When Gu Bei and Chu Zihang first returned to Peacock Mansion, Su Xiaoyan and others had not gotten up yet.
But that’s right, these guys were high until early in the morning yesterday, and even Chu Zihang, who had always had a very regular schedule, was not let go, and was directly caught playing all night - it was not the aunts who played with Chu Zihang, but Chu Zihang Hang accompanied me to play mahjong.
Lu Tianming worked overtime again last night. I don't know why. This old director of the Lu Group always likes to do things by himself. Overtime has become the norm, and not working overtime is an accident.
So all these years, mother and daughter Chu Zihang and Su Xiaoyan have been accompanied only by cold money - it seems good to think about it this way.
In fact, Lu Tianming is very good to his family, but this guy is too similar to Chu Zihang's character - they are both cold and cold.
As for how similar it is?
Let's put it this way, if Chu Zihang, Chu Tianjiao and Lu Tianming stand together, most people will think that Chu Zihang and Lu Tianming are biological children.
This also leads to the fact that Gu Bei's cheap godfather is not very good at expressing emotions and only knows how to spend money - which seems really good when you think about it.
If you don't go home, don't go home. As long as you have money - of course, this is just a joke. For Su Xiaoyan, Lu Tianming's existence is not a wallet she prepared for Chu Zihang, but a person who can concentrate on People who give their feelings.
Although this middle-aged woman lives like an underage girl, there is no denying that her ideas are very mature.
It was precisely because of this that Chu Zihang accepted Lu Tianming.
But having said that, the composition of this family is really strange. There is a head of the family named Lu, a wife named Su, a son named Chu, a godson named Gu, and two daughters-in-law, one of whom is Japanese. The other one is not even a human being at all.
It perfectly embodies what it means to make do.
Su Xiaoyan was obviously unaware of this. Her sense of belonging to this family should be the strongest among all the people, so Lu Tianming didn't come back for the New Year's Eve reunion dinner. She was still a little unhappy until Lu Tianming After Ming repeatedly promised on the phone that he would spare three days to go shopping with her during the Chinese New Year, she pouted and let Mr. Lu go.
Then there is a whole night of carnival... In fact, this is already normal. Su Xiaoyan's daily life is like this. Mr. Lu is at home with Mr. Lu, but Mr. Lu is not with his best friends.
Su Xiaoyan is a person who is particularly afraid of loneliness. She must have someone around her to liven up with in order to feel at ease.
Therefore, Su Xiaoyan's best friends will basically come over to take shifts when Mr. Lu is away. Occasionally, everyone will come together and let themselves go.
As for the suggestion of playing mahjong, it was Eriyi who suggested it.
The little girl got addicted after playing two games of mahjong with Gu Bei in Shikatori Town last time. Later, after arriving in Tianchao, she read a lot of comics and animations when she was bored, and then she saw a book called "Genius" Mahjong Girl" manga, and then it got out of hand.
Not only that, there was even a tendency to become middle-class, using a very strange gesture every time a card was played - Gu Bei felt that he should also look for that comic and read it.
Everyone played mahjong all night, and the game ended in the early morning. Then Eliyi was dragged to bed by Su Xiaoyan - she had wanted this girl to be her pillow for a long time.
In order to prevent a bowl of water from being uneven, she also took Xia Mi away, and in the name of preventing Gu Bei and Chu Zihang from doing bad things.
Gu Bei:?_?
Chu Zihang:-_-
Natsumi and Eri did not resist. Although they were a high-level hybrid and a dragon king, and had little need for sleep, they did not reject Su Xiaoyan's kindness.
However, they probably don't know what they are about to face.
Gu Bei and Chu Zihang were sitting on the sofa in the living room. Chu Zihang was completing a practical assignment in the alchemical machinery major - carving an alchemical matrix composed of at least six dragon characters on the plate. The matrix had at least one effect and must run smoothly. .
Today’s practical assignment for the alchemy machinery major was given directly by the vice-principal.
In the past, the homework for freshmen was probably to write a six-foot paper or to present their own understanding of relevant books. It was impossible to have practical knowledge.
Practice homework.
But this year is different. The purpose of today’s practical assignment is to select some students with alchemy talents to participate in the production of Qi Chi and gradually improve the assembly line production of Qi Chi. Although it is a bit difficult, you can try it first. Wave.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Qi Chi is a promising new technology. By combining alchemy and weapon refining, materials can be created that allow the coexistence of Yanling and Yuan Qi. If further research can be carried out, Qi Chi can not only be Qi Chi, but also It can be an alchemical weapon used to efficiently kill dragons.
