"You're not allowed to play games like that again, understand?"
Xiao Dan still had glistening tears on his eyelashes, which made one of the kids so angry that he flicked him on the head.
That scene was terrifying; I never want to see it again. I intended to punish the children, but I couldn't control myself.
Da Liu rubbed her aching head, pouting with a slightly aggrieved expression.
"Grandpa, we're playing a survival game on a deserted island. It was Mom's idea. Why aren't you scolding her?"
Xiao Liu: "Yes, Grandpa, we've been waiting for you for so long. We were bored, so we played games. Who knew you would come so soon after we lay down?"
Chou Chou pulled Nan Nan to hide around the corner. "Daddy Xiao, if you play the small one, you can't play the big one!"
The young apprentice shuffled around to clean up the mess, his busy figure indicating that he was just an extra.
The main character is the one being played.
The main character reeling in the fishing rod has pointed ears.
She had just lain down, that's true, but she hadn't just started playing. She had timed it perfectly, and it was about the time the plane would arrive. Who knew it would be her dad? She was so easily startled.
She wanted to scare the big boss and the old man.
Splash!
"Big fish, Daddy, look, it's a big fish. Let Rotten Egg roast it for you."
My daughter has atoneed, so Daddy should be happy.
Xiao Dan: ...
He wiped away his tears, his heart still pounding, and turned the cannon towards his son-in-law.
"Don't you know it's bad for a child to lie on the ground? The sun is so strong, and there's a river all around. What if they fall in?"
"I entrusted my child to you, and this is how you take care of him?"
Xie Lin: ...
Fine, I admit I didn't think things through and just went along with Shishi's nonsense.
"Dad, I'm sorry, I was wrong." He lowered his head sincerely.
The group that followed was the same group that had gone to Pengcheng to move the treasure last time; they silently looked away.
It's best to avoid watching the fun of treasure hunting enthusiasts, lest you get indiscriminately attacked by the leaders.
"Yes, Stinky Egg was wrong, Dad. I'll punish him by making you eat grilled fish."
"Hurry up and go, or I'll skin you alive if your father goes hungry."
The person shouting about skinning someone appeared to be waving their claws menacingly, but was actually pushing the person away from the gun emplacement.
Xiao Dan laughed in exasperation.
A son grows up and no longer obeys his father; this brat has already turned her back on him for miles.
She was afraid that she would make things difficult for her stinky guy.
The father, feeling a pang of jealousy, said, "No need, you guys eat. We brought some dry food. Here's the roast duck for you. Xiao Xie, take us to see the cave. Let's finish moving things as soon as possible and go home."
Out of sight, out of mind, sigh~
However, when he returned from the cave after settling the hauling work, all the fish, big and small, were gone, leaving only rows of grilled fish, their aroma filling the air.
A cloth bag sits on a rock, and a note is placed underneath the bag, which reads:
Dad, we're going to the next stop. You can scold that brat next time we meet. Be careful, everyone. There are insect-repelling herbs in the cloth bag.
He looked up and could only see a row of large bamboo rafts floating on the distant river through his binoculars, with a row of smelly guys with their feet up on the rafts.
No one paddled; the bamboo raft drifted on its own, and it was quite fast.
Zhou Dayu and Zhou Xiaoyu: We're holding onto them, we're running away, how can we not be fast?
Looking at the gradually calming river surface, Xiao Dan shook his head and chuckled.
Now they've all hidden where he can't reach them.
He knew that where he couldn't see, there were definitely those bastards of the boss there, and they probably had a part in the performance just now.
He stared at the river for a long time, then sat down and ate a fish. Finally, he couldn't resist and dialed the phone. Chou Chou answered.
"Dad Xiao, what's up? My brother is giving Shishi a massage and doesn't have time to answer the phone."
They've run far enough that the older brother won't get beaten anymore.
He wanted to say something, but after opening his mouth, he only said, "Ugly, you're a steady child, so you have to take good care of them."
Chou Chou nodded, "Daddy Xiao, I will. Don't worry, my brother is very steady..."
"Whoa, the rapids are coming! Hold on tight! Big fish, little fish, turn! Whoosh! Haha, Shishi, are you fast?"
"Not enough, faster, faster, ahhh!"
Upon recognizing the voices of his supposedly composed son-in-law and daughter, Dan's hand holding the phone trembled involuntarily; his heart had suffered another inhuman blow that day.
"Ugly, what's going on?"
"It's alright, Dad Xiao. We just encountered some rapids. My brother and Shishi are just skating like ice skaters, having a great time..."
Thump~, thump~
Two crisp splashes of water came through the phone, and Xiao Dan's heart jumped into his throat. "Chou Chou, did you fall into the water?"
Although I know that with my son-in-law there, nothing will happen, I still can't help but worry.
He heard it clearly; it was the sound of an object falling into the water.
"Zhou Dayu's tail got caught on something, causing the bamboo raft to tilt. Da Liu lost her footing and fell into the water. Nannan rushed to pull her up but couldn't, and she fell in too. Brother put her into his spatial storage, so she's alright, but..."
"But what?" Xiao Dan looked at the shimmering river surface, his brows furrowed.
I just heard two more splashes. The bamboo raft has gone far away, and I can't see anything even with binoculars. It's driving me crazy.
“A woman jumped into the river. Shishi and her brother went down to rescue her. Mr. Xiao, we’re going to meet up with Shishi and her brother. We’ll call you later.”
To jump into a river in a rapid current—what immense injustice must one have suffered to warrant such a death wish?
"Okay, okay, Ugly, you all need to be careful."
The elderly father waited anxiously for news, while the couple successfully rescued the person and brought them ashore.
The woman looked to be around twenty years old and was unconscious when she was rescued.
The water flow was rapid and swift; if Xie Lin hadn't been there and used the spatial barrier to quickly intercept it, people would have been swept away long ago.
