Chapter 213: Chapter 0213: The Bewilderment of the Treasure Hunter Commandant

Long Fei suggested that Fat Wang should start off as a security guard at Lin’s Group, where, at worst, he could earn three thousand yuan a month, which was enough to live on in the city.

Wang Xiaoya didn’t like this idea. She had finally escaped and didn’t want her brother to jump right back in.

Fat Wang also objected, "I’m not going to be a security guard, I came to the city to do big things. If others knew I was just a doorman in the city, they’d laugh me to death."

Wang Xiaoya scolded him, "Wang Shengli, can’t you have a proper work attitude? You didn’t even graduate from high school, what big thing can you do?"

Long Fei looked at him too, curious to hear what he had in mind.

Now that Long Fei had plenty of money, he could invest in a shop for him as long as he was smart about it.

After taking a sip of his drink, Fat Wang mumbled, "Do you guys read novels? There are two popular tomb-raiding books recently, one is ’Ghost Blows Out the Light,’ and the other is ’Grave Robbers’ Chronicles.’ Both feature a fat guy surnamed Wang! I think they’re really like me, people born extraordinary! So, I’m planning to find a partner and start tomb raiding!"

He talked so loud that the surrounding people turned their heads to look.

Wang Xiaoya quickly covered his mouth, cursing in frustration, "What nonsense are you spouting? Tomb raiding is illegal, do you want to end up in prison?"

Fat Wang pulled her hand away and said, "Sis, making big money is risky. Working honestly like you and your husband, when will you be able to afford a house and a car in this city?"

Wang Xiaoya and Long Fei exchanged glances, completely puzzled.

Well, he did have a point.

"Do you really want to do adventure stuff?"

Long Fei asked him.

Fat Wang replied, "Of course, look at me, I’ve already bought the equipment."

He took off a pendant hanging around his neck and showed it to Long Fei and Wang Xiaoya, tapping it on the table.

It looked like a claw, obviously bought from a roadside stall, with exaggerated and poor workmanship.

Fat Wang boasted, "See this? This is a Treasure Hunter Commandant Talisman. I had a friend get it from the antique market; cost me over three thousand yuan!"

"Three thousand yuan?"

Wang Xiaoya was surprised. She picked up the item, her face filled with consternation, "For this chicken claw? It cost three thousand yuan? Wang Shengli, have you lost your mind?"

Fat Wang grabbed it back from her, unhappy, "Sis, you don’t understand, can’t you stop talking nonsense? This is a pangolin’s claw, used for digging holes. What chicken claw?"

Wang Xiaoya was close to tears; damn it, she worked so hard in the city, sending money home every month.

Little did she know, this guy was spending money so recklessly.

To her, a chicken claw was the same as a pangolin claw—they were both used for digging.

Long Fei realized his brother-in-law was obsessed with tomb raiding.

Blaming novels and movies for bad influences is nothing new. Before, after watching gangster movies, kids would run around the streets brandishing cleavers.

Now with tomb raiding in vogue, people run around the world with Luoyang spades.

During his school days, Long Fei had read some of these books but was never as obsessed as Wang Shengli.

The books indeed had a "Fat Wang" that was a lot like his brother-in-law—both were equally unreliable.

He instructed Fat Wang, "Okay, how about this: I’ll put you in touch with a friend of mine who has a team that specializes in adventures. I’ll see if she’s looking for someone and get you introduced."

"Really?"

Fat Wang was surprised. Long Fei didn’t look like someone who would have such connections!

He couldn’t help but ask, "Brother-in-law, what exactly do you do for a living?"

"Security guard, now a bodyguard!"

Long Fei responded calmly.

"A doorman, huh!"

Fat Wang called out suddenly, looking at his sister, finally understanding why Long Fei had suggested he become a security guard.

Turns out, his cheap brother-in-law was just a doorman.

Fat Wang looked at Wang Xiaoya, feeling sorry for his foolish sister.