Angers attaches great importance to this technology, and together with the Night Watchmen, issued a hush-hush order to the entire equipment department and those involved in the experiment, explicitly prohibiting this matter from being spread to outsiders - even the school board of directors hid it.
Gu Bei could probably guess what he was thinking about doing this, just like Ben Parker had not been heard from since he was taken away by Cassell Research Laboratory. Even few people in the secret party knew about Ben Parker.
Angers' purpose was to slay the dragon, not to consider how to increase the strength of the Secret Party. These useful things were hidden by him, and it was obvious that he could not trust the Secret Party.
In other words, he had already guessed the fact that there was a mole in the secret party.
Angers was a lot smoother than Gu Bei thought. Although he was a revengeful man with a volcano in his heart, he was an old man and no one knew what other trump cards this guy had hidden.
Anyway, Gu Bei didn't have 100% trust in this guy.
And in Gu Bei's view, Angers and Herzog are similar to a certain extent. They are both good at thinking in the way of dragons, but Angers' goal is to use dragons to deal with dragons, while Herzog Erzog wanted to become a dragon.
So from the beginning, Angers was destined to become a dragon-slaying warrior, while Herzog's end was bound to be death.
Gu Bei sat opposite Chu Zihang, watching the TV screen replaying the disaster in Japan, and yawned, feeling a little idle.
But this is just the surface.
In fact, within Gu Bei's body, Yuan Qi is constantly running and surging, and then separates strands to fill the cracks in the runes on the body, completing the upgrade process bit by bit.
This process is very slow, but the advantage is that it will not make too much noise and avoid causing commotion.
He is different from a guy who likes to cause turmoil in the elements casually. He is a good and law-abiding person.
"Master Gu." Aunt Tong walked in from behind, holding a package in her arms, "There is a package for you."
"Mine?" Gu Bei took the package, "Thank you, Aunt Tong, you go and do your work first."
Aunt Tong nodded: "Yes." Then stepped back.
Gu Bei looked at the mailing address: "Chicago, Illinois, USA...Casel?"
Gu Bei was puzzled. If there was something going on in the college, he couldn't just let Norma tell him directly and send him something?
By the way, Lu Mingfei must have received the Kassel admission notice today. Could it be that the express delivery from Kassel has been piled up today... Wait a minute! ?
Admission notice! ?
Gu Bei turned around and looked at Chu Zihang who came over after hearing the sound.
Chu Zihang: "What's wrong?"
"Senior brother, tell me the truth, do you have any younger brothers or sisters?"
"...I suggest you go to the hospital in advance to reserve a bed."
"...Senior brother, are you calling me sick?"
"That's right."
"Chu Zihang, you are so advanced in cursing now!"
"Excellent."
"...Who did you learn this from?"
Chu Zihang rolled his eyes: "What do you think?"
"I think this person must be wise, mighty, and have an extraordinary temperament. He must be handsome, charming, and charming. He will be loved by everyone..."
"Oh, I learned it from Fingel and Lu Mingfei."
"...Senior brother, did you do this on purpose!?"
"Stop talking nonsense," Chu Zihang looked at the package in his hand, "Is this from the academy? What is it?"
"If I guess correctly, it should be the admission notice."
Chu Zihang: "...
? ? ? "
Gu Bei spread his hands and said, "Right, you are also wondering. We are the only two children in our family, but we are already students of the college. It is impossible for the college to admit us again."
"Could it be sent by mistake?" Chu Zihang speculated.
Gu Bei shook his head: "Yes, it's my name."
"...your acceptance letter?"
"How is this possible? I'm already a professor in Cassel - even though I'm supernumerary."
"I don't know...take it apart and take a look."
Gu Bei opened the package three times, then ignored the other miscellaneous things inside, took out the envelope, and opened it decisively.
However, even though it is not an admission letter, it is an exchange student notice.
Dear Miss Eri Uesugi:
You have been selected to participate in the exchange program between Kassel headquarters and Japan branch...
Gu Bei's mouth twitched and he stuffed the letter back into the envelope.
Chu Zihang: "Did you do it?"
Gu Bei shook his head like a rattle.
God knows, although he did think about getting Eri into Kassel through some reasonable means, but they were just ideas and not put into action.
But this letter immediately confirmed the matter. This yellow mud fell into the crotch, either * or *.
