"It's simple. All you have to do is call my dad and tell him where we are. He'll find us as long as he knows the approximate area."
"That won't work. We're already quite far from C City. I heard that the city was sealed off. How did you guys get out?" Zhang Manlin was curious.
"This man is very cunning. He took us on a dirt road and a mountain road. It took us a long time to get out. Plus, this place is very secluded," Pudding explained.
"That's even more difficult. Even if I tell your dad, you guys would've been taken to the next destination by the time he gets here."
"Yes, but there's no better way," Pudding lowered her head and analyzed.
"I can call for reinforcements. My hometown is in this area. I know a lot of people here. I can call for reinforcements."
"Absolutely not."
"Why not?" Zhang Manlin asked.
"That man … has knives, guns, and explosives. If you bring reinforcements, you'll only implicate innocent people. I don't want that to happen …" Pudding had a lot of considerations. She didn't want to implicate more people because of her and her sister. When they were kidnapped by Huo Siyi, they almost killed that big dumb guy. Pudding still had lingering fears.
"But … if we let you guys get taken away, it'll be even harder to rescue you."
Pudding looked at Zhang Manlin's watch. "There's not much time left. I have to tell you quickly. Miss Zhang, since your hometown is here, then … you should know where the next destination is after this town."
"I know. It's Peach Blossom Village."
"Is that the only one?" Pudding asked.
"Yes. This is a mountainous area. Peach Blossom Village is the only way to get there if he keeps going down."
"How far is it?"
"About 50 miles."
"Very good, we should be able to make it in time. Just tell my dad to bring people to Peach Blossom Village. Don't worry, my dad is a big shot. He can even mobilize helicopters. Also, I, Handsome Su, will definitely have many ways to save us. You just need to inform them."
"But …" Zhang Manlin was about to say something.
Pudding interrupted her and continued, "Miss Zhang, I won't let you help us for free. Although I'm a child, I know how to repay kindness. You know why Little Bean and I teased you and targeted you before. I won't say too much, but if you help us this time, we definitely won't treat you badly. You should know my daddy's wealth. When the time comes, whether you want money, a car, a house, or a job … as long as it's within his means, he'll agree to it."
"I haven't thought about that. Even if it's a child I don't know, I won't just stand by and watch. I'm a very soft-hearted person," Zhang Manlin explained.
"You don't have to tell me these things. I want you to do what I want you to do right now. Call the phone right away. When I'm out, you have to call my dad. Don't call the police … Thank you."
With that, Pudding turned around and walked out.
Seeing Pudding come back from the washroom, He Yongjun's expression didn't change. He lowered his head and continued eating.
"Big Brother Jun, should we pack something for dinner? This place looks very desolate. If we keep walking like this, we might not even have food at the next stop," Shen Jiani asked worriedly.
"No, it's too troublesome to bring food. There's still a lot of bread, ham, and water in the car."
"Are you planning to fight a long battle?" Shen Jiani was shocked.
"Qin Chu isn't that easy to deal with. I've investigated him … We have to be more careful. Let's go."
With that, He Yongjun stood up, grabbed Pudding with one hand, and walked out.
Shen Jiani also grabbed Little Bean and dragged her out …
Not far away, Zhang Manlin watched this scene in silence …
