157. Dinner gifts
"What do you think? I'm just asking. Xia Xihe was really just asking, but Le Zhixuan's words made her think of something at once.
At one point she did fantasize about going past the Anomalies and getting close to him. Later, after learning that he was engaged to Angela, her idea disappeared. Even since then, she has not taken the initiative to contact Major General Inlo, even if she sometimes looks at his communication number in a daze, she will not say a word to him, let alone go to his special army, to see that he and Angela are in love.
"Uh......" Le Zhixuan felt that Xue Xue and Xiaoyu invariably pulled the corners of the clothes behind her, and when she thought of something, she suddenly looked stupid.
"Inside...... Internal Ability Army or something, you go on and say Ah Team Liu. Xue Xue smiled.
Xia Xihe noticed the small movements of several people, and couldn't help but smile, she knew that everyone was protecting her, but it was over, and she would bury those thoughts in her heart. The group of partners in front of her who gave their lives for her are what she should cherish and protect now!
"Ahem." Liu Ziyan coughed lightly a few times and said, "The Abnormal Ability Army is mostly a combination of single or double soldiers, but there are exceptions. Therefore, each Alien Soldier has a strong ability to take charge of its own situation, and they are not only familiar with various combat equipment such as mecha and aircraft carriers, but also use and control it as well as professionals! But their biggest weapon is not this, but the armor, like Angela's boots, which is only a part of the armor. Speaking of which, you can imagine how powerful an Ability can be when it has a full set of Warframes! ”
"However, unlike the mecha army and the aircraft carrier army, the soldiers of the Alien Army need to perform tasks non-stop, these tasks are extremely difficult, a large number of enemy intelligence, space metal mines, life star field exploration and other tasks, all of which are carried out by the Alien Army, which is exciting at the same time, there is also great danger to life."
Angela's Combat Boots...... It was given to her by Major General Inlo, right? Xia Xihe thought sullenly.
"So, the Ability Army is the hardest of the three branches to enter." Liu Ziyan concluded.
Luo Qing nodded in agreement.
"In this way, I think the aircraft carrier force will be more suitable for us, and we can still fight side by side, what do you think?" Xia Xihe smiled and looked at a few partners beside her, in fact, from her previous gaze, she had already felt everyone's choice, so this is the best choice, right?
"I also think the aircraft carrier force is good!" Le Zhixuan was the first to echo.
"I agree! I'll follow you in the future! "The development space of the aircraft carrier force will be larger than that of the other two places, and the ability army will ...... Snow is not suitable.
Han Yu nodded, she didn't have any abilities, and it was estimated that she might not even be able to pass the assessment if she went to the Ability Army.
"It's all about Xinxin, if you want to go to the Alien Army, you can go, don't take care of us, we will definitely support you, but if you fail the assessment and can't get in, our aircraft carrier force team still welcomes you." Xia Xihe said with a smile.
"I'll follow you." Cen Xinxin did not hesitate to abandon the Ability Army.
"So righteous! Good! Xia Xihe was slightly surprised, and made a decision, "Then it's decided!" Let's go to the aircraft carrier force together! ”
Seeing Xia Xihe and the others chatting so enthusiastically and happily, Le Yurong and Hua Zhi, who were ignored on the side, were even more uncomfortable, and of course there was something even more uncomfortable, that is, Ji Xiran, she had been disgusted by everyone in their team except Su Yihang, and the situation was even more embarrassing.
After a while of frolicking, the crowd finally arrived at the chief's mansion at 17:50.
Under the leadership of the secretary-general, everyone came down from the cabin in turn, and looked up, surrounded by beautifully cut green vegetation, a tree-lined path that only allowed two people to stand side by side, and a two-story villa next to a big tree in the distance, with staggered layers and elegant style.
The chief's mansion is not as grand and luxurious as imagined, but the villa that looks a little larger on the outside is even simpler than Liu Ziyan's home.
Everyone quietly followed the secretary-general, stepped on the tree-lined path, and walked towards the villa not far away.
After walking for about two minutes, I saw a comfortable warm light shining through the open door in the distance, and on either side of the door were two women dressed as maids, with their hands folded in front of their chests, their heads bowed, waiting for the upcoming guests.
As the Secretary-General approached, the maid on the right said softly to the Secretary-General, "The dinner has been prepared. ”
The Secretary-General nodded, and walked straight to the banquet venue with the group.
Xia Xihe followed behind the secretary-general, and when he stepped into the villa, there was a kind of fresh warmth rushing to his face, and in the cold weather in November, it made people feel like spring flowers blooming!
The interior of the mansion still adheres to the characteristics of cleanliness, simplicity, elegance and connotation, from which the personality of the chief can also be inferred.
Far away, Xia Xihe saw a beautiful woman standing next to the pillar in the distance, in fact, she didn't see the woman's appearance, but the temperament she exuded made Xia Xihe feel that she was very beautiful.
