Chapter 20 Nicks other relatives and friends also came to help at Peach Garden Nick handed out gloves to each of them and said , Thanks for helping with the fruit picking No problem .
The four of them put on the gloves and straw hats , and began picking fruits with the experienced villagers .
At first , the other three were quite enthusiastic , but after a while , they started to feel some soreness in their hands and necks and felt uncomfortable looking up The sun gradually became scorching , burning on their skin Demi couldnt help but exclaim , Its a good thing Lucy had the foresight to prepare the strow hats in advance , or wed probably get sunburned .
Mel and Parker agreed .
They were all celebrities , and their faces were important So , Lucy was both considerate and foresighted , which was very thoughtful .
As they chatted and picked fruits , although tired , they felt encouraged by Lucys bright smile and lively movements and kept going After a while , Nick brought over some newly bought bottled water and handed it to them .
Lucy looked up and smiled , Thank you .
As she saw Nick , her expression slightly tightened At this moment , Nicks forehead appeared a bit dark , and the area around his childrens fortune was becoming increasingly dark and greenish .
She frowned and asked , Where is your son ? Nick smiled and said .
That kid is quite wild , he went out early this morning .
Nicks son was only seven years old , too young to be of much help , so Nick didnt bring him to Peach Garden .
Seven years old is also the most mischievous age , running around the village with little supervision from adults .
Lucys frown deepened , Hurry up and find him .
From what I see , your son might be in danger .
Nick was stunned , He .
What danger could he be in ? From the look , it seems he might drown , Lucy said , staring at the increasingly dark area around Nicks childrens fortune .
She began to calculate quickly and then decisively ran toward the orchards exit .
Hurry ! We might run out of time ! Her actions startled everyone Parker immediately put down the basket and ran after her , Lets go check it out ! Mel and Demi exchanged glances , knowing that Lucy wasnt the type to speak without reason , and quickly followed .
As they ran , the photographer grabbed his equipment and followed as well .
Nick , initially confused and unsure whether to believe this , suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of panic .
He gritted his teeth and also hurriedly followed Seeing this , the others also put down their things and followed suit .
The live stream was filled with confusion .
is what Lucy said true ? Can she really read faces ? ] Even if she can , she doesnt know where Nicks son is Running out like this , will she be able to find him ? | Is she just trying to show off and steal the spotlight ? After being quiet for two days , is inally showing her true colors ? | ( if its just for show , its a bit too much cursing someones child like that ( Ill wait and see .
If it turns out to be fake .
Ill unfollow ] Almost everyone was glued to the screen , looking anxious Many viewers from other live streams also came over , attracting a lot of passersby to join the watch Ashleys fans and Cobers fans clashed in a heated argument , with waves of sarcasm and criticism flying back and forth Other fans got annoyed and started counter attacking , leading to small scale fights .
Outside Peach Gardens , Lucy calculated the direction based on the energy from Nick and pinpointed the location of his son She ran in that direction and , about ten minutes later , arrived at a reservoir .
This reservoir was built by the village for irrigation , as Lucy had heard from the village secretary Upon reaching the reservoir , she saw two boys playing in the water in the center , completely unaware of the approaching danger .
Lucy could see from a distance that their foreheads were darkening , a sign of imminent danger .
She quickly took off her hat , gloves , and shoes and swam toward the two boys .
Those who followed her were stunned by the scene .
The live stream audience also found it bewildering Isnt Nicks son fine ? Although swimming in a reservoir is unsafe , they clearly know how to swim ] [ Why is Lucy jumping into the water to save them if she knows theyre fine ? ] Looks like this is a lost cause , quite funny ] [ As expected , shes just trying to create a spectacle , desperate for fame , but its all backfired on her , hasnt it ? Nick rushed over and , seeing his son sale , finally breathed a sigh of relief .
Spotting Lucy swimming over , he quickly shouted , You brat ! Get out of the water Nicks son turned his head and refused , No , I havent had enough fun yet ! Saying this , he swam even further into the deeper water .
His cousin followed closely behind Its fine , theres no real danger over there .
Just talk to the kids properly , someone nearby advised , Yeah , and that actress is just causing trouble .
She should get out too .
Before the words could fully leave their mouth , another splash was heard from the side Parker , already barefoot , had entered the water and was swimming toward Lucy .
He trusted her So , if she said there was danger and continued swimming , then there must be danger .
He had to h help The crowd was even more confused The live streams chat was filled with questions .
[ What is Parker doing ? Why did he jump in too ? ] [ Just get the kids to swim back .
If the adults enter the water , the kids will swim further , which makes it even more dangerous ] [ Arent they going to mess things up with their good intentions ? ] purpose , and now Parkers caught up in it tool [ its all Lucys fault .
Shes so desperate for fame that shes acting out on purp [ Lucys nothing but bad luck ! Just as the crowd was criticizing and confused , something unexpected happened .
The reservoir water surged violently , rushing forward .
Several towering waves immediately swept the two children into the water .
Ah ! Demi screamed in shock , Theyve been swept away ! Its over ! The reservoir gates been opened ! a villager shouted Every time the village releases water for irrigation , this is the scene .
The reservoir is built on a mountain , with over a dozen meters of height from the downstream irrigation area , and when the gates are opened , the water rushes down fiercely .
So , every time before the gates are opened , they ensure that everyone in the reservoir area is cleared out to prevent accidents .
No one knew why the gate had opened suddenly this time , and the two boys , unaware , had been swept away .
Nicks face turned pale , and his legs nearly gave out from fear as he stumbled forward .
My son … my son ! Tick , calm downl Jumping in now will only cost you your own life ! a villager hurriedly pulled him back , Besides , those two have already reached the children .
Theyll save them ! Nicks face was ashen as he deeply regretted not list Inot listening to the actress and jumping in earlier to save his son .
