On the top floor of the building, the evening breeze blows through the filter surface above the floor-to-ceiling windows, making it pleasant and comfortable.
The surrounding lights flickered like dancing elves, and the energy shield above the city base shone like stars.
On the large holographic projection screen, aerial photos of the federal cities on the ground floated, accompanied by elegant ancient songs, giving the guests in the top-floor revolving restaurant a feeling of "the vastness of the blue sky without bottom, the sun and moon shining on the gold and silver platform"
feel.
At least Gu Ruoxi had such an illusion at this time.
She sat in a corner of the revolving restaurant by the window, looking at her smiling and satisfied grandmother, her joyful uncle, her parents and her aunt's family who were enjoying themselves, and suddenly she grabbed a handful of her thighs under the table curtain.
Pain hit her, letting her know that this was not an illusion.
But it really happened.
I am a commoner girl from a lower-class capital city with an ordinary family background and even a little poor, but I actually sat in the revolving restaurant on the top floor of the New Century Building that only the top 0.1% of the capital's richest officials and rich families are eligible to book, and it has the best scenery.
window seat.
Even the waiters who shuttle around, follow etiquette standards, and are meticulous are all handsome men and women in daily life. It is said that the academic requirements are also quite high. The restaurant manager must be a graduate of the Capital Affiliated College, and those who have changed their realm will be given priority.
consider.
‘Ninety percent of those who can book a table here and come to dine here are Nian cultivators. Among the dignitaries in the lower capital, who among them are not Nian cultivators…’
Gu Ruoxi secretly looked around, her heart beating slightly faster.
Although it is known that there are many mind cultivators in the lower capital, Gu Ruoxi is still a little nervous in such a dense place with mind cultivators, but she is more excited.
Suddenly, she saw a familiar figure.
"It's him..."
He was a tall and handsome young man, seven or eight tables away from her. He was having a family dinner like himself, or there was something else going on.
There are many rumors in the school about this popular figure in the third year of high school.
It is said that he was born in a family of nianxiu practitioners, and his father was a high-ranking official in the City Hall.
Although the school and himself have never talked about this, it is not difficult to guess based on his last name.
In addition to his mysterious family background, he himself is also talented. In the first semester of his third year of high school, his telekinesis value has already exceeded 90 breaths, which is not far behind even when compared to the geniuses of the upper-class capital.
Gu Ruoxi didn't have much interaction with this senior. On weekdays when she heard classmates around her at school, especially female classmates, talking about her senior like crazy, she just laughed it off and never participated.
She knew very well that the difference between her and the vast majority of her classmates was not just one or two levels, but the difference between heaven and earth. Instead of fantasizing and gossiping, it was better to be realistic.
Be yourself.
In the restaurant, Gu Ruoxi's gaze only stayed for about two seconds, and then he naturally withdrew his gaze.
She knew very well that she was able to come here to dine because of her cousin's favor.
Although his cousin Zhou Yue is great and has become the Rookie King of the Relic Academy, he is a complete genius, and these aunts and uncles all admit it.
But no matter what, my cousin is only a first-year student at Zhonglu College. For now, there is a big gap between him and the powerful practitioners in the capital or even the lower capital.
All he could do was keep a low profile and not cause trouble for his cousin.
Gu Ruoxi didn't know that just when she looked away, the handsome senior seemed to be aware of it. He seemed familiar to her and subconsciously glanced at Gu Ruoxi a few more times.
But then, he saw the young man sitting opposite Gu Ruoxi with a smile on his face.
Buzz!
His mind suddenly shook, his face suddenly changed, his eyes were dazed, and he was full of disbelief.
After a while, he came back to his senses and hurried to the middle-aged man at the same table with his back to Gu Ruoxi and whispered something.
The middle-aged man did not look back, but his body was obviously tense, and then he quietly called the restaurant manager.
…
"Yue Yue, you are spending too much money. There is really no need for such arrogance when grandma is dying. Over the years, the menu of the New Century Hotel has probably increased many times. You are practicing in the academy alone.
It’s not easy to work hard. Even though I have made a name for myself, grandma knows that the elimination rate of Legacy Academy is very high and there are many places to spend money. There is really no need to waste money on grandma.”
Zhou Yue listened to the babble of the birthday boy opposite, who was full of concern, kindness and kindness, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.
He thought he would face this small birthday banquet calmly. From ancient times to ancient times, thousands of years passed in the blink of an eye, and his state of mind also underwent huge changes in a subtle way. The past was like floating clouds, and the present was ordinary.
