She jumped so fast that she almost fell over.
A large hand held her by the waist.
The hand was long and white, like a faceted jade.
Fifth Moon slapped the hand away with a fierce snap, “Don’t take advantage of me.
Without waiting for the owner’s reaction, she closed the car door with a bang and walked away without looking back.
Cesar, who was about to get out of the car after her: “……”
Jobe, the butler who had watched the whole thing and acted as driver: “……”
Ugh.
He had said long ago that their master should exercise more.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t even be able to beat the girl.
Luo Ziqiu took in the scene with growing amazement.
Fei Leng Cui had strict controls on the streets.
In order to protect the environment, vehicles are restricted to a number every day.
Today, only vehicles with licence plate numbers ending in “1” were allowed to travel.
But the number plate of the stretch Lincoln he saw was “9999”.
Such a plate number was already very rare, and it was surprising that he could still travel on a restricted day.
Fifth Moon didn’t notice the two Luo fathers and sons at all, and happily entered the central mall.
“Ziqiu, look.” Luo’s father looked like he had entered the Grand View Garden, “The technology in Fei Leng Cui is really advanced too, Zi Qiu?”
Luo Ziqiu pursed her lips hard, restraining her rippling emotions, “Dad, I saw the Fifth Moon.”
“What?” Luo’s father froze, and then frowned, “Fifth Moon? Why is she here? Did she follow you here?”
“I don’t know.” Luo Ziqiu shook his head, “Besides, she’s riding in a car that’s only available to the nobility over here.”
“Don’t mind her.” Luo’s father waved his hand, “Whatever nobility is over here in Fei Leng Cui will be subject to the control of the Laurent family when the time comes.”
“You only need to prepare for tomorrow’s presentation, nothing else needs to be on your mind.”
Hearing these words, the uneasiness in Luo Ziqiu’s heart did not go away.
He thought about it and did not follow Fifth Moon inside, but took a taxi to the hotel.
**
In the central shopping mall.
“Miss, hello.” The lady at the counter smiled, “May I ask if you are paying by credit card or cash?”
“Swipe card.” Fifth Moon touched her pocket and only fished out a black and gold card.
She was a little confused.
She had obviously brought three cards from international banks, how come she only had this black gold card left?
Fifth Moon finished going through all her pockets and didn’t find a second bank card.
She conceded defeat and handed the black and gold card over.
“Please wait for a moment.” The lady at the counter took it.
There was a “drop” and the POS machine made a sound.
As the lady at the counter handed the card back, a glance revealed the golden Iris logo.
Next to it was a lowercase s.
She couldn’t help but let out a gasp of shock as she looked at Fifth Moon in shock.
For a moment, the eyes were different.
The Laurent Bank’s s-grade black gold card was only available to those in power in the Laurent family and Ying Zigui.
What was this young Oriental girl’s relationship with the Laurent family again?
The lady at the counter sent Fifth Moon out in a trance, deeply convinced that she seemed to have discovered a remarkable secret.
She steadied her heartbeat, secretly took out her mobile phone and called her bestie: “Hey, let me tell you a gossip, it’s the one who is in charge of the Laurent family you know, right? He might ……”
Fifth Moon knew nothing about this.
After she had bought the clothes and sent them back to Fifth Wind and the others, she went around outside before returning to the Laurent castle.
Cesar was sitting on the sofa with his long legs folded.
His figure was perfect like a sculpture.
Even after looking at him many times, Fifth Moon still had to admit that this was indeed a face that could drive many people crazy.
“The happy candy from the venus group.” Cesar pointed to the box of chocolates on the table, “It’s not available outside, it’s a limited edition of ten worldwide, it’s reserved for you.”
Fifth Moon also had a sweet tooth and she walked up, “Huh, you’re so nice today.”
She unwrapped the first wine heart chocolate.
She was about to take out the chocolates inside with joy, when she caught an empty one.
It was an empty packet that had been folded into the shape of a chocolate.
