Chapter 421: Chapter 422 Watch Closely_l
The stone plumted to the ground!
The previously flat ground suddenly sank, and with a whoosh, a pit over a ter wide opened up!
Was this… a trap?
Purple Sumrs was shocked. She approached and peered inside, seeing that the pit was about two ters deep, with an animal trap placed inside, clamping firmly onto the stone Alexander Sumrs had just thrown.
If soone carelessly walked here, not only would they fall into the pit and get head over heels injured, but the animal trap could also break their legs!
Purple Sumrs felt a chill in her heart.
“Why did you bring to see this?” Slight fear could be seen in Purple Sumrs’ eyes as she looked at him, “Are you really taking us out to relax? If we… if my mom and I didn’t know and wandered over here…” Wouldn’t that be tragically ironic?
Alexander Sumrs chuckled, reaching out to tousle her hair, “Would I let you co to such a place when I’m showing you around? You were worried about safety hazards on the island before, so I had soone set this up.”
With no bodyguard on the island, many such chanisms and traps were set up, especially in places that were easy to access for invaders. Any external intruders would accidentally enter them and trigger the traps.
At the very least, Alexander could notify his subordinates; upon receiving a ssage, they could arrive to provide assistance within ten minutes.
Alexander Sumrs had made ticulous arrangents, yet Purple Sumrs felt heavy-hearted. The more elaborate the preparations, the more it signified the number of people wanting to kill Alexander Sumrs, making even a simple trip require such caution and vigilance.
“Do you have any plans for the future? Are you going to live like this forever?” Purple Sumrs couldn’t help but ask him.
Constantly on guard against being killed, wasn’t it exhausting?
Alexander Sumrs was sowhat pleased to hear this. If a woman showed concern for a man’s future, it was often because she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him, and he could not think of any other reason.
“Purple, are you worried about ?” Alexander Sumrs was delighted, holding Purple Sumrs’ face to kiss it repeatedly, “Don’t worry, for you, I must live to a ripe old age!”
Purple Sumrs:
That’s not what she ant to discuss…
On the way back, Alexander Sumrs kissed her several more tis. Perhaps it was because they were unwatched on the island that he was so unrestrained, or perhaps it was because he sensed that Purple Sumrs’ attitude had relaxed, so he pushed further.
Purple Sumrs felt like she was walking into the lion’s den.
She tried to convince herself to think more of Alexander Sumrs’ virtues and to treat him as a regular love interest.
But when Alexander Sumrs pointed to a large boulder in the forest, proposing future romantic encounters there, Purple Sumrs couldn’t take it anymore.
Her face as red as the rosy clouds, she fled in a panic.
Wanting a proper romance… why was it so difficult?
By the ti they returned to the camp, Atra Blanc had already prepared the ingredients. A white tablecloth was laid on the table with biscuits and black tea, as well as sliced fruit and grilled at.
The aroma of the food attracted the island’s animals.
A squirrel hopped onto the table, eager to taste the fruit, with Tiny cheekily following behind, occasionally nibbling at its tail.
Atra Blanc was too busy to pay attention to them as she was feeding a sika deer with a carrot, surrounded by three or four rabbits waiting to be fed.
From a distance, the scene of humans and animals coexisting harmoniously was vivid and engaging.
Unfortunately, the scene did not last long, as the animals scattered in fright when the siblings ca back with Cleo.
“Even the animals know to run from Alexander Sumrs!” Purple Sumrs consoled herself internally, “Fleeing isn’t cowardice on my part – it must be an instinct, right?”
When Alexander Sumrs returned, he took over the task of grilling at from Atra Blanc.
The at, which Atra Blanc had marinated early in the morning, was flavorful. Grilled over charcoal, the fat sizzled and the scent was tantalizing.
Once grilled, Alexander Sumrs cut the at into small pieces and placed them onto the plates of Purple Sumrs and Atra Blanc.
Purple Sumrs ate piece by piece, her eyes brimming with joy, her youthful naivety showing through, and as her gaze danced, she exuded a lively charm.
Alexander Sumrs was bewitched by her, thinking: I have to be vigilant! This little creature is too alluring!
