Chapter 289 Shopping

"Is this... still Beloberg? This..." Bronya's voice was full of shock and disbelief. Before her eyes was a completely new picture, completely different from the Beloberg in her memory.

Last night, due to the cover of darkness, she did not have the chance to see the view outside the window, and her room happened to be the only one that could see the outside.

However, in the past three days, Bronya almost used her desk as her bed. She was so devoted to her work that she almost forgot about the outside world.

But...Bronya has been sleeping on her desk for the past three days.

If Xi'er hadn't come, I'm afraid...

The reason why Bronya works so hard is to protect this city and to ensure the safety of every resident. However, this kind of sacrifice and dedication is often ignored or even forgotten.

Because people tend to only care about the results, the process...is not important.

Bronya stood on the street, looking at everything in front of her, and was shocked beyond words. "This change is too big, how could Beloberg become like this?" Her words were full of disbelief. In such a short period of time, the city had undergone earth-shaking changes.

"Only three days...this..." Bronya's voice was full of disbelief, and her eyes revealed a deep shock.

In her mind, three days did not seem to be enough time for a city to undergo such earth-shaking changes, but the scene before her forced her to re-examine this concept.

"There are a lot of vendors...and the company has a lot of spaceships and personnel..." Bronya said softly, with a hint of surprise in her words.

She looked at the busy vendors, who were hawking their wares enthusiastically, attracting passers-by. She watched the companies' spacecraft take off and land, bringing in waves of new faces and injecting new vitality into the city. All of this told her that Beloberg was recovering and prospering at an astonishing speed.

"Let's eat first, okay? I want to take it slow." Bronya said to Seele. There was a hint of fatigue in her voice, but more of it was the appreciation for life.

After several days of high-intensity work, she longed for a moment of peace and to enjoy this rare leisure time with Xier.

"Of course, what do you want to eat? It's my treat~" Seele patted her waist, which was bulging, as if to say that no matter what Bronya wanted, she would do her best to satisfy it.

So, the two of them walked into a cozy little restaurant, which was filled with tempting aromas and had warm paintings hanging on the walls.

"I've never seen it. Is it newly built?" Bronya asked.

"I think so. I haven't been here either." Xier shook her head, indicating that she didn't know.

The two looked at the menu and Bronya took a fancy to a dish.

"I want to try the signature dish here. Looking at the pictures, it looks like it tastes really good." Bronya said.

"Well, I think it's good too."

"Boss? Are you there?" Xier tapped the table lightly, her movements gentle and rhythmic.

However, Bronya whispered, "Seele, what if you break the table?" There was a hint of worry in her words, fearing that Seele's actions would cause unnecessary trouble.

"Don't worry, this table is made of celestial crystal stone. This girl doesn't seem to be very strong, so just knock it casually. She won't be asked to pay for it even if it breaks." A man's voice came from the front desk, his words full of confidence and humor.

Then, a man came out from the front desk with a smile in his eyes. "Excuse me, what can I do for you two?" the man asked Bronya and Seele.

"Ah... that... signature dish..." Bronya pushed the menu up and pointed at the dishes on it.

"You want two...right?" the boss asked, with a hint of understanding in his eyes.

"Yeah." Bronya nodded, a satisfied smile on her face.

"Boss, I have another question." Bronya looked at him, her eyes full of curiosity.

"Please speak." After hearing Bronya's words, the boss stopped what he was doing and waited patiently for her question.

"How long have you run this store?" Bronya asked curiously, her words full of curiosity about this restaurant.

"How long has it been open?" The boss was also confused, but then he understood what Bronya wanted to ask.

"Oh...~ the exact time... should be just twenty minutes ago, right?" said the boss. His answer surprised the two.

"Twenty minutes?!" the two exclaimed at the same time, their eyes full of disbelief.

To them, the restaurant seemed to be deeply rooted in the city and had become a part of it.

"Well... maybe you understood it wrongly. I'm not talking about the business hours... I'm talking about how long it has been since this house was built." Bronya explained again, her words full of patience.

"How long? Are you locals?" When the boss heard Bronya's doubts, he immediately understood what she meant.

"Actually... there is a prop that can store some things." He explained.

"I put this house into that compressed space and brought it here." The boss continued to explain. His words seemed to unveil a mysterious veil, making the two of them suddenly realize.

"So that's how it is..." Bronya also understood after hearing the explanation, and her eyes revealed a look of sudden enlightenment.

In just three days, Beloberg's transformation was achieved thanks to that prop.

...

After dinner, Bronya and Seele started a relaxing and enjoyable shopping trip.

They first went shopping in the nearby stores. Although they did not go into every store, they would buy something in each store, as if they were leaving a series of footprints on this journey.

Fortunately, the currency here is Dongcheng Coin, not Alliance credit points. Otherwise, the millions of credit points that Lin Yu left behind might not be enough.

As time passed, night came quietly and the day ended quickly.

Bronya and Seele came to the last shop, which was a clothing store with soft lighting and models in the window wearing a variety of clothes.

"You don't need to buy more clothes, right? I actually have a lot of clothes." Bronya said, with a hint of hesitation in her voice, as if she was wondering if she really needed to buy more clothes.

"Do you have clothes to wear privately? I saw your closet this morning, and it was full of work clothes..." Xier said, with a hint of concern in her words.

In her opinion, although Bronya's work clothes were capable, they seemed to lack some feminine softness and personality.

"Actually... I really like to see Bronya wearing a skirt." Seele said to Bronya.

Bronya looked shy when she heard this.

"Skirt...? I... can't do that, right?" Bronya shook her head.

"You can give it a try." Xier said seriously.

"Skirt..Let me try it on..."

In the end, Bronya chose a light blue dress.

When she walked out of the fitting room wearing the dress, Seele's eyes lit up and she marveled at Bronya's beauty.

With every step Bronya took, the hem of her skirt seemed to dance with her steps.

"Bronya, you are so beautiful."

"Ah... I'm so shy..." Bronya's face flushed, her hands on the edge of her skirt, looking a little at a loss.

While the two were choosing skirts, deep in Yongdong Ridge.

A block of ice is quietly breaking.
