Shao Xiang did not speak, and neither did Fang Ya. The two of them just sat in silence.
Not long after, He Peng returned home from school. It was a little strange to see Shao Xiang and Fang Ya sitting in the yard.
"Grandma, Mom, what are you doing here?" He Peng walked forward, took off his schoolbag, and put it aside.
Fang Ya looked at He Peng's sweaty face and asked, "Why are you sweating all over?"
He Peng wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve. "I caught a thief on the way back."
Fang Ya and Shao Xiang were a little surprised to hear He Peng's words.
"Caught a thief?" Fang Ya looked at the traces of mud on He Peng's face and asked, "Are you hurt?"
He Peng shook his head and said proudly, "I'm fine! The technique that dad taught me is really good!"
Fang Ya smiled helplessly and asked, "What about the thief?"
He Peng grinned and said, "He has been taken away by the police!"
