Chapter 40 Chapter 40 Tang En saw that Plaus didn't know...
Tang En saw that Plaus was at a loss, and said, "Put it on, we will leave soon."
Plaus was a little at a loss, but still changed his clothes.
A suit is not like a training uniform. Training uniforms are slim-fitting but not close-fitting. They are mainly fit and convenient for movement.
But there is no dress in the world that exists for comfort.
Plaus always felt a little awkward after putting it on, but he did look good in the mirror. Tang En took a look at him and praised him, "Not bad."
Tang En rarely commented on Plaus's appearance, so with her affirmation, Plaus unconsciously stood up a little straighter to make his body look better.
There were many people coming and going at Iris's wedding. Alicia's golden hair was too dazzling. She was so busy that she seemed to be flying in the venue. There were also some people that Tang En didn't know. They should be the family members of the bride who he had never met .
Felix followed Tang En closely. The one who greeted Tang En was a middle-aged fat man with a flower on his chest and a big smile on his face.
"Miss Campbell, please come this way, haha."
He was the father of the bride.
"This is--" He looked at Felix.
"This is a classmate of ours from the same school." Tang En said briefly, and then said a few words of congratulations.
The middle-aged man looked very proud, and quickly led the two of them to the group of military academy students. He was still talking to Tang En while walking, trying to please him and praising the First Army.
Whether Tang En was really flattered or not, Felix couldn't tell, but their conversation did not seem dull.
Felix saw Oscar and William, and then he relaxed.
Oscar was eating fruit with relish, his eyes were still looking around, and when he saw Felix and Tang En, he waved to them.
William next to him looked like he was attending a funeral instead of a wedding. He crossed his arms and said nothing.
Tang En looked in the direction of Oscar, and the middle-aged man also observed his expression and immediately said, "Miss Campbell, I have to go and get busy. Please forgive me for the poor hospitality."
The luxury of the wedding was indeed beyond the imagination of Calus.
Thin and shiny fabrics were used as decorations in the venue, stacked in layers in the shadows of the walls, even though it was a place where no one would go; cleaning robots shuttled among the crowd, cleaning up some garbage that affected people's walking in real time; waiters wore uniform uniforms, holding plates with various kinds of wine and drinks in their hands; white gardenias and other flowers filled the vases, and some were picked by guests and inserted on their pet dogs as decorations.
Even now, when the banquet has not really started, a lot of food and drinks have fallen on the ground.
It's not like he hasn't seen extravagant scenes before. He still remembers how he felt when he first entered the Red House in the Bush of Thorns.
Just as the female Beta said, everyone was wearing clean and luxurious clothes. High-end perfumes and flower makeup dotted the lobby, corridors and smiling staff. It
was completely unlike Sigma. The red light district he knew before was never like that. He even wondered if the door he just passed through was the legendary wormhole that transported him to the legendary heaven.
He felt similar now.
There were also people who wanted to show their affection to Tang En, but after she sat next to the cadets, the tall students were more or less oppressive.
There were students who wanted to get close to Tang En, and many of them were children of military and politicians.
They were the ones in the same group.
Iris also saw Tang En, and she was in high spirits at this time. She came over and greeted them very attentively, and then said to Tang En: "Come to my best man and bridesmaid group later, I hope you can also participate."
Tang En said: "Okay."
Oscar came to La Feluz, and the three of them were the "no one cares about the group".
Feluz looked at him.
Iris's arrival happened to bring some other irrelevant people, and they took this opportunity to talk to Tang En.
Oscar made money by selling information and taking orders at school, so his family was obviously not that rich; William's family situation seemed to be better than Oscar's, but he also spent all day in the laboratory and lacked social interaction.
"Hurry up and eat something," Oscar said.
Felix took a few pieces of fruit, but did not touch the wine.
There was a half-drunk glass of wine in front of William. Suddenly, someone knocked on the back of William's chair and said, "Congratulations, William. I heard that you applied for a patent again."
William said "hmm" and "thank you."
The man had a smile on his face, but Felix could see that he was getting angry.
Oscar reached out and patted the other person on the shoulder, took a glass of wine from the tray of a passing waiter, and clinked glasses with him, "Don't argue with a skilled worker, he has no emotional intelligence."
The man saw Oscar drink most of the glass in one gulp, his expression softened a little, and then he walked away.
William had a wooden face, obviously still a little confused, and asked Oscar: "What did I say wrong just now?"
