Chapter 301
The guard flew in to retrieve Yu Sha as soon as he realized what was happening but missed her by an arm reach . His eyes screamed as he circled in place in all directions trying to sense where she may have gone to . Could she had gone to Red Rock City?
When Yu Sha came to, she fell in front of Atlas's house . He was watering flowers the same as when she first stumbled into his place . Startled of the commotion, he turned to the side and saw Yu Sha on the ground trying to make sense of what happened .
"Ohh . . . " Atlas gave her a surprised reaction .
"Whao!! How is that possible?" She asked .
"How did you get here?" He feigned innocent .
The same bird flew around her one more time and ascended away .
"That bird took me here?"
Atlas replied, "Oh . . . Hm . . . Interesting . The bird and I have become friends over the years . " He reached his hands to her . "Let me help you up . "

Yu Sha looked up and smiled . She reached her hand up to accept his offers . "Can I be its friend too?"
He smiled . "I think she liked you . She must have came to find you . "
"Ehhh . . . really?" Yu Sha asked excitingly . "Does she has a name?"
"Mm . . . When she fly under the sun, her feathers radiates a bright reddish color . So I named her Ruby . "
Yu Sha waved up to the sky and thanked Ruby .
"I think anytime when you need her, try calling her name . She will come to you if she could . " Atlas added .
"Wow . " Yu Sha was astonished of the new animal friend's ability when she remembered her mission . "Oh yes, that's right . I wanted to thank you for what you did last time . "
He smiled and replied, "It was my pleasure . "

"Anyways, I wanted to treat you to a meal and you can tell me about it but . . . " Her face saddened . "But . . . my bag that was beside me, didn't come with me . " She looked at him with big sad eyes . Her bags always get left behind .
"Helpless of her reaction, he consoled . "Do you want to go back and get it? We can always stay here to catch up, or if you want, my treat this time . You'll owe me next time . You pick . "
She felt the need to keep herself busy and distracted . She pondered for a moment when her face lit up . "How about we do a road trip?"
"Road trip?" He asked .
"Yes, we start from here, eat and drink . Tomorrow we set out to Crystal Cliff Botanical Garden, then back to the city at tomorrow night . Enjoy city life . The following day, let's visit harvest shelter and then I have to get back to the cruise to work . " It was after she finished saying this that Yu Ping came into mind . What if he came back with the enemy and she was not around? His hard work would be for nothing .
Atlas didn't hesitate to agree, but Yu Sha quickly halted her words . "Wait, I'm sorry, this time I can't do road trip . I'll spend the day here but have to get back . There is something important I have to take care of which will require me back . "
"Either way works fine . " He replied trying to calm his desire to lock her up with him for eternity . He was able to secretly keep tabs on her, allowed her more time to get used to him in hope to bring her memories back . For a person who lived through many millennials, a month or two felt like a day or two .

Atlas led her to the back where they hung out last time . On the side of the house was a small veggie garden . "You garden?"
"Mm . . . it's a hobby . " A hobby only for her . The past her wanted a nice quiet place in an open field, a small garden and not far from a waterfall . This world, he prepared for her . As it seemed she was unable to recall, he proceeded to ask, "Have you eaten?"
Her energy drained momentarily . "Ah . . I was in a hurry this morning and left as soon as I packed . I was hoping to grab something along the way . " But she never expected Hue Chi to step in and cut off resources for her . 'I guess, he could do anything, push a person to the brink of death if he wanted to . '
Seeing her expression, Atlas assumed she must have encountered something unpleasant . In hope to make her smile, he spoke . "Me too . Have a seat and I'll fix something quick for us . "
"Okay . Let me know what I can help with . "
"It's alright . You just relax . " He couldn't find it in himself to order her around .
Yu Sha took a seat while Atlas went inside to bring her some teas .
A few minutes later, he brought her a tea set . "Enjoy this while I fix something for us . After this, there is a place I wanted to show you . "
Excited to see what he had to show her, she obeyed obediently . Atlas walked around to the side and picked some veggies .
Yu Sha proceeded to help herself to the tea but soon, Ruby ascended from the horizon and perched next to her . Although she wasn't sure if Ruby could understand language, she had a feeling that Ruby could understand people's intentions .
"Ruby, thank you for bringing me here . What do you like to eat? I would like to get you something next time when I come . "
"Hahaha . . . " Atlas came back to hear her talking to Ruby .
"What's so funny?"
"Your good intentions are enough, but if you must, beyond the hill there is a sea of sunflowers . That's what she likes to eat . sunflower seeds . "
She perked up, "Really? Can I take her there?"
Atlas called out . "Ruby . " A signal for Ruby to take Yu Sha there to kill time while he cooked .
Ruby flew off but swirled around Yu Sha instructing her to follow .
