Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

The way Su Li was looking at him now seemed to say: Have you forgotten when Kuku kicked you like that?

The Forbidden Woman flew back and forth...

Wu Xie moved his toes, and you know what, the feeling of those back-and-forth foot movements was actually quite nice.

He'd been so busy lately that he'd almost forgotten about Huo Ling, whom he and his brother had used as a shuttlecock in Golmud.

He remembered that during his teenage angst, they kicked someone so hard they suffered... multiple fractures all over their body? They were practically dehydrated...

"Ah this..."

Seeing how heartbroken Xiuxiu was just now, did someone's family come knocking on her door to settle scores? That's really awkward...

"I didn't expect the Forbidden Woman to have such a strong recovery ability. She looked like she was about to fall apart back then, but it hasn't been long. I just glanced at her and she's lively and energetic."

Su Li recalled how he had held the limp, noodle-like Forbidden Woman in his hands back then, and now she looked much better.

"Of course they're lively and energetic, with such strong teeth, they can make seafood so crunchy and delicious."

When Fatty Wang mentioned this, he suddenly remembered the seafood shells he had just seen at the bottom of the large glass tank.

"That Comrade Jie Qi is quite a talent. Look at the ingredients he prepared for him: conch, lobster, and giant turtle. He's probably just making sure they're tough on his teeth!"

Zheng Liangxin, feeling uneasy and innocent, hesitated for a moment.

"It's recovered! I was so upset when I saw Xiuxiu crying. I thought I had kicked it too hard last time and it was going to die..."

He felt quite guilty thinking about what would happen...

The eyes of the people on either side all turned to Wu Xie, and their expressions... were hard to describe.

"How naive you are! I never imagined you could be so naive..."

Innocent question mark face...

"My apprentice, your little mouth is really something..."

Zhang Qiling looked at Wu Xie silently without saying a word.

"Little naivety, don't you want to look at what you're saying?"

"Could you... please remove the encryption before speaking???"

"Let's talk about it, is it possible... that the little girl is crying because her aunt has become a 'forbidden woman'?"

Wuxie: ...

<(。_。)>

It sounds like I just had a brain fart.

Su Li covered her mouth and laughed heartily, leaning backward, but Hei Xiazi grabbed her by the collar and pulled her back.

While gently comforting Huo Xiuxiu, Xie Yuchen also had to forcefully ignore the guy who was having a private meeting behind the courtyard wall and whose words were making him laugh.

He has to be careful about his facial expressions when he speaks; it's really hard to suppress the corners of his mouth...

He had been reeling from the shock of his long-lost aunt turning into a monster, and then being shown eating a raw lobster in a water tank right in front of him.

Huo Xiuxiu looked at the large fish tank placed casually beside her, and met Huo Ling's gaze as Huo Ling was holding a large lobster, floating in the water, and occasionally taking a bite.

Huo Ling, the forbidden woman dressed in a tattered white robe, moved her body, causing ripples to spread across the water as her hair floated in the water.

He tugged at the slightly stiff muscles on his face, grinned widely, and shoved his sharp teeth, still containing bits of flesh, right in front of Huo Xiuxiu.

I wonder if Grandma can accept this kind of aunt...

“We met Aunt Huo Ling in Golmud. She was already like this when we found her. You and Grandma Huo have been looking for her for so many years. Now that Grandma Huo is getting old, I'm afraid something might happen to her…”

"Brother Xiaohua, I know. Finding Auntie is already a great thing. Thank you, Brother Xiaohua, and also thank Ali and the others for me..."

Five onlookers on the wall listened intently to the two's conversation for a while, after which Xie Yuchen called Xie Qi to arrange for someone to escort Huo Xiuxiu and Huo Ling away.

Huo Xiuxiu didn't need to worry about that, but transporting the large water vat containing Huo Ling was no small task.

Seeing a 'living person' soaking in a water tank is a bit creepy. It's obvious that this isn't a job for an ordinary person, so they can only do it by disassembling their equipment.

Huo Xiuxiu didn't intend to let anyone else see Huo Ling, even if no one could recognize her.

She planned to first settle Huo Ling in a small courtyard house under her name, and then find an opportunity to slowly probe her grandmother's opinion.

Her grandmother is getting old, and she's genuinely afraid that she might not be able to handle the shock and something bad might happen to her...

My aunt is like this now, sigh...

As soon as Huo Xiuxiu left with the glass jar that looked like a coffin carried by black men, the five people on the wall immediately jumped down from the wall.

Xie Yuchen looked at the few people standing obediently in front of him. They really knew how to make a scene.

Especially Zhang the Mute, who usually seems quite composed, but now that I think about it, he never missed a chance to join in the fun...

They're quite good at hiding...

Sure enough, someone who can hang out with that guy Hei Xiazi must be a very honest person.

………………

Pan Zi stood at the door of the study, holding a large bowl, slurping noodles while watching two chubby little boys who looked almost identical, hunched over their desks, writing furiously.

That look is just like a student who only realizes they haven't done any homework until the last minute before school starts; their eyes are practically bloodshot from staying up all night.

Wu Sansheng and Xie Lianhuan finally met after more than half a year. Before they could exchange more than a few words, Pan Zi reminded them that they still hadn't finished today's 120 repetitions...

Well... I still need to catch up on some homework first, this is really outrageous... (▼ヘ▼)

Pan Zi couldn't do this job; they had made many preparations and spent a lot of effort to practice their handwriting until it was almost identical.

As for Pan Zi...

Panzi looked at his scrawled handwriting and gave a simple, honest smile, obediently playing the role of an emotionless supervisor.

He still needs to deliver the two masters' 'homework' to the young master later.

As for what the young master does with all those stacks of paper every day?

Wuxie: I burn it for fun, it makes me feel good.

Jie Lianhuan rubbed his cheeks, which had become quite round from being pampered over the past month, to wake himself up.

Having left my student days behind for many years, I never imagined that at my age I would still be living the life of frantically rushing to finish my homework every day.

Wu Sansheng sighed wistfully...

Isn't it even more tragic that he's such a poor student? He was a troublemaker when he was young; he never did his homework back then!

The two looked at each other... and remained silent...

Damn it... I actually let that brat's empty promises fool me...

The key point is that they have to eat this pie whether they want to or not. These little brats have grown wings, and they can't resist them at all.

Besides being subjected to 120 repetitions of Wu Sansheng's quotes every day to mock them, they also have to face... a barrage of documents detailing the ongoing feud between the Wu and Xie families...

The main source of these supplies is the Xie family; the Wu family's supplies are just scraps...

The responsibility that had been left to his adopted son for years suddenly came crashing down on him; the feeling was indescribable...

Tut tut...

The crucial point is that he can't afford to give up; this is all the Xie family's legacy!!!
