Hearing the two magic words that worked like a charm to everyone who was knowledgeable about Guan Family, the Captain of the ship naturally cried out shocked, "What?! Did you just say Miss from Guan Family?"
Thud!
Just as the Captain finished speaking, the tal doors in the superstructure of the ship opened abruptly as if soone kicked them with their foot and a sailor with a rifle showed up. There were another two sailors behind him, also holding their rifles ready for action.
When they saw an unknown guy in a suit holding a gun, they imdiately tried to raise their weapons and aim at him, thinking he was the perpetrator of the shooting, but unfortunately for them, they didn't know who they were up against, being already one step behind in their movents.
Wuxing's left hand already moved, reaching out to his suit the mont the tal doors started opening and he was already aiming his second Beretta before they managed to raise their rifles at him. Seeing they were not stopping despite the gun pointed at them, Wuxing had no choice but to take action.
Bang!
The bullet shot out of the barrel with a loud bang, breaking the air as it travelled towards the first sailor's leg, the sa way he shot the first one.
"Aaagh!" The sailor imdiately let go of the rifle as his legs gave him, making him fall to the ground. They were still inside so the mont he fell which allowed Wuxing to kick at the doors, closing them with a bang before returning to glaring at the three other sailors who paused once again. They tried to pull out their weapons, wanting to take advantage of the ti he was looking away.
As they were all barely two ters away from them Wuxing only needed to move a step to reach the doors with his legs.
Aiming two guns at them, Wuxing warned coldly, no longer having rcy in his eyes plans, "I don't think you want to aim a gun at Miss. Don't be stupid or you will drop dead." The next ti soone tried to aim at them, Wuxing would not hesitate to kill.
When the Captain heard another gunshot, he imdiately shouted through the walkie-talkies, "Hold fire! They are not enemies! if anyone shots, I will personally throw them overboard!" The one which Wuxing held was already on the ground, half smashed as he threw it away to pull another gun.
When Wuxing heard the Captain words, he could only smile, sighing in relief to finally have sothing go well today. He already predicted such a scene happening but didn't expect Dongi would bring it to another level. He only thought she will decide to also travel with him but this case had a very little chance of happening so he didn't analyze it in detail.
Dongi jumping off the pier while losing her guards was definitely out of his expectations. Wuxing had to improvise and found this would be the most effective way to inform the captain about Dongi's presence. Wuxing planned many things, together with sneakily killing Long Qing but now with Dongi on the board, it wasn't possible anymore.
Thinking about it, he might as well make it bigger, informing everyone about it.
Knowing the situation stabilized a bit now, Dongi who was behind Wuxing this whole ti stopped hiding and walked towards the sailors. Showing a nice smile, she introduced herself while looking at the wounded sailor on the ground, "I work as a doctor in the prison. Can I help your friend? He will bleed out soon if I don't stem the bleeding."
Seeing that Wuxing didn't mind her actions as if he was just there to protect her, they finally believed she must be soone important. Recalling the Captain's reaction, the Guan family had to be really famous else he wouldn't panic so much. Before they even said anything to her, the wounded sailor was the first one to call for help, "Miss, please help…"
Seeing how Dongi only smiled brighter and hopped barefoot for the first-aid kit that was hanging on the wall and started diligently dressing the wound. She was surprised when she saw how Wuxing dodged all the important nerves and the bullet wasn't even in the body, only grazing the side of the sailor's calf. It only increased the great opinion she had of him.
When the other two sailors saw her beauty from up close, being all gentle and kind, only one word was appearing in their minds, 'Angel…' Wuxing, on the other hand, knew she was only doing it to soften the situation. They will still bla Wuxing for shooting but he didn't mind that.
Just then, a frustrated yell reached them from the inside of the bridge, "Damn, what happened?!" Right after that, the doors once again opened and Wuxing saw a middle-aged man which short black hair go out to the deck, completely out of breath. He probably ran up from the highest floor out of ergency to solve the situation here.
Even with the Captain's presence, Wuxing didn't stop aiming with his guns, just in case, they planned to do anything funny to Dongi who was still focused on dressing the wound.
Seeing the lawyer holding two pistols, the Captain was quite taken aback but looking around, he quickly realised what happened. Knowing he was in Dongi's presence, he first apologized to her, "Miss Guan, I'm really sorry for anything that happened. I didn't teach my sailors properly.
I definitely deserve punishnt." The Captain's head was lowered into a bow as his tone turned into a respectful one.
Both the sailors on the deck and the ones who were helping the second wounded beca shocked once again, finding it impossible that their strict Captain would lower his head this much. Two of his n were shot and he was the one apologising!
Not bothered by his own sailor's gazes, the Captain waited patiently for Dongi response. Only after Dongi was done cleaning the wound with gauze and applied the dressing did she stood up, turning to the Captain.
When he saw the smile on Dongi's face, Captain quickly paled, not recalling Dongi ever smiling. Even in her first trip to the Prison, she was as cold as an ice, making him suppress his breathing so he wouldn't be too loud in her presence.
Seeing her approaching without saying a word, the Captain pleaded, thinking of kneeling as well, "Miss… Please, forgive this lowly one. I wasn't inford that Miss will board the ship. I can take all the bla."
