Huang Tonghai saw the white yacht approaching, and standing on it was Xu Qingqing, who had shown friendliness to him before.
Huang Tonghai ripped off the mask on his face, glaring at Xu Qingqing in a fit of rage and cursing loudly.
"Xu Qingqing, you're so sly! We didn't invite you, but you secretly followed us! Don't you understand the rules of the trade?"
"I spotted this area first!"
Xu Qingqing shrugged indifferently and took out her investigator's ID, showing it to Huang Tonghai.
"Boss Huang, I'm not here to compete with you this time. I'm here to protect these cultural relics. You're suspected of illegally stealing cultural relics. Come with me obediently."
"If you resist, your charges will be aggravated."
Hearing Xu Qingqing's words, Boss Huang was instantly stunned. He was so angry that his face turned ashen, and his upper and lower teeth gritted loudly.
Huang Tonghai had no way to deal with Xu Qingqing. Furious, he turned to look at his uncle, who was also stunned.
Huang Tonghai wanted to hit him with the fishing net in his hand.
"Isn't Xu Qingqing your relative? How could she be a member of the cultural relic protection team! Explain it to me!"
The uncle also didn't expect Xu Qingqing to have such a big background. Avoiding Huang Tonghai's attack, he cried with a long face.
"Boss Huang, I really don't know about this. Please spare me!"
Boss Huang swam around but didn't catch the uncle. Calming down, seeing that Xu Qingqing and her boat were still some distance away, he wanted to escape.
Boss Huang said coldly, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and get on the boat!"
He considered himself unlucky today. He didn't get anything good but was instead caught.
Meanwhile, Gu Anrou had quietly climbed onto the boat. Struggling to turn the steering wheel, she wanted to start the boat, not caring about the people still in the water at all.
She had just come out of prison and mustn't be caught by Xu Qingqing again.
Gu Anrou randomly pressed the buttons on the boat. By accident, she really managed to start it.
Huang Tonghai and the uncle saw Gu Anrou preparing to leave in the boat and swam to the side of the boat as fast as they could.
Huang Tonghai pointed at Gu Anrou and cursed, "Gu Anrou, this is the boat I hired! You want to escape without waiting for me. Don't expect a single cent from me then!"
At this moment, Gu Anrou didn't care about maintaining their fake friendship with Huang Tonghai. She loudly retorted,
"If you guys hadn't gotten so close to Xu Qingqing, how would we have been discovered! Instead of scolding me, you'd better come and drive the boat quickly!"
Hearing that Gu Anrou couldn't even drive a boat, Huang Tonghai almost vomited blood in anger. He rushed into the cockpit and roared,
"If you can't drive a boat, why did you get on the boat so quickly? What if you break the boat?"
"Shut up and drive quickly!"
Looking at the approaching yacht of Xu Qingqing, Gu Anrou roared into Huang Tonghai's ear. She was extremely irritable.
After the Hong father and son came up from the seabed, they saw that their boat had been driven away by Huang Tonghai, and the people on the boat didn't seem to be waiting for them at all.
Old Hong waved his arms and shouted, "Hey! Wait for us. This is my boat!"
"Give my boat back to me!"
Huang Tonghai didn't care about the Hong father and son at all. He directly drove the boat towards the Hong father and son floating in the water.
If the Hong father and son hadn't been good swimmers and dodged in time, they might have been hit.
"Damn boat thief! Huang Tonghai, you'll die a bad death!"
Old Hong, who had narrowly escaped, cursed at the waves behind the boat.
Watching Huang Tonghai and the others drive away in the boat, Xu Qingqing told the bodyguards to speed up and chase them.
But Wang Lide waved his hand and told Xu Qingqing not to chase anymore.
Xu Qingqing looked at Wang Lide puzzledly. Wang Lide pointed at the sky. The sky in the east was already covered with dark clouds, approaching them at a visible speed.
"There will be a storm soon. They won't be able to go far."
Moreover, based on Wang Lide's observation just now, the three of them, Huang Tonghai included, didn't seem to be very good at driving a boat. Even if they ran, they wouldn't get far.
Seeing Wang Lide's calm expression, Xu Qingqing finally felt relieved. She only asked someone to go down and bring the two fishermen up.
Facing the black - suited men surrounding them, the two fishermen had never seen such a big scene before. They didn't dare to hide anything.
Xu Qingqing asked a question, and they answered it, telling everything about how Huang Tonghai had bribed them and how much he had promised to pay them.
Old Hong also felt very sorry for his fishing boat. Looking at the coastline where the sea met the sky, he said heart - brokenly,
"That fishing boat was built by my father. It was just taken away by these ungrateful people!"
Old Hong had seen through Huang Tonghai's true nature. His anger had reached its peak.
Unexpectedly for Wang Lide, large patches of dark clouds gathered overhead, and the wind on the sea became stronger and stronger. Xu Qingqing, who was standing at the bow of the boat, could hardly stand still.
Xu Qingqing went back into the cabin and opened the suitcase. Inside was a hat that Lu Chuanbai had specially prepared for her to prevent the sea breeze.
Xu Qingqing put on the cap and put on a thick coat. When she came out again, she felt much warmer.
The arrival of the dark clouds completely blocked the sun. The whole sky was pitch - black. It was sunny just a second ago, but the next second, it was completely dark.
Xu Qingqing tucked her hands into her sleeves and looked out at the coastline where Huang Tonghai and the others had left. In such bad weather, Huang Tonghai shouldn't be able to hold on for long and would probably come back.
As Xu Qingqing was thinking, big raindrops hit her head. They were ice - cold. Then countless huge raindrops fell from the sky.
"It's raining. Hurry into the cabin."
Xu Qingqing told everyone to go into the cabin. Uncle Meng originally wanted to stay outside to guard.
Xu Qingqing was worried that he would catch a cold from the rain, so she dragged Uncle Meng into the cabin.
"Uncle Meng, don't watch anymore. They'll be back soon. You'll catch a cold if you stay outside in the rain."
As Xu Qingqing said, she pushed Uncle Meng into the cabin.
Uncle Meng was both amused and touched. His fondness for Xu Qingqing grew even greater.
He didn't expect Xu Qingqing to care so much about a security guard.
The cabin was very big. It was even equipped with a wine cabinet, a refrigerator, and a place for barbecuing.
Xu Qingqing felt a bit hungry. She opened the refrigerator and found it was full of food.
There were fresh sandwiches, roast chickens, hamburgers, drinking water and other things.
It was obvious that Lu Chuanbai had prepared them carefully. A warm feeling flashed through Xu Qingqing's heart. She took out the food from the refrigerator and distributed it to everyone.
"Everyone, eat quickly. It's so cold today, and our bodies consume a lot of energy. Eating enough will prevent you from catching a cold."
As Xu Qingqing said, she looked out of the yacht. The world outside was completely different from the bright world inside the yacht.
The originally calm sea was swirling, making a rumbling roar.
Especially the big whirlpool behind the boat. The seawater swirled up to two or three meters high, which was really breathtaking. When the seawater collapsed, the yacht would be shaken up and down.
Big raindrops hit the deck, making a crackling sound like beans being poured out, which was really annoying.
