The moon is as bright as an incandescent lamp.
It hangs in the night sky of Saint-Freux, and it is really like a lamp, with its brightness turned down.
Stars gradually appeared on the night stage, connecting into lines of constellations and drawing into the picture of the Milky Way. There were also some sparkling dust particles flowing densely like fine sand, like a layer of translucent gauze.
No words can describe the beauty of this night sky.
It is said that everyone's aesthetic taste is different.
But this night sky is absolutely flawless as Saint-Furre has recognized.
It is the most beautiful night sky that humans can imagine.
It was jointly developed and released by professors from the four factions of the Tower School and is the unique night sky of Saint-Freux.
Even Tacheng needs to go through a strict authorization process if it wants to use such a night sky.
"Look at the night sky tonight, everyone in Tacheng is taking advantage of you."
The window reflected Li Tingting's noble and mature makeup. Behind her, a woman tied her hair and carefully inserted a hairpin full of gems into her hair.
"It's so heavy..." Li Tingting subconsciously wanted to reach out to help her, but the buttons around her waist were instantly popped open.
"Take your belly in." The woman immediately bent down to tie it up again. "You remember, when walking on the carpet, don't make too big movements, and keep your belly in a tight state at all times."
"Hey -" Li Tingting sighed and reluctantly tried to retract her belly, "Mom, can't you change clothes? This skirt is so tight, it's not my size at all."
"No, this is the rule of the Li family. When my mother got married, she also wore a cheongsam." The woman looked her up and down, for fear of making any mistakes. She felt that everything was in order, then nodded with satisfaction and continued, "This is to remind the women of the Li family not to forget their origins and to always remember the rules of their ancestors."
Li Tingting stood silently. She looked at the sea of stars outside the window and felt a little sick.
All the arrangements and lights are designed to please the eyes of those distinguished guests.
Just like her makeup tonight.
"What's wrong with being a reporter?" Li Tingting couldn't help but say, "Even if I enter the tower, my salary will only increase by two thousand yuan. The night sky our family rents today will be enough for my lifetime salary, right?"
"Just say this to me, but don't let your dad hear it." The woman reached out and pinched a hair in front of Li Tingting's forehead, moved it to the left and then to the right, and finally pulled it out, "Li Tingting The family has been rich for generations, but no one wants to enter the tower.
Your father has also been fed up with the oppression of power. His long-cherished wish in this life is to raise offspring who can work at the top of the tower.
You also know that your three brothers are all rebellious masters, and no one is willing to listen to him.
Now that he has all his hopes on you, you must never disobey him again. "
"The most obedient person turns out to be the most bullied." Li Tingting curled her lips, "I can only obey for the time being. If I am bullied in the tower in the future, no matter what his long-cherished wish is, it is definitely I will resign immediately."
"Don't worry, the justice layer is not too busy. Look at the end of the year, how can there be anything that needs the help of people from the justice layer? Just leave it to the people below."
The woman patted her hands on Li Tingting's shoulders as if she was done, as if she was looking at the masterpiece she had carefully carved, "Your dad has made arrangements. There will be masters from the spiritual sect to train you before you join the job, and you just eat and drink. In three years, someone will naturally be promoted by then, and at the end of the day, he will be a veteran of the justice level."
Hearing what her mother said, Li Tingting's heart didn't waver. She thought of Jiang Tongtong whom she interviewed during the day, and she felt a little envious of her at that moment. At least, that Jiang Tongtong felt that she was great from the bottom of her heart.
But when Li Tingting looked at her mother, she felt that the woman in gorgeous clothes in front of her was very humble.
And she herself was born from humbleness, even more humblely.
"Sometimes, it's actually good for people to be a little stupid." Li Tingting murmured to herself.
At this time, Jiang Tongtong, who was far away in Saint-Fur, sneezed.
She got up and closed the window, returned to the desk, and continued to look at the electronic screen on the table.
An old man who was meditating was playing on the screen. His sharp little eyes seemed to penetrate the screen, staring at Jiang Tongtong, and said solemnly: "Keep the righteousness in mind, and do not do evil.
You have been practicing with me for so long, and now you can still be affected by wind and cold evil, and even sneeze, which is really disappointing to me. "
"Oh, grandpa, don't be so serious. The exam is tomorrow. No matter how much you cram in, it won't help?" Jiang Tongtong complained, "It really doesn't let anyone rest at all. Just after the exam, he asked me to go back to the hotel. The video connection doesn’t even take the time to get a cup of coffee.”
"To cultivate Qi, you should take five grains as nourishment, five fruits as help, five animals as benefit, five vegetables as supplement, and the smell should be combined... You are deliberately trying to anger grandpa by saying this.
Alas - it doesn't matter, grandpa is old and no longer useful. The old man shook his head helplessly, "I don't think I can control you much longer. When you officially enter Tower School, there will be a more professional Qi Gathering Master, and then there will be no need for an old guy like me." "
"Grandpa, you are serious, I didn't mean that." Before Jiang Tongtong finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, "Wait a minute, grandpa, it seems that the dinner I ordered has arrived."
"A full night will ruin your life, so eat less at night."
"Oh, I know!" Jiang Tongtong said perfunctorily, and immediately ran over to open the door.
The old man on the desktop screen shook his head, picked up the remote control next to him and pressed it. The video was instantly disconnected and the screen went black.
After Jiang Tongtong opened the door, thick smoke instantly hit her face.
"Cough cough cough! What are you doing?!" Jiang Tongtong was about to get angry, but when he saw the woman standing behind the man, she froze in place for an instant, with goose bumps on her back.
That woman actually looks exactly like her?
The woman looked at her and said to the bearded man in a tone of voice asking for credit: "Brother Bob, I remember it very clearly, right?
Because my grandfather died that night, and I only found out after the third exam. So much so that I felt for a long time that my grandpa was mad at me. "
"Well - 2132... 2145 -" Bob exhaled smoke and said, "After thirteen years, a person will always make some progress, right?"
The woman immediately understood what Bob meant. She nodded and raised the corners of her mouth slightly: "Leave her to me."
"Who are you?" When Jiang Tongtong saw the woman approaching, she stepped back in panic, "You...what are you going to do?"
"Don't be afraid, I am you." The woman looked stern and came to Jiang Tongtong in an instant.
The arms surrounding the air flow passed through her body, and the woman felt that her arms were very hot.
"It's okay." The woman used her other hand to gently smooth Jiang Tongtong's long hair, "You won't be so stupid in the future. I will replace you and rewrite our destiny."
