Chi Jiao shook her head in confusion. “I’m not sure either, but I can feel something urging me. Brother Quan, I want to go and take a look.”
“Let’s go take a look, then. We don’t know where to start looking, anyway. Why don’t we just head in the direction that Jiaojiao wants to go and see what is there first?” Pei Yao suggested thoughtfully.
Looking at Chi Jiao’s expression and state, Quan Jue couldn’t help feeling worried. “Are you sure you’re fine?”
“Yes, Brother Quan, I’m sure. I want to take a look.” Chi Jiao insisted.
Seeing how serious she was, Quan Jue had no choice but to nod in agreement. “Alright, we’ll follow you. Stop if you can’t hold on anymore. Don’t force yourself.”
“Alright.” Chi Jiao smiled sweetly and agreed.
The five of them set off and followed Chi Jiao.
They had just entered Mount Wu when Chi Jiao clearly sensed a faint aura that made her feel uneasy.
Chi Jiao could vaguely feel that she was connected to something in the depths of the mountain. She just had to follow this aura and she would be able to find what she was looking for.
Chi Jiao didn’t stop at all. She was urged on by that urgent feeling in her heart to continue walking forward.
Chi Jiao stepped on a pile of loose rocks and slipped, nearly spraining her ankle.
“Be careful.” Fortunately, Quan Jue had been watching her closely. When he saw Chi Jiao slip, he quickly reached out and grabbed her arm.
“Thank you, Brother Quan.” Chi Jiao smiled, revealing her adorable eyeteeth.
He reached out and pinched her soft little face, saying in a serious tone, “Don’t be so eager. You’ve been walking non-stop the entire way and your legs must be feeling sore. Come here, I’ll carry you.”
The road to Mount Wu was rugged and difficult to traverse. Chi Jiao couldn’t bear to let Quan Jue carry her weight. She quickly shook her head and said, “Brother Quan, we’re not in a hurry. I’m a little tired and want to stop and rest.”
Seeing that Chi Jiao was quite insistent, Quan Jue didn’t try to object. He nodded. “Alright, we’ll rest for a while before continuing.”
When Beitang Lie saw Quan Jue holding Chi Jiao’s small hand and sitting down on a big rock by the roadside to rest, he couldn’t help smiling at Pei Yao, who was beside him. “Yaoyao, look, Young Master Quan is the only one who has the ability to calm Boss down.”
Everyone could tell that Chi Jiao had been very anxious this entire trek. It was all thanks to Quan Jue’s help that she had finally calmed down. Otherwise, everyone was worried about Chi Jiao hurting herself from her overeagerness.
“Some things don’t need to be spoken out loud. It’s good enough that we know in our hearts.” Pei Yao hurriedly tugged at his arm, shooting looks at him to try and stop him from talking.
At first, Beitang Lie did not quite understand what she meant. It was only when he noticed Huo Chen that he suddenly came to his senses. He hurriedly cleared his throat and pretended as if nothing had happened.
No one was stupid. Huo Chen’s feelings for Chi Jiao were obvious, but it was just not convenient for them to gossip.
Huo Chen didn’t even hear their words. All his attention was on Chi Jiao and Quan Jue, who were not far away.. Watching the two of them being so lovey-dovey, he felt as if his heart had been ruthlessly struck by a wave of helplessness.
