Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Chapter 560  Isolated Island (4)

"We're here, kids!" Mister Park announced, standing on the yacht's bow, as they got nearer an island. The sun's rays made the white sand on the beach glisten while the waves splashed and the wind carried the scent of the sea, warming everyone's hearts.

Seeing the island coming closer and closer, the children, who have suffered for many days, finally let their anxious hearts down. Finally, they can touch the land! Many of them sang inside their minds, hugging each other and clapping each other's backs. It was a joyous scene that could even move a monk to tears.

"Ran Xueyi, we can finally go home!" Janice hugged her, but Ran Xueyi couldn't muster a smile on her lips. Similar to other kids, she felt relieved that they were finally out of the sea. However, she just couldn't drive the words she heard from the men last night out of her head. Ran Xueyi didn't voice her thoughts to Janice, knowing that no one would listen to her.

Once the boat finally stopped by the ramp, the men arranged for the kids to line up. Thinking that there were too many people who would walk on the ramp, the kids obediently followed their instructions. Read Web s Online Free - Fire

At the back of the line, the kids couldn't stop talking with glee. "What are you going to do after you get back home?"

"I want to take a bath."

"I'll hug my parents to death and tell them I love them!"

Everyone voiced their wishes. "I'm going to the salon and bring my hair back alive!" Janice pinched a coarse strand of her brown hair. "What about you, Ran Xueyi?"

Ran Xueyi flattened her lips before she replied, "I—"

"Alright, kids! We're here!" One man shouted at them. "Line up according to your age, from youngest to oldest!"

The children, who were still talking among each other, quietened up and followed the orders. Among the twenty children, five of them were eleven or twelve years old. Two were thirteen or fourteen. And the rest were fifteen or seventeen.

Ran Xueyi looked at the kids hurrying up to their lines. After thinking for a moment, she finally moved her feet towards the end of the line. "What are you doing?" Janice quickly grabbed her arm. "You're the sage as me. Cwith me." Shaking her head, Ran Xueyi said, "Janice, do you trust me?"

Janice never saw Ran Xueyi look so grave before. She sighed. "Is this about your dream last night again?"

"Janice—"

"Shh. I know what you're thinking, but it's not going to happen." Janice laughed. "You're just worrying too much." Ran Xueyi frowned and opened her mouth, but her voice was stuck in her throat. How could she make Janice believe her? Or trust her when she's dismissing her words? Feeling that she was a bit harsh to her, Janice comforted her and said, "Okay, how about we do this? I'll line up here and you go to the end of the line? But don't blme if they scold you for lining up in the wrong line."

Ran Xueyi reluctantly nodded her head and watched as Janice moved towards the other line.

"What's wrong? Why didn't you take her with you?" one kid on her line asked. Janice paused to look at Ran Xueyi, who was moving towards the end of the line. Then, she shook her head and said, "Why take her here? She's older than us." It was a lie. But Janice didn't want to tell the truth either, since she had already promised Ran Xueyi. Anyway, it was just a simple thing. As for what Ran Xueyi was worried about, Janice sighed. Ran Xueyi and she were part of the sentertainment company. But Ran Xueyi was more advanced than them. Having already acted in many movies and drama films, Ran Xueyi certainly didn't act like an amateur, naïve child. However, there was a strange rumor going around the company. A rumor that made Ran Xueyi look like a monster who couldn't separate herself from the film's character.

And Ran Xueyi recently played in a thriller movie where her role got kidnapped. Could it be that she still hasn't moved on from that movie and mixed reality with the fake one? Janice pondered.

"It's our turn to go down." Janice didn't have tto brood over it as she got pushed from behind. ♠♠♠♠♠

Ran Xueyi didn't say a word upon standing at the end of the line. She watched from her vantage point as a car escorted the children, who descended first, out of there. Each of the kids, who lined up according to their ages, hopped into a car. "Ugh, I'm so excited to go home!"

Glancing at the person who had just spoken, Ran Xueyi opened her lips, as if she were about to say something, but in the end, she closed her mouth and looked away.

Home? Where? She had been observing from the boat, and from what she gathered, the place where they were now was an island, not the way home. If it was, where were their parents? Who should have been here to wait and escort them back home? What about the police? The people who should investigate why they had to be trapped inside a crate and stranded by the sea.

Ran Xueyi still wanted to believe that everything she heard last night was just a part of her dream, that she could trust the men who had found them, and that they really wanted to save them. But looking at the situation before her and having her questions unanswered, Ran Xueyi had no one to trust but herself.

"It's almost our turn."

A teenager whispered in front of her. She turned to the side and saw that the car Janice had gone to was already driving away. "Excuse me, I feel a little uncomfortable. Can I go to the restroom?" Ran Xueyi approached the man standing a couple of feet away from them when the others weren't looking. The man looked over at her once and shook his head. "Just endure it and wait until you arrive at your destination." "But I really need to go!" Ran Xueyi fidgeted and clenched her legs tightly. "Please, I don't want to dirty my pants!"

Even after hearing this, the man still wanted to refuse. However, he recognized the face of the girl in front of him. Wasn't this the girl Mister Park has his eyes on?

If he remembered correctly, Mister Park put special attention on her. He glanced at his watch for a second, then finally nodded. "Alright, go ahead. And be quick about it; it will be your line's turn soon!"

"Thank you!" Ran Xueyi turned around and ran inside the yacht. She really looked like she was in a hurry. However, as soon as she was out of their sights and no one was around, Ran Xueyi, who was a few steps away from the restroom, made a U-turn and dashed towards the side of the yacht. Then, without hesitation, she jumped off the yacht, submerged in the sea, and swam away. ♥♥♥
