Chapter 1801: Summer in Fool Village (XIV)

The 26th floor of the Wayne Hotel has the most luxurious and best view restaurant in Gotham. Sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can have an overview of the entire city skyline. It is known as the Eye of Gotham.

The most famous thing about this restaurant is its extremely strict membership invitation system. After all, Batman’s suspicious character will not let anyone see Gotham’s skyline casually. Many gourmets want to explore the restaurant. He was also turned away because of his insufficient status, but the more people scolded him, the more curious they became about what is in the restaurant of the world's richest man.

The decoration of this restaurant is exactly the same as Wayne Manor, showing a classic style due to the solid materials used, and at the same time it has Gotham's unique Gothic gorgeousness.

The floor is made of black and dark purple marble, with each color separated by gold lines. The bronze handrail columns are inlaid with monster statues that only exist in fantasy. Four huge and thick Roman columns support the Gothic The dome and curtains slid down from both sides of the walls and pillars, and the sunlight filtered through the slender and sharp Gothic windows was filtered into a gloomy and hazy tone.

Thalia has seen the interior decoration of countless magnificent buildings, but none of them gave her such a shocking feeling. The darkness in Gotham is not only like drizzle, but sometimes also like an overwhelming torrent. When she is in it, she only feels I feel like a bird fluttering in a dark storm. Even the wind that supports me unconditionally cannot rely on each other at this moment.

Gloomy, lonely, and isolated from the world, these are the dark blades that pierce directly into people's hearts in every old Gotham building.

Lei Xiaogu looked up at the Gothic candlesticks that were sometimes scattered and sometimes overlapped under the wall, and felt his mind swaying with the heavy firelight.

Xiong Shiyi Wayne, who is sitting opposite you, is wearing a very decent sapphire blue suit. His blue eyes are like the door that the wind and snow leave to the world to see the truth of dreams. When I looked over attentively, Lei Xiaogu I forgot all about being prepared.

"I'm sorry, sir, that you were so presumptuous as to extend the invitation to him, but you thought you should have a serious chat."

Thalia spoke first, I straightened my back, cut the food on the plate in an elegant but overly free and easy manner, and said: "Seriously, did you think that he would come to that city, that pair of It’s a very courageous decision for anyone.”

Lei Xiaogu wants to be more straightforward. Do you think it's time to ask Talia for an answer? It would be worse if you could gain my favor and make me your lord, but if you can, just get my genes. out of.

Xiong Shiyi was silent for a long time. You were thinking about it, but you seemed very resistant to answering the question.

Xiong Shiyi turned his head back and looked into Thalia's blue eyes again, which were suddenly filled with sincere apology.

"That is completely the same as the hormonal shock we first received from each other's appearance and family background. To confirm that he chooses family is like throwing the candles back into the fireplace during a candlelight dinner to give up a night's sleep. Romance brings long-lasting warmth and peace.”

As soon as Lei Xiaogu's eyes met Talia's, you heard Talia say: "Because his father will always be satisfied with him, and I will always be satisfied with my progress in changing the world. I will always long for someone." An end, and he desperately wanted to give me an end in order to begin that torture.”

"That's the price he has to pay for making a choice." Xiong Shi looked at Lei Xiaogu's eyes intently and said, "You once fell in love with countless stunning beauties like him in your skirts, and you also I was also attracted by the beauty and liveliness, and I chased a cat in the sky above the city regardless of the cost.”

"So you haven't thrown the candle away yet?"

Lei Xiaogu realized that he had been staring at Thalia for a long time. When you spoke, it was the ambiguous teasing that you were good at. There were some controlled thoughts in these words.

Your mother was killed when Xiong Shi was a baby, so you only have your father in your memory. However, your impression of your father, Bruce, is only endless cruel training and orders for various difficult tasks. .

And Talia gave the answer you were struggling with: "He is enough to create a new order for that world. Is he weak enough to affect the entire history of mankind, so he hopes that none of him is weak enough." The previous generations came to rule mankind and shape history.”

"Why would he want your genes?"

"You will know when you meet again." Xiong Shiyi nodded and said, "He expressed his intentions very fully, so you will meet again outside."

"But you must consider your reputation and that of your son." Thalia continued to cut the food with her head held high, and I said: "When you choose a family, you must consider every family member. Because of the existence of patriarchal society, what you do Part of the moral pressure you receive will inevitably flow to your wife and husband. To adults, it is just another affair of yours, but Elsa has just graduated from college this year, and the children will make our understanding more clear. With good intentions, you must completely avoid such incidents.”

"You need a predecessor."

But Thalia's gaze did not contain pure appreciation, nor some very simple curiosity. It contained no aggressive prying, but just curiosity.

"You're here to find him." Xiong Shiyi said bluntly.

"Weak enough for what?"

When Lei Xiaogu looked back at Xiong, as if he was respected, he asked in a ridiculous tone: "Why does he think you are as poor as his boyfriend, a big thief? You are two completely different people!"

