Su Tianming pursed his lips and tactfully kept silent.
On one side, He Yifeng explained to Nan Muran and the others, "Since the beginning of the apocalypse, there have been intruders from various forces in the Jing City base. The official way of dealing with it has always been to publicize it afterwards, so everyone is used to it."
Nan Muran raised her eyebrows slightly: "I'm used to people dying on the street at any time. It's quite novel."
"The five Obsidian families haven't always been so harmonious." Su Tianming looked at Nan Muran and said.
| "So, there has been infighting?"
Su Tianming nodded: "After the end of the world, everyone has been trying to get along, and it's much better now."
"After all, they are communities with common interests, so it's not surprising that they are on the same boat." Nan Muran was really curious about how the five Obsidian families agreed on the imperial power on the altar.
"Do you want to go to the Su family's old house?" Su Tianming obviously didn't want to continue this topic, so he looked at Si Ye.
“Can I go again?” Nan Muran was a little surprised.
Aren't you afraid of me? How dare you invite me to your old house? Are you trying to save your life?
Su Tianming looked at Nan Muran helplessly: "No one in the Su family lives there, so it has been abandoned for a long time. But my cousin and brother-in-law lived there for a long time before, and I think Xiaoye would like to take a look."
"I don't have time recently, let's do it another day." Si Ye suddenly said.
Feeling Si Ye's obvious rejection, Nan Muran sighed and said nothing more.
After the meal, the group left the barbecue restaurant. The originally crowded streets were much less crowded. But because everyone's day and night were reversed, the shops on both sides were still very busy.
"Clothing store." Chu Jiao was obviously surprised when she saw the clothing store next to her.
“Come in and take a look?” Nan Muran encouraged with her eyes.
Chu Jiao shook her head subconsciously: "It's the end of the world, those things are probably not cheap."
"Let's go. We at Xingci are the least short of money." Nan Muran stretched out her hand and pulled her up and headed straight for the clothing store.
The clothing store's facade is low-key but stylish, which suits Nan Muran's taste. After entering, she found that the lights inside were as bright as before the end of the world, a little dazzling. The dark gray exterior wall is matched with simple metal lines, which is smooth and elegant.
The clothes racks and display stands inside are obviously carefully designed. They are beautiful but not very practical.
Chu Jiao looked at the high-end cashmere coats and heavy-duty silk and couldn't help frowning: "This is not suitable for daily wear."
"We won't be outside all the time, we can wear them after we get back to the base." Nan Muran said nonchalantly, "Try them all if you like them, I'll pay for you."
Just as they were talking, a calm and elegant middle-aged woman walked out. She was wearing a black slim cheongsam that outlined her perfect figure, and a light grey fur coat. She looked elegant, noble and full of charm.
The woman who was originally planning to entertain them was stunned the moment she saw Si Ye. After a long time, she murmured, "Are you, Si Nan?"
Si Ye frowned and reminded the other party in a low voice: "Si Ye."
After hearing his words, the middle-aged woman was in disbelief at first. She was too familiar with this name. Su Ying, who had been pregnant for ten months, would always call this name softly.
After a long while, Liu Yiyi looked at Si Ye: "Do you know who you are?"
"You should know." Si Ye looked at the other party and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Hearing this, Liu Yiyi suddenly became excited, her voice trembling uncontrollably: "Xiao Ye, is it really you? But, your parents said at the time that you..."
Suddenly she paused, as if she understood something, and then burst into tears of joy: "Forget it, it doesn't matter anymore. It's good enough that you're alive."
Si Ye was a little uncomfortable with the woman crying and laughing, but he didn't feel disgusted. This was a feeling he had never had before when facing the Si family or even the overly enthusiastic Su Tianming: "Who are you?"
"I'm Liu Yiyi, your parents' best friend when they were alive. You..." Suddenly, Liu Yiyi seemed to remember something, and turned around to look at the clerk not far away, saying in a firm and resolute tone: "Xiaoning, go close the door and put up the sign. We are closed today."
Then she looked at Si Ye with a nervous expression: "How long have you been in the Jing City Security Base? Have you been noticed by anyone?"
"I just arrived today." Si Ye looked at her nervous expression and said truthfully.
Liu Yiyi first let out a long sigh, then looked at Xiao Ning beside her, with a bit more ruthlessness in her eyes: "Go and deal with all the spies on this street outside, and don't leave any traces."
It was not until this time that Nan Muran knew what Liu Yiyi was thinking. She quickly said, "Ms. Liu, the people from Hei Yao know that Si Ye is in the safe base in Beijing."
Hearing this, Liu Yiyi looked at Nan Muran, and was first surprised by her appearance, and then frowned: "Then he can't stay here, I will arrange for someone to send you out of the city immediately."
"We came here specifically for the Beijing Security Base." Si Ye finally understood Liu Yiyi's thoughts and said hurriedly.
"You are specifically... Did the Obsidian people deceive you? Xiaoye, listen to me, you can't trust any of the five Obsidian families. No matter what they told you, they are lying to you." Liu Yiyi was a little anxious and her tone couldn't help but become irritable.
It was the first time that Si Ye heard such a straightforward reminder from someone. He couldn't help but laugh: "I know, I didn't come back because I trusted them."
Liu Yiyi's pretty eyebrows knitted together when she heard this: "What did they tell you? That's not right. They helped you come back, but didn't they ask you to go back to the villa area?"
If he doesn't go into the villa area, how can you pretend to be nice to him and make him obey you?
"Um, is it convenient for you to sit down and talk?" For the first time, Si Ye was willing to trust an elder who once knew his parents.
Liu Yiyi looked at him for a long time and nodded: "Come with me."
Nan Muran signaled Jiawu and the others to go back to the hotel to meet up with Chen Jianguo, while she and Si Ye followed Liu Yiyi inside.
Go through the clothing store and go out the back door to see a small Chinese-style courtyard, quiet and simple, with a mottled wooden door full of poetic and picturesque feelings. The courtyard is not big, but the layout is very delicate. The bluestone bricks have been polished for years and have a faint warm luster. Bamboo leaves rustle in the corner of the wall.
The east room of the yard is a small study, and there is a bluestone table under the tree at the door.
Nan Muran looked around and couldn't help but sigh that there was such a courtyard in the center of the Beijing Security Base in the Doomsday.
"Would you like to sit down and have some tea?" Liu Yiyi looked at Nan Muran and Si Ye, who were not surprised at all, with admiration in her eyes.
