Cat, believe me, no matter what happens, I will never leave you, ever!"
Chen Jie hugged Mao'er tightly and said seriously.
"Chen Jie!"
After listening to Chen Jie's words, Mao'er's voice became excited, and tears rolled down, sliding across Chen Jie's chest.
Chen Jie knew that Mao'er could never forget him in this life, and he could only try his best to make up for what he owed Mao'er.
What will the future look like?
He didn't know that all he could do now was try his best to warm the cat and make it become a normal person instead of an indifferent killing machine.
Chen Jie gently stroked the cat's shiny black hair, his eyes as gentle as water.
"Cat, promise me something, okay?"
After hearing Chen Jie's words, Mao'er looked up at Chen Jie, waiting for him to continue.
"Promise me that no matter what happens, you must live strong. Even if you are the only one left, you are not allowed to die."
The cat's eyelashes trembled slightly, and crystal clear tears fell down from the corners of its eyes.
"Chen Jie, you bastard, wuwu..." Mao'er finally couldn't bear the sadness in her heart and began to cry.
How could she not understand what Chen Jie meant?
He hopes that he can find his own lover and have his own life...
But how can she have that kind of life?
"Be good, Mao'er, I know you are a good girl..." Chen Jie also did not expect that Mao'er, who has always been strong and used to protect himself with indifference, would cry in front of him.
"Okay, Chen Jie, do you have to make me cry to be happy?"
Cat stood up straight and said in a feigned annoyance.
"Of course not..." Chen Jie looked at Mao'er nervously. Although he couldn't see anything in the dark place, Chen Jie could feel Mao'er's attachment to him.
"Then don't say it."
Mao'er sniffed and looked at Chen Jie with a sob.
"Okay, no more talking! Let's keep moving forward, okay?"
Chen Jie responded with a smile, intending to change the topic.
"Well, let's go!"
Cat nodded and responded.
Listening to the cat's coquettish voice, Chen Jie felt his whole body tingle, and an indescribable feeling surged into his heart.
"Ahem, let's go! Follow me."
After saying that, Chen Jie turned around and walked forward.
The two of them walked along the road ahead in the dark for a while, when Chen Jie suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Hearing Chen Jie's footsteps suddenly stop, Mao'er asked in confusion.
"Shh..." Chen Jie made a silencing gesture to signal the cat to be quieter.
Mao'er glanced at Chen Jie and then kept silent.
At this moment, Chen Jie had bent down and put his ear close to the ground.
After a while, Chen Jie stood up slowly, and Mao'er looked at Chen Jie.
"Cat, listen, there is movement!"
"What?"
After hearing Chen Jie's words, the cat also put its ears to the ground and listened carefully.
"Rustling... rustling..." Upon hearing the sound, the cat's eyes suddenly opened wide, unable to hide the look of horror on his face.
"There should be snakes and other animals around here, let's be careful! This cave is so dark, it's very bad for us."
Chen Jie said calmly.
"Okay, I understand."
Mao'er nodded and realized the seriousness of the matter. He followed Chen Jie and walked more slowly.
After walking for a while, Chen Jie smelled a fishy smell and stopped quickly.
"Cat, please step back first and don't touch things."
Chen Jie's deep voice came out.
After hearing this, Mao'er slowly returned to Chen Jie and asked doubtfully: "What's wrong?"
"This place seems a little strange. Let's be careful. I always feel like there is something nearby."
Chen Jie observed his surroundings vigilantly.
As soon as Chen Jie finished speaking, he felt his right arm being scratched, and then he heard the cat's slightly panicked exclamation.
"ah!"
Hearing Mao'er's exclamation, Chen Jie turned his head sharply and saw nothing but darkness. Chen Jie quickly reached out and grabbed Mao'er's arm.
"What's wrong?
Cat?"
Chen Jie looked at Mao'er nervously, his heart tightening.
"No, it's okay! A bug just fell on me and scared me."
Mao'er's tone was full of panic and he spoke with lingering fear.
"Otherwise, you go ahead?"
Chen Jie felt Mao'er's nervousness and planned to let Mao'er go ahead.
Mao'er shook his head and suddenly thought that Chen Jie might not be able to see it, so he quickly spoke.
"You should be in front, I might have been too nervous just now."
Mao'er said with some embarrassment, feeling that she was embarrassed in front of Chen Jie.
"Well, I'll go slower this time."
Chen Jie responded, walking forward with full pace.
Mao'er reached out and pinched the corner of Chen Jie's clothes, and followed Chen Jie obediently. She felt that Chen Jie was in front of her, so she had nothing to fear.
This feeling of dependence was something she had never felt before.
"Cat, the exit is ahead, and I saw some bright lights."
Chen Jie said excitedly, feeling like he saw hope.
"Is everything done here?
How did the female ghost make the sound?"
Mao'er's tone was full of disappointment.
Although they explored here, they still didn't find the answer they wanted, and she still felt a little regretful.
"Don't worry, let's take a look, maybe there is another way."
Chen Jie comforted the cat.
Mao'er pursed her lips, said nothing, and followed Chen Jie silently.
A turn gave them hope. Looking at the beam of light in front of them, Chen Jie had a smile on his face.
"Let's go out first and then come back to study the female ghost here..."
Before Chen Jie finished speaking, he heard several gunshots.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Chen Jie subconsciously reached out and grabbed the cat's body, protecting the cat behind him.
Mao'er was moved by Chen Jie's actions. She didn't expect that Chen Jie would protect her like this.
"Shh, don't be afraid, I'm going to check on the situation."
After Chen Jie finished speaking, he let go of Mao'er's body and walked towards the beam port.
When he walked forward, Chen Jie discovered that there should be a mechanism here, and there were a lot of garbage, branches and other things around.
It seems that someone must have lived here, and there are signs of fire.
"Old woman, you are going to die!"
There was a burst of curses, and Chen Jie quietly looked toward the beam opening and saw four pirates pointing guns at an old woman and a woman.
The woman's face was covered with dirt, and she looked dark, so her appearance could not be clearly seen, but her eyes were big and bright. At a glance, you could tell that this woman was definitely a beauty.
"Please, let us both go..." The old woman knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to the pirates, praying that the pirates would let her go.
"Go away, old woman..." The pirate kicked the old woman...
