Quan Jue really wanted to come ashore with Chi Jiao, but his body didn’t allow it now. It wasn’t convenient for him to leave the water now.

Chi Jiao wanted to ask him what he needed to settle, but she suddenly recalled the passion she had just experienced.

Chi Jiao retracted her hand as if she had been scalded and said helplessly, “I… I’ll wait for Brother Quan here, then…”

Quan Jue nodded and quickly dived into the water.

Chi Jiao wrapped herself in a towel and used the lake water to wash her face. After relieving her heat, she sat at the side and hugged her knees, waiting for Quan Jue to come out.

Chi Jiao was already tired. Coupled with Quan Jue’s astonishing endurance, she was almost asleep when he finally emerged about an hour later.

Quan Jue’s heart softened upon seeing her like this. He carefully carried her and left the cave, returning to the villa.

Chi Jiao continued to stay in Quan Jue’s arms as they reached the villa, unwilling to leave.

Quan Jue smiled and said, “I don’t mind helping you shower if you don’t get up…”

Chi Jiao was no longer sleepy when she heard this. She quickly jumped out of Quan Jue’s arms and returned to her room to take a shower.

Quan Jue stared at her back view and smiled helplessly. He then turned around and returned to his room, closing the door and taking a shower.

After taking a shower, the two of them left the villa and returned to their tents to rest.

Lu Xian was half-asleep when she returned. She fell back asleep after asking if they had returned safely.

With the light from outside the tent, Chi Jiao kept looking at her bracelet. Her lips curled into a sweet smile. Finally, she closed her eyes in satisfaction and fell asleep.

The next morning, Chi Jiao missed the beautiful sunrise. The sky was already bright when she was woken up by Yi Lanlan and the rest.

Bai Weiyu was the first to speak. “Look, where did Jiaojiao’s bracelet come from?”

“Hehe, where else could it have come from? Something so precious to our Jiaojiao must have been a gift from Senior Quan Jue.” Yi Lanlan’s evil laughter rang out.

“Jiaojiao and Senior were the only ones who didn’t wake up to watch the sunrise this morning. Do you think they went behind our backs last night?” Dang Nan made a bold guess.

Yi Lanlan’s evil laughter grew louder. She held Dang Nan’s hand and said, “Of course!”

“Ah, what did the two of them do last night?” Bai Weiyu asked curiously.

“Of course…” Dang Nan and Yi Lanlan looked at each other and smiled. They were about to say something embarrassing.

Chi Jiao couldn’t take it anymore. She opened her eyes and sat up. “The three of you should know when to stop, especially Xiao Nan and Lanlan. Don’t lead the innocent Xiao Yu astray.” With that, she poked Dang Nan and Yi Lanlan’s heads.

“What’s wrong? We didn’t say anything wrong. Hurry up and tell us honestly. What did you and Senior sneak off to do last night?” Dang Nan hurriedly asked.

Chi Jiao blushed. “Nothing.”

“Stop trying to fool us. Hurry up and tell us the truth.” Yi Lanlan continued to pursue the matter. Suddenly, Quan Jue noiselessly appeared behind them.

“Why don’t you ask me if you have anything you want to know?” Quan Jue stood outside the tent and said calmly.
