Chapter 156 Experience with him
Xiao Ding coughed lightly and said: "Miss Wan, don't be too anxious. Maybe Xiao Yanzi was delayed on the road, so why don't we stay here for a few days? It’s better to wait for him to come, right?”
Xiao Ding’s words made Yao Wan pause slightly.
"Wait a few days..."
Yaowan groaned.
Seeing the girl's hesitation, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li knew there was going to be something going on, so they took advantage of the heat and said, "Girl, I'm staying here for a few days. I don't think it will delay my schedule."
"It sounds like... it seems That's true."
Yao Wan nodded slightly.
"Okay, in that case, I will go and arrange the girl...and this gentleman's recent residence, Xue Lan, thank you for your hard work."
Xiao Ding said with a smile .
"Well, captain, leave it to me."
Xue Lan nodded slightly, and then left the door with the medicine.
After Yao Wan left, the two brothers Xiao Ding and Xiao Li couldn't help but smile at each other.
"Oh~ I can't believe it, I can't believe that Xiao Yanzi is so lucky to be able to catch such a beautiful lady..."
Xiao Li couldn't help sighing, and the corners of his mouth raised.
"I think the matter between the two of them has not yet come to an end, so it's better not to draw a conclusion prematurely."
Xiao Ding shook his head, but the smile on the corner of his mouth was still exposed. His true thoughts.
"Hey, we sons of the Xiao family are no worse than anyone else. Since my father said that there are signs of this, how can it be false?"
Xiao Li said: "What's more, I saw what my father said in his letter. , Xiao Yanzi’s cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds now, and this girl whom everyone relies on is helping Xiao Yanzi so much. I don’t believe that she doesn’t feel anything at all.”
“How should I tell you... ?”
Xiao Ding shook his head, he didn't think that was the case.
How should I put it? I met that girl in a hurry just now, and when she mentioned Xiao Yan, her expression didn’t change much... Maybe she really just regarded Xiao Yan as an ordinary friend. ?
What's more, what worries Xiao Ding even more is the identity of the girl Wan that his father mentioned briefly in his letter.
It seems that he is probably from a family that is no less powerful than the Yunlan Sect.
The matter with Nalan Yanran is not over yet, but now he has offended this girl.
Xiao Ding couldn't help but shook his head, I am afraid that Xiao Yanzi will be under great pressure in the future.
"By the way, remember to arrange for a maid with quick hands and feet to wait on you. Although the Xiao family is not big, you are a guest, so you must not lose your etiquette."
"That's called Qing Lin, let’s go? The little girl is smart and lovable.”
“Qing Lin…”
Xiao Ding hesitated, naturally he didn’t have any objections to that little girl. .
However, due to her background, this little girl is always not welcomed by others.
"I know, aren't you just afraid that Qinglin will make others unhappy?"
Xiao Li said: "But this girl is not from the Tagor Desert. I think she will be here all her life. It’s your first time in the desert. How can you be jealous of the snake people like our mercenaries?”
“Brother, don’t worry.”
Xiao Ding pondered for a moment and finally said. Yes nodded.
.........
"This is a humble house in a small town, please don't take offense to Miss Wan."
After leading Yao Wan to a quiet residence, Xue Lan said with a smile.
"What are you talking about, Miss Xuelan? I am not a pampered person. One room is enough."
"It is one thing for Miss Wan to think so. But doing it is another matter.”
Xue Lan smiled and said: "The two captains regard the girl as a distinguished guest, so naturally she needs to be treated well."
"No, no, no... I just followed some people to get some light, haha..."
Yao Wan turned her head away in embarrassment. If she were an acquaintance or a stranger, she would not be like this now, but it just happened that the relationship was stuck there. , which makes people feel terribly uncomfortable.
Let’s call it familiar. This is her first time in Shimo City. She is not familiar with the place, but she is received like this.
Let’s call it strange. The two captains are the brothers of Xiao Yan’s mother. Unless something unexpected happens, we will meet again in the future. I can’t handle my attitude well and make others unhappy. The first thing is that Xiao Yan wants to blame him.
How could she survive this?
Xue Lan heard that Yao Wan was referring to Xiao Yan, and she couldn't help but be full of curiosity about the genius brother mentioned by the two captains.
“I don’t know, what kind of person is that little brother Xiao Yan?”
“He? He makes up his mind, flirts with others, and is a bit inexplicably conservative. "
"It's nothing but 'Miss Wan, come and help me!'... Weird, when did that guy become like this in my impression...? I can't think of it at the moment. Get up.”
Yao Wan held her forehead slightly. She originally thought that she might express her impressions and opinions about Xiao Yan more implicitly, and focused on selecting some suitable and nice words to say.
