Chapter 520 The vast land and abundant resources
The dusk in Tianhai City is like a flowing oil painting. The golden sunlight shines on the busy streets, covering the city with a warm coat.
Against this background, a girl in a black and white dress is particularly eye-catching. She carries a girl in a pink dress on her back, and the combination of the two looks particularly harmonious in the crowd.
Seen from a distance, this is undoubtedly a heartwarming picture of an older sister carrying her younger sister on her back, full of family warmth and closeness between sisters.
However, surprisingly, the two are actually mother and daughter. The girl on the back, although she looks young, is the mother of two children.
"Mommy, what are you doing? You suddenly come to China and cause trouble for Xia Liya one after another. Don't you love me anymore~?"
There was a hint of playfulness in Xia Luer's voice, as if she was acting coquettishly to her mother, but her words also revealed a hint of confusion and worry.
"Didn't you give me time to look at her more?"
The girl on the back, Xia Luer's mother, replied lightly. Her voice was calm and indifferent, as if she didn't care about the noise around her.
"But I didn't ask you to go find Li Muhan. He's Xia Yue's boyfriend. Mom, you actually deliberately approached him. I feel a little guilty."
There was a hint of teasing in Xia Luer's tone, but also a hint of blame.
"I have to find out who made that zombie-like little thing rebel against me."
There was a hint of inquiry and dissatisfaction in the mother's words. She seemed confused and curious about Shallia's rebellious behavior.
"Oh my! How could Xia Liya have the guts to rebel against you? You know she's never been very smart. Seriously, Mommy, did you let her fall headfirst when you gave birth to her?"
There was a hint of joking in Charles' words, but at the same time, it also revealed her concern for her sister and teasing for her mother.
The girl raised her hand and pinched Xia Luer's face, her movements gentle but with a hint of warning: "You two were born at the same time. I've told you many times that if her brain fell to the ground, you'd probably be about the same."
Xia Luer frowned in pain, but soon regained her smile: "Oh my, oh my~ Mommy~ Stop it~ Then why is there such a big difference between her and me?"
She didn't use the word "gap" because she knew full well that while she had inherited her mother's crimson power, Shallia had also inherited her father's power. She, on the other hand, didn't possess even a single ounce of her father's power. This was why her mother favored her.
"Just like her cowardly father, a piece of shit."
There was a hint of disdain and contempt in the mother's words, and it was obvious that she did not have much good feelings towards her husband, the father of her two children.
"Even though you say Dad is a loser every day, you've never stopped looking for him all these years, right?"
There was a hint of teasing in Xia Luer's words, but at the same time, there was also a hint of inquiry. She was curious about her mother's true thoughts.
The girl increased her strength, squeezing Xia Luer so hard that she squinted her eyes. There was a hint of displeasure in her expression: "Hey, hey, hey, it hurts~ Mommy, what are you doing?"
The mother did not answer, but continued to pinch Charles' face, with a hint of playfulness in her eyes, as if she was enjoying this moment of intimacy and small revenge.
Passersby around them cast curious glances at them, but the two seemed to be oblivious to the situation, completely immersed in their own world.
And they are not the only unusual couple on this bustling street.
"Mother, I think this dress suits you very well."
A tall man in a leather jacket was choosing clothes for the woman in black in a clothing store in the mall.
"Charon, I'm not a fan of clothes with such bright colors, and we're here to pick out clothes for your sister Hypnos."
Beneath the woman's stunning beauty, there was a helpless smile on her face.
The tall man nodded, but the woman was still a little worried, so she asked the shopping guide to help her choose.
On the other side of the city, in an inconspicuous barbecue restaurant.
The boss was grilling barbecue while listening to a storytelling of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and the tall and beautiful girl sitting next to him was holding her chin with her hand and looking at him straight.
"Brother, come back with me."
"I've told you so many times, I really can't go back. And don't keep coming here to find me. I have an agreement with the Huaxia Special Management Bureau, and we can't meet."
"I don't care, you have to come with me, or I'll smash your store."
She silently sensed these powerful beings, and these beings also knew of her arrival.
The girl sighed slightly.
"What's so good about this land that it attracts so many old-timers?"
She couldn't help but sigh.
At this time, Xia Luer had already carried her to a private residence.
At the door, Wuzhiqi, Kong Su and the masked girl Aoyin were already waiting there.
"Mommy, you are responsible for cooking tonight. I haven't eaten your cooking for a long time~"
Charlotte put the girl down.
Although the girl had no intention of staying longer, looking at her daughter's expectant eyes, she could only helplessly raise her hand, stand on tiptoe, and rub Xia Luer's hair.
The relationship between me and my other daughter is probably beyond repair, so all I can do is try my best to make up for it while I can still hold on to it.
As for Li Muhan, he bought a lot of food, even some that were not on the receipt, and then asked the supermarket to drive a truck to the back door of Tianhai City Bank.
There was already a large group of people waiting at the back door, ready to move the goods.
They were basically employees of the logistics department or canteen. When they saw Li Muhan, they rolled their eyes at him and then started moving the goods.
The driver was leaning against the car door smoking a cigarette, wondering in his heart: Does this bank's cafeteria need so many ingredients?
After finishing all this, Li Muhan came to the door of Lin Ze's office with a bag of packed food.
Today, Lin Ze had a fight with Xia Yue's mother and he looked unhappy. He was also responsible and had to come and comfort her.
But after knocking on the door for a long time, there was no response from inside. Li Muhan didn't dare to open the door of Lin Ze's office casually, for fear that she was learning makeup again.
Just then, Chang Yue was passing by humming a little tune. Seeing Li Muhan standing stupidly at the door of Lin Ze's office, he shouted in confusion.
"Li Muhan, what the hell are you doing there!"
Li Muhan was startled by the shout, then turned to look at Chang Yue and said, "Director Chang, I'm looking for Director Lin. She probably hasn't eaten yet. I'll bring her some food."
"Oh, so it was you who made her unhappy? I was saying that there aren't many people in Tianhai City who can make Lin Ze unhappy. You're pretty awesome."
"Same here..."
Li Muhan smiled bitterly, and then Chang Yue lit a cigarette and pointed above his head.
"It's on the roof. Go up there by yourself, but don't tell them I told you."
"Thank you, Director Chang! You finally did something humane!"
After Li Muhan thanked him, he immediately turned around and ran upstairs, Chang Yue's angry curses echoing behind him: "Get lost! Who the hell are you being so sarcastic to!"
