Chapter 81 - 81 Missing
81 Missing
The two of them finally fell on the carpet, one grabbing the other’s head while one grabbing the other’s arm, twisting each other as if they wanted to strangle each other to death, Tang Susu had no choice but to “wake up” and let out a soft groan.
The two of them immediately bounced up from the ground. “Susu, how are you?!”
“I slept so comfortably…”
“…”
Tang Susu stretched lazily. She noticed the dark circles under their eyes and narrowed her eyes. “Didn’t any of you have a good rest these few days? ”
The two of them shook their heads in unison. “We slept all night as soon as we came back. So, we had two game sessions last night.”
Tang Susu didn’t believe a single word and was about to get off the bed.
“Careful. You’ve slept for a few days and your bones are soft.” Tang Mingqi squatted down and helped her put on a pair of snow-white wool sandals.
Tang Mingchu followed her closely and put a soft knitted jacket on her. It was as if the two of them were busy fighting for her favor.
Seeing that they were still fighting over her, Tang Susu couldn’t stand it anymore and hurried out.
As soon as she opened the door, she ran into her parents and eldest brother.
The three of them came over with medicine and food. When they saw she was awake, they immediately pushed her inside. “Why are you up already? Go back in and rest for a little more!”
After attending to her, Mr. Tang stayed behind and said earnestly, “Susu…”
Tang Susu leaned against the bed and sat up nervously. “Dad, just tell me what you have to say.”
Mr. Tang stammered, his old face blushing. “Next time… Cough, if there was a next time, we could… We could have put on the Invisibility Talismans and quietly left them all behind. Forget about all of them!”
Tang Susu looked at him in shock. She had expected her family to say something similar to her, but she didn’t expect Mr. Tang to be the first one to say it!
Father Tang’s eyes avoided her gaze as if he was embarrassed, but he continued firmly. “Regardless, you can’t be so reckless anymore. You’re always the most important person to us in this world. We can’t have anything happen to you!”
“Besides, the world has changed. People’s hearts are no longer what they used to be. Who knows what kind of people we’re saving? “Mr. Tang’s eyes darkened at the thought of Ying Chengya.
That was the child of a friend who he had watched growing up with his own eyes. She could manipulate everyone so easily. She did not even apologize and secretly ran away when everyone was not keeping an eye on her…
In the afternoon, Tang Susu was finally allowed to step on the ground. She was then mysteriously brought to an underground storage by her brothers.
They pushed the door open, and she instantly saw the banknotes and jewelry that filled up more than half of the storage.
Tang Susu took a deep breath. She had never seen so much money in her entire life. She was almost blinded by it!
“Is this the reason you all look so tired?”
Tang Susu was pleasantly surprised, but she was also angry and distressed. “You’re already quite tired from going out to save those people for two days straight. Why didn’t you rest after you came back? You even went out to search for so many valuables. What about your life?”
When Tang Mingzhou saw her face was red from anger, he quickly patted her head to comfort her.
“It’s not a big deal. The bank has a special central vault hidden in a secret place, which stores a lot of valuables. Usually, it’s transferred from one vault to another across the banks’ major branches. We simply emptied the vault, and it’s not tiring at all!
In fact, if she had not woken up, they would have prepared even more things for her.
“You guys should rest too.” Tang Susu grinned and threatened them. “If you guys don’t rest in the future, I won’t rest either!”
The three of them were speechless.
After they nodded, Tang Susu excitedly put all the money into the system.
008 suddenly floated up. After a while, a number popped out as if it was drunken.
‘Your account has been finalized. The total amount of wealth you have accrued is… 1.29 billion. After deducting your debt, you have 980 million remaining.’
Tang Susu then said without hesitation, “I want to buy an interstellar artificial limb! The one that costs 300 million!”
The best for her brother, of course!
‘Purchase complete. Installation manual is attached.’
With her wish fulfilled, Tang Susu dragged her brother up.
She ran into You Cheng and the soldiers, as well as the other rescuers, and even their family members. They were all carrying things to visit her…
Tang Susu had no choice but to hand the artificial limb over to her brother and let him deal with it himself.
As it was a super high-tech interstellar equipment, the installation process should be relatively simple and not painful.
Tang Mingzhou left with it in confusion.
You Cheng walked over and sized Tang Susu up, his eyes burning with concern.
“Are… Are you feeling any better?”
He had seen her for three days, and no one had become more anxious than him.
The strange thoughts that he couldn’t understand before had become clear in the days of anticipation and disappointment.
His heart was throbbing faster as he waited for Tang Susu’s bright eyes to fall on him.
Suddenly, someone barged in.
“Haha! It’s all thanks to you. Otherwise, I would have died in great shame!”
The bearded soldier was very big and tall, and he directly blocked You Cheng’s direct line-of-sight while also attracting all of Tang Susu’s attention.
You Cheng mumbled, “… is it too late to send him back?”
Luo Feng patted his shoulder and said sympathetically, “There’s still a long way to go!”
The group of soldiers brought a lot of things to thank the Tang family.
From food to fuel, to military bulletproof cars, there was even a helicopter parked on the roof of their building. He had asked You Cheng and found out that the Tang family didn’t have a helicopter, so he had one issued for them and he was even prepared to teach them.
Tang Susu immediately showed a strong interest. After greeting the others, she asked Luo Feng for advice on the spot.
Luo Feng was surprised for a moment. He had thought that he was going to teach one of the three Tang brothers, but he did not expect the youngest daughter to be so enthusiastic.
This kind of thirst for knowledge and her superb learning ability made You Cheng, who had been praised by her second uncle many times, felt shocked.
The others suddenly understood why this delicate-looking girl was so strong and brave.
Because she had the skills to back them up!
While they were explaining the theoretical knowledge that non-professionals would have a hard time listening to, the Tang family was taking care of the others.
In the beginning, everyone was a little tense, but slowly, they were touched by the harmonious atmosphere of the Tang family and gradually relaxed.
“These are some materials that we collected from the outside in the past two days. It’s not much, but it’s still a gift. You must accept it!”
“Yeah, if it wasn’t for your family bringing weapons and leading us in and out, we wouldn’t have survived.”
The members of the Tang family looked at each other and accepted the gifts with a smile.
After this battle, they had all established a principle. The book must be balanced. If others were treating them well, they would treat them well too. If others did not want to offer them anything, then there was no need for them to be so generous either!
However, they still turned around and used all the ingredients that these people had given them and made them into delicious food. They filled the large table with dozens of dishes and they invited everyone to have dinner together.
“Come on, everyone! Sit down. Eat to your heart’s content!”
Tang Susu had no choice but to stop asking questions and pour a cup of herbal tea for Luo Feng.
“Luo Feng, are you feeling a little hot? Do you want me to add an ice cube or two into the tea?”
“Ah, sure!” After she turned around, Luo Feng couldn’t help but wipe the cold sweat on his forehead. He whispered to You Cheng, “This girl is too scary!
If she continued to ask him questions, he would have nothing left to teach her. She might even stump him with her questions!
When Tang Susu took the ice cube, she suddenly thought of the T3 crystal core. She rummaged through her system backpack and found no trace of it. Only then did she remember she had put it in her pocket.
Since she had already changed into fresh clothes, she looked for her mother and asked, “… Did you see it?”
Mrs. Tang was confused and said, “No, there’s nothing in your pocket. Is it something important?”
Tang Susu’s expression changed slightly.
