While munching on the peach, he said, "If these peaches were big and delicious, they probably wouldn't last even in this remote mountain village."
Seeing how much he enjoyed eating it, Lu Nanfang couldn't resist picking one herself.
After hesitating for a long time, I finally followed his example, wiped my clothes, and prepared to eat.
Sun Sainan was speechless. She wanted to stop it, but in the end, she didn't say anything.
He did it that way because he was used to being rough and didn't mind the itchy feeling of peach fuzz sticking to his body.
But Lu Nanfang is just a young girl with skin so delicate it looks like you could squeeze water out of it. I'm afraid she'll start feeling unwell soon.
He didn't stop them, firstly because the other person moved too quickly; by the time he saw it, the person had already wiped themselves twice under the hem of their clothes. Secondly, he figured the other person was a grown adult and should know what was going on.
Also, the conditions in the apocalypse don't allow for much sentimentality. Although eating without washing food can easily lead to illness, you get used to those illnesses after a while!
Besides, these peaches are all naturally grown and have not been sprayed with pesticides, so eating them won't kill you.
The twisted logic spun in Sun Sainan's head for a moment, and she was just about to switch to another peach tree to continue picking peaches when she realized that the two people who had run away had not yet returned.
Sun Sainan asked, "Did they tell you whether it's the main account or the alt account?"
Lu Nanfang shook her head, "No, I just said my stomach hurt and I couldn't hold it in."
"It's been about ten minutes since they left, they should be back by now!" Sun Sainan said, somewhat uneasy.
"It's alright, they don't know you came down from the tree. If they were worried about being spied on, they would definitely walk further away. Walk for five or six minutes, and take care of personal matters. Who knows, they might still be there holding your hand. Let's wait a bit longer."
"Alright, let's wait another five minutes. If they haven't returned by then, we'll look around the neighborhood."
Lu Nanfang nodded and said nothing more.
What he was really thinking was, "You two better hurry up and get to the destination. Otherwise, Captain Sun and I won't have had a chance to search properly before we find you two. All my planning will have been for nothing!"
Five minutes later, seeing that the surroundings were empty, Sun Sainan couldn't sit still any longer.
He chose the tallest peach tree, climbed it, and looked around, only to find that there was no one in sight.
Sun Sainan climbed down the tree and took out her phone to call the two people. She found their phones were switched off.
Sun Sainan panicked. He grabbed Lu Nanfang, abandoned his backpack, and chased after Yuan Ruoxi in the direction she had left.
Lu Nanfang didn't say anything and followed him running forward. However, girls don't have that much stamina, so they were somewhat slowed down.
Sun Sainan was somewhat annoyed, but he couldn't just abandon Lu Nanfang. They'd already lost two; if he lost another, would he still have his job?
But the focus isn't on the work, it's on the superpowered individuals!
If the two of them really ran away by sneaking off, that would be fine, but if they were captured by some dark force, then they would be doomed.
Although Qinghua Kingdom's protection is quite thorough, and they have tried their best to block information about people with superpowers on the Internet, who knows if there will be loopholes?
As for those forces in China that covet the supernatural space, they are nothing but clowns, and Sun Sainan is not afraid of them.
But what if Yuan Ruoxi is kidnapped by them? He doesn't know which faction they belong to. If they start fighting, he won't know who they're targeting.
In that case, the storage device will really be lost!
His mind raced, but he didn't stop pulling Lu Nanfang along. He was so anxious that he was covered in sweat and didn't notice the smile on the woman's face beside him.
Those two people seem to have already run away. And they really did head in the direction she had given them.
Now we're just waiting for those incredibly capable middle-aged women to arrive.
Lu Nanfang breathed heavily, completely ignoring her heart pounding as her mind was filled with the excitement of her plan about to succeed.
Half an hour later, Sun Sainan stopped. Looking around at the still deserted surroundings, she realized she couldn't keep this a secret any longer.
He quickly took out his emergency communicator and sent them his location and a brief description of the incident.
He then grabbed Lu Nanfang and asked her if she knew anything, but Lu Nanfang just shook her head and said she knew nothing.
Because she had run so fast, when she stopped, her little face was flushed and her eyes were watery, making her look quite pitiful.
In particular, because she hadn't dodged the weeds and branches, she inevitably scratched her hands, which made Sun Sainan reluctant to press her for answers.
He sat down and took a deep breath before saying, "You need to calm down quickly. We still need to search the surrounding area. If something happens to them, neither of us will be able to escape."
Lu Nanfang nodded, seemingly agreeing with these words.
What he was really thinking was: "Even if they hold you accountable, it'll be you. I'm just an insignificant person, what could possibly happen to me? At most, I'll be locked up and interrogated for a few days, but then I'll just have to be released."
So now, I'm not afraid of them getting into trouble, I'm afraid they won't get into trouble at all!
However, she couldn't say these thoughts out loud. She had to keep them to herself and pretend to be innocent so that she could continue to cause trouble for Yuan Ruoxi.
Of course, she wasn't afraid of Li Sikai and his group investigating.
Anyway, she didn't come up with the idea for today's event. She only mentioned it briefly, and didn't say anything else.
Moreover, even if Yuan Ruoxi was beaten up by those fierce women, it was her own fault. If she hadn't been so wicked and wanted to gain something for nothing, she wouldn't have been caught red-handed.
To be fair, she did leave the other party a way out.
If Yuan Ruoxi knew when to stop, she might actually be able to steal a batch of grain. But the key is that she's insatiable, and she'll probably be caught red-handed on the spot.
Not long after, Sun Sainan saw that Lu Nanfang had recovered, so she took her hand and walked in another direction.
They've been running in this direction for half an hour and haven't seen anyone yet, so they must have changed direction midway.
But which of the four corners should I go?
Sun Sainan glanced at Lu Nanfang, who knew what he meant. After thinking for a moment, Lu Nanfang said, "Those two like to have fun. Who knows, they might have gone to the west. I heard there are wild grapes there."
Sun Sainan looked at Lu Nanfang suspiciously and asked, "Are you very familiar with this place?"
Lu Nanfang smiled, showing no qualms about the question.
"Yes, I've been here before. The peaches you're eating today were picked by me."
As for why I came, well, I overheard some of the aunties saying there were lots of wild fruits around here while I was working, and I was craving some, so I came over."
Are you alone?
Lu Nanfang nodded, looking somewhat forlorn. "Tong Xianbao has to be with Yuan Ruoxi and has completely forgotten about me, his official girlfriend. There's nothing I can do but come here alone."
