33 Long Xu's struggle
The Long family, in general, is a united family, and since Long Lie's culinary "talent" has been revealed, things like banquets have happened from time to time.
Although there are more than 300 members of the family, most of them are familiar faces, and they can accurately call the name of each clan.
Solidarity can share joys, sorrows, and sorrows...... Being in it can feel double the joy, but it also feels double the sadness.
At this time, Long Xu was deeply trapped in such an embarrassing environment.
Many elders of affiliated families pulled her to wipe her tears, as if they really felt the same way.
But correspondingly, it is inevitable that there will be people who are not used to looking at Long Xu, after all, when Long Yun took out the "separation grass" before, there were not many voices of opposition from the affiliated families.
Originally, it was not a family, but the interests were current, and it became a short-lived community, and the undercurrent always existed.
After a period of pleasantries, I finally sat down.
This reception banquet for Long Xu was no different from the past on the surface, but Long Xu always felt strange all over, and other people's eyes seemed to have a subtle change in her eyes, which she had never felt in the past.
On such an occasion, she naturally needs to say something.
In the affiliated families, none of them knew that she had been given the experience of being given an S-class natal beast, nor did they know why Long Xu failed to awaken, let alone why Long Yun insisted on giving the "Separation Grass" to such a waste material lady.
Long Xu had thought a lot about what she was going to say today, but in the environment at this moment, there were many words that seemed to be a lifetime away, and finally she was speechless, and in front of everyone, she tore apart the sharp qi of the past little by little.
"I'm sorry to live up to everyone's expectations"
As soon as her words fell, all kinds of comforts immediately filled in, as if she had already prepared them. Long Xu only felt that his brain was chaotic, and he couldn't hear what they were talking about, and all the words turned into left ears in and out of right ears.
Long Xu, who had always been looking at the world from high in the past, suddenly understood many details that he hadn't noticed at this time after his vision gradually changed, and it turned out that everyone's sincerity seemed to be mixed with complicated things, wearing a plausible mask.
Long Xu knew that such actions and thoughts would inevitably make her continue to fall into the dust.
But without the armor of strength, there was no way to resist, and she only felt extremely sleepy. But in the future, in a situation like this, she will be with her, and the food of such a banquet will taste like chewing wax.
This is clearly the life that ordinary people rely on to survive, but for her, it is like a flash.
From genius to scrap overnight, such a contrast is always rare in the world.
But if you have ever touched the sea, how can you safely retreat to the stream......
When Long Xu was about to crumble, someone suddenly pinched her and pulled her back to reality, Long Xu looked sideways, and saw Long Lie beside him with a provocative gaze, in a trance, she saw her in the past from her brother's body, his heartlessness and ruthlessness, he could imitate this look so well.
It's as if I suddenly have feelings......
Such aggressive eyes flowed from Long Lie's body, but they were full of kindness and warmth.
She was dazed and remembered that when Long Lie was just born, she had given him a slap.
The piles of the past, after the precipitation of time, always seem extraordinarily moving.
She gradually suppressed the uneasiness in her heart, learned to put on a new mask, and listened carefully to everyone's speech.
The second aunt over there, Long Qingyue, drank a lot of wine, and was drunk at this time, and was arranging the two sisters Long Yan and Long Ran with a look of hatred, "Alas, the glory of the next generation is on the two of you, you have to work hard!"
"What about you, a man with great limbs but a limited IQ, and a brilliant but fighting idiot, if only you two could neutralize it......"
In this wine, her voice was even more charming, but the words she said were too harsh, like an iron-blooded strict teacher, mercilessly pointing out the shortcomings of the students, Long Yan and Long Ran both buried their heads low, and their one-year college life seemed to be also full of many setbacks.
After all, this is not the era when the three geniuses of the Long family were in the world.
But Long Xu finally put on the mask, but was directly stabbed into her heart, she seemed to feel that this passage meant something, and it was her reason that Long Yan and Long Ran carried more pressure.
Kang Xiao habitually guarded the short, and patted the table, "Long Qingyue, don't put so much pressure on my daughters, they have a blue water snake, as long as they cultivate step by step, they won't be bad" The blue water snake is an evolutionary natal beast, which is originally a type of thin water, and it is inevitable that it will be weak in the early stage.
He went on to say, "If you are obsessed with cultivating geniuses, why don't you give birth to one yourself! Otherwise, you will always like to talk about cool things" When the two were in the academy, they just didn't like each other, but now they are extremely skilled in teasing and can clearly grasp each other's pain points.
Long Qingyue hurriedly changed the topic, "It seems that I have to rise to the nine stars as soon as possible and give the juniors a piece of the sky" After all, she has a knife mouth and a tofu heart.
Under Long Yun, the second echelon of strength is Long Qingya and Long Qingyue.
Long Qingya, as the candidate of the next family, is generally stable. If you really want to talk about cultivation, Long Qingyue, who is still the alternate city lord, is better, and she is naturally the next nine-star summoner of the Long family who has high hopes.
Throughout the banquet, Long Qingyu was still eating quietly, no different from her in the past.
Long Qingyue had just touched a nose of ash at Kang Xiao's, and at this time, looking at Long Qingyu's appearance, she only felt that she couldn't suppress the smell of alcohol, and wanted to fight with her fiercely.
But now one is an eight-star high-level and the other is a five-star top rank, and the disparity between them will only make her Long Qingyue unreasonable.
So she could only vent her anger with her mouth, "In this world, the person I admire the most should be my third sister Long Qingyu, how high-spirited she was back then, and she couldn't live forever."
Hearing this sudden roll call, Long Qingyu was stunned and never looked up.
"Oh, but that person has become what he is now, compromising with the world, it's ridiculous" She seemed to want to release all the resentment of all these years "I thought this was the most painful thing in the world, but I didn't expect her daughter to repeat the same mistakes and continue to roll in the world......"
"Yue'er, you're drunk!" Long Yun interrupted the gunpowder-smelling conversation, she didn't know that the Long family had been suffering from internal and external troubles after losing Long Xu, a genius. Long Qingyue is at the forefront of Wangjin Academy, and there are many hardships that cannot be explained by outsiders. Therefore, the talent of the next generation is highly valued... Deep down, he must have hoped that Long Xu could become a contractor, but at this time, his words were nothing more than that.
At this time, Long Qingyu suddenly spoke, adding another fire to this scene, "The old blade is worn out, I always want to create a new blade for the family, I didn't expect it to be so uncompetitive"
These words appeared suddenly, but they pierced the heart like a knife.
"Mother, do you hate me?!" Long Xu, who was sitting on the side, suddenly raised his decibels.
This movement suddenly alarmed the people of the other affiliated families, who looked at this ruined reception banquet and didn't know how to deal with themselves.
Long Xu stood up from his chair and breathed heavily, the "mask" he had just brought was shattered.
Long Xu had endured the compromise for a long time, and instantly bottomed out, as if he had become the high-ranking lady again.
"Huh?" Long Qingyu glanced at her casually, squeezing out a mocking smile, "It's not hate, it's just irrelevant, if you still miss the cultivation of the family, you will immediately become a contractor"
The first time she tore her face with her mother like this, Long Xu only felt that her blood was surging, and everything she had done in the past had become fearless.
She ran out like crazy.
