Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1216 Old Master Nan’s Bias



The gate opened and the three of them walked inside. Their servants were following them from a distance, except for Nan Hua’s. Her maidservants were not following her yet because she had other things for them to do.

Chu Yue was still in Xia Mountain while Mu Yan was in Heng Xing City in Fei Yang Kingdom. She was taking care of her aunt, Nan Si Qiao, and also her small cousin, the little baby Feng Ao Qian. Xiao Yun and Ran were at Yi Shang Temple, pretending that Nan Hua was there.

As for male servants?

Aside from some assassins following her from a distance that she had arranged, no one else would be able to get close to her.

Looking at the garden, Nan Luo sighed. “Whoever owned this place before have poor sense of beauty.”

Feng Ao Si: “…”

He really couldn’t say anything. When he saw the plants chosen at the front yard and the servants who were busy cleaning it up, he could guess how bad it used to be. Even as a stupid person, he also had aesthetic sense, alright?

They walked inside and Nan Luo waved his hand, dismissing Xiao Yan who was following him.

Dai looked at Feng Ao Si and then at Xiao Yan before retreating to the back. Even if they actually knew some things, it would be better to pretend that they knew nothing rather than putting themselves at risk.

They walked to the back yard and saw Old Master Nan was sitting on the chair, looking in their direction. “So you finally come here, brats?”

“Grandfather!” Nan Luo greeted loudly.

“Grandfather!” Feng Ao Si followed suit.

Nan Hua didn’t greet Old Master Nan and instead looked at the steward that was waiting for Old Master Nan at the side. The fewer people who knew her real identity the better, so she had no intention to let Steward Tou, the second steward who also followed her grandfather, to know about her real identity.

“You can go back, Tou.”

“Yes, Old Master.” Steward Tou bowed and then walked away. He was younger than Steward Tong but he had been working for Nan Family from when he was very young to manage many things here.

“I have heard about the deeds you do on the battlefield.” Old Master Nan nodded at his two grandchildren.

“Well, we didn’t exactly get a lot of merits this time.” Nan Luo scratched the back of his head and smiled sheepishly. In fact, he felt that his current position was a bit too low to play many important roles during the battle. This made him felt the pressure to reach higher ranks as fast as possible.

“I’ll do better, Grandfather.” Feng Ao Si nodded.

Old Master Nan shook his head and beckoned for them to sit not far from him. Looking at his grandchildren who had grown up, he felt that time was moving so fast. In the past, these brats were still running on the field like children. But now, they had grown up and would go on their own, spreading their wings out.

He felt gratified when he thought of them doing well.

Still….

“Feng Ao Si, I heard that you’re charging head on blindly again during the first day of the battle?” Old Master Nan narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Feng Ao Si felt sweat on his back when he was being stared by his grandfather. He wanted to curse whoever tip off the matter to his grandfather. “Grandfather, I just… climb the stairs?”

“Climbing the stairs without any preparation whatsoever. Do you really think that your body is made of iron? Go run on 10 laps and don’t you dare to be lazy or I’ll increase it twice.” Old Master Nan snorted.

Feng Ao Si’s lips twitched. He opened his mouth, wanting to refute. But in the end, his body was more honest as he stood up and walked to the side, ready to begin his run. He felt that he really shouldn’t come back because his grandfather would only punish him.

Oh how bad fate worked for him…

Hou Lin looked at Feng Ao Si and sighed silently. He stood at the side, ready to count the lap Feng Ao Si had done.

“Grandfather…” Nan Luo called out weakly. He could faintly recall that he didn’t seem to be doing so well without Nan Hua’s help either.

“You’re not bad in terms of combat. However, without Feng Ao Kuai helping you, you’ve become even more reckless and didn’t utilize your advantage to your fullest. Go and accompany Feng Ao Si and run 10 laps, Nan Luo!”

Nan Luo looked at the sky in despair and could only stand up and ran the laps with Feng Ao Si. He sighed deeply that this time, he only come back to face punishment by his grandfather.

Old Master Nan looked at Nan Hua and his gaze softened. “You shouldn’t have been so reckless! Do you know that you’re going to put yourself in danger by putting yourself at the frontline?”

“I know, Grandpa,” Nan Hua answered obediently.

As the adjutant, Nan Hua was only helping Nan Luo and did some help at the side. She was not really attracting that much attention lately.

“Come here.”

Nan Hua stepped forward obediently.

Old Master Nan raised his finger and lightly tapped on Nan Hua’s forehead. He sighed deeply and feel that his granddaughter is too good. So good that it was really impossible to hide her so that no one would be able to take notice of her and coveted her for her brilliance.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes.

Her black obsidian pupil was staring straight at Old Master Nan.

“You did good.” Old Master Nan then patted Nan Hua’s hair tenderly before turning to look at the two brats who were running their laps.

Hou Lin rolled his eyes at the side. Old Master Nan’s bias was so painfully clear that these brats would definitely cry when they saw the difference in treatment. Even he wondered how these three managed to survive when Old Master Nan was giving such differential treatment right in front of their eyes.

But of course, if they ever felt jealous, Old Master Nan can just give them one requirement:

Defeat Nan Hua.

The three of them would definitely be fleeing with their tails tucked on their back.

That was an impossible level mission!