But when he actually sat down and entered the atmosphere of a big family he had never experienced before, he actually felt very relaxed and happy.
This made him suddenly understand that the life Taegu had gone through was just an experience. Although it would have a huge impact on him, in the final analysis, it was just an accessory to his own body.
Your self in the real world is your true self.
"Yes, Xiao Yue, uncle hasn't given you a meeting gift yet, but you gave us so much telekinesis essence first. This makes it hard for uncle to give you the meeting gift."
"Speaking of telepathy essence, Xiao Yue, you gave us too much. Although I don't know what the current market situation is, there should be more than 100,000 federal coins per bottle, right? Your beloved uncle and your uncle have both received it.
Take it all back."
"That's right, what I was about to say is that it is rare for our family to have a cultivator from the Relic Academy with an orthodox background, and he has also made such a big name. We must continue to keep it! Xiao Yue, you are the one who needs the spirit most.
Think about the essence."
When the uncle and uncle talked about something exciting, they took out the telepathy essence they carried with them and handed it back to Zhou Yue.
Zhou Yue naturally refused to accept it.
These telepathy essences were all collected from the descendants of the grandmasters in the capital before. They were all specially provided "tributes" within the Lei Neng Group, and their market price was more than hundreds of thousands of federal coins.
As Zhou Yue accumulated more and more wealth through "Teacher Yue" selling courses and robbing the Lei family, a few bottles of telepathy essence were just a drop of money for him.
But for the uncle and uncle who had suffered serious injuries and had been sleeping in the hospital bed for more than ten years, it was a "miracle medicine" that was enough to get them out of their predicament.
In desperation, Zhou Yue could only turn to his mother for help.
Mom and Dad just told grandma their identity as the Newcomer King of Legacy Academy, which had already shocked them for several days.
As for his other identity, my parents did not hide it deliberately, but...even they themselves didn't quite understand the Immortal Organization, not to mention grandma, uncle and the others, even if they told them, they would probably be confused and have no idea.
.
Zhou's mother understood, smiled and pushed the telepathy essence back for Zhou Yue.
"Okay, both of you, stop being polite to your children. And mom, don't worry, Zhou Yue still has enough money of his own."
When grandma heard this, her face suddenly became serious: "Xiaoqin, I know Yue Yue is promising now, but you parents can't just rely on your own children. It's fine if you don't subsidize it, but you can't just abuse Yue Yue like this.
Hard-earned money."
Zhou's mother was speechless after being scolded, and she looked at each other with a look of grievance on her face.
Zhou Yue's heart warmed slightly, and he felt his mother's resentful gaze, so he could only smile and said to his grandmother: "Grandma, please calm down first. Xiao Yue actually has something to do when he returns to the capital this time, and he wants to trouble grandma, uncle and uncle."
Grandma, uncle and uncle looked at each other with curiosity in their eyes.
Before they could ask questions, Zhou Yue took out the commercial drawings of Mingyue Street and the land title certificate from the travel ball, and spread them out on the table.
"Xiaoyue is in the lower-class capital and has a small industry. However, because I am not familiar with the place and cannot stay in the lower-class capital for a long time, I have been looking for someone to help manage it. In fact, it is not troublesome. It is just collecting rent. All the shops on this street are in Xiaoyue
If you can, ask your grandma, uncle, and uncle to help take care of it, and we’ll split it 50-50. But I suggest you hire someone to take care of it, and when you’re done, you can join my parents.
Go and live in Canghai Academy."
There was silence.
Except for my father and mother who already knew all this, everyone else was shocked.
Gu Ruoxi even covered her mouth and looked at the land deed, real estate certificate and the map of Mingyue Street in disbelief, looking dazed.
Mingyue Riverside is one of the prosperous areas of the lower-class capital. Housing prices have soared to 70,000 to 80,000 federal dollars per square meter. And the hundreds of shops on Mingyue Street, based on an average of 200 square meters each, add up to more than dozens.
billion federal dollars, and the annual rent alone generates an income of hundreds of millions of federal dollars.
Grandma, uncle, aunt and uncle were also dumbfounded. They really couldn't believe what Zhou Yue said, but Zhou Yue's name was clearly visible on the land deed and property certificate.
Zhou's mother said in a low voice: "What Xiaoyue said is true. His father and I have just found out. There is still some discrepancy between this boy's net worth and what everyone, including us, thinks, so don't refuse."
