Chasing Wife in Crematorium: Abandoned Young Master

Chapter 202 Attending the Banquet

Rong Xi frowned, looked at the phone that had been hung up, and sighed inwardly. He knew the purpose of Lin Hao's call, which was nothing more than asking him for some advice and helping him in the business world. Although he was a little reluctant, he thought that they were old classmates after all, and he just needed to distract himself from thinking about the disappointing treasure.

"Okay, let's go to the Beijing Palace for the banquet tonight." Rong Xi said to himself, and then began to organize his thoughts and prepare for the evening party.

Night fell quickly, and the neon lights of Jingdian flashed luxuriously in the night. Rongxi's car stopped steadily at the door of Jingdian. He got out of the car, adjusted his suit, and walked into this magnificent place.

Lin Hao had been waiting in the private room for a long time. When he saw Rong Xi come in, he immediately stood up and greeted him warmly.

"Rong Xi, you are finally here. I have been waiting for you for a long time!" Lin Hao patted Rong Xi's shoulder and said with a smile.

"You guy, you always try to take advantage of me." Rong Xi joked with a smile, and the two of them sat down immediately.

After three rounds of drinks, Lin Hao got to the point: "Rong Xi, you know, I've taken over the family business, but I always feel overwhelmed. Can you give me some advice, or is there any project we can cooperate on?"

Rong Xi put down the wine glass in his hand, thought for a moment, and then said: "In fact, the current market environment is changing very quickly. If you want to gain a foothold, you must continue to innovate. Your Lin family has a deep foundation in traditional industries, but you also need to keep up with the pace of the times."

"That's true, but the market competition is so fierce now that it's difficult for traditional companies like us to transform," Lin Hao sighed.

"Not necessarily." Rong Xi smiled slightly, "You can consider combining new technologies to develop some new products or services. For example, smart home and the Internet of Things are very popular now, and you can try to develop in this direction."

Lin Hao's eyes lit up after hearing this. "This is indeed a good idea! I'll find someone to study it carefully later."

The two chatted for a while, and the atmosphere gradually became relaxed. At this moment, Rongxi's phone suddenly vibrated, and he took it out and saw that it was a text message from an unknown number.

"Mr. Rong, I have some clues about the treasure. Are you still interested?" The message was short and mysterious.

When Rong Xi saw the message, he was moved. He looked up at Lin Hao who was talking to him, and weighed the options in his mind.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Lin Hao noticed that Rong Xi looked a little strange, so he asked.

"It's okay, it's just a spam message." Rong Xi said casually, but at the same time he was wondering about the authenticity of the message.

After dinner, Rong Xi said goodbye to Lin Hao and drove back to his residence. He sat on the sofa and repeatedly checked the text message, his heart full of doubts and expectations.

"Could it be that there are other clues to the treasure?" Rong Xi said to himself. He decided to check the source of the text message himself.

After some twists and turns, Rongxi finally contacted the person who sent the text message.

It turned out that this person was an adventurer. During an expedition, he accidentally discovered some clues related to the treasure, but he did not have enough strength to explore it, so he thought of looking for Rong Xi to cooperate.

After listening to this person's story, Rong Xi felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.

He decided to set out again to look for the real treasure that might exist.

"Actually, I'm curious, how did you know I was looking for that thing?"

"Young Master Rong, you don't have to show up. As soon as Heizi, one of the four great warriors under Uncle Kong, found me, I knew it must be your idea!"

"How to say?"

“You may not know that this legend has been around for a long time and it is not a very big secret. For a long time, everyone thought it was nonsense and no one took it seriously!

But Uncle Kong is not an ordinary person. He sent someone to look for me, which means he has made some progress! "

“What do you do?”

"Me? Watching the mountains and rivers, looking for tombs and stealing treasures!"

"you....."

In fact, Rong Xi is somewhat wary of this kind of gangsters!

Rong Xi stared with wide eyes, looking up and down at this guy who claimed that he could "observe mountains and rivers, find tombs and steal treasures." He was wearing a dark jacket and a pair of wear-resistant hiking boots, with a somewhat unruly and cunning look on his face.

"You...can you really find that treasure?" Rong Xi asked half-doubtfully.

The guy chuckled, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth. "Mr. Rong, what you said is true. If I didn't have some real skills, how could I dare to come to you? The clues to this treasure are not something that ordinary people can get."

Rong Xi frowned, "Then tell me, what clues have you found?"

The man took out a yellowed map from his pocket and spread it on the table. "Look here, this is a treasure map I drew based on some ancient records and the oral accounts of the elderly. It is said that the treasure is hidden in this mountain range. As for the exact location, we have to go and explore it on the spot."

