The cat, who is naturally sensitive to blood, sniffed the smell in the air carefully and looked at Chen Jie with a puzzled look. When he saw Chen Jie, his eyes clearly flickered.
This means that Chen Jie seemed to be lying just now.
Mao'er's expression turned cold, and he raised his legs and walked towards Chen Jie.
"Chen Jie, are you hiding something from me?"
Mao'er opened her cold eyes and looked at Chen Jie with determination in her eyes, as if she had seen through Chen Jie's little thoughts.
"You misunderstood. It was just a fight between animals and it has nothing to do with me."
Chen Jie pointed at the smell behind him and looked at the cat innocently.
The cat looked behind Chen Jie and saw nothing. The unbelieving cat raised its legs and walked forward for a short distance. When it saw a hyena nibbling on something not far away, it frowned.
"Those are animal fights, they have nothing to do with me."
Chen Jie saw the confused look on the cat's face and quickly explained, pretending not to care and lowering the cat's vigilance.
Sure enough, when Mao'er heard Chen Jie's words, she withdrew her gaze and looked at Chen Jie, but at this moment, Chen Yanyan was still in Chen Jie's arms and refused to come out. Cat's eyes flashed with displeasure.
"Okay, Yanyan, we should discuss the next step."
Chen Jie reached out and patted Chen Yanyan's arm gently, signaling Chen Yanyan to get up from his arms.
Chen Yanyan curled her lips and stood up straight, reluctant to stand up. However, she held onto Chen Jie's arm tightly and refused to let go, like an insecure child.
When Chen Jie saw this, he didn't withdraw his arm anymore, he just looked at Lisa and Lily Xiao.
"You can come out and get some air. I'm sorry that I'm letting you live here temporarily."
Chen Jie sighed, feeling as if he was very sorry for these four girls.
"Captain, what are you talking about! It's us who have dragged you down, and thank you for your persistence, otherwise we might have died long ago."
Xiao Baihe was the first to stand up and speak for Chen Jie.
They are grateful to the captain!
"That's right, Captain, without you, we can't survive at all."
Chen Yanyan also quickly followed suit, saying that as long as it was a compliment to Chen Jie, she would agree with it.
Lisa pursed her lips and stared straight at Chen Jie. Although she didn't speak, her expression told Chen Jie that she recognized Chen Jie very much.
"You guys are so greasy."
Mao'er curled her lips and looked at the three girls like licking dogs, praising Chen Jie here. She felt a little blocked and stopped talking, too lazy to look at the three women.
"You are really an ungrateful person. If the captain hadn't saved you, you would have been reduced to nothing, and now you are still making sarcastic remarks?"
Chen Yanyan was the first to jump out and glared at Mao'er angrily.
"Cat, you seem to have a problem with us?"
Lisa also turned cold and stared at the cat with an unhappy expression.
"If you think so, there's nothing I can do about it."
Mao'er shrugged, looking indifferent, and immediately made Chen Yanyan and Lisa angry.
"Captain, don't you care about her appearance?"
Chen Yanyan accused Mao'er and looked at Chen Jie with dissatisfaction, as if she was waiting for Chen Jie to give her justice.
"Yanyan, now is not the time for internal strife. We are a team and we need to unite, okay?
calm down?"
Chen Jie stretched out his hands and grabbed Chen Yanyan's shoulders, asking Chen Yanyan to calm down and stop making trouble.
The scene just now left a shadow on Chen Jie's mind, which he still can't accept, but Chen Yanyan is still here.
"Captain, you have changed, you were not like this before!"
Chen Yanyan looked at Chen Jie aggrievedly, her eyes instantly filled with tears, and her body was twitching, as if she was suppressing something.
"Yanyan, now is really not the time to make trouble. The danger is very close to us. At this time, we must work together to find a safe place and live a good life."
Chen Jie said earnestly, he was no longer in the mood to pay attention to the fight between women.
"Captain..." Chen Yanyan noticed that Chen Jie was a little out of control. She sniffed and did not dare to continue to seek death, lest she really angered the captain.
Lisa was shocked when she saw Chen Jie's appearance. Chen Jie rarely showed bad temper in front of them, but now Chen Jie's appearance really scared them.
"Okay, okay, it's not a big deal. Let's talk about the more important things."
Xiao Baihe quickly came out to smooth things over. Seeing Chen Yanyan being frightened, Xiao Baihe also felt a little embarrassed.
Chen Yanyan lowered her head, feeling extremely angry. She always felt that the reason why the captain became like this was because he was completely brainwashed by Mao'er.
Chen Jie also realized that he might have acted a little too fiercely just now, and his face suddenly showed embarrassment.
"I'm sorry, I just lost my temper."
Chen Jie pursed his lips and looked at the girls with an apologetic look.
"Captain, it's all our ignorance that made you angry."
Chen Yanyan looked at Chen Jie with a flattering look on her face, but her eyes went straight to Mao'er, thinking that Mao'er would also apologize to Chen Jie.
Unexpectedly, the cat was just leaning on the big tree nearby, playing leisurely with the dog's tail grass in his hand, and did not even notice the situation in front of him.
Chen Yanyan was immediately furious, feeling that Mao'er was a heartless woman who wasted the captain's kindness to her.
"This matter is over, and no one should mention it again in the future."
Chen Jie looked at the four girls with a serious face, warning in his eyes.
The three girls nodded in unison, but Mao'er looked indifferent.
Boom boom boom
Suddenly there was muffled thunder in the sky. Chen Jie raised his head and saw that the sky that was clear just a moment ago suddenly turned gray.
"It seems that we will spend today in the ancient tomb."
Chen Jie gave a wry smile and originally planned to take everyone away quickly, but unexpectedly, the weather was not kind and it started to rain heavily.
"This is all God's will."
The cat said calmly and looked subconsciously in the direction of the hyenas.
The next second, the cat's expression became a little serious. Although these hyenas had eaten away the meat, they left a lot of bones behind. Looking at the bones, it was clearly a human figure.
"Hurry in, it's raining heavily."
Just as Chen Jie was about to get more firewood to go in, the heavy rain suddenly fell. He had no time to clean up, so Chen Jie grabbed Mao'er's wrist and walked towards the ancient tomb.
Mao'er was observing the pile of blood-stained bones when he felt his body being pulled hard. When he turned around, he saw Chen Jie looking at him with a complicated expression.
"Go in quickly, don't think about anything now."
Chen Jie lowered his voice and looked at Mao'er.
"good."
The cat said hello almost instinctively, raised its legs and ran in after Chen Jie.
