Guide to Galactic Dominance

Chapter 100 Christmas Eve

In the blink of an eye, it’s already the end of December. In the Imperial Capital, with the help of Iridium's air purification, the haze weather visible to the naked eye has disappeared, and the air quality is basically hovering between excellent. People in the Imperial City have gradually become accustomed to the scene of huge spaceships like municipal water trucks patrolling the sky. Not many people even take out their mobile phones to take pictures.

On the 24th, when businesses in the streets and alleys put up decorations such as Christmas trees and reindeer, a festival that was not considered a holiday for Chinese people filled the whole city with atmosphere. As for the connotation of this festival, Chinese people have no interest in pursuing it. All people just find an excuse to have fun, especially young men and women, who just turn this festival into another Valentine's Day.

A foreign festival has given rise to various localized customs, such as giving apples, and opening a house, which are strange, interesting, and spectacular.

As if to add some atmosphere to the day, in the afternoon and evening, some light snowflakes began to fall from the sky. By the time it got completely dark, the snow had already fallen heavily, but the temperature was not too low, and it was not bitter. With the strong north wind, the snowflakes fell slowly like feathers and spread a layer on the ground.

Even though it's not a public holiday, business in Han Jiaxue's book bar is good because of the forced holiday, which makes the young proprietress a little busy. She had a ponytail and a small apron, doing various things behind the counter. Looking at the couples coming and going, Han Jiaxue also felt a little envious. They may have to struggle for life and face all kinds of difficulties and contradictions, but they can fall in love safely and enjoy simplicity and peace.

"It's been almost a month." Han Jiaxue thought of this and became slightly distracted.

A month ago, she was still studying in San Francisco, USA. Living next to her was a senior whom she had a crush on and who also had a crush on her. Her life was very boring and boring. It's just that such a boring life came to an end after the visit of the Iridium people.

The ordinary and dull senior student became the leader of Iridium. He was also implicated and became one of the people on Earth who had the closest contact with Iridium.

I failed the final exam because the school was closed. He was sent back home in the spaceship, and now he stayed in the book bar of the imperial capital, living a different life every day. Occasionally, her boyfriend, who is the head of the Iridium Star, would send her messages and chat. He also tried to video chat with her, but the shy Han Jiaxue refused.

The number of customers in the store finally gradually decreased. The restless boys pulled the girls one by one. The fiery expressions on their faces, and the girls' shy and reluctant attitude of welcoming them, it is not difficult to imagine what these guys will do next. Where will I visit?

Even the waiter in the store came to Han Jiaxue shyly at this time: "Sister, can I get off work early?"

Han Jiaxue has always been a talkative person. She understood and let the waiter leave early, leaving her alone as the boss to close the shop. She is a girl with a gentle appearance but an extremely strong and independent heart. It is difficult for others to change her own opinions. Looking at the snowflakes falling slowly outside the glass door and the figures of couples walking by on the commercial street, Han Jiaxue also felt a little sore.

She took out her mobile phone. It was not the "plastic glass plate" Bai Zhongqi gave her, but the one she used before. I use this phone when I go out to be discreet. There was nothing on the phone screen, which made Han Jiaxue curl her lips.

When she closed the wait in the store and pulled down the rolling shutter door, there were no people on the street. The snow outside was already very thick. Han Jiaxue felt a little cold. She tightened her scarf and turned around to walk to the subway station. (BGM: "SilentNight-Port Christmas-Night": NetYI Cloud Music)

As soon as she took a step, she saw a man wearing a long coat standing there under the streetlight outside the store with a little snowflakes on his head. He had a smile on his face and looked a little silly holding a gift box wrapped in bright wrapping paper.

Han Jiaxue shook her head, walked over, swept the snowflakes on his head with her small hands wearing woolen gloves, and said reproachfully: "Why don't you go in when you are here?"

Bai Zhongqi said with a smile: "I just arrived, I'm afraid I'll make the floor of your store dirty again, you still need to clean it."

Han Jiaxue rolled her eyes at him and said, "I won't send any messages either."

Bai Zhongqi smiled: "I want to give you a surprise."

Like an excited child, he held the gift in both hands and flashed it in front of Han Jiaxue's eyes, seeming to show off a bit.

"Let's take it apart and take a look."

Han Jiaxue glanced at him with a pair of soft eyes, lowered her head, and took off the gloves on her hands. She reached out and touched the hands holding the box. They were different from the coldness she had imagined. Those hands were warm, and actually warmer than her own hands.

With a smile, she removed the wrapping paper from the box.

Inside the box is something like a crystal ball. The base is inlaid with gems of different colors. There is a light source emitting from below, and the crystal ball is decorated with colorful colors through the gems.

In the center of the crystal ball was a flower that Han Jiaxue had never seen before. It was crystal clear, like ice and snow, and shimmered with charming colors under the light of gems. Each of its petals is extremely beautiful, stretching like a beauty dancing. The petals sway in the light one after another, which is so beautiful.

Bai Zhongqi smiled and said: "This is a real life, a plant from a distant ice and snow planet called Yao Xuejia, but it is not the plants we usually see that perform photosynthesis. Its body is a It is composed of silicon compounds and contains a large amount of light signals. On your own planet, every time a new Yaoxuehua is formed, the nearby Yaoxuehua will transmit the light signal into it, causing it to form a completely different form from carbon. Silicon-based organisms. Although we still cannot understand the meaning of its life and other mysteries, it is a very beautiful life, isn't it?"

Han Jiaxue's eyes were intoxicated with Yao Xueyuan dancing in the light, and she couldn't help but said: "This is really incredible. What would a planet full of such wonderful flowers look like?"

Bai Zhongqi shook her hand and said, "There are countless other planets with all kinds of magical dreams. If you want, I can take them to see them one by one."

Han Jiaxue looked at him with a sly smile and said, "Would you like to take your little boat that can see the stars?"

Bai Zhongqi laughed and said cheerfully: "Yes, I can build many, many small boats and float along the Milky Way to far away places..."
