reborn just to love you

It didn't take long for the few people to sit down, and the food was brought up by Xiao Er one after another. The aroma of the food was very attractive.

But this alluring fragrance didn't make anyone except Long Ao move their index fingers.

Obviously, at this moment, the minds of these three people are not on the dishes on the table.

Long Ao ignored them, picked up the chopsticks and started to eat. She was really hungry, so she was too lazy to be courteous to them.

After eating and drinking enough, Long Ao just put down the chopsticks in satisfaction. Seeing Long Ao put down the chopsticks, the three of Zi Yuxuan also put down the chopsticks in their hands at the same time.

The three of them didn't eat much, they were obviously waiting for Long Ao. After putting down the chopsticks, Zi Yuxuan nodded towards the two of them.

After receiving the girl's message, the two didn't speak, but stood up at the same time, walked out and closed the door.

Seeing the two leave, Long Ao narrowed her eyes, she knew the important point was coming.

In fact, she was a little curious. Logically speaking, her mission this time can be said to have come to a successful conclusion.

Therefore, the employment relationship between them should be over, and Zi Yuxuan has entered Shengding Academy safely, so what is the point of this girl keeping her!

Leaning back and looking at Zi Yuxuan, the young man seemed a little lazy at this moment.

Looking at the lazy boy, Zi Yuxuan pondered for a moment, as if thinking about how to speak.

My surname is Zi, Zi Yuxuan's Zi, and Zi Yuxuan spoke the first sentence, emphasizing his surname.

Hearing Zi Yuxuan's words, Long Ao raised her eyebrows. She understood the meaning of Zi Yuxuan's words, and also understood the reason why the other party emphasized her surname.

Therefore, she also understood the true meaning of Zi Yuxuan's surname.

The Zi surname is actually not a rare surname on this continent, but Zi Yuxuan's Zi surname refers to the surname of the four major families.

On the Tianyan Continent, there are ten sects and four great families, Bai, Zi, Qin, and Qi. They are the top existences on this continent.

But to Long Ao, these didn't mean anything to her, because she would neither feel fear and reverence for it, nor would she yearn for it.

Therefore, Long Ao just answered calmly, "And then?"

Zi Yu hesitated for a moment, then smiled softly, Long Ao's reaction was within her expectations, but also beyond her expectations.

"Our family has a rule," looking at Long Ao, Zi Yuxuan spoke again.

"At our 16-year-old coming-of-age ceremony, all direct descendants of the family must complete a trial, and the purpose of this trial is to select the next successor of the family."

"This trial lasts for ten years. During these ten years, the family will not provide any help to anyone."

"So Grandpa Li and Qingshan will rush back to the family tomorrow, and in the past ten years, all the things we can use are all we have accumulated in the past 16 years."

"Because I am the only girl in the direct descendants of the family, and above me are all elders and my brothers."

"So, in the family, my grandfather loved me more since I was a child, but it is precisely because of this reason that I became a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of all of them."

"They regard me as a strong contender for the heir, and also as the biggest obstacle preventing them from becoming the heir."

"So, as long as they have the opportunity, they will try to get rid of me at all costs."

"And the reason why I chose to take such a long detour this time and go to such a remote place is to avoid them."

"But I didn't expect to be targeted by them in the end. This time, if it wasn't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the chance to sit here again."

"I just did what I should do. After all, I have accepted this task. Naturally, I must ensure your safety. This is my principle."

"Anyway, this time, I still thank you very much for leaving you alone in the forest."

I would like to express my apology to you again, I know that apology does not mean anything, but please allow me to apologize to you here," said Zi Yuxuan and bent down towards Long Ao.

"Miss Zi, this is the end of the apology! Next, let's talk about some serious business first."Long Ao's cold voice carried a little impatience.

She didn't care about the fact that everyone left her behind in the forest. After all, the decision to ask everyone to leave was her own request.

Besides, as a mercenary, ensuring the safety of the employer is the most important thing, and this is also the task she should complete as a mercenary.

"Ah! Sorry", hearing the impatience in Long Ao's tone, Zi Yuxuan froze for a moment, then sat down.

Looking at Long Ao, Zi Yuxuan's expression at this time was quite dignified, "Long Ao, I still have one year to graduate from Shengding Academy."

"So, I hope that in this year's time, I can hire you to be my guard to protect the safety of me."

"Oh why"?Long Ao narrowed his eyes, showing a very interested look."