Rong Xi took a closer look. The map was covered with dense symbols and words. It was obviously not something that could be completed in a short time. His doubts were slightly dispelled, but he still remained vigilant.

"Okay, I'll trust you for once. But we have to make three rules. First, all actions must be under my command. Second, after finding the treasure, I have the final say on how to distribute it. Third..." Rong Xi paused, staring at the man sharply, "If you dare to play any tricks, don't blame me for being rude!"

The man waved his hands quickly, "Oh, Young Master Rong, don't worry, I won't play any tricks. I just want to follow you and make a little money. Whatever you say, I won't say no."

Rong Xi nodded, "Okay, get ready and we'll leave as soon as possible."

In fact, Rong Xi had another question, which was why Uncle Kong had looked for him but couldn't find him!

Could I find it this time?

Did he cheat Uncle Kong, or does this guy have other intentions?

Although Rongxi still had doubts in his heart, the temptation of the treasure was too great, so he decided to go. After all, this time with the clues provided by this guy who claimed to be able to "look at mountains and rivers, find tombs and steal treasures", it was better than running around like a headless fly before.

A few days later, everything was ready, and Rong Xi led a group of people on a treasure hunt.

These people are Rong Xi's die-hard bodyguards, so they will naturally not reveal Rong Xi's whereabouts!

In the dim night, a group of people shuttled through the mountains and forests. Rong Xi held a flashlight, his face solemn and determined. They had been searching in the mountains for several days, but still could not find any trace of the treasure.

"Mr. Rong, look here!" a bodyguard suddenly shouted, pointing to a stone slab on the ground with some vague symbols engraved on it.

Rong Xi walked over quickly and squatted down to observe carefully. Those symbols seemed to be an ancient text. He couldn't understand it, but he felt an inexplicable excitement in his heart.

"This might be a clue to the treasure!" Rong Xi stood up and looked around. "Everyone, look around to see if there are any other clues nearby."

Everyone responded and began to search around. In the darkness, only the flashlights were flickering, accompanied by the rapid breathing and footsteps of the crowd.

After a while, the guy who claimed to be able to "observe mountains and rivers, find tombs and steal treasures" ran over with an excited look on his face, "Young Master Rong, I found a small path that looks like it was opened by humans. Maybe it can lead to the location of the treasure!"

Rong Xi's eyes lit up, "Lead the way!"

The group followed the guy and walked along the trail. The night was getting darker and darker, and the wind in the forest was getting more and more shrill. But everyone was getting more and more excited, and they felt that they were getting closer and closer to the treasure.

Finally, they came to a cave. The guy pointed at the cave and said, "Mr. Rong, according to my deduction, the treasure should be hidden in this cave!"

Rong Xi looked at the dark cave, and an inexplicable fear surged in his heart. But he knew that he had come to this point and could not retreat no matter what.

"Let's go in and take a look!" Rong Xi waved his hand and walked into the cave first.

The cave was completely dark, with only the light of the flashlight illuminating the front. Everyone moved forward cautiously, fearing that they would miss any clues.

Suddenly, they came to a spacious cave. On the walls of the cave were carved some ancient totems and words, which looked mysterious and solemn.

"Look! There's a stone door there!" exclaimed a bodyguard.

Rong Xi looked in the direction of his finger and saw a huge stone door deep in the cave with some complicated patterns carved on it.

"This should be the entrance to the treasure!" Rong Xi said excitedly.

They walked cautiously towards the stone door and tried to push it open.

The stone gate is heavy and ancient, as if telling endless years and history.

Everyone worked together and finally pushed the stone door open a crack.

A dazzling light shone through the crack in the door, making it almost impossible for them to open their eyes.

When the stone door was fully opened, they were surprised to find that there was a huge treasure trove inside!

Gold, silver, jewelry, and antique utensils filled the entire space, sparkling with an alluring glow.

"We found it!" Rongxi shouted excitedly.

Everyone cheered and hugged each other to celebrate. After going through countless hardships and dangers, they finally found the legendary treasure!

However, at this moment, the guy who claimed that he could "observe mountains and rivers, search for tombs and steal treasures" suddenly revealed a sly smile.

He pulled out a pistol from his pocket and pointed it at Rongxi.

"Mr. Rong, I'm so sorry, I want this treasure!" he said with a sneer.

Rongxi widened his eyes and looked at him in disbelief, "You...what do you mean?"

"Huh, what do I mean? Do you think I will really share this treasure with you? Don't be silly!" The guy said sarcastically:

"From the beginning, I had no intention of cooperating with you. I just used you to find this treasure!"
