We had dinner at the restaurant on the first floor of the hotel. The chef didn't know where he came from, and the dishes he made were unacceptable to Xu Rongrong and Gu Yixuan.
After all, for Xu Rongrong and Gu Yixuan, although the dish of fried cactus and prickly pear is very unique, it is also... incredible.
In addition, there were many kinds of insects on the dining table. Xu Rongrong and Gu Yixuan were both helpless. Gu Yixuan even felt like vomiting when he saw them.
In the end, the two of them could only eat tacos and steak.
The way to eat corn tortillas here is different from that in China. There are many sauces that can be eaten with, and most of these sauces are made from chili peppers and tomatoes, which is quite suitable for Gu Yixuan and Xu Rongrong's taste.
After dinner, there was no village or shop in this place. There was only a patch of yellow sand everywhere, and there was nothing to visit. Everyone went back to their rooms to rest early.
Xu Rongrong had slept for a few hours in the afternoon. Now that he had eaten and drank enough, he was full of energy. He ran to the window of the room and opened it.
Xu Rongrong doesn't know where this place is, and the environment is not good. The only hotel is dilapidated, but the night sky here is indeed beautiful - the stars are twinkling, so bright that people doubt this is reality.
She asked Gu Yixuan to come over and watch together, to divert her attention.
Gu Yixuan liked to walk around when he was studying abroad. He had seen the starry night sky many times, but this time the night sky had a kind of emptiness, which made it feel very different.
"People in the hotel can see the night sky like this every night," Gu Yixuan said, "they must be very happy."
"But the people in the hotel don't necessarily think so." The door was suddenly pushed open, and Joanna's voice sounded, "In their eyes, such a common sight has become very boring."
Xu Rongrong didn't resent Joanna's sudden intrusion, and just smiled: "What do you want to say?"
Joanna pursed her lips: "I want to say that people rarely know how to cherish the things around them that make others envious."
"Is this the case for you too?" Xu Rongrong asked.
Joanna shook her head: "I have nothing. I have nothing for others to envy, and I... don't envy others for anything." When it came to the second half of the sentence, her tone was obviously not so sure.
In fact, Joanna is still a little envious of others, such as Xu Rongrong.
Xu Rongrong looked at Joanna and said nothing.
This time Joanna came to her, it was obviously not ordered by Wei An or Pin Ruiyun, she might just come because she wanted to.
For her, this is a good opportunity to persuade Joanna.
Joanna met Xu Rongrong's eyes inadvertently and was slightly startled.
No one has ever looked at her with such eyes, gentle and compassionate.
"Anna, can you tell me, what exactly do you want to do when you return to China this time?" Xu Rongrong asked.
"Didn't Zhan Yiyang tell you?" Joanna said calmly, "Didn't m305 be tested on you? Now, we are going to bring it back to the country and spread it. Charles has been planning this for a long time.
"
"How many more people will Charles harm?" Xu Rongrong looked at Joanna in disbelief, "Are you willing to help him do something like this that harms others but does not benefit oneself?"
"..." Joanna didn't say anything. She didn't want to tell Xu Rongrong. It wasn't a matter of whether she was willing or not. She had no choice but to obey Charles' orders.
"Do you know that you will harm many people who you don't know at all and who have never done anything to hurt you?" Xu Rongrong stared at Joanna's relatively clean eyes, trying to wake her up from her sin.
"..." There was wavering in Joanna's eyes - what Xu Rongrong said was not something she had never thought about, she just... didn't dare to think about it.
She had to listen to Charles. She was afraid that if she thought deeply about it, she would fall into conflicts, be shaken, and have the idea of disobeying Charles' orders, which would have serious consequences.
"Anna, if you want to start over, it's still too late." Xu Rongrong walked up to Joanna, "In the morning, you said on the ship that you haven't done anything so unconscionable that you are wanted. You
Unlike Weian and Pinruiyun, they still have the opportunity to live an ordinary life."
Joanna clearly saw that one of her heartstrings moved, but she immediately "coughed" and interrupted Xu Rongrong: "Stop talking."
"..." Xu Rongrong knew not to rush, so he stopped talking and looked at Joanna quietly.
After a while, she asked Joanna: "Then what do you want to say when you come to me?"
"..." Joanna was stunned. She didn't want to tell Xu Rongrong that in fact she came to her just on a whim. Saying this would make Xu Rongrong feel strange.
After hesitating for a long time, Joanna finally said: "I came here to ask you a question!"
"What's the problem?"
"Wei'an wants me to watch Zhan Yiyang 24 hours a day, and I will stay in the same room with him!" Joanna looked at Xu Rongrong with an expression as if she was waiting to watch a show, "How are you feeling now?"
Xu Rongrong shrugged: "I feel the same as usual."
"Don't you think a lot?" Joanna couldn't understand.
"I believe in my husband." Xu Rongrong's smile was very light, but his tone was very determined, and his eyes were shining with happiness.
"I really can't understand how the trust between you people comes from."
