The night came unknowingly. Now that Jaime was already gone, there was no one else around who was keeping an eye on the old house. Sienna sneaked into the old house silently without any hesitation under the cover of the night.She did not manage to rummage through the old house carefully since she came here in a hurry the last time.This time, Sienna went directly to the room on the second floor and looked around.She still had no clue after looking around. Sienna could not help but exhale. The layout of the old house was almost the same as what she remembered. All the furnishings had not been changed. It was just that her grandmother used to put a picture of her as a child on the table, but the picture was gone now. As such, it should have been put away a long time ago. Sienna glanced around casually and was suddenly stunned. That’s right.Where was her photo? Sienna got up to look around. She found that photos of her grandparents were still there, but the photo of her
Sienna raised her brows. “You still believe in this?”“What’s wrong with trying?” Harry said. A red cloth suddenly appeared in his hand out of nowhere. He handed it to Sienna and said slowly, “There’s a pen there.”Following his line of sight, Sienna saw that there was not only a pen but also a small square table under the ancient tree. It must have been specifically placed here by the local villagers who were used to coming here to make wishes and pray for blessings. Sienna shook her head and said indifferently, “I’m not interested in this.”If making a wish was really useful, then why did no one hear her greatest desires when she supplicated herself to the sky so many times back then?Harry chuckled lightly, then picked up the pen and slowly began to write on the red cloth. Sienna was a little curious, and she could not help but lean over to take a peek.Unexpectedly, Harry immediately used his hand to cover it up. “No peeking.”“Petty.”Sienna simply turned around, walked
Sienna blinked and stuffed the red cloth back into Harry’s hand without hesitation. “I better not look at it then.”She did not want to fall into his trap just because of a moment of curiosity!Harry chuckled lightly and said, “Let’s go.”Both of them walked along the path that they came from.The moonlight was like a veil that was shrouding this small mountain village.Sienna was bored, and she was nonchalantly admiring the surrounding scenery. Suddenly, she saw Harry pointing at a certain location, and the man playfully teased her in his low and pleasant voice as he asked, “Nene, do you think that little thing looks like you?”“What?”Sienna looked in the direction that Harry was pointing and saw two beautiful and cute big white swans standing by the corner of the wall. The movements of these two big white swans were almost synchronized, and their feathers were white and spotless. The swans’ slender necks were slightly bent, and as Harry and Sienna stared at them, the two bi
Harry, who was a wall away, turned off the lights and quietly looked at the ceiling.His eyes were still sharp and bright in the darkness, and they also carried a hint of coldness and sternness with them. He remembered that he had exposed the scars on his body in front of Sienna when she administered acupuncture during the day. At that time, he asked her if she was afraid. However, the young girl then replied to him in a firm and unmistakably natural tone as she stated, ‘There’s nothing to be afraid of.’But Nene, if you knew where my scars came from, you would probably think of me as the chief of all evil, just like everyone else.Harry closed his eyes. Those bloody fights seemed like a dream in retrospect. They had been long gone for many years, but what never disappeared was the invisible black mire behind him.The gravitational force inside was pulling him in little by little.One day, he would be pulled and dragged, and then trapped until his demise…Harry turned sideway
Master?Kai, who was driving in front, was startled.If he guessed correctly, Dr. Watte should be referring to his young mistress as his master.Dr. Watte did mention that he wanted to ask Sienna to take him as his apprentice the last time. However, at that time, Kai thought that Dr. Watte was just exaggerating when he said that. He did not expect that Dr. Watte would really refer to Sienna as his master!Kai was surprised, but he did not dare to say anything.Sienna got out of the car, glanced around, and was about to turn around and ask Harry to wait in the car. However, before she could say anything, she saw that Harry had already gotten out of the car, and it seemed that he was already prepared to go with her.Sienna raised her brows and said nothing.Dr. Watte came here yesterday, so he knew where the old lady who needed treatment lived. As such, he walked in front and led the way as he said, “The old lady is said to be insane now. I don’t know if she’s emotionally stable,
Sienna finally reacted this time.She looked at Harry in confusion and asked, “What are you doing?”Having said that, she tried to take her hand back, but he was holding tightly onto her. She could not break free at all.Harry asked, “Why are you unhappy?”His voice was as soft and light as a feather, but Sienna was startled for a moment. She did not expect that he would be able to see the slightest change in her emotions. Sienna lowered her eyes and said lightly, “I just heard a story that was a little hard to bear.”This answer was a half-truth because… she was the person telling the story.In the half an hour that she entered the house, she told the old lady a little about her son’s experiences and his honorable war achievements. The old lady was holding onto her son’s photo as she listened attentively to Sienna. When she learned that her son had died in battle, the old lady who had been suppressing her emotions for many years was surprisingly calm, and she managed to restra
