Chapter 837 - Untitled

All of them ate dinner with a heavy heart and none of them had the mood to eat. Ye Ningyuan locked himself up in Xu Nuo’s mansion ever since he got the ring. He refused to go out and did not even appear during dinner time.

Xu Xing was very worried. There was a special passageway from Silver Cloud’s room to Xu Nuo’s mansion, and it was not far away. She had walked a few times and wanted to go and persuade Ye Ningyuan to eat some food, but he did not reply.

An Xunuo sat at the railings outside the window and leaned against it. She looked at Paradise Island’s beautiful sunset. Paradise Island, Paradise Island, how nice would it be if she could forget her problems. Silver Cloud was sitting in the courtyard and was silent too. The island was so silent that it was scary. There was no trace of sound other than the sound of the waves. The waves were getting higher and higher as if there was a rising tide. It started to get chilly on the island.

An Xunuo closed her eyes and felt a slight headache. Ever since she came to Paradise Island, her head felt slightly painful. It was as if something was drilled into her brain and kept lingering, making her feel vexed.

She did not have the time to care about Ye Ningyuan.

Xu Xing walked over and said, “Ophelia, could you go and ask Ningyuan to come and eat dinner?”

She had no other method and An Xunuo might be the only one that could make Ye Ningyuan speak. Xu Xing was not sad as she only wanted him to be good. Who persuaded him did not matter.

An Xunuo said, “It doesn’t matter whoever said it if he doesn’t wake up from it.”

Ye Ningyuan had a crazy persistence toward that dead person. It was his taboo and nobody could touch it. Even Xu Xing could not help him, so how could she? An Xunuo smiled coldly, closed her eyes, and did not look at Xu Xing.

“He will listen to you,” Xu Xing said.

An Xunuo turned her head sideways to look at Xu Xing before turning to look at Silver Cloud who was far away. She ignored Xu Xing’s question and asked her, “Are you close to Silver Cloud?”

Xu Xing nodded, her eyes looking at Silver Cloud and she felt sour in her heart. She did not know if it was because of the lighting, but he looked very lonely as if nobody could cure his loneliness.

This island was the wound in their hearts.

It was also a place that they missed. Be it Ye Ningyuan or Silver Cloud, they both excluded Xu Xing out of this island and this made her slightly sad. She had a forced smile. “Actually, he’s a nice person.”

She could guess the relationship between An Xunuo and Silver Cloud, and their relationship didn’t seem to be good. Xu Xing was puzzled. Since An Xunuo looked like her sister, then why did Silver Cloud treat her badly? This was not logical.

But, she did not ask them and subconsciously wanted to explain for Silver Cloud. Although she did not like An Xunuo, she did not want people to hate Silver Cloud.

“It has nothing to do with me,” An Xunuo said. An Xunuo and Silver Cloud were special and nice people to Xu Xing, but they were not so for An Xunuo. Whether a person was nice or not was dependent on who they were with. Just like herself, she was a nice family member to Michael and Harry, but not so to others.

Xu Xing followed An Xunuo and sat at one side, leaning against the pillar. She asked hesitantly, “Do you like Ningyuan?”

She never liked An Xunuo since young. Other than because An Xunuo snatched away her mommy, daddy, and the attention on her, she also knew from Ye Ningyuan that An Xunuo was similar to Xu Nuo. She disliked An Xunuo a lot and would always be cold and expressionless whenever she met An Xunuo. But, her mommy liked An Xunuo a lot and Xu Xing disliked that.

It seemed a little inappropriate for asking this.

Although they were godsisters, their relationship was as good as strangers. They were only a little closer than being strangers.

“Is this question important?” An Xunuo asked back and Xu Xing was silent and did not know how to reply. An Xunuo turned her head and said, “I don’t like Ye Ningyuan.”

She didn’t know if she said this to Xu Xing or to herself. She did not know if she liked him or not either. This was the first time someone had asked her this and she smiled in her heart. Did she still have any feelings? She had covered her heart in ice and was colder than anyone else, so how would she like anyone? Moreover, why would she like a man that forever loved another woman? An Xunuo was still not so blinded by love.

Xu Xing looked at her for a while and did not say anything. She looked down.

An Xunuo felt stuffy and walked outside. Xu Xing asked, “Where are you going?”

“Stroll!” she said and walked out of the mansion. The white camellias on the island were very pretty and they were everywhere. She liked them a lot, and not many people knew that she liked camellias too. She planted a variety of camellias in her house. Maybe it was the weather, but they did not bloom as well as the camellias here. The white camellias on Paradise Island looked like a vast field of white flowers under the dim lights.

She did not know why, but she was familiar with the environment on the island. The camellias were similar to the camellias a decade ago. The buildings also looked similar and it was easy for people to get lost here. Even Phoebe would sometimes get lost in the field of camellias. But, An Xunuo felt relaxed walking here. She looked calm and her red dress made her look very bright in the middle of the camellia field.

Silver Cloud, who was looking at her from a distance, frowned. He had an eerie feeling in his heart. He looked at An Xunuo walking around the camellia field and standing in the middle of the flowers. Her hair and fire-like dress seemed like the girl many years ago, walking around the field with her silver whip. He had an illusion that Xu Nuo had come back.

“What are you looking at?” Xu Xing followed his gaze and looked over. She saw An Xunuo and was startled and she became quiet.

“Have you known Xunuo since young?”

“Yes, since young.”

Silver Cloud did not ask anything.

An Xunuo walked past the white camellia and went to the back of the mountain. She accidentally walked to a valley that seemed like a prison. The three sides of the valley were mountains and cliffs filled with moss. It was a little desolate here and the only empty space had a big training ground with a row of old weapons. The back mountain was not affected during the war at Paradise Island, so everything here was the same as in the past.

An Xunuo clenched her fists tightly as some blurry images flashed past her mind. There were many wolves living in the valley and all of them gave off faint green light.

She suddenly felt pain and the blurry images in her mind became clear. The valley in front of her eyes seemed to become a real image. A few teenagers were thrown into the pack of wolves and the wolves seemed to have met some delicacies and pounced on them…

That image was very bloody.
