The sound of the copper bell echoed in the wind. The dancing gods danced around the thousand-year-old Nirvana Sakura to pray for blessings.
" I didn't know that celebrities are so shy when they dance. You must have stomachache and need to pee, so you're looking for the toilet…" Doughty glanced at Lesley with disdain.
" You..." Lesley was furious.
However, Henako and Lola laughed heartlessly.
"Doughty, I'm not done with you…"
He thought about how he was forced to perform this strange dance and was ridiculed for no reason. Lesley had the urge to wave her hand at Crowe.
Seeing that something was wrong, Doughty darted to the front of the team like a monkey.
Lesley chased after him.
Her white kimono skirt fluttered in the wind as the flowers fell and the snow fell. Lesley waved her sleeves and danced with the dancing team in the sea of flowers until sunset. She smiled as she looked back at Hyunako. Her long black hair danced like butterflies. She seemed to have found the innocence that had disappeared in her dreams. The dead Su Ran had never laughed so loudly before.
On the other side of the altar, there was a shadow. A pair of malicious and cold eyes stared at the white figure in the snow, and the corners of his mouth curled up mysteriously.
The next morning, at the Mirror Creek Lake Resort, the sun shone through the thin clouds. Lesley was having breakfast and the local news was on TV when Lola ran in.
" What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry to tell me…" Lesley took a sip of milk.
"Lesley, sakurasnow's commercial is done..."
"What? What happened?" Lesley was stunned.
" It's that fellow, Doughty. When we were performing the divine dance yesterday, he asked the film crew to film it from a place we couldn't see. Then, he took it to edit it…"
"Ah?" Lesley was dumbfounded. She never expected that sakura would be so shocked.
Snow's commercial had been shot without her knowledge. It seemed that yesterday was all planned by that freak, Doughty. No wonder he was so eager to perform the divine dance.
What exactly was the content of this advertisement? What document? What theme? She couldn't even guess.
"In that case, he was the one who arranged for Henako and Kingstown to be here?”
" Yes, he had arranged for these two children. Otherwise, Henako wouldn't have dragged you to watch the Flower God Festival for no reason…"
"Aren't the siblings orphans?”
Lola shook her head." Those two children were indeed orphans who lost their parents not long ago. They were taken in by the Mirror Creek Lake Orphanage. This morning, the orphanage's director even called me to express his gratitude for what happened yesterday..." Lola replied.
Lesley let out a long sigh." I really like those two children. I really don't want them to be orphans…"
Lola smiled." You don't have to worry about that. Someone took the siblings away this morning-"
"They were adopted?"
" Yes, Henako also hopes that you can visit her in her new home in the future, but..." Lola sighed helplessly." Your schedule is very full. According to the arrangement, you can only stay in Japan for four days, and you will return to China the day after tomorrow..."
" Let's go to Funako's new home before we go back. Say goodbye to the siblings. Do you know where they live now?”asked Lesley.
" I don't know. I thought you wouldn't go, so I didn't ask for the address. But I gave your phone number to Henako..." Lola replied.
Lesley nodded." I hope she can call me before I return to China this time..."
At this moment, the local news on the television was reporting a car accident…
"Due to the high tourist season, the traffic is crowded and car accidents are frequent. Last night, a sand truck on the Jingxi Lake highway overturned due to overload. The hundreds of tons of sand buried a sports car nearby…"
" When the reporters arrived, the entire car had been crushed by hundreds of tons of yellow sand. The owner died on the spot. Currently, according to the passport on the deceased, the police confirmed that the identity of the owner is Chen Linhao, the executive director of the internationally renowned enterprise group, LK..."
The dead? Chen Linhao!
As if struck by lightning, Lesley's face instantly turned pale.
" Wow, this Chen Linhao died too tragically…" Lola looked at the car being crushed on the television and sighed." The car was crushed like this. He must have been turned into meat paste…"
Lesley stared blankly at the television. Her lips were purple and trembling. The blood in the yellow sand was so eerie that it made one's hair stand on end. Her beautiful eyes were pierced by the red blood, and they were bloodshot.
Die without an intact corpse!
She recalled what she had said to Han Shaoyuan.
Demons…
Her lower jaw trembled as she knocked on the ground. Her entire body was so cold that there was no warmth at all.
" Lesley... Lesley..." Lola noticed that Lesley's expression was different and called her twice.
Lesley couldn't hear anything. Her back was stiff as she sat in front of the television, motionless.
How many times had she wished for Chen Linhao to die? However, when Chen Linhao was reduced to mincemeat in the car accident, she felt fear, panic, and even a little guilty. She had never thought that Han Shaoyuan would really kill Chen Linhao, let alone use such a cruel method.
" Lesley, what happened..." Lola became nervous." Say something..."
"Demons…"
Her tongue was trembling as she mumbled two words.
At this moment, the phone on the table rang…
Lesley turned around in a daze and stared at the vibrating phone on the table. She didn't dare to answer or move.
" Lesley, your phone..." Lola reminded him.
