Julian and Daining looked at each other.

Before they could answer, the young man who claimed to be Dylan rushed to Julian's side, walked half a circle around him, grabbed his hand and touched it twice.The boy was taken aback by this move, he even forgot to shake him off, and just stared at his every move stupidly.

"Yeah, yum~" Dylan finished, touched the crystal ball in his hand, closed his eyes pretendingly, and said after a long time: "I can see... this little blonde beauty had a hard time as a child." But fortunately, you met a noble person, and it has been much smoother since then. However, there is more than one noble person who has the ability to protect you. If you have the opportunity, you can try other flavors, and you may become richer and richer. ~"

After Dylan finished speaking, he winked playfully at Julian.

After the boy heard it, he was stunned.He didn't take the fortune-telling proposal seriously at first, but what Dylan said, although very general, coincided with his own experience—especially the word "noble person".But what happened to the last sentence?He stared blankly at the young man, and after a long time he managed to say, "What do you mean by changing your taste?"

"You will know about Luo when the opportunity comes." Dylan rolled his eyes and fooled him without further explanation.

When the young man was reading Julian's fortune on his own, Dai Ning kept looking at him with raised eyebrows.It wasn't until he finished speaking that the young man said coolly: "It seems quite powerful, why don't you let me figure it out?"

"Of course, of course, it is necessary..."

Dylan rubbed his hands, walked around Dai Ning with the crystal ball, and touched his hand.Then, the young man smiled and said something unexpected——

"This young master doesn't have a long life."

The scene immediately cooled down.Life is not too long?What's the meaning?This sentence was so shocking that Julian couldn't understand what this man who inexplicably called himself a fortuneteller was talking about.On the contrary, the Lord who was said to be short-lived looked at the fortune-teller who said he was short-lived, with a cloudy expression on his face, and he laughed out loud after a long while.

"Do you want to do business like this, or are you taking a slant? Let me think about it..." Dai Ning tilted his head, squinted his eyes, and raised his eyebrows, "Are you waiting for me to ask 'what does the master have? The way to save it, please save the little one'?"

Dylan froze for a moment, then burst out laughing.But just after he laughed for the first time, he realized that it was the middle of the night, and it was not easy to disturb people's dreams, so he immediately covered his voice and laughed muffled.His shoulders kept shaking violently, as if Dai Ning had said some funny joke.

"Hehe, hehehe, the young master quite understands the ways of our profession, so I can't seem to fool you anymore."

"You still have a long way to go to scare me." Dai Ning also chuckled twice, "Okay, we really should go. Don't tell me, we sneaked out from the mage's tower for supper Yes, if you don’t go back, you’ll be in trouble. So don’t pester us any more.”

"Oh, so that's the case. Then I'm leaving too... I wish you two a safe journey on the way back."

Dylan stuffed the crystal ball back into his bag and waved to them, "The next time we meet again, let me take you to play! Two guests from abroad~"

Dai Ning and Julian finally got rid of Dylan and started on their way again.Because they were delayed for a long time, the two walked quickly along the way. They climbed into the wall and tiptoed to the back door of the dormitory. When they finally returned to the building, they breathed a sigh of relief.

"He said we'll meet again next time...he wants to take us to play." Julian said softly to Dai Ning.

"It's not necessarily...we can meet again, right? We don't...every night...sneak out."

Dai Ning said while panting.Magicians generally do not exercise enough. Dai Ning can be regarded as a frequent hunter and jumper with his father or sisters, but even after running like this, he also feels that his breathing is not smooth.

"...I met a strange person."

He added this sentence.Julian looked at his friend's expression, obviously he was said such unlucky words, but Dai Ning didn't seem to care much, instead he was still smiling faintly.

"I thought you would be angry. When he said that your life is not long, I was really shocked..." Julian grabbed Dai Ning's hand and said uncomfortably: "After all, he told my story quite accurately. ..."

"You're so naive, Julian." Denning rubbed his fingers, "Look, your hands feel a little rough to the touch. He probably judged that you have done rough work based on this, so it can be inferred that you have done rough work before. You are not doing well. But now you are wearing clothes of good quality and even jewelry. These are not things that you can own on your own at this age, so it is presumed that you have a noble person, that is probably nine out of ten Medium. As long as you grasp these two key points, and add more fuel and jealousy, you can be bluffed."

