Chapter 7

Even in Asgard, the capital of the Galactic Empire, the night in February was a bit chilly. Lin Jian followed Granshire out of Brachi, and was immediately chilled by a gust of cool evening wind.

Seeing Lin Jian trembling, Granshire frowned, and turned to look at Tiano who sent the two out of the door. This guy was dressed very warmly, wearing a big shawl like a woman .

So Lin Jian saw Granciel smiling brightly at Tiano, reached out and pulled off his shawl, "I will return it to you tomorrow." While speaking, she put the shawl on Lin Jian.

Lin Jian got in the car and casually looked out of the car window, but saw Tiano's expression was a little dazed.

"What's wrong with him?" Lin Jian turned to look at Granshire who was debugging the route.

Hearing this, Granshaar looked up at the window, made a gesture of "go in" to Tiano, started the car, then looked at Lin Jian, raised his eyebrows: "it's adults' business, children don't Ask more."

Lin Jian rolled his eyes.

On the night of February, the sky was clear, and we could clearly see the Milky Way hanging in the sky like a long belt in the distance. The stars emitted light of different intensities, covering the Milky Way in a thin halo. .

Lin Jian tilted her head and looked out the window, seriously thinking about whether she had ever seen such a beautiful scene on Earth.

The answer should be no, so she is really living in a completely strange world at this time.

Here, the car can drive into the sky, along the transparent wind tunnel, completely without human driving.

It's really not 01:30 when technology has advanced.

Human beings can already travel in the universe, and they have moved the battlefield to such a vast world.At this moment, is her brother Lin Mo standing on the bridge of the battleship, looking at the bright starry sky outside?

"What are you thinking about?"

Granshire's voice came from his ear, and his voice sounded a little different.

Lin Jian turned to look at him in slight surprise. The latter put his arms on the window frame, propped his head, and tilted his head to look at her.There was no expression on his face.Since the first time I saw him, he always had a smile on his face. It was a little surprising that he was expressionless like this, or in other words, with a faint dazed expression.

"Thinking about what it's like in the universe."

"You, haven't you ever left Asgard?" After hearing Lin Jian's words, Granshire was a little surprised.

"I don't really remember." Lin Jian smiled, did he lose his memory?

"..."

The conversation was not smooth, Granshire's mood was really strange, and Lin Jian was also a little confused.

Just in a blink of an eye, she remembered that Granshire was the eldest son of the Nolan family, why was the second son Qisia, who was not loved at all, and not him?
What's more, in this country where soldiers are worshiped infinitely, why didn't Granshire, as a nobleman, follow the trend to join the army or go into politics?Why is he willing to be an off-duty doctor, and even came to be her tutor?

Compared with her brothers and sisters, he is really idle.

However, it seemed that she was still a little unfamiliar with Granshire, Lin Jian was in a cautious character, and there was some hesitation and doubt.

But before she finished hesitating, Nolan's house arrived.

The car parked steadily on the lawn, as if a helicopter had landed. A parking boy had already come to the side, and after seeing the car clearly, he shouted in surprise: "Master Gran! You're back."

"Good evening, Daron." Granshire returned to his usual smile, got out of the car, and opened the car door for Lin Jian who was a bit stiff, "Here we are, my princess."

Lin Jian got out of the car a little stiffly, the cold air made her wake up a lot.

She was slightly nervous, and a small pimple appeared on her shoulders that were exposed in the air. She didn't know whether it was caused by the cold wind or because of her nervousness, so she shivered involuntarily.

"Nervous?" Granshire threw the car keys to the parking boy, and turned around to see Lin Jian wince.

"It's okay." Lin Jian lowered his head, but felt a heat in his hand.The person next to her held her hand, which was dry and warm.Lin Jian felt that the heat was transferred to her body all at once, miraculously, the trembling that she wanted to restrain just now stopped.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Jian straightened up and turned to look at Granshire.

"Smile." The bright lights of the Earl's Mansion reflected in Granshire's eyes, making his water-blue eyes dyed with a golden halo.

Lin Jian looked at him looking down at her, and felt the power from his hands, and the power was getting stronger.She suddenly understood that this person was also unwilling to come here. It must be because of her that he came here today.

Thinking of this, Lin Jian closed his eyes.

Granshire stared fixedly at Lin Jian, watched her slowly open her eyes, and after she opened them again, those black pool-like pupils were suddenly infiltrated with a layer of flowing brilliance.The flowing eyes made her whole body change instantly.

After a slight hesitation, Granshire took a closer look. She straightened her spine, her eyes were firm and calm, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she looked at herself with a half-smile expression.He even felt that her hand was tightened and squeezed back, although it was still cool.

He shrugged and curled his arms.

The smile on Lin Jian's face widened a bit, and he took Granshire's arm, and the two walked towards the bright lights.

When the two arrived, a lot of people had already gathered in the hall of the Earl's house, and the real clothes and temples were shining brightly.The chandeliers on the dome emit soft lights, and the band plays soft music.

Standing at the door, Lin Jian saw the real main venue, which was in the back garden, and could be seen through the hall.

The arrival of Granshire made the earl's butler very excited. Lin Jian felt a little joy in his heart when he saw that he was about to burst into tears after being stunned. This reminded him of his butler's standard format attitude.I feel a little sad.

Stepping up the steps step by step, Lin Jian could feel that the surrounding noise gradually diminished with the arrival of the two of them. I don't know if it was an illusion, but Lin Jian even felt that the whole hall was silent for a while. .

Why is this? Lin Jian was a little surprised, and finally didn't know whose whisper broke the vacuum until it turned into a whisper.

