Chapter 171 A Starlight Path
In fact, Clarissa was very afraid of closing her eyes when she was conscious.
After all, after experiencing all the pain in the past, she did not trust everything around her subconsciously.
It was okay when she kept her eyes open. But if she closed her eyes when she was conscious, she couldn't see everything happening around her, and the fear buried in her memory would come over her.
Therefore, it took great determination for her to close her eyes in front of him and trust him.
Anderson noticed that her fingertips were trembling slightly, and he pulled her into his arms and asked, "Are you feeling cold?"
Clarissa shook her head.
She pursed her lips and swallowed. Finally, she asked with trembling voice in fear, "Will you let go of my hand?"
"No."
His voice was firm, which made Clarissa feel relieved.
As long as he was here, she would not be so scared.
Soon, a strong wind was blowing right in her face, and the sound of the propeller got closer. She knew that the helicopter had landed.
She suddenly lost her footing, and let out a soft cry of surprise.
When she reacted, Anderson had carried her in his arms.
She didn't open her eyes, but grabbed his sleeve with her fingers firmly, and her face turned a little pale.
Anderson asked in a low voice, "Are you still afraid in this way?"
She was taken aback for a moment, and then she realized that he had seen how scared and uneasy she was.
She shrunk into Anderson's arms. Feeling his clear and steady breathing, she was at ease.
Gradually, she didn't seem to be so scared anymore.
Clarissa smiled and shook her head.
Only did then Anderson kiss her lips lightly and said softly, "Trust me."
"Okay."
Anderson held her and strode forward.
She could feel that he took her on the helicopter. It was very quiet. Except for the rumbling noise of the propeller, there was no other sound.
After getting on the helicopter, he sat down, but did not put her down.
Instead, he held her and let her sit on her lap.
Clarissa was a little embarrassed and wanted to open her eyes. But as soon as she moved her eyelashes, she heard his serious voice.
"Do not move."
She didn't dare to move or open her eyes anymore, but she got more and more curious.
Where was he taking her?
No one told her the answer, and the helicopter took off soon.
She could feel the sense of weightlessness at the moment of takeoff, but she didn't feel scared because he held her in his arms.
It was still very quiet. But in addition to the sound of the propellers, she could still hear the sound of footsteps from time to time.
Soon, the helicopter stabilized and started flying at a constant speed.
Clarissa didn't know where he was going to take her, and she could only wait quietly with her eyes closed.
To be honest, there was a little expectation and excitement her heart.
After all, she didn't know what would surprise her next.
After about ten minutes, the helicopter finally landed.
It was not long, but Clarissa felt that a long time had passed because her eyes were closed.
Anderson carried her in his arms and got off the helicopter.
Clarissa could feel the cold wind blowing on her face. But soon, the cold wind disappeared and was replaced by warmth and delicate fragrance.
Where was here?
She was very expectant curious.
Unfortunately, she could not open her eyes without Anderson's order.
Although she really wanted to know where she was at the moment, she decided to listen to him, because she didn't want him to be angry.
Anderson put her on the ground, and then seemed to step aside and did something. He didn't release her hand, but she could feel that he took two steps further.
Immediately afterwards, she heard his deep and magnetic voice.
"Alright."
Clarissa opened her eyes immediately.
There was darkness in front of her, and nothing wonderful happened. She didn't even know where she was because there were no lights around.
Fortunately, there was a piece of glass in front of her, and she could see the sparse stars in the sky when she looked up, which made her feel a bit bright.
But this faint light couldn't illuminate much, let alone make her see the surrounding things clearly.
Clarissa was slightly disappointed.
"Where is here…"
Before she finished speaking, Anderson flicked a switch.
The surrounding lights were all turned on in an instant. It was not the kind of particularly dazzling lights. Twinkly blue lights were were shinning around, just like beautiful starlight.
The lights had been spreading from under the feet to the distance, with almost no end in sight.
She felt that she was in the vast sky, ad the galaxy was right under her feet. She was surrounded by endless darkness, but there was such a bright path leading her and attracting her to go forward.
Clarissa was completely shocked, staring blankly at everything in front of her.
At this moment, Anderson held her hand.
As soon as Clarissa raised her head, she saw his starry eyes that were brighter than the stars.
She was slightly touched. Anderson held her hand more tightly, smiled at her, and then took her forward.
This was a road paved by the Milky Way.
Scattered starlight were spreading under her feet. Except for these, nothing else could be seen.
She could only feel that this seemed to be a road suspended in mid-air, because through the starlight under her feet, she could vaguely see the unclear outlines of mountains, which made her more excited.
Clarissa was completely doumfounded!
She opened her eyes wide and looked at all these curiously.
Next to her, Anderson was much calmer. He held her hand tightly, leading her to the end of the road.
"Anderson, where is here? It's so beautiful!"
Anderson smiled faintly, "Have a guess."
Clarissa opened her eyes and thought for a long time, but she couldn't think of any beautiful place like here in this town.
Anderson chuckled and rubbed her nose, but he didn't tell her and kept her guessing.
"You'll know it later."
Well... alright!
It seemed that he intended to carry this surprise through to the end.
Clarissa didn't ask any more. They walked for about five or six minutes before the starlight under their feet completely disappeared.
The surroundings became dark and quiet again.
Clarissa was a little nervous, and subconsciously grabbed his sleeve.
Anderson took her into his arms and whispered, "Don't be afraid."
After a short pause, he suddenly said, "Close your eyes, and open them when I count to three."
Clarissa looked up at him curiously. Although there was no lights around, she could still feel his warm and firm eyes.
