They stayed in the small town of Tekapo for a week. Every day at dawn, they saw the blue sky, and when it got dark, they saw thousands of miles of stars.
Next to it is the clear and beautiful Lake Tekapo.
The residents in the small town are warm and honest, and they would say hello to them every day they meet.
After a week, Ruan Xingwan was able to say a few simple greetings.
It really is like a paradise here.
Living here seems to isolate you from all external disturbances.
When leaving, Ruan Xingwan was a little reluctant, lying on the car window and looking outside.
Not far away, the residents of the small town were waving goodbye to them.
Zhou Cishen said: "If you like it here, we can come here once a year in the future."
Ruan Xingwan looked back at him: "Really?"
Zhou Cishen laughed silently and pulled her into his arms: "Why are you lying to me?"
Ruan Xingwan said: "Next time, let's bring the little one with us."
"good."
The car slowly left the town of Tekapo and headed towards Christchurch.
When it got dark, they arrived downstairs at the hotel.
Their original plan was to stay here for one night and take a private plane to Semporna tomorrow morning.
In the middle of the night, when Ruan Xing was drifting off to sleep, he felt Zhou Cishen get up and answer a phone call.
Not long after, she was woken up.
Zhou Ci stared at her deeply and whispered: "Baby, we may not be able to go to Xianbon."
Ruan Xing was a little confused after sleeping at night: "Huh?"
Zhou Cishen said: "We have to go to London."
Hearing the word London, Ruan Xingwan gradually woke up from his sleep.
Zhou Ci kissed her forehead deeply: "Get up, I've packed everything."
When they left Christchurch, it was late at night and the whole city was deserted and silent.
After getting on the plane, Ruan Xingwan grabbed Zhou Cishen's sleeves and controlled his trembling voice: "Did something happen?"
Zhou Cishen held her hand: "I don't know the specific situation yet, so I can't tell you the exact answer now."
Even though Zhou Cishen didn't answer her directly, Ruan Xingwan's inner uneasiness was amplified little by little. If it wasn't a big deal, Zhou Cishen would never change his itinerary to Semporna and would set off in the middle of the night.
It should be... that person, something happened.
On the plane to London, Ruan Xingwan kept leaning in Zhou Cishen's arms without speaking or sleeping.
I don’t know how long it took, but the sun came in outside the window.
I don’t know how long it took, but the sunlight disappeared little by little in the cabin, and it was once again filled with the silent night.
Finally, the plane landed.
Outside the tarmac, someone was already waiting for them.
Zhou Cishen took Ruan Xingwan straight into the car.
The closer to the destination, the faster Ruan Xingwan's heart beats.
The whole person's thoughts are also very chaotic, and he can never calm down.
An hour later, the black car stopped at the entrance of a private hospital. In addition to police cars, there were many bodyguards guarding the hospital.
When getting out of the car, Ruan Xingwan clenched his hands unconsciously.
Zhou Cishen came over and led her towards the hospital.
When the bodyguards saw them, they let them go without any obstruction.
When you enter the hospital, there are people patrolling you all the time, including in the corridors.
Outside the ward, there were police officers standing there, taking notes.
The whole atmosphere looked tense and serious.
At this time, a man walked out from the side: "Mr. Zhou, Miss Ruan, please come with me."
Ruan Xingwan remembered this man, he was William's assistant.
The assistant took them to the ward on the top floor and said at the same time: "The ward below is just a cover-up. Mr. William is here."
Ruan Xingwan looked at the man lying on the bed with an oxygen tube through a layer of glass, and his uneasiness was suddenly confirmed.
There was a lump in her throat: "What on earth is going on?"
The assistant said: "Yesterday afternoon, Mr. William was attacked after he went out.
Because the other party came prepared, we suffered heavy losses, and Mr. William was seriously injured and fell into a coma, and he is still not out of danger."
"Why..."
"This group of people has been staring at us for some time. They have been aggressive and have robbed our goods several times. They have also threatened suppliers with guns, causing the company to suffer heavy losses recently."
Zhou Cishen said: "Have you found out their origins?"
The assistant shook his head: "They are all a group of desperadoes who want money rather than their lives."
"If they want money, someone has to give them money."
"We have checked all the people who have conflicts with the company and eliminated the possibility one by one."
Ruan Xingwan pursed her lips tightly: "Did Daniel come back because of this incident too?"
The assistant nodded: "Yes."
"Then now he..."
"Daniel has been missing for a week."
Ruan Xingwan couldn't help but widen his eyes: "What?"
The assistant said: "Daniel discovered the traces of that group of people a week ago. Before he disappeared, he sent us an address. When we rushed there, the group of people and him had disappeared."
"William was attacked yesterday, and he hurried out after getting clues about Daniel.
But what I didn’t expect was that it was just a trap.”
When Ruan Xingwan heard this, he suddenly couldn't stand still and fell back two steps.
William was shot and fell into a coma. He is not yet out of danger, and Daniel has been missing for a week. Life or death is uncertain...
Shanshan is still pregnant and waiting for him in Nancheng.
Zhou Cishen supported her and sat on the sofa next to her.
Upon seeing this, the assistant nodded and said: "Mr. Zhou, Miss Ruan, you guys take a break here, I have something else to deal with."
After speaking, the assistant left.
Ruan Xingwan grabbed Zhou Cishen's hand and her voice was choked: "I..."
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but she couldn't.
Zhou Cishen patted her back gently, kissed her heart, and comforted her silently.
Ruan Xingwan closed his eyes, the corners of his eyes were moist.
She never thought that when she saw William again, he would be like this.
If I had known... If I had known earlier, she shouldn't have pretended not to know anything and had a few words with him.
Although she no longer has this biological father in her memory.
But whether it was a pocket watch, a ring, or him changing his identity and going back for revenge, including the fact that in the end he even chose not to tell her the truth or who he really was in order to prevent her from being in a dilemma.
No matter from every aspect, it can be seen that he is definitely a good husband and father.
But she just chose to escape and not face this matter.
Ruan Xingwan grabbed Zhou Cishen's clothes and choked silently again, then turned into soft sobs, and finally cried louder and louder.
Before she had time, she asked him how he had lived these years, whether he had lived well, what happened in the past, and what the memories she had lost were like.
