Ye Shing had a complicated look on his face. He looked at his mother as if seeing her as a monster! (A harsh word, let it be) 

For some reason, he felt that his mom must be joking because going inside the lake to find some bags was something unbelievable for him!

"Mom, are you seriously kidding me? This is a lake, you want me to go inside this lake and search for those bags?" Ye Shing still felt that he might have heard something wrong. Maybe his mom did not mean what she said.

But Su Xi was persistent. "I can't trust someone else for this. You are a good swimmer and this sounds selfish but Ye Shing, mom really needs your help." Su Xi's tone was almost like a begging tone.

She had no other option but to push Ye Shing, to agree on it. If she had asked any other swimmer to come with her, this news might have leaked to others, who are trying to keep an eye on her.

But once seeing, if the bags were inside or not I'd also be important. This is the main place, where she once thought that the chances of bags can be.

"But mom this is a lake, it might be deep at least. How can I simply jump into it and bring out bags, which I highly doubt are inside." Ye Shing still believed she was behaving strangely.

Everything underwater will be a waste, the material inside the bag included. So, how can she get back the things that were inside?

But what he wasn't aware of what Ye Huo and Su Xi had did before to secure many things inside. 

Ye Shing faced his mother with his confusion eyes, looking for some answers!

At this point, Su Xi understood one thing and that was, she has to tell some important things to her child before he goes inside.

Taking a deep breath, Su Xu faced Ye Shing, with a serious expression pestered on her face.

"Ah Shing, you may found it funny but let me tell you one thing, once in the past, I and your father made something beneath the lake.

On the surface of it, there are two boxes, or as far as I remember, there is a place which is locked by a key. 

I never went inside because, you know, I don't know how to swim but your father did know. He came up with this plan and to place the things securely, he built it up.

For once, I want to check those boxes or whatever is inside the lake. The point we are standing in isn't deep at all and that's the specialty of it. 

We were able to construct it, illegally, I agree but it was important to safeguard many things." When Su Xi finished, she saw her son was having many questions arise in his mind.

His face was full of questions because she hadn't made it clear perfectly.

"What's the guarantee that, if by chance the bags are there then the matter inside it, for which you are looking for, won't be damaged." Ye Shing asked with his one eyebrow raised.

He had understood his mother's half logic but somethings ran out of his mind just like that. He started at Su Xi, waiting for her reply.

'He needs more explanation. Can't he be just satisfied by whatever I have told him in the starting..' but in the end, he is the one who has gone down, so telling him everything is a must.

"I and your father built this boxed beneath, so we had this in mind that they can be damaged too. But don't worry, they are special boxes, with another layer of glass, which don't let water pass through it."

"You mean to say that those bags will be perfectly fine if they are inside?" Ye Shing carefully asked her.

"Yes, can your questions era be finished and you go down now? We don't have the whole day and in the second half, I have a meeting to attend too!" Su Xi gave him a glare and he obediently agreed to do that.

He took off all of his clothes, leaving boxers down and swimming goggles to see down. When he was ready to jump into the water, he heard Su Xi saying.

"Take this key with you. By Chance, if there are boxes, open them. As I told you, even if they are opened, water won't harm anything. So, see if those bags are inside or not." 

Ye Shing took the key from her hands, and jumped into the water, going down. He had once worn a state-level championship for water, so it was easy for him to see around and swim for a long period.

'I think I need to go deeper.' He thought and for the sake of his mother, he moved more downwards. His legs were moving constantly back and forth, making sure his body's posture was right.

While on the other hand, Su Xi is standing on the boat while she was praying for her child to come back with the good news that he finally found something.

Although there is a high possibility that he might not be able to because she had no proof but at that point, she can only hope that two years back, Ye Huo had come here and hidden those bags.

'I wish he was thinking the same as me. Otherwise... It's the bad luck of mine.' Su Xi thought as she waited for Ye Shing to come out.

Minutes passed but she heard no voice from her son. Her heart was getting anxious now because he had been underwater for so long!

She had faith in her child but she can't help but think negatively right now, as her motherly instincts started hitting her up.

"Ye Shing? You are there?" 

"Child? Leave it! Let us go back, I think it's not in there!?" 

"Son! Come out now! You are giving me a heart attack." 

The worriedness and stress were quite evident in her voice. Finding the bag was important but not more than her child's life. She had predicted that the lake might not be that deep, but now she isn't sure about it anymore.

But she had no response. thus made Su Xi even more anxious as she tried to go down but that was the main problem, she doesn't know how to swim!

'I wish I had learned swimming when Ye Huo was ready to teach me.' Many of her actions in the last were conflicted.

She was eagerly waiting for Ye Shing to come out and say that everything is alright and he found the bag but she did not see his face, not even once.

Her heart was already coming out and if she did not see Ye Shing in the next few minutes, then her heart would just come out and she might lose her mind too.

But then, came a voice from down, "MOM! I FOUND SOMETHING."

"WHAT?!" Su Xi, who was standing in a daze till now, reacted the fast she could when the voice entered into her ears. she looked inside from where Ye Shing's voice came

The worriedness on her face, slightly vanished away when his voice was heard to her. Su Xi had no doubt that her son is a really good swimmer but a mother is always concerned for you...

And finally, Ye Shing's head came above the surface of the water. He was coughing because his practice to stay in wager wasn't as much as before.

Su Xi first handed him a towel and helped in boarding the motor boat once again. 

After he had Settled down on the boat, he coughed vigorously and looked at his mother, "The water is a too salty mom! Yuck!" The water almost reached his throat and he thanked God that he did take it inside his stomach!

Su Xi patted his back, like a caring mother who looked too worried about her son. She gave him a bottle of water and drank it in just one go.

"Take a deep breath." Su Xi said and he followed her advice. 

She can see the frowned expression on his face and in contrast, it was making her heartbeat faster and faster.

Although her mind was asking her to directly ask her before, she, as a mother, wanted Ye Shing to be fine.

After a few minutes, when he settled down, he looked at his mother with a serious expression on his face.

"Ye Shing, w..what did you see down? Are those bags down or not?!" Su Xi asked but to her expectations, his expression did not change even for a second and this made Su Xi understand that she failed.

'Maybe my instincts weren't correct the time.'

"Mom, you were….
