Chapter 148: Apocalypse! Ultimate Enjoyment!
Chapter 148: Apocalypse! Ultimate Enjoyment!
Alex nodded at Li Wanning and Shen Tingting, using a calm and commanding tone, he said, "Is the meal ready? I brought two old friends here for lunch; prepare some food for us."
"Yes, master!"
As soon as Alex finished speaking, the two women bowed respectfully, their attitude extremely deferential, like little lambs. They then turned to instruct the maids below to prepare lunch.
Alex turned to his cousin and sister, smiling, "Cousin, sister, let's go have lunch. It's a sudden visit today, and there's not much variety, please understand."
The two turned their heads in the direction Alex pointed, instantly mesmerized by the luxurious and noble castle in front of them!
The castle was tall and majestic, with outer walls emitting a dark and heavy metallic luster. The layout was a fusion of Chinese and European palaces, luxurious yet noble, solemn yet domineering, evoking a sense of awe.
"This... is a castle?! How... how can there be such a huge castle here? I never knew before... I didn't expect...
our Jiangcheng City to have such a luxurious castle combining Chinese and European styles... Even the palaces in England and our Forbidden City on TV don't have such grandeur and luxury!" Alex's cousin, Xiao Mu, had a face full of admiration and couldn't help but want to kneel down in worship.
Alex's sister, Tang Wanshow, expressed her fascination, saying, "This... what kind of person could own such a palace! This... it must be a figure like an emperor living inside..."
"Alex! Is this where your leaders live? Your leaders... could it be..."
In her heart, Tang Wanshow had already started speculating. In such a post-apocalyptic world, having such a city and castle, enjoying extreme luxury, and having numerous exquisite beauties under one's command, the person must either be a super VIP from before the apocalypse or a post-apocalyptic deity!
Only such individuals could possibly lead an emperor-like life in such circumstances. These people couldn't be called humans anymore; they should be referred to as gods!
In Tang Wanshow's mind, she was already worshiping the owner of this city with utmost admiration. Compared to her beloved, he seemed like a celestial being from the heavens, while her beloved was like a toad on the ground.
Facing her sister-in-law's question, Alex just smiled casually, without offering much explanation, and led the two towards the castle.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The castle's grand entrance was adorned with gemstones, with two intertwining golden dragons, radiating a sense of luxurious beauty.
The door opened slowly, revealing a massive luxurious hall. Crystal chandeliers, golden nanmu and white marble pillars, and many extremely precious decorations adorned the hall.
Even the floor was entirely made of golden nanmu solid wood.
Clean, bright, luxurious, and solemn.
Alex's cousin and sister were momentarily stunned by the sight.
In the center of the hall was a round table, entirely made of mahogany and covered with a layer of jade. Various dishes were placed on the table.
On bronze-made lampstands, candles and incense were lit, filling the entire hall with a faint scent of incense!
Most importantly, as Alex entered, all the chandeliers in the hall lit up!
The entire hall became incredibly bright!
Before the apocalypse, this might not have been considered particularly fancy with just candles.
But in this post-apocalyptic world, it was truly a breathtaking spectacle!
"What... is there electricity here?!!" Alex's cousin, Xiao Mu, was astonished and dumbfounded!
In this post-apocalyptic world, it was the first time he had seen someone using such large appliances!
Back in their shelter, using a battery was already considered luxurious! But now, in this palace-like castle, lights were everywhere!
"Cousin, sister, go wash your hands in the bathroom."
Alex pointed to the luxurious bathroom next to the hall.
Alex's cousin and sister couldn't help but swallow saliva, waking up from their shock and quickly walked into the bathroom.
What kind of bathroom was this! It was even more luxurious and clean than the bedrooms they used to live in!
Tang Wanshow opened the extremely luxurious faucet, and clean tap water flowed out gently. She reached out and touched it, instantly stunned!!
The water was warm!
In other words, the water was heated!
And!!
Tang Wanshow saw several sets of world-class, super-brand skincare and cosmetic products on the glass shelf in the bathroom!
There was Estée Lauder.
There was Chanel.
At the very least, there was POLA, a Japanese brand!
The cheapest set of skincare products here still cost several tens of thousands, while the most expensive could go up to several hundred thousand!
Such luxurious skincare products were casually placed in the bathroom for everyone to use?!
Thinking about how she had bragged to her cousin Alex about her Korean skincare products before, Tang Wanshow suddenly felt embarrassed, her face turning red. She felt like she had
lost face!
"Too extravagant! Too luxurious!" Xiao Mu exclaimed in astonishment, like a country bumpkin who had just entered the city, marveling at the layout inside!
"Is this still the post-apocalyptic world? Such indulgence, even before the apocalypse, not many people could experience it, right?!!"
Tang Wanshow looked at her husband with increasing disdain, while observing Alex sitting in his rightful position, being served tea and rinsing his mouth by several beautiful women. Her eyes were filled with admiration.
Even when she looked at the maids serving Alex, her eyes were full of envy!
Even the maids lived a hundred times better than her!
Using the best things, eating the best, wearing the best, and their daily work was just serving
her cousin...
Such a life was too good!
After washing their hands, the two came out and sat down at a position indicated by Alex.
One on the left and one on the right, right beside Alex.
Alex clapped his hands towards the kitchen and said sternly, "Bring in the dishes."
At his command, several maids dressed like servants hurriedly brought out dishes.
The dishes were placed in jade plates, covered with lids made of silver.
Just like how emperors used to dine in ancient times.
As the first dish was opened, the couple was once again shocked.
This dish, if it were before the apocalypse, wouldn't be anything special!
But now, it was the apocalypse!
Alex, actually able to eat such fresh fish!
Dish after dish was opened.
Braised pork, steak, stir-fried vegetables, cucumber, sweet and sour ribs, sauce duck...
An array of fresh home-cooked dishes!
All of them were fresh!
