章節 54: 1.2.17: Beach
The next morning, Xiao Yunhua woke up in her new hotel room.
Her mind felt calm and she felt surprisingly relaxed, lucky enough to be able to get away from all the problems that the system forced her to endure through.
Xiao Yunhua breezed through a warm shower and rummaged through her luggage and found a yellow, casual sundress and a pair of simple sandals to pair with.
Her hair was styled into a long French braid that dangled at her side. With her small side bag containing sunscreen and her phone as well as other miscellaneous objects, Xiao Yunhua was ready to go.
She had worn a white swimsuit underneath in case she decided to go swimming later.
She opened her room door, only to bump into someone coming out from the opposite room's direction.
"My apologies—" Xiao Yunhua froze and so did the person that she bumped into.
Her honey-colored eyes met with a pair of kind, warm dark eyes belonging to someone very familiar. In fact, the latest name on her contact list on her phone.
"Qiang Yue!?" Xiao Yunhua was going to ask him what he was doing there but realized that he was probably there for a vacation like her.
After all, despite being December, the island's warm weather and overall mood felt like a ideal summer vacation place. But to be in the same island, in the same hotel... this coincidence was too much!
"Miss Xiahu—" Qiang Yue paused and cleared his throat, "I mean, Yunhua, how have you been?"
"Fine, I guess, it hasn't been that long since I've seen you. But either way, I guess fate has brought us together again."
Xiao Yunhua smiled at the handsome man, ushering him to follow her.
"You know, I'm sure that the beaches are enjoyable here. Do you wish to see them together? I had only gotten here last night, so I'm not too familiar with the island."
Qiang Yue wanted to tell her that he meant to rest because he had arrived only that morning, but seeing her joyful mood, he couldn't find it in himself to ruin her happiness.
Instead, he lied and told her that he had arrived the night before as well.
Once again, for such a coincidence, Xiao Yunhua was stunned, but she was happy. This meant that she could get her target while on her vacation.
Even though she originally took a vacation to get away from the system and its demands, she didn't mind for Qiang Yue to be here. The man's gentle demeanor made her feel calm, unlike with Zhou Feng.
Thinking of Zhou Feng's name, Xiao Yunhua frowned. She hadn't seen the man in months...
Remembering his final actions, she clenched her fists. She wasn't saintly enough to forgive him based on not seeing him for a few months. In fact, she still desired to get revenge on the Zhou family, especially for Han Mi.
No matter what target, her agenda was always to avenge her grandmother. If she didn't, then Han Mi's sacrifices for Xiao Yunhua's happiness would be wasted.
The only woman deserved to live the afterlife in peace, especially with the idea that Zhou Eldress was to suffer the consequences of her actions.
The duo walked side by side together and left the hotel.
Once outside, they noticed the sun shining and people spread everywhere on the beach. Qiang Yue and Xiao Yunhua wandered until they found an empty area.
Xiao Yunhua didn't bother to keep any image and immediately sat on the sand, taking off her sandals.
Her exuberant attitude was completely unlike her depressed self a few weeks back which Qiang Yue immediately noticed.
But to see his former patient smiling so carefree, he was relieved.
Nothing was more satisfying to Qiang Yue than seeing someone he had treated living in good health.
