Chapter 66 Attracting Attention
"Go and replace the bamboo slips in a bit. As the mining continues, it will definitely attract a large number of strange beasts, so you must maintain your fighting strength."
"Okay, boss, I'll keep an eye on things here. You can go and rest for a while."
Bo Chuan did not refuse, just as he said he needed to maintain his fighting strength, as another wave of strange beasts attacked as evening approached.
Because nighttime provides a boost to the beasts, these beasts generally attack more fiercely at night, and the intense battles continue until after 11 p.m.
A group of people roasted the pure meat from the strange beasts around a fire; this was their daily routine while cleaning up the contaminated area.
Today, Chen Xingheng was a little absent-minded. He didn't care when he was busy, but when he had free time, his longing surged up. However, when he checked his smartwatch, there was no message at all.
He wasn't stupid; he knew he was more deeply involved than the other person. Based on his parents' experiences, he thought he could take a calm approach to relationships and be serious about his family.
I never imagined that in just a few days, I would be so deeply involved.
Finally, I couldn't help but send a question.
Gu Qing was very busy that day, trying her best to level up her character by the end of the month.
She was playing games after taking a bath when Chen Xingheng messaged her, and she suddenly realized that she had a husband. She had been so busy that she had forgotten about him.
Upon opening the message, Gu Qing heard a tone of longing mixed with resentment. Her eyes darted around, she cleared her throat, and replied with a voice message.
After sending the message, Chen Xingheng kept staring at the smartwatch.
"Third Brother, come here quickly! This is the seasoned meat you brought over, have a taste." Qi Bai brought over the roasted meat.
"This seasoning is indeed well-matched, perfect for grilling meat." Zhu Jian handed a piece to Bo Chuan and took a bite himself.
Bo Chuan took a bite and then nodded.
Qi Bai sat down with the grilled meat in his hand, just as Chen Xingheng's smartwatch gave him a notification. Qi Bai turned around curiously to look, but since the screen wasn't visible, he didn't see anything.
But watching her third brother's expression change from sullen to cheerful, and then her face slowly turned red, biting her lip and even her earlobes started to turn red.
He was so curious that he grabbed Chen Xingheng and asked, "Third Brother, what are you watching? You're not watching some kind of live stream, are you?"
Chen Xingheng tried to get away from him, shouting, "Get out of here!"
Qi Bai was not about to give way, and reached out to touch his watch to adjust it. In the struggle, the two accidentally touched the speaker.
A clear and sweet song drifted over, "The evening breeze blows gently, the night is intoxicating, and the lonely person needs your company."
Who's still awake in the empty room with the lights on? Who's the person who wakes up in the middle of the night to call?
This night is so gentle, these sweet words so alluring, but to whom do I offer these alluring words?
One last thing, Xingheng, are you done with your work? I didn't dare message you for fear of disturbing your work.
Gu Qing believes that if you want to live a life together, you have to maintain your relationship.
Little did she know that the amplified sound was incredibly destructive. In an instant, the valley was filled with distant clanging sounds, and the area at the valley entrance fell into complete silence.
Finally, Qi Bai sighed and muttered to himself, "Third Brother, I'll be your brother, I promise I'll be obedient."
"Get lost." As the words fell, he tossed the person aside.
Then he stood up and hurriedly walked to a less crowded area.
Qi Bai got up from the ground, coughed twice while clutching his chest, and said, "We're all brothers, you'd be better off guarding outsiders than me."
His words broke the silence, and everyone coughed lightly before continuing their conversation, albeit with completely irrelevant content.
"Ah, actually Qi Bai's suggestion isn't entirely unacceptable." Zhu Jian's words reached Bo Chuan's ears, and he tightened his grip on the grilled meat.
His gaze drifted to the fire, the song he had just heard echoing in his mind, sweet and lingering like the exotic honey he had received yesterday, sweet and full of energy, making him unconsciously swallow it.
Chen Xingheng walked to the side and made a voice call, "Brother Xingheng, are you done with your work? Are you injured? Are you very tired?"
"Baby, are you still awake? I just finished working and I'm grilling meat right now. I'm not hurt and I'm not very tired, so don't worry, baby."
Gu Qing was taken aback by his way of addressing her. He used to call her Qingqing, why was he suddenly being so affectionate? "Brother Xingheng, did you miss me?"
"Yes! I miss you so much."
"Then Xingheng, work hard and try to come back soon. The autumn fruits I planted are almost ripe, and I want to eat them with Xingheng then."
