Chapter 1176: Chapter 20: Best Friends

The excavation work has just begun, and only the entrance of the tomb has been uncovered. Many archaeological experts are diligently studying the murals and carvings at the entrance.

Han Ting and Huang Shiyuan are assisting an expert with the mural rubbings.

Strictly speaking, there’s nothing much to see yet.

The Emperor of Fortune’s coffin is unlikely to be seen anytime soon. The country’s attitude toward the Earth King’s tomb has always been more about protection than excavation. Therefore, the progress of the excavation is expected to be very slow.

After Chen Jinglou and Tianmiao went up, Chen Jinglou instructed someone to send Han Ting and Huang Shiyuan back to school later, then left with Tianmiao by car.

...

On Monday, when Huang Shiyuan and Han Ting got up, they saw Tianmiao already packing her books.

"You’re back!" Han Ting and Huang Shiyuan exclaimed with surprise at the same time.

"Hurry and get up, you little lazy pigs, do you want to be late?" Tianmiao waved the book in her hand.

"Tianmiao, Tianmiao, you’re actually Chen BOSS’s aunt!" Han Ting got up, hair disheveled, and asked.

"Brush your teeth and comb your hair before talking to me." Tianmiao said with a look of disdain.

"Ah, do I have bad breath?" Han Ting blew into her hand.

"No." Tianmiao shook her head, "But you do have sleep in your eyes."

"Ah—!" Han Ting shrieked and rushed to freshen up.

Huang Shiyuan blinked wisely, said nothing, and also hurried to freshen up.

Once the two were ready, they looked at Tianmiao with bright, shiny eyes: "Quick, tell us what’s going on."

"Oh, it’s very simple; he’s my nephew, and I’m his aunt." Tianmiao said with a smile.

"Are you and Chen BOSS’s mom sisters? But you’re younger than Chen BOSS." Huang Shiyuan said.

"Chen BOSS’s mom passed away a long time ago. She was frail and sickly, and most people in the circle know this." Han Ting added.

"That’s why I’m here; I’m a test-tube baby. And the family kept this a secret all along." Tianmiao lied without batting an eye.

"I see." Han Ting nodded, her imagination running wild, picturing Chen’s mother mourning deeply for losing her daughter in middle age, missing her too much, so they had Tianmiao through a test-tube. Then they kept it hidden, fearing that Tianmiao would be coveted by too many people and thus lose her fortune and die young, so very few people knew about Tianmiao’s existence.

"No wonder Tianmiao’s family is so wealthy. Turns out she’s Chen BOSS’s aunt." Huang Shiyuan also sighed, "Tianmiao’s family owns islands! Chen BOSS’s family must have them too, right?"

"Yes, he might have a dozen islands. We can vacation on the most scenic one in the future." Tianmiao said.

"That’s awesome. Happiness came too fast; I feel a little dizzy." Huang Shiyuan said contentedly.

"By the way, when you were away over the weekend, Zhang Mengfei came back." Han Ting suddenly said.

"What did she come back for?" Tianmiao asked casually.

"I don’t know, acting all secretive. She brought back a bag, asked Han Ting to hold it, said a classmate found a second-hand bag at a great deal, and she and her classmate couldn’t tell if it’s fake, so she asked Han Ting to help verify it." Huang Shiyuan frowned, "But the bag looked quite new to me."

"I also felt it was new, and that bag isn’t cheap; its original price is over twenty thousand." Han Ting added.

Tianmiao paused for a moment, then said, "Don’t bother with her, but try to have less contact in the future. If she brings something for you to try, just refuse."

"Ah? Okay." Han Ting was taken aback, then agreed.

"She always seems odd, and now her dark circles are so heavy, and she seems to have gained some weight. Compared to how she was at the start of the semester, she’s really changed a lot." Huang Shiyuan frowned.
