C132 The Door Was Locked
In an instant, the sky and the sea open up!
Standing at the highest point of Granite Island, looking out, the blue sea surface and the horizon intersected.
Close to dusk, the sunset burned the clouds in the horizon into a fiery red. The sea surface was red, and Hai Xiaomin's little face was also red.
"So beautiful!" The sea breeze blew against her face, and she could not help but sigh in satisfaction.
Suddenly, she realized that Ling Yao did not have any reaction. She turned her head strangely and found that he was leaning sideways against the wall, staring at her side profile calmly.
The man's facial features were deep and three-dimensional. He was coated with a layer of orange afterglow of the setting sun. It was as if his entire body was glowing. It was incomparably dazzling and made it difficult for people to look away.
This man was truly a monster!
"Why aren't you looking at such a beautiful scenery? Why are you staring at me?" She asked curiously.
Hai Xiaomin did not know that at this moment, she was also covered with a halo. Her beautiful face was full of smiles and was exceptionally beautiful and moving!
Ling Yao muttered, "It seems like I have found something worth repaying."
"Ah?" Hai Xiaomin slightly opened her mouth and said something without thinking. What did it mean?
He faced the sea and calmly said, "Look at the sunset."
"Hai Xiaomin's mouth slightly twitched.
Mud and coal! Was he playing with her? When it was time to see the sunset, he wanted to see her. When he asked him, he said he wanted to see the sunset!
The two of them no longer communicated. Their arms were on the wall that was half the height of a person. They watched the sunset slowly sink towards the horizon. As time passed, the warm color of the sky gradually turned cold, and the blue and blue became deeper.
"It's about time. Let's go back." Hai Xiaomin turned sideways.
"Okay, okay!" Ling Yao raised his hand to support her again.
Hai Xiaomin smiled and avoided him. She raised her walking stick. "I only twisted my leg a little. Don't treat me like a cripple, okay?"
He was already enough for her to climb all the way up. With such a few steps, there was no problem for her to climb up and down.
Ling Yao's thin lips moved slightly, as if he had something to say. When the words were about to come out of his mouth, he realized what he should say. He calmly took back his hand and nodded. "Be careful."
That's right, he was right. He wasn't qualified to meddle in other people's business. He had to know when to stop.
There were more than twenty steps to the spiral staircase. Because she had the experience of using crutches before, Hai Xiaomin did not walk with much effort. Her back was very thin and delicate, but it gave off a sense of tenacity.
Ling Yao followed behind her and did not rush her.
At the last few steps, his eyes were still on her back when he heard her surprised voice. "Huh? Why is the door closed?"
He looked up and indeed, the small iron door that came in was closed.
"It can't be locked, right?" Hai Xiaomin was a little worried and quickly stepped forward with her crutch. With a pull and push, her face changed, "It really is locked..."
Ling Yao followed up. After observing, he said in a low voice, "The lock from outside."
They were on the west side of the lighthouse, and the door from the bottom was to the east. They did not even notice that the door was locked.
"What should we do then? We can't be locked inside all the time, right?" Hai Xiaomin was somewhat anxious. She slammed the iron door, creating a huge commotion, hoping that someone would come.
"I think someone will only come to open the door tomorrow morning." Ling Yao stood there, helpless in the face of this situation.
Hai Xiaomin was suddenly stunned and looked at him blankly, "But the Syah set sail at five o'clock in the morning..."
Every guest who left the ship was told to return to the ship after dark, but they did not know the exact time. Hai Xiaomin was a staff member, so she naturally knew. If the door was opened late, plus the dock from Granite Island to the Syah dock, there was still a distance...
Ling Yao also thought of this in an instant. Jun Pang froze, rolled up his sleeves and started again. "Then we are really in a hurry! There should be someone guarding near the lighthouse. Let's see if we can call them over."
"Okay!" Hai Xiaomin nodded and proactively knocked on the door as she shouted, "Hey! Is there anyone? Is there anyone outside..."
Ling Yao also knocked on the door with her.
After a while, no one responded.
Hai Xiaomin was a little discouraged, "Why didn't anyone come?"
Ling Yao was deep in thought, and his dark eyes flashed mischievously in the darkness, "Maybe it's because I don't understand Mandarin?"
"Is that so?" Hai Xiaomin lifted the corner of her lips with uncertainty. Even if she did not understand Mandarin, she could at least notice that someone was locked in the lighthouse.
Alright, maybe the person really heard the call, but because he did not understand what it meant, he did not take it to heart.
Hence, Hai Xiaomin changed to English and shouted.
After a while...
"Ahem ~" Her throat was dry. Luckily, she had a bottle of water in her bag. She drank it to moisturize her mouth. She turned her head and found that Ling Yao's hands were empty. She hesitated for a moment and handed the water over. "There is only one bottle. Just give it a try."
Ling Yao took the bottle of water and drank it. Both of them had even kissed. Why would he care about this?
"Still no one came." Hai Xiaomin let out a breath and leaned against the door softly.
After drinking the water, Ling Yao rotated the cap of the bottle and continued to come up with ideas. "Maybe the sound can't be transmitted out. Let's go upstairs and try."
"This is the only way."
The two of them climbed up again and climbed to the top of the lighthouse. Hai Xiaomin leaned her crutch against the wall and put her hands by her mouth like a megaphone. She shouted loudly.
After shouting twice, she finally realized that something was wrong.
She turned her head suspiciously, "Why didn't you shout?"
The man leaned against the outer wall and said leisurely and leisurely, "Why are you in such a hurry? It's not like I can't go back. I'll just find another boat at the dock tomorrow."
Hai Xiaomin looked at him and was really envious and jealous. Indeed, wherever the guests went, if they wanted to stay for a while longer, they could leave the boat at any time. However, she was different. As a staff member, she could not leave her post without permission!
"No way! No, there are still activities on the cruise tomorrow. I have to make a call quickly." If anything happens on the island, you can ask for help.
Hai Xiaomin quickly looked for her phone.
Ling Yao stared at her ankle and the shoe box with Hate the Heavens. He frowned and said, "Your ankle is injured. How do you work?"
"It's a small problem. Just bear with it." Hai Xiaomin casually replied and continued to rummage through the bag. She did not notice that the man's gaze was deep.
The work that she was on required a uniform at formal occasions. She would definitely wear high heels for tomorrow's activities. The originally light sprain could be aggravated because of this. Her own body, she actually did not take it seriously!
"Strange, where's my phone?" Hai Xiaomin searched her entire body but did not find any trace of the phone. She was a little stunned. "Oh no, I lost my phone!"
"When did it disappear?"
"It should have been when I fell." He recalled the time when he was knocked down. His phone was still in his hand. After that, Ling Yao came over and carried her away. He didn't remember finding the phone.
Hai Xiaomin inserted her five fingers into the hairline and rubbed her forehead in annoyance. With a sad expression, she bit her lower lip and there were tears rolling in her eyes. Seriously, how could she be so careless...0
