It’s Monday again~~

Be happy, and let’s work hard, everyone!! ❤️


 

As expected, there were already people there, and there were two of them. In addition to the old man from last night, there was also a young woman.

Seeing Ruan Ning, the old man excitedly said, “Girl, did you bring the boat?”

Ruan Ning looked at the young woman next to him. She could tell that she must have been very beautiful before, with big eyes and fair skin, but now she had messy hair and looked haggard and terrified.

Ruan Ning asked, “Are you two going?”

The old man introduced, “This is Old Qin’s daughter-in-law. She insisted on going, saying that it would be better for two people to take risks than to take risks alone.”

“Also,” The old man hesitated, “I don’t know if you are taboo about this, but she wants to look for her father-in-law’s body. Don’t worry, we will never carry it on the boat. We still have this common sense.”

Now all the garbage was thrown into the water. Although the water was flowing, it was impossible to see whether the water was dirty or not, and how many bacteria there were.

Ruan Ning shook her head: “I have no problem. I brought the boat. Did you bring the gold?”

The old man looked at the young woman next to him.

She carefully took out the gold bracelet from her pocket and looked at Ruan Ning warily: “We agreed to borrow the boat.”

Ruan Ning: “Of course.”

After hesitating for a few seconds, the young woman stuffed the gold chain in through the crack of the door.

Ruan Ning took the gold and weighed it in her hand: “Not enough.”

The young woman was stunned, and Ruan Ning said: “The risk for you two is too great, and it is very likely that you will not be able to come back. This bracelet is not enough.”

The young woman was slightly excited: “We agreed to pay the money and deliver the goods at the same time!”

“Then, you can’t bring the smallest goods. If you don’t want to add more, I can return this to you.” Ruan Ning said.

The young woman looked at the old man next to her.

The old man hesitated for a moment and nodded.

She took out another diamond ring and said: “This is my wedding ring. This is the only one I have on me. If it’s not enough, I can’t do anything about it.”

Ruan Ning didn’t believe that such a cunning old man would hand over all his cards. After taking the ring, she unlocked the security door and handed out two packs of sandwich cookies and two bottles of hot brown sugar water through the slightly larger gap in the door.

The old man was stunned: “What does this mean?”

Ruan Ning said, “You haven’t eaten for a long time, so you don’t have the strength to row the boat. I’m afraid my boat will be destroyed. You must eat the food in front of me and don’t leave it for the children.”

The old man and the young woman looked at each other and silently began to stuff biscuits into their mouths.

The old man was very smart. He hid while eating, at least, three pieces!

Ruan Ning didn’t expose him. After they finished eating and drinking, she handed over the rubber boat and said, “Good luck to you.”

After sending the two people away, Ruan Ning locked the security door again and went back to the house to sleep.

She slept until half past ten and woke up. Her head was still fuzzy when she suddenly heard a scream from somewhere.

The voice was a female one, and it was very shrill.

She screamed and shouted: “Someone jumped off the building!”

“Someone jumped off the building with a child in her arms!”
