Jiang Lili and He Yingqin finished lunch by the beach and prepared to find a place to rest before continuing their afternoon work.

According to the current situation, when they handled everything, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon, and they had given up the 2:30 flight away from the island.

He Yingqin unscrewed a bottle of water and handed it to Jiang Lili, saying, "Among the people I know, your cooking skills should be the best, but..."

Jiang Lili put his hands into the pocket of the jacket, "But what?"

"Tang Lu's good cooking skills are trained in a difficult living environment, but you are not." He Yingqin looked at Jiang Lili, "You should be simply interested in cooking, so you have mastered a good cooking skills, right?"

"That's right." Jiang Lili looked back at He Yingqin, "But the difficult living environment - what you mean is Tang Luhe..."

Before Jiang Lili could finish speaking, He Yingqin's cell phone rang, and "Tang Lu" was displayed on the screen. He hurriedly signaled Jiang Lili to keep silent and then answered the phone.

Tang Yu said that the situation had changed, and he would use the documents signed by He Yingqin and Jiang Lili in the morning in the afternoon.

He Yingqin flipped through the documents in his backpack, looked at his watch, and said, "We can catch the 2:30 flight back. However, the matter here has not been handled yet. We were originally planning to go back at 6:00 flight back."

"Things to do in the afternoon," Tang Yu asked, "can it be done by one person?"

"It should be no problem, it just takes more time." He Yingqin thought for a while, "If Li Li doesn't let me send the documents back, I'll stay."

"Let Li Li stay and you come back." Tang Yu said, "The person we are going to meet in the afternoon is Mr. Huang."

"Uh?" The yellow face appeared in He Yingqin's mind, "Okay, I'll go back."

"Tell her about it." Tang Yu paused and reminded her, "Let her pay attention to safety."

"good."

He Yingqin told Jiang Lili about the situation. He thought Jiang Lili would be afraid, but she did not. She calmly accepted the sudden change and Tang Yu's arrangements.

"It's really unreasonable to let you stay as a girl." He Yingqin explained, "But in comparison, Tang Lu doesn't want you to contact Mr. Huang."

Jiang Lili guessed what kind of person Huang Zheng was like and said, "We will do whatever Tang Lu arranges. Go back and leave the afternoon to me."

He Yingqin gave Jiang Lili a bottle of water and a power bank, "Be careful and save the police phone number on the island."

Jiang Lili smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will get things done as soon as possible and go to the dock early."

She sent He Yingqin away, gave up her rest, took a convenience car around the island, headed straight to the next destination, visited several residents on the island, and learned about the situation from them.

Most of the people living on the island are elderly people. Jiang Lili dresses very casually today and visits the elderly in a chatty manner. Most of the elderly are willing to chat with her, and she easily gets the messages she wants to know.

The work went smoothly throughout the afternoon.

If you have to say that there is any problem, you can only be that some elderly people want to talk to her more, but it is difficult for her to refuse, so the work progress is much slower than she imagined.

At around four o'clock, Ye Jiayan sent a message asking Jiang Lili when he would go back.

"Now I can only catch the six o'clock ship," said Jiang Lili, "It may take you until after eight o'clock to get home."

Tang Yu also sent a message asking Jiang Lili how his work was going.

"It went very smoothly!" Jiang Lili said, "I visited two old people again, and finally went to find one of them to sign, and it was over."

"Okay." Tang Yu said, "Pay attention to the time." He was worried that Jiang Lili would miss the ship on the island.

Jiang Lili felt that she would not be able to do so, so she didn't have to worry about Tang Yu, but unexpectedly an accident happened at the last moment.

She controlled her time very well, signed the last document, and immediately took the convenience car to the dock.

When the convenience car was driving on the coastal highway, she even felt in the mood to enjoy the scenery along the way.

The sea breeze blows in front of you, the sun is sinking below the sea level, and the sunset is coated with a layer of golden light at the line between the sea and the sky...

The sunset by the sea...

Jiang Lili suddenly remembered that she and Ye Jiayan had watched the sunset once, and were also by the sea.

The sunset at that time seemed even more beautiful.

Maybe it's because Ye Jiayan is by his side.

Jiang Lili recalled the scene at that time, and the convenience car suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?"

She looked at the roadside and did not have the passengers to get on the bus, but she was the only passenger on the bus. She told the driver that she was going to the port to take the last ship off the island.

When she got into the car, the driver told her that there was still enough time, and when she stopped, the result was very uncertain.

The driver tried to restart the car, but the car did not respond.

Jiang Lili looked at the time and it was already 5:30 and asked, "Master, is there something wrong with the car?"

"Yes." The driver scratched his head, "I don't know what went wrong..."

“…”

Jiang Lili's brain became "buzzing" and she didn't know what to say for a moment.

