Now that Xiong Cang has seen the relationship between Xiong Er and Ling Xuewei, he realizes that his younger brother also has such a side. He can be aggrieved, act coquettishly, and when he is praised, he will show a childish expression as if he has the whole world.
"Why……"
Dai Can looked at his captain who sighed for who knows how many times, looking at his expression eagerly hoping that his younger brother would take a look at him, but Xiong Er always followed Ling Xuewei like a little tail, not even looking at Xiong Er.
A pale look.
Xiong Cang's aggrieved and sad look really made Dai Can laugh.
"Ahem..." Dai Can coughed lightly and reminded cautiously, "Captain, the mercenary captains who made an appointment with you yesterday have been waiting outside for a long time. Don't you plan to go over?"
Xiong Cang finally came back to his senses, glanced at Dai Can, and turned his head silently. After a moment, he said quietly, "...Tell me, why do I like Young Master Ling so much? Because Young Master Ling is prettier than me.
?”
"Pfft——!" Dai Can couldn't help it this time.
My stupid captain also has this moment!
Xiong Cang was also dumbfounded by his words and scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Haha, captain, what you are asking is, isn't it natural that Mr. Ling is prettier than you?" Dai Can said with a smile, "As for Mr. Ling's appearance, looking at the entire Five Lakes State, I'm afraid not many people can do it.
Comparable!"
Although Mr. Ling is wearing a mask, his demeanor is enough to crush everyone!
"But Captain, you don't have to be jealous of Mr. Ling, right?" Dai Can said unceremoniously, "With your rough face, if you put it in front of any child, it's enough to make them cry."
Fan Yi on the side couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Doctor Dai, doesn't the captain look a bit scary? Is it really okay for you to stab the captain in the heart like this?
Xiong Cang was shocked by his own team members. He found that Dai Can had become more and more venomous recently. What was going on with this gloating look?
However, Dai Can also understood that when he saw such a carefree second son, he was worried and a little relieved at the same time. Before the second son was injured, Xiong Cang was very worried about the second son's condition, fearing that the second son would have a shadow. Now it seems that he is almost relieved.
point.
After Xiong Cang left, the courtyard became quiet again.
Ling Xuewei was playing with the herbs on the shelf, then walked to the side and sat down. She looked at the young man following behind her. Xiong Er had not spoken since he woke up. She checked Xiong Er's vocal cords and found that everything was normal. So it should be that Xiong Er had not spoken all this time.
It's a psychological reason.
However, Xiong Cang did not force Yuu Er, and everything went according to nature. Xiong Er also smiled a little more than when he first woke up, which everyone was happy to see.
"Want to go for a walk?" Ling Xuewei asked as she saw Xiong Er looking outside the courtyard.
When Yuuji heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he were a puppy seeing flesh and bones.
Ling Xuewei felt funny when she saw Xiong Er's appearance, stood up and said, "Then let's go."
In an instant, a bright smile appeared on Yuuji's face.
Ling Xuewei has also been bored in this yard for several days, and it's time to go out for a walk.
The city lord's palace was very large, and he met many people along the way, most of whom were mercenary members who were present that day. In the distance was a garden and a pond. Yuuji saw the lotus in the pond. It was rare that the child squatted there curiously.
Looking around.
Ling Xuewei was standing not far from Xiong Er, watching him run around excitedly, playing in the water, picking a lotus, and then picked a lotus and ran towards Ling Xuewei, and then shyly handed it to Ling Xuewei.
Xiong Er's delicate face shone in the sun. Ling Xuewei couldn't help but feel sad and rubbed his head.
"Bold! Who asked you to pick these flowers? Do you know what these are and why are you moving around?"
Suddenly, there was a harsh shout in the distance, and then a middle-aged housekeeper hurried over.
The housekeeper stared at the lotus in Xiong Er's hand, with an expression as if he wanted to eat Ling Xuewei and Xiong Er.
Xiong Er shrank his neck and hid behind Ling Xuewei in fear.
"This is the city lord's most beloved ice lotus. It was transplanted from the snow-capped mountains thousands of miles away. It was cultivated with great difficulty. One flower is worth a thousand gold. You actually picked it. You are so brave!" The steward put his hands on his waist.
, pointing at their noses and cursing.
His sharp voice easily attracted the attention of several people.
"Who are you? How dare you act so arrogantly here?" The housekeeper was not without a look, and his eyes fell on Ling Xuewei, looking at her.
If the two of them are distinguished guests of the city lord, then he will pretend that this incident never happened. If not...
Then don't blame him for being unkind.
"Flowing fire." Ling Xuewei spit out two words lightly.
"From the Flowing Fire Mercenary Group?" The steward's eyes flashed with disdain when he heard the name.
He had heard of the Flowing Fire Mercenary Group, but Ling Xuewei looked unfamiliar. At first glance, he was not a main character, but a follower at most, so naturally there was no need to be polite.
"This is the city lord's favorite ice lotus. Now you have picked it casually. How brave of you!" The steward looked like he wanted to get to the bottom of it.
"Since it is a precious thing, why should it be placed outside without any markings?" Ling Xuewei is not someone to be bullied.
To put it bluntly, you didn’t take care of this matter yourself, so who do you blame?
"Presumptuous!" The steward suddenly became furious, "This is the City Lord's Mansion, who do you think you dare to make noise here?"
The smile on Ling Xuewei's lips continued, "Why don't I bother you? Since the things have been picked, what do you want?"
When the housekeeper heard that Ling Xuewei took the initiative to ask for compensation, his face became much brighter, "Assuming you guys are sensible, my City Lord's Mansion is not unreasonable. As long as you compensate one million high-grade spiritual stones, I will let it go."
The butler had just finished speaking when there was an uproar around him.
One million high-grade spiritual stones!
This housekeeper is really a lion.
One million high-grade spiritual stones can be almost half a month's income of a second-class mercenary group. This person really dares to say that.
Ling Xuewei raised her eyebrows slightly. She had plenty of spiritual stones, but it wasn't that she couldn't afford them. But she couldn't bear to see people bullying others wantonly.
"What? Can't afford to pay?" The housekeeper looked at Ling Xuewei like a country bumpkin.
Ling Xuewei smiled lightly, "So what if I can't afford the compensation?"
"Huh, I can't afford the compensation, so I'll spare your two lives as compensation!" The housekeeper sneered, with a flash of arrogance and coldness in his eyes.
When people around him heard this, they felt some sympathy, but no one came forward to speak.
In this era when people are so worthless, no one cares about the life of a weak person.
"Oh."
Ling Xuewei sneered, her eyes hidden behind the mask, making it impossible to tell what she was thinking.
"Get it for me!"
As soon as the butler gave the order, the guards behind him rushed up.
Ling Xuewei and Xiong Er were immediately surrounded by guards.