Dongi walked up to him and asked calmly, returning to her normal expression, "I will be taking your cabin for the ti of traveling, do you have a problem with that?" She knew she was just scaring him with her sudden smiles so Dongi had to change back to her usual self. She only recently started smiling more, being a happy woman in love but not many knew about that.
Naturally, the Captain quickly shook his head, replying with eagerness, "Of course not! Miss can use my cabin as she wishes." He already had such a plan so it was more convenient for him if Dongi asked about it.
"Great." Nodding to him, she pointed at the first-aid kit still laying on the floor and commanded, "Move the kit for and tell your sailors to pull the second wounded outside. I will also help him." Even if she took the kit herself earlier, it was actually heavy so she didn't bother to anymore, having others do the job for her.
"Did you hear what Miss said?! Carry out the orders!" The Captain instantly shouted, forwarding the commands which woke up the sailors who were daydreaming, not fully understanding what is going on.
In the anti, Dongi approached Wuxing and said warmly, "Mr, you can put down your weapons already. Everything is settled. I would like to invite you upstairs to the cabin so I can brew a cup of tea for you as thanks for saving earlier. Do you mind?"
Wuxing knew that smile was genuine, the one that only he would get. He could only listen to her, knowing he was just the lawyer right now until they et alone. Hiding his Berettas back into the gun holsters under his suit, Wuxing replied back with a smile, "It would be an honour."
Dongi didn't talk further to him just as normal Dongi would do and started treating another gunshot wound. This one was a bit more serious with more tissue lost but the bullet was also missing.
Just as Wuxing looked at his watch and saw already five minutes passed, he heard a tily call from the Devil Face, complaining to him once again, 'How long are you going to wait? Tis up. Call now.'
Wuxing could only ask for more ti, but he knew the chances were slim, 'Let and Dongi return to the cabin and then I will—" Unfortunately before he could end, Devil Face stopped him, not giving him a chance to convince him, 'I don't care. I want to hear Guan Dong's reaction. I already waited long enough.'
Wuxing didn't give up and took a different approach, 'Your thinking is wrong. If I were to walk away and contact him, you will only get Guan Dong's reaction but nothing else. If I were to bring Dongi upstairs, not only would you get her parent's reaction but also her own. Imagine her expression when I admit it right in front of her. Don't you want to see it?'
As Wuxing battle in his thoughts, Dongi finished at the sa ti, calling out to both Wuxing and the Captain, "I'm done. Let's go upstairs, shall we?" She has already dressed a lot of gunshot wounds so she did not need a lot of ti, knowing the process from A to Z.
"Of course!" The Captain was naturally the first to reply but then he spotted that Dongi didn't have shoes on and proposed, "Miss, how about I find so shoes for you? The stairs are made of tal and there are many sharp edges on the steps."
Dongi looked down at her feet, finally realising there were not in a great condition from all the running earlier and found that a good idea, replying, "Oh, that would be fine, but no need to hurry." She knew that it wasn't appropriate for them but she couldn't hold herself back as she continued, asking for Wuxing's involvent, "For now I can let my Lawyer take upstairs on his back.
Is that alright?"
She expected Wuxing to agree right away but he looked as if he was thinking deeply about sothing and asked, "Miss, can you wait a second?" He still didn't receive Devil's Face reply so he repeated the question in his mind, 'So how is it? Do you want to see it or not?'
Only then did Devil Face finally reply, getting hooked by Wuxing's bait, 'Fine, I will give you one last five minutes. Don't ask for more.'
"Mr, is sothing the matter?" Dongi repeated her question, thinking that sothing was wrong with him, but then she saw him smiling and walk up to her while crouching in the front before replying with a happy smile, "I don't mind. I'm sorry, I was just shocked by the proposal. I can take Miss anywhere."
...….
After getting to the top of the bridge, the capital happened to have his own big cabin which he planned to give to them. As they entered, they saw a nice, modern bed in the middle of the room, basically everything a room needed, together with a desk and the private toilet. The Captain spent a lot of ti on the ship so he didn't save on the furnishing.
Wuxing placed Dongi on the floor when they entered the room before turning to the Captain who passed him the suitcase which was thrown away by him earlier, saying, "Mr Cheng, here is your suitcase. Miss, once again, I'm sorry for what happened on the deck. Hope you can forgive . If there is anything, Miss can just call . I will be just outside, directing the ship."
"Alright. I will ask if there is anything." Dongi nodded as he prepared to close the doors only to hear another reminder, "The tea is in the bottom drawer and the kettle is there as well. Maybe it's not the best one Miss can buy but it's definitely one of the best in the market. I have a habit of drinking tea before—"
Thud. Before he could finish explaining, Dongi closed the doors but he didn't mind, walking back to the helm.
Inside the room, Dongi still held her hand on the knob to the doors, sowhat afraid to turn around. She didn't know how will Wuxing react to her breaking of the plan, but feeling no actions from him, Dongi finally asked softly, "Are you mad? I'm sorry for ruining your plan…"
Dongi thought Wuxing will do sothing after her question but she only heard him opening his suitcase and the sound of calling on speaker. She imdiately turned around and asked, seeing him calling to soone, "What are you doing?"
Wuxing only smiled, his voice back to his own and replied playfully, "Punishnt."
