Shadows of the Deep Space-Chapter 127 Rain (Additional for Alliance Leader PureRedApple) (Third Release)

Chapter 127: Chapter 127 Rain (Additional for Alliance Leader PureRedApple) (Third Release)

At that moment, Su Zhen Tian reached out and heavily patted Su Ming on the shoulder, saying to him,

"Grandson, Grandpa definitely supports you. Once you’ve saved enough money to come back home to order a Mecha, the family will give it to you at the cost price of 150 million, and you’ll be prioritized in the queue!"

Su Ming was also taken aback, not expecting this unexpected gain, but he didn’t reject Su Zhen Tian and nodded in response.

"Thank you, Grandpa."

"There’s nothing to thank among family members. Come on, let’s go drink a few more with Grandpa."

Su Zhen Tian led Su Ming out.

...

Shortly after, Su Ming and Su Zhen Tian arrived at the restaurant.

The table was already set with alcohol, and dishes were being served one after another.

Su Zhen Tian opened a bottle of pure grain liquor and poured two full glasses, handing one to Su Ming as he said,

"Here you go!"

"Alright."

Su Ming took it without any refusal.

The two clinked glasses and took a big sip, the spicy sensation rushing straight to their heads.

After drinking, Su Zhen Tian, feeling very emotional, said to Su Ming,

"Su Ming, you are much better than my foolish son. That boy has been away from home for so long and hasn’t even come to visit me."

Hearing Su Zhen Tian’s words, Su Ming inwardly exclaimed that the old man still cared for Su Yuan, so he answered,

"Grandpa, Dad misses you too. But he really is tied up with too much work at the company; he simply can’t find the time."

"Don’t give me that, you don’t need to speak well of him for me. That guy is my son, and I know him through and through."

Su Zhen Tian replied irritably.

"Heh."

Su Ming laughed awkwardly.

"Alright, let’s not talk about my foolish son anymore. Let’s drink!"

Su Zhen Tian downed the drink in his glass in one gulp.

Su Ming was so shocked that his eyes went wide, but he had no choice but to force himself to drink as well.

...

The next day, at ten o’clock in the morning,

After washing up, Su Ming walked out of his room and hurried downstairs towards the front door, ready to visit Jiang Yu at the Thunder Interstellar Heavy Industry Group.

But because he had drunk too much with his grandfather the night before, he ended up oversleeping.

By the time he reached the Su Family’s front door, the cars that had been waiting had already driven away one after another.

When Su Ming reached the front door, there was only one waiting car left, with a smart-looking young man in black shoes and a white shirt standing in front of it.

Su Ming approached and spoke,

"Please take me to the Thunder Interstellar Heavy Industry Group."

The driver, Zhu Ran, looked at Su Ming and then refused with a smile,

"Sorry, this car is reserved for young Master Su Bin, who is returning to school today."

Su Ming frowned slightly. Normally, except for the grandfather’s car, all the Su Family’s cars were meant for public use.

This guy clearly didn’t want him to use it, probably trying to curry favor with Su Bin.

However, Su Ming didn’t take it to heart and simply inquired,

"Is there another car available?"

"Sorry, there isn’t. The old master is going to discuss a big business deal today, and the elder and second young masters have gone with him. All the vehicles are in use. You’ll have to figure something out yourself, young master."

Zhu Ran said with a smile.

After hearing Zhu Ran’s words, Su Ming gave up on using the family car and took out his phone to check the location of the Thunder Interstellar Heavy Industry Group to see how to get there quickest and most economically.

He intended to visit his teacher before noon and return to school in the afternoon.

Soon, Su Ming found out that taking the rail train was the fastest. There was a rail station not far away, and he immediately walked towards the rail station.

Zhu Ran watched Su Ming’s departing figure and revealed a mocking smile.

...

Not long after,

on the high-speed rail train, Su Ming stood in the aisle, his right hand clutching a strap.

Surrounding him were crowds of passengers.

Su Ming dared not move carelessly, fearing he might bump into someone.

To be honest, it was his first time riding such a crowded rail vehicle, and the number of people getting on and off at each stop was astonishing.

"Sigh."

Su Ming sighed softly.

Just then, Su Ming suddenly felt as if someone was watching him and quickly turned to look around.

However, among the many passengers, he saw only a girl in a sky-blue lace dress with white, long hair adorned with a delicate floral hair accessory, her face turned away. He saw no one else out of the ordinary.

He then turned back and mused to himself,

"An illusion?" freёnovelkiss.com

...

Moments later, Su Ming walked out from Tide Track Station.

He checked the map on his phone; Thunder Interstellar Heavy Industry, due to its remote location, was still 1.3 kilometers away from Tide Track Station.

Su Ming then started walking towards the company, but not far along, he spotted a very high-end gift shop by the street.

Su Ming paused, looked at the gift shop for a few seconds, and then walked towards it.

Ding~ling~

As Su Ming pushed open the door, a wind chime at the entrance produced a crisp and pleasant sound.

"Welcome, sir. How may I help you today? I am the owner of the store."

A stylishly dressed middle-aged man with mousse-styled hair approached Su Ming with a smile.

"Do you have any high-end tobacco? Natural, not synthetic,"

Su Ming asked.

He remembered that Teacher Jiang Yu used to smoke, although he seldom did so in public.

Today, since it was his first visit, it seemed inappropriate to go empty-handed, buying him a gift seemed just right.

"Sir, you seem like a connoisseur. We have several varieties of cigarettes made from all-natural tobacco here, but they are quite expensive. If you are interested, I could show you."

The owner did not beat around the bush with Su Ming.

"Okay!"

Su Ming nodded nonchalantly in response.

The owner led Su Ming to a specially made glass wall inside the store strung with various styles of cigarettes.

Prices were exceedingly high, with the cheapest marked at 100,000 Federation credits and the most expensive at 1,000,000.

Su Ming glanced briefly and directly pointed to a mid-priced cigarette marked at 500,000, saying,

"This one, just a simple and low-profile package, please."

"I understand, please pay over here,"

the owner said with a smile.

...

Not long after, Su Ming left the gift shop with a paper-wrapped box in his hands.

He headed towards Thunder Interstellar Heavy Industry Group.

Just as he had walked a few hundred meters, suddenly, the entire Starlight City resounded with a solemn alert tone.

Following that, the surfaces of the countless Dorag Spheres throughout Starlight City cleared their translucent films, and white structural frameworks became highly visible.

Su Ming was slightly taken aback by this abrupt change.

Then a sweet broadcast voice was heard,

"Dear citizens, it is now the old era year 4619, July 10, 11:00 AM. Starlight City will deactivate all Dorag Sphere barriers and initiate the rainfall system to increase humidity. This rainfall is expected to last 120 minutes...."

Accompanied by the announcement, a giant transparent umbrella atop Starlight City activated its rain apparatus.

Drizzle began to fall from the sky.
