Tomb Raider: I Am Hu Bayi's Cousin

Chapter 633 Hmm, Two Little Thieves

"Uncle, you know, although I can't compare to people like Xiaohua who have huge families, I'm still quite wealthy, right?"

Early in the morning, while eating breakfast, the fat man suddenly asked a question.

"You've been tomb raiding for quite some time now, and you've taken a lot of good stuff. You own several properties in Beijing and have hidden a lot of treasures there."

"Plus the tens of millions in funds sitting in his account, it adds up to at least one or two hundred million. He's a tycoon, so what?"

Hu Ming did a rough calculation and nodded in agreement.

Tomb raiding is a business where, if you're lucky, you can easily get rich quick.

Before meeting Wu Xie and the others, Fatty had been working hard for several years as a well-known independent tomb raider, and his wealth was simply too great!

"Then tell me, when will a young girl finally be tempted by my vast wealth, hoping to outlive me and inherit my fortune?"

"I also want a young and beautiful girl to seduce me!"

After receiving affirmation, the fat man tossed his wavy hair and, with a serious and earnest expression, began to spout some... nonsense!
"Fatty, I know the I Ching and the Eight Trigrams. I'm an expert in fortune telling, you know that, right?"

Hu Ming was silent for a moment, then said softly.

"Yeah, so what did you figure out? How long until I, Fatty, have my luck with love?"

The fat man's eyes lit up instantly.

"How long? Ha!"

"I've done some calculations, and your future mother-in-law is..."

Hu Ming snorted coldly, pretended to stroke his non-existent long beard, and did some calculations.

"What? Where is she? I'm going to find my mother-in-law right now!"

"The Beihai Kindergarten is right next door; they'll be starting first grade next year!"

Hu Ming smiled.

"Damn it! So you mean I'm destined to be a bachelor for life? Why should I?"

The smile on the fat man's face gradually disappeared.

If you do the math, my mother-in-law is still in kindergarten.

So, by the time the mother-in-law grows up, gets married, and has children, wouldn't it be at least twenty years?
Then, more than twenty years pass before your future wife grows up from a tiny little thing...

So, when you calculate it that way...

The fat man's face immediately darkened.

Is it true that you can only get married when you're a hundred?
Do you really think everyone is like Hu Ming, Xiao Ge, and Hei Xiazi?
One hundred years old?
How many decent people actually live to this age?
Even if they can live to
The fat man glanced down. Even with advanced cultivation and a physical constitution and lifespan superior to others, a hundred years old still couldn't easily achieve immortality like Hu Ming, could he?
KO KO KO!!
Just as the two were playfully eating breakfast, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Wow, it seems our little one has made up his mind. The door's unlocked, come in."

Hu Ming's lips curled up slightly as he spoke loudly.

The person who pushed open the door was Su Wan.

His young face showed confusion, hesitation, worry for his friend, and... a touch of fear!
Hu Ming understood; he knew that Su Wan had probably already made her choice.

"At your age, it's amazing that you'd risk your life for your friends! To be honest, I was quite surprised to see you here."

"Have you had breakfast yet? Why don't you come and have some with me!"

Hu Ming stood up, clapped, and sincerely praised him.

This is not a sarcastic remark.

Su Wansheng came from a wealthy family, with no worries about food or clothing, and was pampered by his parents. It is understandable that he was able to make this choice.
Frankly speaking, in this day and age, nine out of ten people of the same age wouldn't have that kind of courage!
"...Where's my brother? Hasn't he arrived yet?"

Su Wan rubbed the corner of his clothes and looked around, but didn't see any familiar figures.

Thinking back to how he couldn't get through on the phone that morning, Su Wan showed a relieved yet complicated expression.

"As you can see, there are only the two of us in this room now."

Hu Ming shrugged, his earlobes twitched slightly, and he gave a barely perceptible smile.

"Kid, you may be young, but I, Fatty Wang, respect you as a real man! It's admirable that you'd stick by your friends and risk your life to save them!"

"As for that kid named Yang Hao, it's only natural that he didn't come. Everyone has their own ambitions, and we can't force them!"

For the first time, the fat man changed his opinion of this somewhat frail child and genuinely praised him. "Who said I wasn't here?"

"I just overslept and got late!"

Just then, Yang Hao, his eyes bloodshot, pushed open the door and entered, calling out in a hoarse voice.

"Good brother!"

"Then why was your phone off when I called you this morning? I thought... I thought..."

Su Wan's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed in surprise.

"What did you think? I just forgot to charge my phone yesterday!"

Yang Hao's eyes flickered slightly.

Early this morning, Yang Hao arrived at Fatty's house and squatted in the bushes.

To be honest, he had really backed down at one point.

However, Su Wan's entry into the fat man's life became the decisive factor!
"Damn it, the worst that can happen is death, right? I'm known in the martial arts world as Guan Yu reincarnated, and I'm the most loyal and righteous person ever!"
"Li Chu is in trouble, how can I just stand by and do nothing? Besides, consider this repayment for all the money you sponsored me before!"

Subconsciously shifting his gaze away from Hu Ming's face, Yang Hao straightened his neck, displaying a rather defiant attitude.

However, his slightly trembling body betrayed his inner fear.

"very good!"

"Now that everyone is here, let's get going!"

Hu Ming selectively ignored Yang Hao's trembling body and clapped his hands.

It is precisely because of this fear that Yang Hao's loyalty to his brothers is all the more precious.

"Is this the way to the Crescent Hotel?"

"Uncle, the place you mentioned that can decode tapes, could it be the Crescent Hotel?"

On the way, the chubby man in the passenger seat looked at the familiar route and asked with a mixture of surprise and relief, as if he had known all along.

"Don't you even consider who oversaw the construction of the buildings surrounding Gutongjing?"

"It's Zhang Qishan. If I'm not mistaken, this tape should contain information from Zhang Qishan's project back then."

"That machine is now kept in the Crescent Hotel."

Hu Ming replied calmly.

"Zhang Dafoye of your Nine Gates... what a poignant name. It's not surprising that he left some things at the New Moon Hotel."

"But this is good too. Now that you've gotten together with Boss Yin, you can be considered half the owner of the Crescent Hotel."

"That makes things much simpler."

Upon hearing the familiar name, the fat man smacked his lips and then teased Hu Ming in a playful manner.

"Get lost! What do you mean by 'got together'? Can't you even speak properly?"

"...We've arrived, let's get off!"

Hu Ming clicked his tongue, got out of the car, casually tossed the keys to the waiter who was already waiting nearby, and beckoned to the group.

"Crescent Hotel..."

Upon seeing the sign above their heads, Su Wan and Yang Hao exchanged strange glances.

That was a guilty look on his face…

"What's wrong with your expressions? Have you been here before?"

Hu Ming keenly noticed the changes in the two boys.

"Hu Ming, long time no see. As for these two kids... um, I didn't expect you to have caught these two little thieves who came to your Crescent Moon Hotel to steal!"

Just then, Zhang Yueshan appeared at the door and chuckled softly.

Hu Ming frowned and focused his gaze on Zhang Yueshan's right hand.
