Chapter 530 Marking
"Let's go out and see what's going on."
"That won't work. It's too dangerous outside right now. If those people are looking for us before our people, wouldn't it be like sending ourselves to their doorsteps if we go out now?"
"That's right. In my opinion, the two of us should go out to get information, and Miss Jiang, you just need to wait here. If we run into those people, they won't make things difficult for us. As long as you are fine, it's our job to protect your safety. Just listen to us and wait here."
"Yeah, you're pregnant now and it's inconvenient for you to do anything. If you go out with us and get discovered by them, then the three of us really won't be able to escape."
Jiang Mubai didn't want to see them risking their lives for him, but what the bodyguards said was true. For the sake of the baby in her belly, Jiang Mubai decided to be selfish for once.
"Okay, then I'll wait here for you to come back. When you go out, you must be careful and pay attention to safety. If you find something wrong, come back immediately and don't get entangled with them. Your own life is the most important, understand?"
"Don't worry, we will definitely remember what Miss Jiang said."
While the bodyguards went out to check the situation, Jiang Mubai was not idle in the cave either. She wandered around the cave to see if she could find anything.
"The cave is indeed too hidden. What if Yunchuan's men come down and don't notice it?"
Jiang Mubai became distressed and didn't know what to do for a moment. She paced back and forth on the ground and accidentally kicked a stone into the grass. When Jiang Mubai saw it, she immediately became aware of it.
"I have to mark those places so Yunchuan can tell at a glance that it was me who put them there."
"The mark can't be too obvious, otherwise those people will find it. It has to be something that only Yunchuan and I know, so that when Yunchuan sees it, he will think it was me who put it there."
After Jiang Mubai thought it through, he started to make it. The position of the mark was not very obvious, and it required Cheng Yunchuan's people to look carefully to see it. Jiang Mubai was afraid that if he made it too obvious, it would attract those people over, which would be bad.
It was getting dark, and it was not safe for Jiang Mubai to be exposed outside for a long time, so he had to go back to the cave to hide. The two bodyguards went out and there was no news. Jiang Mubai didn't know how much time had passed. The less he knew, the more anxious he became, fearing that something might have happened to the two of them.
The two people who went out to gather information split up. One person went ahead to explore the way to see if there was any way to climb up from the bottom of the cliff, and the other person went back in the direction they came from to see if there was anyone looking for them behind.
The two of them were worried that Jiang Mubai would not be safe in the cave alone, so they did not dare to go too far. About an hour after they went out, the person who went to explore the way ahead came back first. Jiang Mubai was startled when she heard some movement at the cave entrance. She was worried that those people saw the mark and found the cave.
Jiang Mubai was worried and quickly found a big rock to hide behind. The bodyguard who came back could not see Jiang Mubai in the cave and became anxious.
"Ms. Jiang? Are you in there?"
Jiang Mubai heard the voice and recognized it as the bodyguard who was protecting her, so she walked out from behind the rocks in the cave.
"I'm here. I just heard some noise outside so I hid."
"Why are you the only one back? Where's the other one?"
"Miss Jiang, let me help you sit down here. After we get out of the cave, we will go our separate ways to check the situation. I will go forward to see if there is a way for us to leave here."
"How's it going? Did you find the way?"
"No, they are all cliffs. We can't climb up from the bottom."
"Don't be discouraged. Maybe you haven't walked far enough. What if there is a road ahead and we haven't reached that place yet?"
"Well, we can only wait for Xiao Qian to come back and see what's going on. I don't dare to go too far because it's getting dark, so I'm coming back now."
"It's okay. You're right to do this. When it gets dark, we won't be able to see the road clearly. If you don't find the way, you'll get lost and can't find the cave when you come back. That would be bad."
Jiang Mubai felt more at ease knowing that he was not alone in the cave with a bodyguard by his side.
But as the sky was getting darker and the other bodyguard hadn't returned yet, Jiang Mubai and the other man couldn't help but get anxious. They were worried that the bodyguard might have had an accident while going out, or had been caught by those people.
"Let's go out and take a look. It's no use waiting here. If Xiao Qian really gets into an accident, we can still bring him back for rescue."
"What if it's not the case? What if Xiao Qian was caught by those people? What if Xiao Qian couldn't resist so many people and was caught by them and the location of our cave was revealed?"
"Then we shouldn't stay here any longer. If someone is brought here, we'll die anyway. We might as well go out and try to have a chance of survival."
The bodyguard was moved by Jiang Mubai's words, "Miss Jiang is right. We are just waiting to die if we sit here. We might as well go out and see what is going on."
The other bodyguard who went out did not encounter any accident and was not caught by those people. He just did not come back in time when it was getting dark. Now it was dark and he could not see clearly and did not find the cave where Jiang Mubai was hiding.
Jiang Mubai and his bodyguard didn't know what was going on, so they had to come out to get information. As a result, they actually ran into them on their way back.
The bodyguard was very cautious when he brought Jiang Mubai out. When he heard the sound, he immediately signaled Jiang Mubai to find a place to hide and not make any noise.
Xiao Qian stumbled past them alone, muttering to himself, "What's going on? I remember the cave was clearly nearby, how come I can't find it? If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have been so greedy and walked forward for another ten minutes to get information. This way, I wouldn't have come back when it was dark."
"Small money!"
Jiang Mubai and his bodyguard hid in the dense grass nearby. The bodyguard heard the voice and recognized that it was Xiao Qian who came back, so he couldn't wait to call him.
The bodyguard named Xiao Qian was almost scared to death by the shout, "I was so scared! Who is calling me? Why can't I see who is there?"
Jiang Mubai and his bodyguard stood out from the grass, "We are here."
When Xiao Qian recognized Jiang Mubai, he immediately ran over and asked, "Miss Jiang, why are you two here?"
"We were worried about you because you didn't come back, so we couldn't help but come out to look for you. Now that we see that you are fine, we are relieved."
"I'm so sorry for making you two worry. Can you two find the way back to the cave after you come out?"
"Of course we can. We are not like you. You forgot the location of the cave. We have been hiding in it for such a long time."
"You can't blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame it on the fact that it got dark so quickly. I tried my best to rush back but it was too late. How could anyone see where the cave was in such darkness?"
"I can. Just wait. I'll lead the way so you can see if I can help you get back to the cave."
"Okay, okay, I admit that you are better than me, okay? There is no point in comparing."
Jiang Mubai was completely relieved to see that everyone returned safely.
