Chapter 506: Dinner

Translator: _Min_Editor: Caron_

When they left the manor, the butler prepared a black Benz for the two of them. The car exited the manor from the side door quietly without alerting reporters.

Because it was a private outing, Jiang Chen didn't bring the four Celestial Trades bodyguards. The reason was partially because of his confidence in his own abilities and partially because traveling with four muscular men would ruin the mood.

The entire day, Jiang Chen took Ayesha to tour the attractions in Bava. From the New Swan Fort to the Lake of Alpines, their footsteps traversed the entire area. It wasn't until the sun was setting that the two of them, with an entire memory card full of photos, called it a day.

Looking at the weary but excited red glow on the girl's face, Jiang Chen was delighted.

”Did you have fun today?”

”Mhmm!' Ayesha nodded, pleased.

Her normally expressionless face displayed a rare liveliness fitting for her age.

Jiang Chen smiled. He took the wheel and turned the car onto a rural road.

With just one glance, a golden wheat field entered their sight. The horizon in the distance connected the darkening sky with the jagged mountains. Dusk as a backdrop for the mountains looked magnificent and poetic.

It was already deep into the fall. On the wasteland, it probably started snowing.

Jiang Chen stared at the scene, amazed at the beauty.

Ayesha, by the side, raised her camera and captured a beautiful image.

Seeing as there was still some time, Jiang Chen took a detour and continued along the rural road.

Suddenly, his field of vision expanded.

At the end of the wheat field was a town with scattered lights. Between where the forest connected was a small town segregated by an iron fence. The people in ragged clothes gathered together, looked at the sky, and took care of their malnourished families. In front of the refugee camp, a couple of workers and polices gathered around a few vans as they distributed food and water.

”They are…”

With the camera in her hands, Ayesha gazed at the segregated area in the distance.

”People without a home are known as refugees. They left their home because of the war and most of them are from Libya or Sy—”Jiang Chen stopped suddenly.

He realized it was her hometown.

It must be a terrible feeling to see people from her hometown who had to flee their home.

Snap.

But she merely raised her camera and captured the scene.

”Don't you feel… uh… bad?” Jiang Chen was careful with his words.

Ayesha nodded then shook her head.

”Thank you.”

”Mhmm?”

Jiang Chen looked at Ayesha, puzzled.

She lowered her head with a wistful smile. Her frail fingertips subconsciously rubbed the shutter of the camera.

”If I hadn't met you… I might not even have made it here.”

She recollected everything that happened in the past. While she occasionally encountered danger, most of the time, she felt the warmth of the family. Jiang Chen didn't treat her with brute force just because of her identity; he had always been gentle.
