Chapter 264 - Happy (1/2)

Hours passed and it was already five in the afternoon. Lei Zhao called Ye Xing to talk to the guards guarding the cave to give them access for exploration.

When Lei Zhao called Ye Xing, Yan Mei narrowed her eyes at Lei Zhao as she watched him do a call.

She found it amazing how Ye Xing and Lei Zhao could be sneaky. She did not notice Ye Xing's appearance last night and only knew now from Lei Zhao that Ye Xing was here on the island since last night. Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click /book/flash-marriage-the-domineering-wife_16716595005962805/happy_50762058316184377 for visiting.

Does being a secretary have something to do with being effective in becoming a secret when needed, too?

Two of them were already walking towards the cave. When they arrived in front of the entrance, Lei Zhao and Yan Mei saw Ye Xing carrying their jackets.

”Mr. and Mrs. Lei.” Ye Xing did a small bow to greet them. ”Good afternoon.”

”En.” Lei Zhao nodded as he got both of their matching jackets, giving Yan Mei one. ”Thank you, Ye Xing.”

Yan Mei gave a small smile to Ye Xing as she wore her jacket. Afterwards, she got her scrunchie that was around her wrist, tying her hair into a ponytail to keep her hair in place.

The three of them then walked towards the entrance, the two guards giving them a smile as they welcome the two.

”It has been long since people wanted to explore the cave,” one guard commented, the three looking at them as they listened to him speak. ”It would only be you two today since your secretary asked to make it happen as much as possible.”

Yan Mei raised a brow at Lei Zhao, ”You wanted to rent this whole cave to ourselves?”

Lei Zhao nodded enthusiastically, ”Of course! I told you—my attention is all yours and it would be more exciting to have the cave to ourselves! I want you scared, clinging on to me!”

Yan Mei rolled her eyes at Lei Zhao's childishness. She giggled a bit as she heaved a small sigh, looking at the two guards who are guarding outside.

”Is it safe to be inside?” she asked, the other guard nodding.

”It is. It's just that people don't find it amusing to travel with their lovers and only groups of friends explore inside. However, it is good to be cautious while inside,” he answered and said, the other guard giving Lei Zhao a backpack.

”There is a First-Aid Kit inside along with some walkie-talkies and bottled water. If an emergency arises inside, communicate with us immediately. We know the cave like the back of our palm.”

Lei Zhao got the backpack from the guard and wore it on his back. The other guard then gave a map to Yan Mei, making her open it as both of them now saw how the cave looks like inside. Yan Mei's eyes widened when a part of the map had gotten her attention.

”This place,” she commented, pointing at the middle most part of the cave's map. ”There's a spring in the middle of the cave?”

”Oh, yeah!” The guard sounded enthusiastic. ”If you're up for the walk, you two could go to the spring and it's definitely breathtaking—stunning!”

Lei Zhao looked at Yan Mei, ”Do you want to visit the spring? It seems far. You might find it tiring when you

just had a spa day.”

”Ah, no,” Yan Mei shook her head, ”I'd like to try exploring the place. It is something that we rarely experience,” she added, a smile appearing on Lei Zhao's face.

”Alright then,” he said, getting the flashlights from the guard in front of them. ”Let's explore the cave then.”

With that, the two of them entered, Lei Zhao leading the way as he looked over at Yan Mei to look at the map that she was holding. The guards then sat down in front of the cave's entrance as they started conversing with Ye Xing about the history of the cave.

”Let's take another left,” Yan Mei said, Lei Zhao holding her free hand as his other hand held the flashlight to light their path.

”Through this fork?”

In front of them were three entrances. Lei Zhao was confused to which left he would take, making sure that they should arrive at the spring to enjoy the location to themselves.

Yan Mei looked at the map and then back at the view in front of them. She then pointed the middle entrance, the two of them already making way to the spring.

Their footsteps echoed as they took each step in. It was damp inside as well, making Yan Mei hold on to Lei Zhao's arm as they continue walking onwards. Since they are already near the spring, Yan Mei kept the map in her pocket.

”Are you alright?” Lei Zhao asked, Yan Mei nodding even in the dark.

”I am. Why?”

”Nothing,” Lei Zhao said, continuing to lead the way. ”I am just worried that you're tired because we have been walking for a very long time.”

”Ah…”