Fifth Moon: “……”
She proceeded to pick up the next one, and upon unwrapping it, there was nothing but air inside.
Fifth Moon looked up slyly at Cesar, “You wouldn’t have eaten it all and then pretended to lie to me like you didn’t, would you?”
Is there such a childish person?”
Xize was holding his tea, and his every move was the style of a famous noble son from the O Continent.
At that, he frowned, “Hmm? Which chocolate factory are they looking for here, with such poor quality control?”
Seeing the young man’s calm and collected look, Fifth Moon a*sumed that the factory had not done a good job of controlling the chocolate, and proceeded to dismantle it.
The empty shells were piled up all over the place.
She unwillingly opened the last chocolate package.
It was empty.
Cesar finally couldn’t hold back and burst out laughing.
“Aaaahhhh!” Fifth Moon was so angry, she lunged over and hammered her fist into him, “Go to hell!”
She thought he had changed his ways, but he still liked to bully her like that!
“Ahem!” Cesar grabbed her hand, “Third cla*s cripple, stop it.”
The young girl was so petite that he easily confined her in his arms with two hands.
An unprecedented closeness.
Cesar’s body tensed again.
Fifth Moon was fierce: “I’ll bite you to death!”
She showed her little tiger teeth and was about to bite down.
But then a dizzy feeling hit her head, and Fifth Moon blacked out and pa*sed out.
Cesar was about to tease the little girl in his arms when he saw that she was unconscious, and his expression changed instantly.
“Yue Yue!” He picked her up and snapped, “Doctor, Jobe, call a doctor!”
**
Fifth Moon had a very long dream.
In the dream she went to a very wonderful place.
The technology there was very advanced, with an air transportation system and all sorts of new weapons.
She was shopping with her kissing master when she met a silly big man who turned out to be the fifth sage emperor of the 22 sages, making her jealous for a long time.
She saw the City of Worlds appear before her eyes again, the central area reduced to rubble.
She also saw her biting her fingertips and using blood to lay down a formation.
In her ears was a cacophony of voices.
“I said, don’t count me out,”
“Third cla*s cripple, what are you doing?!”
“Yue Yue! Yue Yue, stop!”
“Ah!” Fifth Moon suddenly woke up with a start.
She covered her heart and her forehead was covered in sweat.
She looked dazed.
That was not a dream, it was everything she had ever experienced.
She had clearly staked her entire life span to count Ying Zigui.
Why was she still alive and well now?
This did not make sense.
Fifth Moon subconsciously looked down.
He was lying on the edge of her bed, his hair a little dishevelled.
He had always paid attention to his appearance, and rarely did he look like this.
After a moment’s hesitation, Fifth Moon reached out and grabbed a handful of Cesar’s hair.
Ugh, what a shame it wasn’t gold.
“Awake?” The young man’s voice was slightly husky as he lifted his head, “Is there anything wrong with you? ”
His eyes were blue like the sea, deep and distant.
Looking at him like this, tears suddenly fell from Fifth Moon’s eyes, “You lied to me.”
She was aggrieved: “How can you lie to me like that?”
Cesar: “……”
D*mn.
This memory came back at a really good time.
“I just thought you were cute and wanted to tease you.” Cesar was a little overwhelmed as he handed over a piece of paper, “Don’t cry.”
Fifth Moon was still crying, very sad: “Even if I’m cute, that’s no reason for you to lie to me!”
It was also the first time that Cesar had seen her cry like this, and his voice softened, “I’ll apologise to you.”
“Apology is not enough, you have to pay back all the money I gave you.”
“Okay.” Cesar sighed slightly in relief, “A small thing.”
Fifth Moon’s voice was muffled, “I have to eat all the world’s food and you pay for it.”
“Hmm.”
“And I need rare ores, they’re only found in Antarctica, you go dig them up.”
“No problem.”
Whatever Fifth Moon said, he answered it all, without any half-hearted impatience.
“You made a vow, you can’t go back on your word, or you’ll become fat and chubby, and your person will become ugly.”
“No broken promises.”
