That's true, but when it comes to important matters, women don't have the final say.
The officer brushed the woman off with a few words and then led them onward.
They hadn't gone far when the officer suddenly spoke up, issuing a sarcastic warning to Yi Mu and Xiang Qing.
"That woman just now is our vice leader's mistress. Although she is currently favored, she is ultimately just a plaything and cannot bring you anything substantial. Think clearly and don't have too many ideas."
Neither Yi Mu nor Xiang Qing considered that possibility.
His warning came out of nowhere, clearly indicating that he had something to hide.
Yi Mu found it amusing, but knew it wasn't the time to be sarcastic, so he kept quiet.
The usually composed Xiang Qing didn't choose to keep quiet. He smiled and said, "I think you're quite handsome and agile, and that lady might like your type."
No one dislikes being praised, and the man's face clearly showed a smile, unaware that Xiang Qing was using the compliment to mock him.
He fiddled with his hair, and for the rest of the journey, the officer kept praising himself, both openly and subtly, which was quite shameless.
Yi Mu was overwhelmed with questions and wanted to tell him to shut up, but luckily their destination was right in front of them.
There was only a round, spherical building in front of me, not very big, but with a futuristic feel.
Yi Mu guessed that there must be a considerable space underneath this ball, perhaps even an underground city.
The man composed himself, walked to the front of the building, and placed his palm on a small box in front of the door.
The door slid open from both sides, revealing a stark white space completely empty.
The soldiers who had escorted them were waiting outside the door, but only the officer went into the room with them.
They stood in the very center of the room, and once they were steady, that area suddenly separated from the surrounding ground, forming a circle that descended towards the ground.
Yu Die was startled and almost screamed.
This kind of scene, which you only see in science fiction movies, unexpectedly happened to her.
Thinking of the futuristic experimental equipment and researchers in white coats in the movie, Yu Die felt a slight excitement.
I wonder what role her father plays here. With his abilities, he must be a high-ranking official here.
She won't have to worry about the rest of her life.
Once she settles down here, Xiang Qing will no longer have anything to do with Yi Mu, that ass seller.
With both families present, they will definitely urge the two of them to get married as soon as possible.
Yu Die's mind raced with fantasies about the future; she even envisioned the birth of her and Xiang Qing's baby.
The child is definitely much better looking than Yue Xia's son, after all, the two of them were known as the golden couple since childhood.
About half a minute later, the elevator stopped.
Instead of the high-tech scene Yu Die had imagined, what lay before her was the lively scene of a banquet, a familiar sight to everyone.
A large crystal chandelier in the dome, and solid wood floors polished to a gleaming shine.
Elegant piano music plays as a woman with a refined face, holding a glass of red wine, strolls through an exquisitely decorated venue.
The waiter was tall and had long legs, wearing a tie, a narrow vest, and a white shirt.
There were also prostitutes dressed in revealing catwoman outfits, covering only their buttocks, with bells around their necks, who would occasionally rub their bodies against those bald, middle-aged men who looked very important, their faces blatantly naked, showing no regard for the occasion.
Everything before my eyes looks like a dream.
Yu Die's thoughts suddenly drifted back to some outrageous parties she had attended many years ago, which were exactly the same as the scene before her eyes.
The officer said with great envy, "So it turns out that you gentlemen are having a banquet tonight. We didn't even know it before."
Judging from his tone, he really wanted to participate, but he wasn't qualified.
