Crossing the Gods as Slaves

Chapter 202: Comfort (1)

Seeing the commander and Ning Hua walking into the hall of the mansion hand in hand, Tis immediately stood up from the sofa, took a few steps forward and saluted Lu Xiu: "Your Highness."

Perhaps because Tis was not wearing a skirt, she did not perform the popular kneeling salute among the nobles to the commander. Instead, she stood at attention, crossed her right hand across her chest, and performed a simple military salute.

When Lu Xiu saw the courtesy performed by Tis, he was stunned for a moment, but he immediately understood that Tis had spontaneously changed her identity. She was no longer the wife of His Highness Richid of the Leeds Galaxy, but his former subordinate, the Air Force officer, Lieutenant Tis.

Ning Hua didn't know the reason, and thought that this was the etiquette that a noble girl should show to the commander when she was not wearing a skirt. She secretly sighed that there were so many etiquettes in the upper class...

Lu Xiu nodded lightly towards Tis: "No need to be polite."

Tis put down his right hand that was across his chest and gave the commander a polite smile: "Your Highness, Tis came here directly without an appointment. I hope you don't mind."

"It's okay. You've been waiting for a long time, right? Why don't you come upstairs and talk with me?"

"Thank you, Your Highness." Tis said, and stepped back two steps to make room for the commander to go ahead. Although she was wearing high heels and a casual dress, her posture as she stepped back still maintained the proper demeanor of a soldier, neat and composed.

Ning Hua was held by the commander's hand and came to the door of the study.

"Your Highness, how about I go back to my room and you two talk slowly?"

In front of Tis, Ning Hua didn't feel comfortable calling the commander by his name, so she called him "Your Highness", which caused the commander to give her a warning glance.

Ning Hua ignored the warning, turned around and said to Tis with a smile: "Miss Tis, I'm leaving first, you two can chat slowly."

"It's okay, let's chat together. His Highness might be more willing to talk with you around." After saying this, Tis glanced at the commander with a smile in his eyes.

The commander immediately agreed: "Okay, come in."

After the commander went in, Tis gestured "please" to Ning Hua, asking her to go first. Ning Hua nodded and thanked her with a smile.

After sitting down, Lu Xiu pressed the communication button, asking the guard to come in and serve tea, and then took the initiative to start the conversation.

"How have you been, Tis?"

Tis's mouth was bitter, but he still nodded: "I'm fine, Your Highness, how are you doing recently?"

Lu Xiu smiled and said, "Ning Hua and I are doing well, everything is going well."

Ning Hua was immediately embarrassed. Tis asked the commander "how are you doing", but what did he answer...

As expected, Tis looked at Ning Hua meaningfully and said, "That's great. I'm really happy for you. Thank you for taking care of Asene. Last time, she even asked me when she could come to see you again."

"Really? Did Asini ask about me? She can come anytime. Her Highness will be visiting the Eastern Union Star System soon. It would be boring for me to stay alone in the mansion..."

"Well, she's in the first grade now. I'll bring her here on weekends..." When Tis said this, he suddenly realized that his current situation was not suitable for him to say this, so he added, "Or when His Highness Sid is free, he will bring her to see you..."

Ning Hua was not clear about the specific situation between Tis and Sid, so he did not notice any difference in the latter sentence, but Lu Xiu noticed it keenly.
