Chapter 1021 Falling in love with you a little bit
Mao'er's heart suddenly shook when she saw Chen Jie's pure smile. Unknowingly, she seemed to have really fallen in love with Chen Jie.
It seemed that as long as she was around Chen Jie, she would feel safe enough. She didn't know if this feeling was considered love.
"Why don't you speak?
Scared by me?
Um?"
Chen Jie lowered his voice and looked at Mao'er's confused look. Chen Jie subconsciously reached out his hand and pinched Mao'er's face gently.
Soft, tender, and so comfortable.
"Chen Jie, why do I feel like I'm a little in love with you?"
Mao'er suddenly looked at Chen Jie with a serious face, his tone was full of doubts, and his face also had a confused look, which was completely different from the usual Mao'er.
Chen Jie was also shocked by Mao'er's words. He just made a casual joke just to tease Mao'er.
He expected to see Mao'er blushing and shy, but he didn't know that Mao'er didn't follow the routine and actually asked him a question, which made him a little embarrassed.
For a moment, Chen Jie's hand rested stiffly on Mao'er's face, with a look of astonishment on his face.
I don’t know what expression to use to answer the cat’s words.
"Captain, Cat, are you two okay?"
Chen Yanyan was a little anxious up there, because it was too dark and she couldn't see clearly what was going on below, so she could only use sounds to identify the direction.
But the captain and Mao'er suddenly became quiet, and she couldn't hear anything except the sound of some running water.
Fear swept through Chen Yanyan's body again, causing Chen Yanyan to panic.
"We... are fine. We are looking for a way to get up. You can just sit on it."
Chen Jie retracted his hand, his eyes evasive, like a man who had just done something wrong.
"Pfft, I didn't expect you to have such a cute side. It really surprised me."
The cat raised the corner of his mouth and became happy.
"Are you still laughing at me?
Look how scared you were just now."
Chen Jie said angrily. Looking at the smile on Mao'er's face, Chen Jie felt that he was making a fuss out of a molehill.
Maybe Maoer just made a casual joke, but he took it seriously.
"What I said was not a lie."
Mao'er suddenly looked at Chen Jie seriously, wanting Chen Jie to feel his sincerity.
"Stop messing with me. It's better to find a way out quickly and get out of here."
Chen Jie stood up and walked towards the bridge pier aside, not wanting to continue discussing this embarrassing topic with Mao'er.
"Chen Jie, are you running away?"
Mao'er tilted his head, looking at Chen Jie's stiff back, with a smile on his lips.
I didn't expect Chen Jie to be so innocent and blushing. It seems that he can flirt with her more often in the future to add a bit of bad taste to his boring life.
"Escape from what?
Now that we have found the direction of the bridge, let's go out quickly, we don't know what's going on with Yanyan and Lisa."
Chen Jie said with some worry.
Thinking of Yanyan and Lisa, Chen Jie became a little anxious. He hadn't gone back for a day and a night, and he didn't know if those two girls would be scared.
"It turns out it was for someone else. I thought you wanted to take me out with you."
Mao'er said with a disappointed look on his face, and his mood became a little heavy, not as happy as before.
"I want to take you all out safely and I won't leave you alone."
Chen Jie noticed the loneliness in Mao'er's tone, turned around and glanced at Mao'er.
"Whatever, I'm going to die anyway, it doesn't matter if I live or not."
Mao'er said carelessly, with a somewhat negative expression, and his whole body was as wilted as a flower beaten by frost.
When Chen Jie heard what Mao'er said, he turned around angrily, walked straight in front of Mao'er, stretched out his hand, put it on Mao'er's shoulder, and pressed Mao'er's shoulder slightly hard.
"What to do?
Are you trying to force yourself on me?"
Mao'er said in an astonishing way. As soon as he finished speaking, Mao'er could clearly see Chen Jie's red face, but it was a little less obvious because of the backlight.
But cats are specially trained people, and their sight is better than that of ordinary people. Even at night, they can see a little clearer than normal people.
"Cat, you said that you owe me two lives, so your current life belongs to me. Without my permission, I won't allow you to have any accidents, or even harm your own name. Listen clearly.
?"
Chen Jie said with a serious face, wanting the cat to feel his anger.
"So you are so manly when you get angry."
After Mao'er finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and touched Chen Jie's lips. The soft feeling shocked both of them, as if they had been shocked.
Chen Jie seemed to have been electrocuted. He was so frightened that he immediately stood up and walked to the side, pretending that nothing was wrong.
"Captain, Cat, have you found a way to come up?
Otherwise, just follow the rope up?"
Chen Yanyan was waiting anxiously above, wishing she could rush down and take Chen Jie up, but she found that she didn't have the ability at all...
"Don't worry, Yanyan, there seems to be writing on this bridge pier, maybe it can open the mechanism here."
Chen Jie walked to the bridge pier and reached out to touch the carvings on the bridge pier, feeling a little strange.
Chen Yanyan listened to Chen Jie's words and did not dare to say anything more. She sat quietly on the bridge, anxiously waiting for Chen Jie's answer.
After hearing Chen Jie's words, Mao'er also stood up and walked towards Chen Jie.
"Can you figure out what the word is?"
Cat also stretched out his hand and felt the fonts on the bridge piers.
"No, I don't recognize this font. It should be Oracle."
Chen Jie shook his head, thinking that the cat might not be able to see his movements, so he spoke quickly.
Cat touched it carefully and felt the lines on the bridge piers.
"This doesn't seem to be an Oracle. Come and touch my side."
The cat said something strange, and reached out to pat Chen Jie on the side. But as soon as the cat patted twice, he heard a bang, as if something fell to the ground, and there were splashes of water.
, fell on the cat's lap.
"what sound?"
Chen Jie turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound source, his expression serious, and he instantly became alert.
"It seems like something has fallen. Let me take a look."
The cat was also startled. It didn't react when it saw the things on the ground. Then it gained the courage to squat down and touch the things on the ground.
Chen Jie's attention was always on the cat. He held his breath and listened carefully to the cat's movements.
"Ah...it turned out to be a mummy. I was shocked."
Mao'er said angrily, if she had known it was a mummy, why would she touch it with her hands? She directly touched the ribs of the mummy and was shocked.
"Why are there mummies near this bridge pier?
It’s really strange.”
Chen Jie thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out the reason.
