My fishing raft will ask for help.

Chapter 124 Your in-laws are coming!

Zhou Miao did not take everything with him at once, but filled the fish tank until it was full.

Aside from the jewelry and gold, he only emptied one large chest in the cave, leaving another large chest of items and three chests of silver.

Looking at the time, it's already past 3 a.m.

The rest can only be moved tomorrow.

It's not that he doesn't have enough time, but rather that he can only keep these things in his rented apartment for now.

The building had surveillance cameras installed in both the hallways and the elevator.

Zhou Miao could only use fish boxes as cover to avoid being discovered, so he had to carry out the operation in two or three trips to move everything from the cave to this location.

Then, when your parents arrive, you can buy some foam boxes to pack them up and take them with you.

Back home, Zhou Miao moved the contents of the fish tank into the wardrobe and covered it with a waterproof sheet.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief after closing the cabinet door, but when he was about to take a shower, he thought for a moment, then opened the cabinet door again, took out two boxes of gold and a box of jewelry, and hid them behind the small sofa.

He planned to show these two boxes to his parents first, so he could test their opinions.

The thoughts of parents are always different from those of their sons.

Zhou Miao wasn't sure if his parents would ask him to share some of his treasure with his older sister and brother once they found out he had a large amount of it.

In his view, his father, Zhou Jiguang, was a very enlightened father.

He is also a good man who is devoted to his family and has a strong sense of responsibility.

Their mother, Wang Xiuying, was a typical housewife. Although she wasn't highly educated, she took good care of her three siblings.

Moreover, she favored her youngest son and had some bad habits of traditional Chinese parents, such as expecting older siblings to give way to younger brothers.

This is why Zhou Miao, after deciding to keep these treasures at home, decisively contacted his father and asked him to bring his mother along.

He knew his parents wouldn't covet the treasure he had discovered; his only concern now was that he still had his older sister and brother.

So, from the parents' perspective, what would they think if they learned that their youngest son had discovered a large treasure?

Therefore, the two boxes of gold and the box of jewelry were Zhou Miao's test. Even if his parents asked him to share some with his older siblings, his loss would not be too great.

Humans are contradictory beings. If his older sister and brother were in trouble and needed money in an emergency, Zhou Miao would definitely be willing to help.

When they earn their own money, they are willing to buy expensive gifts for them during holidays and festivals.

But they're not so willing to let them do things for free.

With a soft sigh, suppressing her somewhat conflicted feelings, Zhou Miao changed her clothes, took a shower, and went to bed.

For the next two days, Zhou Miao either fished and fed sea turtles on his own fishing raft or went to Luo Hao's place for a meal and rest.

With beautiful women always by his side, he lived a very comfortable life.

But late at night, he would go to the reservoir and move all the remaining things from the cave to his rented room.

The cave's reward only came after the last piece of silver was taken.

[The Cave's Reward: The Cave thanks you for helping it resolve its blockage. However, after much thought, the Cave couldn't figure out how it could help the host, so it decided to bestow upon the host its strongest ability—concealment—hoping the host would like it.]

Hiding?

What kind of ability is this? Is it similar to invisibility?

Zhou Miao's eyes lit up. Had he gained superpowers?

However, when he opened the system and checked the stealth function, he found that it did not have the ability he wanted.

[Stealth: Reduces one's presence; those on the same side can be affected by this ability.]

Through Zhou Miao's detailed questioning of the system, Zhou Miao suddenly discovered that this concealment function was quite good.

Simply put, activating this ability makes a person feel invisible, and even those around them will be affected.

Like Shino in Naruto, he is always easily overlooked.

If they had the capability to catch mantis shrimp before, then they can catch them with peace of mind.

As long as they activate their abilities when they go out to sea, those around them who are watching them will unconsciously ignore them.

By the time those people came to their senses, Zhou Miao was already on the vast ocean.

Secondly, like when you go to a deserted island, you won't be constantly watched by the illegal people there; they'll subconsciously ignore you.

So Zhou Miao didn't hesitate at all and immediately applied the invisibility ability to himself.

This is an active ability; he can activate it with a thought, without any time limit.

From now on, if Zhou Miao discovers any good fishing information, he will no longer have to worry about someone stealing it.

As for other uses, he needs to explore them gradually.

Back home, Zhou Miao hid the silver, then took a shower and went to sleep without worry.

The next morning, around 8 a.m., he was woken up by a phone call while he was still sleeping.

He thought it was Lu Xiaoxiao calling him for breakfast, but it turned out to be his father calling.

He thought it was Lu Xiaoxiao calling him for breakfast, but it turned out to be his father calling.

"Ah Miao, your mom and I are heading to Nan Town now. We'll probably arrive around noon if we drive. Send me the address and I'll use navigation."

"Okay, if you arrive at noon, I'll treat you to a seafood feast."

"Don't spend too much money. You must have spent a lot of money setting up those fish rafts. Just have something simple for lunch."

Zhou Jiguang came here not only because of the good news Zhou Miao mentioned, but also to see if he was doing well here and if he needed any support.

Although Zhou Miao said she was doing well here and had sent so much seafood home, how could her parents truly feel at ease without seeing it with their own eyes?

"Okay, okay," Zhou Miao replied perfunctorily before hanging up the phone and sending him the address.

He then called the private restaurant he had eaten at before, booked a private room, and asked them to send him a menu.

The menu at this restaurant changes daily, depending on what ingredients are available that day.

After making the arrangements, Zhou Miao stopped sleeping, washed up, and went downstairs. She found that Lu Xiaoxiao was already preparing breakfast, so she took the opportunity to come in and have a free meal.

"Ah Miao, you're up early today. Are you going out to sea?" Lu Xingyu asked him in surprise.

Because I have to supervise the construction, I get up at six o'clock every day to take the workers to the fish rafts for work, and then come back for breakfast.

"No, my parents are coming to visit today and will stay for a couple of days. I'll pick them up at noon and take them out for lunch."

With a loud crash, Lu Xiaoxiao, who was making breakfast in the kitchen, lost her grip on the ladle and smashed it onto the pot lid.

Seeing this, Zhou Miao teased, "Xiaoxiao, don't worry. You're not an ugly daughter-in-law yet. You don't need to meet my parents with the mindset of a daughter-in-law meeting her in-laws. Just relax."

Lu Xingyu's face darkened upon hearing this: "Go to hell with your ugly wife! How is my Xiaoxiao ugly? Besides, we're both against marriage, and there's no way Xiaoxiao would marry you."

"Same here. Whether she's my sister or my daughter-in-law, my parents are my parents-in-law to Xiaoxiao."

Zhou Miao continued joking, but this time a "bang" came from the doorway.

Pei Yunxi stood blankly at the door, staring at him: "You...you and Xiaoxiao..."

"Yunxi is here too? Perfect timing, my parents are coming today, are you meeting your in-laws as well?"

"Go to hell!" x2

Lu Xiaoxiao, feeling both embarrassed and delighted, and Pei Yunxi, whose heart had already turned cold, knew perfectly well that Zhou Miao was joking, and immediately pounced on him in embarrassment and anger.
