Tomb raiding: A mere 20 is nothing!

Chapter 22 Eyeballs fell onto someone's body

Outside the hotel, Wu Xie lit a cigarette, looked at the silent White Snake beside him, and got straight to the point.

"You can't mess with Shen Mingchao."

A very firm tone.

The White Snake looked helpless. "Wu Xie, I didn't intend to harm her."

Wu Xie glared at him: "Judging from how you were just now, you dare say you didn't have any other intentions?"

The White Snake, too lazy to hide anything, nodded directly: "I admit there is a little bit."

"You're quite honest."

Wu Xie then looked at the White Snake with new respect. However, he was very curious as to why the White Snake, who was usually so indifferent, would fall in love so easily.

"Why? You're not that kind of person."

A bad thought popped into Wu Xie's mind: Could the White Snake be in the same situation as them?

This idiot mistook this situation for lust at first sight; to put it more politely, he thought he had fallen in love at first sight, so he's now frantically showing off.

The thought of this possibility made Wu Xie's vision go black.

No, why is there another one?

Whether to confront him or not became a dilemma, and in the end, Wu Xie chose not to ask. Although Bai She was his subordinate, she was far less trusted by him than Xiao Ge and Xiao Hua.

Regardless of whether the White Snake is affected or not, if he rashly speaks out, he may very well expose the weaknesses of all three of them.

As the cigarette burned out, Wu Xie's patience ran out, and he repeated, "White Snake, you really can't mess with Shen Mingchao. Of course, I won't interfere with your contact with her, but you'd better be careful and not try anything funny."

That's all I'll say.

Just as Wu Xie was about to turn around, the White Snake spoke.

He seemed somewhat troubled: "I don't know what's wrong with me, but I think feelings are something that can't be controlled. When you encounter them, you encounter them, and you can't avoid them."

Wu Xie: "......"

What he really wanted to say was that no matter how affectionate he was, it was useless; the person involved wouldn't hear a thing.

So he didn't say anything and went straight through the sensor door, and in an instant, laughter and cheerful voices came from inside.

Wu Xie stood in the hotel lobby, staring blankly at the harmonious scene.

This plan has been implemented for so long that it has almost exhausted all his efforts, and only now can he feel a little bit of human warmth.

He didn't want to investigate why the White Snake fell in love.

But for people in their line of work, love is ultimately too much of a luxury.

Avoid getting involved if you can avoid it.

Taking a deep breath and composing himself, Wu Xie walked over there.

"Hey Fatty, what are you guys researching? I can hear you guys from way over there."

When the fat man saw Wu Xie, he immediately put his arm around Wu Xie's shoulder and explained to him, "I went to the bar to find something to eat, but they were out of egg tarts. I asked the staff, and they said the worker who makes egg tarts had gone home. Then the girl said she can make them, that she used to make them at home all the time, and that she wanted to show us her skills, and also to demonstrate her abilities to Xiao Hua."

"Xiao Hua?" Wu Xie asked, puzzled.

The fat guy nudged Wu Xie's shoulder: "Naive, have you forgotten? Didn't the girl say she wanted to apply for a pastry chef position at Xiao Hua's company?"

"Is she serious?" Wu Xie was surprised. He thought Shen Mingchao was just making up a reason because she had nowhere else to turn.

The fat man nodded seriously: "It seems that he is serious."

Wu Xie suddenly remembered something and asked, "She's wearing sunglasses, is that convenient?"

"We thought of that too." The fat man glanced in Zhang Qilan's direction, leaned over and whispered, "We were thinking that wearing sunglasses would be inconvenient, so we decided not to, but then the young man got up and quietly turned the lights in the hall to warm light."

"Tsk tsk tsk, incredible, incredible! Honey actually got into Zhang Zhang's mouth! This will definitely be recorded in the history of the Zhang family!" the fat man exclaimed.

Following the fat man's voice, Wu Xie unconsciously turned his gaze to the busy person.

When a normally cheerful person suddenly becomes quiet and focused on their own thing, they unconsciously exude a unique charm.

In particular, the person had a beautiful face, with bright eyes and a rosy complexion, like a ripe and high-quality peach.

Everyone fell silent, and for a moment, only the occasional sounds from Shen Mingchao could be heard in the hotel lobby.

The fat man, who was happily waiting to eat egg tarts, suddenly sensed something was wrong. He glanced around discreetly and broke out in a cold sweat.

Didn't we all agree before that it wouldn't have much of an impact, and that he should just ignore it and interact normally with the girl?

Why are their eyes practically popping out of their sockets?!

Does this mean the impact is minimal?

He looks like he's completely infatuated with someone and has lost all sense of direction!

Humans are visual creatures, and in this respect, Wu Xie is far ahead of the competition.

He just likes good-looking people. Even though his personality has been suppressed in recent years, old habits die hard.

For a fleeting moment, an even more sordid thought popped into his mind: if the person in the picture were Shen Mingchao, it wouldn't be too hard to accept.

Thinking of this, Wu Xie despised himself a little. He must have learned bad things from Hei Xiazi, otherwise why would his bottom line be so low now?

Xie Yuchen stared at him, purely out of curiosity, because this was the first time he had seen Shen Mingchao's appearance clearly.

He had to admit that those bright, clear eyes were truly the finishing touch, making him unconsciously linger for a while longer.

As for Zhang Qilin, although he kept staring in the direction of the counter, no one could be sure whether he was looking at people or simply spacing out.

The boldest and most proactive one here was probably the White Snake, who was in his early twenties. He went straight over to Shen Mingchao and asked if he needed any help.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Shen Mingchao knew that the other person was trying to unleash that damned masculine charm again.

Of course, she chose to grant her wish.
