The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 152: Not Taking the Proper Door



When Tang Rao arrived at Biyun, it was already afternoon, and he came alone. Although Zhou Boxiong really wanted to follow, Tang Rao did not let him.

This time, they were going to explore an unknown tomb.

Exploring tombs is much more dangerous than facing flood dragons.

Unexpected events could happen at any moment, Zhou Boxiong had no experience, and Tang Rao did not want to put him at risk.

Even Tang Rao himself could not be certain that he would come out alive.

The hotel chosen by Guan Zhenkong was very nice; at least it looked quite luxurious from the outside.

Tang Rao made a call, and Guan Zhenkong didn't mention the room number, he just came down to meet him.

"Xiao Rao!" Seeing Tang Rao waiting in the lobby, Guan Zhenkong came forward and embraced him.

"Alright, enough, old Guan, what's with the hugging between two grown men, back off, back off." Tang Rao pushed Guan Zhenkong away.

Honestly, he really could not accept the Blue Star custom of hugging.

In the Seventy-two Domains of Nine Realms, only spiritual companions had such close contact.

"Let's go upstairs," Guan Zhenkong didn't mind, smiling and leading the way.

The hotel's top floor contained a huge suite, about two hundred square meters, extremely luxurious.

But Guan Zhenkong was wealthy; he could definitely afford it.

"Come, everyone stop a moment, let me do some introductions," Guan Zhenkong said as he entered the room and clapped his hands.

Tang Rao glanced around the room and saw four other people besides him and Guan Zhenkong.

A chubby guy sitting on a sofa eating chips, round and rotund, dressed in a cool black leather jacket studded with rivets; a handsome guy playing on a computer, tall and clean-cut, wearing glasses; a woman leaning by the window smoking, beautiful and captivating, with a knife scar near her eye; and lastly, a middle-aged man, around forty years old, lean and shrewd, with piercing eyes.

Hearing Guan Zhenkong's words, all four turned to look.

"This is Fei Jiu, I mentioned him to you before," Guan Zhenkong smiled and pointed at the middle-aged man.

Tang Rao nodded towards Fei Jiu.

Fei Jiu also responded with a nod of his head.

"This beautiful woman... you can call her Sister Liu," Guan Zhenkong continued introducing,

"Hello," Tang Rao greeted Sister Liu, simply and straightforwardly, without any superfluity.

Sister Liu wasn't as friendly as Fei Jiu; she flicked her ash, slightly turned, and continued looking out of the window.

"This young handsome guy, just call him Kevin, he's very good with computers," Guan Zhenkong indicated the handsome guy at the computer.

"Hello, Major Tang." Kevin smiled warmly at Tang Rao.

Tang Rao was slightly surprised; Kevin was impressive, even knowing something like this.

However, Kevin's remark made Sister Liu turn around, her cold eyes steadily fixed on Tang Rao.

Then, Sister Liu looked back at Guan Zhenkong.

Major? A military personnel? Why did Guan Zhenkong bring someone like that into the team?

As for Tang Rao, he did not offer any explanation; you all are using fake names, and I didn't ask, did I?

"Tang Rao, I'm the Library!" said the chubby guy from the sofa, coming over with a hand extended, his hands covered in crumbs of chips and some unknown white substance.

"Ah, it seems I needn't introduce him anymore, you all know he is Tang Rao," Guan Zhenkong laughed somewhat awkwardly.

He was helpless regarding these young teammates; they had been working together for some time, but they were never reliable.

"Alright, the rest of the day is free for all, we move at two in the morning," Guan Zhenkong stated directly.

"Tang Rao, fancy a drink at the bar downstairs?" Guan Zhenkong asked Tang Rao.

"I'm coming too!" the Library exclaimed excitedly, "the bar, there will definitely be beauties there, tsk tsk tsk, I need to flirt with a few."

"Let's go." Tang Rao did not refuse.

Three people left the room.

...

"Kevin, what did you find?" Suddenly, Liu Shisan spoke up in the room, asking while smoking a cigarette, his tone cold.

"The Young Master of Huang Dynasty Industries mysteriously became a Major not long ago. As for the department he belongs to, I think you might know: Special Ninth Department." Kevin said with a smile, slightly pushing up his glasses.

Liu Shisan took a harsh drag of his cigarette and remained silent.

Beside them, Fei Jiu's indifferent gaze briefly flashed a sharp spark, appearing and disappearing in an instant.

...

At two in the morning, in the suite, several people sat together, each dressed in black night gear, except for Tang Rao.

Liu Shisan showed clear dissatisfaction towards Tang Rao's "unprofessionalism".

"Leader, can't we remove him?" Liu Shisan pointed at Tang Rao without giving any face.

Guan Zhenkong felt a bit awkward; Liu Shisan was always direct and quick-tempered.

Smoking would calm her down a bit, but only just a bit.

"Sister Liu, Tang Rao is a decent person..." Library chimed in trying to help, having spent the night at a bar with Tang Rao, where the two of them had started to build some friendship.

"Amateur." Liu Shisan snorted and said no more.

Guan Zhenkong staying quiet meant that he intended to bring Tang Rao along.

"Enough talking, let me explain the specific plan." Guan Zhenkong pressed his hand down, "We'll depart from here and then enter the mountains through the north slope of Bo Mountain, remember, we must be fast, ideally reaching the tomb before four o'clock. Bring all necessary equipment, this tomb raid won't be simple, I've already told you beforehand. If anyone wants to back out, this is your last chance."

Everyone was silent.

"This... are we really going up Bo Mountain?" Tang Rao asked somewhat surprised.

"Yes." Guan Zhenkong responded.

Tang Rao: "..."

Just came down and now to go up again, it seems he really was at odds with Bo Mountain.

Of course, Tang Rao had ascended Bo Mountain from the west slope before, and this time they would go from the north slope, which were quite far from each other.

"Let's go." Guan Zhenkong roared softly, then headed straight for the window.

Dressed like that, they obviously couldn't go through the hotel's main entrance, otherwise they might trigger the alarm.

Guan Zhenkong, Fei Jiu, Liu Shisan, Kevin, Library, one by one, they rappelled down from the window.

As for Tang Rao, he looked at the rappelling rope at the window, and then at the room's main door.

"Shit, crazy..." Tang Rao muttered, and swaggered towards the main door.

Open the door, take the elevator, go downstairs.

"Why hasn't Tang Rao come down yet?" Below the hotel, several people were craning their necks looking up, still not seeing Tang Rao descend from the rope.

"Does Tang Rao have acrophobia?" Library said.

"Hmph!" Liu Shisan snorted coldly, it was unclear what she was scoffing at.

"Looking for me?" A faint voice came from beside the group. Under the cover of night, Tang Rao abruptly appeared behind everyone.

Everyone was startled. Liu Shisan reacted the most, violently pulling out a dark gun from her waist.

Startled, Tang Rao immediately raised his hands.

"Tang Rao, you..." Guan Zhenkong was also surprised to see Tang Rao suddenly appear behind them, having clearly not come down from the rope.

"Uh, I took the hotel's main entrance. I really don't get you guys, what's with all this sliding and not getting tired of it?" Tang Rao turned around, pointing to the hotel behind him.
