Global Card Master: Start Awakening the Classic of Mountains and Seas

Chapter 289 Childhood Dream
The next morning, Jiang Ming got up and made breakfast.

Overlooking the entire Dongping City from the floor-to-ceiling windows, the hustle and bustle of traffic and people coming and going below is still full of life.

People in the world don't know about the BOSS's divine eyes.

There is no way the old man would say that.

The end of the Arctic expedition is the time to boost morale and hope for people around the world.

Releasing the news of the God's Eye at this time will only cause everyone to panic again.

Da Da Da~
Jiang Ming turned around and looked at Shen Meng: "Are you up?"

"Well, I accidentally fell asleep yesterday."

Shen Meng felt a little embarrassed seeing this.

After working hard for more than ten hours in the dungeon, I was frozen when I came out, so it was normal to fall asleep.

Jiang Ming raised his chin and pointed to the breakfast on the table.

"Go wash up quickly, then you can eat."

"Good~"

After Shen Meng turned around to wash up, Jiang Ming's eyes returned to the chat box in front of him.

He was chatting with Lucifer.

Although they gathered in a copy last time, in reality, Lucifer had already returned to the Meli District.

"God?"

"Well, I'll come back and take a look. I don't know if the rumors are true or not."

"Didn't the Federation send anyone over there?"

Early in the morning, Lucifer told him that a resurrected figure who looked like God Jesus had been resurrected, and asked him to wait for good news.

After all, if this is true, then the combat power is definitely at the first-tier level.

Facing God’s eyes, the more strength we have, the more hope we have.

"I am not?"

In response to Jiang Ming's question, Lucifer gave a somewhat confusing reply.

"Oh, yes."

Jiang Ming still doesn't know how the old man convinced Lucifer to let him join the federal agency.
Add to that the gold-level combat power hidden by the old man, as well as Xidai and the others. Maybe we don't need to be so pessimistic.

"What are our plans for today, Captain~"

Shen Meng behind him had already sat down and started eating breakfast, and asked by the way.

"No, just take a rest these few days. What are your plans?" Jiang Ming held the teacup and turned to look at her.

"I have a plan, but will you listen to me today?"

Shen Meng's eyes suddenly lit up.

Looking at her expectant eyes, Jiang Ming nodded reluctantly.
"I think it's possible."

----

"So, why are we here?"

Jiang Ming looked seriously and attentively at the magnificent clothing hall in front of him, with rows of ironed black straight suits placed on both sides.

The huge chandelier with dazzling glass shines brilliantly even in the daytime, illuminating the room.

The bright, spotless dark black tiles can reflect people's shadows.

Several good-looking women, dressed appropriately and with a gentle and professional attitude, stand beside every customer who comes and introduce each suit in detail and gently.

Jiang Ming was completely unfamiliar with the brand of suits. Although worldly money was readily available to him after becoming a card master, he was not interested in it at all.

In Jiang Ming's opinion, this should be a store that only rich people would visit.

At this moment, he was standing at the door of such a luxurious ready-made suit store.

"So, why are we here?"

Since Shen Meng was driving on the way here, Jiang Ming followed her in fear the whole time. Since he didn't know her purpose, he asked her again.

"Since you promised me that you would listen to me today, don't ask so many questions~"

Shen Meng said casually and parked the car.

"Let's go!"

After getting out of the car, Jiang Ming had a blank expression on his face, but Shen Meng was full of fighting spirit. She pulled Jiang Ming into the suit shop where any suit starts at 20,000 yuan.

Jiang Ming transformed into a ruthless machine and followed him into the suit shop.

As soon as he entered the door, Jiang Ming was stunned by the luxurious decoration inside.

In his two lives, he thought he had seen many luxuriously decorated buildings.

Before the Steel City project was launched, Jiang Ming thought that the buildings in the Federation were luxurious enough. He did not expect that there would be something even more powerful in this Steel City.

Wherever you look, you see golden splendor.

The decoration inside the store is extremely luxurious, and every detail reveals refinement and sophistication.

On the high ceiling, the giant crystal chandelier is like a bright star, emitting dazzling light even in the daytime, illuminating the entire space.

The walls were covered with dark gold wallpaper with exquisite patterns, and the floor was paved with dark black marble tiles that were so shiny that you could see through them, and the seams between the tiles were almost invisible.

