Chapter 318 The night is quite nice tonight.



Although Chen Zhe had some savings in his account, they were just cold, hard numbers.

It was far less impressive than the gold and silver objects before my eyes.

He made a rough estimate of the value of the gold and silver items here and found that it was an enormous amount.

"My goodness, what did he steal? Is being a robber really that profitable?"

Chen Zhe stroked the gold and silver in his hands. Although the gold and silver were a little cold, he felt extremely warm inside.

He felt that everyone probably had a dream of finding treasure, and he was no exception. Since childhood, he had fantasized about finding treasure, getting rich, and reaching the pinnacle of life.

This dream lasted until I graduated from university.

After entering the workforce, he pinned his hopes on winning the lottery. Although his family didn't give him much money, and he had to deduct the money he gave to his girlfriend Xu Weiwei, he still managed to save a little and buy lottery tickets from time to time.

He hoped that one day he would win the lottery.

Although he later realized it was unrealistic, he still harbored that desire.

Now that the gold and silver were laid out before him, the sheer impact completely washed away any fear he had felt about the environment earlier.

"I'm rich! I'm really rich!!"

Chen Zhe stroked it again and again, his smile stretching almost to his ears.

But as he laughed, he started to worry again.

"No way! Even if you gave me so much gold and silver all at once, I wouldn't be able to spend it all!"

The crime of possessing property of unknown origin is enough to get him into serious trouble.

With so much gold and silver here, it would probably be difficult for him to quietly empty it and then clean it up through legitimate means.

After thinking for a while, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"That's right!! The Zhang family owns a gold shop!!!"

Chen Zhe set his sights on Zhang Xinrui and Zhang Xinai, and after having this plan, he decided to get along well with the two sisters.

Looking at the room filled with gold and silver, Chen Zhe was a little reluctant, but he still left. However, before leaving, he grabbed a handful of copper coins from the side.

That's right, there are several boxes full of copper coins next to it.

He thought of the bet with Zhang Xin'ai. If he found Zhang Xin'ai, wouldn't he be guaranteed to win?

Absolutely perfect!

When Chen Zhe came in, he felt a little scared. He was afraid that there was something unclean inside.

But even after he came out, he still felt scared. He was afraid that something unclean was outside and had discovered his secret base.

He stood on the flat spot that had just been there.

He touched his chin with his hand.

"No, if someone else discovers this cave, then my money..."

Chen Zhe has already categorized the gold and silver items inside as his own property.

He is a money-loving person.

Once you discover it, it's yours.

Besides, these are all "ill-gotten gains," so it's perfectly reasonable for me to take them; they're a gift from heaven.

He stood there, deep in thought, when suddenly the thick fog around him seemed to dissipate considerably.

"Never mind, let's go back first."

Unable to think of a way to protect the place for the time being, Chen Zhe decided to leave first and think of a solution later.

He followed the marker and the method he had used earlier, and returned to the large rock.

Just then, he heard someone call his name.

That was Zhang Xin'ai's voice, and it sounded like she was crying.

"Chen Zhe, you bastard! How dare you abandon me?! You bastard, where are you?!"

As Chen Zhe walked towards the sound, the thick fog gradually dissipated, and he got closer and closer to the voice.

"Zhang Xin'ai! Is that you?"

"Chen Zhe???"

Zhang Xin'ai was overjoyed to hear Chen Zhe's voice. She quickly ran towards the sound, and although the grass scraped her delicate skin along the way, she didn't care.

She desperately craves security right now.

When she saw Chen Zhe standing there, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

Then he came over and punched Chen Zhe in the chest.

"You bastard!! How dare you abandon me!! You son of a bitch!"

Chen Zhe was so punched by her fist that he almost vomited blood, so he quickly grabbed her hand.

"Miss Zhang, please stop hitting me. If you keep hitting me, I'm really going to die."

Zhang Xin'ai snorted; "Who told you to sneak away? I just squatted down to look for something, and when I stood up I couldn't find you. I've been looking for you for a long time, and you didn't answer when I called you. I can't find my phone either. I've been looking around here, but it's all foggy..."

Zhang Xin'ai cried as she spoke.

But as she cried, she noticed Chen Zhe was laughing.

She angrily wiped away her tears; "You're still laughing?!"

"I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself. I remember when we came here, you said you wanted to have a contest of courage with me, and that you'd been to all sorts of places, like abandoned graves, haunted houses, and deserted wilderness... What? A thick fog scared you like this?"

Zhang Xin'ai's heart skipped a beat.