But this thing... who did it?
Gu Bei looked at the envelope in his hand and fell into deep thought.
——
Far away in Tokyo on the other side of the ocean, while enjoying lunch, she was joking with her brother in her mind. The two brothers had not seen each other for so many years, but now they became one when they met. They always wanted to be affectionate and affectionate - between brothers. of.
At this time, Yuan Zhennu suddenly sneezed.
Sakurai Kogure, who was sitting on her knees, asked with concern: "Dragon King, are you okay?"
Although he has changed camps, he still likes to call Yuan Jingnu the Dragon King. This led to many meetings where the senior leaders of the Snake Qiba Family thought that they had mistakenly entered the scene of a high-level meeting of the Fierce Ghosts.
"It's okay. It's probably because the weather has been too cold recently and I caught a cold." Yuan Zhimu smiled.
This is a lie. Mixed bloods basically don't get sick, not to mention the royal blood, which has the highest physical strength among mixed bloods. Even if the new coronavirus comes in, it will have to endure several big fights, so it is definitely not possible to catch a cold.
However, it was such a clumsy lie that Sakurai Kogure actually believed it.
"Lord Dragon King, you still need to take care of yourself." Sakurai Kogure sandwiched another piece of tempura for Minamoto Chime.
Yuan Jingnu looked at the hill of rice bowls in front of her and sighed helplessly.
"By the way, how are you doing with the things you were asked to do recently?"
"It's done. Kassel has approved the exchange student agreement for the eldest lady. The previous exchange student's file has been transferred back. Counting the time, the lady should have received the exchange student's notification by this time. "
"No news from Gu Bei?"
"Not yet... It should be soon. After receiving the exchange student agreement, he should be able to guess that we did it soon."
"If he calls, you answer."
"yes."
"Also," Yuan Zhisheng nodded, "that exchange student from before...who is he?"
"The third son of the Miyamoto family, Saburo Miyamoto, is the president of the Kassel Judo Club. It is said that he even fought against Mr. Gu."
"I'm not good at dealing with that group of people. I'll give Saburo Miyamoto a diplomatic position and let him deal with those old foxes in Kassel."
"yes."
"besides……"
"Um?"
"It seems to be okay."
"Master Dragon King, eat this sushi. I rolled it myself."
"Hmm... Not bad... Oh, I remembered that Chu Zihang's knife is probably broken. Let the exhibition hall pick up a good knife and send it over."
"I'm afraid that won't work."
"?"
"dragon
Lord Wang does not know that the hidden knives in the exhibition hall were used by His Majesty in the previous battle. According to the reports of family members who counted the damage in the battle, except for the highest quality ones, all the remaining hidden knives were damaged. Now the swordsmiths are actively repairing the damaged swords, and the exhibition halls are full of fakes. "
Minamoto no child was silent, and then he remembered Uesugi's operation in the Nibelungen, carrying a large bag of alchemy swords and slashing randomly. At that time, he was still thinking that the Snake Qibachi family was indeed the Snake Qibachi family, that is, Rich and wealthy, now it seems that this is not rich and wealthy, it is simply a matter of being on the bottom of the pile. "
Yuan Jingnu thought for a while: "Then choose one of the remaining knives and send it over."
"I'm afraid this won't work either." Sakurai Kogure said calmly.
"No way? Why?"
"Because the remaining handfuls were given to other family heads for use."
Yuan Jingnu: "..."
"Forget it, let the swordsmith give it a shot later and then send it over."
"yes."
"Hmm...what else is going on..."
There were too many things to do. Since becoming the queen of the Sheqi Eight Clan, Yuan Zhennu knew for the first time what it felt like to have too many things to do - no experience at all, just tired, so tired that she didn't even want to move a finger. I was so tired that even with the emperor's physique, I couldn't hold on, and I could fall asleep as long as I closed my eyes.
Another side effect of becoming the emperor of the eight Sheqi families is forgetfulness, because there are too many things to do. After doing this and that, something will pop up, and after doing that, something will go wrong.
In addition, we are now in an extraordinary period of post-disaster reconstruction.
Yuan Zongnu is so busy that her feet never touch the ground.
Fortunately, Yuan Zhisheng occasionally came out to help support him, but even if he returned to his subconscious, Yuan Zhisheng couldn't rest well because there was still a white king waiting for him inside.
"Lord Dragon King, you still need to take care of yourself."
Sakurai Kogure said and put another piece of raw fish into Minamoto's bowl.
