Shen Chen took it and smiled:
"Don't worry, father."
Shen Fei said again:
"The Shangguan family has fully surrendered to our Shen family. So far, all the top families in the imperial capital have joined the Free Parliament Alliance and become our Shen family's right-hand men. They will continue to consolidate our rule in the Eastern Capital."
"Yes."
Shen Chen nodded.
As top families, they all have considerable energy and heritage. Most of them were buried in the imperial capital in their previous lives, which is indeed a great loss to the human world.
With their joining and surrender in this life, the development speed of the Free City will rise to another level.
"The Shangguan family also gave you a gift."
"Oh? A gift."
Shen Chen was surprised and then suddenly saw a black car driving to the gate of the house.
The car door was slowly opened and a figure walked down.
The moment he saw her face, Shen Chen pulled the corner of his mouth——
"Father, don't tell me that the gift from the Shangguan family is... Shangguan Changyu..."
"I'm leaving first."
Shen Fei said indifferently, turned around and walked away with his followers.
Only Shen Chen and Shangguan Changyu were left staring at each other in the golden afterglow of the setting sun.
"Shen Chen?"
After a few breaths of silence, Shangguan Changyu broke the silence first.
Shen Chen: "?"
"I'm going to take a shower first."
Shen Chen: "???"
......
The gift is Shangguan Changyu, is this a surprise or a shock?
Although Shen Chen did think about prying her to his side since his rebirth, he didn't expect this to be the case.
Is he familiar with Shangguan Changyu?
That's hard to say.
In the previous life, they were both the top ten awakeners of mankind, but the number of times they met was pitiful, and the opportunities for communication were even more rare.
The Shangguan family was destroyed in the imperial capital. As one of the few Shangguan family members who escaped, Shangguan Changyu's experience can be regarded as legendary.
The owner of the S-level domain ability Frost Moon, one of the top ten awakeners of mankind, has entered the "Gap of Time" three times and escaped unscathed, and is the most representative figure among the lone rangers of the doomsday.
After the doomsday, his reputation and popularity can be said to be only inferior to Shen Chen.
Coincidentally, before the doomsday, Shangguan Changyu was also suppressed by him.
The two entered the Imperial Capital University in the same year, and one ranked first and the other ranked second in the admission scores.
After that, no matter what kind of test, competition, scientific research, or coordination, Shen Chen's comprehensive quality was always better than hers.
Of course, it was only one level. Compared with the other proud children of heaven, Shangguan Changyu was also an existence that could not be looked up to.
The two had similar abilities, similar backgrounds, and their looks were both the peak of the imperial capital. Rumors about the two had never stopped since they were in school.
Most people think that even if the two are not in love, they must be rivals and friends who appreciate each other.
However, only Shen Chen knows that he and Shangguan Changyu are really not familiar with each other.
Shangguan Changyu has a cold and indifferent temperament, while he has a noble and aloof personality.
Neither of them has ever thought of actively making friends with each other.
However, after the apocalypse, Shen Chen, as the controller of the Free City and the leader of a super power, has matured a lot and has taken the initiative to talk to her.
Every time, Shen Chen would suppress the urge to invite her to join the Free City.
Because he knew the previous rumors, several super powers had asked her, and the promised rewards and prices even surprised Shen Chen.
In the end, no one responded.
The two really didn't have much friendship, and even the number of times they met was also very few.
The first meeting after the apocalypse was in the "gap of time" in the destroyed imperial capital.
......
"Would you like some tea?"
Shen Chen handed her a cup of excellent tea.
Shangguan Changyu took a sip and nodded lightly.
Outside the window, night had fallen, and in the silence, there were only a few bird calls.
"What are you doing here?"
Shen Chen pretended not to know and asked casually.
"To be your concubine, or toy? Plaything? Forbidden delicacy?"
Shangguan Changyu suddenly said "Oh"-
"Oh, it depends on you."
The answer was so fast that it seemed like he didn't think about it. Shen Chen suppressed the urge to cough up the tea and glanced at Shangguan Changyu out of the corner of his eye.
She had a cold expression and indifferent eyes.
"After all, it's the end of the world. If a beautiful woman lives too well, wouldn't it make the end of the world look very shameful?"
Shen Chen stared at her for three seconds, and suddenly laughed out loud-
"You deliberately used this plain and teasing tone to tell your tragic fate, just to use the contrast effect to arouse my sympathy, so as to increase the probability of being treated well by me, Shangguan Changyu, why are you still scheming at this time?"
"Well, yes, but I didn't think it would succeed with you.""Here you go again, taking advantage of people's rebellious psychology? But unfortunately, I hate this the most..."
Shen Chen suddenly approached Shangguan Changyu, and his breath made her body stiffen.
The tone of command rang in her ears——
"Close your eyes."
Shangguan Changyu closed her eyes, her face remained calm, but her eyelashes were trembling slightly.
What's next?
Kiss? Or caress?
Or even more impatient...
For the first time, Shangguan Changyu's heart began to beat uncontrollably fast.
......
Six months after the doomsday.
The situation is still a bit chaotic, but it has stabilized a lot compared to the beginning of the doomsday.
The imperial capital, once the most prosperous city in the empire, is now reduced to ruins. In addition to the thick black fog that is as thick as sand, there are roaring bloodthirsty monsters wandering around.
The city, which once had a population of more than 70 million, was almost deserted within half a year. Occasionally, you can see the decayed old imperial buildings or corpses and skulls that have not disappeared.
Shen Chen met Shangguan Changyu at the old site of Shangguan's family. She was holding a few boxes of ashes, with a cold and indifferent look, walking slowly in the black fog.
At least in Shen Chen's opinion, she seemed to be unchanged from before the end of the world.
If you insist on saying it's different, the ice-blue mysterious light that occasionally emanates from her body makes Shen Chen stunned.
In just half a year, she has become a second-level awakener?
Judging from her energy intensity, it is not even much weaker than his.
"Shen Chen?"
It seemed that she was a little surprised to see a living person in the cracks of the forbidden area.
Shen Chen approached and chatted with her for a few words, telling her that he was here to search for some information and data about the forbidden area.
Shangguan Changyu pointed him in the direction and told him a lot of news about this place.
"It seems that you seem to be very familiar with this place?"
Shangguan Changyu raised the ashes in his hand.
"Here, this is my father's, this is my uncle's, and there are some other things. I want to take them out. Can you take a little more time?"
Shen Chen didn't ask any more questions. He thanked her and left quickly.
Well, it was their first meeting, and he really didn't want to invite her to join the Free City.
......
"Changyu, in two days, you can go to Dongdu with my father and others."
Shangguan Changyu suddenly opened her eyes and found that Shen Chen was sitting far away. If it weren't for the burning breath, she would have suspected that it was hallucination.
"Changyu?"
Shangguan Changyu didn't skip it and stared at Shen Chen.
This name...?
"Yeah."
Shen Chen hummed lightly without explanation, and then walked straight into his bedroom.
Shangguan Changyu was a little confused. For a moment, he didn't know what he should do. Should he go in with him...?
First, he stood up for three seconds, and when he was about to take a step, he paused and sat down quietly.
Well, she was overthinking.
The door was locked.