"Because you are strong enough," Zi Yuxuan said in a deep voice.

Ha ha!Long Ao chuckled, "What else?"Long Ao asked casually.She is really curious.

Generally speaking, it should be very safe in the academy, but why did Zi Yuxuan hire people to protect herself.

"I think you should also know that Shengding Academy is the number one academy on the entire continent."

"But at the same time, Shengding Academy is also a relatively special academy, so it does not oppose the struggle among students, but rather advocates it."

"However, the exchanges between students are all carried out through challenges, which is an act that can be refused, and there is no great danger."

"However, the real danger comes from outside the academy, because of the aggressive character developed in the academy, coupled with the fact that young people are very impulsive."

"Therefore, it is inevitable that some unnecessary troubles will be caused, and the college will not intervene or intervene in the troubles caused by these students themselves, but choose to ignore them."

"But on the other hand, for the safety of the students, the academy will allow each student to bring one or two guards to protect their own safety."

"But these two guards must have official identities before they can freely enter and leave the academy."

"So this identity can be a student, a mentor, or even something else."

"You mean, let me become a student of Shengding Academy so that I can protect you conveniently," Long Ao's tone was a bit strange.

"Ah! That's not what I meant, Zi Yuxuan wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, "With your current cultivation, you can definitely become the tutor of Shengding Academy."

"However, your age is there after all, so whether you become a student or a mentor, you will definitely attract the attention of others."

"But compared with the status of a student, the status of a tutor can help you avoid a lot of troubles," Zi Yuxuan said.

In any case, no matter where Long Ao's cultivation base is, she has no intention of letting him become a student. After all, this is unrealistic. No matter how you think about it, it is unrealistic for a sword king to apply for the academy.

"I don't like to attract attention," Long Ao said slowly after listening to Zi Yuxuan's words, "Besides, I also hate unnecessary troubles."

Your current attire is already very eye-catching, Zi Yuxuan couldn't help complaining silently in her heart.

"It would be more convenient to protect you as a student," Long Ao thought for a moment, then continued.

"Yes", Zi Yuxuan nodded in doubt. According to what Long Ao said just now, if he doesn't want to attract too much attention, he can't use these two identities.

Since none of them can be used, what's the point of him asking this?

"What is the admissions standard of Shengding College?"Ignoring Zi Yuxuan's doubts, Long Ao continued to ask.

"Shengding Academy's admission criteria are about 20 to [-] years old, and each age group has different requirements for cultivation."

"Long Ao, how old are you now?"Zi Yuxuan spoke hesitantly.She has always been curious about Long Ao's age.

"Fifteen", Long Ao said.It's just that her eyes are a little erratic at this time, obviously thinking about other things.

"fifteen"!Zi Yu swallowed her saliva, Long Ao's answer was beyond her expectation.

In fact, it's not that she hasn't guessed Long Ao's age before, but she guessed that Long Ao's age should be about ten years old.

Although Long Ao's appearance looks younger, but his strength is too strong, and this guess is already a difficult thing for Zi Yuxuan to accept.

But what she never expected was that Long Ao was even one year younger than her.

Think about yourself who is called a genius, and think about Long Ao's cultivation at this time. From birth to now, Zi Yuxuan felt powerless for the first time.

"What is the standard enrollment standard for 15-year-olds"?After hearing no answer, Long Ao asked again.

"The 15-year-old enrollment standard is kendo cultivation, and the cultivation level must reach the elementary level of kendo," Zi Yuxuan said.

But at this time, she looked at Long Ao with complicated eyes. She has always been called a genius by everyone, and she herself thinks so.

Because among her peers in the family, her cultivation level can be said to be the strongest, but this young man who appeared suddenly shattered her pride and self-confidence all along in an instant.

Is it because she hasn't tried hard enough?Zi Yu clenched her fists tightly.

Glancing at Long Ao, the girl pursed her lips tightly. Doesn't the appearance of this young man prove that she is not enough?

Doesn't it mean that she is still far behind?Since you are not working hard enough, just work harder and work harder than before.

Since you haven't paid enough, it's fine to give more in the future than now.

She is called a genius by everyone, but in this world, is there no one with better talent than her?

Therefore, instead of sitting here and feeling lost, it is better to turn it into motivation and regard this young man as a goal that must be surpassed.

Looking at Long Ao, Zi Yuxuan's eyes were full of fighting spirit.
