Xu Xing slightly opened her lips and smiled before she asked, “Silver Cloud, do you like white camellias too?”

“I don’t.”

“Why?” Xu Xing was baffled. If he did not like white camellias, why were there so many white camellias planted on the island? They bloomed beautifully, and one could tell that somebody had been tending to them.

“These camellias bring me many bad memories,” Silver Cloud said. He grew up amidst these white camellias, and his teenage blood once tainted these flowers.

He felt as though everything had happened yesterday.

He disliked white camellias, but somebody liked them.

“But the flowers are very pretty,” Xu Xing smiled sweetly and said. “Given how the flowers have bloomed so beautifully and that there’s nobody else on the island, they will definitely bloom if somebody could remember how beautifully they bloomed.”

As the wind blew, the fragrance of the flowers filled the island even more.

Silver Cloud was slightly taken aback and did not respond. He looked on the white camellias before him coldly, and there was that very slight pain in his heart. He did not know whether it was because of the past or because of Xu Xing’s kindness.

She very naturally held Silver Cloud’s arm and gently smiled. “How long would you want to stay on the island?”

Silver Cloud looked down at her arm which was holding him to see her incredibly beautiful slender fingers. “Would a few more days be good?” he asked as his harsh gaze softened.

Xu Xing did not know what he was up to. If she did, the gentle Xu Xing would hate him to the core. Knowing that somebody like him did not deserve Xu Xing’s gentleness, he coldly laughed in his heart.

While she was not guarding against him, he was scheming nonetheless.

“That’s good. I’ve never traveled for a long time, and I am worried that Daddy and Mommy would be worried about me. Is there a telephone on the island? I’d like to inform them,” Xu Xing said. She was more than happy to accompany Silver Cloud.

For many years, Silver Cloud was by her side when she was unhappy. He was often thinking of ways to cheer her up, but she had yet to do anything for him. Since she finally had this opportunity, she naturally did not want to turn it down. Besides, when she was with Silver Cloud, she was very carefree and could be herself.

“I’ve sent somebody to inform your parents, so don’t worry.”

“Really?”

“Did I lie to you?”

Xu Xing, at ease, nodded and happily agreed to spend a few more days on the island with him.

“Paradise Island is such a nice name for this place. It’s paradise indeed,” Xu Xing exclaimed. When she saw this beautiful scenery, she forgot all her worries and gently smiled. She suddenly saw Silver Cloud’s face change.

He leaped amidst the white camellias and grabbed two children about ten years old and coldly flung them onto the beach.

The handsome boy had brown hair, black eyes, and pale skin. He was adorable. The girl had brown hair, grey eyes, good features, and was very good-looking. The two of them called out in pain. They touched their buttocks that were hurting from the pain whilst looking at Silver Cloud in fear.

Silver Cloud frowned and was about to kill them when Xu Xing stopped him. She shielded the children nervously and asked, “Silver Cloud, what are you doing?”

“How could there be people on this land? I’ll kill them!”

The children stared hard at him. The girl, who was more rebellious, suddenly stood up with her arms at her waist and put on a fearless look. “Why can’t we stay here? We’ve been staying here for over ten years! Is that your business? Brother Ye is the owner of the island, not you!”

Silver Cloud glared at her and pushed Xu Xing away before he gripped the girl’s throat hard. Xu Xing, in shock, held his hand and shouted, “Silver Cloud, no! Don’t kill them! They are so adorable!”

“Silver Cloud, I don’t want you to kill them. If you do, you would go to jail.” Xu Xing, seeing how he was not moved, was angry and afraid. “Just let go of them, will you? You’re going to strangle that child dead!”

Silver Cloud was so strong and the little girl was almost out of breath, her face turning purple. The boy leaped forth and bit Silver Cloud’s hand. As he was facing off with Xu Xing, he did not notice the little boy who bit him so hard he bled. Silver Cloud, in his rage, threw the girl onto the boy. Both children fell onto the beach. The girl panted, and her pale neck had a few red marks.

Xu Xing heaved a sigh of relief but turned to see Silver Cloud looking at her with a complicated look. She, in her shock, held his arms gently. “Don’t kill anybody, okay?”

“Are you so afraid that I’ll go to jail?”

Xu Xing nodded. Silver Cloud had this sudden urge to laugh out.

This silly lass.

His bloodied hands had taken countless lives, so how could he be afraid of going to jail? But it was also good that somebody was worried about him, no?

“Are you okay?” Xu Xing knelt down. As the children backed away, a young couple hurried over and carried over their children. The man was still calm and asked them what they were doing on the island as it was a private island.

Xu Xing, not knowing how to answer, could only look at Silver Cloud.

Silver Cloud looked at them coldly and said, “That’s none of your business.”

Then, he left with Xu Xing toward a little mansion.

There were several small mansions on the island, and one of them was his childhood home. The family of four looked at them in a loss and turned back to send somebody to contact the surroundings. Ye Ningyuan must be informed.

Silver Cloud remained silent throughout. Xu Xing, knowing that he was not in a good mood, did not dare to say a word but just held his hand gently.

His hands were broad, warm, and calloused. It was different from her father’s as one could clearly feel the finger joints and the fingers were indeed dainty. She snuck a peek at his tense side profile and saw him tucking his lips. Silver Cloud was indeed in a bad mood.

She somewhat knew that they belonged to different worlds, but she did not seem to care.

Something else was on Silver Cloud’s mind.

He actually approached Xu Xing because she looked exactly like Xunuo.

However…

Their personalities were polar opposites; one was as cold as fire, and the other was as gentle as water; one was as beautiful as a rose, while the other was as demure as an orchid.

Xunuo’s hands were bloodied, but Xu Xing’s hands were clean.

Xu Xing…

“Silver Cloud, your hand is bleeding again,” Xu Xing exclaimed when she felt the warmth on his hands. She saw it and realized that he was bleeding. Xu Xing’s face changed as she held his hand up in a panic. Given how hard teeth were, along with how hard the boy bit him, there was a visible bite mark on Silver Cloud’s arm that bled profusely.

“It’s just a flesh wound, so all is fine,” Silver Cloud did not seem to be particularly worried about the injury. Xu Xing frowned and looked for a first aid kit in the house. As this was an old house, nobody visited it in years. Since they were often injured, first aid kits were aplenty.

They had little appropriate medication to use, and Xu Xing also did not know how to use them.

Silver Cloud looked at her and pointed to a bottle of medicine. “This one.”
