Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering Chapter 1967 – Jumping into the River

Bo Cixue did not mind others mentioning that she used to like Ye Jie crazily.

After all, that was the only thing she had held onto for 18 years.

Although there was no result, she did not feel embarrassed.

Everyone liked someone when they were young!

Besides, the person she liked was so outstanding.

So when the man sitting in the corner mentioned her past, she did not feel ashamed.

She only felt angry when she heard him say that Brother Xiaojie’s feelings for her were different now!

Her relationship with Brother Xiaojie was very simple now and she was not going to allow others to misunderstand and defile her.

She did not want Brother Xiaojie to feel awkward and embarrassed.

With his personality, he would never say that he only regarded her as his younger sister in front of outsiders.

After Bo Cixue shouted those words, the cave fell into a strange silence.

The corners of the man’s lips twitched.

Ye Jie’s expression darkened even more.

Seeing this, Bo Cixue was even more angry with that gossipy man.

“If you’re not blind, don’t talk nonsense!” Bo Cixue was too lazy to say anything more and walked away quickly.

None of them spoke anymore. The man in the corner also stood up and helped to find the exit.

Half an hour later, Ye Jie realized that something was wrong at the bottom of the field.

He plucked the weeds and lay on the ground, listening carefully.

Although they were in a dim cave, it was not quiet around them. There was the sound of wind, birds chirping and all kinds of sounds.

Ye Jie listened carefully. There seemed to be the sound of running water underground.

Bo Cixue and the man saw Ye Jie crouching down and came over one after another.

The man also lay on the ground to listen. “There’s water below.”

Bo Cixue thought of the cufflink she had picked up and seemed to have thought of something. She went to the triangular corner and felt around.

When she suddenly realized that there was loose soil, she immediately used her hands to pull it off.

Ye Jie walked over and saw that Bo Cixue’s slender fingers were covered in dirt. “Let me do it.”

Bo Cixue stood by the side and saw Ye Jie taking the dagger and peeling off the loose dirt.

There was indeed a switch hidden inside.

Ye Jie pressed it and the floor where he was lying on opened slowly.

After the floor was opened, there was a gap for people to enter.

The leader immediately jumped down.

Bo Cixue wanted to chase after him, but Ye Jie stopped her. “We don’t know if we can get out. There’s no need to chase him.”

Ye Jie went to the gap, holding a torchlight and looked at Bo Cixue. “Wait for me here first. I’ll go down and take a look.”

Bo Cixue knew that he was thinking about her safety, but she did not want to waste his time.

“I’ll go down with you.”

Seeing Bo Cixue’s insistence, Ye Jie said nothing more.

He bit the flashlight between his lips and went down first, then handed his hand to Bo Cixue and pulled her down.

It was dark below and one could not see the end with just a glance. This unknown environment might be even more dangerous.

But Bo Cixue was not afraid.

She followed after Ye Jie.

The surrounding stones were uneven and stones would fall from time to time. For the two of them to walk down the stone wall, it undoubtedly required a lot of arm strength.

Bo Cixue looked at the man in front of her and said with her eyebrows slightly furrowed, “Brother Xiaojie, there’s still an injury on your arm. Will you hurt the wound if we go on?”

“It’s just a small injury. I’m fine.” He turned back to look at her. Seeing that she was able to keep up with him, his eyes darkened slightly. “Be careful.”

“Oh.”

When there were two to three meters left, Ye Jie jumped down to the bottom of the hole.

He looked at Bo Cixue and reached out his hands. “Jump down.”

Bo Cixue shook her head. “You don’t have to pick me up.”

Before Ye Jie could say anything, Bo Cixue jumped to his side.

She scraped her knee and almost cried from the pain. But she gritted her teeth and did not say anything.

Ye Jie helped her up. “Why are you so stubborn?”

Bo Cixue chuckled. “Don’t underestimate me. I still think this is more exciting than cross-country exploring!”

Ye Jie was speechless.

Bo Cixue looked around. There was a river that seemed to extend beyond the cave. The water was cloudy and she could not see the end at a glance.

Bo Cixue picked up a stone and threw it into the water but it made no sound.

“Brother Xiaojie, the water is really deep.”

Ye Jie hummed. If he was right, the Sikong siblings must have gotten out through the water.

However, it was obvious that this place was a secret passageway that the Sikong family had long repaired. They were able to get out of this place successfully, but outsiders might touch the trap they had set up. If there were any hidden weapons, they would be in danger.

The man who came down first was standing about forty to fifty meters away. The distance between the walls of the cave on both sides was too narrow and the further they went, the narrower it became. It was not wide enough for one person.

Bo Cixue furrowed her eyebrows tightly. “Brother Xiaojie, we definitely won’t be able to get out given the distance.”

Ye Jie looked forward with his dark eyes and lowered his head, smelling the water.

“If I’m right, they should have left along this river.”

Bo Cixue nodded, agreeing with Ye Jie. She suddenly thought of something and looked at the man. “Boss Fang, weren’t you ordered to deal with His Highness? Didn’t they tell you how to get out?”

The man’s expression was dark and he said nothing.

Ye Jie looked at Bo Cixue, a helpless smile on his lips. “You know that he was hired by a foreign company.”

Bo Cixue blinked playfully. “It’s best if he dies from anger.”

Looking at Bo Cixue’s playful expression, Ye Jie curled his fingers and knocked her head. “Naughty.”

He could not remember how long it had been since he saw her being so naughty.

Perhaps, from the moment she went to primary school and started to enter the palace to learn etiquette, she had become no different from a well-bred young lady in the capital in front of him.

When she saw him, she would blush and speak softly.

Bo Cixue touched her head. “Then what should we do now? Shall we swim out along the river?”

Ye Jie nodded with a calm expression. “We have no choice but we have to be careful.”

“Mm, I won’t drag you down.”

Seeing the determination in her eyes, his eyes darkened slightly.

He had not expected Little Apple to be like this.

They did not waste time and after discussing, Ye Jie took out a long belt from his waterproof bag and tied it between Bo Cixue and his wrist.

Bo Cixue knew his intentions. The river was very deep and she did not know what she would meet if she swam forward. In order to prevent them from losing contact, tying them together was the best way.

Ye Jie and Bo Cixue jumped into the river together.

The man standing by the cave wall saw the two of them jump into the river and his expression darkened. After a while, he also jumped in.

Bo Cixue followed behind Ye Jie and when they reached the narrow part of the cave, they held their breaths and dived into the water, swimming forward.
