When the golden light tore the sea surface in the east bit by bit, it was already the fifth day that Xu Yun was on Gu Qiya's arms merchant ship. Through the new "deal" between Gu Qiya and Bao Shisong, Xu Yun could talk to Guoguo for ten minutes every day. Of course, the condition was that Bao Shisong could also talk to his son for ten minutes.
This was the only solution to ensure the safety of their respective children. Guoguo was nervous at the beginning, but she slowly accepted the reality. As early as a year ago, she had experienced a great change in her family. She couldn't treat her like an ordinary child. Although she was young and would cry, she wouldn't just cry all the time.
Since Xu Yun talked to Guoguo, Guoguo was much calmer. She knew that there was another arms merchant ship following her not far away, and Xu Yun was on that ship. They had found a way to save her, but she needed to wait a few more days until they arrived in Canada.
From that day on, Guoguo tried to be more patient. Indeed, she did it. Even Xu Yun wasn't as patient as her. In order to let Guoguo instruct his men to treat his son better, Bao Shisong served them with delicacies every day. Guoguo's little life was very comfortable.
In order to make up for the hurt Guoguo's heart, Xu Yun also promised her that when they arrived in Canada, he would take her anywhere she wanted to go. Even if she wanted to go to Manhattan in the United States to watch the sunset, he would satisfy her. After saying this, Xu Yun realized that they couldn't get a visa at all. If they really wanted to go to the United States, they could only "smuggle" across the border.
However, Gu Qiya must have a way anyway. Vancouver was a coastal city in the low-land plains of British Columbia, Canada. It was the largest city in western Canada. Next to it was Seattle, the largest city in the northwest of the United States. It wasn't difficult for him to "smuggle" over.
It was said that many Hua Xia went to Seattle to give birth to their children so that their children could be registered as American citizens.
Thinking of this, Xu Yun thought of something else. Vancouver's film production was well-developed. It was the third largest production center in North America after Los Angeles and New York. It was known as the Hollywood of the north. Perhaps he could learn something along the way. It seemed that his trip across the ocean was not in vain.
Xu Yun had a good impression of this city, which was ranked among the best cities in the world. Guoguo also had a good impression of this place. Being sensible, she did not ask for Xu Yun to bring her to the United States, where she could only "smuggle" herself. She only said that since she was already here, she had to visit the famous Stanley Park, Queen Elizabeth Park, and of course, the world's longest suspension bridge that crossed Bullard Bay and connected downtown Vancouver — the Lion's Gate Bridge!
Xu Yun agreed to all of Guoguo's conditions. Before hanging up the phone, Xu Yun also told her to think of other places she wanted to go. She would tell him when he called the next day.
Xu Yun said this because he hoped that Guoguo would not be too lonely. A child crossing the Pacific Ocean on a group of strangers' boat was not something an adult could bear. This was why even Xu Yun couldn't help but admire Guoguo. She really wasn't an ordinary kind of strong person. Even though she would sometimes say some petrifying words, she was still a child after all.
"How is it? Is Guoguo okay?" After Xu Yun hung up the phone, Gu Qiya handed him a bottle of beer. After talking with Xu Yun these days, she had a general understanding of Guoguo. She even wanted to meet this weird little girl.
Xu Yun took the beer and took a sip. "Well, she's good. Her ability to adapt is even better than mine."
There were very few things to do on the boat every day, so drinking was almost a daily homework for all the mercenaries. Whether it was vodka or whiskey, after drinking, they always had to rinse their mouths with a few bottles of beer. During the five days on the boat, Xu Yun had obviously turned drinking into a daily homework.
Of course, he would not drink with the mercenaries on the deck. After all, Gu Qiya had a rule for the mercenaries. There were more than 30 people, and they could only drink ten bottles of vodka or whiskey every day, followed by a bottle of beer for each person. She was not worried that they would drink too much and cause trouble, but she was worried that if they drank too much, they would meet people who would cause trouble.
The captain, first mate, and second mate were more pitiful. Gu Qiya never allowed them to drink. After all, the Pacific Ocean was such a long journey that they needed to be 100% clear-headed to safely cross it. The only ones who didn't lack alcohol were the cooks. Not only were they in charge of food, but they were also in charge of alcohol. Therefore, three to five cooks would occasionally wait until the dead of the night to secretly open two bottles of vodka and have a midnight snack. As for them, Gu Qiya turned a blind eye. Anyway, her chef was already fat enough and wouldn't be of much help if they met with trouble.
In the five days, Xu Yun got to know almost everyone on the boat. Everyone was polite to him. Even if it was not for Gu Qiya's face, no one dared to provoke this fierce person who could single-handedly take on the entire mercenary team.
The story of Xu Yun being able to single-handedly overturn the entire mercenary team became a hot topic on the boat. Every time a mercenary used vulgar and provocative language to speak rudely to the fat cook, the fat cook would use a sentence, "If you have the ability, go and do whatever you want to Mr. Xu" to refute.
Putting aside other matters, Xu Yun had been living a carefree life for the past few days. On the ship, he had experienced the tranquility of a cloudless sea, as well as a sudden storm in the middle of the night. These were all things that he had never experienced before.
To anyone, experience and tempering were priceless treasures. While feeling emotional, Xu Yun secretly used his phone to write a few poems. He was going to edit it slightly when he returned to Hua Xia and post it on Tang Yuan's website. Maybe he could get to know many female fans who adored him …
Hehe. Thinking about it, Xu Yun could not help but raise the corner of his mouth and reveal a faint smile.
"What good things are you thinking about? Share with me?" Gu Qiya also held a bottle of beer. Like the other men on the boat, she drank directly from the mouth of the bottle. She was definitely not the so-called virtuous lady. A virtuous lady would definitely not be able to do such a family business.
However, although she was not virtuous and did not care about trifles most of the time, it did not affect her temperament and charm at all. Gu Qiya was such a girl. If she were to be a virtuous lady, she would be very scary.
"Nothing, I just feel that I am very lucky." Xu Yun: "I will never forget this journey in my life. It is really important to me."
"Ahem, you better make it clear. Don't let me misunderstand that you are confessing to me in a disguised way." Gu Qiya joked. She knew that the people on the boat and the mercenaries were talking about the joke between her and Xu Yun, but she did not mind. She was even a little happy. Most of the time, she would make jokes about the two of them.
