836 I’ve Never Tried This Before!
Ye Feng smiled mysteriously. “Then don’t worry about it. If I say there is, there is. Just tell me if you want to go or not.”
Xu Jingxin was tempted. She had always been curious about such mysterious things.
However, when she thought of that eerie courtyard, she hesitated.
Seeing this, Ye Feng immediately spread his hands. “It’s fine if you don’t dare to go, I’ll go find Zhuang Xiaojiao. She should be quite interested in this kind of thing.”
When Xu Jingxin heard the name ‘Zhuang Xiaojiao,’ she hurriedly pulled him back. “I’ll go.”
Ye Feng looked at her strangely. It seemed that Zhuang Xiaojiao’s name was really useful.
Xu Jingxin felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze. “I just think… Miss Zhuang’s condition is still unstable, so it’s better not to disturb her for the time being.”
After saying that, she lowered her head guiltily.
Ye Feng could not be bothered to expose her thoughts. He only nodded lightly. “Alright, go and sleep for a while, rest well.”
“I’ll call you when we take action at night.”
Because Ye Feng was staying in a VIP ward, other than the hospital bed, there was also a sofa, coffee table, and a single bed for the staff to rest.
Xu Jingxin didn’t say anything else and went to the single bed to rest.
She didn’t sleep much last night. She only took a nap in the morning, but she woke up very quickly. She was really sleepy now and fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow.
Ye Feng leaned on the bed and started to plan his actions for the night.
..
At night, Ye Feng and Xu Jingxin arrived at Ding Richang’s old residence.
There was no moonlight tonight, and the entire courtyard was submerged in the pitch-black night.
The two of them went to the wall of the backyard. This wall was about two meters tall, but to Ye Feng, it was useless.
He jumped onto the wall first and was about to pull Xu Jingxin up.
However, Eldest Miss Xu smiled faintly and took a few steps back. She suddenly rushed forward, stepped on the wall with one foot, and nimbly jumped onto the top of the wall.
Then, she flipped over and landed in the courtyard.
Ye Feng immediately gave her a thumbs-up. “Not bad, your skills are not bad.”
Xu Jingxin smiled smugly. “Do you really think I’m that kind of weak young lady? I’ve just been hiding it all along.”
“If you dare to bully me again in the future, watch how I deal with you.”
Ye Feng curled his lips and smiled. He directly jumped in front of her and hooked his arm around her slender waist. “If I really want to bully you, can you resist?”
He hugged her tightly. Xu Jingxin struggled a few times but could not break free. She was a little embarrassed and angry. “Let go. If you dare to touch me again, I’ll… I’ll tell my brother that you bullied me.”
Ye Feng did not care about her threat. “If your brother finds out that you, the great Miss Xu, followed me into someone else’s backyard in the middle of the night and became a thief, I don’t know if he will deal with you or me first.”
Xu Jingxin immediately burst into laughter. She could already imagine her brother’s expression when he found out about this.
The education she had received since she was young was a typical elite education. It was unimaginable for her to do such a thing.
Her smile was like a blooming mountain flower. It was beautiful. Ye Feng’s eyes were staring blankly.
However, he still firmly remembered his mission. Now was not the time to linger around women.
“Hurry up and leave. This place is in ruins.”
Ye Feng walked inside first, and Xu Jingxin quickly followed.
The two of them came to the well in the courtyard and looked inside. It was dark inside, and they didn’t know how deep it was.
“The treasure you mentioned, could it be in the well?”
Xu Jingxin felt her scalp go numb. The backyard was already gloomy enough. Did they have to go down into the well?
She heard that in the past, these rich families often threw their servants who had made mistakes into the well to drown. Who knew what strange things were down there?
Ye Feng turned around and smiled at her. “If you don’t dare to go down, then wait for me on top.”
As he spoke, he tied the rope he had bought in advance to a tree trunk that was as thick as a bowl.
Xu Jingxin looked around and suddenly shivered. “I’m more scared up there alone. I’d better go down with you.”
She was already regretting following this guy to this godforsaken place.
Ye Feng shook his head. After confirming that he was tied up, he turned to Xu Jingxin and slowly opened his arms: “Then come up.”
“What? Where to?” Xu Jingxin did not understand what he meant.
“Of course you’re lying on me. I’ll bring you down along the rope,” Ye Feng said seriously.
“Lying on your body…” Such a shameful action made Xu Jingxin hesitate.
Ye Feng pointed at the well indifferently. “Then why don’t you go down first?”
Xu Jingxin looked into the well and shuddered. She was curious, but she still needed to train her courage. She did not dare to go in alone.
She immediately shook her head at Ye Feng.
Ye Feng pursed his lips. “Then why don’t you wait up here first? I will go down and investigate, then you can come down.”
Xu Jingxin looked at the dark surroundings and shook her head again.
Ye Feng was a little angry. “Women are so troublesome. If I had known earlier, I would not have brought you here.”
“You can’t do this, you can’t do that, and you still want to find King Xiang’s secret treasure? I think you should go home and give birth.”
Xu Jingxin was provoked by him and her temper flared up.
She walked up to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. Her long legs wrapped around his waist like an octopus.
“Is this okay?”
This sudden intimate gesture made Ye Feng feel a little helpless.
He had never tried this before!
