Chapter 645 Hard Times Are Coming

Eastbay was much hotter than Capitalis.

Sean wanted to take off his clothes, but Abigail firmly refused, “Don’t take them off. Let’s

wait until we get to Alice’s house.”

Ronaldo looked at Sean, who was still wearing thick clothes, and couldn’t help but

suggest, “Perhaps you can take off one layer. It’s a big problem if you get too hot.”

“Okay… just take off your outer coat.” Abigail compromised as she noticed the sweat on

Sean’s cheeks.

Sean quickly removed his coat and took a deep breath, feeling refreshed.

The three of them ventured further into the island.

The place still resembled a traditional village with bungalows and brick houses. The

roadside grass was lush, and the sound of insects chirping was constant.

Abigail felt a sense of peace here.

They were accustomed to living in the bustling city, where everyone was always in a rush.

But here, there was a tranquility and slowness that could calm one’s mind.

They followed Ronaldo to Alice’s house. The old lady’s house was a very ordinary brick

house with two rooms adjacent to the living room and not even a bathroom…

Sean had never lived in such a place and felt a little bewildered. “Can we even stay here?”

He asked Ronaldo.

Ronaldo walked in. “Why can’t we? Alice’s family used to have very good living

conditions.”

Abigail followed him inside and noticed that the floor was still cemented and shiny from

being stepped

The house was cool and tidy.

“What does Alice do for a living? What about her children?” Abigail whispered to Ronaldo.

Ronaldo sat down at the square table in the living room and instinctively picked up the

teapot, finding that there was still water inside, and poured tea for them directly.

Abigail could tell from his familiarity that he must have a close relationship with Alice.

The house was quiet, indicating that Alice hadn’t returned yet.

Sean observed the layout of the house. They were in the living room as soon as they

stepped in, and there were two rooms next to it.

He noticed a back door next to the living room and walked toward it, pushing it open.

As the door swung open, it felt as if the door to a new world was also opening at that

moment.

Alice’s backyard was particularly beautiful, with many jars placed in the corners, and there

was also a small area for raising chickens and ducks. The kitchen and bathroom were also

located in the backyard.

He stepped into the yard, carefully observing his surroundings, and discovered that Alice’s

backyard concealed many treasures.

Cured meats and other items were hanging in abundance under the beams.

Ronaldo came out with a cup of tea and handed it to Sean. “How do you like it here? It’s

beautiful, isn’t it?”

“It’s great. It has a vibrant atmosphere, and most importantly, it’s very peaceful and

serene.” Sean stood in the yard, listening to the nearby birds chirping and admiring the

dappled light in front of him. Suddenly, he felt incredibly at ease.

Ronaldo sat down on a lounge chair next to the flower rack and leaned back, gazing up at

the sky. “You’re here to heal your heart. Once your heart is well taken care of, everything

else will fall into place.”

If one’s heart was well taken care of, what illness couldn’t be cured?

Sean looked at him while holding the teacup. “Come again?”

“Many people become depressed when they realize they have a serious illness, but

depression only leads to a faster death, don’t you think? Before this, Eric stayed here as

well. He loved it here and lived with Alice for a while. He didn’t experience any negative

emotions at all. Eswadian people are suited to live in places with beautiful scenery,”

Ronaldo said with a smile.

Sean sipped his tea slowly. “You’re right.”

He slowly discovered Ronaldo’s wisdom. He was a wise fool with a unique understanding

of life.

Abigail joined them in the backyard and couldn’t help but look around. After taking it all in,

she whispered, “I suddenly feel calm.”

“This little courtyard has its magic,” Ronaldo said with a smile.

Just as he finished speaking, a voice came from outside, “Did you bring your friends,

Ronaldo?”

“Yes, Alice!” Ronaldo immediately stood up.

Sean and Abigail followed him to meet Alice.

She was very short and thin as she hunched over, but she was carrying two buckets of

water.

When she saw Abigail and Sean, Alice looked them up and down, then smiled and said,

“You two make a perfect couple.”

Ronaldo helped her with the water, and Abigail quickly fetched another bucket. “Yes, it’s

all about the perfect combination of talent and beauty.”

“Yes, that’s right. Oh, I’m getting old. I have to take a break after carrying water, Alice

said, patting her shoulder and walking toward the house.

Sean followed her and politely greeted them, “Nice to meet you, Alice.”

“Good, good, good. This place is simple, so you’ll have to adapt if you come to live here.

I’m used to living here and don’t like going out anymore,” Alice explained to him.

“We should adapt when we come here,” Sean replied.

Alice sat down at the square table and poured herself some water.

While Abigail and Ronaldo brought the water to the kitchen, Alice had already finished

drinking her water and asked Sean to show her his hand.

Sean extended his hand to her.

After carefully examining his pulse, the old lady looked into his eyes and said, “In the

world of martial arts, what you have is a damaged heart meridian… Repairing it won’t be

an easy task.”

“Mm… I’ve suffered quite a serious injury,” Sean replied.

Nodding, the old lady said, “I heard from Ronaldo that you’ll need to stay here for two

years to fully

recover.”
