"What's wrong with you?" Looking at Xia Ning, who was a little embarrassed, Wang Jiajun's brows tightened.

"Nothing, nothing, the stones are too slippery." Sitting down again, Xia Ning snorted, "If I really came back from time travel, I would have made a fortune with you." ”

"That's right, and it saves me from running around every day for a storefront." Wang Jiajun nodded to himself, looking at the green mountains not far away, listening to the sound of birds, "Compared to the complexity of the city, this place can indeed make you calm down." ”

"In fact, it's not that the countryside makes people calm, but that we live a fast-paced life every day, and we can't be quiet if we want to." Picking up a stone, Boss Xia threw it into a puddle not far away, making a ding-dong sound.

"What are you doing with all this literature and art, tsk, it's as if everyone is drunk and you wake up alone." Wang Jiajun shook his head, picked up a stone as well, and threw it into the puddle.

The two big boys sat on the bluestone like this, playing boring games, until it was getting dark, and the well-behaved Yang Kui ran out and shouted to eat, and then went back.

There was no light in the room, only a candle was lit, and the dim candlelight kept flickering in the darkness, and there was a sense of desolation.

At night, it is a simple somen with eggs, but eggs are only available to Boss Xia and Wang Jiajun.

On the other hand, Yang Kui and her grandfather only have white noodles in the bowl, and there is almost no meat oil.

This made the two very uncomfortable, Wang Jiajun tried to give one, but Yang Kui didn't want it, saying that it could only be eaten by guests.

"This..."Wang Jiajun glanced at Xia Ning, asking for help in his eyes.

Xia Ning nodded, took the eggs in the bowl, and said seriously: "I don't like to eat eggs, give it to you, if you don't take it, then you won't work in my store in the future."

At first, Yang Kui was still a little hesitant, but when he heard the second half of the words, he still lowered his head and took the egg.

However, she did not eat it herself, but used chopsticks to divide the egg in half, gave half to her grandfather, and walked into the bedroom with the bowl, and walked out after a while.

The two of them don't have to guess, they both know that this Nizi definitely gave the eggs to her grandmother.

Glancing at the eggs in his bowl, Wang Jiajun wanted to give half to Xia Ning, but the latter just shook his head and ate the eggs in his bowl.

There was no way, Wang Jiajun had to eat it himself, but it felt like chewing wax.

After the meal, Yang Kui cleaned up the table and went to wash the dishes.

The old man bit the dry tobacco stick, pinch the tobacco on the ground, and then lit it.

Frowning, he smoked a little, the rising smoke making the face look a little unreal.

The two people sitting opposite, especially Wang Jiajun, were extremely nervous, because he didn't know how to talk to such an old man.

On the contrary, Xia Ning showed a bit of old age, and said after a while: "Uncle, I came this time for some things."

The eldest grandfather raised his drooping eyelids and looked at Xia Ning in some surprise: "What's the matter?"

Then Boss Xia briefly described how he wanted to send his grandmother to the hospital and Yang Kui to go to school.

After listening, the uncle's eyes were full of incredulity, thinking that he had misheard: "Young man, why are you doing this?"

He really didn't understand why the other party did this, he had no money, no power, it could be said that he had nothing, he didn't understand the significance of Xia Ning doing these things.

But Xia Ning just smiled: "Yang Kui is a good child, I don't want her to spend her life like this, and I believe that you two don't want to see her working all the time."

Hearing this, the uncle was silent.

The dry smoke in his hand was extinguished unconsciously, and he didn't fill it.

At this time, Yang Kui brushed the bowl and walked out, just in time to see several people sitting and talking.

"What are you talking about?" The childish voice like a silver bell is not mixed with a trace of impurities, and the hearts of those who listen to it are crispy.

"We're talking about when to send your grandma to the hospital for treatment." Holding his chin in his hand, Xia Ning said with a light smile.

"Really?!" Yang Kui blinked her watery eyes, her eyes were full of joy, "Thank you, Brother Xia, thank you, Brother Wang, I will definitely work hard in the future." ”

Xia Ning didn't speak, his obsidian eyes stared at the candlelight and didn't speak, not knowing what was going on in his heart.

Lying on the bed at night, Xia Ning and Wang Jiajun both kept their eyes open and did not speak.

"I really didn't expect Yang Kui's family to be so difficult." Wang Jiajun sighed and said.

