Stop Messing Around, Mr Bo!

"Sister Mian, what about you?"

Ji Fengmian confirmed that the rope was tied tightly and wiped the rain off his face. "What about me? You're an ancestor. If you die, Chu Boyang will skin me alive. You can't die even if I die!"

After saying this, Ji Fengmian couldn't help but shiver.

"I'll be in front. Follow me."

Ji Qing nodded repeatedly. "Yes, yes!"

Glancing at the rope on her waist, she looked up at the mountain through the rain.

After confirming that his rope was in their hands, he heaved a sigh of relief.

Compared to her earlier trepidation and caution, she seemed much more relaxed.

One rope was enough to turn the world upside down.

It was also this change that caught her off guard.

Compared to her cautiousness just now, her actions now were much more casual.

Because she refused to crawl over herself, Ji Fengmian could only approach her.

Hence, the two of them were near the treetops.

Ji Qing's actions made the entire branch shake.

Ji Fengmian's face suddenly turned pale. He grabbed the branch tightly and roared, "Don't move!"

The wind carried the rain and the branches shook even more.

"Sister Mian…"

Ji Qing watched as Ji Fengmian's body swayed violently. Knowing that there was a rope around her, she reached out to grab her.

She lost her balance and screamed.

The few people who were pulling the rope felt the rope tighten and subconsciously pulled hard.

The branch snapped with a crack.

When the few of them pulled the person on the other end of the rope back, there was only Ji Qing, who was almost scared silly.

Looking again, the broken branch was still hanging there, but there was no one on it.

Uncle Chu's mind buzzed and his body swayed. His voice was heartbreaking. "Miss!"

Ji Qing was shocked by Uncle Chu's shout. When she came back to her senses, there was nothing in the rain.

They had been praying for this to happen.

Yet, what she was afraid of happened.

"Quick! Go down and find her!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The few of them panicked.

In today's situation, using such a rescue method was the best solution.

However, they still let a child take the risk. Now, something had happened.

Not only could she not explain to the child's family, but she also did not know how to explain to her superior and the public.

The sky had completely darkened.

The rain got heavier.

The sound of the wind and rain was exceptionally clear.

It was as empty as an abyss.

Ji Qing was so frightened that her face turned pale. She froze on the spot and her body trembled.

The police officer brushed his hair in exasperation and paced back and forth. In the end, he said sternly, "Wang Chao, send this child down the mountain. Everyone else, get lost and find him!"

Everyone immediately took action. Uncle Chu sat down and placed his hands behind his back. He stretched out his legs and groped his way down the mountain.

"Hey!"

"Don't worry about me. I'm begging you. Hurry up and help me find Miss!"

Uncle Chu seemed to have used all his strength to speak.

After saying that, she sighed heavily and leaned down.

When she sent Ji Qing down the mountain, Ye Jingyun was worried. She was wearing a raincoat and holding a flashlight as she rushed up the mountain.

When she saw Ji Qing, she paused and stood by the roadside. She lowered her head and made way for them.

She wanted to ask something, but she was afraid of the uniform of the person holding Ji Qing.

After they left in a hurry, she walked up the mountain again.

Although there was the sound of rain, she still found the place where the incident happened. She waved her flashlight around and looked at the rope on the ground and the broken branches on the cliff. Ye Jingyun was stunned. She took two steps forward and indeed, she heard a sound.

Recalling Ji Qing's pale face, she tightened her grip on the flashlight.

Probably… something had happened to someone.

After standing there for a while, she suddenly turned around and ran down the mountain.

---

Ji Qing was carried back to the orphanage's infirmary. After making arrangements, the director went in to check on her.

Beside the principal was Chu Boyang, his forehead covered with a veil.

Ji Qing had yet to calm down. She curled up under the blanket, trembling uncontrollably.

She had changed into clean clothes. Her hair was dry and the wounds on her face had been treated.

Tears welled up in her eyes when she saw Chu Boyang.

"Brother Boyan…"

Chu Boyang walked to her side and frowned when he saw the bruises on her face.

"Did that person hit you?"

When she was asked about the situation back then, Ji Qing's grievance overwhelmed her.

Her tears flowed even harder.

"I don't know… Who is that person… I'm so scared… It hurts…"

Ji Qing spoke incoherently as she cried, wanting to reveal more of her fear and grievance to Chu Boyang.

