Chapter 131 Hippocampus Effect
In the end, Ainsley carefully handed the roasted mushroom to Lainey and said, “Lainey, try it first.”
“What’s wrong?” She picked up the shiitake mushrooms and took a bite. Her face changed. “Bah! It
tastes so bad!”
Roman looked at her proudly. “Try the one I roasted.”
Lainey glared at him. “Lisa must have told me the wrong way. I am not convinced, and I will not eat
yours!”
She turned her face away. All she could feel was the good smell of roasted garlic.
Serina was sitting next to her, munching on the shiitake mushrooms. She was really enjoying them.
She couldn’t help muttering in her heart, “How delicious this is!”
She had eaten the dishes made by Roman, and they were indeed delicious. But if she ate them,
wouldn’t that mean she admitted she was not good at it?
But they really smelled good. She was already mouth watering.
She couldn’t stand it anymore!
She picked up the shiitake mushrooms and took a bite.
“Delicious! Damn it! Roman won.”
Roman smiled proudly. “I’ve told you.”
“Don’t be cocky. You’re a cook, and it’s no surprise that your food tastes good.”
Ainsley snickered. When she came back to her senses, there was a grilled prawn on her plate. Manuel
had already peeled it for her.
“Thank you.” She put it in her mouth. She also saw that Manuel roasted it himself just now.
When the sun was going down, the moon was rising gradually.
The lake was slowly changing the color and the reddish part slowly disappeared. Soon after, it was
covered with a layer of dark blue, reflecting the stars.
After eating and drinking, Lainey took Serina and Roman to hang out with other people who were also
on vacation, giving the privacy to Manuel and Ainsley.
The night was very beautiful at this moment on the resort island. The moonlight was rising, and the two
of them were walking on the beach. There were a few staff driving small trucks to collect the water
plants and garbage left on the beach after the tide rose.
Manuel and Ainsley were walking hand in hand like any other normal couple.
“Have you contacted Zane?” He asked.
Ainsley nodded. Almost everyone at the wedding scene heard about her going to find Zane yesterday.
“When I got home at night, Zane called and said that he didn’t recognize me at first because many
people pretended to be friends of his teacher. He was afraid of being lied to, so he kept pretending to
be arrogant around me and didn’t talk to me. Until last night, when he heard Kaliyah call out my name,
he found out that I was recommended by his teacher.”
Then, she made an appointment with Zane, and planned to take Serina there with her.
The two continued to walk. The beach at night was beautiful, and blue lights were hung on the trees.
In such a romantic atmosphere, Ainsley and Manuel were walking hand in hand.
She still could feel the taste of barbecue in the mouth. The person she liked was walking beside her.
Suddenly Ainsley stamped her feet, facing Manuel. She felt happy for no reason, but she also felt
kind of strange.
“Do you know what déjà vu is?”
“Déjà vu? I’m not sure.”
Ainsley pointed at the dark sky and said, “The shooting stars fall all the time, but the human being may
not be able to capture every falling star. When you see a shooting star falling from the sky, you feel as if
you’ve seen this scene many times before.”
She looked at Manuel again with a meaningful look in her eyes. “Déjà vu is a phenomenon, and it is
also called the hippocampus effect in psychology. Have you ever experienced a scene that
you feel familiar with? You feel that the same thing happened before. You even remember the
conversations
and mental changes clearly.”
Manuel didn’t understand why she mentioned this, but still nodded at her as it happened to him.
occasionally.
“I have also experienced it just now. I was walking with you on the beach looking at the stars, and the
sea breeze blew on my face. I think this kind of thing should have happened a long time ago more than
once.” There was a trace of doubt in Ainsley’s eyes.
Since déjà vu was not enough to describe her feeling just now, the phantom memory was not only an
image but also a feeling. She could even feel his warm palm in the memory and the faint cedar
fragrance around her.
An indescribable feeling hit her. It was like a hungry person receiving a steamed bun, feeling
hungry and full, feeling empty and fulfilled.
She covered her mouth and smiled. “Maybe the person walking next to me was you. This is the first
time I walked on the beach with you, but I have a sense of déjà vu.”
Manuel didn’t speak for a while because he didn’t know how to answer.
Ainsley pulled him to continue walking forward, and he could only hold her little hand tightly, looking her
back with guilt. The time seemed to become slower and slower.
After returning from a walk by the sea, Manuel told Ainsley that he had something to do and asked her
to go back to take a rest first.
They checked into several suites in the resort. Serina and Lainey had already gone to rest.
Ainsley didn’t think too much, and she just told him to come back soon.
In the bar on this island, Manuel found a corner and ordered a few glasses of brandy.
When Roman found him, he had already had three drinks.
“Mr. Gage? Why don’t you go to accompany Ms. Easton but drink alone here?”
Manuel gave him a whole bottle of xo with a blank expression on his face. “Come on, have a drink
with me.”
Roman swallowed his saliva, staring dumbfounded at the whole bottle of xo. He opened the bottle
obediently, took two glasses, poured a glass for himself, and poured another glass for himself.
“Mr. Gage, what’s the matter with you? Did you get dumped?”
“No.” Manuel took a drink.
Roman scratched his and cheek. “Have you had a fight with Ms. Easton? Girls, you have to please
them. Mr. Gage, you are just too cold.”
Manuel paused and said. “Am I also cold in front of her?”
“That’s not true,” Roman said resentfully.
“Yes.” Manuel drank the brandy in the glass in one gulp.
Roman couldn’t figure out what had happened to the Mr. Gage, and he stopped Manuel from pouring
another drink. “This is xo, not a beer!”
“Drinking so much is not good for your body.”
In the room, Ainsley just took a shower, did her skin care, and wrote her paper for a while.
It was almost one o’clock in the morning, but Manuel still didn’t come back.
“What the hell is he doing? Why is he so busy until now?” She made several phone calls, but he
didn’t answer.
This kind of situation rarely happened, at least Manuel would answer her call soon.
While she was still worried, the doorbell rang.
She immediately went out to open the door, Roman was holding Manuel who was drunk.
“Ms. Easton, Mr. Gage was drunk and kept calling your name, so I sent him here.”
Ainsley hurriedly moved out of the way, and Roman immediately brought Manuel to the sofa. He took a
breath and said, “Mr. Gage has been drinking. I asked him what was wrong, and he didn’t say anything.
I’ll leave Mr. Gage with you.”
Ainsley nodded and walked Roman out.
Manuel was lying on the sofa and his brows were furrowed. He looked very uncomfortable and kept
muttering, “Aisy, Aisy…”
The smell of alcohol filled the whole room, Ainsley opened the window.
“Manuel! Manuel!” She called him twice, but Manuel didn’t respond.
