Mao'er pretended to be relaxed and looked at Chen Jie, feeling very nervous inside.
"So you don't need to feel any guilt. I want you to truly integrate into the team and treat it as a vacation for yourself and leave a good memory."
Chen Jie said softly. Seeing the cat living very nervously every day, Chen Jie couldn't bear it.
The cat didn't speak, just turned his head, looked at the clear sky, and spoke lightly.
"We are not the same kind of people, so there is no point in forcing them to be crowded together."
"As long as you work hard, you can definitely do it! The three of them are not as difficult as you think."
Chen Jie knew that Mao'er had always been a very proud person, and this was what he admired about Mao'er.
"Let's talk about it again! Find the person first, then it's true."
Mao'er raised the corners of her lips and looked at Chen Jie.
"Hey, you're right. Get some rest early. We'll have to continue searching tomorrow."
Chen Jie did not continue this topic, but looked at Mao'er with a smile.
"I'm going to bed."
The cat was not polite, got up and walked towards the cave.
Chen Jie stood guard at the entrance of the cave, adding more firewood from time to time. Looking at the bright moon in the sky, Chen Jie fell into deep thought.
Mao'er lay on the ground, looking at Chen Jie's arrogant back, with a myriad of thoughts in his mind.
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
…
At the end of the day, the two of them had a simple meal of grilled fish and continued on their way.
At this time, the mood of the two of them was heavier than yesterday, especially Chen Jie, who always looked distracted, which made people feel distressed.
"Chen Jie."
Mao'er couldn't stand the atmosphere and shouted at Chen Jie's back.
Chen Jie seemed to have not heard anything and kept walking forward.
"Chen Jie!"
Mao'er shouted loudly, and seeing Chen Jie still walking forward with his head down, Mao'er angrily knelt down, picked up the stones on the ground, and threw them towards Chen Jie's back.
Chen Jie was in pain and turned his head, only to see the cat staring at him angrily. Chen Jie looked at the cat with a blank look on his face.
"What's wrong?
Are you feeling unwell?"
Chen Jie saw the cat's angry expression and hurriedly walked back, thinking that the cat was injured.
"Chen Jie, can you stop walking so fast?
My feet hurt."
Mao'er pouted and looked at Chen Jie like a little girl.
"Where does it hurt?
Are you injured?"
When Chen Jie heard the cat complaining about pain, he quickly squatted down and reached out to scratch the cat's feet.
"I, I'm fine, I just walked too fast. Can you please slow down?"
Mao'er retracted her foot and looked at Chen Jie awkwardly. She just wanted to attract Chen Jie's attention, not that her foot really hurt.
"If you're tired, just take a rest."
Chen Jie raised his head and looked at Mao'er.
Mao'er shook his head and put a hand on Chen Jie's shoulder.
"how?"
Chen Jie looked at Mao'er in confusion.
"Chen Jie, don't tighten yourself so much, I'm worried about your body."
Mao'er said with a worried look on her face. Seeing Chen Jie not cherishing her body so much, she felt a little uncomfortable.
"Don't worry, I'm not that fragile."
Chen Jie curled his lips and stood up. He didn't expect Mao'er to care about him so much.
"Chen Jie, have you ever thought about it, maybe there is a possibility..." Mao'er tried to persuade Chen Jie, but was interrupted sharply by Chen Jie.
"Don't worry, I will definitely find them. No one will be absent without excuse."
Chen Jie's tone was full of determination.
"I hope so, keep going."
Mao'er saw Chen Jie's stubborn look and really didn't know what to say.
"Cat, why don't you wait for me in the cave?
Will they come back to you when I find them?"
Chen Jie knew that it was really difficult for a woman to consume her physical strength like this.
"What nonsense are you talking about?
Are you going to abandon me?"
Mao'er frowned and looked at Chen Jie.
"Absolutely not, I'm just worried that your body won't be able to bear it."
Chen Jie twitched his lips in embarrassment. Seeing the cat staring at him, Chen Jie felt a little uncomfortable.
He always holds the cat back.
"Don't worry, my physical fitness is very strong. I can walk for seven days and seven nights without any problem."
Cat said proudly.
She is someone who has undergone special training.
Chen Jie smiled and said nothing. He knew that Mao'er was trying to show off his strength, and he just needed to cooperate.
The two of them continued on their way until the afternoon, and finally reached the place where Bai Fan was found. Facing the familiar place in front of them, the two of them were coping with their disappointment.
"Now how to do?
What are your plans?"
Mao'er looked at Chen Jie worriedly. She knew that Chen Jie must be desperate at this time.
"Cat, where do you think they will go?"
Chen Jie was also helpless at this time. Looking at the empty surroundings in front of him, Chen Jie's heart kept sinking.
There were so many people who couldn't go too far, and they couldn't disappear for no reason. He had been looking for them for two days and couldn't find them.
There may be a possibility of disaster.
But Chen Jie didn't dare to continue thinking. He was really afraid that his idea was right.
Thinking of the innocent faces of Chen Yanyan and the others, Chen Jie felt the tip of his nose sore and his eyes turned red.
"Chen Jie, you won't give up, right! If we don't find them, there is still hope. At worst, we turn this desert island upside down. I still don't believe that we won't find the three of them."
Mao'er saw Chen Jie's eyes were red and quickly spoke out to comfort him.
"Don't worry, I will never give up. No matter where they go, I will find them."
Chen Jie felt extremely regretful at this time and had brought Bai Fan and Wang Qiang into the team.
Without the two of them, he would feel more at ease.
"Chen Jie, do you see a figure over there?"
Mao'er suddenly reached out and pulled Chen Jie's arm, pointing to a location not far below.
Chen Jie looked along the position of Mao'er's finger, but because it was too far away, he couldn't see clearly.
It wasn't until the figures of the two people moved that Chen Jie saw clearly that they were indeed two people.
"Come on, let's go over and have a look."
Chen Jie was filled with anger at this time and just wanted to find something to do. It was unlucky for these two people to be bumped into by him.
"Aren't you afraid that there are still teams around them?
Wouldn’t it be bad if we just went there so rashly?”
Mao'er was afraid that Chen Jie would act impulsively and wanted to prevent Chen Jie from going over to check.
"Cat, do you still remember what Bai Fan once said?"
Chen Jie suddenly spoke calmly.
"White sail?
Gold mine?”
Mao'er thought that the most important thing Bai Fan had said was probably about mining.
"Yes, the people here should be related to the gold mine. Of course, this is under the premise that Bai Fan is not lying."
Chen Jie said in a solemn tone. Due to the terrain, the people below could not see the situation on Chen Jie's side.
"Do you suspect that they are related to Bai Fan?
Has everyone been caught in the gold mine?"
Mao'er looked at Chen Jie with a puzzled face, and began to have some doubts in his heart.
