Sensing resistance, Ye Beiping could only helplessly say, "Sister, it's me."
"Waaaaah."
With her mouth covered, Ye Xiaoxin could only struggle for a moment before giving up.
It was pitch black, so eye contact was useless.
After a while, Ye Beiping released Ye Xiaoxin and whispered, "Shh."
Ye Xiaoxin naturally understood.
The three of them stood by a large rock near the educated youth settlement, watching.
After a few minutes, Ye Xiaoxin became a little impatient: "Are we just going to wait here?"
Hou Baolin was also undecided, so he could only nudge Ye Beiping's arm.
"Um."
Ye Beiping could only respond softly, then, as if thinking of something, said, "What's the use of the three of us rushing in now? We definitely need to find out what Jiang Enhua is up to here, and once we've confirmed it, we'll send someone to arrest her next time."
Hou Baolin and Ye Xiaoxin thought about it and agreed with this statement.
The cold winter made the two of them shiver, and they dared not expose any skin on their bodies.
It was already past 10 p.m., and the cold air had begun to descend.
If it weren't so dark that they couldn't see anything, they would definitely have been able to see that their breath was foggy.
One minute...
Five minutes...
Ten minutes...
A full half hour passed.
Only then did the educated youth settlement begin to stir a little.
Hearing the noise, the three of them immediately hid behind a rock.
Because there were only enough stones to cover two people, Ye Beiping saw the flashlight beam about to leave the courtyard of the educated youth settlement and kicked Hou Baolin down without saying a word.
In one fell swoop, Hou Baolin slid directly onto an inverted slope.
"Ouch..." Hou Baolin, who was in pain, made a sound of alarm. He quickly covered his mouth and dared not move.
"who?"
Jiang Enhua, who had just stepped out of the courtyard, immediately called out.
This terrified Ye Beiping and his two companions so much that they were practically sweating.
They still don't know what Jiang Enhua is doing, so they can't expose him.
It's been exposed, and it might be hard to detect in the future.
After all, they had limited time and couldn't afford to waste it all in Pingba Village with Jiang Enhua just to avoid making money.
Seeing that no one responded, Jiang Enhua frowned and shone his flashlight on a large rock next to the yard.
I want to go there, but I don't dare.
As the second beam of flashlight slowly approached, a man's voice came from behind: "What are you being so paranoid about? Who would come here in this freezing weather?"
"Go back quickly."
Jiang Enhua glanced at the person in the shadows, pursed her lips, and tugged at her clothes: "Then don't forget what you promised me, or I don't know how we'll get through the New Year."
"Don't worry, I'll go to town to buy it for you tomorrow." After a pause, two beams of light suddenly shone haphazardly in the darkness, as if out of control, and the man's voice came again: "Hmm, how about we go back and do it again?"
"Hiss! Go to hell."
Jiang Enhua's voice rang out: "Let me go right now, I'm freezing to death."
Ye Beiping and Ye Xiaoxin couldn't bear to listen to what was said after that; the unbearable sounds didn't stop for a full five or six minutes.
Then the two beams of light quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Only then did Ye Beiping dare to peek out, looking at the two beams of flashlight that had gone their separate ways.
Once the person was out of sight, Ye Xiaoxin spoke up: "I never expected Jiang Enhua to be fooling around with some random guy here."
Ye Beiping simply showed a look of disgust.
Unaware that the people on the slope behind them had already climbed up, they angrily asked, "You've gone too far! You kicked me down without even saying a word!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Beiping felt a little embarrassed.
There was no other way; the situation was urgent. If they didn't kick Hou Baolin, the three of them would definitely be discovered.
Pfft!
Ye Xiaoxin burst out laughing: "You're smart enough not to yell."
"Hmph." Hou Baolin snorted coldly, unwilling to speak.
Then a voice came from afar: "Beiping, Beiping?"
Upon hearing the voice, Ye Beiping recognized Wu Di and could only say to the two of them, "Let's go back. It's freezing. We can talk about it when we get back."
"Yes," Ye Xiaoxin and Hou Baolin responded in unison.
Poor Wu Di, he ran an unknown distance tonight, and when he finally made it to the educated youth settlement, Ye Beiping and Hou Baolin had to carry him back the way he came.
All that could be heard was Wu Di's weak voice saying, "The production team's donkeys can't keep working like this. Put me down, put me down."
Pfft!
An accusation that went unanswered only drew laughter from the other three.
