Chapter 140: Visiting the Tang Family
Liu Yi leaned against the window and looked outside, his face full of curiosity. At this time, Tang Jie had fallen asleep unconsciously, and a passenger sitting opposite Liu Yi saw that Liu Yi was so curious, only as if he was a traveler visiting the imperial capital for the first time.
"That one was a mecha just now, responsible for keeping the pipeline safe." The passenger said to Liu Yi.
Hearing this, Liu Yi suddenly said: "It turned out to be a mecha!" Why do mechs guard at such a high altitude? ”
"Don't you know? A few months ago, someone carried out a terrorist attack and wanted to blow up the elevator pipeline, so a mecha was sent to protect the safety of the pipeline. ”
"There is also such a terrorist attack in the imperial capital?" Liu Yi was taken aback.
In Liu Yi's impression, the imperial capital was very well defended, but he didn't expect that there would be people here who dared to carry out terrorist attacks now.
The passenger sighed and said, "It's different now, since the rebels attacked the imperial capital on a large scale, the imperial capital is not as safe as before. ”
Liu Yi didn't speak again, thinking back to the changes in the current situation in recent years, the current Xinghan Empire is indeed much worse than before, giving people a crumbling feeling.
If you go back to a few decades ago, who would have thought that someone would dare to blatantly attack the imperial capital, and if you say it, you are afraid that you will be regarded as a mental patient.
The elevator cabin quickly reached the surface, and the whole journey took just over twenty minutes.
Liu Yi and Tang Jie walked out of the hall with the flow of people, and they saw seven or eight tall and burly people wearing green work uniforms, with a logo made by Star Alliance printed on the left chest of their work clothes.
"Miss!" The person sent by the Star Alliance said respectfully as soon as he saw Tang Jie.
Tang Jie nodded, changed to a very dignified tone and said, "Here, where is the car?" ”
"It's coming soon."
As soon as the words fell, several luxurious vehicles had already driven in front of everyone, and one person opened the car door cleanly and made a gesture of please.
Tang Jie didn't say a word, stepped into the car, Liu Yi saw that Tang Jie seemed to be a different person, completely becoming a high-ranking daughter, completely different from the usual person who likes to joke and is lively and active.
Such a change made Liu Yi a little uncomfortable for a while, and he was stunned and didn't know which car to get into.
Tang Jie, who was already sitting in the car, glanced at Liu Yi and said in an unquestionable tone: "What are you still doing in a daze?" Don't get in the car yet! ”
When Liu Yi heard this, he hurriedly stepped into Tang Jie's car, and the people around him immediately threw an indifferent look at Liu Yi.
"What kind of majesty? Big companies are great, and they don't belong to you! Liu Yi scolded in his heart.
The car door "snapped" shut, and before Liu Yi's butt sat down, the car had already rushed out and threw Liu Yi directly into the seat.
Fortunately, this is a very high-end car, not only the seat is very comfortable, but also there are cushions everywhere to prevent collisions, although Liu Yi was quite embarrassed, but he was not injured.
"Can't drive!" Liu Yi scolded angrily.
Tang Jie couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw Liu Yi's appearance: "Haha, your current appearance is so funny!" ”
"You can still laugh? Don't you see that they are deliberately manipulating me? ”
"I can see it, but it's really funny how you look now!"
"Heartless, heartless!"
"Alright, it's a little thing to be angry about." Tang Jie said and glanced at Liu Yi.
Liu Yi was too lazy to bother to speak, and began to look around at the decoration in the car, I have to say that the Tang family is really not ordinary rich, the decoration in the car is extremely gorgeous, it is like a mobile living room, not only has all kinds of exquisite food, drinks, and even all kinds of entertainment.
"Have you ever lived like this before?" Liu Yi asked.
Tang Jie nodded and said, "Yes, I have lived like this all my life. ”
"Then why do you have to go all the way to Yaqiu, what others can't get in their lifetime, you already have it now."
"Rich is rich, and the pursuit should still be there." Tang Jie smiled and said, "Mecha is my interest, work for my interest, even if I go to Yaqiu, I am willing." Besides, I don't like the imperial capital very much. ”
When Liu Yi heard this, he subconsciously looked at the street scene flying by outside the window.
Outside the window, the world is bustling with skyscrapers, the streets are full of dazzling vehicles, and the colorful lights are brighter than the stars in the sky.
This is the largest and most prosperous urban agglomeration in the entire human world, and it is also the core human gathering place of Tianhanxing, just like its name - Fanjing.
For the people of the Xinghan Empire, being able to live here was like a dream, however, Tang Jie said that he didn't like this place.
"Why? Why not like this place? Liu Yi asked curiously.
When asking this question, Liu Yi unconsciously remembered his former self, when he was studying here, dreaming of a place here in the future. Being able to live in the imperial capital was Liu Yi's greatest wish at that time, and as for other things, Liu Yi basically didn't think about it.
