Some people also packed other things, such as red dates, candies, peanuts, oranges, etc.

Lin Chuchu just hoped she wouldn't fall for it.

Soon, plates of dumplings were served, and the leftover dishes from lunch were reheated.

Everyone joined the dumpling-grabbing frenzy.

Compared to them, Lin Chuchu ate much more politely. Mu Chen was afraid that she wouldn't get enough to eat, so he kept putting food on her plate.

Lin Chuchu really didn't expect to be able to eat dumplings, so she was a little surprised when her teeth made a crunching sound.

Then he spat out the coins from his mouth and wiped his mouth.

Everyone else stared at Lin Chuchu.

"Comrade Lin, it seems you're going to have a very lucky year."

"You ate one, there are 4 left, I have to hurry up and eat them."

After exchanging a few words, everyone went back to eating dumplings in silence.

After eating two plates, Evan saw that others had already served three dumplings, and he became a little anxious, so he picked up dumplings much faster.

As someone else gasped in surprise, he knew that someone else had surely found a coin.

No, there's only one left.

His eyes were fixed on the dumplings, each one looking very similar.

He ate a few more, including one with orange filling, and finally got to eat the eighth one.

"Haha, I got to eat a dumpling! I got to eat the last one!"

Evan was as excited as a child, even happier than if he had won the lottery.

He heard from others that being able to eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year signifies good luck.

That means he'll make a lot of money and become rich this year.

He felt he was really lucky this year, having met Qin and his team, and earning more than he had in previous years. He really hoped that every year would be like this.

However, that's impossible. Collecting cultural relics is becoming increasingly time-consuming and laborious for him, and most of the items he collects are not of high value.

Sooner or later, he'll run out of things to take, and then Captain Qin and the others will definitely leave.

Even so, he was already very satisfied.

Without money, everyone slowed down their eating pace and started watching the excitement.

Let's see who can get to eat those special dumplings.

It's great to have a large group; there was hardly any food left over. After finishing our meal and cleaning up, it was already 10 p.m.

After seeing off the unusually excited Evan, everyone went back to their rooms to sleep.

I was very tired, but when I lay down in bed, I couldn't fall asleep for a long time.

I miss home even more now.

Mu Chen was the same. The two talked for a while, and finally felt sleepy, so they both fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning was the first day of the Lunar New Year. There was no need to go to work or visit relatives. Lin Chuchu got up a little late, it was almost noon.

I probably slept too much, because my head still felt a little dizzy when I woke up.

When I left the room, I found out that she was the last one to get up.

"You guys are up really early."

Team Leader Qin sighed, "It's not that we got up early; it was that kid Evan who woke us up early this morning."

"We also say that the first day of the lunar new year is the day for visiting relatives and friends, and this kid remembered that."

There's this one person who's obsessed with getting free meals; they don't even have a chance to sleep in.

Mu Chen came out of the kitchen, wearing an apron.

Seeing Lin Chuchu smiling, she said, "We made dumplings early this morning, and I guessed you'd wake up around this time. Come and have some dumplings first."

Lin Chuchu agreed, went to the kitchen, washed her hands, and started eating.

Have you eaten? Want to grab something to eat with me?

Mu Chen nodded without refusing. They had only eaten a little over an hour ago and weren't hungry, so they only ate a few dumplings and then stopped.

They didn't plan to eat three meals a day, so they ate breakfast rather late.

Life in a foreign country is mostly boring, there are few people on the streets, and they don't like to go shopping.

However, a few people go out to buy some things every day.

Even if they have enough food in their space, they still buy some extra just to make it look like they're doing something special.

They live cautiously in other countries, trying their best not to attract attention.

Fortunately, they succeeded.

Even the neighbors around them had a good impression of them, only knowing that they came here to do business, so they would occasionally go out.

At this crucial moment, they need to be even more cautious. Their primary task is to complete the mission and successfully bring all the cultural relics from Li Chuchu's space back.

More than a month later, Ai Wen delivered another batch of cultural relics. When Qin and his team were helping to unload the goods, they always felt as if someone was watching them.

Team Leader Qin pulled Aiven into the house, and before Aiven could speak, he raised his index finger to his lips.

Evan had to shut his mouth. He watched in astonishment as Captain Qin searched him until he found a listening device in a button on his clothes.

Evan's face instantly turned ugly.

Team Leader Qin destroyed the listening device and said, "Tell me what has happened to you these past few days."

After thinking for a moment, Evan said in a deep voice.

“A few days ago, I ran into an old friend. We went out for drinks together. It must have been him.”

Evan knew that it was probably because he hadn't concealed the artifacts these past few times that they had caught people's attention.

"What should we do? Will they attack us?"

He said with concern.

Team Leader Qin shook his head. "It should be fine, but this should be the last time."

“We’ll give you the money, and then you can continue collecting those artifacts. After that, we’ll leave.”

Evan's heart skipped a beat. He had always thought that such a deal could be done a few more times, but he didn't expect it to end prematurely.

“I don’t want that money. It’s probably because of me that they noticed you.”

Evan said with some guilt.

Team Leader Qin shook his head. "You've already helped us enough. This time, it might not be aimed at you. Perhaps, we've also been noticed for what's going on."

"Consider this last payment as compensation. We don't know if they will take action against you after we leave, but if possible, leave the country as soon as possible."

They had been working together for several months and were very happy with each other. Team Leader Qin didn't want the other team to get hurt because of them.

After a moment of silence, Evan nodded and said, "I've already started transferring assets, and it's almost done. I'll leave in about two weeks."

Evan knew this day would come sooner or later, so he had been secretly transferring his inheritance.

Exchange the currency of the Eagle Nation for other gold and silver jewelry or other countries' currencies.

Team Leader Qin patted him on the shoulder and said nothing more.

Because of this incident, everyone is in a bad mood.

Team Leader Qin said to Lin Chuchu.

"This batch of cultural relics, apart from those from China which were put into the space, consisted entirely of replicas."

The replication process takes one month, and it doesn't matter if the original artifact is destroyed.

For the next month, as long as these cultural relics remained at home, the other party dared not make any moves.
