"What are you comparing with Miss Nangong? What do you have to compare with Miss Nangong?" Ling Qian was very disdainful when he heard this.

Those who knew Nangong Xi's identity also looked at Jiang Ying with disdain.

She is the powerful savior of Xiaosha City. How can Jiang Ying, a young lady from a noble family, compare with her?

"Miss Nangong? The Young City Lord calls her so affectionately, but I wonder what's so special about Miss Nangong?" Jiang Ying's words made everyone present gasp.

Jiang Ying was very proud seeing this!

She thought everyone was applauding her courage!

"What's so extraordinary about this girl is not your business." After saying this, Nangong Xi picked up the spiritual fruit in front of her and started eating.

"Arrogant." Jiang Ying felt that Nangong Xi was just a person who relied on Ling Qian to show off his power.

"This girl is indeed quite arrogant." Nangong Xi showed her domineering aura.

"You are just relying on Brother Qian. What right do you have to be so arrogant?" Jiang Ying's eyes were full of disdain.

"How dare you, Jiang Ying! Who allowed you to be so disrespectful to the distinguished guests of my City Lord's Mansion?" The City Lord suddenly slammed the table, and everyone was shocked.

"Uncle City Lord, I didn't mean it." Jiang Ying said pitifully upon hearing that.

"Ying'er, this Miss Nangong is the protagonist of today's banquet. She has saved the entire Xiaosha City." The head of the Jiang family spoke up when he saw that things were developing in an uncontrollable direction.

Jiang Ying was dumbfounded when she heard this. She never dreamed that Nangong Xi was the savior girl praised by everyone in the city.

"Apologize." The city lord looked at Jiang Ying coldly.

I used to think that Jiang Ying was a good girl, and I even wanted to bring her together with Ling Qian, but now it seems that she is really not suitable.

When Jiang Ying saw the city lord speaking harshly to her, she couldn't help but tear up.

She bit her lip and refused to apologize.

Nangong Xi: ...

It was just an apology, why do you look like you're being abused?

"This is an order." Seeing that Jiang Ying was slow to apologize, the city lord's tone became even colder.

"Yes... I'm sorry." Under the pressure of the city lord, Jiang Ying had no choice but to apologize to Nangong Xi.

"What? I can't hear you." Nangong Xi looked at her while chewing the spiritual fruit in her hand.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Seeing everyone's eyes were on him, Jiang Ying suddenly shouted loudly.

"Okay, okay, I won't bother with you anymore." Nangong Xi said compassionately.

Jiang Ying returned to his seat upon hearing this and drank a glass of wine with a grim face.

Upon seeing this, the guests present knew that it would be almost impossible for Jiang Ying to marry into the City Lord's Mansion in the future.

"Miss Nangong, I heard that you are an animal tamer?" An old man among the guests looked at Nangong Xi with a gloomy look.

"That's true." Nangong Xi nodded.

The man was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect Nangong Xi to admit it so readily.

When everyone present heard this, their eyes immediately became hot.

"I wonder what the price is for asking Miss Nangong to tame the beast?" The old man, who was not the old man of the Liao family, looked at Nangong Xi with a gleam in his eyes.

"I don't do animal training business. Animal training all depends on my mood." Nangong Xi replied.

When Mr. Liao heard this, a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

The others also looked disappointed.

"Miss Nangong, this is a magical beast that I have captured for many years but no trainer has been able to tame. I wonder if Miss Nangong is willing to give it a try?" After saying this, Grandpa Liao threw out a beast cage.

Nangong Xi took a look and saw that it was just a divine beast, and no trainer could tame it.

"Not interested." Nangong Xi said lightly.

"Is it because you can't tame it or you are not interested?" Mr. Liao actually used the method of provoking the enemy.

"Whatever you think." Nangong Xi looked indifferent.

"Grandpa, my dowry doesn't necessarily have to be a magical beast. You don't have to beg others for me." As soon as the words fell, a woman in plain clothes walked in.

The first time he saw her, Nangong Xi felt a familiar breath.

It’s not that this person is familiar, but she exudes a sense of déjà vu.

"Ying'er, grandpa will find a way to do what he promised you." Old Master Liao looked at Liao Ying who was walking towards him with loving eyes.

"My Lord City Lord, I'm so sorry. Ying'er was chatting with the old lady in the hospital just now, and she forgot the time and became late." Liao Ying first apologized to the City Lord.

Everyone present was very surprised when they heard this!

They didn't expect that Liao Ying was so loved by the old lady of the City Lord's Mansion.

You should know that this old lady has been staying in the Buddhist temple in the City Lord's Mansion for many years and rarely interacts with outsiders.

"The old lady likes you, so she asked you to talk more. It doesn't matter if you are late. Please take a seat." The city lord said with a smile.

"Thank you, City Lord." After saying this, Liao Ying walked to the seat next to Mr. Liao and sat down.

Her eyes swept over Nangong Xi intentionally or unintentionally, and she thought that one day, that position would belong to her.

"Miss Nangong, I heard that you saved Xiaosha City. I really admire you." Liao Ying said in the direction of Nangong Xi.

"The five-star red flag..."

"Flying in the wind..."

Nangong Xi originally just wanted to test it out, but who knew that Liao Ying would actually pick up the phone.

Only then did Nangong Xi understand where that familiar feeling towards Liao Ying came from.

It turns out that Liao Ying is also from the modern era, but she seems to have some evil intentions.

"Fellow countryman?" Liao Ying looked at Nangong Xi in surprise.

"That's right." Nangong Xi nodded.

Although I am originally from this era, the years I spent in modern times are my best memories.

Modern is also my hometown, which carries my dreams and expectations.

It's a wonderful place. When I'm done here, I must go back.

"Since we are from the same hometown, you should help me even more." Liao Ying said as if it was a matter of course.

"There is no right or wrong. I don't owe you anything." Nangong Xi was speechless.

"We all come from the same place, shouldn't we support each other?" Liao Ying couldn't control her emotions.

"It shouldn't be like this. There's a huge gap in our strength." Nangong Xi shook her head. The most important thing was that she discovered that Liao Ying's soul was actually black.

It seems that she is not a good person in modern times either.

"You're from that place, have you forgotten that everyone is equal there?" Liao Ying said and looked at Nangong Xi.

"Although everyone is equal, there is still a gap between the rich and the poor. Besides, the strong are respected here. Don't you understand that when in Rome, do as the Romans do?" Nangong Xi's tone was extremely cold.

The Liao family fell silent after hearing this!

The strong are respected here. I knew this on the first day I arrived here.

It's just that the body I traveled through has low talent, and I couldn't find a good teacher to teach me how to practice, so my strength always stagnated.

At this moment, the old lady of the City Lord's Mansion came over with the help of servants.
