“So you purchased these electrical appliances via ship?”
The obviously immature boy explained: "We have a special market, and we usually trade with pirates and passing ships."
Qiao Nian opened the curtain and walked out, interjecting, "You said you have a signal tower here? What does it look like?"
“Are you okay?” The boy was very surprised.
Only then did Qiao Nian see the situation outside clearly. Outside was an independent living room with a TV, coffee table and sofa.
Hung on the wall is a portrait of an old man. Below the portrait is a small board bound with wood, and freshly picked flowers are placed on it.
Ye Wangchuan was talking to a dark-skinned boy.
The boy stood in front of him. He was a full head shorter than him, at most 1.7 meters tall. He also had this youthful look that belongs only to young people. He looked to be at most seventeen or eighteen years old.
His facial features are ordinary, and his eyes are exceptionally bright, giving people a warm and friendly feeling just like the sunshine outside.
He was very happy to see Qiao Nian wake up. He turned around and danced and said to Ye Wangchuan: "Your wife is so beautiful!"
Qiao Nian keenly caught his precise pronunciation of the word "wife", raised her eyebrows and glanced over, and saw the man smiling frankly: "I think so too."
ˆ˜Qiao Nian: “…”
She walked straight over despite the young man's bright and cheerful eyes, stood in front of them, and said seriously: "I just heard you talking about the signal tower inside..."
“Ah, you’re talking about that.” The young man was not sure how much she heard, so he explained honestly: “The signal tower is broken.”
Qiao Nianya's black eyelashes were unblinking and she said, "I can fix them." The young man looked her up and down in surprise, then turned to Ye Wangchuan for confirmation, and received a slight nod from Ye Wangchuan.
He gave Qiao Nian a thumbs up and said in surprise: "Your husband also said that he can help us repair the signal tower."
Qiao Nian, who had an extra husband, paused for several seconds without speaking. The corners of her mouth twitched, forcing herself to acquiesce in this identity.
He said to him: "By the way, do you have any ointment here? Any medicine that can treat burns or anti-inflammatory drugs will do."
“Are you injured?” The young man glanced at her, confused as to why she wanted medicine.
Qiao Nian knew that Ye Wangchuan must have concealed his injury, and also understood why he did this. With his character of being able to calculate and control everything accurately, even if he lives on a small island, he still doesn't worry about their safety.
So while she was in coma, he never mentioned the injuries on his body to anyone, nor did he show any abnormality, to prevent the people here from threatening them.
Qiao Nian also instantly understood why she opened her eyes and saw that he was still wearing the shirt he was wearing when he fell into the sea, while she was changed into dry and clean clothes.
She explained to the boy: "Well... I scratched my hand when I fell into the water. It was just a small injury."
The young man said to her with some regret: "The weather has been bad recently, it's been raining everywhere, or it's been a storm at sea. Cargo ships haven't passed by for a long time, and the medicines in my home have almost been used up. So I don't have what you want."
Qiao Nian was not too disappointed: "It's okay, I'll go out for a walk and maybe I can find some useful herbs. And can you take me to the signal tower you mentioned?"
Ye Wangchuan came over and grabbed her wrist at this time, whispering in a low voice: "You have just woken up, there is no need to be so anxious. I will just go with him and tell you when I get back." (End of Chapter)
