Xie Yuchen staggered over Wu Xie's arm, steadied his body, and shook Wu Xie hard. Wu Xie's hazy eyes gradually became clear.

"Xiaohua? I remember we were poisoned, right? How come we are fine now?"

He looked around and saw Zhang Hanyan with a smile on her face and Zhang Qiling with a slightly frown on his brow.

"Brother, Hanyan..."

Wu Xie shook his still groggy head, trying to clear himself up.

When he raised his hand to slap his head, Xie Yuchen had already staggered to his feet. After steadying himself, he walked towards Huo Xiuxiu who was sitting blankly on the bed.

"Xiu Xiu, are you okay?"

He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Huo Xiuxiu's eyes. Huo Xiuxiu came to her senses, looked at him, and slowly shook her head.

"I'm fine, Brother Xiaohua."

"Ah That's good."

After he said that, he looked at Wu Xie who was slowly standing up with the help of the table. After making sure that he was not seriously injured, he looked at Hei Xia Zi who was about to wake up.

Hei Xia Zi raised his hand to rub his swollen and aching temple, then supported his body and leaned on the stool behind him.

"Hua Er Ye...why are you looking at me like that?"

"Humph! You still dare to ask."

Xie Yuchen glared at him and pointed at Wu Xie and Huo Xiuxiu.

"Look, you said that the green onion was edible and the soup was delicious, but now everyone is poisoned.

If my sister hadn’t eaten it before, we would all have to die on that plate of green onion.”

Hei Xia Zi calmed down, looked up at Zhang Qiling and Zhang Hanyan, and grinned.

"Hehehe... Hanyan, luckily you had foresight, otherwise, we would really be finished. Oh, if everyone died on a plate of mushrooms...

Tsk tsk tsk, the guests who come to the funeral will probably laugh their heads off... Um, mute? I remember you ate it too, right? How come you're okay?"

He stared at Zhang Qiling, his eyes full of confusion.

Zhang Qiling glanced at Hei Xia Zi indifferently, then turned his head slightly so as not to let Hei Xia Zi see his face which was gradually getting darker.

Zhang Hanyan turned to look at Zhang Qiling, whose face was as cold as ice, and smiled.

Their eyes met, and there was no need to say anything, everything was self-explanatory.

Hei Xia Zi looked at Zhang Qiling, then at Zhang Hanyan, wondering what the two of them were talking about.

He stood up with the help of a stool, sat down on it, and leaned back against the back of the chair.

"As the saying goes, if you walk along the river, you'll get your feet wet. I never thought that people like us would dare to go to any dangerous place, such as tomb raiding and grave robbing, and we are not afraid of zongzi or evil corpses.

But I never expected that so many people would all fall for a plate of fried mushrooms. Who would believe this if I told anyone else?"

He muttered to himself, completely unaware of Jie Yuchen and Wu Xie, who had rolled their eyes several times.

"When you wake up, please take care of each other. My brother and I will go check on Fatty and Yuncai."

"Okay, let's wait for a while and then go downstairs to find you."

Zhang Hanyan looked at them and after making sure there was no problem, she went with Zhang Qiling to check on the fat man.

Wu Xie picked up the teapot on the table, poured a few cups of water, and looked at Xie Yuchen and Huo Xiuxiu.

"Xiaohua, Xiuxiu, come over and drink some water."

"it is good."

Xie Yuchen helped Huo Xiuxiu stand up, and together they walked to Wu Xie, picked up the teacup and drank it all.

On the first floor, Zhang Qiling pushed open the fat man's door and took a quick glance. The fat man was not in the room.

"He's not in now."

"It should be in the Cloud House. Let's go check it out."

"Ah."

They walked to the door of Yuncai's room, pushed it open, and saw Fatty holding Yuncai with a worried look on his face.

His hand gently stroked Yuncai's cheek, and their eyes met. There was a deep love between them, and they were hesitant to speak.

"Um.....Sorry to bother you, please continue, continue..."

Zhang Hanyan quickly came back to her senses from her daze, turned around, pushed Zhang Qiling out of the room, and closed the door neatly.

Zhang Qiling looked at the blush on both sides of her cheeks, bent down, and gazed into her eyes gently.

"what happened?"

He curled his lips and chuckled, with a hint of amusement in his eyes.

"No, I just felt a little awkward. I should have knocked before going in."

As Zhang Hanyan spoke, she recalled the intimate scene she had just seen and suddenly felt extremely regretful. She looked down at her hands with a frown on her face.

"Why didn't I think of knocking on the door first, little brother..."

She looked up at him, only to see that he looked normal, without any sign of abnormality.

"Didn't you see it just now? Don't you feel embarrassed?"

Zhang Qiling shook his head, "No, he looked at us before."

"What do you mean? When did Fatty do that when he saw us..."

Zhang Hanyan thought carefully in her mind. No matter how she thought about it, in her memory, Fatty and the others had never seen such an intimate scene between her and Zhang Qiling.

In front of Wu Xie, Fatty and the others, they just held hands at most, but just now, Fatty and Yun Cai were about to kiss.

"On the second day after arriving here, Wu Xie and Fatty came upstairs to call us to eat. You see, I was holding you and sleeping."

There was a barely perceptible smile hidden in Zhang Qiling's calm tone.

"What did you say!"

Zhang Hanyan's eyes widened in shock. She was asleep at the time and was completely unaware of the incident and had no recollection of it at all.

"You...why didn't you tell me before?"

She could clearly feel her cheeks getting hot. The bright light shone on her. Her black, smooth hair emitted bits of golden light. Her ears, which were hidden by her hair, slowly turned red.

"I think it's nothing."

Zhang Qiling's gaze was passionate and frank, as clear as a lake, and as bright and clear as the full moon.

Through his eyes, Zhang Hanyan seemed to see a peaceful world that was so irresistible that she couldn't help but want to indulge in it.

She stood there staring for a long time, took a deep breath, turned her head, and said helplessly.

"Forget it. It's been so long anyway. I think they should have forgotten. He looks at us once, and we look at him once. We're even."

Zhang Qiling narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his hand and stroked her flushed cheek, his warm fingertips resting on her lips, his voice gentle and low.

"Well, so now, can we go back?"

Zhang Hanyan looked up at the balcony on the second floor. Wu Xie, Jie Yuchen and the others had walked out of the house and were heading towards the stairs.

"Go back. It's quite sunny."

She adjusted her mood, tried her best to put aside the embarrassment lingering in her heart, and let Zhang Qiling lead her and slowly walk towards the cool eaves.