Tang Jie replied lightly: "No, it's just that I'm tired of staying here." ”
After speaking, Tang Jie turned his face to the window, as if he was unwilling to continue the topic.
The speeding car made its way through the bustling streets and finally stopped in front of a black building.
The people of Starlink opened the car door and said to Tang Jie, "Miss, it's here." ”
Walking into the building, taking the high-speed elevator, Liu Yi and Tang Jie went all the way to the top floor.
Tang Jie instructed Liu Yi in the elevator: "My grandfather and my parents are here today, and they all want to see you." ”
Liu Yi felt a little awkward in his heart, and said secretly: "How does it feel like meeting your parents before getting married, this feels really awkward." ”
Just thinking about it, I listened to "Ding! The elevator has reached the top floor.
As soon as the elevator doors opened, the first thing that came into view was a beautiful and huge picture of a superb view of greenery, from an unknown planet.
Although Liu Yi did not study art, there were not many painters in this era, so many paintings were antiques handed down from the past, and being able to have such a huge painting is enough to show how rich the Tang family is.
Tang Jie led Liu Yi out of the elevator, all the way around the wall where the scroll was hung, and came to a very spacious hall.
The decoration of the hall does not look ostentatious, the soft lighting makes people feel warm and cozy, and the walls of the hall are hung with various paintings of various sizes, as if you have arrived in a museum.
"Looks like the family likes to collect paintings, these are probably antiques, right?" Liu Yi smacked his tongue secretly.
At this moment, a middle-aged man flashed out of nowhere, his gray hair was combed very neatly, and he looked neat and neat, reminding people of the old gentlemen in the movie.
"Miss, you're back!" The middle-aged man shouted happily as soon as he saw Tang Jie.
When Tang Jie saw the middle-aged man, he jumped up excitedly and shouted, "It's Fu Bo!" That's great! With that, Tang Jie threw himself into the arms of the middle-aged man like a child.
"Miss, you're back, the old man is about to kill you!" The middle-aged man patted Tang Jie's back affectionately and said.
Liu Yi, who was standing on the side, looked very embarrassed, as if he had become a superfluous person, and finally waited for Tang Jie to break away from the arms of the middle-aged man, so he pulled Liu Yi and said to the middle-aged man: "Fu Bo, let me introduce you, he is Liu Yi!" ”
Liu Yi stretched out his right hand to Fu Bo and said with a smile: "Hello Fu Bo! ”
Fu Bo didn't stretch out his hand, but bowed to Liu Yi, and said in his mouth: "I am Old Man Tang's housekeeper, and Mr. Liu can tell me directly if he needs anything." ”
"This ......" Liu Yi retracted his right hand in embarrassment and looked at Tang Jie next to him.
Tang Jie barely squeezed out a smile on his face, and his expression was full of apologies.
Liu Yi suddenly understood in his heart, and said secretly: "This housekeeper deliberately embarrassed me, it seems that it is not easy to repair the relationship with the Tang family this time and persuade them." ”
The attitude of the housekeeper Fu Bo made Liu Yi a little unable to get off the stage, Tang Jie hurriedly played a round and said, "Fu Bo, where are my parents?" Take me to them! ”
Fu Bo nodded and said to Tang Jie: "Mr. and Mrs. are in the small reception room, they have been waiting for a long time, let's go over now." ”
After speaking, Fu Bo led Tang Jie and Liu Yi into a long corridor, until they came to a wooden door that looked quite ancient but was very gorgeous, gently pushed the door open with his hand, and made a gesture to invite in.
Liu Yixin said: "There are still wooden doors in these years, it seems that the Tang family really likes antiques, and even the doors are made of antiques." ”
After entering the door, the housekeeper Fu Bo did not follow, and Tang Jie still walked forward with Liu Yi, turning several corners, and then came to a living room that was not very large.
"Daddy, Mommy! I'm back! Tang Jie suddenly shouted, no longer caring about Liu Yi, and rushed forward.
Liu Yi only noticed at this time that there was a pair of men and women waiting in front of him, the man looked to be in his thirties, with short black hair that looked energetic and young, and he also looked talented, belonging to the kind of face that was very pleasing to women.
The woman looked younger, no more than thirty years old, and was dressed simply and elegantly, the typical of a lady. This woman's appearance is very similar to Tang Jie, but her temperament is more mature and stable, if she hadn't heard Tang Jie call her parents, Liu Yi would probably think that this was Tang Jie's sister.
At this time, Tang Jie and her parents were already hugging each other, shushing and asking for warmth, and they seemed to have endless words to say to each other, completely leaving Liu Yi, an outsider, aside.
When Liu Yi saw this scene, he didn't feel that the other party was rude, but instead gave birth to a kind of envy. Liu Yi unconsciously remembered his deceased parents, and thought: "If my parents were still alive at this time, what would it be like?" ”