Chu Boyang took a deep breath and tried to sound as calm as possible.

"It's fine now. I saw that the person has been taken away. We'll have to wait for them to investigate the details. But you should be fine in the future. Don't cry."

Ji Qing raised her hand to wipe her tears. When she touched her wound, her tears flowed even more.

The director sat by the bed and patted her body comfortingly.

"Fortunately, nothing irreparable happened in the end. You came back safely. This… is a good thing."

Ji Qing nodded and replied softly.

The director stroked her head and said, "Can you tell Uncle Cha about your situation at that time? It's best to be more detailed from the moment you were arrested… That way, Uncle Cha can investigate the case more…"

Ji Qing's eyes flashed and she shrank back in fear.

Clearly, the situation back then had hurt her too much. She was too afraid to even think about it.

Seeing this, Chu Boyang said, "She hasn't completely calmed down yet. Anyway, we've already caught her. Can we let her rest before asking?"

The police officer glanced at him and pursed his lips. "Rest then. I'll come in and ask you after you've rested."

Chu Boyang was displeased. "Must you ask today?"

The police officer picked up his pen and notebook and sighed. "It might not be today. It might be tomorrow or the day after. But this has nothing to do with me waiting for her outside."

"You've worked hard to be so dedicated."

"No matter how hard we work, we will definitely be criticized for this case."

After all, if a ten-year-old child took the risk to save someone and something happened, it would be a problem if he could keep his police uniform.

Chu Boyang didn't understand what he meant, nor did he want to.

Anyway, Ji Qing was fine now.

The director sighed again and looked at Ji Qing. He couldn't bear it. "It's my negligence. I only want to cooperate with them in the investigation. I'm also… worried that that person might have other accomplices. If something similar happens in the future…"

"I don't think so." Chu Boyang suddenly said, "Today was an accident. Ji Fengmian doesn't come here every day."

The policeman looked at the director with a searching gaze.

"Ji Fengmian?"

The dean nodded in response.

The police officer lowered his head to look at Chu Boyang and frowned slightly. "So you think that it's Ji Fengmian's fault that this child was caught by the criminals today?"

Chu Boyang's face was cold. "I only know that she hates Ji Qing. Not only was Ji Qing taken away by the criminals in front of her, but she was also gloating…"

The police officer snorted. "Young man, if you don't know anything, don't spout nonsense! If that child finds out, how sad will she be?"

Chu Boyang sneered as if he had heard a joke. "I think you're the one who should stop spouting nonsense. Everyone in this world can be sad, but Ji Fengmian… won't be. How can a heartless person know what sadness is?"

"Heartless?" The police officer didn't want to lower himself to the level of a young boy, but this kid was too self-righteous.

"Ask this child, why is she lying here safe and sound?"

Chu Boyang frowned and turned to look at Ji Qing.

The moment she met his gaze, Ji Qing shuddered in fear. She hugged herself tightly and shrank to the corner of the bed.

Seeing her like this, the police officer continued, "This child climbed up the tree trunk on the cliff by herself. With the wind and rain, she was timid and couldn't climb back. The tree trunk was too thin and couldn't withstand an adult. In the end, the heartless girl you mentioned stood by and watched. She even gloated and saved her…"

Chu Boyang's eyes froze.

Then, she turned to look at Ji Qing. Ji Qing bit her lips and nodded. "Yes… Sister Mian saved me…"

Chu Boyang's tense face relaxed slightly.

In the end, he was fooled by her stubborn mouth.

"What about her?"

Ji Qing said nothing.

However, the police officer said, "She gave the rope to the child. When she came back, the branch suddenly broke and only saved her. The child fell and we don't know if she's alive or dead. However, judging from the steepness of the mountain, even if she's alive, she might be crippled… It's a pity that she's only ten years old… She risked her life to save someone and her friend said that she was heartless…"

"Brother Boyan…"

Chu Boyang leaned against Ji Qing's bed. His pale face was filled with shock and endless anger.

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

The police officer narrowed his eyes and lowered his head to look at him. "Why do you think so many brothers didn't come back? Naturally, they left all the police forces to look for the child who fell off the cliff."

"In any case, there's a high chance that I won't be able to keep my uniform. It doesn't matter if things progress quickly or slowly. Rest well and inform me when you're done."

Chu Boyang was in a daze and his body was a little unstable, but he still ran out.
