Spoiled by Eight Uncles

Yena’s mother’s bracelet became dimmer, and it looked gloomy. She was still teaching Yena by saying, “First of all, it would be rude for you to interrupt people’s meals. It’s the most intimate time in a family, and you destroying their peace is not welcomed. And, visiting people at these hours was like you’re begging for food.” Yena nodded and replied, “I understand now.” They went back by car, and Yena’s mother was worried that her husband would find out that she had secretly bought the bracelet, so she carefully hid it and asked Yena not to slip it out. Yena was learning lots of things from her mother at the moment.

Blake was still digging the hole in the barren mountain. He walked around at the bottom of the hole, trying his best to search for a bad aura. He was getting agitated about not finding anything. He thought of Bettany waiting for Lilly back home; he did not know how to disclose the news to her. He had been bringing her disappointing news for days. He walked to the side of his car, and he wearily opened the door to sit in the driver’s seat. He stayed still for a long time. He annoyedly lit up a cigarette, although he did not smoke. He was just trying to do something to feel alive. He did not puff the cigarette; he just put his arm on the car window and stared at the smoke, as if his worries could disappear with the smoke.

They hoped that Lilly would see the news and know that everyone was still looking for her and that she might be able to contact them. Hence, anyone could come take a picture of the hole. The reporter commented on the picture taken, “The Crawford family said that they wanted to build a man-made lake with villas, but it seems like they’re not doing the layout properly.”

“I know right; this is how they’re approved with this land. But everyone knows for a fact that they’re searching for

this university always complained that they felt like they were in a village; it did not look like a city at all. The forest was located at the back of the university, so basically no one would come here. She panted after walking for a while, saying, “Master, I’m hungry.” He replied, “Hold it for a while more.” He looked around and made sure no one was around, and he said, “I’ll piggyback on you.” She nodded and said, “Yes! Thank you, Master!” She leaned on his back, and he was sprinting at light speed. Lisa
