Claire stammered, “Yes… I saw you were sleeping so soundly, so I didn’t disturb you.”
Jacob said in surprise: “This is too strange. We didn’t even wake up when there was such a big commotion boarding the ship?”
After saying that, he asked again: “By the way, Claire, how long have we been on the boat?”
Claire replied unnaturally: “About twenty-four hours.”
“F*ck.” Jacob rubbed his temples and said in disbelief, “He fell asleep as soon as he got on the bus, and slept until he got on the boat. It’s okay to sleep until he got on the boat, but he slept for 24 hours on the boat. I’ve never slept for such a long time in my life. Could there be something wrong with my body…”
As he spoke, he subconsciously reached for his phone, muttering, “I need to ask my friend at the hospital if this situation is amiss. If not, I’ll go to the hospital for a thorough checkup when I get back.”
Jacob feels that now is the best time of his life. People have become particularly cherishing their lives and attach more importance to their health than ever before.
As he was talking, he couldn’t find his phone anywhere, so he asked Claire: “Claire, have you seen my phone? Could it be lost?”
When Elaine heard this, she also started looking around, but she also didn’t find her phone. She blurted out, “My phone is missing too. Could it be that the staff stole it for me?”
Seeing that both of them were a little anxious, Claire could only bite the bullet and say, “Dad, Mom, your phones have been temporarily confiscated.”
“Confiscated?” Elaine got anxious when she heard it, and said angrily: “How fresh, they didn’t confiscate my phone even though I was on a cruise ship, what do they think he is? Don’t you know that the customer is God?”
Claire explained bit by bit: “Dad, Mom, we…we are not taking a cruise this time…”
“It’s not a cruise ship?” Jacob said puzzledly: “Claire, you’ve confused Dad. Didn’t you say you were going to Tahiti on a cruise ship? If it’s not a cruise ship, what is it?”
Claire said, “We are on a cargo ship this time. The cargo ship is indeed taking us to Tahiti, but we are not going to Tahiti, but to one of the islands there.”
Elaine said impatiently: “No matter which island he goes to, it is always inappropriate to take our mobile phones, right? Where is such a service provider?”
Claire pursed her lips and looked at the two of them. One hand was nervously picking at the nails of the other hand, and she whispered, “Dad, Mom, we won’t go back after we come out this time.”
“Not going back?” The couple was even more confused.
Elaine got up from the bed and asked anxiously: “Claire, what’s wrong with you? Why are you talking so vaguely and confusingly today? If you weren’t my daughter, I would have thought you had kidnapped us.
Claire made up his mind and said frankly, “Dad, Mom, we’re going to the South Pacific this time and we won’t be returning to Jinling, or even to China. You can no longer have any contact with your relatives and friends in China. In other words, we’re going to disappear from the Chinese world so that no one can find us.”
“Why?” Elaine was anxious and blurted out: “We haven’t committed any crime or violated any law, so why should we disappear from the face of the earth?”
After she finished speaking, her eyes suddenly widened: “Oh Claire! Did charlie Wade get into trouble while doing Feng Shui for someone outside? Could it be… Could it be that he offended some important person?”
Claire was a little surprised. She didn’t expect that her mother would think about this.
Jacob, who was standing aside, also seemed to be influenced by Elaine and immediately said, “Oh! I’ve said it before, charlie Wade is not that kind of material. When he first married into our family, he couldn’t even cook a delicious meal. Suddenly one day he became a Feng Shui master. I asked him where he learned it from, and he was vague, saying that he learned it from TV or from a book he bought at a street stall. This… How can this be looked upon as good as it is! Isn’t it just relying on eloquence to cheat people out of money? If you cheat a little, you may get away with it, but if you cheat a lot, you will be exposed sooner or later!”
