Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 306 Overnight
"Me? Forget it... I've said it before, I never want to work the land again in my life. Risking my life for wealth and exploring ancient secrets isn't worth it..."

Wu Xie was taken aback upon hearing this, then gave a wry smile.

Since returning from the underwater tomb, Wu Xie has said similar things more than once.

However, Hu Ming simply smiled mysteriously and made no comment.

Not going?
Wu Sansheng knows Wu Xie too well; he has plenty of ways to drag Wu Xie down with him.

He has already laid the groundwork; now he's just waiting for the right moment to throw out the bait and then sit back and wait for the fish to take the bait.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

When the time comes, as long as Wu Sansheng reveals even the slightest bit of his current whereabouts to Wu Xie through certain channels that is related to the Heavenly Palace on the Clouds, Wu Xie will be unable to escape.

Wu Xie values ​​relationships extremely much!
This typhoon lasted for more than a week.

Hu Ming and his group stayed on the island peacefully for more than a week.

One noteworthy point is that, starting from about the third day after arriving on the island, Yin Nanfeng stopped raiding Hu Ming's place at night.

This girl's period ended, and she felt insecure. She chickened out, stopped flirting, and became incredibly serious.
I chickened out!!!
In short, these few days of sheltering from the typhoon have been a rare period of rest for everyone.

Once the typhoon subsided and flights resumed, everyone hurriedly began their journey home.

The day after leaving Yongxing Island, at Haikou Airport on the mainland, the group waved goodbye to the fat man.

The fat man is going back to Beijing.

Wu Xie and Hu Ming, needless to say, are going to Hangzhou; they're on completely different routes.

Hangzhou is Wu Xie's home and also near Hu Ming's temporary residence.

Yin Nanfeng preferred to stay by Hu Ming's side rather than return to Beijing to take charge of the overall situation.

As for the guy who disappears mysteriously, is he still the same guy?
About four hours later, the group parted ways at Hangzhou Airport and went home.

Hu Ming and Yin Nanfeng returned to the villa that Wu Xie had helped them buy earlier.

Another interesting thing worth mentioning is...
On the night I returned to Hangzhou, something quite interesting happened.

That evening, after washing up, Hu Ming had just lay down on his bed in his room.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open from the outside.

"Huh? What's this all about now?"

"Weren't you all cowards before? How come you had the guts to sneak up on me tonight?"

Hu Ming didn't even open his eyes before he knew that the person outside the door was Yin Nanfeng.

It wasn't just because the two of them were the only ones in the huge villa.

It was also because of Hu Ming's spying... cough cough, with his extraordinary hearing, he could hear every rustle and movement in the vicinity. Hu Ming knew the moment Yin Nanfeng left her room late at night instead of sleeping.

But to everyone's surprise, she came to Hu Ming's room again.

"Tch! What do you mean, 'cowardly'? Do you think I, Yin Nanfeng, am that kind of person? I'm not that kind of timid little girl!"

Wearing a black nightgown, Yin Nanfeng hummed softly and lay down in Hu Ming's arms without any hesitation.

This girl really likes the color black.

"Yes, yes, Miss Yin, can you tell me why you suddenly ran away on Yongxing Island a few days ago, and then came back today?"

Hu Ming, amused, put his arm around Yin Nanfeng as if they were old friends.

Well, this isn't the first time the two of them have been lying together to rest innocently.

"It's just... I just didn't want to be in a place like a hotel, Uncle. You used to be an old man with a girlfriend, don't you even understand this little thing about women?"

"If I were really a chicken, I would have flown straight back to Beijing with Fatty at Haikou Airport this morning. How could I possibly go back to your home with you!"

She rolled her eyes in annoyance.

Yin Nanfeng didn't know whether Hu Ming was pretending to be stupid or was really stupid.

After all, he was able to secretly run away from Beijing to Hangzhou to find Hu Ming, and later he even traveled thousands of miles to the Xisha Islands.

Need I say more that a pampered young lady would go to such lengths for a man?
"Oh?"

Hu Ming raised an eyebrow, still pretending to know what he didn't.

"Let me tell you, Uncle Ming, I know you weren't exactly a respectable person when you were young. You had more tricks up your sleeve than most young people do these days!"

"Most importantly, Uncle Ming, my Crescent Moon Hotel is still missing a male owner!"

As he spoke, Yin Nanfeng suddenly flipped over and sat astride Hu Ming, cupping Hu Ming's incredibly tender face in his hands, and said earnestly.

"You know me. I'm a very confident person, even arrogant. Once I've set my mind on someone, I'm confident I can win them over! Besides, I just want to be your woman, not for you to marry into my family. I'm not as stupid as the Huo family. How could a man like you become a live-in son-in-law!"

"Hmph, you're destined to be the master of the Crescent Hotel! I've said it before, even the Jade Emperor himself couldn't stop me today!"

The beauty mark under her eye made Yin Nanfeng's radiant smile even more captivating.

Before he could finish speaking, she had already cut off Hu Ming's next words.

Hu Ming didn't resist. Instead, he reached out and turned off the bedside lamp and his phone to avoid being disturbed at a crucial moment.

then…
