Chapter 1120 - I Want to Buy You An Island
Panda Novel
“Okay, noted,” Gu Juexi replied. After he hung up the call, he tossed the phone to his daughter, who had been trying to snatch it from him.
Ye Yuwei looked back at her daughter who was happily lying on the bed playing with the phone on her hands. Even she didn’t dare to touch his phone, but he would hand it over to the little princess whenever she wanted it.
Since his phone was in his daughter’s hand, Gu Juexi grabbed Ye Yuwei’s phone, keyed in the password to unlock the screen, and made a call.
Ye Yuwei was agitated. She had made the wrong decision by revealing her password.
“Yuwei?”
“It’s me,” Gu Juexi uttered.
Gu Juexi’s deep voice caught Lu Qichuan by surprise but he quickly regained his composure. They were husband and wife after all, so it was normal for them to swap phones. He waved at the secretary, gesturing at her to get out, and leaned back in his chair. “Boss.”
“What happened to the island?” Gu Juexi cut to the chase and asked.
“I thought Rambo had told you everything,” Lu Qichuan chuckled as he got up and walked towards the window. He stood there, staring at the pedestrians outside and reported, “I’ve been there to take a look and it is in fact inhabited. It’s just a deserted island and the inhabitant you mentioned was supposedly at the same place where you were washed ashore. The smoke you saw was probably an illusion reflected by the sunlight.
Illusion?
Gu Juexi twitched his lips in amusement at his remark. It was a fascinating island. If the island itself could create an illusion, then the human who stumbled upon it would definitely cross the jungle in order to escape and survive, yet the jungle was impossible to cross due to its dangerous nature. This was what they called a natural defense system.
Gu Juexi must admit that it was not an easy task to cross the jungle even by himself. Moreover, Ye Yuwei was with him at that time.
He could survive all thanks to Goldflow rocks.
The island had remained inhabited and undiscovered because no one could leave there alive.
People in the south thought that there were inhabitants in the north or vice versa, and that was the deadliest temptation the island provided.
Gu Juexi curled his lips into a mischievous smile. The island was a great place.
“The island is surrounded by layers of airflow with different densities, and it is difficult for ships to dock. Even helicopters can only pass through the airflow at a certain time, so—”
“It is a great place,” Gu Juexi said, with the mischievous smile still spread across his face. He obviously had a strong interest in the island.
Ye Yuwei listened to Gu Juexi as she looked at his back. She was curious about his conversation with Lu Qichuan.
“Okay, I understand. The island belongs to the Country U administrative district, but because the people who go ashore never return, Country U doesn’t have any jurisdiction on the island. I guess Country U would be very glad to sell you the island. After all, there aren’t many people with money and a crazy brain.”
Because he had predicted this to happen, Lu Qichuan had done his homework long ago just for this moment.
Gu Juexi felt that more and more people were being disrespectful towards him lately, and the culprit was the woman.
After he ended the call, he tossed the phone back to Ye Yuwei. She grabbed it swiftly and asked, “What were you and Brother Lu talking about?”
“I want to buy you an island,” Gu Juexi said in the casual and laid-back tone.
Ye Yuwei and Ye Xicheng stared at him in disbelief and shock.
Ye Yuwei mimed, “Do you hear what your father has just said?”
Ye Xicheng mimed back, “I think I may have heard it wrong.”
Flowers and diamond rings were common gifts for the ladies, but the old meatball had chosen an island as a gift.
Moreover, Gu Juexi’s solemn and serious face didn’t seem like he was joking.
“What—what island?” Ye Yuwei squeaked in astonishment.