She finally stopped crying, and she was very embarrassed, her face turning bright red.

"I...I...I'm not scared, I'm just worried about you. I'm worried you'll be in danger. You know I'm a good person. I came out with you, and if you disappear, how am I supposed to explain it to them?"

Chen Zhe didn't expose her lie, but instead smiled and took out a handful of copper coins.

"Miss Zhang, I just went to look for this. Now, do I win?"

Zhang Xin'ai looked at Chen Zhe as if she had seen a ghost when she saw the copper coin in his hand.

"You!! You really found it?"

"Otherwise what? Didn't you say there were some here? I got separated from you during the fog earlier. I was looking for you at first, but I think I got lost. I just happened to see these copper coins on the ground, and I picked up a few. What about you? Do you have any?"

"I...I..."

Zhang Xin'ai couldn't find the copper coin earlier, and she still hasn't found it. It's likely that the mouse threw it away along with her phone when it scared her.

"No, right? Then I win?"

"Hmph! This time doesn't count."

Chen Zhe didn't expect Zhang Xin'ai to act like a rogue. He still needed her help, so how could he not accept it?

"Hey! Miss, you're the eldest daughter of the Zhang family, you can't act like a scoundrel. It's very disgraceful of you, you know that?"

When have I ever acted like a scoundrel?

"Aren't you cheating? Didn't you say whoever finds the most copper coins wins? Look, I have so many, and you don't have a single one. Don't I win?"

"Hehe, then take a look at what time it is now?"

"What time is it?"

Chen Zhe picked up his phone and took a look.

"10:20? What's wrong?"

"What do you mean, 'what happened'? You're over the time limit! You've been over the time limit by almost two hours, so of course it doesn't count!"

"You!! You didn't say that!"

Seeing Chen Zhe's exasperated look, Zhang Xin'ai crossed her arms smugly.

"Hehe, when did I not say that? We agreed from the beginning that we had a one-hour time limit. Look at what time we came out. What time was it agreed upon? I'm following the rules. If you find that many things within the time limit, then I'll admit defeat. But you've exceeded the time limit, so it definitely doesn't count."

Chen Zhe gritted his teeth and stuffed the copper coin back into his pocket.

"Fine! You win!!"

Zhang Xin'ai was very happy to see Chen Zhe get his comeuppance.

Alright! Let's go back. It's a draw today!

Zhang Xin'ai turned to go back, but by sheer coincidence, she suddenly stepped on a stone and lost her balance, falling to the ground.

"Hey, are you alright?" Chen Zhe asked.

Zhang Xin'ai tried to stand up, but found that her ankle was very painful.

"Did you sprain your ankle?"

Chen Zhe asked.

Zhang Xin'ai nodded, pouting, expecting Chen Zhe to kick her while she was down. She was prepared to face Chen Zhe's mockery.

Unexpectedly, Chen Zhe squatted down and took off her shoes. Zhang Xin'ai was startled when she saw Chen Zhe take off her shoes.

"Hey! What are you doing! Don't take advantage of me."

"Take advantage of you? Please, have you forgotten what I do?"

"ha?"

Zhang Xin'ai was puzzled.

Chen Zhe smiled and shook his head; "Have you forgotten? I'm a technician, a massage technician, and sprained ankles are my specialty."

Hearing this, Zhang Xin'ai chuckled and then felt relieved enough to fully show Chen Zhe her feet.

Chen Zhe treated her using his massage techniques.

A few minutes later he stood up and said.

"Give it a try."

Zhang Xin'ai stood up, swayed a bit, and indeed felt much better.

"Thanks."

Despite her conflict with Chen Zhe, Zhang Xin'ai was still grateful for his actions.

"No need, it's nothing, let's go back."

"Um."

The two walked back.

When we were halfway there, we heard a sound coming from ahead.

Those were the voices of Zhang Xinrui and Xie Yuhan.

After they reunited.

Zhang Xinrui couldn't help but complain, "You've been gone for so long? You didn't answer my calls, I almost suspected you eloped."

Zhang Xin'ai rolled her eyes.

"Do you think I'm like you? Eloping off with every man I see?"

"Who knows? We've always liked pretty much the same things since we were little..."

After saying that, she suddenly covered her mouth, her face turning slightly red.

Xie Yuhan's complexion also looked a little bad.

She glared at Chen Zhe with her pouty lips, making Chen Zhe's smile a little awkward.

"The night was beautiful tonight, and I couldn't help but take a few more glances, which is why I was a little late coming back."