Fifth Moon rubbed her eyes and changed her face in a second: “Slightly, slightly, slightly, lying to you.”
She was still smart.
Although she was really quite sad.
Cesar: “……”
Fine.
He conceded.
“Very well.” Cesar loosened his collar and smiled, “Next, let’s talk about the real debt.”
Fifth Moon dried her tears and looked at him, “You obviously lied to me, where’s the real debt?”
“Thinking about the twenty-two sages, you also know the power of the sage lovers, right?” Cesar blandly, “To save you, I divided half of my life span with you.”
Fifth Moon froze, “Share a common life?”
Cesar: “Good to know.”
Fifth Moon covered her face.
It was over.
She really did owe a big debt.
This wasn’t a karma that could be broken by just paying back the money.
“How do I pay back the debt?” Fifth Moon looked depressed, “I didn’t ask you to save me.”
“Since you want to pay back the debt so much, why don’t you-” Cesar was not slow, “just give your body to me, I don’t lack anything, I still lack someone to manage the family property.”
This sentence caused Fifth Moon’s heart to have a momentary jerk and her brain to snap: “What did you you you say?”
The young man leaned down and dried the remaining traces of her tears with his fingertips, “I don’t like you, do you think you can really fool me?”
Because he liked her, he was willing to do so.
Whatever she wanted, he gave it to her.
This time it was Fifth Moon’s turn to be at a loss for words, she stammered, “I …… I I I I haven’t been in love a few times yet, you you you ……”
“So, you agree?” Cesar was a little surprised as he thought for a moment, “To get married tomorrow?”
Fifth Moon: “……”
What kind of iron straight man’s brain circuit is this.
How can you go straight to marriage when you haven’t even had a relationship yet?
“Who agreed?” Fifth Moon puffed up, “You said you’re known as ‘Apollo of Fei Leng Cui’, you must have a lot of women, I’m still innocent, no, I’m losing out.”
“Where do I find the time for that?” Cesar choked, “I’m too busy making money, and before I’m done, I’m being stabbed.”
“Yeah oh, well hello there.” Fifth Moon gloated, “Making all that money and not living to spend it.”
Cesar shrugged, “It’s okay, you can have it.”
“Seeing as you’ve been single for so long, then I’ll reluctantly oblige you, the cute teenage girl.” Fifth Moon brushed her head away, “Six months probation.”
Cesar looked puzzled, “…… probationary period?”
“Of course, it’s a boyfriend’s probationary period.” The fifth month counted clearly, “In case you don’t fit, I’ll kick you out and find the next spring ah.”
Cesar’s eyes instantly went dangerous for a few moments, but he smiled, “Don’t even think about it.”
If she dared to kick him, he would build a gold chain and handcuff her to it.
**
This side of China.
In front of the Ji family villa, a sports car with three modes of land, sea and air was parked in the air.
After Ying Ziji and Fu Yunshen got on it, the sports car quickly left.
“I was quite expecting them to come back as four.” Su Wen smiled, “But three is fine, I like all the grandchildren.”
But Lu Yuan frowned, “No, it’s better to have grandchildren. ”
“Huh?” Su Wen was a little surprised, “How come I didn’t realise before that you still favoured boys over girls? If you prefer boys over girls, I’ll take Yoyo away and you can live your life alone.”
“No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Lu Yuan was choked up, “If it’s a grandchild, you’ll be able to abduct someone else, preferably a pretty little girl.”
Su Man thought about it, “That’s true.”
Lu Yuan glanced around, “Where is Feng Mian? How come we didn’t see him today when Yoyo left?”
“Mr. Wen has also gone to G.” Su Wen said, “You know, the experimental project of a cosmic carrier is something that Yao Yao has been pursuing, and Mr. Wen will definitely give his full support.”
Sixty percent of the Ji family’s researchers were involved in this project.
A true researcher would never forget his original heart and move forward even if there were more thorns in the road ahead.
It was also because the Kee Family had sent its stalwarts to support Helvin and Dean Norman, causing several scientific research families from other countries to mock for a long time.