"In fact, there is more than one family like this in the world, but we don't see it." Looking out of the dark window, Xia Ning looked a little tired, "We're just ordinary people, we don't have that much power to help so many people, just do our best." ”

"Yes, the world is so big, how much can we do?" Wang Jiajun quite agreed with the words of the dead friend, "By the way, when do you plan to return to Dragon City?"

"Hmm...... When I put my grandmother in place, I have to find someone to take care of me. Xia Ning replied calmly with the back of his head on his head.

"When I go back, I'll go and arrange for Yang Kui to go to school, this little girl is so sensible, you say yes, Lao Xia."

“……”

"Old Xia?"

“……”

Seeing that no one answered, Wang Jiajun propped himself up and took a look, and found that the other party had already fallen asleep, and only the slight snoring could be heard.

"That's falling asleep?" Wang Jiajun shook his head, also lay down and closed his eyes.

Early the next morning, Xia Ning and Wang Jiajun went to the local hospital to learn something about their grandmother's hospitalization.

It took about half a day before the matter was settled.

After hearing Xia Ning say that she would pay for her treatment and Yang Kui's schooling, her grandmother couldn't help but shed tears.

In fact, she has always been reluctant for Yang Kui to go out to work, obviously she is so young.

"You can take care of your illness, and when you get better, how good it is for the family to be happy together." Xia Ning said with a warm smile.

Yang Kui on the side also knew about his school just now, and he objected: "I won't go to school, brother, you have already helped me a lot, and I haven't repaid you yet."

Although she envies her peers who go to school, she doesn't want to be uneasy to be indebted to others all the time.

"How can you increase your knowledge if you don't learn? How can I make money without knowledge? Boss Xia said extremely realistically, and looked at Yang Kui with a bluffed face, "If you can't make money, then your grandmother will be kicked out of the hospital, and I will see what you will do when the time comes?" ”

Although a little reluctant, under pressure, Yang Kui still agreed to the request to go to school.

Then the next day, Xia Ning and the others rented a car and took their grandmother to the hospital.

After taking the treatment fee for about three months, Xia Ning took some money to the uncle.

And the uncle just shook his head and didn't accept it, but just told Xia Ning to take care of Yang Kui and not let her suffer too much.

After saying that, he left.

"Brother, when are we going to come back?" Sitting in the back seat, Yang Kui looked at his grandfather's voice and said with some reluctance.

"We'll send you back every time it's time for the holidays, so you have to work hard and don't live up to your grandparents' expectations." Xia Ning, who was leaning against the car window, replied with a chuckle.

"I will!" Clenching his small fists, Yang Kui said as if he were swearing.

"Okay, let's go, Lao Cao has already called me several times, and this handshaker can't be a shopkeeper anymore." Stretching his waist, Boss Xia looked out the window at the rain falling on the car window, outlining irregular lines.

The car started, and the three of them gradually moved away from the village and headed towards Dragon City.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, they finally returned to the experience hall.

As soon as he got off the bus, Xia Ning heard some old tourists joking.

"Boss Xia, I haven't seen you in the past few days, where have you been."

It was Li Wei, the first customer of the experience hall, who spoke and released the depression in his heart after being scared for the first time, and he and his girlfriend often came to visit.

To a certain extent, Boss Xia can be regarded as a witness to their love.

"Dashing ghost, I'm tired." With a wave of his hand, Xia Ning went directly into the store and went upstairs.

"My boss, you're back." Seeing Xia Ning's appearance, Lao Cao was about to cry.

In the past few days, he has taken the lead alone, running on both sides of the school experience hall, which has exhausted him.

"Anything has happened to me these days?" Sitting in a familiar gaming chair, Xia Ning began to browse through the recent income and expenditure situation.

"Big deals, no, except for Sister Liu, who has been here a few times, and there is a girl surnamed Chen who has come to you." Cao Ninglong said after thinking about it.

"Surnamed Chen?" The eyebrows were slightly raised, Xia Ning didn't seem to remember what girl surnamed Chen she knew, "What did she say her name was?" ”

"No, she said that her name is Chen Chuhuan, and she said that she wanted to ask you some painting skills, and she also left her contact information, and I will send it to you." Lao Cao's carrot-like fingers clicked on the keyboard.

"Chen Chuhuan?" Xia Ning thought about it carefully for a while, but still didn't remember the name.

