Chapter 229 - [Food Becomes Vomit] Punishment (2) (1/2)
Mark tossed the wood at the poachers causing their clothes to be on fire.
By the time they got rid of the fire, Mark and the little elephant were gone. The poachers cursed for a bit then packed everything up, getting ready to enter the forest to go after Mark and the little elephant again.
The poachers left for a while and then the group finally dared to reveal themselves.
Lin Yueqi sighed heavily and said, “We can’t let them catch Mark. He got shot so he probably wouldn’t be able to run far. His location changed. We need to help the safety organization confirm Mark’s location. Only then can we promise his safety. The little elephant has watched his parents being ruthlessly killed already. If he has to watch his adoptive father get murdered too, who knows how painful it’d be for him?…We have to help him.”
Leita hesitated before saying, “No, I need to make sure you’re safe and don’t encounter any danger. My goal is to protect you guys. Plus, your goal is to track the elephant’s location not to die.”
Zhou Qing was silent for a moment before saying, “I want to rescue them.”
Huang Hui also lifted his hand weakly. “I…I also want to.”
“Me too.”
Lin Yueqi thought of the poacher’s weapons and felt a bit apprehensive. She did want to survive, survive healthily. However, she didn’t have the heart to watch as Mark and the little elephant with such human nature were ruthlessly murdered.
Innature, although the strongest animal was crowned king, the weakest were eliminated. But towards these protected animals, they shouldn’t be cruelly and illegally hunted.
She wore a determined and stubborn gaze. “Those people are hunting Mark because they want money, no? I’ll give them money. I’ll give them however much money they want. Even if I become bankrupt, it’s fine. I have millions in savings as well as a few houses. I can get some money from selling the houses. Kidnappers are willing to let go of their hostages once they receive the money so I believe they’ll let the elephants go once they get their money. We’re not in a desperate situation yet. We’re really not going to try and escape them?”
Everyone sunk into silence.
Lin Yueqi swallowed her saliva and turned to look at Lu Ting. “Father Lu, if something happens to me, I hand the little chubby bun to you. Don’t pamper her too much or feed her too much meat. She’s too fat and is overly nourished. She even started puberty earlier than other children. That’s not good. You have to be harsh.”
Lu Ting was speechless.
