Chapter 135: Chapter 135: Want to Hear Her Voice

After getting on the bus, she turned off her cellphone and didn’t know whether Rong Shaoze had tried to call her.

Just as she turned it on, not even a minute passed before the cellphone started ringing.

It was Rong Shaoze calling.

Lin Xinlan secretly felt relieved, thankfully she had turned on her phone, otherwise, it would have been bad if he noticed something.

Answering the call, she asked indifferently, "Hello, what’s up?"

"Why did you just turn on your phone now?!" Rong Shaoze demanded right off the bat, his tone edged with some anger and impatience.

He had called her several times, but it was always off. If this call hadn’t gone through, he would have directly called the travel agency to get the guide’s number.

"My phone was out of battery, I just realized it now," Lin Xinlan said indifferently, her tone devoid of any hint of apology.

Rong Shaoze wanted to get angry but didn’t know what to say, so he could only ask irritably, "How was your day today?!"

"Haven’t really done anything today. After getting off the plane, we went to eat, then just walked around, and when we got tired, we went back to the hotel to rest." She had looked at the travel itinerary; the first day was just casual strolling around town with no sightseeing included.

Rong Shaoze thought she was really out having fun and didn’t suspect anything.

"So are you going to sleep now?" With nothing else to say, he had to ask casually.

In truth, he didn’t even know why he had called her.

He simply knew that when he got home, suddenly realizing that someone was missing, he felt a strange sensation. So, he wanted to talk to her on the phone, just to hear her voice.

"Yeah, about to sleep, is there anything else? If not, I’m going to hang up."

"I... no, nothing. Go to sleep, bye." Rong Shaoze ended the call, thinking he would give her a surprise tomorrow instead.

He had bought a plane ticket for tomorrow morning to Hainan Island, and he had also figured out which hotel Lin Xinlan and her group were staying at.

He would go there directly tomorrow, curious about the expression she would have upon seeing him.

Thinking about her astonished look made him chuckle, filled with a bit of anticipation.

Lin Xinlan had no idea about his plans. After hanging up the phone, she walked into the living room and happened to encounter her mother, who was also heading to the bathroom.

"Xinlan, why haven’t you gone to sleep yet? Were you on the phone?" Lin’s mother asked with sharp eyes, noticing the cellphone in her hand, puzzled.

She smiled faintly and said, "No, just played a game while I was in the bathroom."

Lin’s mother chuckled, "To be your age and still play games. Go to bed now, you must be dead tired today."

"Mom, you should go to sleep early too."

"Yes, I know."

When she returned to the bedroom and saw Xiaocong still sleeping soundly, she couldn’t help but smile.

Xiaocong never kicked the covers while sleeping, always nestled in one spot, truly a well-behaved child that warmed the heart.

Sleeping at home, Lin Xinlan had a very sound sleep, continuing to sleep deeply until dawn broke before she opened her eyes.

At first glance, she saw Xiaocong sitting on the bed, head tilted. He was facing her, holding her hand in his little one, smiling gently, quietly not waking her.

Lin Xinlan quietly propped herself up and suddenly pounced on him in bed, making a scary sound, "I’m the big bad wolf, I’m going to eat you up!"

Xiaocong was first startled, then burst into laughter, hugging her, "I’m the little grey wolf, don’t eat me, Mommy."

He was pretty smart, knowing how to act on the spot.

"Is that so, let me check." Lin Xinlan sniffed all over him and then finally nodded her head contentedly.