“I… I just slightly renovated the house.”'Renovation? That's a minor issue.' Without giving it any thought, Sienna responded casually, “It is our home. You can decorate it however you like.” Sienna hung up the phone after that.Madam Garcia suddenly shouted from downstairs, “Miss Sienna, lunch is ready!”“I’m coming.” Sienna put away her laptop and mobile phone before she walked downstairs unhurriedly. She sunbathed in the yard after lunch.Dr. Watte sat on the small bench beside Sienna and sighed, “Master, shall we leave by tomorrow? We have nothing to do here, and I feel uneasy now.”Sienna glanced at him and asked half-smilingly, “How many patients have you seen at the simple prefabricated house?”“Zero.” Dr. Watte sat on the small bench beside Sienna and sighed, “No one has stepped into that house from day one.”The banner of the free clinic placed before the prefabricated house was pretty eye-catching, but the villagers of Adak had never set foot there. It was primarily du
Over the next few days, Sienna and Dr. Watte had been occupied in the free clinic.Among the villagers who visited the doctor, some had minor illnesses such as headaches and fever; while others had more serious conditions like rheumatism, where they had difficulty moving around. There was also a heavily pregnant lady that had come for consultation.Initially, they had put the doctors to the test, but they had gained complete faith in their ability later.A couple who visited the doctor had twins who were suffering from a rare disease. The parents didn’t have much hope at first, but Sienna assured them that the twins could be cured. She stayed up for two straight nights and healed the twins.From that day onward, Sienna’s reputation became widespread throughout Adak. The locals came here to seek consultation for free. Later, they took the initiative to send food to the doctors.“Miracle Doctor, I grew these lemons in my yard, and they taste very good. I have some for you right here
The wind blew, and there were wrinkles in the lake.Her heart was also in turmoil.Sienna looked away. Of course, she did not really mean to leave, not to mention, the things that she brought with her had not come in handy yet.Sienna broke away from Harry’s grip, then walked to the group of rocks where she had just sat down and picked up a bag on the ground which contained more than a dozen hand-folded paper cranes.There was a small candle on top of the paper cranes, and a paper-folded disc was placed underneath. The candles could be lit and then placed in the water. Sienna took out a lighter, lit a few, then put them in the water. After that, she looked at Harry, raised her brows, and said, “Here, want to do it together?”Harry sat down beside her. He looked at the delicate paper crane in his hand, then thought for a moment and asked, “Did you fold all these?” “Yes.” Sienna looked at the faint candlelight on the water and said slowly, “When I was young at about the age of e
Eagor was immediately excited. It flew twice around Sienna before returning to its nest.By a lake, a few kilometers away from Lang Garden.Harry’s eyelashes were half drooping under the moonlight. His thick eyelashes cast a layer of shadow on his eyelids, and his handsome face looked extremely secretive. It seemed as if he was covered with a layer of fog which was light and stunning, but it was impossible to see him clearly. Sienna sat down next to him.This was a group of rocks, which was cold and uncomfortable.But that was not the point. The point was that she was here.A trace of surprise flashed across Harry’s eyes, and there was also a certain emotion on his usually calm and unperturbed face as he asked, “Why are you here?” Sienna looked at the lake in front of her, raised her eyes, and said, “I can’t let you enjoy such beautiful scenery alone.”Under the moonlight, there were layers of mountains and rivers in front of them, and the neatly planted pines and cypresses s
Sienna paused for a moment and subconsciously replied, “Aren’t we going to Scott Mansion to see Lady Scott tomorrow?” “We are going to Scott Mansion to see my grandmother tomorrow. Just accompany me tonight, okay?”The corners of Harry’s mouth curled into a shallow arc, and the clear aura around his body dispersed. He was extremely gentle. “Okay?”Sienna keenly felt that Harry’s speech at the moment was different from usual, but she could not tell what the difference was. After a brief moment of hesitation, she declined, “It’s already very late. Let’s rest early.”“Okay.”Harry got up. He was still smiling as he said, “Goodnight, then.”He then left.The dining room instantly became quiet, and Harry’s invisible charming aura gradually dissipated. The crystal lamp above Sienna’s head did not move and was emitting a warm glow.Sienna wiped her mouth, then got up and left the dining room.When she was about to go upstairs to her room to rest, she inadvertently heard someone
