Chapter 65

Chapter 65 It Felt Familiar To Her

Xandria, who was editing pictures on her phone, immediately looked up when she heard the voice. Herexpression darkened immediately when she saw Raymond’s face and the people beside him.

“Why are you here?”

She could not help scolding in her heart, “What bad luck!”

Raymond walked to the table next to her and sat down. “What? You can come here but we can’t? Doyou own this land?”

Xandria frowned and glared at Raymond. There was no reply from her. Although she did not own theland, it felt strange to meet Raymond and Christopher here.

Since the last time they had a deal, Christopher was now a stranger to Yuliana. Although she wasstunned at first to meet him here so suddenly, she soon returned to normal.

Meanwhile, Christopher did not look at Yuliana. He pulled out a chair and leaned his head on it as hesat with his eyes closed to rest.

They were worried about the traffic jam on the road, so they went out before dawn. Nevertheless, therewas still a traffic jam in the middle of their trip. It was already afternoon when they reached the ancienttown. After settling down in their lodging, they found a place to eat outside. Following that, they weregoing to replace a place to have coffee and get some sunlight.

Who would know that this was the only café in the ancient town with an open-air layout for them to getsome sunlight?

It was a coincidence to meet Xandria and Yuliana.

Christopher and Raymond’s group consisted of men and women. There were about seven to eight ofthem. They took three tables. After ordering coffee from the menu, Raymond looked at Christopher. Hedid not know if the latter was asleep or not. Then, he turned to look at Yuliana.

“Ms. Livingstone.”

Hearing that Raymond called her, Yuliana turhed around politely. “Yes, Mr. Quinn?”

Raymond smiled and said, “Well, I have a niece who’s in elementary school too. I heard from herparents that she studies hard. Her family hired a tutor from a famous school as well, but I don’t knowwhy her academic performance is not improving. Do you know why, Ms. Livingstone?”

Yuliana thought for a few seconds before replying, “There may be many reasons. It may be that thechild is forced to study so much that she got tired of learning, or it may be that the learning method iswrong.” After hearing this, Raymond wanted to ask more, but Yuliana stopped him with her followingresponse.

“I personally suggest that the parents communicate with their children’s teachers to know the actualreason. After all, the teachers and parents know the children’s learning best.”

Raymond smiled politely. “Okay, thank you, Ms. Livingstone.”

Yuliana turned around and said to Xandria, “I’m a little tired, Xani. Why don’t we go back first?” Xandriaglanced at Yuliana and then in the direction of Christopher. She hurriedly said, “Oh, okay.”

They both left the café after they paid the bill.

Xandria stole a glance at Yuliana to see the latter looking uncomfortable. She thought it was becauseof the encounter with Christopher. “Yuliana, we’ll go back to Juxshire if you don’t want to see them.”

Yuliana said, “It’s not that I don’t want to see them. I just feel a little uncomfortable and wanted to goback to the homestay for a rest.”

She already felt cold not long after sitting at the café. Perhaps it was because she had sweated somuch earlier. She was already a little uncomfortable in the morning. The reason for her wanting to goback was that she was afraid that her cold might worsen. It was not because of Christopher and theothers.

Hearing what she said, Xandria was a little nervous. “Where do you feel uncomfortable?”

Yuliana was afraid that Xandria would be worried. She smiled, “Don’t worry, I’m just a little tired.”Xandria said, “You can have a good rest when we return.”

Yuliana nodded.

After returning to the homestay, Yuliana went to bed and rested. Xandria stayed in the room for a whilebefore answering a phone call. She gave Yuliana a sign and went out.

Yuliana was in a daze after her sleep. She suddenly woke up when she felt that she could not breathe.

Her nose was blocked, and she could not breathe when lying down. She sat up slowly and almost felldown due to dizziness. Fortunately, her arms held onto the bed for support in time.

She pinched her nose and took a few hard breaths. Finally, she felt better.

However, the lights in the room were not turned on, and only the faint moonlight came through thewindow. In a daze, Yuliana wanted to replace the switch to turn on the lights, but she accidentally hitsomething. That item. fell to the ground with a loud thud.

Yuliana was startled and immediately withdrew her hand.

At that time, she was not very conscious, not to mention that the room was dark. The ancient town wasdifferent from the city, where there were lights everywhere.

The homestay Xandria booked was a detached building which meant that only Yuliana and Xandrialived there. Obviously, Xandria was not here at that moment. Being alone in a strange environment andfeeling uncomfortable made Yuliana weak in willpower.

Yuliana instantly had a sense of loneliness and fear.

After sitting by the headboard for a while under the blanket, she stretched out her hand to replace theswitch once again. Finally, she found it. However, the lights did not come on even after she pressed theswitch.

Yuliana panicked a little. She tried again, but there was no light.

Her mind was a mess.

After a while, she thought of something. She found her phone on the shelf by the bedside. Hernervousness was slightly relieved once she turned on the light on her phone.

However, her body was still uncomfortable. Her head was heavy. She touched her forehead, whichseemed to be a little hot.

Yuliana called Xandria, wanting her to go to the pharmacy to buy a thermometer and a cooling patchfor her when the latter was back. Yet, no one picked up the phone despite her calling several times.

A sense of helplessness rose in Yuliana. She held her knees with both arms and bit her arm to endurethe discomfort and soreness of her eyes. After a while, she lifted the blanket and got out. She put on acoat and went out with her phone.

From her memory, there was a pharmacy near the homestay.

Maybe it was because of her cold that Yuliana felt extremely cold when she came out of the homestay.When the wind blew, she could not help but tremble.

She walked slowly toward the direction of the pharmacy based on her memories. The dark alley was soquiet that she could hear her heartbeat.

Yuliana suddenly felt that the alley was extraordinarily long. When she finally reached the end, she feltdizzy and could not stand still anymore, causing her to fall.

The last remaining consciousness of her registered the faint smell of sandalwood.

It felt familiar to her.

“Yuliana!” Christopher held Yuliana and shouted twice. She did not respond. He could feel that the backof her hand was a little hot. It was obviously higher than his body temperature.

With an assumption, he raised his hand and touched her forehead. His eyes darkened. He then carriedher and hurried out of the alley.

Yuliana’s consciousness was in bits and pieces. Sometimes, she vaguely felt that there was a light onher face, and people were walking in and out around her. Sometimes, she felt as though she was keptin the dark, feeling chaotic and unclear about everything.

When her body was hot, she felt like she was in a furnace. When she was cold, she felt the wind fromall directions.

One night had passed.

Yuliana felt a cold hand on her forehead. She opened her eyes in a daze and merely saw a blurredfigure sitting by the bed.