After saying that, Joanna frowned at him, shook her head and walked out.
Xu Rongrong chased after him: "Anna!"
Joanna paused and turned back to look at Xu Rongrong, with an imperceptible daze in her eyes.
"I believe in you too." Xu Rongrong said firmly, word by word, "Your nature is kind, and it's not too late to choose another path now."
Joanna didn't say anything, walked to the stairs and went downstairs.
Her back looked a little lonely.
After losing sight of Joanna, Xu Rongrong went back to the room and closed the door.
In fact, she was not sure at all. Although she knew that Joanna's nature was not bad, she had been in the "organization" for more than twenty years after all, and she could not guarantee that she could convince her to abandon the dark side and join the bright side with just a few words.
At this time, no one, including Xu Rongrong, thought that it was her words that would turn the situation around.
The night spread like thick ink between the sky and the earth, and silence enveloped the entire dilapidated hotel. Not long after, Gu Yixuan fell asleep, and Xu Rongrong also lay down.
Perhaps because they were too tired, they both forgot to recognize the bed and slept until dawn.
The next day, after breakfast, the group got in the car again, and the black business car continued to drive through the yellow sand.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, a group of people entered a certain country, then went into a decent hotel to wash up, changed cars, and rushed to the airport in a certain city in that country.
At this time, everyone's clothes had been changed.
Wei An and Pin Ruiyun pretended to be businesswomen. Both of them wore customized Dior suits, exquisite makeup, and Ferragamo stilettos. They looked like strong women.
The others are all employees of Weian and Pinruiyun in name. Even Xu Rongrong and Gu Yixuan changed into black suits, and the men all wore crisp suits.
The appearance of the whole group is not bad, especially Zhan Yiyang and Min Shiyan. They are equally outstanding but have different auras. When they appeared at the airport, they naturally attracted onlookers.
Xu Rongrong and Gu Yixuan walked together, noticed the eyes on them, and shook their heads: "I haven't tried this feeling before."
Gu Yixuan was equally helpless: "This is the first time for me to wear such a rigid and conservative suit."
After the suitcase passed the checked security check, the eight people also passed the security check smoothly. Special ground staff came to guide several people to board the plane.
No one noticed, and Wei'an and Pin Ruiyun breathed a sigh of relief - the m305 was packed in the checked luggage. It was not detected, thanks to Zhan Yiyang.
The boarding gate was right at the entrance of the departure hall. It was a private helicopter under the name of Weian, and several people quickly boarded it.
The interior decoration of the cabin is very luxurious, and the pilot and flight attendants are all available. After several people fastened their seat belts, the plane took off.
Xu Rongrong and Gu Yixuan, who had been kidnapped in a foreign country for two full months, finally embarked on their return journey. Their moods were brighter than the sunshine outside the porthole.
There were various fruit drinks and wines in the small refrigerator in the cabin. Neither Xu Rongrong nor Gu Yixuan were interested. Their eyes stayed outside the window with smiles on their lips.
After a while, the helicopter rose into the sky and shuttled through the white clouds.
The flight attendant came to deliver lunch, which consisted of simple bread and drinks. Xu Rongrong still ate happily. Even the blue sky and white clouds reflected in his pupils looked a bit cute.
Sure enough, the scenery on the way home is more beautiful than the fairyland.
After flying for an unknown amount of time, the helicopter entered darkness, and Xu Rongrong witnessed an even brighter night sky.
Zhan Yiyang saw that Xu Rongrong's lips were a little dry and handed her a drink: "If you feel sleepy, take a rest first. We still have ten hours to go."
Xu Rongrong shook her head: "I'm not sleepy." In other words, the thought of finally being able to return to China made her so excited that she couldn't sleep at all.
After saying that, she took the water handed over by Zhan Yiyang and took a sip.
"After we return to China, it will take some time before we can go home." Zhan Yiyang wiped away a drop of juice from the corner of Xu Rongrong's lips, "Please be patient and wait."
Xu Rongrong looked at Zhan Yiyang and nodded.
At this time, they all thought that Xu Rongrong would definitely be able to return home.
She said she wasn't sleepy, but after a few hours, the biological clock in her body urged Xu Rongrong to fall asleep. She leaned on Zhan Yiyang's shoulder and fell into a dream.
The plane was not as bumpy as a car, nor was it as stuffy. Gu Yixuan did not vomit again and fell asleep leaning against the back of the chair.
In the night, the helicopter followed the route and flew towards the domestic A city international airport.
When the helicopter arrived at the International Airport in City A, it was three o'clock in the morning local time, and both Xu Rongrong and Gu Yixuan were fast asleep.
Zhan Yiyang woke up Xu Rongrong, and then Gu Yixuan was also woken up by Joanna. They took their luggage and walked out of the airport.
There were not many people at the airport in the early morning, but they were all Chinese people with black hair and black eyes that Xu Rongrong was familiar with. The airport was also full of Chinese people who were familiar with her Chinese language...
She really felt like she was home. She could even feel that home was not far away...
