Tomb raiding: A mere 20 is nothing!

Chapter 53: Just Helping Each Other as Friends

The second person I contacted was Wu Xie.

The other party said that their house in Yucun was almost finished, and the agritainment business was also taking shape.

Shen Mingchao took the idea of ​​staying in Yucun very seriously. She wanted to find an opportunity to reunite with her family, not to actually experience rural life. So she told Wu Xie a long time ago that she wanted to pay for the renovation of her house.

Wu Xie disagreed, saying that he was an architecture graduate and that he would take care of the renovation, assuring her that she could rest assured.

Shen Mingchao felt a little embarrassed, but he couldn't persuade her otherwise. He simply said that funding wasn't a problem and that he could tell her if he needed more.

After a brief chat, Wu Xie sent several more photos, including a picture of Qi Yu fishing from behind, a picture of Fatty hoeing the ground, and several landscape photos.

Shen Mingchao kept them all, planning to collect them and then print them out to make a photo wall.

The third person they contacted was Wang Meng.

This male mother is truly dedicated, frequently sending her updates on San San's life.

such as.

[Ming Dynasty, I took San San to the pet store for a bath yesterday, and the staff all praised San San for her good temperament.]

[During the Ming Dynasty, I felt that San San was already the king of the cats in this area.]

Shen Mingchao thought Wang Meng was exaggerating when he saw this sentence.

When she landed in Hangzhou and arrived at the entrance of Wushanju in Wang Meng's car, she heard a series of meows. She looked in the direction of the sound and was almost shocked.

A group of cats of various colors gathered at the entrance of Wushanju. Among them, a calico cat was particularly smug, its fluffy tail swaying leisurely, clearly acting like the boss of the cats.

"See, I wasn't wrong."

Seeing this, Wang Meng took a picture on a whim and sent it to Wu Xie.

[Boss, if you don't settle this month's wages soon, I'm really going to let these cats take over your Wushan Residence.]

The Wu family, known for their dogs, has had their territory taken over by a group of stray cats—it's hilarious to think about.

As soon as the message was sent, someone transferred money to him, but it wasn't Wu Xie.

"Brother Meng, I won't be staying in Hangzhou for more than a few days. Since these cats have recognized San San as their boss, as San San's owner, I naturally have to treat them to the best of everything. You can use this money to buy cat food."

After saying that, Shen Mingchao entered a crazy cat-petting mode, taking pictures with the tabby cat one minute and watching the black and white cat go crazy the next.

Seeing this harmonious scene between humans and cats, Wang Meng quietly took a few photos, and then sent a message to Wu Xie.

[Boss, look at Wu Shan Ju, it's not making any money lately. Why not turn it into a cat café? I heard Ming Chao makes desserts, and her cat is Elvis Presley. It's a win-win situation! Besides, I think Ming Chao would be a very generous boss.]

At the same time, Wu Xie had just returned from hoeing the bamboo forest. He opened his phone to check the progress of the Ming Dynasty, but instead saw two messages from Wang Meng.

The fat man, noticing Wu Xie's pale face, asked, "Tianzhen, what happened?"

Before Wu Xie could speak, he half-jokingly guessed, "Could it be that Chief Xie made a move beforehand, leaving the girl in Beijing and preventing her from coming over?"

Wu Xie glared at the fat man: "Don't talk nonsense about Xiao Hua. Xiao Hua isn't that kind of person."

The fat man shook his head: "I don't think so."

Zhang Qilin then looked at Wu Xie, his questioning gaze quite clear.

Meeting Zhang Qilin's gaze, Wu Xie explained, "It's Wang Meng. That kid's acting like he's crazy. He told me he wants to turn Wu Shan Ju into a cat café."

The fat man's eyes widened: "When did this kid get so bold? Who gave him the courage?"

Wu Xie opened the photo and saw Shen Mingchao playing happily with a group of cats in the picture. In the end, he didn't say anything nasty to Wang Meng. Well, this kid did do something decent.

After saving the photo, he looked at the clouds on the horizon and suddenly felt that there was hope for the future.

At Wu Shan Ju, Shen Mingchao had already had San San chase away the cats. When the two of them and the cat entered, they bumped into the white snake that came out after hearing the noise.

Shen Mingchao felt a little awkward facing the white snake, but fortunately, the other party remained calm, greeted him with a smile, and said that dinner was ready and that she had arrived just in time.

Seeing how composed the other person was, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that the word "friend" was not an empty promise.

Apart from.....

The other party still couldn't shake off their "gentlemanly demeanor".

At dinner, when the White Snake pushed a bowl full of shrimp towards him, Shen Mingchao was startled and waved his hands repeatedly to refuse.

"oh....."

The man lowered his head, his expression utterly forlorn.

No, what's wrong with you?

Shen Mingchao hesitated for a moment, but still reached out and took the bowl of shrimp. It was definitely not because she was craving it.

"Mingchao, don't overthink it. It's nothing between friends. I'm just killing time anyway."

Brother, is it really okay for you to lie like this?

Why don't you take a look at the way your neighbor is looking at you?

Shen Mingchao thought that if Wang Meng's eyes could swear, the place would be filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers right now.

The care shown between the White Snake's friends goes beyond this, manifesting in every aspect. Showing concern and warmth is basic, while cooking and washing dishes are commonplace and they are very persistent in doing so.

To make it easier to work, the man even tied up his long hair, and his tall figure was wrapped in a beige apron, giving him an eerie, married look.

Unable to cope any longer, Shen Mingchao quickly took his leave.

After hearing this, the two men did not try to stop her, but they had a big disagreement about who should drive her to Yucun.

Wang Meng preemptively said, "San San is close to me. I was just thinking of going to Yucun to visit the boss and the others, so it's only right that I deliver it to them. You can watch the shop."

The White Snake retorted with a look of disdain: "You stay at Wushan Residence all day long, unlike me who travels all over the country. I definitely wouldn't know the way."

"Ha!" Wang Meng immediately pulled out his phone. "Even if I don't know the way, what's there to be afraid of with navigation?"

The white snake delivered a fatal blow with a light touch: "This is dereliction of duty, and Wu Xie will definitely deduct your salary."

Wang Meng seemed to choke for a moment, then forced himself to remain calm: "You and I are the same, elder brother, don't laugh at your second brother."

White Snake shook her head: "Wu Xie can't control my personal freedom. My relationship with him is just a simple business relationship, while yours is an employment relationship. It's different."

Wang Meng scoffed, "He doesn't even pay wages on time! What kind of employment relationship is that?"

Shen Mingchao sat to the side, watching them and scratching his head.

She tried a few times at first, but found that she couldn't get a word in edgewise, so she simply watched the game with her cat.

The two heads, one big and one small, kept looking left and right, almost as if they were about to grab a handful of sunflower seeds and start cracking them open.

The two argued back and forth for a long time without reaching a conclusion. Shen Mingchao then told Wu Xie about the situation, saying that both of them wanted to drive her home and that Wu Xie, as the boss, should make the decision. It wasn't her who had tricked her employees into skipping work.

Wu Xie: ......

He heard their scheme all the way from Fujian!
