Chapter 18: Misfortune

The sound of the key opening the door is like an urge.

In an instant, Chen Xu had no master, his mind was empty, he forgot everything, forgot the roses and diamond rings prepared in advance, just jumped off the wall in a hurry, and got under the bed with a hook.

He drilled so urgently that his head thumped against the bed barricade with a dull thud. This sound...... Chen Xu's eyes straightened, and the whole person stiffened.

On the other side of the door, Zhou Zifan came back, her face was flushed, and the whole person looked like she had only exercised vigorously. But thankfully, there was no influx of doormen behind her, and no one else. At this moment, she just walked in normally.

Same style as she always does. After Zhou Zifan entered the house, he immediately began to kick his shoes away, and then walked to the side of the bed with a pair of feet in stockings, looking for slippers.

This action made Chen Xu's eyes jump out of his sockets, for no other reason, Zhou Zifan hooked his head like this, damn it, didn't he want to see a man hiding under the bed?

What to do!

At the thrilling moment, Chen Xu's mind was empty, he gritted his teeth vigorously, and quietly, pushed the pair of beautiful slippers to Zhou Zifan's hand.

Well, Zhou Zifan's fingers touched the slippers.

She seemed a little surprised.

Her movements paused.

She let out an inexplicable snort, with a smile.

Her feet were in slippers.

Call!

Immediately, Chen Xu swore and promised in his heart. Sweat was already dripping down his forehead.

The most critical moment has finally passed perfunctorily.

For such a result, of course Chen Xu is satisfied, he wants to thank God, thank the gods and Buddhas who pass by all over the sky. That's right, that's right!

At this time, Zhou Zifan stood up, she took two steps, went to the water dispenser and poured herself a glass of water, and then returned to the bed and sat down.

She's drinking water.

Take small sips.

While drinking water, a pair of skinny feet with slippers swayed mischievously in front of Chen Xu.

So Chen Xu was frightened to see that a slipper was about to fall off the surface of his feet and fall to the ground. It's thrilling.

In order not to make Zhou Zifan hook his head to find shoes again, Chen Xu immediately fought and stretched out a finger nervously.

Well, the tip of the nail hung on the soles of the shoes, and the slipper, with the swaying, finally obediently put on its rightful place. What a memorable moment. Chen Xu felt that if he could pass the test today, he should bathe and worship the Buddha, at least for a week.

Very good, Zhou Zifan finally got out of bed, she stood up, but unfortunately, she just put the water cup on the bedside table, and then ...... Unexpectedly, he sat back on the bed with a heavy butt.

This time she sat so heavily that the dust gargled down and fell into Chen Xu's mouth and nose.

Of course, Chen Xu wanted to sneeze.

But - he didn't dare.

His face turned red and he held back.

Zhou Zifan probably won't know in her life that she almost suffocated a man unconsciously.

After all, Chen Xu didn't dare to breathe at this time, he was afraid that even if it was just a slight breath, his nose would no longer be able to hold back, and a sneeze would be exaggerated.

Fortunately, the savior has finally come. It was a phone call that rescued Chen Xu's predicament, Zhou Zifan answered the phone, and said, Jin Yan, what are you doing?

What Jin Yan said, Chen Xu couldn't hear it, but Zhou Zifan stood up, she held the phone, walked back and forth in the room, and then said, Okay, I'll come right away.

This sentence is tantamount to the best reward for Chen Xu. It gave him the greatest motivation to hold back and not breathe.

He saw that Zhou Zifan hurriedly changed his shoes. I took some cash from my bag and walked away. Under her pull shut, there was a loud bang, which was so wonderful.

But what made Chen Xu cheer and shout from the bottom of his heart was that when he coughed with a muffled mouth and came out from under the bed, he found that there was an extra satchel on the bed.

This bag, this time Zhou Zifan did not take it with him.

ID card – it should be inside.

Chen Xu raised his hand again, covering the laughter that was about to burst into laughter.

This posture of covering his mouth is too sissy, Chen Xu is a little embarrassed, and he admits that this action is too unmanly. But apart from snickering like this, he really couldn't find any way to hide his excitement at the moment.

Next, Chen Xu, whose eyes were bright, immediately took action, he cautiously reached out and slowly opened the bag on the bed, the movement was so gentle, and then, a wallet, jumped into his eye socket.

In the bag, will I have an ID card?

Chen Xu didn't know, he opened his wallet.

Immediately, a rectangular card with a one-inch photo of Zhou Zifan on it fell into Chen Xu's eyes.

That's it.

A clue that represents another place of wealth.

Got it.

Chen Xu gasped and took out his documents, and he stared at the home address on it, as if Grande had seen a gold coin.

This treasure must be of astonishing value! Chen Xu stood up. Soon put the documents and wallet back in the same place, and finally he stood in the middle of the room, smiled excitedly, opened the door and walked out.

After going out, his back was straight and calm, like a soldier going to the battlefield.

"I will go here and turn back without returning...... I would like to encourage myself with this sentence!"

He silently cheered himself up in the bottom of his heart, and when he stepped forward, he walked out of the corridor, at this moment there were no clouds, the sun was shining, Chen Xu was shining under the scorching sun, and he was full of energy.

Right now. All the clues point to where the second treasure should be discovered. As a result, Chen Xu's next move has actually been made clear - he needs to go to Zhou Zifan's hometown immediately.

Magou in East Ertou Village.

Chen Xu had been to that place once, and that was three years ago when he went on a spring outing with his classmates, and he knew very little. But the general impression is still there.

He had to go.

So, in what capacity?

Chen Xu walked silently, for this question, he needed to think, and think about it for a long time.

The next morning, Chen Xu got up.

This time, he got up from his home in the city.

After getting up, he cleaned himself up in a few clicks, put on his satchel, and went out.

Today, as an investor, he wants to go to Magouli in Dongertou Village.

In this day and age, an ordinary citizen will certainly not be welcome to visit a mountainous area. But what if you go as an investor?

That would be very different.

If you think about it with your ass, you can know that the local village leaders will definitely welcome it warmly.

For the local village cadres, it doesn't really matter what you invest, the key is that someone is willing to invest, as long as there is real money, then everything is easy to say.

Therefore, Chen Xu chose this identity, and after he got out, he was not in a hurry to go to the bus station. He wants to make himself look like at least a successful person in appearance.

So, Chen Xu beckoned to take a taxi and went directly to the commercial street.

On this street, as long as you are willing to spend money, even if you want to dress up as Blanc Malone, that's fine, the stylist says it's completely stress-free.

So Chen Xu got out of the car and raised his eyebrows
