Tomb robber: Tuantuan, I am a national treasure!

"elder brother?"

"Ah."

Er Yuehong pulled him to his seat and poured a cup of tea for Jinnian.

The rising mist is dense, floating in the air with a faint scent of tea.

Huo Jinxi took everyone away, and the fairy went to watch the fun, leaving only Jinnian, Er Yuehong, and Zhang Qishan.

When these annoying things just happened, other people stayed away from them, not daring to offend them, let alone come and socialize, for fear that if they were not careful, they would flatter the wrong person and get kicked to death.

The hall, which was bustling just now, was almost empty within a quarter of an hour. Some were socializing from a distance, some didn't want to interact with people and went to the dinner table early, and some simply called the servants and walked around the Huo Mansion, hoping to find out about other people's preferences and get rich overnight.

Not many people talked to Jinnian in the first place, and he thought that he was unpopular, but in fact, people were afraid to talk to him. Now that everyone has left, he feels at ease.

With his lively big eyes, he looked here and there and asked questions curiously.

"What does she want from me?"

"What did she tell you?"

Er Yuehong didn't want to talk about shady things, but he also didn't want Jinnian to be kept in the dark.

"I didn't say anything. Mr. Ba stood in front of me. I didn't like her a little, so I didn't really listen."

Jinnian recalled, holding a teacup in his hand for a long time, but because the tea was still hot, he put it down again.

Zhang Qishan sighed: "Old Eight is still somewhat useful."

"She seemed to mention that I fell asleep before?" Jinnian said uncertainly. He was blocked behind and couldn't hear clearly.

After Jinnian said this, Zhang Qishan's face changed instantly, and Er Yuehong frowned, his brows tensed. Jinnian felt the air pressure around him drop, and quietly poked Er Yuehong's arm on the table.

"Is it serious?"

Er Yuehong grabbed his hand with his backhand.

“Year after year, we are here.”

Yes, he has a brother, Master Fo, and Master Ba and the others. So what does it matter if the case is serious or not?

Relying on the fact that no one dared to eavesdrop, Zhang Qishan crossed his long legs and tapped the table with his bent knuckles.

"If she dares to come, she will never return."

After hearing the voice, Jinnian raised his eyes and glanced at the other person. In that glance, his eyes met the other person's.

Zhang Qishan had sharp eyebrows and eyes, and his upturned eyes were full of recklessness. Jinnian didn't know what he saw in his eyes. Perhaps it was confidence? Or perhaps it was some emotion that he couldn't understand.

"are you hungry?"

Jinnian was stunned. Just as she came back to her senses from Zhang Qishan's eyes, she met Er Yuehong's somewhat cold eyes.

Looking more closely, there was no coldness at all, but full of pampering. The other person gently rubbed his wrist, probably because he noticed that Jinnian couldn't stop touching his belly.

"Yes, a little bit......"

The sunlight shines through the carved window lattices into the room, making it bright and warm near noon.

In fact, it was only an hour since breakfast, but Jinnian was inexplicably hungry.

The morning meals actually had quite a variety of options, including the exquisite steamed dumplings, which were small and exquisite, with thin skin and large fillings. When you took a bite, the delicious soup would overflow in your mouth. There were also the soft and glutinous pastries specially selected by Jinnian, all of which exuded a faint sweet fragrance. Although the portion of each was small, Jinnian did eat a lot overall.

Jinnian subconsciously touched her belly, and found that the slightly bulging part had indeed deflated.

He frowned slightly and muttered to himself, why is my stomach not feeling very hungry?

The other two people were not too surprised. After all, at Jinnian's age, he is still growing, so it is normal for him to be hungry.

Er Yuehong was wearing a crescent-colored robe, the hem of which was slightly wrinkled, because of being squeezed by the group of people just now.

Jinnian touched the delicate patterns embroidered on his cuffs. Er Yuehong let him touch it, his sword-like eyebrows slightly raised, and tenderness revealed in his eyes.

He looked at Jinnian and said softly to him, "I don't know when Sanniang will be back. Should I take you out first?"

Er Yuehong was seeking Jinnian's opinion. After all, Jinnian had been feeling very depressed recently, so it was necessary for him to relax appropriately.

But he was a little unsure. Judging from Jinnian's performance just now, Jinnian didn't seem to like this kind of occasion very much? But when the Nine Sects gathered before, he was a little happier than now. Could it be that this time he was a little reserved because there were too few acquaintances?

