were her previous suitors completely defeated by Lin Yizhe, but even her own family business was almost suspended, but she didn't care, she still dressed up brightly and dazzlingly all day long, happily waiting for his appearance.

Until she knew that he had a family, that quarrel.

And Lu Yingyan, who was ruthless and didn't see him, suddenly lost his company, although it had only been a week, she felt as if a century had passed.

Some things, only when they are lost, will they be found to be so important to themselves.

Thinking of her own willfulness and his gentleness, her heart was like a knife. She hung her head in pain, her hands wrenched together, and her knuckles turned white from too much force.

"Miss! Look! The ship is coming! The girl next to her suddenly screamed.

Lu Yingyan raised her head suddenly, looked at the sea, and sure enough, she saw a small black dot on the sea antenna, which seemed to be emitting a faint green smoke.

Lu Yingyan stared at this little black dot, and after a while, a boat shadow - no! Two boat shadows appeared. It's just that the boat in front is smoking, and the one behind, although it is also a steamer, has an empty chimney, and there is no smoke at all.

The shadows of the two boats gradually became larger, and people realized that the one in front was a warship, and the steamer that had tilted behind was towed by a warship!

There was a commotion in the crowd when they saw the steamer with two of its three masts broken and a mess on the deck.

"That's the Agamemnon! It didn't sink! It's saved! Someone couldn't help but shout.

"Oh God! Did it come back from Hell? ”

"Look! In front of it is the 'Thetis'! It was the Chinese who saved the 'Agamemnon'! ”

The two boats gradually sailed into the port, and the cheers and roars of the people around Lu Yingyan could no longer be heard, and her eyes were firmly fixed on the dragon flag flying in the wind on the mast.

Yes! It's the Dragon Banner! At this time, there will be no other warships flying the Chinese dragon flag! Only "Thetis"!

It's him! He's back!

By this time, the dock was already full of people. Lu Yingyan squeezed forward with all her might, and the people around her saw this Chinese girl in Qing clothes, realized something, and gave way to her.

"'Thetis'!" Thetis'! Well done! ”

"'Thetis'!" Thetis'! Long live the Chinese! ”

There was cheering all around, but Lu Yingyan couldn't hear it, and she looked unblinkingly at the cruiser Thetis heading for the dock, which was exactly the same as she had seen in the newspaper photos, except that the hull paint seemed to have been washed off, revealing its true colors.

Soon, the "Thetis" dropped anchor, and Lu Yingyan saw a Chinese captain on the flybridge giving orders, sailors waving flags, and the person who haunted him was standing beside the Chinese captain.

No more doubts! What you see with your eyes and hear with your ears is true! And tens of thousands of people were present as Witnesses. Seeing the "Thetis" and "Agamemnon" safely and facelessly, many people hugged excitedly on the shore, and the citizens of Portsmouth cheered and applauded at the miracle.

Lu Yingyan, who was crying with joy, covered her mouth with her hands, and let the tears gush out of her eyes, flow through her fingers, and drip down.

The "Thetis" slowly landed, lowered the trestle, several Chinese sailors carried several stretchers and walked down first, on the stretcher lay wounded sailors, a team of British sailors immediately ran forward, helped to take the stretcher, and went straight to the military hospital.

Seeing the appearance of the Chinese sailors, thunderous applause suddenly rang out on the dock.

When Lu Yingyan saw the injured Chinese sailor, her heart tightened again. I forgot that just now, he was still standing on the flybridge.

Finally, Lin Yizhe's figure appeared, he walked down the trestle with Lu Wenjing and other Chinese officers, and when he saw Lin Yizhe appear, a group of British Royal Navy officers who had been waiting at the dock immediately greeted him.

At this moment, a figure rushed out of the crowd like a fly, pounced in front of Lin Yizhe, and hugged him tightly.

Lin Yizhe was stunned at first, and when he saw who the person in his arms was, he couldn't help but hug her tightly.

Lu Yingyan felt his thick and powerful arms hugging her, and the familiar smell of the sea breeze emanating from him, and her chest was as if it was about to burst. She hugged him tightly, as if she was afraid that if she let go, he would disappear from her eyes.

