Reborn and Counterattack: The CEO's Powerful Sweetheart

Chapter 1266: Chapter 1265: The Little Boss Wants Him to Shut Up

Gulas lowered his head respectfully. He didn’t let that one compliment from the little boss Han Shang make him lose his cool; he kept his role firmly in mind and didn’t dare let a single mistake slip.

Gulas answered seriously, saying, ”Little Boss, if we keep walking for about five more minutes, we’ll reach the area of the Yin Yang Formation.”

He’d thoroughly studied the map, even directly calculated the distance. If he wasn’t wrong, then following this route straight ahead for five minutes would bring them right to their destination.

”Oh?” Han Shang raised his tone slightly, a bit amused, and glanced at Gulas. ”You can even calculate that?”

”Yes, Little Boss!” Gulas smoothly picked up the map behind him, spread it open, and said, ”This is the Ancient Tomb map I drew. If it’s correct, we are right here now.”

Gulas was also a drawing prodigy; he had very deft hands, and the map he’d drawn was vivid and lifelike.

It was nothing more than an outline of a map, but it felt quite real.

Han Shang stepped forward and began studying the map, looking rather interested.

Gu Tong couldn’t help but glance at Xia Xi beside her, her eyes seeming to say, ”Look at him, then look at you!”

Xia Xi glared back, her expression clearly saying, ”They’ve got a whole crowd, we’ve only got two people.”

Gu Tong rolled her eyes. If this idiot hadn’t hidden the land deed, they wouldn’t have to be afraid of them having more people.

Of course, Gu Tong didn’t say any of that out loud. She followed the map with her eyes, and in that instant, frowned slightly. ”This is an inverted jia-shaped tomb layout!”

Her voice wasn’t loud or soft, but Gulas could hear it clearly.

Gulas grew a bit excited. ”Miss Xue Tong, you recognize the jia-shaped tomb layout?”

”I wouldn’t go as far as ’recognize’!” Gu Tong pressed her lips together, not keeping it to herself, and said, ”I once read about cemetery planning in a book. The jia-shaped cemetery is one type—you can treat it as a surface configuration plan. The vertical stroke in the jia character has its bottom end as the entrance, and the tian character is the main tomb. If we go by that, then where we are now is the middle section of the vertical stroke, and we’re about to enter the tian-shaped area!”

”Oh, my god...” Gulas looked delighted and practically rushed over at once. ”Miss Xue Tong, our thinking is really similar...”

Gulas had never met such a clever woman before, and this knowledgeable too—she could understand the layout in the map with just a few words. It was downright impressive.

”You flatter me.” Gu Tong pressed her lips together and said, ”I just happened to have read about it.”

That wasn’t a lie.

No matter how knowledgeable Gu Tong was, there was no way she could master everything, much less be proficient in all of it.

What she knew about Ancient Tombs came from missions she’d done with Han Shang before; she’d carefully looked things up in the records, so she had some understanding.

”Miss Xue Tong, you’re far too modest, you...” Gulas still wanted to say more.

Han Shang was getting a bit impatient. He cut Gulas a look and said, ”Gulas, you talk too much.”

Gulas: ”...” So the Little Boss is telling him to shut up...

Gulas knew his limits. He coughed once, then promptly clamped his mouth shut, not mentioning Xue Tong again. Instead, he switched topics. ”Dear Little Boss, can we set off now?”

Han Shang gave a casual ”Mm,” which counted as agreeing to Gulas’s suggestion.

With the Little Boss having spoken, not one of Sicuro’s people dared voice a single doubt.

The group marched forward in a mighty procession, heading straight for the area of the Yin Yang Formation!
