Doting on the Masked Wife

Hearing his words and the sound of him putting the camera on the table, the man's shoulders trembled slightly, as if he was also very excited.

But he still didn't look back.

Ananda stood there, as excited as every time he saw him.

After a while, the man said, "Is she... all right?"

Ananda nodded quickly and said, "It's much better. She gained a little weight than before, but she's still so thin... By the way, because she was on the boat with us and was exposed to direct sunlight for a long time, she got a little tanned..."

These words made the man seem to smile slightly.

"Really?...that...that's good too..."

That was all he said, and then fell silent again.

"I'm sorry, I treated Ms. Tong'er like that before, she... Her hands seem to be a little thicker, and they have calluses... I'm sorry..."

Ananda said guiltily.

Instead, the man said quietly: "It doesn't matter, as long as she doesn't care, it doesn't matter."

Ananda's eyes turned red, and tears were about to gush out of the tall and thick man.

"I'm sorry..." all he said was, "I'm the bastard!"

The man quietly, with his back turned to him, asked again in a low voice: "Is... is she happier?"

"She doesn't always laugh." In fact, it's not just that she doesn't laugh very much. Ananda has never seen her laugh. The lively and innocent girl who laughed so innocently seems to be gone forever.Now she is so sad, silent.It's just that Ananda didn't dare to speak out, because...he was afraid that if he told the truth, the person in front of him would be just as sad. "I don't like talking too much. But fortunately, everyone on board is very kind to her, and Ruth and her are also very kind. I think she should be in a happier mood than when she first came on board."

The man fell silent.

After a long time, Ananda became a little nervous, and then he heard the man whisper, "Okay... If she can be happier, that's good..."

After finishing speaking, he stopped talking.

There was a long silence.

Ananda finally couldn't help it: "Why don't you go see her? Why don't you go and pick her up? After so much, you should have been together a long time ago!"

The man didn't answer.

After a while, he said softly: "Forget it... As long as I know that she is okay and happy, I can rest assured..."

"But……"

"In this life, I won't appear in front of her, and I won't disturb her life. She has suffered enough from me in this life, and I owe her too much."

"But……"

The man interrupted Ananda, and suddenly asked, "Is Ruth okay?"

Ananda nodded, "She's fine."

The man sighed slightly: "You have been taking care of her for so many years, thank you for your hard work."

"No, no, if not, I can do something for you, I think it's my honor..." Ananda said excitedly, "If you still don't think I'm a useless person with a broken leg, I will do it for you." What does it matter if you do something?"

The man said softly: "Ruth has never been on land, has she?"

"Yes, she has been on the boat since our people rescued her." Ananda thought for a while, then sighed, "Miss Ruth is a real hard-working person."

The man did not speak.

"I think she must have told Ms. Tong'er about Yani, and I think Ms. Tong'er probably believed her words." Ananda sighed again, "But that's fine, let her hold this A hope, so that we can live a good life.”

The man said: "What else do you need, make a list to my assistant and ask them to give it to you in the next Hong Kong."

Ananda nodded, but he continued: "Actually, we don't need anything. After so many years, I'm used to it and like this kind of life, but I hope to see you...can..."

The man fell silent.

His back was merged into the sunset, and no one saw the expression on his face.

**

In a blink of an eye, another three months passed.

Quickly, a year passed.

For so long, it's the same every time.

Ananda got off the boat at the port with the camera, went to meet the man, and then came back again, continuing to sail the boat on the sea.

It was like this every time, that person would be waiting for him at that port in advance.

Waiting for his photo, waiting for his report.

He was still so silent, occasionally smiling slightly because of one or two small happy things Ananda said about Ning Tonger, and then quickly fell silent again.

Ananda wanted to say to him several times: Go and fetch Miss Tonger back.

However, he always interrupts.

He would rather run around like this, would rather hide himself behind his back like this, only thinking about how she is doing and whether she is happy, but he never wants to appear in front of her again.

Finally, this time, Ananda couldn't bear it anymore.

He did it on purpose.

When he took Ning Tonger's photo again so that he could give it to that person, he purposely took a close photo so that Ning Tonger could see it.

He waited for Ning Tonger to find him, so that she could come and ask him what was going on, and then he could tell her why, and then... could they be together?

He deliberately exposed his figure, but Ning Tong'er turned her head and clearly saw him.

