"Mr. Keynes, I should thank you just for this special experience." Not everyone has the opportunity to go on a submarine and listen to whales singing.
"You're welcome, I believe Miss Lin can give me much more than this." Keynes smiled, kissed the back of Lin Xiangwan's hand, and left calmly.
Lin Xiangwan still stood there without moving. Although the whale swam far away, she was still in shock and could not recover.
The scene of two whales swimming away together shocked her so much.
To humans, they are just lower animals. Humans can slaughter them arbitrarily, enjoy their lives, and destroy their homes mercilessly.
But after all, they are also a part of this world. They are stupid and no one has a higher IQ. But precisely because of their stupidity, their feelings are more sincere than those of humans.
Once recognized, it lasts a lifetime.
If we have each other, we won't feel afraid. Even if it's the abyss of the sea, even if it's dark, as long as you are by my side, I will have the courage to move on.
When can she meet such a person, or in other words, can the person she meets trust her like this?
Instead, when disaster strikes, push her away and let her go alone and live alone.
Doesn't he understand that in a world without him, she will suffer as long as she lives?
Lin Xiangwan let out a long breath, and Ye Misheng, who had been silent, approached her, "What's wrong? Why are you crying?"
Are you crying? Lin Xiangwan touched her face with her hands, only to find that she had burst into tears at some point.
She quickly wiped away her tears with the back of her hand and said with a brisk smile, "It's okay. Now that I have eaten from the landlord's family, it's time to help the landlord."
After dinner, Keynes asked Lin Xiangwan to enjoy cigars in his room. Ye Yasheng wanted to follow him, but was blocked by a strong bodyguard.
Compared to his nervousness, Lin Xiangwan was very calm. She fumbled for the sterling silver knife she had brought from the restaurant hidden in her sleeve, feeling even calmer.
Although it is a bedroom, the room is a suite with one entrance and one exit. The living room outside is luxuriously decorated, and every detail exudes coolness and elegance.
Lin Xiangwan sat across from Keynes, who held a fine Cuban cigar in his hand. The lit cigar flickered on and off, and the red fire was like the stars at night.
"My ship rarely accepts outsiders. Those who can board my ship are my friends. Since Miss Lin is willing to honor you, I will definitely find a way to settle the matter with your ex-husband."
Lin Xiangwan had no idea what Keynes was thinking, but one thing was certain. Keynes calling her here would be much more troublesome than Ye Misheng thought, just to take advantage of her.
"Actually, my ex-husband is not responsible for this. When those people attacked me, he was just defending himself." Keynes can help Lin Xiangwan, yes, but Lin Xiangwan doesn't want Keynes to feel that he has done anything wrong.
Even without his help, the truth will be revealed in the end, it just takes some effort.
"Even if it is self-defense, there is also a saying that self-defense is excessive. What if those two people insist that their accomplice was just playing around and did not really intend to attack you?"
In the absence of other witnesses, the testimony of those two men played a decisive role.
Is it manslaughter, intentional homicide, self-defense, or excessive defense? Sometimes the line is blurred.
"That's why I'm willing to get on the boat with you, just to thank you for helping me."
"But you just said that you have to thank me for visiting my underwater glass house. In addition to this, Miss Lin, you have to thank me twice." Keynes smiled brightly.
Lin Xiangwan could only answer with "Haha."
Ye Yasheng said that Cairns is a pastoral snow dog, which is actually not quite accurate. How can ordinary dogs be so cunning? He is obviously a wolf with a big tail!
Big tail wolf with green eyes!
"Don't be nervous, Miss Lin. I came here to let you relax. I heard the doctor said that you just had an operation and it's best to rest more. How can you have a good rest in a family hotel like this? It's better to stay on the boat.
, the cruise ship will go south from the Arctic Ocean and arrive in City H in about 20 days, what do you think?"
It's good, but if something goes wrong, there must be a monster. Lin Xiangwan smiled and said, "You'd better talk to me first."
Keynes smiled openly, "Ms. Lin is still too wary of me, but it's okay. If I explain it clearly, I will save a lot of trouble later. The second thing I asked Miss Lin to come on board is to ask Miss Lin to be a lobbyist for me."
"Lobbyist?" Lin Xiangwan was confused.
Keynes pressed the lit cigar into the ashtray and whispered to Lin Xiangwan in the thick smoke, "I have a meeting with K tomorrow night. I hope Miss Lin can be there."
K, to Lin Xiangwan, is an extremely distant name.
She had not heard from K since she left the tea house. Now that she heard about this man from Keynes, she felt as if she was in another world.
Keynes is a good businessman, and a good businessman will never do useless work. Everything he does, even if it seems useless at the time, is laying the foundation for future work.
