Chapter 626: Convoy
For Kassandra, managing Piltover is indeed a lucrative job, but it is also a huge test. However, if you really want to quantify it, Kassandra feels that there is no doubt that she has gotten an advantage.
Restore youth.
At the beginning, Cassandra didn't think she cared about her youth. After all, her youth was already very fulfilling and she had no regrets in her life .
The daughter is smart and a little rebellious, but she is able to find the right path in the end. She also has a harmonious relationship with her husband. Although it is hard to say that they are in love, there is undoubtedly family affection.
In addition, the family world has not only been expanded in her hands, but also become more stable. Even if they suddenly die, the family can still operate normally, but their voice in Piltover will be greatly reduced.
I have done everything I can. What I did when I was young would be the same even if I were to do it again.
So Cassandra always believed that when faced with the potion that could restore youth, she could just refuse it calmly and just give a middle finger and leave.
Of course, cosmetics and health products are still indispensable , but this does not mean that she will care particularly about youth.
However, when she herself came into contact with youth again, felt the youth returning to her body again, and restored her body to vitality——
She couldn't be sure of this matter.
With the energy of a 17-year-old, the physical fitness of a 20-year-old, the experience, status and assets of a 50-year-old, there are so many things she can do. Even with heavy official duties, Cassandra can still enjoy those things that she can no longer indulge in.
And when she realized this, she discovered something.
Piltover became easy to manage.
She wanted to laugh at those people at first, but just as she was about to speak, she thought that if it were her, as long as she earned a little less, was a little nicer to others, and was obedient, not taking any shady steps, and doing business obediently, she could stay young forever, then...
So why not?
Cassandra always knew that she would be Li Ke's living advertisement, but when she really did it herself, she found out that she was doing this living advertisement willingly, and those people knew that this was the bait given to them by Li Ke and there was a high probability that they would not get it, just like the high salaries they had promised to those workers before.
But I just can't help it.
Similarly, other people who knew about it could not resist such temptation.
Especially those women.
Those women who are used specifically for marriage.
They are very clear about one thing: their value comes from their beauty. If they are not beautiful, then although they will still have value for various reasons, there is no doubt that their treatment will decrease.
Therefore, this huge convoy was formed.
Countless beauties sat on the carriages following Cassandra's carriage. Even the coachmen were handsome men and beautiful women, and all of them were dressed gorgeously.
But even so, when the crowd occasionally saw the beautiful figure in the carriage, they would still continue to exclaim in surprise, and these exclamations would prompt more beauties to open the bed curtains first, causing more people to admire and exclaim.
Some enthusiastic beauties would wave to them, and they felt that they could become Li Ke's people, while others remained indifferent because they felt that it was a blasphemy for these common people to admire their beauty.
Others, seeing the children who were joining in the fun, did not think they could compete with the others and thought they were just the girls running with them, so they took out their desserts and candies and threw them to the children who were watching.
If the police chief hadn't urgently dispatched police forces to maintain order, this place would have become very chaotic.
Not only that, because the convoy heading to Li Ke's house was so long, many people even thought it was a luxurious parade and celebration, and also headed towards the area where Li Ke was.
Because they thought that maybe they could see the concert this way.
However, in the eyes of those who knew all this, it seemed a little too crazy.
"...I can't quite understand it. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I am still young."
Catherine shrugged and looked at her mother who was feeling safe and at a loss as to how crazy these women were to stay forever young.
"I don't mind my own aging."
Cassandra smiled without saying anything, but silently took out the mirror and handed it to her daughter.
"Look at the corner of your eye."
"What!"
Catherine was shocked for a moment, then quickly picked up the mirror to look at the corners of her eyes, and immediately discovered the thick bags under her eyes and her messy long hair.
"Damn it! I've done too much work! Damn it! I absolutely cannot stay up all night grading documents anymore! Working for more than nine hours straight is just too scary!"
Cassandra nodded in agreement, then struck a pose that highlighted her charm and looked down at her foolish daughter.
And made a mocking sound.
"Yeah, it's really bad for women's skin and body."
Cassandra's tone was quite sarcastic, which instantly reminded Catherine of those sarcastic socialites who she didn't get along with, and she shuddered.
She turned her head and looked at her mother, and was shocked to find that although her mother's work was much heavier, her mother was still full of energy and looked unusually lively and youthful.
"What!"
She suddenly pounced on her mother's side, stretched out her hand and rubbed her mother's face without any hesitation, then touched her obviously much bigger chest, and then had a dazed look on her face.
This touch, this feel! This!!
"You're crazy!"
Pushing her daughter's face and pushing her daughter away, Cassandra adjusted her clothes and looked at her daughter with a smile.
"Understood?"
Catherine sat back in her seat with a dull look in her eyes, then looked at her mother, who was younger and more beautiful than herself, and nodded silently.
"I understand."
"I understand."
Cassandra, who hadn't noticed that her daughter's hands were still shaking unconsciously, also didn't realize that Katherine had suddenly discovered something.
That is——
Why is my heart beating so fast and my face burning?
Looking at her mother's youthful, charming and mature appearance, Catherine couldn't help but touch her face, but she smelled a fragrance in her memory.
A memory from very early childhood.
To be precise, the memory of being breastfed as an infant.
Yes, in a sense.
Catherine returned to her original destiny.
