Chapter 53 The Two Children Are Missing (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Xu Qingmo was speechless. These kids weren't even ten years old, yet they had already learned to peep at others taking a bath.

Wang Xiaohu continued, "Zhou Tianyu stole eggs from the same family for three consecutive days. He poked a hole in the bottom of the freshly laid eggs and sucked them out through the hole, causing the hen to get beaten up by her family."

Zhou Tianyu blushed. "Didn't you promise not to tell?"

Wang Xiaohu disagreed, "I wanted to eat rabbit meat, and I said so. Don't be so stingy."

Zhou Tianyu was eager to try, "Song Wei stole money to take us to buy delicious food, and his parents still don't know."

Song Wei glared angrily at Zhou Tianyu and immediately retorted, "Zhou Tianyu not only stole people's eggs, but he also stole their hen, took it outside, and roasted it over a fire to eat. He didn't even bother to remove the feathers, and the meat was all charred black. He only ate some of the meat inside, and he even found chicken droppings in his food, hahaha..."

Zhou Tianyu immediately retorted, "You're talking nonsense. I didn't steal any chickens."

"You think it's gone just because you say so? I saw it with my own eyes. You even asked me to bring matches from home." To make his story seem believable, Song Wei was willing to expose himself as well.

"You bitch, you ate with us too, why are you only accusing me of stealing chicken?" Zhou Tianyu was furious.

Song Wei said, "Because you went to someone else's chicken coop and stole it yourself, and I didn't go with you, of course you stole it by yourself."

Wang Xiaohu was furious. "You two actually cheated on me by eating chicken without telling me! You wait, when we get back I'll tell everyone about you cheating on chicken."

Zhou Tianyu was scared. "Don't even mention it. You weren't in the family compound at the time, and that chicken wouldn't have been kept for long. If it had gone bad, no one would have been able to eat it."

"He deliberately waited until you left the residential compound before stealing the chickens," Song Wei added fuel to the fire.

Zhou Tianyu glared at Song Wei, "I didn't even tell anyone that you stole someone's cabbage, but you actually told everyone that I stole chickens. You're not a friend at all."

“Cabbage is not as expensive as chicken, what’s wrong with me stealing a few cabbages?” Song Wei didn’t think he was wrong.

“You stealing cabbage isn’t stealing? When we get back, I’ll tell your mom you stole something.” Zhou Tianyu persisted.

“Then I’ll tell your mom you stole someone’s hen, and we’ll see who gets beaten up the harder,” Song Wei retorted.

The two argued, but only Wang Xiaohu didn't forget the conditions Xu Qingmo had initially proposed.

Wang Xiaohu asked, "Since I just revealed two people's secrets, shouldn't I get to eat that roasted rabbit leg?"

Xu Qingmo shook her head. "What you're saying is all very basic. I don't find it particularly surprising."

Wang Xiaohu was shocked. "We are just kids. These things are big deals for us. You, a five-year-old, are being so picky. You clearly don't want us to be late for the rabbit meat."

Xu Qingmo stroked her chin and came up with a good idea. "How about this, you tell the adults in your families the secrets you revealed today, and come to me tomorrow to have your injuries checked. Whoever gets beaten the worst will get a whole rabbit."

Wang Xiaohu was very interested, as were Song Wei and Zhou Tianyu.

But neither of them dared to compete with Wang Xiaohu.

Wang Xiaohu was confident: "I must be number one in this fight."

Song Wei and Zhou Tianyu were speechless; what was there to brag about?

"Wang Xiaohu, let's not hurt each other. Xu Qingmo is deliberately setting a trap for us," Zhou Tianyu said.

Song Wei chimed in, "Yeah, yeah, we shouldn't fall for her tricks."

Wang Xiaohu said, "We've already revealed the secret. Even if we don't tell it when we get home, Xu Qingmo and Lu Ting will. Then we'll not only get beaten up, but we won't even see a rabbit's hair."

Song Wei and Zhou Tianyu thought about it and realized that what he said made a lot of sense.

The three of them agreed that only Wang Xiaohu would get beaten up badly.

Wang Xiaohu readily agreed and asked Lu Ting to untie him so that Song Wei and Zhou Tianyu could remain tied up.

Song Wei and Zhou Tianyu were dumbfounded. They struggled desperately, but they couldn't break free no matter what they did.

Wang Xiaohu said, “When we get back, I’ll tell everyone that I tied you two up in this forest. My dad will definitely beat me the hardest. Xu Qingmo, don’t forget to give me the rabbit, or I’ll tell everyone that you tied them up here.”

Xu Qingmo didn't answer for a moment, never expecting that Wang Xiaohu could be so ruthless for a bite to eat.

They can even screw themselves over!

Xu Qingmo nodded. "Don't worry, I mean what I say. Here's a rabbit leg for you."

Xu Qingmo acknowledged that Wang Xiaohu was the most ruthless person, and that a rabbit leg had given Wang Xiaohu a taste of sweetness.

He was even more looking forward to the beating.

Wang Xiaohu did not follow Xu Qingmo and Lu Ting out of the woods; he waited until they were far away before going out himself.

Song Wei and Zhou Tianyu were left there, shouting for Wang Xiaohu.

"Could you untie our ropes? I've heard there are wild animals in this forest. If we run into them, we won't be able to escape." Zhou Tianyu was terrified.

Song Wei chimed in, "Yes, we won't go out with you. We'll wait for you to bring the adults to find us, and then we'll go home with them. We promise we won't run around."

"That won't do. If you're untied, the adults will definitely become suspicious." Wang Xiaohu ignored him and continued walking forward.

The Song Wei and Zhou Tianyu families waited from before sunset until sunset, but their children never came home.

They began searching for Song Wei and Zhou Tianyu in the family compound, but they couldn't find them until dark.

Liu Guiying searched the area around the family compound again, but still couldn't find Song Wei. She met with Zhou Tianyu's mother, Zhang Cui, and the two of them decided to ask Shen Jiang for help in finding him.

They went to Shenjiang's house together and happened to run into Shenjiang bringing out the food from the kitchen.

With tears in their eyes, Zhang Cui and Liu Guiying spoke up to Shen Jiang, "Shen Jiang, our child is missing, and we can't find him. Can you find someone to help us find him?"

Liu Guiying tried to kneel down before Shen Jiang, but was stopped.

Liu Guiying's voice was hoarse from shouting, "Shenjiang, please help us! Our child is our life. I don't want to live without him."

Just then, a series of ghostly wails and howls came from outside.

Wang Xiaohu was dragged over by the ear, and Wang Shuncai was filled with shame. "Sister Liu, Sister Zhang, Xiaohu said he deliberately tied Song Wei and Zhou Tianyu up in the woods. Now we need to hurry up and rescue the children."

Liu Guiying staggered and was supported by Zhang Cui to avoid falling to the ground.

"Go, hurry up! Go and bring Song Wei and Zhou Tianyu back now. God help them, please don't let them run into any wild animals!" Liu Guiying hurriedly walked out.

Zhang Cui immediately followed.

Wang Xiaohu, with tears in his eyes, winked at Xu Qingmo and mouthed the words "Don't forget to give me the rabbit."