‘At this time, an elderly pretty boy lost the light in his eyes.’‘The person who left the comment above should compensate me! You caused me to drop my mask because I laughed!’When the production team saw that the effect was so good, they decided to let Keegan move around in the virtual world longer before letting him down.It so happened that the live broadcast time was too short, and the viewers were reluctant to leave the live broadcast room because of the high popularity and the heated discussions. As such, they simply made Keegan perform a 360-degree spin!…When Sienna returned to Lang Garden, she received the income from this live broadcast. With Harry’s crazy reward and the accumulation of countless gift rewards that she had received from hundreds of millions of viewers, Sienna made quite a considerable income.In addition, this live broadcast was a great success. It had great popularity, and the Universal Atrium would also get a huge share of the profit.Sienna was sat
Quentin was stunned for a moment. He could not bear it, and he immediately stepped forward and carried Clara, then walked out without saying a word.After he left, Christina, who had been watching this scene, sneered and said, “Pfft, she’s really good at putting on an act. Clara is really a master when it comes to manipulating men.”The live recording stopped here.This was probably the shortest episode of the live broadcast of the large-scale reality variety program, Ninja Survival, and it was probably the most thought-provoking episode.Quentin brought Clara to the hospital.Hank went home with lingering fears.The other guests who also ‘died’ also dispersed in groups of twos and threes. Jonas tried to speak to Sienna, but Sienna ignored him several times. In the end, he could only bow his head and leave in frustration. The live broadcast this time was extremely popular, and many media and reporters were gathered at the entrance of the Universal Atrium.They flocked up fra
Jonas suddenly came to his senses. He let go of Clara’s hand and ran wildly in the direction of the mountain and forest!He would only be facing death if he were to go there in the face of such raging flames. It was even more likely that he would not be able to find Sienna anywhere.But he went anyway.Hank, who was on the beach, had sobered up and was witnessing everything that had just happened. When he looked at Jonas’s back, he mocked, “At least, he still has a conscience.”But at this moment, a person fell down from the mountain wall.She was covered in blood and bruises. It was Sienna.Jonas glanced at her inadvertently. The moment he saw Sienna, he stopped in time, ran over, and asked, “Sienna, how did you get hurt so badly?” Sienna pointed at the high mountain wall and said indifferently, “It’s good enough that I survived.” Hank gulped and made a bold assumption, “Sienna, you… you didn’t rock-climb all the way down, did you?”“Yes.” Sienna nodded lightly. When Ha
In Clara’s eyes, as long as she cried and acted coquettishly, everything would be over just like that.It was just like every other time in the past. However, what she did not expect was that Jonas, who was watching her cry, was indifferent as he asked her a question in a tone that was so calm that it seemed almost unfamiliar to her. “Clara, did you really take care of me?”“…” Clara’s face was instantly pale. When Jonas was unconscious, she was busy being intimate with Quentin in order to enhance and strengthen her relationship with him.Clara said that she took care of him, but in fact, she had only been sitting next to him. Moreover, she was not the first to find out that he was down with a high fever. “Jonas…”Clara wanted to explain, but Jonas interrupted her indifferently, “Clara, I was still conscious even when I was unconscious.”Because he was conscious, he knew of Clara’s indifference and contempt for him; because he was conscious, he knew that Clara and Quentin
Christina was already waiting for him. When she saw that Quentin had opened his eyes, she walked forward with a smile and described everything that happened when he was unconscious to him in great detail.Christina was afraid that Quentin would not believe her, so she deliberately borrowed the staff’s cell phone to view the archive of each time period of the live broadcast. “Quentin, come here and take a look.”…In the virtual world, not long after Jonas had carried Hank ashore, he heard a second explosion in the forest!He suddenly raised his head and looked toward the cliff. His heartbeat quickened in an instant, and his mind even went blank.He escaped, but what about Sienna?There was only one parachute cloth. He landed successfully with Hank, but what about Sienna?Jonas raised his head, and his eyes suddenly flushed red in an instant. He originally thought that Sienna was urging him to jump down because she wanted to do an experiment. As such, he never thought that he
‘It is a fact that Clara didn’t hesitate to push Jonas from behind so that she could escape when they encountered the red fire ants before. Is this also considered right? Doesn’t this give you chills or make you feel scared? ‘Let me ask you, what will you feel when you’re facing the person that you’re desperately trying to protect and she suddenly stretches out her hands to push you to your death? Can you still empathize with her then? Can you still praise her for being kind? I’m sorry, but I can’t do that.’When the super fan was done speaking, the live broadcast room was even more deadly silent.However, Clara did not know anything about this.When she was desperately running forward, the only thoughts in her mind were to escape as soon as possible, find rescue as soon as possible, and then go back alive…Although she liked Quentin and also wanted to marry into the Kane family and become the veritable young mistress of the Kane family, the premise was that she would have to sur
