Chapter 770 She Is Smarter Than You Think
"Sorry, I accidentally said so many boring things."
Aware of Jack Su's perfunctory, Yan Xiaye smiled slightly as he judged the situation, and shifted the topic to a more urgent question: "So, can I use the satellite phone on this boat? As long as I get in touch with my family, Including the fee, it will be returned to the captain."
"Unfortunately, as you can see, this ship is not as grand as a cruise ship. There is no network or signal connection on board."
Jack Su spread out his hands solemnly, and made an objective evaluation: "What's more, since you have been in a coma for a long time, this place is probably quite far from your hometown. Although there is a satellite phone on the island, the cost of using it once is quite high."
Yan Xiaye was stunned, "That is to say, it can't be used in debt?"
"Of course, I said that the captain dislikes losing money business the most. Even if you say that your family can afford the remuneration, it can't change your current penniless state. In this case, the captain probably won't invest in you for two meals. Any other note, not even the smallest denomination."
The captain's stinginess and caution made Yan Xiaye speechless, and fell into silence with his head bowed.
And it wasn't until now that she realized that the number she remembered most clearly belonged to Li Yuntang, and the other was Li Beicheng, who had a deep relationship with her.
Like most people at the same time, all other numbers are saved in the mobile phone. In the past, it was a simple search and call. Now let her recall those fleeting numbers. It would be too difficult for her to succeed once.
Seeing that Xia Ye was so sad that she couldn't speak, Jack Su reminded her with a half-smile, "Unless you have something on you that can be used to pay for it? Precious metals or gems are fine."
"There were originally..."
Hearing this, Yan Xiaye raised her hand and touched her neck, remembering the platinum necklace she put aside.
That was the only thing she had worth at the moment. Although the value might not be worth the cost of a call, she still didn't intend to entrust it to others before seeing the captain with her own eyes.
"Oh, I understand, it's because of falling into the sea, and they were all washed away by the waves." Jack Su nodded slightly to express regret, and sighed helplessly, as if he didn't take those jewels away with his own hands: " That's too bad, well, I'll try to talk it over with the head chef and see if I can help you, but I'm afraid the pay isn't high."
Yan Xiaye's clear black and white eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked up at the tall and long-legged foreign man beside the bed, "It's okay, even if I can't repay the captain's kindness immediately, as long as I can offset the meal expenses, I can't wait for it." .”
Jie Kesu bent his eyes with a half-smile, condescendingly taking a panoramic view of her slender figure.
There was something other than enthusiasm or covetousness in that gaze, which stifled the smile in Yan Xiaye's eyes, and suddenly felt frightened.
She had carefully considered what she asked him to do. Under such an extraordinary situation, she did use some tactics to retreat. If he thought it was troublesome, he could just refuse her directly.
And the man agreed as she expected, but he seemed very reluctant... Where did she provoke him?
After a long while, Jack Su smiled nonchalantly, "It's really cunning, even if there is no benefit to be asked by such a lovely lady like you, I don't think there is any man in the world who is willing to refuse, right?"
Yan Xiaye observed the man in bewilderment, and found that he had changed back to the good man he was before. It seemed that Pian Technology's shock was just her illusion.
However, the coolness of that moment still lingers in her heart, causing her to hesitate to say thank you: "I'm sorry, is it because my request is too capricious and has caused you trouble?"
"Fortunately, anyway, whether to hire you or not is not up to me."
"Although this is the case, when I get in touch with my family, I will definitely remember to bring you a gift as a thank you for today."
Jack Su looked at her meaningfully, his wild smile was quite different from his status as a cook, "Okay, then I won't wait with any expectation."
After saying this impolite sentence, he held the tray and bowed slightly to Yan Xia Ye, and walked gracefully out of the cabin like a real gentleman.
Passing through the dark passage of the lower cabin, he returned to the windy deck again, threw the tray into the sea, leaned on the mast and lit a cigarette.
Well, if the comatose man was his destined enemy, then it was barely reasonable that the enemy's wife was smarter than he imagined.
Before throwing Yan Xiaye into the cabin, he personally took away all the remaining belongings from her, and specially left her a thin and worthless chain, just to see how she would behave and react.
Under normal circumstances, for unsuspecting captives, as long as a little girl like Mia is sent to deal with it, the captives can easily mess up the rules and spontaneously give away the belongings they carry with them. In the future, he becomes an obedient and easy-to-deceive fat sheep and hostage.
However, he believed that he cooperated with the woman for a long time, but she didn't say a word about the necklace. Even if she really needed a job, she didn't intend to bribe him with the necklace.
Casually taking a puff of his cigarette, Jack Su unbuttoned his tie roughly and stuffed it into his trousers in a ball, neither understanding nor caring what brand it was.
The first meeting was not as smooth as he had imagined, even if he disguised himself as a clown in a suit and leather shoes, he still failed to lower the woman's vigilance.
Is it because she is cautious by nature?As stingy as the captain?
Or is it another reason?
"Uncle, the captain asked you to go over to discuss the repair fee and everyone's bonus... Pfft, why are you dressed like this?"
On the other side, Mia, who was in charge of doing chores, came from a distance, and immediately laughed when she saw the man pretending to be a gentleman, and complained shamelessly: "It doesn't suit you at all, those guys said what happened to you and Ai Li, I still don't believe it, now it seems that I was wrong, I didn't expect you to be interested in occupying the bed partner's clothes."
"Ah, it's really noisy."
He blew out a smoke ring as an answer. Jack Su was not interested in explaining his ambiguous relationship with Aili. He stroked the non-existing scabbard around his waist with his slender fingers, and asked suddenly: "Mia, do you like fairy tale books?" Is it?"
"I'm long past the age of reading fairy tale books, okay?" Mia stared at him inexplicably, "Are you referring to the ones with princes and princesses, or the ones with Dragon Quest?"
