But she wasn’t a simple woman either; she spoke with confidence and composure.
Mou Xiao knew she definitely wasn’t a simple woman, or else she wouldn’t be highly regarded by the owner of the Ansheng Group.
Through their conversations, he ca to understand her more deeply.
In conclusion, she was a good woman.
"Still haven’t found it?" Axiang sensed his return and asked lightly.
"No." Mou Xiao replied plainly. Unable to find the exit, he’s surely upset, but he wouldn’t show it in front of her.
"Actually, I’ve been searching for many years. These twenty years, I haven’t found an exit. Perhaps this place really can’t be escaped for a lifeti."
"We will find it!" Mou Xiao would always answer with this definite phrase.
Axiang asked him, "What if we never escape in our lifeti?"
Mou Xiao hadn’t considered this question; he believed that if it’s possible to get out, then they certainly will get out.
But what if they really couldn’t escape?
Not being able to escape doesn’t seem that bad.
Mou Xiao looked at her, suddenly feeling that spending a lifeti here with this woman wouldn’t be so bad.
Perhaps afraid she might detect his thoughts, he averted his gaze and said, "My people will find us. There’s access from outside."
"Yes, you’re right." Axiang nodded in agreent.
At least there are people outside, which ans there’s hope.
Actually, Axiang feared being too disappointed, feared still being unable to get out, thus dared not to hope. Otherwise, she would truly collapse.
Being alone here for twenty years is beyond anyone’s endurance.
Therefore, Mou Xiao’s presence was sothing she was grateful for.
At least she could still see soone, still talk to soone...
Even if she can’t leave alive, it doesn’t matter anymore. She will have him convey her ssage outside; that’s enough.

This ti, Hao Yansen’s judgnt was finally correct!
After digging for two more days, they finally unearthed sothing!
"We found it!" One of his subordinates shouted excitedly, and Xing Yan was the first to rush over.
"What did you find?!"
Hao Yansen also strode over and discovered they had found a passage.
"Is this a passage?" Yan Zhufei observed and asked with surprise.
Hao Yansen nodded, "It should be. My judgnt was indeed correct. The chanism here is mobile, but even if it moves, the distance won’t be too far."
That’s why he roughly set a distance and had people try digging, and indeed, they found it.
"I’ll go down and check!" Xing Yan couldn’t help but say.
He couldn’t wait any longer; after speaking, he jumped straight down.
The entrance was sloped, but upon descending, a long passage could be seen.
Xing Yan was very excited.
Big Brother must have gone down the passage, so he’s likely okay.
Xing Yan moved swiftly ahead, Shang Shi prevented Hao Yansen from going down first, opting to explore the way himself.
He followed behind Xing Yan, and after walking a long distance, they finally discovered light.
And their footsteps were heard by Mou Xiao.
Mou Xiao instantly perked up, "My people are here!"
"What?" Axiang was montarily stunned, unable to react; perhaps it was disbelief.
"We can get out." Mou Xiao said to her with a smile.
This was probably his first smile, and Axiang noticed it. She paused slightly, suddenly wanting to see what his smile was like.
It must be lovely...
"Big Brother!" Xing Yan rushed to the entrance, saw him, and shouted excitedly.