The central area is a huge display stand with various suits on display, each of which looks like a carefully crafted work of art. The fabric of the suits shines softly under the light, and the colors range from classic black and dark blue to bolder wine red and dark green, each exuding a unique charm.

There is also a huge mirror behind the display stand. The frame of the mirror is carved with complex patterns, adding a touch of retro charm.

Jiang Ming's eyes moved slowly around the store. Such luxury was too unfamiliar to him.

"Welcome, sir or madam. How can I help you?" A female clerk in uniform came over with a smile, her voice gentle and polite.

Jiang Ming came back to his senses. He glanced at Shen Meng and saw that she was choosing a suit with great interest. He turned to the clerk and said, "Let's take a look first. Thank you."

"Okay, if you need anything, please feel free to call me." The clerk smiled and stepped aside.

Shen Meng picked up a dark blue suit and compared it to Jiang Ming: "Brother Ming, how about this one?"

Jiang Ming walked over. He had to admit that the suit was tailored to fit him perfectly and the color matched his skin tone. He nodded: "Not bad."

Shen Meng's eyes lit up, and she handed the suit to the clerk: "Please help me get a suitable size."

The clerk took the suit and said with a smile, "OK, please wait a moment."

Jiang Ming looked at Shen Meng, somewhat puzzled: "Why did you bring me here today?"

Shen Meng smiled mysteriously: "You will know later."

The clerk quickly came back with the right size. Shen Meng took the suit and pulled Jiang Ming to the fitting room: "Let's go and try it on."

Jiang Ming was a little helpless, but he still walked into the fitting room.

He took off his coat and put on the suit that Shen Meng picked for him. The fabric of the suit was very soft and very comfortable to wear.

After changing, I walked out of the fitting room, stood in front of the mirror, and looked at myself in the mirror.

Shen Meng stood behind him, with a satisfied look in her eyes: "Brother Ming, you look really good in a suit."

Jiang Ming looked at himself in the mirror and had to admit that his whole temperament changed after putting on the suit.

In the past, I just bought clothes randomly and put them on at random, rarely caring about my appearance.

"How is it, not bad, right?" Shen Meng asked proudly.

Jiang Ming nodded: "It's really good."

Shen Meng smiled: "That's good."

Jiang Ming was a little confused: "You brought me here today just to buy me a suit?" They usually fight, and it's very uncomfortable to wear this thing, and they can't stretch at all.

Although these materials are comfortable, they are likely to be torn apart in combat.

Shen Meng shook her head: "Of course not, this is just the beginning."

Jiang Ming became even more curious: "What's next?"

Shen Meng didn't answer. She pushed him back to change his clothes, then asked the clerk to pack the clothes, and then pulled Jiang Ming out of the suit shop: "Let's go to the next place."

Jiang Ming followed Shen Meng out of the suit shop and walked on the streets of the Steel City, surrounded by towering skyscrapers and a constant stream of people.

"Ahem, seriously?"

Looking at the plaque of [Dongping Amusement Park], Jiang Ming's mouth twitched slightly.

"listen to me!"

Shen Meng carefully pulled Jiang Ming towards the door.

The entrance to the amusement park is a huge arch decorated with colorful neon lights and various cartoon characters.

Jiang Ming stood at the door, looking at the rotating carousels, the towering Ferris wheel, and the screaming people, feeling a little dazed.

It seems like I haven’t been to a place like this for many years.

Shen Meng bought two passes and took Jiang Ming into the amusement park. She said, "You play whatever I play today. Don't discuss anything else. Just enjoy yourself."

They first came to the roller coaster, a giant steel dragon that coiled and soared into the sky.

Shen Meng excitedly pulled Jiang Ming to sit on it. The roller coaster started and the speed became faster and faster. The wind whistled in his ears. After Jiang Ming turned off his card master's sense ability, his heartbeat also accelerated. He felt a long-lost excitement that he had never felt in battle.

The roller coaster reached its highest point and then dropped rapidly. Both of them couldn't help but shout out loud as they experienced the long-lost feeling of weightlessness.

Shen Meng took Jiang Ming to try every project in the amusement park. When they were tired, they sat on a bench by the roadside, eating ice cream and watching the children playing by the fountain.

