The tide was loud, and there was only a slight light around.
Qu Wanni opened her eyes and found herself lying on a bed in a cabin.
This is where? She stood up, and just when she was about to get out of bed, she realized that her feet were aching.
"Miss, are you awake?"
Suddenly there was a sound, and Qu Wanni looked in the direction it came from, only to see a black and thin young man standing far away at the door holding a candle lamp.
The young man spoke not-so-fluent English, mixed with the local accent, and she reckoned that he should be a native.
"Why am I here? What's wrong with my feet? Where's my companion?"
Qu Wanni was anxious to know everything, but the diving suit on her body had already been changed, she felt a little embarrassed, could it be that the person in front of her took it off for her?
"It was the master who rescued you from the sea. I am just a doctor in charge of seeing patients. Your companion is fine and has been sent back to shore." The young man replied calmly, and then reached out to turn on the wall lamp on the wall.
Qu Wanni finally saw the furnishings in the room clearly. It turned out to be a very elegant cabin. The furniture is simple and the colors are simple, making people feel fresh and comfortable.
"Where is the owner of this house? I want to thank him and ask him to take me back to the hotel by the way."
The young man shook his head suddenly, "The master doesn't like to see guests, and this place is a bit far from the hotel where the lady is staying. If the lady wants to leave, she has to wait until dawn. It's best to wait for the master's speedboat to be repaired, and someone will take you back. We have contacted your friends for you, and they all know that you are safe, so don't worry."
The host doesn't see the guests? Qu Wanni felt strange, then is there anyone else in this room besides the doctor?
"If there's nothing else, I'll go out and report first." After the young man finished speaking, he opened the door and went out.
The room was quiet again, as if no one had ever been there, and nothing was heard except the sound of the tide outside the window. Only then did Qu Wanni remember that she had forgotten to ask her if her leg was in serious condition, it seemed to be sprained, and it hurt a little when pressed down. She limped to the door and quietly opened the door a crack.
This wooden house is not too big, and it is ventilated everywhere, without screens, but it is strange that there are very few mosquitoes, but there seems to be no other houses nearby. She didn't listen to the doctor's advice to lie down properly, but walked out of the room with strong curiosity. She wants to find the person who saved her and say thank you to her. Moreover, she hoped to borrow the phone number from this family so as to report to Bai Haoxuan and the others that they were safe.
Not far along the long and narrow corridor, she heard rustling voices. She couldn't understand what they were saying, probably in the local language, but occasionally a sentence of English came out. Then someone seemed to be coming out, so she quickly found a place to block herself.
The young man I met just now reappeared in the corridor, then unscrewed the doorknob of the opposite room and walked in.
Now that she finally knew where the owner of the house was, she was so happy that she boldly went up and knocked on the door.
There was a voice in the house that she couldn't understand, which might be the meaning of the local people inviting people in. There was a wall lamp in the room, and under the dim light, she saw a man who was younger than the doctor just now, but this man was taller and stronger than the doctor, and his skin was still a little white. However, she couldn't see his face clearly, she just vaguely felt that he should be very good-looking.
The man was surprised when he found out that it was her.
"Miss is still very curious, so I found it here." The man spoke out his authentic American English and smiled at Qu Wanni.
"I just came to thank you for saving me, and I don't have any other malice." Qu Wanni wrapped her loose men's shirt tightly, and she didn't move closer while answering.
Unexpectedly, the man said: "You made a mistake, I didn't save you, it was my master who saved you."
Qu Wanni was stunned, "You said you are not the owner of this place?"
The man nodded, "Of course I'm not, I'm just a part-time worker."
Qu Wanni was very disappointed, but remembered that she had another matter, so she asked again: "Can I borrow the phone?"
However, the man's answer once again failed her expectations, "The phone is in the owner's room, and we can't use it without his instructions. But we have already contacted you at the hotel, and your companion is fine."
She pursed her lips, as if she still refused to give up, "Don't you have the phone? I want to borrow yours."
The man smiled helplessly, "Miss, do you think my mobile phone still has a signal here?" He put his mobile phone under the light and motioned Qu Wanni to take a closer look. Sure enough, the above signal shows a "", is the signal here shielded?
Qu Wanni is completely desperate!
"Then is your master there? I want to thank him face to face."
The man shook his head, "If he wants to appear, he will naturally appear, otherwise you will never see him."
"Then who changed the clothes on me?" She had no choice but to ask cheekily.
The man sneered, "Of course the owner changed it, but I didn't see anything."
Qu Wanni's face darkened, "Then I want to see him even more, otherwise how would I know if he has treated me well?" Her rare determination seemed to confirm that the mysterious master was nearby.
The man finally put away his smiling face, "Thenyou go back to your room and lie down first, may I inform you?"
This seemed to be the biggest concession, and Qu Wanni couldn't continue to insist, so she nodded and went back to her room.
He watched her leave, closed the door, and when the corridor was quiet, he turned around, faced the dark corner, and asked in a low voice in Chinese: "Are you still refusing to come out to see her?"
After two minutes of silence, when the black curtain was opened and the dim yellow light finally shone through, it was only then that people could see him clearly. His figure was also tall and handsome, his facial features could not find a single flaw, his eyes were deep and his contours were clear, he seemed to be an incomparably perfect man, even his temperament was as unattainable as a king.
"She may not want to see me, so let's forget it. I don't want to disturb her pleasure of traveling here." He replied in a deep voice, then turned and opened another door in the room.
"But didn't you come here and buy that hotel just because of her? Don't pretend, I'm you, and I'm sure I'll give her a full meal, so that I'm worthy of the money you spent!"
As soon as the man finished speaking, he punched the door with a "boom", almost denting a piece on the door.
The handsome man got angry, turned his head, and cursed at the man: "She's not a chicken! She's not a woman I bought with money! Keep your mouth shut! Or I'll set you on fire!"
The man curled his lips, and seemed to be used to this man's moodiness.
"Go back to your room and sleep, and send her away as soon as the boat is repaired tomorrow!"
The man shrugged and had no choice but to walk towards the door. However, the moment he opened the door, a beautiful face appeared.
Qu Wanni opened her eyes wide, staring blankly at the last man who appeared in the room for a long time!
The four eyes met, the memories of the past rolled over again, and the moving vows were as lost as the next day, she suddenly burst into tears, but her footsteps could not make her go forward, so she could only shout in a low voice¡ª¡ª
