Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

"Come on, boss, three-delicacy noodles, and braised beef noodles for the kids, eat them while they're hot." Wang Meng hurriedly placed two bowls of instant noodles in front of Wu Xie and Su Li, urging them to hurry up.

Hungry Wuxie took his bowl, skillfully broke open the plastic fork, took a bite, and was completely satisfied.

Su Li imitated Wu Xie's manner, picked at the food, and took a bite...

Hmm, it's weird, but it's delicious!!!

Why does it smell so good?

诚然，在这个时代，泡面对小朋友的诱惑力是拉满的╮(?6?1?0?7w?6?1?0?6)╭

For Su Li, who was eating instant noodles for the first time, the flavor was even more overwhelming.

Wang Meng looked at the pretty little kid slurping instant noodles in front of him, just like his boss, and grew increasingly fond of him, his eyes filled with loving light.

Where did the boss kidnap this kid? She's so well-behaved and beautiful, and she even has her own luxury car. She looks so expensive.

After eating and drinking his fill, Wu Xie was secretly pulled aside by Wang Meng.

"Boss, boss, weren't you supposed to be learning from Third Master? How come you're still..." Wang Meng gestured towards Su Li, who was intently eating noodles not far away. "You kidnapped someone's child?"

Wu Xie patted Wang Meng on the shoulder helplessly. "It's not that your boss kidnapped the child, it's that the child is clinging to your boss. No, not exactly clinging, they did pay for his food and lodging."

Thinking of the two beautiful little animals in his backpack, Wu Xie suddenly fell silent.

The kid is so generous, what's wrong with him coming to my house to play for a few days? Am I being too stingy?

Wu Xie is in a state of self-doubt.

Wang Meng looked shocked and secretly pointed to the instant noodle bowl on the table. "This is it? Boss, you actually charge people for food??? I didn't expect you to be so greedy, boss."

"How dare you talk like that? Believe me or not, you won't get your salary this month." Wu Xie unleashed his ultimate move.

“I…” I always use the same trick.

Su Li, who was eating while listening intently, and the two of them together were really fun.

After finishing the instant noodles in his bowl, he happily slipped Wang Mengmeng a little gift...

Yes, it's the same recipe.

Wang Meng: ? ? ? ?

Holy crap!!!

……

Over the next few days, Su Li stayed close to Wu Xie. Whenever Wu Xie had free time, he would take him around to see the surrounding scenery again and again. He also took Su Li to Lou Wai Lou to experience authentic Hangzhou cuisine.

Wu Xie, a top student in the Department of Architecture at Zhejiang University, also has a hobby of photography. After seeing the latest camera that Su Li brought out, he happily became a teacher.

While Wu Xie was reading or researching in the store, Su Li would quietly play mobile games or watch Wang Meng play Minesweeper.

Wang Meng and Wu Xie exclaimed in surprise, "It turns out that raising children isn't so difficult after all..."

Yes, life is so peaceful and harmonious, it's wonderful, it feels like I'm retiring young.

until……

After going out to Wu Sansheng's place alone, Wu Xie came back looking a bit off. He seemed preoccupied, either researching or spacing out, and had no interest in taking Su Li out for a stroll.

Su Li thought for a moment, "Is this because he discovered the Snake-Eyebrow Bronze Fish and was then stunned by Wu Sansheng's recollections of the past?"

The old fox, a master swindler, warned Wu Xie that tomb raiding was dangerous and forbade him from participating. At the same time, he told Wu Xie fantastical and dramatic stories of his own youth, making him yearn to join in and experience a thrilling adventure.

The story is a mix of truth and fiction, leaving Wu Xie both doubtful and yearning.

correct!

And there's Brother Zhang from twenty years ago!

Tut tut...

It can be said that it has a firm grasp on Wuxie's curiosity, just like dangling a meaty bone in front of a puppy to lure it in the direction it wants to run.

It's no wonder Wu Xie was raised by Wu Sansheng since childhood; he actually jumped into such a huge pit without hesitation.

Judging from the way he's looking up information.

……

"What did you say? Who's missing?" Wu Xie's startled cry startled Wang Meng and Su Li, who were engrossed in playing Minesweeper.

"Your uncle, Mr. Wu Sansheng," the person on the other end of the phone replied.

"Who are you people, and how are you so sure my third uncle is missing?"

Although he kept mentioning wanting to go down to that underwater tomb again after talking with his third uncle that day, how could he have disappeared so soon?

"I am the head of the marine resources development company. You can call me Aning."

Mr. Wu Sansheng contacted us earlier, renting equipment and expedition team members from our company under the guise of exploring underwater tombs. They have now been out of contact for five days.

The woman across from me had a slightly strange accent. It wasn't obvious, but if you listened carefully, she sounded like a foreigner who spoke fluent Mandarin.

"Missing for five days?" Wu Xie steadied himself. "Then why are you looking for me?"

"That's right. When Mr. Wu Sansheng signed the lease agreement, because our staff only had theoretical knowledge and limited practical experience, he made a supplementary clause."

Aning paused here, as if reviewing the contract. "If their exploration team encounters any accident and loses contact, we will contact you immediately so that you can organize a rescue team and guide this rescue operation. At the very least, you must help us find the correct location of the tomb."

What Ah Ning said was practically telling him outright that she already knew his true identity.

Wu Xie pursed his lips tightly, worried about Wu Sansheng's safety while also annoyed that Wu Sansheng had used him as a guarantor.

That old fox, all he does is scheme against him all day long.

“Mr. Wuxie, the situation is urgent. Our company hopes you can come and join us as soon as possible,” Aning continued to urge.

Just as Wu Xie was about to agree, someone suddenly patted his shoulder. He turned around and saw Su Li, who had been listening for a long time, showing him his phone.

The above is a text message that was never sent.

“My family saw the old man at sea in the Xisha Islands. He was fine and was fishing at sea with Panzi in their boat.”

A few days ago, I received news that Huahua had intercepted Wu Sansheng at sea. The old man was quite leisurely, sunbathing and fishing at sea, with Panzi busy serving him.

Wuxie: ...

Damn it, Wu Sansheng! I must have owed you something in my past life to be screwed over like this in this one.

Su Li deleted the previous content and continued typing frantically. It's quite remarkable that this 'little foreigner' can now type so fast.

"Don't refuse her yet. She absolutely needs you, whether by invitation or by hiring you..."

Su Li tapped the word 'hire' with her finger.

Wu Xie understood immediately, and with that, he was no longer in a hurry. He had been very interested in this underwater tomb before, and since his third uncle had gone to such lengths to make him go...