"How is it? Does it feel good?" Shen Meng asked while eating ice cream.

Jiang Ming nodded: "It's really good."

Shen Meng smiled: "There is one last place in the evening."

Coming out of the amusement park.

A luxury car stopped by the roadside.

Shen Meng extended her hand toward Jiang Ming.

"Let's go~"

Jiang Ming had completely accepted his fate. He shook his head and laughed before getting into the car.

The car finally stopped at Dongping Hotel.

This hotel is the second largest in Dongping City. It is a private property and is second only to Dongping Guobin.

After entering, Jiang Ming found out that a charity auction was being held here, and there would be a masked ball after the dinner.

Shen Meng brought Jiang Ming to the top floor.

Each person received a mask, and no one knew when Shen Meng arranged the invitations.

Then they went back to their hotel rooms to change clothes before reuniting at the door.

Jiang Ming was wearing the suit that Shen Meng bought for him today.

Shen Meng was wearing a red evening gown, the hem of her skirt swaying gently with her steps, like a ball of fire dancing in the banquet hall.

The banquet hall was decorated with delicate flowers and elegant candlesticks. Soft lights sprinkled on every round table, reflecting the smiling faces of the guests.

The melodious music floats in the air, adding a touch of romance to the night.

"Should we donate?" Jiang Ming asked Shen Meng in a low voice.

Shen Meng blinked mischievously and replied: "Guess~"

They found their seats in the center of the banquet hall. The table was set with exquisite tableware and fresh flowers, and in front of each guest was an exquisite menu.

As the dinner officially began, the guests began to communicate with each other.

Although Jiang Ming and Shen Meng were wearing masks, their young figures naturally attracted a lot of people's attention. After all, those who could come here tonight were either rich or noble.

However, Jiang Ming took the initiative to block them all.

As the charity auction began, people shouted out disproportionately high prices for the cards above.

Jiang Ming also called out two more, the important thing is to participate.

Wait until the auction is over.

The masked ball officially began. Jiang Ming and Shen Meng sat at the round table. The dishes in front of them had been removed and replaced by glasses of shimmering champagne. Shen Meng took a sip, then turned to Jiang Ming and extended her hand to him.

Jiang Ming hesitated, "I can't dance."

Shen Meng didn't say anything, but just kept extending her hand.

Helplessly, Jiang Ming stood up and followed Shen Meng into the dance floor.

Shen Meng smiled and put her hand in Jiang Ming's, and the two walked towards the dance floor together.

In the center of the dance floor, a huge crystal chandelier emits a soft light, enveloping the entire dance floor in a dreamy light and shadow.

The band began to play a waltz and the guests stepped onto the dance floor, spinning and dancing to the rhythm of the music.

Jiang Ming really can't dance, but fortunately Shen Meng has been teaching him.

Relying on the learning ability of the card master and his physical fitness, Jiang Ming quickly mastered some basics, and at least he would not step on Shen Meng's high heels.

“My parents were very good to me when I was a child.”

As Jiang Ming began to master the rhythm, Shen Meng almost pressed her whole body against Jiang Ming and began to whisper.

"Including other relatives, they all treat me like their own daughter."

"It just so happened that when I was a kid I was reading a book about Snow White."

"So since then I have dreamed of dancing with my dream prince charming when I grow up."

"Do you think my dream is childish?"

Having said that, Shen Meng looked up at Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming shook his head.

When they were young, many boys dreamed of buying a real sword when they grew up and going back to the grassland to become the Sword God of Shilipo.

This little dream is not very normal for girls.

"Later, I awakened my ability as a nanny. At that time, my whole family was proud of me and thought I would be the hope of the family."

"But before I had the chance to grow up, all my family members died because of my ability. At that time, I really felt that I was a disaster."

"Fortunately, I met you later."

"Although you rarely maintain the team atmosphere, no matter what happens, you will always stand in front of us"

Just like that, Jiang Ming listened to Shen Meng speaking softly.

Until the music stops.

Shen Mengcai finally said something in a muffled voice.

"Thank you for making my childhood dream come true. You really don't think it's too childish, do you?"

Jiang Ming smiled, wiped away the tears from Shen Meng's eyes, and shook his head.

"Won't."
