The main hall of the Nangong family.

Li Xiaomo lowered his head and tasted tea, he loved this dish in his previous life, it was rare to drink it once, and it was very enjoyable to focus on it.

Jiang Shuyue, who was in the right position, knocked lightly on the table, the sound was not loud, but in the silence, it was very obvious.

She is Nangong Zhixi's mother, she is only in her thirties this year, she is well-maintained, her figure is graceful, her dress is not as dazzling as the nouveau riche like Mrs. Lyle, and there is another kind of restrained nobility.

Melon Zi has a pair of sleeping phoenix eyes on her face, and her eyelids cover most of her pupils, making it impossible to see the meaning revealed in her eyes.

Li Xiaomo's composure surprised her, she still remembered that Li Xiaomo was cramped and uneasy when she first saw her, and she couldn't even speak well, she hadn't seen her for more than four months, how could there be such a big change?

The dull atmosphere at the moment was embarrassing, but she couldn't hold her breath, her fingers tapping on the table suddenly stopped, and said to Li Xiaomo: "Listen to Zhixi, you behaved well in the refining room and did what you had to do. ”

Li Xiaomo smiled slightly: "It's not that you should do it, but you can't do it if you don't do it." The hand holding the teacup stretched forward slightly, and looked at the maid standing at the bottom: "Excuse me." ”

The maid was terrified, and in this atmosphere, she even forgot her duty, and hurriedly poured tea for Li Xiaomo.

Jiang Shuyue secretly grabbed the corner of her skirt, in her opinion, Li Xiaomo was pretending to be profound, which made her very disgusted, and she didn't even have the intention of continuing to talk, she didn't understand, Nangong Lie was so confused that she wanted to invite Li Xiaomo to eat at home.

Li Xiaomo could feel Jiang Shuyue's emotions, but it had nothing to do with him, he didn't plan to come over at all, it was Nangong Lie who begged him for something and took the initiative to call him over.

Nangong Zhixi sat opposite him, and he was already surprised by his behavior, if he suddenly turned to the past, it would make Nangong Zhixi strange.

After drinking two teas, Nangong Lie came back.

Li Xiaomo got up to salute, Nangong Lie nodded to him, and went to the main seat to sit down.

Nangong Lie saw the displeasure in Jiang Shuyue's eyes, shook his head slightly, and signaled Jiang Shuyue to forbear.

He is the supreme commander of the 1st Mobile Regiment, and the accumulation of years has given him a majesty of his own, and if it is not for the slight gloom in his eyes on his resolute face, this is the image of an iron-blooded soldier.

As soon as he came back, Jiang Shuyue let his subordinates hold a banquet, and she could rest assured by sending Li Xiaomo away as soon as possible.

Nangong Lie has been looking at Li Xiaomo, through Nangong Zhixi's description, he also feels that some changes have occurred in Li Xiaomo, and now that he looks at it, it is really very different from the past, he is very puzzled, but he can't figure out the reason.

Moving to the restaurant, the wine and food have been served one after another, Jiang Shuyue did not come, she didn't want to eat at the same table with Li Xiaomo, this kind of hospitality seems extremely unreasonable.

"Li Xiaomo, Chief of Staff of Wei Cannon is your grandfather's friend, this meeting, I should be very satisfied with you, what did you all talk about?" Nangong Lie was ready to go straight to the topic, Jiang Shuyue had already offended people, why bother twisting and pinching, besides, eating was just an excuse, and he didn't have time to accompany Li Xiaomo to eat.

Li Xiaomo didn't move his chopsticks, he was the same as Nangong Lie, and it was difficult for him to raise any interest in the table full of dishes, and he didn't come here to eat, so he said with a smile: "I didn't talk about anything, the old man cared about the younger generations and took care of a few words." ”

Nangong Lie said, "Is it true? Didn't discuss Zhixi, or maybe it was Jace and Anderson?"

Nangong Zhixi's face changed, she didn't know why Nangong Lie invited Li Xiaomo to dinner, but when she heard this, she already understood that Li Xiaomo had seen the chief of staff of the fortress, maybe her punishment was related to this.

So looking at Li Xiaomo's gaze, it became complicated, in her opinion, Li Xiaomo has been acting very strong since he was injured and returned to school, and it is normal to ask the chief of staff to punish her because of the matter in the refining room.

This made her feel very uncomfortable, she has always had a sympathetic attitude towards Li Xiaomo, but Li Xiaomo may not think so, behind the strength, in order to take revenge.

She has had this idea more than once, and she also thought this way when she was killed by Li Xiaomo in the Bingtui competition, and at that time she believed it for the time being because of Li Xiaomo's explanation, but now, she feels very ridiculous.

Li Xiaomo looked at Nangong Lie with an indifferent expression, and he had a bearing: "I didn't ask Nangong Zhixi in front of the chief of staff, but I thought that Nangong Zhixi would be implicated because of my words." ”

Nangong Zhixi's face turned pale, and her guess was indeed correct.

Nangong Lie's face was not good-looking, and he said in a deep voice: "In other words, you still said it." Li Xiaomo, have you ever thought about what a shameful act it is for you to take advantage of your grandfather's relationship to put three future outstanding officers on their backsadd?"

Li Xiaomo said: "If you think that I can use my grandfather's identity to influence the chief of staff of the fortress, then whatever you think." ”

Nangong Lie took a deep breath: "Okay, you tell the chief of staff and let him revoke this punishment, Anderson, I can leave it alone, but the punishment of Zhixi and Jace must be revoked." ”

Li Xiaomo's eyes turned cold, Nangong Lie's maintenance of Jace made a wave of hatred rise in his heart, he even wanted to slap himself, and then go to pick up the grave he had built with his own hands, he hated the dead Li Xiaomo, and he actually left him with such a big emotional trouble.

However, his self-control is not comparable to ordinary people, he slowly calmed his breathing, and his heart gradually calmed down, looking at Nangong Lie and said: "I still say the same thing, if you think I can use my grandfather's identity to sway the chief of staff, then I have nothing to say." ”

Nangong Lie laughed angrily: "Okay, good, okay, Li Xiaomo, I really didn't expect you to have this scheming, it seems that you are deliberately taking revenge on me, just because I didn't agree to your marriage with Zhixi." ”

Li Xiaomo didn't want to talk anymore, and got up with a sneer: "With all due respect, you overestimate yourself too much, if it weren't for Nangong Zhixi looking for me today, I would have even forgotten about you and said goodbye." "After that, he left.

Nangong Lie was so angry that he directly swept the dishes to the ground, stood up in a chaotic noise, and shouted: "Li Xiaomo, you remember what you said today, and I will also send you a word, with the day when I Nangong Lie is here, you don't want to mix in the army." ”

Nangong Zhixi didn't expect such a result to be eaten in one meal, and she didn't know what to do for a while.

Nangong Lie gasped, he hated it so much, Li Xiaomo's attitude was even more embarrassing than a slap in the face.

Li Xiaomo was also on fire, clenching his fists and striding away, Nangong Lie had completely angered him.

The meal ended as soon as it began, and the three people who ate, one of them had a complicated mind and couldn't tell whether they were hateful or sad, but the other two almost fought.

Li Xiaomo left Nangong's house, stood at the door and looked at the starry sky, took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, feeling a little better, and heard the sound of footsteps, but it was Nangong Zhixi who chased it out.
