Chapter 1548 - An Honest Dialogue (1/2)
That’s not a shipwreck…
There are living people on it?!
When Lavrov left Future Building, he was still in a daze, as for what Jiang Chen said later, he could not make out the words clearly anymore. After he did his best to maintain the composure of a diplomat, he was in a daze the moment he stepped into the elevator.
He found it difficult to digest the information for the time being. The value behind this starship already exceeded his imagination and exceeded the imagination of the Russia Space Agency and the Kremlin.
“Go back to the hotel…no, go to the embassy.”
After Lavrov got into the vehicle parked downstairs, he spoke to the driver subconsciously, but quickly changed his mind. He had to report the information to the Kremlin immediately, an alien ship sleeping under Europa’s ice cap, for some reason, the name of the Baikonur Cosmodrome was printed on it
Not only that, the “alien” inside could still be alive.
“Okay, sir.”
The driver started the vehicle and entered the maglev road smoothly.
As Lavrov watched Future Building disappear from the rear-view mirror, his thoughts were slightly pulled back from that alien starship, but at this moment, he started to frown because of another issue that he could not figure out.
Future Group today…
seemed to be too generous?
His instinct told him that the matter was not that simple…
Just as Lavrov watched the Future Building disappear in the mirror, Jiang Chen, who stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the top-floor office, also watched Lavrov’s vehicle shrink to a point at the end of the highway and merge into the constant flow of traffic in Coro City.
“You want to ask me why I told him so much?”
Jiang Chen smiled, turned around, and looked at Xia Shiyu who stood at the door.
She shook her head, then smiled with her lips closed.
“You guessed wrong, I just came to ask if you want to go to the cafeteria for lunch.”
“Aren’t you curious?” Jiang Chen asked.
“I’m your woman, after all, I can guess a little bit.” Xia Shiyu rolled her eyes with a smug smile, “Or, you want me to pretend to be ignorant, humbly ask for advice, and satisfy your vanity?”
“…I find that you are getting smarter and smarter.”
“Do you want me to be smarter or more foolish?” Xia Shiyu joked.
“This is fine,” Jiang Chen said immediately without even thinking about it.
“It seems that you still have a conscience.”
With the corners of her mouth turned up, Xia Shiyu gazed at Jiang Chen. The two looked at each other affectionately for a long time, and Xia Shiyu suddenly burst out laughing. The bright smile was a March spring day beside the bank, warm but carried a hint of freshness like a spring breeze.
“Let’s have lunch together?” Xia Shiyu invited again after she combed the strands of hair beside her ear.
“Of course.” Jiang Chen nodded.
…
Lunch was still in the cafeteria on the top floor, and it was still in Jiang Chen’s favorite spot.
Ordinary employees tacitly set aside a private space for the two of them. Even if they were aware of Jiang Chen’s easy-going attitude, no one unwittingly bothered them at this time.
As usual, Xia Shiyu ordered a fruit salad and a cup of black coffee, which combined both sweet and bitter into her meal. As for Jiang Chen, there was a salmon fillet, French cheese bread, and a small bowl of creamy oyster soup in front of him. It was clear that the chef took a lot of effort in this meal. Although they were by no means complicated dishes, the aroma alone was worth Michelin three-star and the salary paid by Future Group.
