Xiao Yun helped lift the inflatable boat from behind. Halfway, she slipped and fell forward, pulling Guo Xuyang’s swim trunks down.
Guo Xuyang, with both hands occupied by the inflatable boat, found it awkward to put it down.
There was no other way but for Xiao Yun to help pull them up.
Both of them ended up blushing.
Ilona became even more curious about the two of them.
Finally reaching the top of the slide, Guo Xuyang adjusted his swim trunks again with his hands.
“Alright, we’re finally here. Let’s get ready to slide,” Guo Xuyang said, about to move forward. But Xiao Yun grabbed him.
“I’ll go first. You wait before going down.”
“Okay, ladies first. You and Ilona go first. I’ll go after you,” Guo Xuyang said.
Water slides are all about height, speed, and thrills.
From the top, the angle is quite steep. Place the inflatable boat onto the water slide, sit inside, and slide down.
As soon as she went down, Xiao Yun’s high-pitched screams were heard.
She dared to scream but not to let go.
Her hands tightly gripped the handles of the inflatable boat as she slid down.
The journey was short, taking less than three minutes to reach the pool at the bottom.
Ilona was very composed, not screaming loudly, and slid down smoothly.
When Guo Xuyang slid down, the two of them conspired to flip his inflatable boat, tossing him into the water.
Swimming and surfing, the three of them had a blast.
The sky gradually darkened, and the three were tired. They each found a lounge chair to rest.
“Mr. Guo, shall I take you to try the delicious Hundred Beast Feast here later?” Ilona asked.
“What is the Hundred Beast Feast?” Xiao Yun asked.
“It’s roasted beef, roasted lamb, chicken, and things like that. You’ll know when you try it later. It’s very delicious,” Ilona said.
“Then let’s go now,” Xiao Yun said eagerly.
“Let’s rest a bit longer. After resting, we’ll go back to change and then head over,” Ilona said. “The ingredients for the Hundred Beast Feast should have just started roasting by this time.”
“Shall we go back to our rooms? It’s getting a bit chilly,” Guo Xuyang said.
“Alright,” Ilona said, getting up.
Her ample bosom made Guo Xuyang stare blankly.
“If you keep staring, I’ll pinch you out,” Xiao Yun said, fiercely pinching the soft flesh on Guo Xuyang’s waist.
The pain made Guo Xuyang almost jump.
This little girl was clearly jealous.
The three of them returned to their rooms to change clothes before going to the restaurant.
When Guo Xuyang had finished changing, he didn’t see Xiao Yun and Ilona come out. Assuming they were putting on makeup inside, he turned around and went back, lying down on the bed and falling asleep.
By the time he woke up, it was past eleven at night, and the two of them hadn’t come to call him.
He sensed something was wrong and quickly focused his gaze towards Ilona’s room. There was no sign of anyone inside.
He panicked.
In this unfamiliar place, if someone got lost, finding them again would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
He rushed downstairs. There were only two beautiful receptionists at the front desk. He explained the situation briefly. Fortunately, one of them spoke a little Mandarin.
“Please speak slowly, sir. I don’t quite understand. Please don’t worry,” the receptionist said.
“How can I not worry when people are missing?” Guo Xuyang said.
“You’re saying the two ladies are missing?” the receptionist asked.
“Yes.”
“When did they go missing? How did you find out?”
“We finished playing in the outdoor recreation area in the afternoon and went back to our rooms to rest. I fell asleep. I just woke up and found that the two of them were gone.”
“Did they go out? Did you call them?”
Her question reminded Guo Xuyang. Why hadn’t he thought of that? He had only been worried.
“Sorry, the number you have dialed is switched off.” Guo Xuyang’s heart sank.
He then called Lu Liang: “Brother Liang, where are you now? Xiao Yu and Ilona are missing.”
“What? How are they missing? When did this happen?” Lu Liang asked.
“I just found out. We are at the Sun City Hotel. Could you give me Ilona’s phone number?”
“Don’t rush. Let me call and find out the situation first?”
Less than two minutes later, Lu Liang called back: “Ilona’s phone is also switched off. Wait there, I’ll contact someone to come over, and I’ll be there myself.”
“Don’t come over. Send me Ilona’s phone number. I’ll go find them,” Guo Xuyang said.
“Alright then. Be careful, and call me immediately if you have any news.”
“Okay, Brother Liang. I’ll call you as soon as I find them.”
Guo Xuyang hung up and asked the receptionist to open Ilona’s room upstairs.
He maximized his perception and sensed that after the two returned, they first went to the bathroom, showered, wrapped themselves in towels, and came out. Then, they drank some water, lay on the bed, and slowly became still.
Later, a plump woman entered the room. She put the two of them onto a trolley and then went down to the parking lot.
A robust man placed Ilona and Xiao Yun into the car trunk, gave her a wad of cash, kissed her forehead, and then left.
Was there something wrong with the water? Was there something wrong with that plump woman? But where could he find this plump woman?
He dared not call the police, fearing he would alert the culprits. He didn’t dare to trust anyone now.
“Hello, may I ask your name?” Guo Xuyang asked the receptionist in front of him. He could only rely on her.
After all, he was unfamiliar with this place.
“My name is Nataya,” the receptionist replied.
“Nataya? I need your help now. I hope you can help me find my companions. Would you be willing?”
“I am very willing to help you, sir, but I am working now and cannot leave,” Nataya said.
“In that case, if you help me, I can pay you a reward. How about this?” Guo Xuyang said, taking out a gold brick.
This was a gold brick he had collected from the treasure cave.
Before coming to Africa, he had only smelted a portion of it for sale.
However, he did not dare to smelt it on a large scale, as he had no way to explain its origin.
Fortunately, he had kept the gold bricks; otherwise, he truly wouldn’t have known what to do today.
Nataya was stunned when she saw him take out such a gold brick and quickly nodded in agreement.
“I’ll tell a friend to cover for me,” Nataya said.
“Okay. Please be quick.”
Nataya picked up the room phone and dialed a number, speaking in a language Guo Xuyang didn’t understand for about two or three minutes.
“Alright, she agreed. What do you need my help with?”
“You need to be my translator. You cannot leave me until my companions are found. One gold brick per day. How about it?” Guo Xuyang said.
“Are you serious? Oh, God. This is incredible. I agree,” Nataya said with a look of shock.
