My Mysterious Husband novel Chapter 230

He believed that blood was thicker than water, and as long as Venus and the baby were rescued safely, the baby would definitely accept him after he spending more time with him.

The next dawn, Kerry and Nighthawk dressed up and went downstairs. Nighthawk were sleeping on the floor of their room in order to take care of Kerry.

To think that Gina was standing in the courtyard waiting for them, but with no luggage with her.

"Gina, why are you...?" asked Kerry.

After a night of contemplation, Gina smiled a small smile, showing her white teeth and saying, "I looked it up on the Internet. There’s only one flight to China which is at eight in the morning, so I guess you will take the earliest ferry to the airport."

Kerry walked up to her with a heavy heart. Gina was a pretty and kind girl, but in Kerry's mind, she was more like his younger sister.

"Gina, thank you." Kerry said sincerely.

"You're welcome. I'm glad to meet you." Gina paused and smiled, "If I go to China in the future, can I come to you? And please let your wife be my guide."

Kerry also smiled a very warm smile, "Of course, I'll cover all the expenses, if you come."

"Good, don't you forget it."

Kerry then took out his cell phone, "What's your phone number? I'll call you so you can save my number. I won't change it."

Kerry dialed out the number Gina had said. A pleasant ringing sound came from nowhere in the silent air.

"Remember to call me when you come to China."

Gina nodded, "Okay," Then, she looked at him with a smile, biting her lip a few times and saying, "You are the first man I liked, and since you're leaving now, can you give me a hug?"

Hesitating for two seconds, Kerry took the initiative to reach out to hug her gently and patted on her back, saying softly. "Gina, you're a very good girl and deserve a better man."

Gina's eyes instantly moistened. She left his embrace, "Be careful on your way. I won't see you off as I have to go back to get more sleep. See you later, Kerry and Nighthawk."

"Bye."

As time was running out, Kerry and Nighthawk left Gina's house immediately. But the person who said she wanted to go back to catch up on sleep, stood at the door and looked away until they disappeared at the end of the alley, and the tears in her eyes finally rolled down.

To be in love was the best thing that could happen to a young girl, but unfortunately, it's neither at the right time, not with the right person.

With the departure of Gavin, Heng Zhang and Alisa, the search on the island was much weaker, especially so early in the morning. Thus, there’s no soldiers with guns on the streets except for travelers in a hurry and vendors.

Once on the boat, Kerry asked Nighthawk in a low voice, "Where are the others?"

"They were already at the airport last night," Nighthawk answered.

The boat soon left the dock. Kerry set his eyes on the island for the last time, with no attachment in his heart; the only thing on his mind now was Venus.

...

The moment Venus got off the plane with her baby in her arms, she was extremely happy, because there were people with the same skin color and speaking the same language as her.

Gavin had really come to China, and thought the air was so much fresher.

On the wall was a huge poster of a local tourist attraction, which reminded Venus of the historical story that Kerry had told her. That story seemingly happened in this province.

Gavin was very fast to figure out where the map pointed to in just a few days. Mr. Cai must have helped a lot in this.

For more than a day, Venus spent all her time in the sky. First, she took a helicopter and then civil aircraft. She could bear it as an adult, but her baby was very irritable. It seemed that he felt uncomfortable in Venus’s arm. He kept tossing about, and could not settle down at all.

When out of the closed space finally, the little guy looked around the new environment, and his special pupils, as well as Gavin's gorgeous mask, attracted a lot of attention.

Venus welcomed the attention, as it could leave more clues for Kerry to find her more easily.

"Come back. Don't make me say it twice."

Venus reluctantly turned back to her bed and put the kids in their bags for bed.

Alisa's voice was especially cold in the stillness of the night, "Venus, if you do it again, I don't mind breaking your legs. So, you'll even lose the baby."

Venus pulled the blanket up and turned sideways to her, muffling her voice, "Got it."

"Heavens, doesn't this woman sleep? " Venus thought. “Or she sleeps with one eye open and one eye closed, so she can notice even my light move, doesn’t she?”

The next day, they were still on the way. Alisa didn't seem to tell Gavin about what Venus had done last night, but Gavin was still indifferent to her, and only when she was with the baby, she had the slightest tenderness in her eyes.

The baby's memory was short. After a few days of journey, and constant exposure to new things, the baby's in a better mood, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

In the evening, the car stopped in a valley of mountainous peaks in southern Fujian Province after a day-long journey.

This should be the first step of Gavin's treasure hunt.

The final map drawn by Kerry was not very accurate, but indicated that the treasure was located in a cave in this large mountain range.

Of course, if the map had been accurate, the treasure hunters would not have come and gone.

Gavin was very excited when he looked at the sleeping mountain in the twilight. As Mr. Cai said, this land was once a magical place, full of all kinds of sorcery and strange things, and it was not strange that the Minyue Kingdom could disappear overnight.

At first, Gavin didn't believe in such ghost lore, so he was hesitant to set out.

"Stay and watch her tomorrow, so you don't have to follow us into the mountains." At dinner, Gavin said to Alisa.

"Yes, boss." Alisa answered coldly, but her reluctance was obvious. She was more willing to explore than to spend a day with this troublesome woman.

Venus was relieved to hear this decision. She was really afraid that Gavin would force her to go into the mountain together. She might be able to hold on, but the child would never be able to stand it as the mountain's miasma was too heavy.
