Tomb raiding: A mere 20 is nothing!

When we arrived in Hangzhou, dusk had fallen, and a few wisps of fiery red clouds hung in the sky, while the lanterns along the street lit up with a warm yellow light.

Shen Mingchao, full of energy, stood in front of Wushanju and took the first photo to check in.

He then pushed the door open and entered.

"Young Master San?"

The voice didn't call out Wu Xie, but instead called out a strange man.

Shen Mingchao couldn't help but burst out laughing as soon as he made eye contact with the person. The person looked listless, like a moldy mushroom.

Are you looking for my boss?

Just as Shen Mingchao was about to say "yes," an unexpected turn of events occurred!

The calico cat in his arms suddenly kicked its leg and leaped onto the man's shoulder, nuzzling affectionately against his head.

The other person was clearly startled. On one hand, they were afraid the cat would fall off their shoulder, and on the other hand, they didn't know how to catch the cat. They were completely at a loss and their face turned red with anxiety.

As the cat's owner, Shen Mingchao quickly stepped forward to stop it.

"San San, come down!"

Meow~

The cat squinted its eyes but rubbed against the man even more enthusiastically, even jumping onto his head and claiming its territory.

"No, you can't use it as a cat bed."

Shen Mingchao reached out to grab San San's neck, but the man was too tall. She stood on tiptoe for a long time, but not only did she not touch the cat, she also exhausted herself.

Black Bear, who had just parked his car and entered, saw this scene and calmly walked over.

"This is something I, Blackie, have to handle."

"ha--"

In less than a second, the cat, which had been docile just moments before, instantly activated its spine dragon mode and exploded into a ball the moment the black bear reached out.

Hei Xiazi was so angry he laughed. Who would have thought that the famous Hei Ye would be scolded by a little brat?

The key point is that he doesn't dare to do anything to this little thing.

"ha--"

"ha--"

Black Bear raised his hands and stepped back, conceding, "Fine, fine, you're the boss, I won't arrest you, okay?"

Seeing that the black bear had been defeated, Shen Mingchao reached out and tried a few more times. But the cat was like an eel, dodging and weaving.

"Meow~"

Watching the cat's tail swishing in the air, Shen Mingchao was speechless.

Has he been provoking her all along?

Can we tolerate this?

This is absolutely unacceptable.

Shen Mingchao reached out and patted the man's shoulder, saying, "Um, I really can't reach it. Why don't you squat down?"

"Hmm~~"

What's that noise? What's he whimpering about?

Shen Mingchao looked up at the man and suddenly realized that the man's condition was very strange.

His face was flushed, his chest heaved, and his breathing was intermittent, revealing an unusual panic.

What's wrong?

After much thought, Shen Mingchao came up with a possibility.

Are you allergic to cat hair?

If that's really the case, then it's going to be terrible!

Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Shen Mingchao became even more anxious and quickly reached out to forcibly pull the cat down.

At the same time, the man in front of him suddenly lost his strength, knelt down on one knee, and looked as if his bones had been removed.

This was exactly what Shen Mingchao wanted.

With lightning speed, she grabbed the cat by the scruff of its neck and pulled it back into her arms.

The matter was finally resolved, and Shen Mingchao felt it was necessary for her to apologize.

"Hello, my name is Shen Mingchao. I'm sorry, my cat is a bit naughty. How are you feeling right now? Do you need to take it to the vet for a check-up? I'll pay for the medical expenses."

Before the man in front of her could answer, another surprised male voice interrupted.

"What are you doing?"

Shen Mingchao turned around at the sound and saw four people coming down the stairs one after another. The one who spoke was Wu Xie.

No see in one day, like every three autumns.

Shen Mingchao smiled and greeted the group.

"Idols, Little Third Master, Flower Master, Fatty Master, it's been a long time!"

A few days ago, everyone learned about Shen Mingchao finding the cat through Hei Xiazi. So they weren't surprised to see the cat.

The fat man replied first: "Girl, you went out for a while and even brought a cat back with you."

Zhang Qiyu stood silently to the side, giving Shen Mingchao a barely perceptible nod.

Xie Yuchen walked over and reached out to stroke the calico cat's head. "This is San San? It's quite cute."

"Yes, calico is a great beauty in the cat world."

Seeing that Jie Yuchen truly loved cats, Shen Mingchao handed the cat to Jie Yuchen.

She has another important matter to resolve.

"Who are you to him, Third Master?" Shen Mingchao said, pointing at the man kneeling on the ground.

"He's one of my buddies, his name is Wang Meng. What just happened between you two?"

As he said this, Wu Xie didn't look at Shen Mingchao; instead, he turned his gaze to Hei Xiazi, a bad feeling creeping into his mind.

Black Bear looked somewhat displeased, but faced with the facts, he finally nodded slightly.

Yes, just like you thought, this kid has also won the lottery.

Wu Xie understood what Hei Xiazi meant. He looked at Wang Meng, who was still panting, and felt dizzy.

Damn, how did this kid get involved too?

This matter is giving him a bigger headache than dealing with the Wang family!

Wu Xie was in a terrible predicament, but the person involved was completely unaware of it.

Shen Mingchao was out of sync with everyone else present. She said apologetically, "Is he severely allergic to cat hair? I can compensate him."

Upon hearing Shen Mingchao's words, Wu Xie fell even more silent.

He didn't speak, but Wang Meng finally came to his senses and moved his mouth towards Shen Mingchao's direction. He had just said "you" when his microphone was manually muted.

This person was none other than Zhang Qilin, who suddenly appeared and covered the person's face.

Hei Xiazi chuckled and walked over, saying, "Mengmeng, it's been so long since I've seen you. Come on, let's go upstairs and catch up."

Wang Meng was stunned. He struggled for a long time to no avail and could only watch helplessly as he was carried upstairs by two centenarians.

This move left Shen Mingchao completely dumbfounded.

"Was he... helped upstairs to get his medicine?"

Wu Xie remained calm and began to spout nonsense.

"No, he's not allergic to cat fur. He just has a habit of blushing when he gets excited, even when playing games. It's nothing serious, he'll calm down upstairs."

"Oh, I see."

Shen Mingchao breathed a sigh of relief.

She was relieved as long as he wasn't actually injured.

"However, I was quite surprised that San San could be so enthusiastic towards strangers."

Shen Mingchao chuckled and casually joked, "It makes me wonder if he washed his hair with catnip."

"I think that's why."

Xie Yuchen, who hadn't spoken for a long time, revealed the truth in one sentence.

He picked up a green bottle from the table, and the cat in his arms sniffed it before reverting to its previous clingy behavior.

Shen Mingchao looked at the three words "Green Grass Ointment" on the bottle and suddenly realized what it meant.

"Case solved! Apparently, herbal balm and catnip smell very similar. No wonder I saw a red, swollen patch on his face and thought it was an allergic reaction; it turned out to be a mosquito bite."

Wu Xie was dumbfounded: How the hell can this be explained away?
