Hearing that Ning was coming, Radja was overjoyed and personally arranged high-end accommodation for Ning and his subordinates.

In the evening, the reception banquet was held in the luxurious banquet hall of the high-end tavern, and Ning folded her waist triumphantly.

"Brother, look, you still keep saying that I can't make trouble by making trouble, isn't this earning us face?"

"What are you proud of, and you didn't give this tavern directly to you. Nuxun glanced at his sister, "And yes, that's because you've promised a good family, and I can't talk about you - when you're done here, you'd better take care of yourself and do business...... In this world, making money and saving your life is the last word. "

"Oh, I don't have any brains, I can't get those bargaining stuff - Ah Si is smart, you train Ah Si to do business with you~".

"What about me, what about me?" Zatu hurriedly asked.

"You-just learn skills with your sister, and strive for the opportunity to serve Na Yan in the future. "

"Good!".

Although Zatu and Dining were full of laughter, Nuxun's face was about to wring out of the water: "Nonsense! I advise you not to do knife trading, why do you instigate Zatu to play with his life in turn?".

"Everyone has their own ambitions, and Zatu, this kid is clever and brave, and he should climb to a high place. Even if Ning was criticized by his brother, he still poured wine for his brother with a shy smile, "Besides, if you tell me to stop doing it now, what should my brothers do - look at Ling Xiao, he is a talent, if he doesn't go out as a mercenary to go around to make money, it's just a tyrannical thing!"

Ling Xiao, who was eating silently on the side, didn't expect that the boss's family could get to himself in every day, and he almost choked on the food in his mouth. After swallowing hard, he raised his head, met the targeted gaze of Shang Nu Xunfu, was furious, and hurriedly opened his mouth to play a round: "It's okay, boss, I'm just eating with a mouthful, and there is nothing to be bent or unyielding." "

"Did you hear that?" Nuxon didn't show mercy either, and immediately turned his head to reprimand.

Ning stuck out her tongue, wondering how Ling Xiao, who had always been smarter than herself, couldn't hear the meaning of her words now. She was obviously looking for an excuse to let her brother allow her to continue to be a mercenary, but she didn't expect that she would be demolished by her own people first.

But in fact, Ling Xiao couldn't hear it? It was precisely because he heard it, and he didn't want to offend his employer's own brother, so he pretended to be stupid.

Radja didn't do it, as Assele's capable person, he helped hold this tournament in the hope of retaining talent for Assele, so he immediately admonished Nuxun: "Friend, you are short-sighted...... Ms. Ning is strong in martial arts, and it is the fragrant gluttony that the lords of all countries are vying for now, if she can continue to walk this path, let alone make a lot of money, it will be possible to become a proper lord in the future!".

Before Nuxun could refute, Ning Xian scratched his head in embarrassment.

"The lord is not ...... I just want to make more money......

."

"That's enough to just follow me to run the business!

Ling Xiao, who was silently eating melons, watched the interaction between the brothers and sisters, and suddenly seemed to see himself arguing with his family about college volunteering, and he was a little embarrassed for a while. He could indeed empathize with Ning, but now, as a bystander, he could clearly feel Nuxun's heartfelt care for his relatives - it was just that the patriarchal attitude was a little uncomfortable.

Well...... Speaking of which, Nuxon looked at him strangely several times...... In particular, when Ning mentioned his name when talking to him

, he ......

Good guy, he doesn't think I'm going to arch his cabbage, does he?

Strange thoughts came to Ling Xiao's mind, making Ling Xiao laugh. Finally holding back his laughter, he shook his head again, finally sobered up, and suddenly felt a little melancholy.

For no reason, Ling Xiao remembered his parents' craftsmanship. Although it is not very exquisite, when he was still in middle school in his hometown, every weekend when he came home from school, as soon as he opened the door, the fresh smell of the house would come to his face, because his father was stewing broth at home, and his mother was picking beanstalk ...... in the living room

I don't know when I can go back again

Maybe you can't go back, right?

Chewing cheese and bread from another world, Ling Xiao suddenly became a little irritable, so under the pretext of going to the bathroom, he temporarily left the banquet and wanted to go outside to blow the wind and breathe.

However, there were all the people and horses brought by Ning at the table, just those people, Ling Xiao was not alone, it was very eye-catching, not to mention that he was still the most affectionate friend of Ning among the soldiers. Therefore, noticing that Ling Xiao seemed to have been away from the table for too long, Ning suddenly became worried, afraid that Ling Xiao had drunk too much and was drunk outside, so he hurriedly came out to look for it. It's just that as soon as Ning walked out of the banquet hall, he saw Ling Xiao's lonely figure. The young man was lying on the windowsill at this time, looking up at the bright moon in the desert tonight.

Ning was very surprised: "Ling, what are you doing?".

“...... Ah, I drank a little too much, so I came out to blow the wind and sober up. "

Ling Xiao quickly wiped his face, and then turned to face Ning, but still buried his face in the shadows.

Ning is nervous, and now he can also feel the young man's sad state of mind. She mistakenly thought that Ling Xiao was secretly sad because of her brother's ruthless remarks just now, and she was still a little guilty for a while. However, she was also inconvenient to express her apologies, and after a moment of silence, she still had to force a smile: "Okay - then I'll stand with you for a while, and we'll talk by the way." "

So Ning walked up and stood beside Ling Xiao. The boy didn't dare to look directly into her face, but she looked straight into the boy's eyes in the shadows.

The two of them didn't say a word, they just did it, only listening to the desert wind outside the window, even if the wisps passed through the scattered towns of Asselai, there was a faint sound.

There was silence for a long time, and in the end, it was Ling Xiao who spoke first.

"Boss, I helped you to your room that night - the night of the Otungard Athletic - you were asleep, but you were crying...... Can you tell me why I'm crying?".

"...... It's been almost half a month ago, how can I remember ...... so clearly."

Ning Gan laughed twice, but soon he couldn't hold back and hung his head.

"I dreamed of my brother, my sister, my brother...... And my parents ......."

Although Ning's answer was similar to what Ling Xiao had guessed, but now that Ning said it, Ling Xiao was not indifferent because he already knew, and he sighed.

There was silence again.

"Thank you ......

".

This time, it was Ning who spoke first, but her voice was very thin, and Ling Xiao, who was immersed in emotion, didn't react at once.

"What?".

"I said — thank you. "

Ning raised his head again, and then looked at the young man, with the moonlight in his eyes.

"I don't know what sad things you remembered today...... But- I'm glad I met you...... You're really, really good — without you...... I can't get to ...... today."

Ling Xiao was stunned, and immediately smiled.

"No, I'm just helping, you're already very good. "

"Hmph, in fact, if no one has been there for me to support me, I am just a ...... of waste."

Dinin turned his head to look out the window at the rolling sand dunes beyond the towering walls of Asale Hubia.

“...... There are still many places that need help in the future, so ...... How much more trouble do I have to give you?".

"I try. "

"No, you promise~".