Falrus thought about it, probably because the other person was trying to get close to him, but William did not return the favor in the same way.
Oscar shook his head, "You are still too young."
This was a bit funny for Oscar to say, after all, he and William were the same age.
William drank the rest of the wine in
one gulp, and seeing the grand scene next to Tang En who was sitting on the other side, he said, "Sorry, I asked you to smooth things over for me, but I didn't stand high enough." Tang En could make the host of the banquet find an excuse to leave by tilting his head, but William was angered by his polite reply of thanks.
"I don't think she enjoys this either," Oscar said, "Senior sister just understands the courtesy of those people."
Tang En's concern for his own people is incomparable to these social etiquettes.
From helping them to open up their joints to bringing garbage bags to William yesterday.
"I don't hate her, I just hate myself, and I hate those people equally." William said.
Felix also followed William's gaze and looked at Tang En.
Although they were less than two meters apart, they seemed to be in different worlds.
Tang En had a faint smile on her face, and there were five or six people standing beside her. She handled everyone with ease, but not everyone answered, so the direction of the conversation automatically screened out some people.
"His Majesty the Emperor's successor, the Third Prince..."
"The president of the Federation is elected by vote, and each place has autonomy."
"The last time the crown prince was established... for an O, it affected a lot of people, tsk tsk."
Tang En knew that they were chatting about the royal family's gossip on the surface, but in fact they were attacking the empire's system, and digging deeper was supporting the separatist autonomy of the major military groups. But because those who said these things were young people, and because of her identity, they would say these things as a joke in front of her.
This group of people were just waiting for her to say something certain - that would prove that she was not cunning, and they could push her to become a leader and a new generation of reform pioneers.
If this option was not available, they would have also wanted to wait for Tang En to laugh at the royal gossip with them, to observe whether the new generation of the Campbell family stood in close contact with the military.
So her attitude was quite ambiguous.
She was very interested in what they said, but she never made a clear statement.
The people around her looked at her expression at first, thinking that their words were approved of, but after a while they still couldn't hear what she said, so they were a little unsure, and finally said angrily: "The royal family is still a symbol of the empire after all, with constant illegitimate children and romantic scandals, and some Federation people also going to the star network of the Kingdom of God. It's really embarrassing for the whole galaxy."
Tang En nodded slightly.
But enough time had been delayed before, and now the music in the venue changed, and the wedding was about to begin.
The people around her had to take their seats. After all, this is Iris's wedding, and they need to give the protagonist the most basic respect.
Tang En looked at the people around her, such as Felix, crossed his legs, and said with a smile: "Not bad, no one else took our seat this time."
William: "Are you complimenting us or scolding us?"
Oscar: ...
Felix: ...
Felix: "Well, it should be a compliment."
Of course, someone wanted to squeeze the three of them out of the seats, and the tricks they used were both civil and military. The military trick was to suddenly sit down and forcefully squeeze them out, but it was difficult to succeed when the three young military cadets were on guard; the civil trick was to gently ask "Can I sit down for a while?" It seemed that they were polite and intended to sit here for a while and then leave, but it was often the case that they would not return.
Oscar had already cracked this trick and responded with the same slick words; Phaerus was polite but found a seemingly reasonable reason to directly refuse. The fact that such a person was willing to pretend meant that they were unwilling to have a conflict. He was well aware of this style of bullying the weak and fearing the strong; and William pretended to be deaf and dumb, pretending that he didn't hear and couldn't speak.
Tang En stood up and said, "I'm leaving first and will be back later."
The witness walked onto the podium, suppressed the noise in the audience, and began to read the written words.
"Under the witness of God, we gather here to witness the wedding of this couple together...."
Phaerus marveled at the silent magic of the pastor's microphone.
Soon after, the bride walked slowly on the red carpet, holding his father's arm. Her skirt was huge, and the heavy train moved behind her.
Her beautiful face was covered by the hazy veil, and under the sunlight, it revealed a happy glow. After
being busy for a long time, Iris finally appeared again, and her face was also full of happiness.
"Our newlyweds have an 85% match. Perhaps you are willing to share the details of your relationship?"
Although the mention of the match was a bit deliberate, the number surprised and shocked the guests.
The bride took the microphone and spoke first. She looked a little shy but very excited. "When I met her for the first time, Li Su and I had never met before, but we had a tacit understanding and we had telepathic induction."
