Nian Shutong grabbed a rope on the boat with one hand and turned to ask Fu Yunhe, "Do you know how to operate a boat?"
"Sure."
With his one word response, full of conviction, Nian Shutong said with satisfaction, "Very good."
Nian Shutong extended a hand, palm up, and said to Fu Yunhe, "Come on! I'll help you aboard."
Fu Yunhe had words on the tip of his tongue, hesitated, and finally extended a hand, placing it in Nian Shutong's palm.
The next second, he felt a strong tug at his wrist, and before he knew it, he was standing on the deck.
Nian Shutong reached out again and said to Dou Dou, "Come over here, I'll carry you."
Dou Dou blinked her starry eyes and trotted over with her little short legs.
"Thank you, Auntie."
Her sweet and syrupy child's voice made Nian Shutong quite fond of her.
She picked up Dou Dou with a light jump, and when you looked again, they were both standing on the boat.