Lin Jian looked around with an indifferent smile, purely looking at her eyes, but everyone who met her eyes lowered their heads hastily.Seeing their eyes collide with him but suddenly defeated, and then looked up at her unwillingly, with all kinds of emotions, nothing more than contempt, ridicule, everyone seemed to be watching the scene with a hint of malice Feeling.

"If I didn't really not remember where I offended them, I would really think that I was thinking too much, and I was a guilty conscience."

"You care?" Granshire's voice sounded flat.

"Of course, why not?" Seeing Granshire's disbelieving gaze, Lin Jian smiled: "At least it means that I have a sense of presence. Although I don't really enjoy this feeling."

While talking, while looking at these brightly dressed men and women, Lin Jian found that there were quite a few men wearing military uniforms. "Is your family related to the military?" Lin Jian didn't know much about the high-level people of the Galactic Empire.

"The Nolan family is a hereditary aristocrat with a history of a hundred years. Of course, it has its own fleet. Since it has its own military power, how can it be completely isolated from the military world?" Granshire picked up a glass of wine from the waiter's tray. , After thinking about it, I brought Lin Jian another cup.

Lin Jian was really surprised when he heard that the capital star, under the emperor's feet, the nobles actually had their own military power.Is this consistent with a centralized society?Unconsciously taking the glass from Granshire, Lin Jian took a small sip, which was surprisingly clear.Lin Jian was about to ask about the privileges of nobles, but from the corner of his eye, he felt a strong gaze from not far away.

Although she had been chatting with Granshire all the time, Lin Jian still paid some attention to the gazes from around her. After those women realized that they didn't pay any attention to them, they gradually lost interest. With this gaze, it was like a gamma knife, cold and entangled endlessly.

Lin Jian searched for this woman's information in her mind, she looked familiar, so she probably had some impressions.

At this time, a woman walked over with a wine glass, holding another woman by the hand.

"Serena, congratulations!" Amidst the whispers, Lin Jian heard these words clearly.

"Thank you, Diane."

"I heard that you had a car accident before. Are you okay? You know that I have been on Dolan Star before, and I just came back these few days."

"I'm fine, Zisia has protected me very well."

"That's really enviable, haha."

"I heard it was an accident caused by someone deliberately crashing a car."

"Really, oh, God Odin, how can there be such a terrible person."

"Why not? Isn't she standing there?"

"Okay, don't talk about these unpleasant things, I hope you have a good time, I'm going to find Qisia now, the time is almost up."

Serena glanced at Lin Jian before she stood up, without any contempt in her eyes, the entanglement gesture just now had long since disappeared, and before leaving the hall, she even smiled at Lin Jian.

And after she left, those women still got together.

Lin Jian saw that the small circle was getting bigger and bigger, and the women had already started discussing her unscrupulously.Even some men gathered together in twos and threes, and glanced at her from time to time.

It's just that, compared to the women's outright disdainful gazes, Lin Jian hates the probing and interested gazes of those men even more.Lin Jian sighed.

Granshire glanced at her.

"Sometimes I think, man, it's cuter to talk less."

"Actually, it's the same with women." Granshire smiled.

It was said that the banquet was to celebrate Earl Nolan's birthday, but because the Earl was not on Aschet at this time, everyone knew that the protagonists tonight were the second son of the Earl's family, Zisia, and the youngest daughter of the Duke's family, Seth. Lina.Tonight's engagement banquet is the theme.

At this moment, there was some noise at the door again, Lin Jian turned his head to look, and a man in military uniform strode in, as if Lin Jian had just entered the door, the noise disappeared instantly, and the scene was once again a vacuum.

The man had long silver hair, rippling behind him like mercury, and light gray eyes, as beautiful as inorganic matter.He is tall and straight, a little bit thin, but there is a smile on the corner of his mouth that doesn't reach his eyes.

"Oh, God, isn't that Colonel Fallainen? He's here today, too."

Lin Jian heard a girl screaming in a low voice not far away.

Even Granshire looked over in surprise.

"Who is that?" Lin Jian asked softly.

"Colonel Fallining Huywood, who belongs to the First Fleet, is the Zhili of the Minister of Military Affairs." Granshall replied, without taking his eyes off the man, "He is the one who is most likely to break your brother's 28-year-old qualifications and become a major general." Military records."

"How old is he?" Lin Jian pouted.

"25 years old." Granshire thought for a while, and his tone was a little sour. "Basically, everyone thinks that within three years, he will definitely be promoted to major general."

"It sounds like you don't like him very much." Lin Jian raised her eyebrows.

"Oh? You can tell." Granshire smiled, "I really don't like him very much."

"May I ask why?"

"Okay, but I won't answer."

Lin Jian choked for the second time in one night.

However, although Student Grant didn't like this guy very much, his arrival finally attracted everyone's attention. Lin Jian heaved a sigh of relief and looked at everyone's eyes with interest. The eyes turned into admiration, and the eyes of the men turned into jealous disdain.

Looking around, Lin Jian tsk-tsk: "Sure enough, whether it's a man or a woman, when facing someone who has more things than themselves, they will always maliciously guess the dark side of others."

"Perhaps, this is probably human nature." Granshire nodded, but then changed the topic: "However, there are indeed some unfavorable messages circulating in the military."

Lin Jian turned to look at Granshire in surprise.But at this moment the hall suddenly fell silent.

As the music in the hall changed, even the people in the garden gathered. Tonight's theme was about to begin. Lin Jian saw a person walking into the hall from the garden. He was wearing a decent black dress and gold Under the bright lights of the hall, her short hair exudes a dazzling brilliance.

This is... Zisia?