As Er Yuehong spoke, he unconsciously stretched out his hand. His slender fingers with distinct joints looked like white jade under the sunlight. When he gently stroked Jinnian's belly with his hand stained with the hot temperature of tea, Jinnian could not help but tremble.

The touch, without any force, was like a gentle breeze blowing by, just lingering for a moment.

Zhang Qishan watched from the side and helped him tie up his hair, revealing his smooth forehead. Jinnian's clear eyes drooped and his cheeks flushed slightly.

Before he could respond, a beautiful female voice was heard, echoing in the hall.

"No, I'm back."

Huo Jinxi walked out from behind the screen accompanied by the sound of high heels tapping.

She was wearing a purple cheongsam, with a graceful figure and exquisite curves. The cheongsam was embroidered with exquisite flowers, which sparkled under the warm yellow light. I don't know when her hair was tied up, and there was a delicate hairpin inserted in it.

She was holding something similar to a brush in her hand, waving it gently. As she walked forward, she glared at Qi Tiezui behind her with her beautiful eyes.

Behind her, Qi Tiezui was bewildered and timid, just like the young wife.

Qi Tiezui's grey robe was a little wrinkled, his round-frame glasses and hair were a little messy. He lowered his head, and Jinnian began to wonder if he had just been beaten.

But then I thought, Jin Xi has always been gentle, how could she hit someone? Maybe Master Ba was mistaken for a thief and kicked him out again?

Jinnian raised his eyebrows, lowered his head and looked carefully, and sure enough, he found a faint shoe print on Qi Tiezui's robe. It was gray, and because the color was thicker than his clothes, it was difficult to see clearly... Well, fortunately his eyes were good.

"Oh, Sanniang and Ba Ye are back? How was the talk?" Zhang Qishan waved his hand and smiled as if nothing had happened.

His facial features were well-defined, his eyes were deep, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised on his beautiful face, but that smile seemed to have a hint of gloating.

Qi Tiezui was silently teasing him behind his back, making it seem as if his current condition had nothing to do with Zhang Qishan.

It's all because of the Buddha's dishonesty. Why did he expose him? Humph, I'll draw a circle and curse him when I get home.

Qi Tiezui glanced at Zhang Qishan secretly, his heart full of dissatisfaction.

Zhang Qishan naturally saw that the other party was aggrieved and had a resentful look in his eyes, but he never cared.

Huo Jinxi was a little angry when she saw a few people flirting with each other here and not taking her seriously at all. However, she was in the wrong to begin with and it was not easy for her to lose her temper.

I could only feel depressed and put the brush against my forehead.

When I looked up, I saw Jinnian's conflicted look, and a plan came to my mind.

"Jinnian?"

"Ok!"

"Second Master just said you were hungry. How about I take you to find something to eat?"

Jinnian subconsciously looked back at Er Yuehong, then looked at the guests who were huddled in the corners, trying hard to reduce their presence, and spoke a little embarrassedly.

"Forget it, Jinxi is the protagonist today and she is dressed very beautifully. If she follows me, no one will be able to see her............."

“Hahahaha…what’s the big deal? Well, this banquet is meaningless anyway. It’s been messed up so badly. Let’s just eat early.”

"?"

Jinnian tilted his head. He had originally thought that he could just ask Jinxi to find a servant to take him there, so why did they have to start eating already?

What about the activities in between? Didn’t the fairy say there would be some performances? ............... It’s over!

Er Yuehong rubbed Jinnian's head, as if he knew what he was thinking, and opened his thin lips slightly.

"Sanniang's own banquet, of course she can do whatever she wants. Didn't Mr. Ba say that the chef is very good? We can look forward to it."

"Okay?"

Since Sanniang said so and her brother also said so, Jinnian didn't care.

"Baby, you have a big heart. Is this an advantage or a disadvantage?"

Zhang Qishan said it softly, deliberately lowering his voice, so that only Er Yuehong, who was standing nearby, could hear it. Er Yuehong glanced at him, obviously not happy about her precious brother being called "baby" by others.

"Master Buddha, please be careful with your words."

"Okay, okay, be careful with your words. By the way, how is the Second Master preparing for the Liyuan event? How long will it take?"

"Isn't Master Buddha's place not ready yet? Master Buddha should worry about himself first."

"Yeah........I'm not ready.............."

"Brother? Master Buddha? What are you talking about?"

Jinnian turned around and pushed Qi Tiezui, who was trying to hold his arm and suck in his blessings. Instead of pushing him away, he simply dragged him over.
