Chapter 939: Chapter 939: The Intention to Leave is Very Clear

Auntie is very talkative. While persuading Lin Xinlan to eat, she kept talking non-stop.

Lin Xinlan couldn’t eat, but faced with Auntie’s enthusiasm, she couldn’t refuse.

She had no choice but to hold the bowl and eat slowly.

Auntie told her many things about the island.

Turns out, she is Xuanyuan Wushuang’s nanny; she watched Wushuang grow up.

To her, Wushuang is like her own daughter.

Upon knowing she was coming, Wushuang specially arranged for her to take care of her.

This shows that Wushuang has no hostility towards her, and even somewhat welcomes her.

Auntie said she would come over daily, morning, noon, and night, to bring her food, and help clean up.

If there’s anything she needs, just call her.

She lives nearby, only five minutes’ walk from here.

Auntie said a lot more, but Lin Xinlan listened in a daze, not knowing how much she absorbed.

Afterward, when she finished eating, Auntie cleaned up and left.

Lin Xinlan continued to sit in the living room, without any intention of touring the villa.

She didn’t want to stay; she wanted to leave.

This place wasn’t her home; staying here felt like being an unwelcome outsider.

But Xu Yao had already left; there was no one to take her away.

Perhaps she should ask Xuanyuan Wushuang to arrange someone to send her away.

Lin Xinlan picked up the phone Rong Shaoze had left behind, found Wushuang’s number, and tried dialing.

The phone rang twice before it was answered.

“Hello, is it Miss Lin?” Wushuang asked amicably as soon as she spoke.

Hearing her voice, Lin Xinlan felt less tense and awkward.

“Miss Xuanyuan, hello,” she spoke directly, “Could you send someone to take me away? I want to return to Phoenix Island, I don’t want to stay here.”

Her intention to leave was clear, leaving no room for persuasion.

Wushuang smiled slightly, her voice pleasant: “Miss Lin, since you’re already here, why not stay for a while? If you leave, Mr. Rong will be very upset.”

She actually referred to Rong Shaoze as Mr. Rong, not sure if she intended Lin Xinlan to hear it…

After pausing, Wushuang added: “Also, I want you to stay here as my guest, I hope you’ll oblige.”

Lin Xinlan frowned slightly, did this mean she wouldn’t help her leave?

“Miss Xuanyuan, I really want to leave, I don’t want to stay here!”

“Miss Lin, I’m currently brewing medicine, I don’t have a spare moment right now. I’ll definitely visit you when I’m free in two days. If you have needs, just tell Auntie, she’ll take good care of you. That’s all, I’m hanging up now, goodbye.”

Xuanyuan Wushuang quickly hung up, with no intention of helping her leave.

Lin Xinlan fretted over the phone, lacking the courage to call her again.

She swallowed her pride and dialed Rong Shaoze’s number, but no one answered.

Didn’t Rong Shaoze say she could call him if anything happened?

But when she called him, he didn’t answer…

Lin Xinlan felt extremely agitated, she discarded the phone and walked out of the villa alone.

She wanted to find Rong Shaoze, and, no matter what, insist he send her away.

Upon leaving the villa, Lin Xinlan felt lost at once.

The houses here all looked the same, and each one was quite far apart; where exactly should she go to find Rong Shaoze?

On the road, occasionally cars passed by, or people walked by.

But she didn’t recognize anyone, their gaze upon her was very unfamiliar, it was clear she was not from the island.
