Leah thought that even if Han was unwilling to leave a normal person would want to recover their lost
memories.
As long as Han could tell Leah what he remembered, she might be able to successfully remind him
about his past.
However, after listening to her words, Han lowered his eyes and said gently, “I’m not interested.”
After he was finished with his sentence, he got up and walked into the house with the cut bamboo
strips in his arms.
Leah froze.
Why did she feel that Han was not interested in knowing what happened in the past at all?
Was she delusional?
“That’s alright.” Leah got up quickly and followed Han. “I’ll help you remember it if you don’t.” Said Leah
as she watched Han place the bamboo strips.
Han halted.
He glanced at Leah, then frowned.
“Lee.” At that moment, Maria came over and tugged at Han’s sleeve.
Han shifted his attention toward Maria and said gently, “What’s the matter?”
Maria said shyly, “My brother told me to head to the mountain to harvest some vegetables. Can you
come with me?”
The Adkins family had a decent background and they rarely go to the mountain to harvest vegetables.
The vegetables harvested in the wild tasted good. The villagers of Dragon Village often have them as
appetizers.
Kingsley suggested the idea to isolate Leah and Han.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe thought that an elegant lady like Leah would never head to the mountains.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Maria was done talking, Leah nodded and said, “Then I’ll come with you.”
Maria’s eyes widened in an instant and her face was written with rejection. “But the mountain path is
difficult to walk. I think you should stay here and wait for us to come back.”
“It’s fine, we’ll all go in separate ways. Don’t worry about me.” Leah shook her head.
Maria could not find any other excuse to reject her since Leah had already insisted on going.
However, Han remained silent and picked up the basket then walked outside.
“I’ll go too!” Shawn tugged onto Leah as his expression got gloomier.
The four of them went to the mountains.
Nobody said anything along the way.
Maria was incredibly shy while Han did not like to speak. On the other hand, Leah was thinking about
how she was going to break the awkward silence and Shawn was glaring at Han with disgust.
The path leading to the mountain was treacherous.
Dragon Village was located near the ocean and the land was muddy. Leah’s shoes were covered in
mud as they only walked halfway.
Leah’s pace slowed down.
On the other hand. Han was walking steadily as if he was walking on flat ground. He and Maria were
used to walking on mountain paths, so they were quite a distance away from Leah.
As soon as Leah looked up, she saw Han and Maria walking side by side.
She suddenly thought of that time when Han went all over the place just to find her in the mountains.
He must have felt more desperate than Leah when she was trapped in the landslide.
He had always been brave.
Leah sighed.
At that moment, Shawn took her hand and smiled at her. “I’ll help you out, Leah.”
Leah furrowed her eyebrows. She always felt some kind of barrier between her and Shawn.
She shook his hand off and said, “There’s no need, I can do it.”
As soon as she said it, Leah twisted her foot and fell to the ground.
Her ankle was swollen.
Leah wanted to cry but she could not.
Did she lose track of him?
She looked at Han’s back as he was getting further away from her. She then sighed heavily.
Han and Maria found a place to harvest some vegetables. That was the first time he was doing
something like this. He harvested a whole basket of vegetables despite not being familiar with them.
Han looked behind him.
However, the lady following behind them was nowhere to be seen.
“They don’t seem to be following us. That lady seemed pretty fragile.” Maria pouted and walked toward
Han.
Han stepped back subconsciously.
Maria’s eyes darkened upon seeing this.
After a pause, she continued to smile and asked Han. “What kind of relationship do you think they
have, Lee?”
Han placed the vegetables in his basket and ignored her.
Maria said that to him on purpose. “That man sticks to no one but her. I wouldn’t believe that the both of
them have nothing to do with each other even if I were a fool.”
Han carried the basket on his back and got up. “Let’s go back.”
“Wait for me, Lee. I can’t walk anymore.” Maria shouted behind him.
Han said to her expressionlessly, “It’s getting late, can you hurry up?”
“Then would you hold my hands?” Maria looked at him expectantly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHan looked at his own hands and said, “My hands are dirty.”
Maria shook her head. “I don’t mind.”
Han continued walking back as if he did not hear what she said.
Maria felt embarrassed, so she did not continue to ask.
After the both of them walked for a while, they ran into Shawn and Leah.
Leah was sitting beside a giant rock rubbing her ankle as Shawn squatted beside her and said
anxiously, “I’ll carry you back, Leah.”
“There’s no need.” Leah shook her head as she rejected Shawn’s help instinctively,
Han passed by and saw what was happening.
Han had no idea why Shawn was always hostile towards him as he always felt uncomfortable when he
was with Shawn.
“Han!” Leah called out to him when she saw them heading back.
Han halted but he did not look back.
Leah felt a little depressed and said, “I twisted my ankle, can you carry me downhill?”
It was not that he had not carried her before. She thought that if he carried her again, it might trigger
some of his memories.
“No.” Han refused her without hesitation.
Maria was jealous at first, but she could not help but feel a little relieved when she heard Han rejecting
Leah.
Leah was not a coquettish person and did not like to cause trouble for anyone.
Since Han refused to help her, she could not find any more excuses.
The atmosphere grew thick.
Han paused for two seconds and continued his way down the mountain.
Leah stared at his back and sighed helplessly.
However, she was not entirely sad as she did not have high hopes for Han in the first place.