Lesley's face was as pale as a piece of paper and she didn't say a word.
Seeing that Lesley wasn't picking up the phone, Lola walked over and picked up the phone, pressing the speaker button.
" Tonight at seven o'clock-Luo Xue City…"
It was Liu Chuanyun's voice.
Lesley was terrified. She didn't expect it to be so fast.
According to the agreement, she would be Han Shaoyuan's lover for the rest of her life…
Go? Or not?
If she went, she knew what would welcome her. There were too many scenes in the host's memory.
Not going…
She couldn't imagine the consequences…
"Sister…"
After Liu Chuanyun's cold voice, it was actually Funako's sweet voice.
" Sister, the uncle in Luo Xue City adopted me and brother. We're in Luo Xue City. Bai Nako's new home is so big and beautiful…"
A bolt from the blue!
Han Shaoyuan was the one who adopted Henako and Kingstown!
What was he trying to do!
Lesley was even more terrified…
"Sister, say something. Are you coming tonight?”
On the other end of the phone, Hyunako asked in a tender voice.
His trembling hands were pale as he took the phone from Lola's hands…
Go? Or not?
If he didn't go…
What would happen to Hyunako and Kingstown?
He had already killed Chen Linhao…
Would he do the same to these two children?
She didn't dare to think further…
Her lips and teeth trembled as she struggled to form a sentence with each word." Sister-will go…"
" That's great. Hyunako will be waiting for you here…"
The call ended…
Lesley was so stunned that she almost couldn't breathe.
Lola looked at Lesley in surprise. In the past five years, the Lesley in front of her had changed too much. She used to suck up to Han Shaoyuan so much that she dreamed of becoming his woman every day. However, when Lesley received an invitation, she would not be overjoyed. Instead, she would always look very pained. She could not understand.
The night enveloped Luo Xue City. The bright moonlight shone on the lake, and the sparkling water reflected the night sky like stars. The hundred lanterns on the eaves were already lit up, and the red glow made the city look even more ethereal, beautiful beyond compare.
Walking into Luo Xue City alone, Lesley's heart felt like it was weighed down by a piece of Silinke. It was extremely heavy.
In the spacious hall, Han Shaoyuan was already sitting on a soft chair under a huge screen with a painting of peonies. Half of his body was buried in the chair, and a cigar was lit in his right hand. In front of him was a long black European-style dining table. A row of silver candlesticks inlaid with crystals were arranged neatly. The candlelight was about to fall in the shadows, illuminating the hall with a warm color.
Lesley was wearing a rose-red silk dress with a few white flowers on her chest. Her hair was tied up, and her jade-like face was charming and delicate under the candlelight. She sat down at one end of the dining table and looked into Han Shaoyuan's eyes.
The hands of the golden grandfather clock moved with a clattering sound, echoing in the vast hall. The decoration was a combination of Chinese and Western. As for how big the entire Luo Xue City was, Lesley was unable to understand it. She recalled that the place she passed by the day before yesterday was just a small corner of Luo Xue City.
The butler led the two children in.
"Sister…"
Hyunako ran over happily. She was wearing a blue dress and was jumping around.
Kingstown was wearing a suit and tie as he followed behind Henako.
"Everyone is here. Butler, let's eat…"
Han Shaoyuan's voice was cold as he gestured at the butler.
The servants of Luo Xue City gathered and served the dishes one by one.
Lesley looked at the table full of dishes and the candlelight dinner. She glanced at Han Shaoyuan again. His expressionless and cold face was still unfathomable.
What did he want? He actually wanted everyone to eat together? She felt even more uneasy.
Ayunako sat down next to Lesley, while Kingstown sat opposite her.
" Sis, this uncle is really good to me and my brother…" Funako's small, moist face glistened under the candlelight." Look, is the new dress beautiful?"”She grabbed the hem of her lace dress.
" Very beautiful…" Lesley forced a smile.
Kingstown, who was sitting opposite him, had already started eating quietly.
The butler walked over and poured hot water into the silver cups in front of everyone.
The atmosphere was unusually strange, and the sound of knives and forks could be heard. The two children didn't notice anything. Henako ate happily beside Lesley.
"Ah…"
She accidentally spilled the hot water in the silver cup on her body, and her tender arm instantly turned red.
"Hurry up and get the first aid kit…"
Lesley hurriedly turned to the side and gently wiped her arm with a wet towel, but blisters still appeared on the red area.
Henako cried in pain.
" Henako, don't cry..." Lesley wiped Henako's tears.
Han Shaoyuan sat in his original position and watched coldly. Suddenly, he ordered the butler," Take the children upstairs to the room…"
" Yes..." The butler carried Henako, and Kingstown followed him upstairs. Lesley also wanted to follow him upstairs to take a look, but when she passed by Han Shaoyuan, Han Shaoyuan suddenly grabbed her wrist…
With a sudden burst of force, her body suddenly tilted and she lost her balance, falling into Han Shaoyuan's arms…
