After I became an immortal in Uchimaki, I went from being a loser to becoming a group favorite.

Nangong Xun's brows knitted into knots. After a while, he tilted his head and said, "Forgot."

Nangong Ling: "..."

Nangong Ling may not have noticed it himself, but he has been avoiding the answer to this question for five years.

Because he is afraid.

He was afraid that knowing the answer would shake his desire for revenge.

Tang Ling saw from his memory that for many years he had been tortured by the cruel images in his mother's memory due to the spell, and his heart had been frozen, leaving only revenge.

Maybe he doesn't know it himself, but he may be afraid of the cruel choices he will face if his heart is melted one day.

But now, he suddenly heard the answer that had puzzled him for five years, and it turned out to be a simple "forget".

A surge of anger suddenly surged in Nangong Ling's chest, burning him to the point of temporarily throwing away his rationality.

"Forgot?! Apart from eating, drinking and having fun, what else do you remember in your mind?"

Nangong Ling stood up suddenly, and the food in the lunch box spilled on the floor, but he ignored it and left angrily.

Nangong Xun's shout came from behind, and Xiao Hei inside his body chuckled inexplicably.

None of this reached his ears.

Tang Ling could only feel the anger in his chest gradually calming down with the cold wind blowing in front of him.

Nangong Ling soon regretted it.

I regret that I am like Nangong Fenglin. When I meet Nangong Xun, I can't help but lose control. I am not like myself at all.

The final result was that because the two brothers escaped punishment midway, they were again punished to kneel in the ancestral hall at home for a night.

The candles in the ancestral hall were brightly lit, and the memorial tablets of his ancestors were neatly placed inside. Nangong Xun didn't eat much for lunch, and he didn't eat much for dinner either. He was so hungry that he pressed his chest against his back and secretly went to get the food on the altar table. , Nangong Ling glared and retracted his hand.

Tang Ling found it funny.

Outsiders say that the little bully who controls everything in Nangong City is actually afraid of a thin little brother at home?

"Why are you angry?" Nangong Xun seemed to be unhappy with his subconscious actions. He raised his chin with his neck raised, pretending to be full of momentum, and imitated Nangong Fenglin's usual tone of lecturing him:

"You said you only have food, drink and fun in your mind? Is this the tone you use when talking to your brother? No matter how big or small you are!"

Nangong Ling ignored him, but Nangong Xun didn't think about offering food on the table anymore, but his stomach kept growling, echoing in the silent ancestral hall.

Too weak.

This is the state of Nangong Ling facing Nangong Xun these years.

Sometimes, no matter what, it's like a punch to cotton.

The two brothers were each feeling inexplicably sulky, but it was the older brother who spoke first.

"Those who work hard should not be let down."

Nangong Xun said this unexpectedly, and Nangong Ling was a little stunned for a moment. She didn't understand what he wanted to express at all. She just stared at him with a pair of clear black and white eyes, a little stupidly.

Nangong Xun was originally far away, but when he saw him looking over, he knelt and moved his knees, getting a little closer.

"I said, little brother, you won't forget, right? Those words you said to me in the government city five years ago?"

Nangong Ling really forgot, "After saying so much, which sentence are you referring to?"

"You said that you are not good at mechanism skills, you just work harder than others."

Nangong Xun leaned closer and continued, "You also said that you only sleep for two hours every night, plus other people's time for fun and rest, and you have been studying and practicing. Only by persisting year after year can you achieve success." A little achievement.”

"I ask you why you are working so hard? You said that in order not to be bullied by others, you have to be better than everyone else so that you can guard what you want to guard."

The memory of death suddenly attacked Nangong Ling.

He was actually a little ashamed.

He was still young at that time, and he suddenly encountered a life-threatening danger, and was rescued by someone as if "God descended from heaven". For a moment, he developed some inexplicable trust and dependence on that person, and actually said such words.

