Traveling Through the Grave Robbers' Chronicles: Starting from Meeting You

Xi Liu walked forward while holding onto Zhang Mo tightly, not letting him leave her side even a step.

He was not afraid that Zhang Mo would hang around Zhang Hanyan, but he felt that Huo Xiuxiu, who had been following him, was too annoying.

Xiliu didn't know why Huo Xiuxiu fell in love with him for no reason. These days, whenever she saw him alone, she would immediately stick to him.

Now, everyone in Beijing who had ears and eyes knew that Huo Xiuxiu was chasing him relentlessly in order to catch him.

Zhang Mo kept trying to pull his hand free, but Xi Liu was holding on too tightly and he couldn't.

"Xi Liu, can you please let go? What are you afraid of? She's just a little girl, she won't eat you!"

Xi Liu rolled her eyes when she heard that and hugged Zhang Mo's hand even tighter.

"Don't worry about it! Today, don't even think about leaving me alone to face that young lady behind me!"

Zhang Mo looked at Huo Xiuxiu behind them, and thought about what she had done in the past few days, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Okay, for the sake of our long-standing brotherhood, I promise to stay with you every step of the way for the next few days."

"Good brother, thank you very much!"

The two of them walked forward whispering to each other, with no intention of stopping.

Huo Xiuxiu, who was standing behind, looked at Xi Liu who was holding onto Zhang Mo tightly and refused to let go. She knew that he was on guard against her.

Ever since Huo Xiuxiu saw Xi Liu at Xie Yuchen's house, she fell uncontrollably in love with him.

Before she expressed her feelings to Xi Liu, Xi Liu was polite to her. But after she expressed her feelings, Xi Liu immediately avoided her like the plague.

She knew that Xi Liu was a member of the Zhang family and was much older than her.

But none of this mattered, she just liked him, and she decided that she would pursue him no matter what.

Huo Xiuxiu quickly concealed the slight disappointment in her eyes and caught up with Xiliu in front of her with a smile.

"Wow! It's so lively here. There are quite a lot of people here. It seems I'm late."

Aning walked into everyone's sight with a smile. After Jude Kao got the two rings from the Zhang family's ancient building, he died after living for three months.

Aning can now be considered a wealthy woman who is free both physically and mentally. After all, Jude Kao has always paid her a high salary, which is enough for her to live the rest of her life without worries about food and clothing.

"We are not late. We all just arrived not long ago. Aning, come and sit down."

Wu Xie greeted Aning with a smile and handed her a cup of tea at the right temperature.

"Master San! I brought a whole sheep. We will roast it tonight."

Pan Zi came in carrying a well-groomed sheep. He looked at Wu Xie in the crowd and pointed at the sheep on his shoulder.

"Got it. Put it in the kitchen. Han Yan and Fatty are in the kitchen now. Just give it to Fatty."

"Okay!"

Pan Zi strode into the kitchen and placed a whole lamb on the empty table under the Fatty's astonished gaze.

"Sure, Pan Zi, it's such a big gift!"

The fat man walked up to him and looked at the lamb on the table. Just one glance, and he had already thought of hundreds of ways to cook lamb.

"This thing is not expensive. I just thought it would taste better when more people eat it. I have already prepared it. I just need to marinate it and then grill it."

"Okay, Hanyan, I'll pickle the sheep, and Yuncai will help you prepare the ingredients."

"it is good."

As soon as Zhang Hanyan finished speaking, the people who were sitting in the living room just now rushed into the kitchen. Fortunately, the kitchen was big enough, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate so many people.

"Why did you all come in?"

Zhang Hanyan looked at them in confusion. Each of them had a smile on their face, except, of course, Xiliu, whose arm was held by Huo Xiuxiu.

"Sister, it's New Year's Day, of course we can't just let you busy in the kitchen, there are so many of us, we can all help."

Xie Yuchen walked over to Zhang Hanyan with a smile, took the vegetables that she had not yet picked, and found a place to sit down and pick them up.

Soon, everyone found a job that suited them, and they were either standing or sitting, busy with their own tasks.

The once quiet kitchen is now bustling with noise and excitement. People are talking and joking, and everyone's face is filled with happy smiles.

While everyone was busy, Xiliu quietly approached Zhang Hanyan.

He looked at Huo Xiuxiu who was talking to the clouds in the distance, his eyes searching every corner.

After making sure that Zhang Qiling was not in sight, he dared to reach out and pull Zhang Hanyan's sleeve, and whispered.

"Saint, can you do me a favor?"

"what?"

Zhang Hanyan stopped peeling garlic and looked up at Xiliu.

Xi Liu pointed at Huo Xiuxiu in the distance and said, "Can you tell her not to appear in front of me again? She's really annoying."

"What's wrong, Xiuxiu likes you? Is she pursuing you?"

Xiliu nodded, his furrowed brows seemed to reveal his irritability and distress.

"You don't like her?"

Xi Liu shook her head quickly, as if she was afraid that if she was a step slower she would be misunderstood by Zhang Hanyan.

Zhang Hanyan looked at Huo Xiuxiu, then at Xiliu who looked in pain.

"You've been single for so many years, are you sure you don't want to give it a try with her? If I make a move, there will be no chance to regret it."

"I beg you, please do it quickly, otherwise, I will really be annoyed to death by her! I will never regret it, I promise!"

Xi Liu might have been really annoyed by Huo Xiuxiu, and he didn't even hesitate for a moment and even asked for help.

Zhang Hanyan saw his determination and nodded helplessly.

"That's fine, but I want to know, what does Xiuxiu see in you?"

She paused after she finished speaking and looked at Xiliu's face.

“Forget it, you don’t have to answer, I already know, I didn’t expect that the women of the Huo family are all people who look at appearance.

Back then, Huo Ling fell in love with the young man's face, and now Huo Xiuxiu falls in love with your face."

Xiliu touched his face and said subconsciously.

"If it's this face, then if I scratch it, will she stop bothering me?"

Zhang Hanyan didn't expect him to say such a thing, nor did she expect that he would actually cut his face in order to completely get rid of Huo Xiuxiu.

"Don't! I have a way to make her forget you, but if she is attracted to your face, I advise you to wear an uglier human skin mask when you are with her in the future."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Saint. Please hurry up..."

"I know. I'll give it to you when you leave. Just feed it to her."

Xi Liu nodded contentedly. When he thought that he would no longer be entangled by Huo Xiuxiu, he couldn't help but smile.

Zhang Hanyan looked at him and thought, poor kid, he has been pushed to such a state.

[Normal. As the old saying goes, a virtuous woman is afraid of a clinging man, and vice versa is the same.]

[You know a lot about this broken system!]

[Hehehe... Isn't this just too much knowledge, hehehe...]

"Yanyan."

Zhang Qiling stood outside the window, looking at her seriously.

"Ok?"

Zhang Hanyan shifted her gaze away from Xiliu and turned to look at him. From his expression, she knew that what he was going to talk about was definitely not an ordinary matter.

"There are people outside, a lot of people. I came to ask you if you want to let them in."

Zhang Qiling pointed to the gate. He did not let them in without permission, thinking of asking her opinion first.

"Who is it? Aren't all the people here?"

Zhang Hanyan walked out of the kitchen with a puzzled look on her face, and headed towards the door with Zhang Qiling.

Seeing their serious looks, the others walked out of the kitchen and stood in the garden, all looking towards the door.

Zhang Qiling opened the door and Zhang Hanyan looked outside. There were indeed many people standing at the door, and each of them was an old acquaintance of theirs.
