The moment she passed through the portal, Liu Yao felt that her entire world view was turned upside down.
A pale yellow dome shrouded the entire city, and as far as the eye could see, the towering skyscrapers were connected together. Although there was not a trace of life in the dark windows and broken walls, one could still see how prosperous this place used to be.
"Is there an earthquake here?" Liu Yao said blankly.
"Something more serious than an earthquake has happened." Looking at the stunned Liu Yao, Jiang Chen smiled and looked at the tall buildings in the distance. "You can't tell, this is Wanghai … although it's Wanghai a century later."
Liu Yao was stunned.
A pair of beautiful eyes widened because of shock, and disbelief was written all over her face.
This … is Wanghai?
Everything in front of her was completely beyond her imagination.
It took a while for her to digest the huge amount of information. Liu Yao turned her stiff neck and looked at Jiang Chen blankly.
"In other words …"
"Yes." Jiang Chen nodded and smiled. "Most of Future Group's technology came from here, or it was developed from here. So, don't think I'm anything special … I'm just standing on the corpse of a giant. "
"Don't say that. Even if ordinary people stand on the corpse of a giant, they can't resurrect the giant." A pleasant voice came from behind. Xiaorou in a lavender dress walked to Jiang Chen's side with a smile. "If it was someone else, they might not be able to do it."
She didn't notice what Xiaorou said because Liu Yao's attention was completely taken away by this strange world. As if she was in a dream, everything here was produced from her imagination.
Looking at the soldiers not far away, Liu Yao asked blankly.
"Those people … what are they doing?"
"If it was before, they would probably be on duty, but now … they should be rehearsing." When Jiang Chen said this, his expression was slightly embarrassed.
It could only be said that his subordinates were too passionate.
After hearing that the General was going to hold a wedding, from the General's Office to the basic officers, everyone seemed to be on steroids. They were so excited that they had nowhere to vent their energy. Every day, they would be dragged out for training. It was even grander than a military parade.
"Rehearsal?" Liu Yao looked at Jiang Chen, puzzled.
"Mhmm … because of the wedding," Jiang Chen said.
Hearing the word wedding, Liu Yao felt a little down.
She opened her mouth, but in the end, she closed it again and swallowed the words that were at the tip of her tongue.
Xiaorou keenly sensed that the hesitation on Liu Yao's face was because of her. She smiled and tactfully turned around to leave.
Liu Yao said softly as she watched Xiao Rou walk away and felt the silence around them.
"You promised me one thing …"
"Yes."
"I want …" Liu Yao gently bit her lower lip. She lowered her head and said in a weak voice, "Give me a child … Don't misunderstand, that's not what I mean … I'll raise him by myself. I won't trouble you with him, I just want …"
Saying those words had exhausted all of Liu Yao's strength.
She knew that her request was unreasonable and could even be said to be unreasonable. When she said it, she was already prepared to be rejected. After all, she was very clear that her identity was merely his lover, and illegitimate children had always been accompanied by endless troubles …
"I refuse."
Although she expected him to say this, she couldn't help but burst into tears.
Liu Yao lowered her head and used her bangs to block her eyes. She suppressed the sadness in her heart and whispered with a trembling voice.
"Why?"
"Because I'm a greedy person. I can't change this bad habit," Jiang Chen sighed softly. "I have a hunch that if I agree to you, you may leave me forever …"
[Is that not good?]
Liu Yao looked at Jiang Chen with her eyes that could speak.
"Of course it's not good." Jiang Chen reached out and rubbed her hair. He gently raised her tear-stained face and stared into her misty eyes. A smirk suddenly appeared on his face. "What's more, after letting you see these secrets, do you think I'll let you go?"
Tears were like a kite with a broken string, wetting the beautiful eyelashes.
Happiness came so suddenly that it was beyond Liu Yao's expectations.
She slammed into Jiang Chen's chest, and tears rolled down her cheeks. The pair of white and neat teeth sank deep into Jiang Chen's shoulder as if she wanted to return all the pain and frustration she had suffered over the past few days.
From the choked voice, she squeezed out the intermittent words.
"You … bad person."
"Inappropriate choice of words."
Jiang Chen felt the heat rolling down his neckline and the tingling pain from his shoulder. He grinned, put his hands gently behind Liu Yao's back, and gently reminded her.
"The word 'devil' is more appropriate."
…
From the beginning of preparation to the official implementation, this wedding took more than a month.
Although Jiang Chen himself didn't intend to be extravagant, as the NAC General, it was obviously impossible for him to be low-key on this matter.
Especially Jiang Chen's subordinates, they were more worried about his wedding than he was. They had been busy since a month ago, and even renovated the Century Auditorium in downtown Wanghai, as well as the nearby streets that hadn't been renovated yet.
Before the war, this was the place where the Pan-Asia Cooperation Economic Forum held its conference, so after the outbreak of the war, this place received a lot of attention from missiles and cannons. However, the NAC engineering team only took less than half a month to renovate this place.
With such a heaven-defying construction efficiency, perhaps only the NAC engineering team could do it in the entire wasteland.
The preparation of the materials needed for the wedding ceremony was personally led by Wang Qin, the head of the logistics department.
The pearls decorating the wedding dress were transported from Outpost Town on the West Coast of North America. The diamonds on the diamond ring came from the diamond mine in the Union of Southern Africa. The red carpet was taken from the fur of the mutant blood lion. The utensils and tableware on the wedding banquet table were all made of pure silver. Even the tablecloths on the table were made of high-quality Bali yarn …
Not only that, but Wang Qin also ordered the craftsmen of the Sixth Street to use the best velvet and purple nanmu to create a bed with a width of twelve meters and matching bedding for Jiang Chen. In order to smoothly put it into the room, they even had to break it into twelve pieces and open a whole wall.
As for what this bed was used for …
Just looking at the length, it was self-evident.
Besides luxury, Jiang Chen couldn't find a more appropriate word to describe this wedding.
When he found Wang Qin and asked if this was a bit too much, he received such an answer …
"It's not an exaggeration at all. You are the NAC General. Your wedding is the wedding of the entire NAC. You are not only representing yourself, but also the entire New Pan-Asia Cooperation. " Looking at Jiang Chen who asked for her opinion, Wang Qin's mouth curved up and she blinked playfully. "What's more, without a grand wedding, how can it be worthy of your seven beautiful wives?"