In the end, before I could even notice, my true opinion of him poured out like beans from a bamboo tube.
Xue Lan was slightly startled when she heard the words. Although she didn't hear any good words from the other person's mouth, she didn't know why, but she vaguely heard something else mixed with the disgust. After all, if you really dislike someone, you wouldn't be so aware of a person's shortcomings.
"...Hey, it seems that Miss Wan still needs to take more care of her."
Xue Lan vaguely guessed the relationship between Yao Wan and Xiao Yan, but she did not take the initiative to point it out. She just looked at Yao Wan deeply with a suggestive look and expression.
“There’s no need to worry about it, I’m almost used to it anyway…”
Yaowan raised her head subconsciously, but her voice was still pretending to be open-minded. After she noticed Xue Lan's understanding eyes, everything came to an abrupt end.
——Wait.
Yaowan is not slow, and is very sharp, so that the moment she saw Xue Lan's eyes, she realized that something might be serious.
No, did this girl understand something wrong?
Realizing that her statement might have been misunderstood, Yao Wan hurriedly wanted to explain something, but unexpectedly Xue Lan just smiled and shook her head, indicating that she understood everything.
…No.
Yao Wan felt an unspeakable embarrassment constantly growing in her heart, along with her own embarrassment and anger.
What do you understand now!
.........
After Motie Mercenary Group arranged their accommodation for the next few days, Yao Wan watched Xue Lan leave, but saw Hai Bodong standing outside the door, seemingly waiting. Own.
“What’s wrong, you’re not used to the weather in Stone Desert City?”
Yaowan walked out of the room and looked at Hai Bodong, who had a strange expression, with a headache on his face, and couldn’t help but say.
“…Not really, it’s just a little weird.”
Hai Bodong raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "A person like you can actually behave like that."
Yaowan was stunned for a moment before she realized what Hai Bodong was referring to. .
“Is this considered polite?”
Yaowan coughed lightly.
"...Speaking of which, which Xiao family are you talking about? The Xiao family in the imperial capital?"
Haibodong suddenly asked, Yao Wan blinked, isn't the Xiao family in Wutan City?
It wasn't until a moment later that she suddenly realized that the Xiao family's decline and relocation to Wutan City seemed to have happened within a few decades. The previous generation's head of the family, Xiao Lin, was still the Dou Wangqiang of the Jiama Empire. After all, the Xiao family is naturally flourishing in the imperial capital.
It’s just a pity that the descendants are not so lively. Since Xiao Lin’s death, the Xiao family has never had a Dou Wang-level strongman. In the end, He was forced to move out of the Jia Ma Imperial Capital and came to Wutan City.
Of course, it is also possible that this is just a knife used by the Xiao family to draw out Xiao Yan, the SSR.
"Well, it's just that the Xiao family has fallen into decline and has moved out of the imperial capital. Now there is no way to say that it is the Xiao family in the imperial capital."
Yaowan explained.
"The family is in decline? What about the Nalan family? Among the generals in the imperial capital, the Xiao family had a very good relationship with the Nalan family, and everyone in the imperial capital knew it."
Hai Bodong said: " The Xiao family is in trouble, and the Nalan family doesn’t help?”
“The Nalan family...”
Yao Wan couldn’t help but be silent for a moment, why does everyone know about the Xiao family and Nalan? The house is such a mess.
"It's a long story. If Hai Lao is interested in the past, why don't you go find someone else and ask."
"Yes."
Hai Bodong then responded. It seems that this girl is from out of town, so it is normal for her to be unclear about these things.
“But I’m even more curious about how the declining Xiao family got involved with you. And it seems...you have a good relationship with the third child in their family?”
< br>Gossip is probably a human instinct, especially when one is extremely interested in it.
Even Hai Bodong's indifferent temperament could not avoid it.
"..."
Yao Wan frowned slightly, no, the Hai Bodong in her impression was not like this. Why did he look so opposite between her and Xiao Yan? Are you so interested in the relationship?
But she didn't change her face. After all, wouldn't it be easier to show that there is something wrong in her heart if she always blows up her hair?
“Cough——”
Yaowan coughed slightly, cleared his throat, and then explained: "It doesn't have any special relationship, it's just that I met him by chance and helped him on a whim. But he is really talented and worthy of my help to him."
"We have become friends after we have been together for a long time."
"So at least I am. While he was still in the Jia Ma Empire, if anything happened to him, I would always help him a little."
"How about it? Are you satisfied now?"
There was a hint of impatience in Yao Wan's words. After all, she was not the kind of person who would take the initiative to mention her relationship with others, let alone Xiao Yan——
Hai Bodong was slightly startled and couldn't help but shook his head slightly.
The surprise in his eyes flashed away, just because he didn't want to offend her, so he couldn't say anything more.
