Chapter 2696: I Lied to You

"Why aren't they out yet? Did they encounter any trouble?" Leng Shaoxun was too worried to stand still. He focused on the place where Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning swam into the pool.

"They'll be fine," said Leng Shaoxi, but she was actually no less worried than Leng Shaoxun. She said that to comfort herself as well.

"Don't be too worried. Even if something goes wrong, they will be fine," said Xu Jinchen. He wasn't too worried, but he still cared about their safety.

An hour and twenty minutes later, Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning came out. Everyone immediately walked forward. They couldn't feel relieved until they had made sure that Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning were fine.

"You've been gone for so long. What happened?" asked Zi Beiying with concern.

"Nothing serious. A fox got injured and was making some sounds inside. We treated its wound, then came out," said Gu Ning. It was impossible for her to tell the truth, so she made up a lie.
