They hadn't found him yet. Liu Duo was getting agitated, and her brows locked tightly.
Ye Ling saw that and panicked too, "Duo Er, Ran Er will be fine. Don't worry too much."
That was all he could say to comfort her, as well as himself.
Liu Duo looked at Ye Ling, who was sweating and breathing hard as he approached her. She draped an arm over his shoulder, "Ling, I'll listen to you. I won't fret, and neither will you. Alright?"
She didn't want anything to happen to Ye Ling when they hadn't even found Liu Ran yet! That would just double their trouble.
"Go home first," Ye Yang spoke. Perhaps Liu Ran had returned.
He was also worried about Ye Ling. He might get sick again, as the weather was hot, and he was under emotional stress.
Aunt Li agreed, "Right, let's go back first."
Old Liu had other ideas, "You all go back first. I'm heading back to the farm to retrieve our tools."
He hadn't forgotten about them.
Ye Yang nodded, and then he went home with the others.
