From doomsday survival to fast-forward daily life

The central area of ​​Silver Moon City is probably where the middle class lives. The houses here look newer and larger, and there are even single-family Western-style buildings. The roads along the streets are neat and clean, with extremely exquisite greenery.

From time to time, Tian Yu saw men in suits or well-dressed women boarding the steam trains on the roadside.

Most of the roadside shops have bright glass, and you can see the neatly arranged goods inside through the windows.

All in all, the living conditions in the central city seem to be much better than those in the downtown area, and even the patrolling guards seem more polite than those in the downtown area.

The security check to enter the upper city area is the most stringent. Tian Yu was carrying a weapon and was interrogated for this. The driver took out the documents he had prepared long ago and handed them to the guard, who let him go only after seeing the contents.

The coachman drove the carriage towards the center of the inner city until it stopped in front of a carved gate. While the other party was reporting, Tian Yu looked at the building in front of him.

This is an extremely exquisite manor. The entire manor is mainly white. The gate alone looks to have cost a lot of money. Now is the season when flowers are in full bloom, and red roses are climbing all over the outer walls.

After a while, the coachman drove the carriage again and brought Tian Yu into the gate.

The interior of the manor is full of flowers and the floor tiles are neatly arranged. Through the flowers, you can glimpse some very artistic sculptures located in between. At the entrance of the main building of the manor, there is a large fountain with flowing music. At this time, the coachman invited Tian Yu to get off the car.

Tian Yu straightened his clothes and felt that his behavior had become a little more cautious in such a place.

The maid respectfully led Tian Yu into the house. Tian Yu quietly looked at the interior decoration and felt that the owner must be extremely particular about it. She thought this must be Vivian's home.

When Tian Yu was led to a big door, the maid said softly, "Your Highness has been waiting for you in the study for a long time."

Tian Yu nodded to the other party and then pushed open the door.

Vivian was sitting in front of a floor-to-ceiling window. She sat dignifiedly on a soft chair, her fingers crossed, muttering something constantly, and seemed a little nervous.

Tian Yu couldn't see her expression clearly because of the light, so he called out, "Vivian?"

Vivian seemed to be lost in some thought. When she heard Tian Yu's voice, she stood up suddenly, her hands seemingly not knowing where to put them. She stood there a little timidly, then hardened her heart and ran towards Tian Yu quickly.

She rushed to Tian Yu and said anxiously, "I'm sorry, Anna, I didn't mean to leave you in the cell for so long. You are my most important friend, and I am not such a treacherous person. I wanted to take you out many times, but..."

Vivian explained very quickly, and Tian Yu finally understood why she looked a little awkward. This noble lady had been feeling guilty.

"Okay! Okay!" Tian Yu interrupted her helplessly, "Of course I know, I have never blamed you."

Tian Yu allowed Vivian to check if there were any signs of torture on her body. This might make the little girl feel more at ease. After a thorough examination of Tian Yu, Vivian finally breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that they really didn't do anything unfair to you."

"Yeah, they also gave me trauma medicine."

Weiwei took Tian Yu's hand and sat down beside the desk: "Welcome to the Duke of Silver Moon's Mansion."

Then she placed all the snacks on the table in front of Tian Yu as if presenting treasures, looking at her with sparkling eyes.

Tian Yu picked up a piece of cake and put it in his mouth: "Delicious!"

Vivian laughed and said eagerly, "This is my favorite! Try this one too!"

This reminded Tian Yu of her favorite game of playing house when she was a child. When she played the role of a mother, she always liked to urge her "children" to try this and that.

"I can't eat anymore, Your Highness." Tian Yu stroked her stomach helplessly and spoke in the tone of a maid.

"You can't call me Your Highness!" Vivian was a little anxious.

"We are best friends!" Her tone sounded a little aggrieved.

"I was just joking, Vivian." Tian Yu could hardly hold back his laughter at her angry look.

"Next I want to show you around. My parents said they want to have dinner with you. What do you think, Sir Knight?"

"Your parents?" Tian Yu was a little surprised.

"Yes, they are very interested in you, and I told them a lot about you." Vivian asked Tian Yu for his opinion.

"Ok."

The specifications of the Duke's Mansion are far more luxurious than Tian Yu had imagined. Vivian's father is the current Duke of Silver Moon. He is the brother of the city lord and his status is second only to the city lord. He has great power in the Silver Moon City Council.

How could such a powerful family allow their only daughter to be attacked outside for such a long time without any communication? Tian Yu was a little confused.

That evening, when the maid came to inform them that dinner was about to begin, Tian Yu felt a little nervous. This was the first time she had met a big shot other than Vivian.

Tian Yu and Vivian walked into the restaurant. The Duke and his wife were waiting there. Tian Yu took a quick glance, perhaps worried that she would feel nervous. This was just a dinner for four people. It was not as serious as imagined. Instead, they had a round table that could bring them closer together.

Under the guidance of the butler, Tian Yu sat next to the Duchess, with Vivian on her right and the Duke opposite her.

Tian Yu was a little embarrassed. She wondered if she had forgotten to greet him. Just as she was about to stand up, the Duchess patted her arm kindly and said, "This is a family dinner. Forget about the etiquette."

"Okay, ma'am." Tian Yu had no choice but to sit down again.

"Your name is Anna?" the Duchess inquired.

"Yes, I'm from the Tower of Light. I've received twelve years of knight training. My teacher is Sir Victor." Tian Yu introduced himself quickly.

"Okay, kid, don't be too nervous." The Duchess looked at Tian Yu and smiled.

The butler began to give orders for the table to be served.

The Duke, who had been silent, raised his glass and saluted in Anna's direction: "Before the meal, I want to thank you for everything you have done for Vivian."

Tian Yu also raised his glass in response.

In fact, the Duke and Duchess were not as serious as Tian Yu had imagined, at least that was the case for this meal. The chef in the Duke's Mansion was top-notch, and Tian Yu didn't know how long it had been since he had eaten such good food.

After dinner, the Duke and Duchess spent time with Tian Yu and Vivian, and the other party mysteriously pulled Tian Yu towards her room.

Looking at the pile of golden coins on the ground, as well as the various scrolls and weapons next to them, Tian Yu's eyes widened: "I got rich?"
