Matter of Love novel Chapter 671

"Eden, are you ready? It was not a place to relax, but a place to bind yourself. You have no freedom inside. You only have a set of clothes to change, and the rest, like your phones, pads, is gone." Looking at Eden, Greg was preparing Eden mentally by telling him that he couldn't have his favorite things.

Eden's eyes didn't change at all. Staring at Eden's eyes, Greg swore that if there was a trace of flinch in Eden's eyes, he would take Eden back.

'Well, no regrets. Eden, you are a man!'

Greg bent down and held Eden's hand. This time, Eden didn't refuse to get in touch with Greg as he did before he went out of the room. He held Greg's hand tightly. Eden had heard about the cruelty of the Xiaoyao Island from his great grandfather before he came here. Eden believed that since his great grandfather had said that Xiaoyao Island was a horrible place, then it was really a hell that would make him experience a nightmare forever. He might not even have a chance to get out of the hell.

But so what? Eden liked this world, the plants in it, the grief and joy of this world, and the imperfection. Eden believed that even if he became the decline after he went to the Xiaoyao Island, it would still be sunny after the gloomy day. Thinking of this, he didn't feel scared anymore.

Eden blinked his eyes and swallowed all the tears in his eyes. Then he forced a bitter smile and said, "The books on the bookshelf of great grandfather are so obscure." His paintings were more beautiful.

It was not easy for Eden, who could only understand cartoons, to know those words. It was really difficult to let him understand the meaning of the words.

Howard said that he had arranged everything. All Greg needed to do was to bring Eden to the island.

Greg took Eden's hand and led him to the island. Rows and rows of willows were planted on both sides of the island. A wisp of wind blew up the willows.

Perhaps even the willow tree didn't want an innocent child like Eden to enter the island. Instead, it took off the willow leaves from its body one after another and blew them on the body of Greg. It wanted him to keep Eden and take Eden back.

Eden looked up at the willow leaves floating in the sky and felt even sadder. He knew that if he didn't leave, he would cry.

Eden shook off Greg's hand and walked inside.

Looking at Eden's back disappearing in the vast green, Greg felt as if something was blocked in his heart, making him unable to breathe. Just then, his phone rang.

Suppressing the sadness in his heart, Greg picked up the phone and said, "Hello, Grandpa I beg your pardon? Okay, I see." Greg put the phone back in his pocket, turned around and left without hesitation.

Eden walked into Xiaoyao Island. Looking at the beautiful scenery and thinking of the peripatetic island that his great grandfather had described to him, Eden had a playful heart, but he still had to be careful.

"Hey, boy, are you new here?" At this time, a child about twelve or thirteen years old jumped down from the tree beside. The boy was carrying a stick in his hand. His upper body was bare, and there was a Mouse tattoo on his lower body

Yes, there was a Mouse tattoo on his body. The pattern of the mouse was lifelike, and it was a big fat mouse with flickering eyes!

"Boy, have you heard of Henard Zheng, the robber?" The boy pointed at himself with his thumb, as if he was really someone famous.

Eden shook his head and said, "I've only heard of the robber Charlie Zheng."

"You are right! Charlie Zheng is my ancestor!" Henard patted his thin chest with pride.

Eden looked suspiciously at Henard's figure. Well, Henard had a small figure. Maybe he took after Charlie Zheng.

"Hello, which family are you from?" Looking at the tattered black elastic suit on Eden, Henard immediately concluded that Eden was from a poor family. In order to let the new comer know the rules here, Henard thought it was necessary for him to be the teacher.

"I am..." Eden was about to tell him his family background, but he remembered that his grandfather had told him not to expose his identity in the Xiaoyao Island and to disguise himself as a pauper who couldn't even afford GUCCI.

"HMM I'm from a poor family." Eden stammered. Then he added, "I'm really poor. I could only have Häagen-Dazs."

As a matter of fact, Eden hadn't remembered the taste since he ate Häagen-Dazs last time. Because the taste was so ordinary that he didn't want to eat it anymore.

"What did you say?" Henard looked at the little boy in front of him, who was only five or six years old. Although he wore ragged clothes, his eyes showed something that could only be seen in rich kids' eyes. What a waste.

Well, it seemed that his parents asked him to pretend to be poor before he came in. Henard thought for a while and smiled. Anyway, it was almost the time for him to be promoted. He might as well make use of this little boy to do something big, so that he could probably be promoted earlier.

At that moment, Henard walked up to Eden, fiddled with the big stick in his hand, raised his face and looked at Eden arrogantly. "Hey, boy, from now on, you can hang out with me. I'll take you to the trash heap. No, I'll take you to the gold mine." Henard imitated the big brothers who wore sunglasses in the gangster movies he had seen before entering the Xiaoyao Island. But this "brother" he played was not so good.

Eden looked at Henard calmly. He remembered that his great grandfather had told him that if he met someone bigger than him in the Xiaoyao Island, he should do nothing first. He would listen to what others said first and then find an opportunity to escape.

Thinking of this, Eden smiled and said, "Big brother."

"Well, from now on, you are a member of Brother Henard. You are the deputy leader." Henard looked at Eden boldly and said.

"How many men do we have?" Eden couldn't help but imitate Henard.

All of a sudden, Henard burst into laughter. Then he lowered his head to look at Eden and said proudly, "I was the only one. Now with you, we are two now.!"

"Oh..." Eden suddenly felt a row of crows flying over his head. What kind of this was? Isn't he a bald commander?