However, when I heard the word painting, I remembered the time when I painted the cup, and I gave my own experience hall a wave of advertising.

"Is it really a classmate of the 'City Painting Cup'?" Just as I was thinking about it, a message came from my phone.

A contact method came into view.

After thinking about it, since the other party had already come to ask for advice, he couldn't ignore the other party, so he clicked to add friends.

After a while, a message came from the phone that the friend was successfully added.

"Bubble-spitting fish: Are you?"

"Handsome dog: I'm Xia Ning, I heard my friend say you are looking for me? I'm sorry, I had something before, so I wasn't in the store. ”

"Bubble Fish: It's okay, it's okay, I just have some painting problems I want to ask you, I don't know if you have time."

"Handsome dog: Yes, I've been in the experience hall lately, you can come whenever you want."

"Bubble Fish: Really? That's so much appreciated. ”

"Handsome dog: You're welcome."

After chatting a few more times, Xia Ning turned off his phone.

Suddenly, I thought that I hadn't been to the system's employee group for a long time, and I just happened to be okay now, so I went in to see if these guys were complaining about themselves.

Tapping on the virtual screen, Xia Ning entered face-to-face mode.

After a dizziness in his brain, he returned to the familiar council chamber.

As soon as he opened his eyes, a figure rushed over and hugged his thigh: "Boss, you're finally here, I want to kill you."

Xia Ning looked down and found that it was our cute chainsaw murderer girl, who was crying at this time with rain.

"You're exaggerating, isn't it, it's like I'm dead."

The murderous madwoman raised her head and looked aggrieved: "What about coming to see us often?" Deceitful! ”

"Isn't it that I've been too busy lately, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Glancing at the others in the chamber, Xia Ning smiled politely.

It just so happened that at this time, a slightly cold hand landed on his shoulder.

Frightened, Xia Ning quickly turned his head, wondering who it was.

Then he turned around and realized that it was a woman in a red dress.

Dressed in a burgundy spinning dress, her long black and beautiful hair was draped casually over her shoulders, and her blood-red lips looked at Xia Ning with a light smile.

After looking up and down, Boss Xia instantly recognized who the other party was.

"Are you Sister Hong in "Dead Soul Village"?"

The woman laughed deeper, slowly stretched out her hand, and touched Xia Ning's face: "It really hasn't changed at all."

As soon as these words came out, a coughing sound suddenly came from the council room, as if it could remind something.

Hearing the voice, the woman also slowly withdrew her hand.

Nothing has changed?

What does it mean?

Sister Hong's words made Xia Ning a little baffled, and she and the other party didn't know each other at all.

When I met with other virtual employees before, I didn't have the role of Sister Hong, and I didn't see myself at all.

How could such a thing be said?

Combined with the abnormal behavior of the others, Xia Ning realized that there must be something wrong with this.

"Hello, Sister Hong." However, out of politeness, Boss Xia still shouted obediently.

For the time being, no matter what the other party knows, there is still a need for etiquette, after all, the other party is his own employee.

"Hello, boss." Sister Hong smiled, as if she was looking at her relatives.

That feeling made Xia Ning a little trance-like, and for a moment, he seemed to feel that he had seen each other somewhere.

But as soon as a fragment of memory flashed, it disappeared without a trace.

"We... Have you ever seen it? Xia Ning asked tentatively.

A hint of hesitation flashed in the woman's eyes, but in the end she said, "No, this is our first acquaintance."

The crowd next to them also breathed a sigh of relief, as if the fuse of the bomb was extinguished.

"But I feel like I've seen you somewhere?" Staring at that unfamiliar face, Xia Ning's mind entered a state of frantic thinking, where had he definitely seen each other.

But it's just a little bit, but I can't catch it.

Looking at Xia Ning, who was covering her head that was a little painful, Sister Hong said gently: "I know you want to know the truth, but now is not the time, when you are promoted to LV2, someone will answer the questions you want to know."

"Anyone?" Xia Ning twisted his eyebrows, "Who?" ”

"You'll know then, it's too early, and when you really develop, all the answers will be revealed." Sister Hong seemed to be the same as Lao Suo, who wanted to answer, but couldn't.

can only answer Xia Ning's question half-concealedly.

After thinking for a while, he asked again, "Is that person someone I know?" Can you tell me about this? ”

Sister Hong looked at the others, and then at Xia Ning.

Said after a moment.

"All I can say is that person is someone close to you."
