Paradise Island, two days later. Ye Ningyuan first went to an island around Paradise Island to observe the training conducted by the training department. A batch of trainees had passed the evaluation and could formally join the grassroots of the Top Terrorist Organization to hone their skills.

The training base had several training areas: operatives, killers, munitions, support, and elites. Each of the training areas had different methods. Killers would start off by carrying out missions. Intelligence agents primarily thrived on stealing intelligence, and elites would be placed into each sector of society. The Top Terrorist Organization permeated every sector of society as their own were at the cutting edge of each sector.

While Ye Ningyuan was not responsible for this work, he happened to be on Paradise Island. Since the base was not too far from Paradise Island, he conveniently stood in for Azure Dragon and visited the base to observe and evaluate the trainees. Once he confirmed that over ten of them would be entering the Top Terrorist Organization’s bases, Ye Ningyuan then drove his boat to Paradise Island.

The island was very peaceful and it was still covered in white camellias. Ye Ningyuan’s mood was, for some reason, lifted. As he carried his luggage to Xu Nuo’s mansion, he stepped in and realized that something was amiss. It was inhabited.

Aside from how someone would clean up the mansion and keep it squeaky clean, the problem lay with the still-warm tea on the table. Ye Ningyuan squinted slightly at how the study table was a tad messy. It seemed as though someone, in their panic, tried to rearrange everything to make it seem normal. He looked out of the mansion and did not notice anything amiss. It seemed that everything except the cup was tidied up. Who was it? Ye Ningyuan was baffled.

Phoebe’s family knew their limits. As this mansion was forbidden ground, nobody else would ever step into it. Even visitors to the island ought to have sought other accommodation instead. Ye Ningyuan put down his luggage as though nothing had happened. Ye Ningyuan knew that Phoebe would not touch his bed, and his extremely good memory caused him to realize that the folded blankets looked like a piece of square tofu. It was clearly not how it looked like when he left previously.

He frowned in displeasure. When he thought of how someone once slept on this bed, he felt queasy.

He turned and walked out of the mansion. The courtyard was extremely quiet. However he pondered, he had no idea who it was and thus went to Phoebe’s home and wanted to ask them about it. But Phoebe’s family was not present. As they were afraid he would suddenly visit Paradise Island when they were not present, they left a note on the table, stating that they were traveling. Ye Ningyuan secretly wondered. That means nobody was on the island then. Who was the bumbling idiot who ended up on the island and clumsily ended up sleeping in his room?

When he returned from Phoebe’s home, Ye Ningyuan put the food he had bought into the refrigerator. To his bewilderment, he discovered there were some fruits and fish in the refrigerator. He paused for a moment and then packed the refrigerator as though nothing had happened.

It seemed that this person spent more than a day on the island.

Why didn’t he see their clothes?

He suddenly opened the wardrobe only to find it completely empty and smiled. It seemed that the other person had run for the other mansion. That would do. As long as said person remained on the island, he would find that person.

Ye Ningyuan showered and changed into a set of casual wear before lying down under the umbrellas on the beach. Although the island was uninhabited, and given that there was an unknown visitor, Ye Ningyuan was not worried about his safety.

As night fell, Ye Ningyuan fell into a deep sleep.

Xu Nuo then heaved a sigh of relief. Only then did she dare to step out of Silver Cloud’s mansion and tiptoed away from the mansion zone and reached the beach. What was he doing on Paradise Island? She stayed here for two days and thought that Phoebe’s family had returned when she heard the sound of an approaching yacht. When she looked out, little did she expect to see him, and her mind went blank. In her fear, she only had time to pack up the clothes in her wardrobe and the skirt she had left out to dry in the courtyard before moving away the books on the study table. She simply had no time to pack up the rest, and he would certainly discover that somebody had once stayed here.

In that short time, she could only remove traces of Xu Nuo and not traces of somebody who was here. Xu Nuo sat under an umbrella and gently sighed. It’s time she ought to leave, no?

If she simply left like this, he would not discover her.

If he discovered it, what excuse should she use to explain her presence on the island?

He was not such an easy person to smoke.

Xu Nuo felt her body stiffen and her body did not react for a moment. She felt a chill in her heart. She was in a white shirt and black trousers instead of her usual red dress. If she did not look back, surely he wouldn’t know it was her.

As she thought so, she suddenly turned tail and ran. Ye Ningyuan would never allow her to escape. He was feigning he was asleep so that he could figure out who was on the island. He had expected some marooned traveler. Little did he expect that it was Xu Nuo, who had changed her clothes and was now sitting with her back facing him. However, he still very clearly recognized her. Before he even had time to think, he surged forth to her and blocked her way. Xu Nuo hit him, trying to break free of his grip. Ye Ningyuan pinned her hands behind her and forced her to look up at him.

He breathed heavily as he stared at her. Xu Nuo suddenly felt a weird heartache. She gritted her teeth and looked away. Ye Ningyuan let go of her. When she thought she was free, he instead hugged her extremely tightly.

He hugged her so tightly she could not breathe and felt stuffy. She was feeling even more aggrieved. She wanted to hug him but did not dare to do so. After going through once too many, they were back at where they first met and fell in love with each other.

‘Dear Stone, dear Stone… I am Nuo Nuo. I am back, but I do not dare to let you know that I’m back.’

She had liked him since young, and many years had passed since. Thirteen years ago, she innocently hoped that he would still be alive. If he were alive, she would be satisfied. Him loving her again made her even happier.

However, she could not forget about Hailan.

From start to end, she was a jinx, no? She was the accursed daughter of the Miao family. The people around her would leave one by one. If his younger sister did not have those special powers, she would have died instead.

Tears welled in her eyes. Grief gripped her heart and she was in immense discomfort.

Ye Ningyuan cupped her face and saw the tears in her eyes. He felt his heart suddenly soften. All his doubts became a desire as he looked down and kissed her lips…

As Xu Nuo closed her eyes, tears fell. She suddenly reached out, held him tightly, and crazily reciprocated his kisses. Her reciprocation made Ye Ningyuan even crazier. He held her and fell onto the beach before he rolled around and pinned her down. He backed away a little and wiped away her tears. Xu Nuo was never one to cry. He never imagined how she looked like when she cried and what would make her cry. To him, Xu Nuo was not one who would cry even if the world came to an end.

‘Xu Nuo, are you in pain too?
