Chapter 559 Isolated Island (3)
The sudden urge to pee disappeared.
What replaced it was the intense fear of the unknown.
Walking back to her bed, Ran Xueyi shook Janice awake.
"Janice!"
"Wake up, Janice!"
Janice slightly opened her eyes into slits and looked at her.
"Hm? What is it?"
"I need you to wake everyone up."
Janice frowned, still feeling sleepy.
"Ran Xueyi, are you still dreaming? Why do you look so afraid?"
Is that what she looks like right now?
Ran Xueyi didn't ponder over this too much and explained, "There's something wrong here. I hear two men talking about us."
Although she just wanted to sleep, Janice still used her ears to listen to her. "Oh, what did they say?"
"I don't know…I don't understand what they were talking about. But I have this feeling that it's not something good." Ran Xueyi looked at Janice, hoping that she would believe her. "Look, I know we just got out of that crate, but don't you think it's weird?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJanice replied, "It is."
Ran Xueyi was happy that Janice shared the sthoughts as her.
Unfortunately…
"It's weird that you wokeup. It's even stranger that you would accuse the people who saved us of being bad." Janice patted her hand and laid back to bed. "Ran Xueyi, we've stayed in that crate for days. What you're thinking is just part of a dream."
"But I really heard them."
Janice didn't listen to her.
"Now, go back to sleep. Who knows? Maybe when we wake up, we're on land."
Will it really be the case? Ran Xueyi wanted to believe it was as Janice said. She just needed to sleep in and think of nothing else. Maybe, just maybe, when they wake up tomorrow, they'll be back in their own homes.
Seeing no movement from Janice, Ran Xueyi tried to wake up the other kids. She told them the sthing, but most of them annoyingly ignored her and even cussed her out. A few of them listened, but they were too tired to move, and even if they heard her, not one of them actually believed what Ran Xueyi told them.
In the end, it was only Ran Xueyi who stayed up at night.
She stood next to the door, and when the clock struck 2 in the morning, she slipped out of the room and headed somewhere secluded.
The yacht wasn't as large as a cruise ship. However, it still has several rooms for people to stay in. There was also a huge space outside to lounge and watch the waves of the ocean.
Since it was in the middle of the night, not a lot of people were awake. She only saw a few men walking around, but none of them looked hard enough to find her walking past them when they weren't looking.
She looked for a lifeboat. A silly decision for someone who doesn't know how to use or even paddle against the angry waves of the sea. But Ran Xueyi couldn't think of anything else.
Was the lifeboat really a better choice than staying here? Ran Xueyi pondered this question seriously. But she couldn't cup with a good reason or answer.
Besides, she was filled with doubts after taking a round trip around the yacht.
Strangely, there were no dangerous weapons found there. It really looked like they were tourists who cto enjoy the sea.
But she couldn't shake the strange feeling from earlier.
Moreover, what those men said didn't sit right with her.
But what if Janice was right?
What if she was just panicking and accusing the people who saved them wrongly?
What if she was still sleeping and in a dream?
But what if I was right?
Shaking her head, Ran Xueyi felt it was too much for someone who was barely a teenager to think of.
In the first place, this kind of ordeal was something anyone shouldn't even experience.
Yet here they were.
—
"Wake up, it's morning."
Ran Xueyi stirred in bed and looked up at the bright clouds peeking from the curtains of their room.
Janice, who had already looked ready to get out, had her hands on her hips and scowled at her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Breakfast has been served, and everyone's already waiting for you to wake up. Let's go."
At once, Ran Xueyi sat up and looked around.
The room was empty. Aside from the two of them, the others have already gone outside.
Seeing her dazed expression, Janice had enough and dragged Ran Xueyi out of the bed.
Ran Xueyi wanted to release her hand from her grasp, but it was already too late.
Moreover, what was the point of resisting after she turned back?
That's right. Instead of sneaking out in the middle of the night, which was a dangerous act and possibly a suicidal thing to do, Ran Xueyi returned to their room and forced herself to sleep.
When she thought about it, what could a teenager like her really do in the middle of the ocean? And alone?
Ran Xueyi didn't stop Janice from dragging her across the yacht. Although her eyes busily scanned the place.
And once they arrived in the dining room, Ran Xueyi was once again arranged to sit next to the old man, whose nshe now knew.
Mister Park's eyes sparkled upon sighting her. Initially, Ran Xueyi thought that this old man was looking at her fondly with those wrinkles around his eyes.
But now…
His eyes seemed sinister and filled with malicious intentions; things that she would rather not find out.
Had he been looking atwith those eyes since last night?
"Ran Xueyi, we've been waiting for you. Don't be shy to try the things I've picked for you."
On the plate in front of her, Mister Park chose scrambled eggs, sliced tomatoes, hotdogs, and toasted bread. The classic breakfast one might order in a restaurant first thing in the morning.
Had it been last night, she might have accepted it with a smile and ate her fill with it.
However, right now. All she could see in front of her was her last meal before she was served next as a dish.
Sadly, it was already too late to realize that a twist of fate made the beautiful scene of being saved now look like they had been pushed further inside the Lion's cage.
