The days of hiding ended half a month later, and one evening, Xie Yongxin brought good news that the government of the hidden country had signed an agreement that the harbor area agreed to accept refugees as the first port of refuge.

Gu and her partners will finally be able to stay in the Bay Area temporarily in a legal capacity, and they will be resettled in temporary refugee camps, and then they will choose to apply for permanent residence in the Bay Area or apply for asylum in a European country.

Gu Qianyi decided to go to the refugee camp the next day, this night, Xie Yongxin stayed on Lamma Island, they went to buy shrimp and crabs from the fishermen, Gu Qianyi cooked a pot of thick seafood soup, and the two of them ate opposite each other by candlelight and moonlight, Xie Yongxin always secretly looked at Gu Qianyi, and finally once they met their eyes, Gu Qianyi smiled, she smiled and there was a small pear vortex at the corner of her mouth, like blooming stamens, which made people feel very sweet.

At night, Gu Qianyi slept on the bed, Xie Yongxin laid the floor, the moonlight was too good, and there was a tide in his ears, he couldn't sleep, tossing and turning, until Gu Qianyi coughed lightly and asked him, "Haven't you fallen asleep?" “

He hummed honestly.

Somehow, the topic came to Gu Qianyi's days at sea.

The days at sea are really hard, the breath is full of the saltiness of the sea and the uncleanness of the crowd, the ears are full of the sound of the waves and the cry of the child, every moment of the heart is hung for fear of encountering pirates or the waves capsizing, when she got on the boat, her mother was sick, every time the boat floated on the sea for a day, Gu Qianyi felt the footsteps of death a little closer, she was also seasick, suppressed nausea to take care of the sick, that kind of taste will never be forgotten for a lifetime.

Gu Qianyi lay on the bed, folded her hands on her chest, and quietly told Xie Yongxin: "I just memorized that passage from the Bible on the boat, the man who abandoned me and my mother was a Christian, and my mother believed in Christ with him and wanted me to believe it, but I hated that man and never refused to turn over the Bible until I stepped on that boat." “

Our Father in Heaven......

forgive us our debts, just as we forgive our debtors.

that we may not be tempted,

Deliver us from evil.

Thank God, God blessed her, she reached the other side safely, but her mother did not, her mother died on the ship, for the health of the ship and the safety of everyone, no body could be left on the ship, her body was thrown into the sea, drowned by the turbulent waves, left for Gu Qianyi as a souvenir, only an old cheap silver ring on her finger, which was a token given to her by her father back then, and she kept it for the rest of her life.

Speaking of the moment when she pushed her mother into the sea, Gu Qianyi finally couldn't help crying, she tried her best to suppress her crying, but she couldn't restrain the trembling of her body, the old bed made a rustling sound, Xie Yongxin got up from the ground, he knelt to the side of the bed, stretched out his hand and gently grabbed Gu Qianyi's cold arm.

When he took the ferry to the harbor area the next day, Xie Yongxin was still holding Gu Qianyi's hand on the boat.

Gu Qianyi is no longer as fragile as last night, her expression is light, please Xie Yongxin to help her do something, she said that she has friends in the harbor area, when she was in Vietnam, her mother had a friend who worked in the government, and in 75 the uncle left Vietnam for the harbor area with the whole family, she hoped that Xie Yongxin could help her investigate the whereabouts of this uncle, maybe he could take Gu Qianyi in.

Xie Yongxin agreed.

Gu Qianyi was finally placed in a refugee camp in Kai Tak, which was not very far from Xie Yongxin's home, and Xie Yongxin breathed a sigh of relief: "I will come to see you often." ”

Gu Qianyi didn't answer him, she was raising her head and looking at the sky intently, not far from here was Kai Tak Airport, and at this moment a plane was flying in the sky.
