Chapter 172 DRAMA & WEDDING PART 2
Xue Lin finished her ice cream and gazed at Ge Chen. His striking feature was dazzling even at night. She thought to herself, ’One day, I will become blind.’
She cleared her throat and commented, "I like your ex-colleagues. They are warm and honest people."
Ge Chen glanced at her and threw a remark, "I know. That’s why I love working with people like them. The less they think about money, the less complicated their personality is. They aren’t greedy and they have a simple, peaceful life." He really admired selfless, simple-minded people.
Xue Lin agreed with him. "I think so too. People like that are the luckiest."
He asked, "Do you want a life like that?" If her answer was ’yes’, he would immediately turn their lives into as simple as those people’s.
Xue Lin replied without hesitation, "Nope, I need money to travel all around the world and eat more delicious food."
Ge Chen silently stared at her for a moment before chuckling. He should have guessed her answer before asking.
They went back home at dawn. Xue Lin fell asleep in the car. Ge Chen carried her home and placed her on the bedroom couch.
She will burst in anger if she finds out that she has been placed in the bed when she hasn’t taken off her outside clothes and bathed.
Ge Chen doesn’t wish to give her a hard time when she wakes up. He covered her with a thin blanket and went to take a bath. After he finished bathing, he came out while wiping his hair. He saw his cell phone blinking. He took his cell phone and saw that his subordinate called him.
He went out of the room and headed toward the study room. When he called his subordinate back, the boy answered immediately and started speaking. The first thing he did was apologizing. "Boss, I’m sorry I called you so early in the morning."
Ge Chen calmly spoke, "It’s all right. Did you get what you were looking for?"
The guy reported, "Boss, we took the latest submarine and almost went close to the Bermuda Triangles. There were so many ocean vortexes even in the deep ocean that we didn’t dare to get close. We were half a mile away from the closest vortex but it was so big and powerful that we were almost drawn to it."
He added, "It’s no wonder why Dr. Lu Feng’s submarine was destroyed. We’ve recovered some destroyed submarine parts deep down and already sent them to the research team. We are still in the Caribbean Ocean waiting for your order."
Ge Chen lowered his eyes and tapped the table with his right index finger and thought deeply about it. After a while, he asked, "You took the research ship, right?"
The person immediately replied, "Yes, boss."
Ge Chen inquired, "How long do you think you can survive there? Do you guys have enough food for all to last some time?"
The guy explained in detail, "We have preserved food for five months. If we need more, we can always buy more. We also have other supplies as well. We have brought weapons too in case we are attacked by pirates."
Ge Chen instructed, "Good, stay prepared. Even if there is no pirate, some other people can come and try to snatch everything in the disguise of pirates. Stay vigilant, stay sharp. Don’t leave the place until you get the results. Report to me as soon as possible. If there are some valuable clues, send them by the helicopter. You better directly go to Paris to the Mu Laboratory. That’s the safest place."
"Yes boss!"
"Good job with finding the pieces. If possible, take a round around the Bermuda Triangle. I’m pretty sure Lu Feng went inside it. If you get an opportunity, don’t hesitate and bring me whatever you see." Ge Chen calmly ordered.
"All right, boss, I’ll go down today and look for an opening. Thank you for your time," saying that the subordinate hung up.
Ge Chen looked outside the window. The sun began to rise and birds were chirping to welcome a new day. After last night’s activity, he was supposed to feel tired but after getting the call, he felt reinvigorated.
’I can’t wait for some more good news from Bermuda,’ he thought.
When Xue Lin woke up, she found herself on the couch. Since she changed her clothes in the amusement park, she was wearing a dress. She was pleased that her husband didn’t throw her on the bed. She was such a freak for cleanliness.
She looked at the wall clock and saw that it was already lunchtime. She remembered she was supposed to go to her parents’ house today. She was already too late.
"Holy!" She abruptly stood up. Her feet were still hurting because she walked a lot the whole night throughout the park. She limped all the way to the bathroom.
She quickly took off her clothes and was about to turn on the shower when she saw a man’s naked back.
"..." She wasn’t sure what she was seeing at first since it was the first time she had ever seen a man’s naked back. She halted and narrowed her eyes. Her eyesight was still a bit hazy. She confusedly stared at him thinking, ’What’s that creature?’
Ge Chen was enjoying a relaxing shower. He suddenly felt that someone was boring a hole into his back. He turned off the shower and looked back. He found a naked Xue Lin looking at him dumbfounded.
The fog blew away and Xue Lin saw the man staring at him. Only then she noticed that it was her husband. Her dead brain went into overdrive. ’Oh, so Chen is bathing... wait... if he is bathing then...’ her eyes roamed on the muscled body. It was wet and several droplets of water were rolling down.
She also realized that she herself was also stark naked. And when she did...
"AAAHHHH!"
