Chapter 123: Gaining the Heart
By the time I walked back to the cabin, the wind was already quite strong. On the horizon, dark and thick clouds rushed towards this side with rolling thunder. From time to time, serpentine lightning flashed in the clouds. Compared to our side, it's like two worlds.
Xu Yue seemed to be afraid of thunder. There was a look of horror on his face.
Seeing me standing at the door looking at the sky, she bowed down and hid in the wooden house.
In another hour or two, the storm will blow to us.
Thinking of this, I can't help but worry about Zheng Shuang.
She herself was still guarding the shore. Although the tent can usually shelter from the wind and rain, if it encounters this kind of weather, it is not vulnerable at all. Other than that. This kind of weather can't sail at all, and if Zheng Shuang continues to stay there, it is meaningless.
"Gotta get her back!" I thought to myself.
But I'm not making a claim. After all, Zheng Shuang was sent by Wu Xiuwen to replace me. I have just gained Wu Xiuwen's trust now, and of course I am also suspicious of Cui Mingren. If I make my own decisions and take Zheng Shuang back, Wu Xiuwen will be angry. Cui Mingren will only profit from it and take the opportunity to squeeze me out. Reunite with Wu Xiuwen.
Thinking of this, I bent down and went into the wooden house to find Wu Xiuwen.
"Haidong. Did you find the dumb man?" Wu Xiuwen saw me come back. Hold up your body all at once. Apparently she wanted me to succeed as well.
"Nope. Sister Wu, I searched for half of the island, and I didn't see the shadow of the dumb man, he won't die, right?" I frowned with pretending to be annoyed.
"It doesn't matter. He couldn't hide. Let's see if Mr. Cui can get anything out of it!" Wu Xiuwen comforted me and said.
"Hmm. A storm is about to start. I think the dumb man might come back on his own. I said.
My statement made Wu Xiuwen's eyes light up.
She is a tour guide at sea all year round. I know how strong the storm is. Once a storm blows, it is possible for three days, five days, ten days and a half months. In such weather, there is no fire or food to be found outside, and even small animals are huddled in their nests.
The dumb man may not be able to stand it, and he will really run back.
"Heh, it's better to be like this!" Wu Xiuwen sneered and squinted his eyes.
"Sister Wu, why don't I go and have another look?" I said.
"No, it's going to rain soon, and it's useless for you to go out! Wu Xiuwen stopped me and said.
She didn't know, in fact, I wanted to see Zheng Shuang.
At this moment, the door of the wooden house was opened with a clang, and a man walked in.
Wu Xiuwen and I suddenly quieted down and looked outside vigilantly.
Seeing that it was Cui Mingren who walked in with an angry face, we relaxed our nerves.
"Why did you come back so soon?" Cui Mingren glared at me unhappily when he saw me and Wu Xiuwen in the house.
"Mr. Cui, Xu Yue and I have just come back, we have looked on the island, but we haven't found anything. It was going to rain again, and Xu Yue was afraid of thunder, so I sent her back. I hurriedly explained.
"Useless things! all of them are foodies!" Cui Mingren squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, and he didn't know whether to scold me or Xu Yue.
"Don't toss. In this kind of weather, even if you look for it again, you can't find a dumb person, so it's better to wait until he is hungry and can't stand it anymore and run back by himself. Wu Xiuwen saw Cui Mingren glaring at me fiercely, and said to me.
Cui Mingren was obviously also discouraged. Hearing Wu Xiuwen say this, he threw the gun on the bed, sat opposite Wu Xiuwen, and didn't speak with a bitter face.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became oppressive and breathless.
I originally wanted to say that I would call Zheng Shuang back, but I didn't know how to speak for a while.