To put it bluntly, the Cosmic Carrier Experiment Project was established two years ago, and it is still just an empty shell on paper.
Perhaps it could be researched in the future, but who knew if it was hundreds of years away?
“Hmm.” Lu Yuan wrinkled his eyebrows, “I can’t be of much help in this aspect of technology, if the cosmic carrier is successfully built by then, I can apply for an escort.”
Let alone other universes.
Even outside the solar system, there were wonderful cosmic creatures.
The Institute had once sent astronauts who had encountered a jellyfish-like cosmic creature during their flight and almost got swept into a black hole.
Suwen thought seriously for a moment, “Abyss, wake up, you shouldn’t be able to fight it.”
Lu Yuan: “……”
Nothing could be more solid than that.
Other side.
“Xiao Li, school has started, Yao Yao and Mr. Fu have gone on their honeymoon, and dad is busy experimenting, you’re still staying at school.” Ji Yihang said as he put on his clothes, “If the school food doesn’t suit your taste, you can tell your mother to make you braised pork ribs and send them over.”
Ji Li picked up her school bag, “Got it.”
Although Ying Ziji didn’t have any blood ties to the Ji family, they all treated her as if she was a real family member too.
“Oh, right.” Ji Yihang spoke up as if remembering something, “Look, Yeyao is married and you don’t have a boyfriend yet, how bad is that, when are you going to bring one back?”
“Dad, how old am I?” Ji Li was helpless, “You can’t compare me to Ying Shen, and I don’t have time to fall in love.”
“Ugh, dad is just reminding you.” Ji Yihang went out, “I let you fall in love in high school, but you didn’t, and you’re going to be a soph*more here, and you still haven’t.”
“Early love is equal to early practice, how can you grow if you don’t practice?”
Ji Li: “……”
Her dad was too open-minded, resulting in her being speechless.
Ji Li rode her bike to the Imperial University.
She didn’t have cla*ses in the morning and the first two periods in the afternoon, so she had a leisurely day.
There was a regular cla*sroom for the biochemistry lab cla*s and Ji Li walked in and put her bag down.
She didn’t look at the other people in the cla*sroom either, and took out her iPad to start organising her notes.
“Ji Li, didn’t you still say that you and Ying Zigui knew each other?” A voice rang out with a bit of sarcasm, “How come she didn’t think of giving you a chance to go to G? Or is it just you bragging?”
Ji Li didn’t say anything.
Last month, Ying Ziji had mentioned it to her, telling her to go if she wanted to.
But she felt that she wasn’t strong enough at the moment and was going to finish the semester before going there.
She hadn’t advertised her relationship with Ying Zigui either.
“Ji Li, you’re being asked.” The owner of the voice walked in, “Aren’t you a genius girl? I saw that the school sent students there and your name wasn’t there, why aren’t you arrogant anymore?”
Someone dissuaded, “Ningzhi, stop it, none of us in the biochemistry department have been chosen either.”
“I’m going to say it.” Zhen Ningzhi sneered, “Who knows how she got into this cla*s then, obviously the biochemistry experimental cla*s is not open to freshmen at all, how did she get in during her freshman year?!”
Ji Li didn’t bother arguing with Zhen Ningzhi.
She was just not used to her.
She was a year older than her.
However, when Zhen Ningzhi’s year was tested for the biochemistry experimental cla*s, Zhen Ningzhi did not pa*s, just missing out by one place.
However, Zhen Ningzhi was very well liked and would sometimes come to the biochemistry lab cla*s to borrow notes.
Ji Li did not care.
The first place in the whole school and the national scholarship were in her hands, so what could Zhen Ningzhi do if she didn’t like her?
Zhen Ningzhi snorted: “Since you can’t go, don’t be so arrogant in the future, understand?”
Ji Li finally lifted her head.
“Excuse me.” A knock on the door sounded at that moment, the teenager’s voice was clear and cold, “May I ask if Ji Li is here?”
