Chapter 5: Prelude to the Crisis

At five o'clock in the morning, looking out from the deck, the sea and the sky met, everywhere was pitch black, and a hazy light and shadow appeared on the horizon for a long time, and the east of the sea was gradually brightened. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's finally finished. Mu Xia propped himself on the mop and wiped the fine sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand, which was just the beginning of a day's hard work.

There are gradually more and more tourists waiting for the sunrise on the deck.

A familiar noise couldn't help but attract Mu Xia's attention.

"Hurry up, you won't be able to see it if you drag it out any longer. "Kita and his mom are engaged in a tug-of-war on the deck.

Unlike Beibei, who was in high spirits, Sister Lin was sleepy-eyed and reluctant, and was dragged forward by Beibei.

"Lack of sleep is a woman's natural enemy, you are murdering in disguise, you unfilial son. ”

"Whoever went to bed with an excited face said he wanted to see the sunrise. ”

"Women are notoriously duplicitous, little brats!"

Mu Xia watched the two of them gag, and felt that his tired body suddenly relaxed a lot.

"Hey, do you want to see the sunrise? He beckoned to the two men at the bow of the boat.

When Beibei saw his acquaintance, he immediately let go, threw down his mother, who was still dead-faced, and rushed over.

"Brother is early, you also come to see the sunrise?"

"I'm not as good as you. Mu Xia shook the mop in his hand and smiled bitterly.

Sister Lin yawned and followed, and then the tourists on the deck suddenly shouted excitedly, "It's coming out!"

The small point north is completely blocked by the deck fence, and nothing can be seen.

"Brother Xia, hurry up, hug Beibei. He anxiously opened his hand to Mu Xia, and was surprisingly close to Mu Xia.

Mu Xia lifted him above his head and sat firmly on his neck, Beibei pulled his hair and opened his round eyes in anticipation.

Sister Lin glanced at them, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, and she didn't make any noise to go back to sleep, she leaned lazily on the railing, her scattered hair blowing in the wind, and looked towards the sky.

The pale red sun leaked out of the corner of the sea, and the black and boundless sea was instantly draped in red veil. It jumped up from the sea for a small half, and the light turned from red to gold, turning into ten thousand rays of fine light piercing the sky, and rows of stratus clouds in the air were like gold armor.

"It's amazing!" Beibei on Mu Xia's neck jumped as if riding a horse, and Mu Xia's hair became a rein, pulling it up and down.

Mu Xia gasped, but he didn't cry out in pain, but just grabbed his little short leg tighter.

After a long time, the sun gradually became dazzling, and it was no longer suitable for appreciation, and the tourists came and went quickly, and most of them went back to the cabin to sleep, and the deck suddenly became sparse.

"Come down Beibei, how long are you going to sit?" Sister Lin hugged Beibei down. "By the way, did that bastard captain still embarrass you?"

"It's fine. Mu Xia didn't answer directly, and saw the jade pendant around her neck, green and delicate, with a pure luster like glass, like a valuable glass jadeite, so she couldn't help but remind, "Sister Lin should put the pendant away, and the wealth will not be visible." ”

Sister Lin pinched the pendant and looked at it for a while, "Actually, we came here to find a liar." Then he said to Mu Xia as if he was joking. "Actually, women are very easy to deceive, you can see a broken pendant and you can do it. ”

"I don't care, you better find me a stepfather. Beibei listened to Sister Lin's words and said suddenly.

"Hehe, that's what I thought. Sister Lin stroked his little head. "But what if your future stepfather abuses you. ”

"What's the matter...... You're abusing me a lot anyway. Beibei became a little choked up as he spoke.

"Of course there is a relationship, one person who abuses you is enough. Sister Lin pinched Beibei's reddened little nose and said with a smile. "Mom has one Beibei, it's enough, it's okay. ”

Mu Xia has no family and has never felt family affection, looking at Sister Lin and Beibei, I feel an inexplicable warmth.

After a while, Sister Lin turned her head and said to Mu Xia. "Beibei Papa is a scientist at the Nature Foundation, and he has been doing research in the tropical rainforests of Borneo for the past few years, and he can't go home once a year. A few days ago, his research institute called and said that he had an accident and asked me to come over and deal with his aftermath. ”

"I work every day, and I just got married and ran to Borneo alone, and Beibei doesn't know if I can still remember what he looks like, so this time I want to take Beibei no matter what, to see him for the last time. ”

"You...... Do you hate him?" asked Mu Xia suddenly.

"Of course, it is the first time I have seen such an irresponsible man without our orphans and widows. Sister Lin said very simply. "But...... I knew that I could not outweigh his dreams anyway. ”

"When he's at home, he always likes to tell me about his work, but I don't care, when the mountain gorillas in Uganda are gone, that's not something I should consider as a little woman. She looked helpless when she said this.

But when he said this, he was happy, not pretending, but genuinely loving what he did. Sister Lin's expression became relieved. "If God lets him know the result and lets him choose again, I think he will still leave my mother and son to come to Borneo, but he will bring the amulet with him. ”

"So Beibei, don't learn from your stupid dad when you grow up. ”

"What the hell is a man's dream!! Sister Lin shouted at the top of the ocean.

Mu Xia faintly saw tears in Sister Lin's eyes, but they were quickly taken away.

"Sure enough, your family is amazing!" Mu Xia said.

Sister Lin and Beibei looked at him with some puzzlement.

"Your husband is amazing, Beibei is amazing, Sister Lin...... Actually, I'm still not used to it, or I'd better call you Aunt Lin. ”

"Hey, why isn't Sister Lin very, very, very great, the kid has a kind of say it again!" Sister Lin raised her pink fist and was about to fight, Beibei giggled, and suddenly made a mess.

Beibei saw that Mu Xia's cheeks were still a little swollen, and hurriedly took out a few pieces of white tape from his small pocket, "I almost forgot, I heard my brother and sister in the next cabin say that it is very effective in reducing swelling, and Beibei specially asked for it for my brother." ”

Sister Lin took the tape from Beibei's hand and tore it open, and said to Mu Xia, "Don't move, or it will stick to your mouth." ”

Mu Xia stood still like a piece of wood this time, and obediently asked her to put the tape on, and the white tape occupied one left and one right, and most of his face.

This time he didn't say thank you, in this world, most of the sons are cowards, and they never say thank you to their mothers easily. Mu Xia is not her son, but he has become a coward at the moment.

"Muh! At this moment, a rough male voice sounded behind him, and although the owner of the voice was not tall, he was unusually thick, and his arms were covered with hideous painted tattoos.

Mu Xia looked at the person who came, so he had to say to Sister Lin: "You can't be lazy anymore, it's still early, go back and rest when you're tired." ”

"Go ahead, long-winded. Sister Lin seems to be still angry about what Mu Xia just said.

"This is for you, you have to listen to your mother. Mu Xia took out a candy and stuffed it into Beibei's hand, the outer layer of the candy was wrapped in transparent red flower paper, which was crystal clear in the sun.

"Go ahead, long-winded. Beibei grabbed the candy and said in Sister Lin's tone.
