Chapter 1582 Unpredictable

New York, Grand Central Station.

Li Zitao was carrying a big box in each hand, and Aiden was in the same state as him.

Mary wore an off-white Victoria afternoon tea hat, holding Pearl in her arms, like a traveling lady.

Li Zitao and Aiden in front are like attendants carrying her luggage... very handsome attendants.

"Flander, just send it here, we'll be back in two weeks." Seeing the butler still following behind, Mary smiled and said to him.

"Yes, ma'am, I will take care of everything at home." Farandi said with a stiff bow, "I wish you a pleasant journey."

"Mary, honey, we're going to be late." Looking at the time on the ticket, Li Zitao had to urge her to hurry up.

This trip seemed a bit rushed and hectic.

Thanks to Aiden for his suggestion, to be an ordinary person, to travel as a family like an ordinary family, and to send him to Durham for a relaxing journey.

But in fact, the experience of moving luggage and being crowded with people is not pleasant at all.

This reminded him of the tragedy of being squeezed into meat pies in the Spring Festival Transport Army in his previous life and being 'carried' away like goods on a conveyor belt.

Fortunately, I didn't have to endure for a long time. After I found my own compartment and put all my luggage on the luggage rack, the journey became interesting again.

They bought a luxury car, the seats inside were very spaced, the seats were very comfortable, there was a small bar offering various drinks and snacks, and there were not many people.

It's just that he looked at Li Zitao more, and he was used to it.

At least he didn't see a 'whites only' sign in the car, but he already expected that the journey would not be all pleasant.

Because before arriving in Durham, they need to make two layovers.

The last layover was in a standard southern city, and just thinking about him shows how bad it could be.

"Hi, I'm Barber, hello." As soon as he sat down, the man across the aisle greeted him friendly.

"Hi Barber, I'm Charlie, and this is my wife, Mary, son Aiden and daughter Pearl." Li Zitao introduced his family to the other party.

"Hi, hello." Barbour waved his hand, looked at Pearl and praised, "You are such a beautiful little angel."

"Thank you." Pearl said in a ladylike manner while holding the skirt with her hand.

Barbour is very talkative, he can talk about astronomy, geography, ethnic customs, and some historical contradictions and secrets among the aborigines.

"You have been to the Yellow Springs Avenue." Aiden was curious about some of the expeditions he mentioned: "Is there really no one in that ancient city? Who built them?"

"I don't know." Barber shook his head and said mysteriously; "No one knows who created them."

"Some say it's ancient people, some say it's aliens, and some say they appeared out of thin air, but there's no evidence."

Barber said seriously; "If you are interested, maybe you should find an opportunity to see it for yourself. They can cleanse your soul and give you something to gain."

"I will." Aiden was interested in these mysteries.

Staying curious, staying in awe, and staying vigilant are the criteria for him to progress and even evolve.

"Train travel is a good idea, look at these scenery!" Mary hugged her daughter and admired the scenery outside.

In Li Zitao's eyes, it was just a wilderness of yellow sand, but in their eyes it was very interesting.

Compared with the ancient city and aliens he mentioned, Li Zitao is more interested in another thing: "Mr. Barber, have you ever been to the Far East?"

"Yes, Mr. Charlie." Barber said proudly, "I have been to the Far East three times, and went deep into Devil City."

"It's an ancient country full of charm, very mysterious, and Devil City is a veritable place of hell."

"Believe me, as long as you have been there once, you don't want to go there again." Barber said with lingering fear.

That experience made him almost die. If he hadn't met a shepherd, he wouldn't have the opportunity to appear here now.

"But there is always a longing in your heart,

Is it right? " Li Zitao said firmly.

"Yes, I often think of that encounter, and I think it will affect my life."

The conversation went on for a long time, and Mary listened quietly.

It wasn't until Barber said he was going to have a drink and left that she suddenly said, "Don't you want to talk?"

"You know, I don't like to talk too much about things like that."

"Death is not heavy, it is a part of nature, the cycle and continuation of life."

Li Zitao looked at her in surprise, and asked with a smile, "You went to class again."

These years, Mary has often been exposed to some metaphysics, Buddhism and the like, and this tone does not seem to be what she said normally.

Mary smiled and said, "Only once in a while...it cleanses my mind and makes me more peaceful."

"Okay!" Li Zitao shrugged helplessly, "You know, she's left alone... only herself."

He was very worried about Ariel's state, whether it was her psychology or her life.

"Is there anything I can do?" Mary hesitated, wondering if she should meddle in this matter.

But she couldn't bear to think that she was the only one left in this world, living alone, facing all kinds of difficulties and threats.

Li Zitao asked uncertainly; "Is it possible?"

"Of course, if you and she can accept it." Mary's tone gradually became firm.

Ariel is just a 14-year-old child. Without her mother, her father cannot always be by her side. Kindness makes her no choice.

"I want to take care of her until she can be independent and have her own life." Li Zitao said with flickering eyes: "There is also Vegas."

"You have to leave it to Ariel." Mary said as if she guessed it.

Li Zitao nodded seriously: "Yes, I promise her that I will take good care of her."

Mary fell silent, and Li Zitao also became a little uneasy. He didn't know whether his wife could accept this decision.

"Have you thought about how to explain it to the children?" Mary didn't express her opinion in the end, she didn't know how to deal with a 14-year-old child.

If Xu Man was still there, she wouldn't expose it so easily, but facing Ariel...

"I will talk to Aiden in person, I hope he can understand!" Li Zitao said with a wry smile.

The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of flesh, and it is difficult to make a decision when faced with a choice.

But he has to choose, because no one can help him in such matters.

Mary looked at him emphatically, "How many times are you going to let this happen?"

In the case of Lilith, she had already made concessions, and Ariel also chose to turn a blind eye.

But if there is another time, she doesn't think she can bear it.

Whether it's for herself or her children, she can't let things get worse.

Li Zitao solemnly promised: "If there are no accidents, I think this is the last time."

If it wasn't for Xu Man's sudden death, there wouldn't be any changes in Vegas, and it would be merged into the family business and handed over to Aiden.

To this, Li Zitao can only say that the world is unpredictable, and who can imagine what will happen tomorrow.