Look, with such good conditions, such good looks, almost like a goddess, she ended up with a security guard for a boyfriend.

Wang Xiaoya finally couldn’t help but lecture, "Wang Shengli, get your attitude straight. Your brother-in-law works diligently no matter what he does; he’s not like you, neglecting his duties. And you still have the face to look down on others?"

She didn’t reveal Long Fei’s status as a shareholder, afraid that Fat Wang might get ideas about targeting Long Fei.

This kid really had no sense of judgment, always finding ways to belittle others.

"Right, right, I’m shameless, I’m even more shameless than a doorman."

Fat Wang said with sullen sarcasm.

Long Fei’s hand twitched, and as soon as Wang Xiaoya saw it, she quickly held it with hers.

She knew Long Fei’s temper and was worried he would hit his own brother.

Long Fei indeed wanted to beat up this fatso, but considering he was Wang Xiaoya’s brother, he restrained himself and let it pass.

After the three of them finished eating, they went back home together.

Wang Xiaoya tidied up her brother’s place again, spread out the bedsheets, swept the floors, and wiped the windows; she was busy until midnight before returning to Long Fei’s room.

Long Fei was lying on the bed, sending WeChat messages with Li Zhenni, Miss Li.

This Miss Li was actually Chu Feng’s fiancée, but their relationship didn’t seem that great.

Chu Feng didn’t like constraints, and Li Zhenni didn’t seem like a woman who was easy to provoke.

Just one look at their compatibility and you could tell it wasn’t good, it was uncertain if they could even end up together.

Li Zhenni’s grandfather and Lin Yingying’s grandfather used to be adventure buddies. Ever since returning from Gui Xu Country, Elder Master Lin had stopped indulging in such activities.

However, Elder Li was still as sharp as ever, continuing to fuss about at every opportunity.

Only now, with his legs disabled, he could only satisfy his cravings with his eyes.

In Li Zhenni’s WeChat Moments, there were only photos of adventures.

Dunhuang, Lop Nur, Mount Everest, the Egyptian Pyramids—she had been around all the famed expedition sites in the world.

Exploration was not a journey one could embark on alone; it required the support of a team.

Long Fei relayed Fat Wang’s qualifications to Li Zhenni: incomplete high school education, weighing 180 pounds.

With no particular skills to his name, his only selling point was his passion for archaeology.

Li Zhenni made it clear to Long Fei that Fat Wang wasn’t suitable.

Their exploration team required a minimum educational qualification: a bachelor’s degree in archaeology from a university, with qualifications in rock climbing and rescue, among others.

Just as Long Fei felt disappointed, she added another line, saying that for his sake, they could consider giving Fat Wang a chance.

She gave Long Fei an address and asked him to bring Fat Wang over for a look the next day.

Tomorrow was Saturday, and Long Fei had promised Lin Shanshan to attend some Binhai University welcome party.

She and Li Wenwen seemed to have a performance, and they insisted on dragging Long Fei to watch.

Long Fei had originally planned to spend the day with Wang Xiaoya, but now he had to accompany his brother-in-law instead.

When Wang Xiaoya entered the room, she sat on the bed, exhausted, and grasped Long Fei’s hand, saying, "I’m sorry, my brother has always been like this, you’re not angry with him, are you?"

Long Fei joked, "Angry, of course I’m angry. Comrade Wang Xiaoya, you’d better think about how to soothe my outraged little heart."

Wang Xiaoya smiled, got up, and lay on top of him, kissed his lips, and asked, "Are you still angry now?"

"That’s not nearly enough!"

Long Fei laughed as he lifted her up and pressed her beneath him.

She hurriedly propped herself against Long Fei with her hands, blushing as she exclaimed, "Wait, I haven’t even washed up yet!"

"I can’t wait!"

Long Fei’s eyes gleamed as he pounced on her like a predator spotting his prey.

Feeling indebted to him, Wang Xiaoya wrapped her arms around his neck and cooperated obediently.

Soon, a flame was ignited in the room.
