Chapter 560: Su Ci is on the Island

Translator: _Min_ |

Lin Chen looked worried and said with a pang of guilt, “Suisui, this is all my fault. If I hadn’t insisted on holding Aad’s birthday banquet at your place, you wouldn’t have been so tired.”

Wang Sui shook her head gently, indicating it was okay, then added with concern, “Don’t say that. Aad would definitely be angry if she heard this.”

Lin Chen snorted coldly, “That child has always been thoughtless. There’s no need to care about her opinion!”

A smile curled at the corners of Wang Sui’s mouth as she provocatively looked towards Aad.

Aad was lost in her own thoughts, continually recalling the feelings Su Ting had described, with no time to pay attention to Wang Sui and Lin Chen.

Finding no interest, Wang Sui withdrew her gaze. Once the visitors had left her home, she eagerly took out her phone and listened over and over to the mechanical voice, her smile growing sweeter by the second.

She suddenly realized something was amiss upon seeing the unfamiliar sender.

Was this really a message from him?

If it was, why didn’t he use his own number to send her the message, instead using a stranger’s?

Feeling puzzled, Wang Sui decided to call the number she knew by heart.

Gu Dai looked at the location from where Wang Sui had dialed, confusion evident on her face, “Villa 402 at the suburban of the Capital? Who lives there?”

Su Ting frowned slightly, remembering something he had just discovered, and said softly, “Daidai, I found out that my big brother has been there.”

Gu Dai inquired, “Su Ci?”

Su Ting nodded, showing a photo sent by her subordinate to Gu Dai, and whispered, “I also found out that my big brother is now on the island.”

Gu Dai, looking at the image of Su Ci entering the suburban villa 402, was flooded with thoughts, but confusion prevailed, “Why would Su Ci go to the suburban villa, and why is he here? What’s his relationship with Wang Sui?”

Su Ting shook his head gently, admitting he hadn’t found that out yet and was equally clueless.

From a distance, Aad spotted Gu Dai and Su Ting hiding around a corner, murmuring in confusion, “What are they doing?”

Lin Chen replied coldly, “What good can the lower class do? I’ll have the guards throw them out now!”

Aad’s expression darkened, “If you drive away my friends, I’ll have someone kill Wang Sui tonight!”

Lin Chen trembled with rage, gritting his teeth, “You’re really something, even daring to speak of killing your future stepmother!”

Taking a deep breath to calm himself, he said, “These two are now on our territory. I’ll keep an eye on them here. If I see them breaking the law, they’ll be thrown into the prison immediately.”

Aad, though not long acquainted with Gu Dai and Su Ting, felt instinctively that they would not do anything wrong. She affirmed to Lin Chen, “Alright, I’ll stay here with you to watch.”

After several unsuccessful attempts, Wang Sui received another message, still in the familiar mechanical tone, “Come to the secret room; I have something important to ask you.”

Wang Sui’s eyes momentarily clouded before she regained clarity and hurriedly sent a voice message, “Why aren’t you answering my calls?”

Gu Dai didn’t respond to Wang Sui, merely urging her to hurry to the secret room.

Listening to the impatient tone, Wang Sui felt reassured, chuckling softly,

“Still the familiar tone. I was overthinking it.”

He had always been sparing with words with her, so if the person on the other end had started explaining, that would have been unusual for Wang Sui.

Seeing Wang Sui entering the secret room through the monitor, Gu Dai asked, “What’s your relationship with Lin Chen? Have you betrayed me?”

Hearing the familiar mechanical voice, Wang Sui panicked and quickly explained, “No, it’s not what you think. I have nothing to do with Lin Chen. I don’t like him at all. I approached him only to use his power to help you, you know I only like you.”

A dark light flashed in Gu Dai’s eyes.

Wang Sui was working for the man behind the mechanical voice, which meant her parents might have been locked up here.

Realizing this, Gu Dai quickly sorted through her thoughts, preparing to continue her interrogation.

Facing the silence, Wang Sui felt increasingly lost until her eyes lit up, filling with tears, her voice trembling with emotion, “Are you jealous? Have you finally seen my heart and fallen for me? Don’t be angry, I promise I only like you!”