After a long while, Gu Ruoxi finally couldn't help but ask: "Brother, are these rewards from Heritage College? But... aren't you from Zhonglu College? Why are you rewarded with real estate in the capital?"
Zhou Yue smiled: "This is not a reward, but... well, someone else gave it to me."
Hearing this, the eyes of several people looking at Zhou Yue became complicated and strange.
Except for Gu Ruoxi, all the grandmothers, uncles and uncles have been in contact with the world of mind cultivation, and are even marginalized figures in the world of mind cultivation, and they still have some understanding of the status of mind cultivators.
Although the new king of the Relic Academy is great, it only means that he has high potential. What's more, he was born in Zhonglu Academy, which has always been looked down upon by the nuns and cultivators in the capital, but he was gifted with real estate worth billions in the capital. It's really a bit strange.
Not normal.
Could it be that...Xiao Yue has other careers?
Several people were thinking about it.
Suddenly, a huge shadow floated across the sky.
Everyone in the revolving restaurant looked up and were all shocked. They saw a giant eagle covered with golden armor. A woman in ancient robes could be vaguely seen on the eagle's back.
The giant eagle soared, its golden wings flapped, whipping up gusts of night wind, and slapped on the glass windows on the top floor, making a banging sound that instantly silenced the original music in the restaurant.
There was an uproar in the restaurant.
From the waiters to the restaurant managers to the powerful practitioners in the capital, everyone was attracted by this scene.
Most people looked surprised, while a small number of people looked excited and whispered among themselves.
"That's the Lei family's iconic spiritual pet!"
"Which Lei family?"
"Which Lei family is there? Of course the Lei family is the descendant of the great master!"
"Strange, why is that miraculous spiritual eagle just hovering in the air? It doesn't come down or fly away?"
Discussions floated to Zhou Yue's table.
Except for Zhou Yue and Zhou's father and mother, the others looked excitedly and enviously at the giant eagle flying high in the night sky, especially Gu Ruoxi, whose body was tense and her cheeks were already red.
At this moment, the middle-aged man outside Table 7 and 8 quietly walked over with the young man beside him.
In the restaurant, everyone was attracted by the giant eagle in the sky, so naturally no one noticed what happened in the corner by the window.
It wasn't until the father and son quietly walked closer, holding wine glasses, that Zhou Yue's table reacted.
"Study, senior?"
Gu Ruoxi looked at Guan Ningying who was standing respectfully in front of the table in surprise, and was a little confused for a moment.
At the same time, both grandma and aunt also recognized the middle-aged man with a smile on his face. Isn't he the big boss in charge of the capital's economy who often appears on TV and on the Internet?
Although the uncle and uncle did not know the senior official in the capital in front of them because they had been in a coma for many years, they could still detect the aura of a superior person who had been in a high position for a long time.
A few people were stunned, but Guan Jun had already raised his glass to his grandmother with a smile and said: "I wish this old birthday star to be as blessed as the East China Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains. Guan Jun, I'm sorry to bother you all, so I'll do my best first."
After saying that, Guan Jun raised his head and drank all the wine in the glass.
Guan Ningying on the side also drank the drink in her cup with a red neck.
Naturally, his palace was not as good as his father's. Ever since he came here, his fiery eyes had always been lingering on Zhou Yue.
Among his peers, although he was a dashing young genius, when facing his idol, he still lacked the calmness and calmness of a talented boy. His face turned red, he was excited and nervous, but he was dumbfounded by Gu Ruoxi who was standing aside.
The Senior Guan in front of me, who looked as if he was a primary school student who was at a loss when meeting the principal, and the aloof and influential figure in the school were simply not the same person.
Following Guan Ningying's fanatical gaze, Gu Ruoxi looked at her cousin who was drinking a drink with a plain face, and her heart was shocked.
Grandma and others also reacted at this time, and looked at Zhou Yue with increasingly strange eyes.
"Master Guan is too polite."
Grandma smiled and took a sip, but felt slightly nervous.
She naturally understood that the other party came to toast because of Zhou Yue.
Although he didn't know why his grandson had such energy and actually made the high-ranking officials in the lower-level capital lower their stature to respect her as a commoner, she also knew that she had to be steady at this time and not let her grandson lose face.
What surprised her was that instead of being dissatisfied, this high-ranking official cultivator, who was ranked among the top three in the lower capital, actually looked surprised and flattered.