If he had known that the person was Nangong Xun at that time, he would never have said this.

Damn Xiao Hei, in order to watch the show, he didn't even think about reminding himself.

"Did I say that?" Nangong Ling pretended to be stupid, "What does this have to do with you saving me?"

"Because you work very hard," Nangong Xun said, "I admire you for trying so hard to hold on to something. People who work hard should not be let down, so I chose to save you."

"Nonsense!" Nangong Ling said, "I told you these words after you came to save me!"

"Look, you really said it." Nangong Xun was proud.

Nangong Ling suddenly fell silent, her face flushed with anger.

Nangong Xun had almost teased him, and his face suddenly became serious, but his lips were pursed and he still didn't dare to speak.

This appearance aroused Tang Ling's curiosity even more.     “What exactly do you want to say?”

"Say it first," Nangong Xun said, "I told you not to laugh at me."

"Is it a funny reason?"

"Not at all."

"Then tell me."

Nangong Xun struggled for a while, and his cheeks seemed to be a little red under the candlelight.

"I've always...wanted to have a sister."

Nangong Ling: "..."

Tang Ling: "..." Forgive her for not being able to connect the two things.

But Nangong Xun's face turned redder and redder under Nangong Ling's gaze, making Nangong Ling and Tang Ling confused.

"I have always been the youngest in the family. My elder brother and sister always called me short until you came."

Nangong Xun said, "Although he is a younger brother, he is very cute and cute. I am not the youngest anymore, so I am actually very happy."

There was silence in the ancestral hall for a moment, with only the sound of lights crackling and popping.

At this time, Nangong Ling's face also turned red.

He said gruffly, as if he wanted to show off his masculinity, "But...but...you're so cute!"

Nangong Xun stopped talking.

The ancestral hall fell into a brief silence again, and suddenly someone burst out laughing first. Then the two of them looked at the two red faces and burst into laughter.

"You said you won't laugh!" Nangong Xun protested dissatisfied.

"I didn't say that." Nangong Ling leaned over with a smile, still unwilling to be outdone.

It's true that he didn't say it.

Nangong Xun also reacted. He smiled and took his little brother into his arms, rubbing him for a while.

"You kid! Are you playing tricks on me with your brother?"

That's how it is sometimes.

I felt it was funny for no reason, and I started laughing for no reason.

If you ask me why, I can’t tell you, but I just want to laugh.

After finishing laughing inexplicably, Nangong Ling wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, still a little confused.

"So you came to save me because you couldn't bear to leave me, who is younger than you, and then you became the youngest?"

"Am I that kind of person?" Nangong Xun rolled his eyes, the atmosphere became more relaxed, and he spoke more fluently.

"No matter who it is, I will never leave it alone." Nangong Xun said righteously, "This is what a man does!" "

"But at that time, you clearly hated me and always made things difficult for me secretly." Nangong Ling said.

"I was still young at that time, and my mother...my mother had just died a few years ago, and I always had a knot in my heart." Nangong Xun said, "I figured it out later, but you always kept to yourself, and you didn't do anything. You are not gregarious, I don’t know how to get along with you, and I want to attract your attention, so I have to..."

"Bullying?" Nangong Ling curled her lips, "The way you take care of others is really scary. You will be pitied to death by the girl you like in the future."

"Tsk! Your skin is itchy, right?"

So this is ah.

When Tang Ling heard Nangong Ling sigh in his heart, he knew that Xiao Hei had used magic again to spy on Nangong Ling's inner thoughts.

It turns out... I was overthinking it again.

Nangong Ling sighed.

"But brother, I feel like you really don't want anything. You really just like to eat, drink and have fun."

After sighing, Nangong Ling took the opportunity to ask another doubt in his heart.

"Well, of course not." Nangong Xun said, "I have really thought about this issue in the past two years."

"Have you figured out the answer?" Nangong Ling asked curiously.

"Ah."

"Then what do you want?"

"free."