But she said nothing.

She was also so silent, even more silent than that person.

Ananda watched helplessly as she turned her head, but turned her head back again, her black and soft hair was constantly blowing in the sea breeze, her side face was still beautiful, but she was still silent.

Ananda froze for a moment, then suddenly ran up with the camera.

"Miss Tong'er, why don't you ask me why I secretly took your picture?"

Ning Tong'er turned her back to him, her thin body seemed to be blown away by the sea breeze at any time.After a few seconds, she still turned her head, her black hair was blown by the wind, covering her eyes.

Looking ahead, her voice was very quiet and quiet.

It was as quiet as if there would never be a wave of waves.

"I do not want to know."

"You don't want to know..." Ananda said excitedly, "because you already know who I'm going to give your photo to, right?"

Ning Tonger didn't speak.

Ananda said, "Do you know...he misses you very much, really misses you..."

He looked like he was about to cry: "Miss Tong'er, when I beg you, can you..."

Ning Tonger's clear eyes looked into the distance, and after a long time, her gaze flickered.

"At the next port, I will disembark with you."

Ananda held the camera, his eyes lit up!

**

Two months passed in a blink of an eye, time flies, Ning Tonger is still so silent, but occasionally stands on the bow and looks into the distance, what is she looking at, what is she thinking?

Nobody knows.

Maybe you are also a person with a story, and you will be able to understand her difficulties in being silent in the end.

This time approaching the port, Ananda was excited like never before.

The crew joked and said, "Captain, where are you going to take our little girl? Don't sell her, or we won't spare you when you come back! Hahahaha..."

Ning Tong'er was standing behind Ananda, carrying a small bag, and when she heard these kind people joking around, she just smiled and didn't speak.

Ananda's excitement was indescribable, he didn't even know how excited that person would be when he saw Ning Tong'er.

So he didn't bother with these bears anymore.

"Go, go!" He kicked these guys' buttocks, joking and joking, "Go and do what you like, and stop meddling in other people's business!"

He thought to himself: This is the last time for Ning Tonger to meet them.

This time, she should go back with him.

After landing, Ananda and Ning Tonger went to the agreed hotel by car.

On the way, Ning Tonger asked softly, "Is...is he alright?"

Ananda was taken aback when he heard this, and almost couldn't react: "Okay, okay, okay!"

Then he said: "No, not at all... You know, how can he be well without you by his side? He..."

After thinking for a while, he said puzzledly again: "You care about him, and he also misses you wholeheartedly, but isn't it a pity that you are not together like this, wasting so much time? I really don't understand."

Ning Tong'er just smiled slightly, but didn't speak.

She turned her head and looked at the scenery outside the car window, her eyes were melancholy and distant.

"But it's great for you to be together this time, thank God!" Ananda said excitedly, "Actually, if he knew, he would definitely come to pick you up immediately, but you don't let us... from now on, we will be fine , It also saves me from worrying. Do you know Miss Tonger? He is very worried about you. He is more sad than anything when you are exposed to wind and rain on the boat, but he endured it and just let me take good care of you..."

Ning Tong'er didn't answer.

After a while, when the car was almost on the way to the hotel, Ning Tonger suddenly said: "I'm a little thirsty, please stop the car, I'll get out and buy a bottle of water."

The taxi driver stopped the car, and Ananda hurriedly said, "How can I ask Ms. Tonger to go in person?"

He opened the car door: "I'll go, Miss Tong'er, wait for me here."

He ran to the nearest store in a hurry, Ning Tonger looked at his back and lowered his head sadly.

Gently, put the small bag in your hand on the seat.

Ananda came back with the mineral water, his face still happy, but when he opened the car door, he froze.

"Miss Tong'er?"

His face suddenly became extremely nervous: "Miss Tonger? Miss Tonger?"

He held on to the car door and grabbed the driver: "Where is she?"

The taxi driver shrugged: "She said she got out of the car first."

At that time, Ananda felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and he involuntarily let go of the driver's hand, but he was completely stunned.

Unknowingly, her eyes fell on Ning Tonger's seat, where her bag was placed.

Ananda rushed over to pick up the bag, and quickly opened the zipper.

There was only one sealed letter inside.

Holding the letter, Ananda was on the verge of tears.

The driver shrugged again: "Sir, do we still have to go to our destination? Or do you want to get off too?"
