Chapter 7: The Unseen
ike you're working when you're out here." Zhang Hai directly turned his gun towards Luo Chen, ready to start giving him a hard time."The company has a task here that we hope you can complete. Of cours...Zhang Xiaoman also thought Lu Chen was a little stingy, but she still changed the subject.
"Let me accompany you to find a hotel and rest for a while." Zhang Xiaoman said.
"Xiaoman, you're back." Zhang Xiaoman's mother coldly called out to Zhang Xiaoman.
And when Zhang Xiaoman saw that Lu Chen didn't react, she finally chose to go back and didn't follow Lu Chen.
Looking at Luochin leaving alone, Zhang Xiaoman couldn't bear it. After all, Luochin was unfamiliar with the place and came to Tongzhou to find her. Where would he stay tonight
But with a sigh at last, Zhang Xiaoman, you should just give up.
He's really not from the same world as you!
After Lu Chen left, Zhang Xiaoman's mother immediately frowned, picked up the bags of tea leaves, and didn't keep them. Instead, she threw them out the window.
"Let him sleep on the streets tonight."
"How many bags of tea Shameful!"
"Xiao Man, it's not your mother saying this, but that surname Luo is simply not worthy of you. Your mother has been there and done that. Listen to your mother's advice and break up with him sooner rather than later."
"A person like him will never amount to anything in his lifetime." Zhang Xiaoman's mother always looked down on Luo Chen, and with Chen Chao chasing after her daughter, Luo Chen was not even a speck of dust compared to Chen Chao.
"Mom, these are just things young people do. You should say less, alright" Zhang Daguang couldn't listen to it anymore.
"What's a young person's business"
"Little Man, can you see Your old mother was soft-hearted and married your father, this coward. I thought he was truly kind to me back then, but now, Mom regrets it. Back then, she was blind, following this useless man and suffering so much"
"Little Man, you must not repeat the same mistakes your mother made."
"Marry me and you'll regret it" Zhang Daguang also got angry.
Seeing the two arguing, Zhang Xiaoman angrily went back to her room, slammed the door shut, and didn't come out.
But she didn't blame her parents, instead there was a hint of blame directed at Lu Chen.
Don't you want to spend some money to bring something nice
How many bags of tea leaves
To think, it's embarrassing! My boyfriend Zhang Xiaoman's first time coming to my home, he only brought a few bags of tea
Zhang Xiaoman even felt a little ashamed.
Actually, Luochen did bring quite a few valuables with him. However, after Luochen woke up on the train, he decided that he wouldn't give any of those things to this family.
Going out the door, being unfamiliar with the surroundings is indeed more troublesome.
But at this time, Luochin's phone rang.
"Hello, teacher, where are you"
"Okay, I'll pick you up right now. Grandpa had me book a presidential suite for you at the Haishang Mingyue Hotel."
The seafront is illuminated by the bright moon. The Hyatt Regency, considered the best five-star hotel in Tongzhou, boasts a presidential suite that reportedly costs nearly 30,000 yuan per night - a price far beyond the reach of ordinary people.
Tongzhou is an extremely prosperous city, especially at night. With neon lights and a constant stream of vehicles and pedestrians, it's always bustling.
Actually, Lu Chen still felt a bit wistful. A thousand years of cultivating immortality, a thousand years of scheming and warfare across the lands, now he was suddenly in this bustling and peaceful city. This made Lu Chen feel extremely out of place.
Just like a battle-hardened tiger suddenly arrives in a flock of defenseless sheep, it might even make the tiger feel slightly stunned and out of place.
Unconsciously licking his lips, Luo Chen flashed a sinister smile. "Hmph, mortal, this is the first city that will be trampled under my feet."
At the corner of a crossroads, Luochin stopped with his luggage. Although Luochin was an Immortal Venerable, he did not show any trace of that aura at this moment. Instead, he looked like an unassuming student who had just graduated from school. Coupled with Luochin's attire, he appeared more like a villager who had come to the city for the first time.