"K and I... are not very familiar. We haven't seen each other for a long time." Keynes wanted her to be a lobbyist, and he really thought highly of her. She and K hadn't seen each other for several years, although she was the one who was so shameless in the beginning.
She lived in a tea house, but K had always been unwilling to do so. Maybe in his heart, his dislike for her had taken over.
Keynes flicked the extinguished cigarette butt away. Although it was a small gesture, it was still chic and elegant. "But as far as I know, apart from you, K's tea house has never received any other guests. Miss Lin, although I am a lobbyist, I
You don’t really need to say anything, you just need to stay there.”
Speaking of this, if Lin Xiangwan refused again, he was afraid that Keynes would be angry no matter how good-tempered he was. Lin Xiangwan had no choice but to nod, "Well, I hope K can still consider it for the sake of our mutual friend.
Give me some face. But I can ask, what exactly are you going to discuss tomorrow?"
K's identity was unusual. Lin Xiangwan couldn't imagine how Keynes, a businessman, might have anything to do with the special forces.
"Killing, cheating." Keynes spat out a few words, looked at the stunned Lin Xiangwan, and said happily, "This room will be used by Miss Lin today. I'll take my leave. See you tomorrow."
Killing? Cheating? Did she hear that right?!

The next day, there was a storm on the sea.
K's icebreaker came riding the wind and waves.
Ordinary seas can be very dangerous with wind and waves, let alone the arctic cold land full of icebergs.
A strong wind suddenly rose. The wind was not only cold, but also hard. The wind was filled with ice particles, which hit people's faces painfully. Lin Xiangwan stood on the deck for a short while, then she felt that she couldn't stand it. She looked at K's face.
The speedboat was like an arrow off the string, breaking through the layers of ice and advancing rapidly towards the cruise ship.
There was only K on the boat. He was wearing a special black military uniform that did not belong to any country. There was a white bird painted on the chest of the military uniform, with an olive branch in its beak.
The boat was speeding on the ice, and the boat was very bumpy. If it were an ordinary person, it would be difficult to sit still. It would have to hold on to the railing tightly to stabilize itself and not be blown into the sea by the wind and waves. But for K,
These wind and waves seemed like a joke. He stood on the bow of the ship, solemnly dressed in black, and he looked like a god of war who had traveled through time in ancient times and invaded the world along with the wind and rain.
In less than ten minutes, the small boat had already arrived in front of the cruise ship. At a height of more than ten meters, K jumped on board with a slight jump.
There were other staff on the deck, and when they saw his actions, their jaws almost dropped to the ground. Lin Xiangwan and Keynes' expressions were normal, but they also felt a storm in their hearts.
Whenever you see this kind of person, you feel extremely powerful. Even if he doesn't say anything, just standing in front of him can make people fear him. He seems to be above all living beings, at the top of the food chain...
god.
K walked steadily to Keynes. His steps were very long and steady. When he passed by Lin Xiangwan, his steps hesitated for a moment, "You?"
"It's me, k, long time no see. How is Bai Jing?" Lin Xiangwan smiled slightly.
Although K may dislike Lin Xiangwan, Lin Xiangwan feels quite familiar when she sees him. After all, he has taken her in for so long, and they have the same focus.
K nodded towards Lin Xiangwan. He wore a black metal mask on his face. The mask covered his entire face, only revealing his firm jawline.
"Bai Jing is fine. We are all fine. How come you are with Keynes?"
Before Lin Xiangwan could answer, Keynes said first, "It is fate that brings us together."
Lin Xiangwan said, "...ignore this guy, he is sick."
After a brief exchange of greetings, the group walked into the cruise ship.
With Lin Xiangwan's intervention and Keynes's tact, the meeting went very smoothly from the beginning. Keynes quickly discussed some matters about maritime transportation with K in English. Lin Xiangwan felt that these things may not be
I should listen to it, so I put on my headphones and hid aside to watch American TV series.
The two of them discussed for a long time. Lin Xiangwan had finished watching four or five episodes of The Vampire Diaries. The meeting between the two was not over yet. Keynes seemed very excited, and his voice was so loud that even Lin Xiangwan heard something similar to pirates, robbery, and routes.
Class vocabulary.
Compared to his impulsiveness, K seemed very calm. He only occasionally interjected a word or two and spent most of his time listening.
This man was originally dressed in black, and his location was always in the shadows. Lin Xiangwan glanced at him from time to time, always afraid that he would disappear in the shadows.
She still had some things to ask him, but she had to keep an eye on him. If he ran away, where would she find him?
After another hour, Keynes and K finally reached some consensus. They stood up and shook hands. Keynes looked ugly, but K, because he was wearing a mask, no one could see what he was thinking.
After talking about business, K was about to leave. When he walked onto the deck, he suddenly turned to Lin Xiangwan and asked, "Has the poison in Chu Di been cured?"