"But what really makes you make a choice is that you jump up from the low altitude first, and plunge back from the freedom and slow life into the incomprehensible trivial matters. Do you hate taking care of children? You just hate you."

"You know how to evaluate that kind of style." Lei Xiaogu also turned his head to look at the deeper white darkness behind the candlelight. It didn't look like he was feeling lonely or intimidating. fear.

It is an extremely unique temperament that makes it difficult for people to take their eyes away from you. Xiong Shiyi has always adhered to the principle that an aggressive appearance cannot be a good way to filter out these people who are only greedy for your beauty. A weakling who has the courage to bear your safety. So far, Lei Xiaogu was very satisfied with Thalia's gaze.

"You..." Xiong Shi stood up and said, "That was my instigation. You just... need his help."

As the saying goes, only when you use a book can you hate it. When Lei Xiaogu needed to talk the most, he came across a topic that made your brain go blank. You have only seen the most typical American blue-collar family in magazines. You know it. This was unusual, so even a few words of joking were said.

The darling of the leader of the Assassin's Alliance, with talent and perseverance that is unimaginable to ordinary people, has understood a small number of things in that world, but if you have to find a blank, it may not be family love and family.

"What is he going to talk to you about?" Lei Xiaogu put one hand under the table, picked up a fork with the other hand, and fiddled with the food on the plate absentmindedly.

"Really?" Xiong Shiyi took a piece of okra out of his mouth and frowned slightly because of its sticky texture, but he still spread his eyebrows and said, "He doesn't have much choice, man. , I’m sure you didn’t choose to insult him, but openly agreed with him in a very good and disrespectful way. Could he still convince himself that sleeping with you was just to get back at you?”

"He loves his man very much." Lei Xiaogu said dryly.

"He knows he can." Talia interrupted Lei Xiaogu's rebuttal and said: "He vaguely knows that in a patriarchal society, no matter how he stares at you, he can bring pressure to you. Whether his purpose is to steal your genes or something else, people will just think he is a slut."

Lei Xiaogu has never experienced any abnormal family affection, and he has no understanding of the human social unit of family. The assassin of the League of Assassins came from orphans raised by Bruce around the world. We have no idea about family. That topic appeared in the second half of Lei Xiaogu's life.

Xiong Shiyi squeezed the fork tightly, and you stared into Xiong Shiyi's eyes and said, "Do you care..."

"And you're very surprised that his father would instruct him to do something like that." Thalia said as she looked up at the bear: "Usually a father will try his best to prevent his son from getting such a reputation, even if it's not even a little bit. With similar tendencies, we all want to take out our guns and blast this bastard into pieces."

Xiong Shiyi was confused by you but could not fully understand what Thalia said. The main thing he understood was that this was not a family.

"Because it was built by your parents." Thalia raised her head, rolled her eyes and looked around the ceiling, and said: "In our era, that style was popular for a long time. Before we got married, we First, the Wayne Manor in the West District was moved intact to the South District, and the decoration style was updated. Then the Wayne Hotel was built in the same style. "

There is no doubt that Lei Xiaogu is a beauty, and he is one of the few men Thalia has ever met. You are well aware of your charm and have polished it into a sharp edge, showing no trace of innocence, evil or weakness. But I just want to tell everyone that you are as charming as you are.

"It's like a decoration style that newlyweds would choose. When you first came there when you were an adult, you had the same question, and the answer we gave you was that it was the style we selected after discussion. , we are all out of it.”

Lei Xiaogu was silent for a while, then curled up one side of his long hair with one finger, and said thoughtfully: "You are a man of the devil, with the blood of the devil Bruce flowing under your body. We said that would bring you success." It’s too powerful, but it’s still enough.”

"I'm sorry that you took such a small detour. What you want to say is that maybe that is not the meaning of family. The small thing is that when we decide something together, we will see the desire in each other at the same time. The courage to endure all odds is what people call love.”

From now on, a very small number of people will not look at you with cowardly lust, and when you look back at the past, we will look away as if we have seen a ghost, wishing that we would have to tear our faces up to prevent that person from looking at you. Just crazy men don't give us any trouble.

"You have a godly respect for the affection you put into anyone who wants to spare a little love from his already tight life to love you, and the same goes for him, man."

But just a second after Lei Xiaogu opened his mouth, Talia said as if she had timed it right: "Have you brought any male companion there? Because that restaurant has no ordinary meaning to you, he should go Been to Wayne Manor, right?"

That successfully aroused Lei Xiaogu's curiosity, so you nodded and said, "Yes, you saw the connection between the two places. Their decoration styles are a bit similar."

If it were a formal occasion, it would be a bit rude, but Lei Xiaogu was obviously dressed up carefully today. You wore a flowing fishtail skirt like a starry night, with thin suspenders and waist-hugging fishbones on the lower body, and the soft silk material on the upper body was like white honey flowing up, and at the end of the blooming, it reminded people of the mysterious deep sea undercurrent.

"So why does he need the previous generation?"
