Tomb raiding: A mere 20 is nothing!

The word "boyfriend" floated down lightly, like a stone hitting their hearts.

The dreamlike bubble in my memory burst with a snap.

The two men's expressions instantly darkened.

Shen Mingchao's voice is very pleasant to hear.

But it's like a soft knife.

It's not as good as the previous insults.

If it's just something posted on social media, they can still fool themselves into thinking it's fake.

The facts are now clear.

How can they continue to deceive themselves?

And this suddenly appearing "boyfriend" clearly had no intention of making things easy for them.

Zhang Haixia sneered inwardly, but on the surface he was humble and polite, extending his hand to the two of them.

"Hello, you two. My wife... Chaochao mentioned you before."

They had previously agreed not to mention their wife in public.

Zhang Haixia felt a little regretful.

But I also know that this name sounds very strange when used outside.

"She said that you were all kind people who had taken care of her before. On behalf of my girlfriend, I, Shen, thank you all."

drop!

The two "good guy" cards have been credited to my account.

The irony is off the charts.

Wang Meng and the White Snake's faces darkened even more.

In contrast, Zhang Haixia remained calm and composed, seemingly unaware of the chill in the surrounding temperature.

Seeing the two of them frozen in place, not saying a word, he turned his head to look at Shen Mingchao with feigned confusion. Just as he was about to say something, a cold hand suddenly grabbed him.

Zhang Haixia looked up and met a pair of dark eyes.

The White Snake already had a delicate, feminine appearance, with medium-length black hair hanging over her forehead, and she wore a plain white robe. At this moment, her face was grim, her eyes were cold, and the pressure around her was frighteningly low.

They looked like water ghosts that had crawled out of deep water.

"My surname is Bai, and my given name is She (Snake)."

He clenched his teeth, his lips barely moved, and his voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, "Nice to meet you."

Zhang Haixia lowered his eyes.

The man's grip was incredibly strong, carrying an undisguised competitive spirit and hostility.

But who is Zhang Haixia? Even disregarding his Zhang family background, his physique and stamina far surpass those of ordinary people.

Moreover, apart from Shen Mingchao, no one else in this world can harm him in the slightest.

Without changing his expression, he easily and calmly withdrew his hand with a slight exertion of his wrist.

He was somewhat surprised by the White Snake's calm and restraint.

I thought this person was young and would lose control on the spot, but I didn't expect him to remain calm.

Zhang Haixia didn't say anything more, and then reached out to Wang Meng, who was standing stiffly to the side.

Wang Meng was still struggling internally, hesitating whether or not to break off relations.

It was clear that the White Snake had already reached out, so he could only suppress his agitation and follow suit.

"Wang Meng".

Don't act impulsively.

None of them can bear the consequences of their impulsive actions.

Shen Mingchao saw everything.

The play has just begun; let's test the waters first and not linger.

She deliberately tugged at Zhang Haixia's arm, then nodded politely to Wang Meng and Bai She, "We have something to do, so we'll be leaving now."

"Ming Dynasty—"

Just as he took a few steps, he heard the White Snake's urgent voice behind him again.

Shen Mingchao stopped and turned to look at him, his tone indifferent: "Is there anything else?"

The white snake was speechless for a moment.

His words just now were a complete reflex.

It would be extremely impolite for him to simply say "It's okay" now.

Amidst the turmoil of emotions churning in his chest, he impulsively blurted out, "The Ming Dynasty, is it the same as us?"

This is a very inappropriate statement.

This is also the issue they've been arguing about endlessly in the group chat.

Is this boyfriend, who appeared out of nowhere and whose identity is shrouded in mystery, really the same kind of person as them, and will he be affected by those special abilities?

The message received many replies, but no conclusion could be reached.

After all, they hadn't even been able to find out the person's identity.

To the White Snake's surprise, the smile on Shen Mingchao's face vanished instantly upon hearing those words.

His tone also became somber.

"no."

Two simple words, no further explanation needed.

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Mingchao, without waiting for Wang Meng and Bai She to react, grabbed Zhang Haixia and turned to leave quickly.

His back view was crisp and clean.

The two were left frozen in place, their expressions complicated.

Wang Meng hesitated, then gently nudged the white snake with his elbow, his voice tinged with panic: "White Snake, is Mingchao... unhappy?"

The White Snake frowned, her heart filled with extreme agitation, and her tone sharp: "I'm not blind!"

He knew in his heart that his words had clearly offended the other party.

But what sank even deeper into his heart was—

Was that person really not?

At the same time, my phone suddenly rang.

Upon opening it, I saw that it was a message sent by Shen Mingchao.

[We met when we were young, and things naturally progressed. Please don't mention those things in front of him, and please don't ruin other people's relationships. Thank you.]

The tone was polite yet distant, and every word was meant to be protective.

The white snake stared at the screen, feeling a bitter taste in her mouth.

Wang Meng, who was standing to the side, took a deep breath and, without saying a word, quickly opened their group chat.

It is better to suffer alone than to suffer together.

This blow shouldn't be borne by just the two of them.

Although I was heartbroken the moment we met.

But they didn't come away empty-handed.

Shenxia

The young people met, and things naturally progressed.

[Not an outsider affected by ability]

These are some very valuable clues.

Wang Meng recounted the events truthfully in the group chat, adding embellishments as well.

Wu Xie: So you also have the surname Shen?

Li Chu: Wait, we know each other as young people? Could it be someone you met after leaving my house?

Kan Jian: My only focus is on how lucky they are to have communication with the Ming Dynasty. Last time we bumped into each other at the coffee shop, she completely ignored us.

Luo Que: Being with you is just bad luck.

Vest: ? ? ?

Hodoff: Is this information credible?

White Snake: Do you think we're lying?

Hodolph: No, I mean, is it believable that this person is unaffected? What if he's faking it?

Yang Hao: That's possible.

Wang Meng: I'm not sure, but they were behaving intimately, and I didn't really see anything unusual about the other person after they came into contact.

White Snake: Indeed, she remained completely calm.

Yang Hao: What if he can tolerate it?

Su Wan: That's incredibly patient! I can't stand it for more than ten minutes.

Su Wan: Don't misunderstand, I didn't mean that ×× can't last ten minutes, I meant that I can't be in contact with her for ten minutes.

Li Cu: Ten minutes? You're so terrible.

Su Wan: ...Are you insulting me?

Qi Qiu: Not that stupid.

Su Wan: Ya Li, we're in the same boat. Knowing each other is crucial. Are you sure you want to mock me? Aren't you afraid I'll expose you directly?

Vest: Boom! Bro, don't hesitate!

Qi Qiu: Just ten minutes, tsk tsk tsk.

Su Wan: Are you sure you can stand being in contact with her for ten minutes without anything happening? Are you willing to take the bet?

Vest: What are we betting on?

Su Wan: I bet you won't show any abnormalities for more than ten minutes. The loser of this bet is out of the game.

The usually lively group suddenly fell into a brief silence.
