Tomb raiding: A mere 20 is nothing!

Fearing that the black bear might not understand, Hodolf even slowed down his speech and explained it to him word by word in a "thoughtful" manner.

"Oh."

Hei Xiazi chuckled, turned his head slightly, his sunglasses concealing the emotions in his eyes, leaving only his cold and hard jawline visible.

"I thought it was something special. I was thinking that if it was a deadly poison, I would have to say something memorable as my last words. But it turns out it's nothing special."

He glanced coldly at Huo Daofu, his tone laced with undisguised sarcasm: "You really are as annoying as ever. Even if Li Chu is a troublemaker, at least he does things openly. But you, you resort to underhanded tricks behind people's backs."

"What do you mean by 'openly'?"

Shen Mingchao couldn't help but interject.

This is the natural attraction of gossip to people; Hei Xiazi's words clearly have a hidden meaning.

Knowing Li Chu as she did, she knew he was the kind of person who would fight to the death if pushed to the limit. Back in the desert of Gutongjing, to avoid being captured by the Wang family, he…

Just as I was thinking of this, Hei Xiazi chimed in: "That kid used the same trick again, pulled out a C4, and almost sent us all flying. To be honest, there aren't many people in my life who can make me see things in a completely different light. He's a real character."

Shen Mingchao blinked, wanting to ask about what happened next, but then thought it was pointless. These people were standing right in front of her, so they definitely hadn't exploded; otherwise, it would be supernatural.

She shook her head with considerable regret.

"What a pity, our little prince of explosives failed. Sigh."

Black Bear and Hodolf: ......

What is she regretting?! Should we say that it's no wonder she and Li Chu are siblings?

At this point, the conversation has gone a bit off-topic.

Black Bear was the first to act. He slowly walked forward, and with a flick of his finger, easily took the medicine bottle from Hordov's hand.

I raised my arm and looked at it in the sunlight; the pills in the bottle looked perfectly ordinary.

The curve of his lips slowly widened.

Behind the sunglasses, those eyes, always hidden in the shadows, were as sinister as ink that could not be dissolved.

They were worried about how to break out of the current predicament, since being a deliveryman who never met in person wasn't very effective.

The medicine came at just the right time.

Black Bear curled his lips and sighed, "But... this is a good thing."

Ok?

good stuff?

Shen Mingchao couldn't believe what he had just heard, and turned to look at Hei Xiazi as if he were a monster.

She knew Hei Xiazi liked to do things unpredictably, but when it came to a man's bottom line, even if he was unreliable, he shouldn't have done it...

Just as she thought of this, she suddenly stopped.

Suddenly, Hei Xiazi chuckled softly, poured a pill into his palm, and without the slightest hesitation, swallowed it cleanly.

The smell of medicine was strong, and Black Bear hissed, his brows furrowed slightly, and he glared at Huo Daofu, his tone full of disdain: "This medicine is way too bitter."

Hodor was momentarily stunned.

He originally thought that as long as Hei Xiazi hesitated even slightly, he could take this opportunity to sow discord and interfere.

Even if they don't hesitate, they will at least try to bargain, because although this person does things unexpectedly, he never does anything that loses money.

I didn't expect it to be so straightforward this time.

He miscalculated.

Hei Xiazi doesn't care what others think; he only cares about one person's opinion.

So he held the medicine bottle up to the light, turned his gaze to Shen Mingchao, and said with certainty:

"Don't worry, I'll take care of this. None of them can escape. I'll make sure they take the medicine."

Since you've entered this game, you have to pay a price. If you can't even keep your innocence, then get out of here as soon as possible and don't stay and get in everyone's way.

Hei Xiazi spoke as if it were the most obvious thing in the world, but Shen Mingchao found it somewhat absurd and his voice suddenly rose.

"When did I say you needed to take medication? Don't take it upon yourself to do things your own way, okay? Even if you did take medication, what good would it do? Does that mean everything that happened before is wiped clean? You like to torture yourselves, what does that have to do with me?"

Yes.

What does it have to do with her?

Shen Mingchao suddenly had a sudden realization.

Every single one of these people is a menace. If any one of them dies, it would be like ridding the people of a scourge.

Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and waved her hand: "Fine, do whatever you want."

She looked up at the two people in front of her, a mocking smile playing on her lips.

"But if you really get sick from eating it, you can let me know. We've known each other for a while, and I'm not going to be so heartless. I'll definitely send you a big red envelope."

Upon hearing this, Hei Xiazi's lips immediately curled downwards, and he shamelessly began to howl on the spot.

"Qingqing~ you're really hurting me with your words now. One pill a month is fine for keeping me virgin, but if it really ruins me, I might as well just take my life~"

Shen Mingchao rolled his eyes dramatically, his words equally merciless.

"Don't try to get close to me. You're over a hundred years old; by seniority, you should be my ancestor. Is it appropriate to keep calling me 'Qingqing'?"

"And what would I do with your life? Please, what are you doing, a centenarian writing about giving away lives? Don't make me laugh, you're just giving people things they don't want."

Seeing Shen Mingchao's disgusted expression, Hei Xiazi felt a tightness in his chest for a moment.

But this was also the first time Shen Mingchao had spoken so much to him since they lost contact.

Looking at that small mouth opening and closing, he suddenly felt that even if the words were unpleasant to hear, just watching it was a beautiful thing.

Just then, an untimely laugh rang out.

Black Bear's eyes were like knives, shooting towards the gloating Hordorf beside him.

"cough--"

"Sorry, I didn't manage my facial expressions well."

Despite being Black Bear, whose strength far surpassed Black Bear's, Huo Daofu suppressed a smile but couldn't hold it in any longer, and simply burst out laughing: "A centenarian acting as an ancestor, haha..."

Black Bear: (▼皿▼#)

Target locked, hunt time!

He stretched out his long arm and grabbed Hodor's neck, while using his other hand to forcefully pry open his mouth.

At the same time, he popped the medicine bottle open with a "snap" and made as if to pour the medicine in.

"You think you're young? I'll teach you a lesson today about what it means to respect the elderly and care for the young!"

Hordorf struggled desperately, kicking and flailing his arms and legs, still refusing to admit defeat: "At least I'm younger than you!"

Black Bear gritted his teeth: "Damn it! Today I'll teach you the consequences of your foul mouth!"

Seeing the two of them start fighting on the spot, Shen Mingchao stood calmly to the side with his arms crossed.

"I don't care what the final outcome is, just remember to clean up properly. If you want to leave, then leave; if you want to go to the hospital, then go to the hospital. Don't bother me, or don't blame me for calling the police."

"Alright, I won't see you off any further."

After saying that, she looked away, closed the door completely, and sighed softly.

This group of people has repeatedly challenged her understanding of the world.

No problem.

She can just watch the show; she won't lose anything anyway.

What Shen Mingchao didn't expect was that after sending away the two big lunatics, a little lunatic came.

Moreover, it is even more so.