"Ah..." Julian was stunned when he heard his friend's analysis.He didn't expect that there were so many clues on him that could allow people to deduce his details.

"This is the truth of fortune-telling. It is not difficult to tell the past, but the future is mostly nonsense. Since it is nonsense, why should I care about it? He just wanted to kidnap me for money, but he failed."

"It turned out to be like this. It made me really worried. That's good." Seeing that the victim was so indifferent, Julian finally felt relieved.But Dai Ning really has a big heart, he couldn't help thinking.How many people can be said to be short-lived in person and still not get angry?

"Just listen to what the fortune teller says, and don't take it too seriously."

"makes sense…"

Just as Julian was relieved, a voice came faintly from behind:

"Why are you here?"

"!"

Both of them startled the boss for an instant, turned their heads, and saw Carter standing behind them holding a small oil lamp.Julian's heart was about to jump into his throat. Looking at Carter's expressionless face, the young man who had just committed a foul felt guilty.But Dai Ning on the side is an old fritter, he just smiled, and then asked lightly: "Then why are you here?"

"I just went to help the teacher sort out the files." Carter said lightly.This reason is reasonable and there is nothing wrong with it. Dai Ning rolled his eyes and said, "Just now we went to Mr. Tifeng's room to discuss the key points of terrain defense that Lord Melda said today. The discussion was a bit late."

Julian felt a little anxious when he heard that, he secretly tugged on Dai Ning's sleeve, but the boy ignored him.Is it okay to tell such a lie?And it's still a lie that I didn't set up a good trick with the client!What if, what if...

"Tifeng?" Carter tilted his head. "Oh, that one from the north... You guys are serious." He smiled, but Julian always felt that smile looked very stiff.

"If there's nothing else, I'm going to bed." Dai Ning yawned deliberately, then patted Julian on the shoulder, "Good night."

"Oh, um, then I too..." Julian nodded to Carter, turned around and held the doorknob of his own room, and when he was about to open the door, the boy's voice came from behind: "Please wait a moment."

Both Julian and Daining looked back at him.Dying frowned displeasedly, and when he was thinking about what this man wanted to do, Carter kept staring at Julian—to be precise, at Julian's hand.Julian noticed it himself. He raised his hand suspiciously and found that what Carter was looking at was the ring on his hand.

"...That..." Carter opened his mouth hesitantly for a long time, and finally choked out a sentence: "...that ring...can you lend me a look?"

Julian was stunned, he looked at Dai Ning, the latter didn't shake his head or nod, probably let him decide for himself.The young man bit his lip, pulled out the ring with great reluctance, and handed it to Carter: "If you want to see it... But, this, this is not... a rare thing..."

"Thank you." Carter ignored his intermittent words, took it over, raised the oil lamp and looked carefully.When the light shone on, a ray of light like golden sand shot up from the fiery orange gem on the ring, which was incredibly clear, converging towards the direction of the light, flowing and changing... Carter's eyes widened slightly , staring at the gemstone, looking a little fascinated.

Julian, who was standing next to him, didn't move when he stared at him. After watching him for a while, he didn't intend to pay it back, and he was sweating anxiously.Dai Ning couldn't stand it anymore, coughed twice, and then brought Carter's attention back.

The boy turned the ring around and glanced at it twice before giving it back to Julian.After looking at other people's things for so long, he didn't show any embarrassment, just said lightly: "Thank you. Although I can't see the name, but I think it's a good thing. The teacher said you have a fetish, and you are right. .”

Julian hurriedly put the ring back on his hand, and didn't know how to respond to him for a moment, and finally he only whispered: "As long as it is given by our adults... I think it's fine."

Carter smiled, then nodded to the two, "It's late at night, and I'm going to sleep too, good night, both of you." Then he opened the door and walked into the room.

Julian forgot to take a look at Dai Ning, and then found that Dai Ning was also looking at him.The boy looked at the ring on his hand with curious eyes, but in the end he just stretched out his hand and rubbed it randomly on the top of his head.

"...I'll ask you about the ring tomorrow. Go to sleep, good night."

"OK, good night."