She closed her eyes, her cheek pressed against his chest, and she was willing to hug him like this forever until the earth was desolate. The surrounding British naval officers watched this scene quietly, as if they were also moved, and no one made a sound to disturb them.

At this moment, it was as if time had stopped.

"You're back......"

"Hmmm......"

"I miss you so much......"

"I miss you too......"

"Don't leave me...... Good no good? ……”

"Good ......"

From afar, Coles watched the scene, expressionlessly took out bills ranging from £5 to £10 from his pocket, and stuffed them into the outstretched hands of his colleagues.

The sea breeze blew, and the dark clouds over Portsmouth Harbour began to dissipate, revealing golden glow through the cracks in the clouds, reflecting the people on the pier and the ships moored at the berths, making Portsmouth Harbour look particularly beautiful at this time.

Hong Jun's "Diary of the West": "...... Wen Qinxian escaped from danger and was very happy. During the storm in the North Sea, ships of many countries were damaged. The ship donated by the British king was operated by our sailors, and Yu Shang was worried that the ships were not familiar with each other, and he was worried when he heard the storm on the sea surface of the sea test. Unexpectedly, the ship was able to return safely, and on the way, it towed back the British freighter 'Agamemnon'. When the news came out, the British were full of admiration. …… That night, all the sailors went ashore to rest, and when they went to the museum to drink, they did not charge for alcohol. When the Chinese sailors came to the house, they were also entertained free of charge, and they did not take any money for prostitution, but they wanted to have fun. His gratitude is ......"

"Where is this?"

"Where I look at the sea."

The coachman turned the carriage to a path on the left, and the bustling city of London was now far behind. After a while, Lin Yizhe had already noticed that the carriage had reached the mountainside, the scattered houses were becoming more and more sparse, and the ocean was also fainting in his eyes.

After a while, the carriage stopped, and Lin Yizhe got out of the car and looked around, and found that there was a stone staircase climbing up the small hill. Lin Yizhe looked up and saw a beautiful small villa on the top of the mountain.

"Let's go!" Lu Yingyan said, holding Lin Yizhe up the stone steps, today she is still a set of moon-white brocade clothes, but it is not wide, but deliberately reflects her graceful and seductive figure.

Lin Yizhe felt her soft breasts touch his arm from time to time, and his heart also surged with the heat.

Lin Yizhe and Lu Yingyan walked towards the sheep intestine path in front of them like a couple; And Lin Yizhe didn't have to look back to know that the eyes behind him that were both jealous and envious must have been staring at their backs at this time.

After walking about a hundred yards, a sea view that was quite pleasing to the eye appeared in front of her, and under the clear sky of the blue sky and blue sea, Lu Yingyan walked lightly to a viewing platform surrounded by a railing, and looked at the ocean from the railing.

Strong winds began to blow on the mountain again, although the sun was still warm at four o'clock in the afternoon, but Lu Yingyan, who did not put on a coat, seemed to be overwhelmed by the wind and cold, she seemed a little shrunken and hugged Lin Yizhe's arm tightly, although it was just a casual small action, but Lin Yizhe immediately took the black blazer on his arm and put it on for her, this gentle and considerate act made Lu Yingyan's heart surge with a warm current.

"Thank you." She turned her head and spoke to him in an unusually gentle voice.

"Don't thank me." Lin Yizhe looked at her and laughed, "You should be nice to me." ”

"Why am I...... Want to be nice to you? She raised her head, looked at him, and smiled.

Lin Yizhe just laughed and didn't answer.

"Okay, then I'll be nice to you, who called me ......" Lu Yingyan blushed, she let go of his arm, but her fingers still clasped Lin Yizhe's hand.

She took him by the hand, left the observation deck, and walked towards the cottage.

"This is your villa?" Lin Yizhe looked at this small villa that was as beautiful as a fairy tale princess's castle, and thought of what might happen, and his heart was in a trance for a while.

"Don't you know that children always have their own little world?" Lu Yingyan turned her head to look at him, her eyes shining with a strange light.
