All of them were seasoned veterans who had made their way in the business empire. Although they were equally curious about what the ancient tomb in the Northwest was all about, they wisely refrained from going over there and causing trouble.
Taking the opportunity, Elder Lang added Yan Jiu and Guan Zi'an as friends and shared the information his old friend had sent him with them.
When Yan Jiu clicked on it, she was shocked to find that it was the desert no-man's-land that she had once found very strange.
As seen in satellite images.
Rolling dark clouds hung in the sky.
The desert collapsed, revealing a tomb that had been covered by sand and guarded for hundreds of years.
The area around the tomb has been deserted for a long time.
This makes the tomb look like an abandoned grave.
However, what caught the attention of the authorities was the inscription on the tombstone outside the tomb: "Those who enter this tomb will not be able to be reborn in the Pure Land."
Old Lang sighed, "People often have a rebellious streak."
Guan Zian's eyes were icy: "Someone is trying to offend us."
Because of the discovery of the ancient tomb in the no-man's-land, a fierce look suddenly appeared in his eyes.
Old Master Lang was slightly surprised: This child has a scholarly air about him, so why does his words and expression carry a hint of hostility?
Yan Jiu didn't notice Guan Zi'an.
Her gaze was fixed on the architecture of the ancient tomb, as if she wanted to see through the entire tomb.
Old Lang noticed Yan Jiu's interest: "After research, this tomb was found to be a building from the Ming Dynasty in 1544. It has a history of nearly 500 years, yet it is well preserved, which is rare. No wonder the people in the archaeological community are excited."
Yan Jiu replied, "They can't get in."
She did some quick calculations with her fingers.
They then deduced that there were formations and hidden weapons outside the tomb.
This is also why the archaeological team has made little progress despite the ancient tomb being discovered so many days ago.
Old Lang smiled and said, "Interested?"
Yan Jiu said, half-jokingly, "It would be a lie to say I'm not interested. I'm sentimental and I like collecting antiques."
Guan Zian's tense, low-pitched breathing, caused by the discovery of the ancient tomb, suddenly relaxed after hearing Yan Jiu's words.
If the discovery of the ancient tomb is predetermined, then only one person is qualified to go and bother General Turan.
Guan Zian watched as Yan Jiu and Elder Lang exchanged business cards and phone numbers. He smiled calmly and stood silently to the side.
Just as Yan Jiu joined Elder Lang's team and was planning to discuss when to go to the ancient tomb in the Northwest.
Chu Sisi also attended the banquet.
Because she had no intention of confronting Yan Jiu head-on, Chu Sisi had been fulfilling her filial duties to her fiancé's parents these past few days.
By attending the banquet, isn't she just telling everyone that she's a fake heiress who has usurped someone else's place?
so.
She pretended to be sick and didn't want to come.
Unable to resist Chu's mother's insistence.
Chu Sisi was welcomed by her peers as soon as she arrived.
"Sisi, why are you only arriving now? Your sister is quite the big shot."
"You have such beautiful handwriting, I've never heard you mention it before."
"You've kept this a secret quite well. The aura she exudes is something that can't be cultivated in an ordinary family."
"He's good-looking, and his handwriting alone is something many of his peers can only dream of."
Before the banquet, many people were waiting to see your family make a fool of themselves; now you're in for a treat.
Chu Sisi thought everyone was there to comfort her, but she didn't expect that eight out of ten sentences would be about Yan Jiu.
She squeezed the pearl bag in her hand.
Her smile almost froze.
Chu Sisi frowned: "My sister... eh."
She deliberately left things unsaid.
It has sparked countless people's imaginations.
Why are you sighing, Sisi?
"If I had a sister like that, I'd be laughing in my sleep."
"Perhaps Yan Jiu's calligraphy is only passable, how can he compare to our Sisi's overflowing talent?"
So why are you sighing?
Because Yan Jiu was always surrounded by people, Li Xiaoli hesitated to approach Yan Jiu and catch up with them.
After seeing Chu Sisi.
She had intended to exchange a few subtle words with the person.
Then I heard the second half of Chu Sisi's sentence.
"My sister is great in every way, except her job is a bit..."
Li Xiaoli puffed out her cheeks: Was Chu Sisi implying that Sister Jiu Jiu's work was unbearable?!
She was about to walk over.
Surrounded by a group of wealthy young ladies, Chu Sisi walked towards her parents.
Li Xiaoli hurriedly sent a private message to Yan Jiu to report him, and then lifted her skirt and followed him.
They were stopped halfway there.
"Look around, who else is running around lifting their skirt like that? Aren't you ashamed?"
The impeccably dressed man reached out and stopped Li Xiaoli.
Li Xiaoli glared at her stepmother's adopted brother, saying irritably, "What's it to you! If I lose face, it's my face that's being lost, what does it have to do with you, surnamed Huo?"
Huo Yu appeared dazed.
It feels like it's been a long time since I've been criticized.
For a moment, I was somewhat taken aback.
Huo Yu changed the subject: "Uncle Li misses you a lot. Come home and visit when you have time. Don't always hold grudges against your family..."
Li Xiaoli interrupted her impatiently, "Are you alright? If I don't go back to the Li family, isn't it still your and your mother's world? Are you trying to annoy me by urging me to go back?"
Huo Yu looked at Li Xiaoli, who had a strong prejudice against him, and a hint of sorrow appeared in his eyes beneath his sword-like eyebrows.
"Want some drinks?"
Huo Yu looked at Liu Fei, who handed him the wine glass: "Officer Liu, don't you usually not participate in these kinds of activities?"
Liu Fei rarely wore a suit he'd kept hidden away: "There's no way around it, Director Yan is an exception."
Huo Yu narrowed his eyes: "If I remember correctly, old classmate, isn't your crush Ma Weiwei?"
Liu Fei choked: "Cough, I only have respect for Director Yan, I don't have such a heavy taste as yours to have a crush on Li Xiaoli."
Huo Yu clinked glasses with Liu Fei and drank it all in one gulp: "Thank you for taking care of her these past few days."
Liu Fei: "..."
She's my cousin after all, so it's only right that I take care of her.
But speaking of taking care of someone...
Does he have it?