The woman wears a green and blue dress, with a brown ribbon tied at the waist, and the skirt design on the upper body is also very unique, with long sleeves, raglan shoulders, and standing collars, but the sleeve arms, shoulders, and neckline are embroidered with gold, which is elegant and atmospheric.
When the woman saw the secretary general and the others behind him, she smiled gracefully and stepped forward to meet him.
"Ma'am." The Secretary-General bowed politely.
"The Secretary-General is gracious." Madame waved her hand.
The Secretary-General naturally turned sideways and introduced the identity of this lady to Xia Xihe and the others, "This is the chief lady, you can call it the chief lady." ”
"No need, just call me Mrs. Chen." Mrs. Chen smiled and shook her head.
"Hello Mrs. Chen." Xia Xihe took the lead in greeting and bowing.
The people behind her did the same, bowing and saying hello.
"They're all good boys." Mrs. Chen's praise with a smile fell on everyone in turn, so that everyone could understand that she valued and loved them, but she was very measured, and the time of this gaze was neither long nor short.
"Shall we go in quickly, then? The dinner party is waiting for you little heroes. Mrs. Chen made a gesture of please, smiled and took the lead.
At the signal of the secretary general, Xia Xihe and the others followed behind Mrs. Chen in turn and walked forward.
The venue of the dinner was a delicately decorated room, very spacious, with a large round table in the center of the eye, with a new red tablecloth on the table, displaying dishes full of color and aroma, and porcelain bowls like white jade, which were strictly placed in the same way as they were about to be used.
"Sit down, you're welcome, just like your own home." Mrs. Chen said with a smile.
With a polite smile, everyone stepped forward one after another and found their own places to sit down, these positions are free for everyone to sit in, but everyone still invariably distinguished, one team after another, clearly distinguished.
After all seventeen people were seated, there were exactly two seats left for the chief and the chief lady.
Mrs. Chen left the position of the chief to the chief, stood on another vacant seat, and said gently to the maid in the distance, "Go and ask when the chief can come over." ”
The maid nodded and left.
"The chief is still dealing with some things, so he couldn't come over, please don't mind, little heroes, please eat first." With a hint of apology, Mrs. Chen said to everyone.
"It's okay, it's okay."
Everyone said with expressions that didn't matter.
In fact, it is already a great honor to be invited to the dinner at the home of the chief, and it is understandable that the chief is busy with political affairs.
"There is a meeting gift that I personally prepared for you on the table, you can find out where it is hidden? The person who finds it first also has a special gift. Mrs. Chen said in a slightly playful tone.
And gifts? Xia Xihe quickly searched for the delicate dishes placed in front of him, and suddenly turned over a golden magnetic card from the bottom of the porcelain plate.
"Cards?" When Xia Xihe saw this card, she felt like a bank card from their time, and her first reaction was that there should be a lot of money in it, right?
Mrs. Chen looked at Xia Xihe, who was found the fastest, smiled lightly, snapped her fingers, and a white cloud, planted with a square wooden box, slowly fell in front of Xia Xihe.
"What is this?" Xia Xihe was stunned.
Everyone also turned out the golden magnetic card at this time, and as soon as they looked up, they saw the wooden box in front of Xia Xihe that was carried by the clouds, compared to the surprise of Le Zhixuan and others, some Liu Ziyan and Su Yihang and others who had lived in the center for a long time all knew that the chief lady's ability was cloud, so when they saw this thing appear in front of Xia Xihe, they already knew that the chief lady was using this little game to send something to Xia Xihe.
"Miss Xia is the fastest to find, so the gifts in this wooden box are also given to Miss Xia." Mrs. Chen explained with a smile.
"Can I open it and take a look?" Xia Xihe pinched the white cloud curiously, and then took the wooden box from the white cloud.
"Of course." Mrs. Chen pursed her lips and smiled.
"Click-"
Xia Xihe opened the wooden box and saw a silver ring embedded in the center of the wooden box.
Mrs. Chen explained, "This is the space ring, and there is twenty square meters of space in it. ”
"Space Ring?!" Xia Xihe's eyes widened in surprise, she thought that the chief lady gave her a ring for what! It turns out that this thing can actually store things!
That's too generous, isn't it?
The people who heard this on the side didn't expect the chief to be so generous, you must know that the jewelry in all spaces is quite rare and valuable, and it is not easy to make.
Now that it is such a valuable thing, it can be seen that the chief and the chief lady attach great importance to Xia Xihe.
"Put it on and try it." Mrs. Chen said.
Xia Xihe took off the ring and put it on the index finger of his left hand under the envious gaze of everyone.
On a set of rings, Xia Xihe felt that the ring was tightening, according to her fingers tightening, and the fingertips of her right hand touched the ring, she could clearly sense the things in the space in her mind, which was very peculiar.
"Thank you, Mrs. Chen." Xia Xihe stood up from her seat and bowed to Mrs. Chen.
"If you like it, sit down!" Mrs. Chen said with a smile.
