Chapter 128 You two are really tight-lipped!
Wang Ma felt sticky on her face, so she lifted her sleeve to wipe it, feeling somewhat disgusted with her slovenly appearance.
"I didn't hold on tight enough and fell to the ground. Get up quickly, and be quick about it."
Zhang Xinru rubbed her bottom, picked up the watermelon rind, and continued to destroy the evidence.
Seeing the two of them scrambling around, Xu Jiaojiao and Ye Jiajia burst out laughing in unison.
The two exchanged a glance, then stopped smiling and avoided looking at each other.
After Zhang Ma and the other woman arrived, they suggested going again.
The watermelon I just ate was completely useless; although it quenched my thirst, my stomach is still empty.
Ye Jiajia stood up and was the first to disagree.
"No, we can't go any further. We've already alerted them. They might be waiting in the field to catch us!"
Xu Jiaojiao insisted on going against her wishes.
"Go ahead, go ahead, how can you be sure they're there? There are so many watermelons in the field, maybe they don't even care."
Zhang Xinru suggested, "Why don't we skip picking them from the field and just pick up the two that just fell off?"
Aunt Wang nodded, "That's right, it's a shame to leave those two watermelons there. We might as well pick them up and eat them!"
Ye Jiajia thought about it and agreed, so she didn't stop them anymore.
Xu Jiaojiao was still thinking about picking a good watermelon to redeem herself, and she was a little dissatisfied when she heard them say that, but she didn't say anything.
The four went back and quietly observed the situation in the field. Seeing that no one was around, they walked towards the field step by step.
Not far from the watermelon patch, Zhang Xinru saw the two missing watermelons. She handed one to Ye Jiajia beside her and kept the other in her arms.
"Found it, let's go..."
Xu Jiaojiao thought that since she had already come this far, a few more steps wouldn't hurt, so she ran to the field to pick out watermelons.
Looking around, Wang Ma realized she couldn't let each of them have one while she didn't, so she quickly ran over to Xu Jiaojiao's side to pick out a watermelon.
Zhang Xinru and Ye Jiajia took a few steps and, noticing there was no movement behind them, turned around to see the two of them running back to the field to pick watermelons.
"..."
Didn't we agree on this before we came? What are they up to?
Zhang Xinru scanned her surroundings, afraid that someone might suddenly appear.
"Wang Ma, that's enough, get out of here."
Ye Jiajia was a little anxious, feeling uneasy. "Hurry up."
The two people over there ignored everything and continued to pick out watermelons with their heads down.
"Right away, right away..."
"It's coming soon..."
Just then, an elderly couple appeared in the distance, flanking them from their only escape route, shouting loudly.
"Hey, who's stealing watermelons from the field? Stop right there!"
The four people heard the noise and realized something was wrong, so they each grabbed a watermelon and ran away.
Ye Jiajia was filled with regret: "I knew it! I told you I wouldn't come, but you insisted on coming. Now look what happened."
Zhang Xinru panicked: "Ah...they came from that side and ran to the other side."
Wang Ma and Xu Jiaojiao followed behind, not forgetting to hold tightly to the watermelon they had carefully selected.
Since the road they came from was blocked, the four of them had no choice but to run in another direction.
When you reach the end of the road and see no way out, you can only jump down to the next level.
Holding the watermelon, Ye Jiajia trembled and said, "Aunt Zhang, it's too high up here, I'm afraid to jump down."
Zhang Xinru glanced at it and saw that it was only two meters high, and there was grass and dirt all around, so it wouldn't kill anyone; at most, their buttocks would get hurt.
"It's too late, jump now!"
After saying that, he slid down, his already dirty and messy clothes becoming even more tattered.
Ye Jiajia gritted her teeth and jumped down as well.
From a young age, she was a well-behaved child in her grandmother's eyes, always following the rules. She never expected that one day she would do something like this.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Ma and Xu Jiaojiao ran over and, seeing that they had all jumped down, followed suit.
"Ouch, my butt! You two are so tight-lipped! You jumped down and your butts hurt so much without you saying a word."
When Xu Jiaojiao heard what Wang Ma said, she paused, caught in a dilemma.
"If you all leave, what am I supposed to do?"
As Wang Ma brushed the dirt off her clothes, she didn't forget to pick up the watermelon that had rolled to the side.
"What else can we do but jump down!"
Xu Jiaojiao clutched the watermelon tightly in her hands, almost crying.
"Wang Ma, I dare not..."
Wang Ma glanced behind Xu Jiaojiao and said, "They're coming over soon. If you don't come down, you'll be arrested!"
After saying that, he ran after Zhang Ma and the others.
Seeing that they had all run far away, Xu Jiaojiao didn't dare to hesitate any longer and jumped down with her eyes closed.
"Waaaaah...it hurts so much...waaaaah..."
While crying, she still picked up the watermelon and ran in the direction they had left.
The melon farmer and his wife stopped chasing them once they reached this point.
"Are we not going to continue the pursuit?"
"No need. The way they went is a dead end. They'll come back later. We'll just wait for them here."
……
Here, Xiao Shi and his group followed the trail of blood and found the kidnappers.
The skinny guy happened to be out shopping and escaped the attack, but the fat guy was caught by the kids.
Not long after the younger man took the fat man away, Fu Xiaochen's men came looking for him again, and they ran into the thin man.
They took one kidnapper with them.
When Xiao Shi learned from the kidnappers that they were still alive, she breathed a sigh of relief.
The fat man confessed to the kidnapping and also said that the last phone call was from their side, demanding that all four of them be killed.
Fu Xiaochen also knew that Jiajia and the others were not in any danger, and he also learned from the skinny guy that the other party was specifically targeting him.
Both sides searched for their whereabouts while investigating who was behind it all.
Where did they go?
……
"Ah...stop, stop, there's a cliff ahead."
Zhang Xinru knelt on the ground, trembling with fear, and peered down.
Ye Jiajia put down the watermelon she was holding and sat down on the ground as well.
"Phew... Aunt Wang and the others are here."
Aunt Wang gasped for breath, "Why aren't you moving anymore?"
Zhang Xinru: "There's no road. Below is a cliff, it's too high."
Xu Jiaojiao arrived last, her face covered in tears like a little kitten.
"Waaaaah, this is so unfair! None of you even said you'd wait for me... Waaaaah..."
Zhang Xinru was annoyed by Xu Jiaojiao's crying.
"Stop crying, young lady. Aren't you tired of carrying a watermelon like that? Sit down and rest!"
After Xu Jiaojiao finished crying, she let out a hiccup.
"What do we do now?"
