Chapter 365 An Accident Occurred in the Scenic Area

His voice was soft, yet incredibly cruel and cold, even icy.

I looked at him, unable to suppress a frown, he attributed all the bad things to the weak, as it should

be.

Seeing me looking at him, he slightly raised his eyebrows, his thin lips slightly parted, and he said

lightly, “My words may be cruel, but that’s the truth. Many times, only when you are strong enough can

you protect your own safety.”

I agreed with this statement, but not necessarily with his perception.

He had no sympathy for the weak, and I couldn’t persuade him, nor could I even argue against his

words. The human heart, it’s hard to put into words.

After a moment of silence, I suddenly spoke up, “Daniel, if one day you became the person you

described, the one who is trampled and bullied by others, would you hope someone could lend you a

hand?”

He seemed disdainful, his dark eyes sweeping over the goldfish that had already dissipated in the

pond, calmly saying, “No one can pull me, nor do I need it. If it really comes to that point, I would rather

die than leave those bastards behind.”

His words seemed to be correct, but they were too cold and heartless.

I knew he might have suffered a lot, perhaps more than I could ever imagine. Those who were

abandoned as children, their hearts are full of scars. They don’t expect warmth from others, nor dare to Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

expect it. Therefore, at any time, they know that only they can help themselves.

Was it really so? Are humans not more than plants, how could they be heartless?

It was just that it had never happened to oneself, so, there was no expectation.

Seeing my silence, Daniel suddenly gave a faint smile and said indifferently, “What? Do you think I’m

too cold and don’t want to be friends with me anymore?”

I looked up at him, the man was handsome and refined. I took a slight breath and said, “You won’t get

to that point, Sebastian won’t let anyone trample or bully you, and neither will I.”

He paused, probably surprised by the quick shift in my topic. His face stiffened slightly as he asked,

“Are you so confident in yourself?”

I furrowed my brows, looking at him sincerely and said, “It’s not confidence, it’s seriousness. I know

there are many uncertainties in the world, but you also said that we are friends now. If there ever

comes a day when you are not satisfied with your life, I will stand by your side and do everything I can

to help you.

After saying that, I felt my words were somewhat childish, and

couldn’t help but say, “However, you definitely won’t. A starved camel is still bigger than a horse, you

definitely won’t be down and out, let alone be bullied by anyone, so this assumption doesn’t exist at

all.”

He chuckled lightly, his dark eyes holding an expression I couldn’t decipher.

When Emma arrived, I was preparing to go to the performance area with Daniel to find them.

Seeing her rushing over, I quickly asked, “Sister-in-law, what’s wrong?”

She ran fast, probably in a hurry, clutching her stomach. She looked at me, her breath uneven, and

said, “Tabatha, something’s wrong.”

I was taken aback, clueless, and instinctively asked, “What’s wrong? What happened?”

“Just now, news came from the service area that there was an accident on the mountain cable car, and

many tourists were trapped in the cable car, including Hermosa and William. The old lady was so

scared that she almost fainted. I couldn’t get in touch with Walter. Now the whole. scenic area is in

chaos, and the service center is blocked. Many tourists. want an explanation from the service area,”

Emma finished in one breath, her hand on her stomach and her brows deeply furrowed.

Afraid that her emotional agitation might affect the fetus, I quickly supported her and said, “Sister-in-

law, don’t worry for now. If the cable car is just stuck, the people inside are safe. We just need to wait

for the cable car to resume operation. I’ll go check at the entrance of the cable car. You stay with

grandma and comfort her, don’t let anything happen to her. Walter is probably busy, I’ll try to contact

him as soon as possible.”

She was probably too flustered for a moment, so she lost her composure. But after hearing what I said,

she calmed down, her breathing became much steadier. She looked at me and nodded, saying,

“Alright, I’ll go take care of grandma. You keep me updated regularly.”

I nodded.

The scenic area was large, and the distance from the performance area to the cable car station was

not close. For the convenience of management, cars from outside were not allowed to enter, so a large

part of the journey into the mountain was either on foot or by taking the scenic area’s sightseeing bus.

Domestic scenic spots seemed to have all defaulted to this mode

Daniel called Sebastian over and together, we boarded the sightseeing car, arriving at the entrance of

the cable car, the scenic area of the primeval forest Naturally, the emphasis was on the word ‘primeval

The so-called primitive means undeveloped. In order not to destroy the natural structure here, it was

not allowed to enter the forest. If you wanted to see different scenery, you could only take the cable car

and lightly appreciate this forest.
