Tomb Exploration: All-round Playing the Cold-Faced God Zhang Qilin

Inside the small villa, in the kitchen, the fat man was frantically stirring the pot with a spatula and picking up the vegetables frantically.

In the living room, Zhang Yichen looked at the dishes on the table without moving the chopsticks in his hand. He put down the chopsticks silently, then picked up his mobile phone and clicked on an app.

The oil pump in the kitchen stopped making any noise, and the fat man brought out the dishes, which were still steaming.

"Here we go, the last dish, sweet and sour pork ribs."

The fat man said as he brought out the dishes.

When the fat man came to the table, he saw that none of the dishes on the table had been touched. He thought Zhang Yichen was embarrassed and said to him, "Little brother, you don't have to wait for me. Eat as much as you can and we'll fry it after you're done."

Zhang Yichen glanced at him with that unique look, as if he was saying something and yet not saying anything.

The fat man didn't care when he saw Zhang Yichen didn't move. He just served himself some rice and looked at the braised spareribs on the plate. He picked up a piece of it with chopsticks. Although it didn't look good, it tasted really good.

The fat man vomited immediately because it was too salty and a little undercooked. The fat man pushed the dish aside in embarrassment.

After the fat man had eaten the other dishes, he finally understood why Zhang Yichen didn't eat anymore, but you should at least eat a little and then pretend.

At this time, the fat man suddenly saw Zhang Yichen, picked up a bag of potato chips from the side, tore it open and started eating. This made the fat man's self-esteem even more hurt, and he started eating snacks in front of him.

The fat man put down his bowl and chopsticks and complained to himself, saying that he would have cooked for himself and ordered takeout instead. But when he mentioned ordering takeout, he suddenly remembered why he did that in the first place.

The fat man picked up his phone and wanted to order takeout, but at this time the doorbell rang. The fat man thought Wu Chen was back and wanted to go open the door, but Zhang Yichen was one step faster than him and got up and walked towards the door.

After taking the food, the fat man was stunned. It turned out that Zhang Yichen had ordered takeout a long time ago. The fat man took a deep breath and shamelessly started to eat the takeout. The takeout was for two people, so the fat man also felt that Zhang Yichen was not that kind of person. He had already forgotten about the things that had just happened.

......

In the Wu family company, Wu Chen sat on the sofa and listened quietly to his father's speech.

"Wu Chen, think about why our Wu family has no daughter."

Wu Chen didn't know why his father said that, but he really thought about it carefully. From childhood to adulthood, he really found that the Wu family had only boys and no daughters.

His uncles also have their own companies, and they also have sons and no daughters. If it weren't for his father's words, he really wouldn't have paid attention.

"Does that mean my Wu family has a higher chance of having a boy?" Wu Chen said.

Father Wu shook his head and said, "I'll tell you straight, our Wu family used to rob tombs. Your great-grandfather's generation and your grandfather's generation all did these things. At that time, the Wu family started out by robbing tombs, so our generation has long stopped doing it. Now everyone is very successful. Now, you know why we want to donate money."

After listening to these words, Wu Chen was very silent. He really didn't expect that the Wu family got their start by robbing tombs.

"So what does this have to do with not having a daughter?"

Father Wu no longer wanted to hide it. Naturally, they would have to know about it when they got married and had children.

"There have been problems since your great-grandfather's generation. It's like the Wu family has been cursed ever since. Any girl born to a Wu family boy who gets married and has a child will surely die young."

"And the most terrible thing about this curse is that girls die right after they are born, rather than dying the day after tomorrow."

This time Wu Chen was silent for a long time, but his hands kept rubbing. He didn't expect that the Wu family would have such a fate.

The same thing happened to Mr. Wu. He couldn't help but recall something and a few tears fell from the corners of his eyes.

"Wu Chen, I told you more than just this. I actually don't want to hide it from you."

Wu Chen didn't say anything, his eyes were fixed on the table, not knowing what he was looking at. But at this moment, he was digesting what his father had just said.

Father Wu didn't think about whether Wu Chen was listening or not. He just sat on the sofa and said it out loud.

"Actually, I'm not your biological father."

Wu Chen was still digesting what his father had just said. When he heard this, he came back to his senses instantly. He turned to look at his father. He thought he had heard it wrong and said uncertainly.

"What do you mean? You're not my real dad?"

Father Wu took out a box of cigarettes, took out one of them and lit it up, took a deep breath, exhaled the smoke slowly before speaking.

"I am actually your second uncle. When your parents gave birth to you, they wanted to tell me to raise you by my side. When your parents gave birth to their first child, a daughter, they had the idea to break the curse. But after so many years, we don't know whether your parents are alive or dead, and I'm afraid the curse has not been broken."

Wu Chen understood everything now. His palms were sweating, but he didn't dare to believe it was true. Without waiting for Wu's father to say anything, he left. Wu's father didn't say anything. He sat on the sofa, smoking a cigarette, and exhaled a long breath of smoke. The air was filled with smoke.

Not long after, Wu Chen returned home, feeling very depressed. He went to the living room, poured himself a glass of water and drank it. The cold water finally stimulated him.

"Comrade Wu Xiao, you are finally back."

Hearing the noise in the living room, the fat man's loud voice came to mind, but when he came out and saw Wu Chen's listless appearance, he spoke again.

"What's wrong? What happened? You look so listless!"

Wu Chen didn't even look at Pang, he just lay down on the sofa and covered his face with a pillow.

The fat man came to Wu Chen, leaned on the sofa, and spoke to Wu Chen again.

"What's wrong? Did something happen to you outside? Or are you feeling unwell? Tell me and I'll help you. How dare you bully our Comrade Wu Xiao."

Wu Chen covered his face with a pillow, but didn't take it off, and said, "It's okay, Fatty. I'm just a little sleepy. I'll take a nap first."

The fat man nodded, said nothing, got up and left.

Wu Chen slept until ten o'clock in the evening. He sat up in a daze. The whole living room was very dark. Wu Chen groped to the switch, turned on the light in the living room, and poured a glass of water to drink.

When I woke up, I felt isolated from the world. It was very quiet and lonely.

I went to the kitchen to make something to eat, but there was a note on the microwave with a simple sentence written on it.

"I left it for you. You can eat it after heating it up."

Wu Chen took the note and couldn't help but smile.