At this time, a taxi passing by honked its horn and stopped in front of Luo Chen.
The car window rolled down, revealing a man in his forties. The driver beckoned and said, "Hey kid, want a ride"
Luo Chen shook his head. He was waiting for Ye Shuangshuang here, and it seemed like the other party had arrived.
"Hmph, bah, poor guy." After hearing Luochin's refusal, the driver immediately changed his face and cursed, full of contempt. Then he mumbled a few more curses and drove away. In his eyes, this bumpkin probably didn't have money, so he wasn't willing to take a taxi.
"Get lost, you have no money, what are you coming into the city for!" He looked down on these poor people the most.
He had only just started walking, maybe ten meters away, when the driver saw through his rearview mirror a yellow Ferrari slowly pulling into the spot he had just vacated.
Then, to the driver's astonished expression, the simpleton he thought he was actually got into the car.
"Teacher, that person just now, do you want him" Ye Shuangshuang had obviously been nearby and seen the whole thing.
Of course, Ye Shuangshuang wouldn't stand for it. After all, she wasn't someone who was easy to get along with. To put it bluntly, there might be some people in Tongzhou that she didn't dare to provoke, but ordinary people She really had no fear of them.
But Luo Chen shook his head, seemingly not intending to hold a grudge. However, a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth as he looked at the taxi in front.
This isn't because Luochin is magnanimous. Actually, although Luochin is a revered Immortal Venerable, he can sometimes be easily angered. Of course, one could also say it's because, as an Immortal Venerable, his dignity cannot be challenged at times.
But Luo Chen didn't intend to scold his driver for that remark, because he saw a very interesting scene.
"Uncle, can you give me a ride"
The taxi driver was still watching in the rearview mirror at that Lamborghini, when suddenly a voice popped out from the side and startled the driver.
The driver took a closer look and saw that it was a long-haired woman in a red dress standing by her car.
The driver was naturally delighted to have a customer at this late hour, but this woman in her red dress seemed a little frightening. However, after seeing the woman's face, the driver suddenly gave a suggestive smile and let her into his car.
At this moment, Ye Shuangshuang was driving at a high speed past the taxi.
And Luochin's playful expression grew more and more pronounced.
"What's wrong with the teacher" Ye Shuangshuang was a little curious about Luo Chen's expression.
"Have you noticed that taxi" Luo Chen didn't explain, but instead asked.
"Huh" Ye Shuangshuang was taken aback. In fact, she had been paying attention the whole time, even memorizing the license plate of that car.
"Passengers." Luochen reminded again.
Upon being reminded by Luo Chen, Ye Shuangshuang also suddenly remembered that the taxi's display screen originally showed "empty car". Only when there were real passengers inside would the driver change "empty car" to "occupied".
However, it was strange. Ye Shuangshuang could be certain that she had just passed by and noticed the car. There was no one else on the car besides the driver, but the driver changed the empty car display on the screen to “passengers”.
The driver changed the display to show a passenger even though there was clearly no one in the car.
"He's dying soon." Luo Chen suddenly spoke.
"Ah" Ye Shuangshuang was taken aback.
"This world is vast and wondrous, filled with things beyond the comprehension of ordinary people. There will come a day when you will see them." Luochen gazed towards the eastern part of Tongzhou city.
When Ye Shuangshuang heard Luochen's words, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable all over her body, and almost had goosebumps. Could there really be someone in the car
Is it just because I can't see
Who is in that car
...and then get off the taxi.
"Beauty, where are you going"
"Pan Long Bay!"
"Panlong Bay" The driver slammed on the accelerator and started the car, but after hearing the address "Panlong Bay," the driver felt something was off.this day. As I pointed the gun at his head, he cried out for his mother while his eyes were filled with helpless despair. 。Allen seemed to be enjoying himself and reminiscing. 。If you can infiltrate a...
