Capítulo 1518: Chapter 508: Rich Lady (Part 2)

Mokduo responded expressionlessly.

“Your excellency is wise, but can we just keep delaying like this?”

“Let’s delay for now and see.”

“Yes!”

Kafendo replied respectfully.

At this moment, a light breeze passed by, Mokduo slowly raised his head, his muddled eyes moved slightly as he spoke.

“The storm is coming.”

…

———————————–

The black hovercar returned to Long Chen’s estate and parked at the entrance of the villa.

At this moment, Long Ying stepped forward and opened the car door.

Long Chen and Su Ming got off the car.

“Grandpa, why are you back so soon? Is the matter settled?”

Long Ying asked in surprise.

“No, Mokduo is not there.”

Long Chen said deeply.

“Not there? That’s too coincidental.”

Long Ying immediately sensed something was off.

“That old fox probably doesn’t want to see me.”

“Grandpa, what should we do then?”

“Rushing won’t help, General Su Ming, you should stay and rest well. I’ll think of a way to gather some information. I’ll inform you immediately if there’s any news.”

Long Chen turned his head and spoke to Su Ming.

“Alright!”

Su Ming also knew that rushing wouldn’t be useful.

“Long Ying, take Mr. Su Ming to the guest room and arrange his accommodation.”

Long Chen instructed Long Ying.

“Yes, General Su Ming, please this way.”

Long Ying immediately led Su Ming into the villa.

…

Two days later·morning.

Long Chen, Long Ying, and Su Ming were sitting at the dining table having breakfast.

“Master Long Chen, has there been any progress?”

Su Ming asked.

“Alas, I asked a few old friends yesterday, none of them are sure if Mokduo is home, this matter might not be easy.”

Long Chen said with a sigh.

At this moment, Su Ming felt Celeste move in his pocket and intuitively said.

“Master Long Chen, staying like this doesn’t help, I plan to go out later to see if I can gather any useful information.”

“That’s fine, but you’re not familiar with Saint Joex, why not let Long Ying go with you, that way you both can keep each other company!”

Long Chen said with a smile.

“Alright.”

Su Ming initially wanted to take Celeste out for a walk, but given what Long Chen said, he had to agree.

Long Ying then stood up and said.

“Mr. Su Ming, I’ll go change my clothes.”

“Sure, I’ll wait for you outside.”

Su Ming also got up and headed outside.

Su Ming soon went outside the villa and took Celeste out of his pocket.

“Humph!”

Celeste snorted angrily.

“Oh come on, don’t be mad. I wanted to take you out for fun, but I didn’t expect Long Chen to let Long Ying accompany me, so stay in my pocket later without coming out.”

“Couldn’t you refuse!”

“That’s hard to refuse.”

“You value beauty over friendship.”

“Don’t say that, how about this, if we see something you like later, just tell me secretly, and I’ll buy it for you, okay?”

Su Ming soothed helplessly.

“That’s more like it.”

Celeste then slipped back into Su Ming’s pocket.

…

Not long after.

Long Ying changed into a sky-blue long dress, her long hair draped over her shoulders, a turquoise necklace adorned her fair neck,

Elegantly walked over.

“Mr. Su Ming, shall we go?”

“Mm!”

After glancing at her, Su Ming left the estate with Long Ying, strolling on the bustling streets.

In fact, the reason Long Chen let Long Ying and Su Ming go out to gather information wasn’t really to expect results, but to create an opportunity for Long Ying and Su Ming to spend time together.

“Miss Long Ying, where do you think we should go?”

Su Ming asked as he looked at the bustling street.

“Why don’t we take the air rail to the Starry Sky Lan commercial street, it’s one of the most famous commercial streets in Saint Joex, not far from here. Moreover, many Saint Joex nobles shop there, making it easier to gather information.”

Long Ying suggested to Su Ming.

“Mm!”

Su Ming agreed.

The two headed towards the air rail station.

Saint Joex’s air rail and other public transportation facilities are all free, and there aren’t many passengers, so the air rail trains are often empty.

Su Ming and Long Ying boarded an air rail train, sitting by the window.

The train slowly started, traveling through the air towards the distance.

Su Ming quietly watched the breathtaking scenery outside.

Long Ying glanced at Su Ming’s profile, watching him admire the scenery, her eyes shimmering.

Feeling a strange sunlight, Su Ming instinctively turned his head.

“Miss Long Ying, what are you looking at?”

Su Ming asked curiously.

“Nothing, I was just looking at the scenery, it’s really beautiful here.”

Long Ying said with a smile.

“Mm.”

Su Ming nodded.

At this point, a pleasant announcement came from the air rail train.

“Next stop, Starry Sky Lan commercial street, passengers please mind the time….”

“We’ve arrived.”

Long Ying stood up and said to Su Ming.

Su Ming then got up and followed Long Ying towards the door.

A few minutes later.

Su Ming walked out of the air rail station, arriving at Starry Sky Lan commercial street.

The entire commercial street is built using extremely expensive White Crystal Rock, and the exterior was designed by master artists, each building is distinctive and adorned with various rare plants.

Additionally, the entire commercial street is located at the edge of a disc, a waterfall cascading down from the second level, arching over the commercial street displaying an incredibly beautiful scene.

Every shop here is high-end, and even in the display windows, there’s a brand new Fourth Generation Mecha serving as a display stand, kneeling on one knee, holding a dazzling gemstone necklace in both hands.

Su Ming looked at a nearby boutique jewelry store, a promotional poster was placed at the entrance.