She originally wanted to ask when the car could be repaired and whether she could arrive at the dock before six o'clock, but the driver didn't even know what the car had, so naturally he couldn't answer her question.

"Miss, I'm really sorry." The driver opened his wallet, "I'll refund you the fare, you can find another way to go to the dock."

"No need." Jiang Lili pushed the money back to the driver, "How far is this place from the dock?"

"It may take more than twenty minutes to walk," said the driver. "That's it. I'll ask if anyone is convenient to ride a bike to take you to the dock."

Jiang Lili thought of strangers coming, and they were now at the middle of the residential area and the wharf, so it would take time for people to come...

She decided to walk to the dock herself.

The driver was very sorry and wrote his phone number to Jiang Lili, asking her to contact him at any time if she needed help, and told Jiang Lili to go to the dock by walking straight along the highway.

Jiang Lili was afraid that it would be too late, so she walked forward quickly with a note. During this time, she took out her cell phone from her coat pocket, but found that it had turned off.

She remembered that He Yingqin had left a power bank for herself when she left. She breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly took it out and plugged it in to charge the phone.

At this time, the sun had completely sunk below sea level, the light suddenly disappeared, and the twilight finally found an opportunity to sweep the earth.

Jiang Lili clamped the bag and accelerated his pace. Suddenly, the phone in the pocket of the jacket rang.

There was no one on the road, no car, only the sound of wind and waves, and the ringtone of the mobile phone seemed particularly abrupt under such a background sound.

Jiang Lili was so scared that her heart was pounding. She took out her cell phone and saw Ye Jiayan's name on the screen. She breathed a sigh of relief and answered the phone:

"Hello?"

"Jiang Lili?" Ye Jiayan's voice was rarely a little irritable, "Didn't I tell you that the phone is kept in a state where communication can be done? What are you doing when you turn it off?"

“…”

Jiang Lili was still in shock, but was yelled by Ye Jiayan again, a little confused.

Strangely, when she heard Ye Jiayan's voice, her heart miraculously settled down almost instantly.

"Jiang Lili," Ye Jiayan's tone still sounded bad, "I'll ask why you shut down?"

Jiang Lili looked up and looked around. It was gray, and the sea completely turned blue and gray. The lighthouse on the island lit up at some point.

"I just ran out of battery." Her voice was soft, "I'm walking to the dock now."

"Now?" Ye Jiayan paused, his voice slightly raised half a tone, "Walk?"

"Um……"

Jiang Lili didn't have time to say anything, Ye Jiayan continued:

"It's almost 5:50, you haven't arrived at the dock yet?"

Jiang Lili looked at the time and called out a terrible heart in her heart, "I may not be able to catch up with the last ship off the island..."

"Aren't you with your colleagues?" Ye Jiayan's voice was a little heavy, "Why are there two people who are still busy until this time?"

"..." Jiang Lili hesitated for a moment before saying, "My colleague went back at noon."

"Are you alone now?"

"Um."

"At this time, are you walking to the dock alone?"

"Ye Jiayan..." Jiang Lili's voice suddenly lowered, "I feel... it seems that someone is behind me."

"Don't hang up the phone, don't panic, don't look back." Ye Jiayan reacted quickly, the irritability in his voice disappeared without a trace, replaced by a calm and composed calmness, "How far are you from the dock now?"

Jiang Lili held the collar of her coat with one hand and looked forward, "It's probably a little more than a kilometer, and I can already see the pier."

"Go over." Ye Jiayan said, "Even if you can't catch up with the last ship, don't leave the dock and wait for me there."

"Waiting for you?" Jiang Lili hesitated for a moment and reminded weakly, "There is no more ship to go to the island."

"I have a way." Ye Jiayan asked, "There is someone behind you?"

Jiang Lili slowed down, and a sound of footsteps that did not belong to her came into her ears along with the sound of wind and waves.

"Yes." Jiang Lili's voice was obviously a little tense.

"Where are you?" Ye Jiayan asked, "I heard a lot of wind."

"I'm on the beach." Jiang Lili looked ahead, "I was walking on the road just now and saw the sunset."

"Oh... it looks good?" Ye Jiayan asked.

"Ah?" Jiang Lili didn't expect Ye Jiayan to be interested in this. After thinking about it, she said, "Fortunately, it's not as good as she watched with you last time." After a pause, she suddenly realized that she was a bit ambiguous and emphasized, "It may be because the weather is not good today!"

"Are you sure it's because of the weather?" Ye Jiayan's tail sound rose slightly, as if full of profound meaning.

Jiang Lili knew what he wanted to say and pretended not to understand his words, "Otherwise? Of course it is because of the weather! Whether the sunrise and sunset look good depends entirely on whether the weather is good!"

"snort!"

Ye Jiayan's voice sounded more arrogant than ever.

“…”

Alas, Jiang Lili thought to herself, this person is really annoying!
