Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 1945  Night Date (2)

All the troubles and other matters in the days seemed to be washed away by the waves.

There was nothing but the presence of the other party beside them. Nan Hua could sense Long Qian Xing’s gaze and turned to look in his direction. She smiled faintly and called out, “Brother Long?”

He often sneaked a look in her direction and since he didn’t seem to be hiding it at all, Nan Hua could sense it every single time. It was not like she didn’t look in his direction from time to time, but it was definitely not as often as him. Or it might be because she could sense his presence not far from her, so she didn’t really need to look in his direction. But either way, it felt comforting to have each other’s presence. Long Qian Xing smiled in response and then said, “You’re beautiful, Hua’er.”

Nan Hua blinked her eyes at the sudden praise from Long Qian Xing. If Nan Hua had to say, there were countless people who have praised her for her beauty because Nan Hua’s face was truly one that could bring down kingdoms. There were not many people with such devastating beauty, but whenever there was one, they would be able to cause a lot of troubles if they wanted to with their beauty alone. But there were always some people who were genuinely saying it to her.

For nothing else but appreciation for beauty. Nan Hua kept her faint smile and then said, “You’re also very handsome, Brother Long.”

Long Qian Xing chuckled and nodded. Nan Hua was not lying. In terms of appearance, Long Qian Xing was still considered to be very good. Even if it was not to the point of Nan Hua where her appearance alone was enough to bring down cities, it was still very handsome. The two of them continued to walk side by side.

Long Qian Xing kept holding on Nan Hua’s hand, feeling the softness and also roughness of the skin very clearly. He liked holding her hands as it felt really good. And Nan Hua herself never refused.

She herself felt that it was really good.

After some time walking around aimlessly on the beach, Long Qian Xing walked to the water, letting their legs got wet. Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing curiously, but she still followed him. The sea water felt a bit cold, but it was not unbearable. If anything, it was more cool for the two of them due to their high martial arts. Of course, this didn’t mean that they would never fall sick but the chance for them to get sick was lower. Having healthy and strong body was indeed very good as they didn’t have to worry so much about these matters. At most, they would have to remember to pay attention to some things from time to time. “How about if we try some night fishing? I heard that fishes at night are more active compared to the fishes during the day,” Long Qian Xing asked. Nan Hua arched her eyebrows slightly. “Are you hungry, Brother Long?”

“No, I just feel that it’s fun. How about a little challenge on who could fish the most? The reward… the loser will do whatever the winner asks him or her to do?” Long Qian Xing asked after contemplating. He felt that this should be a good activity. Besides, neither of the two would be worried about getting wet and fall sick. For them who have excellent physical quality, playing with water at night would not have much effect. They just have to remember to dry themselves after this and not stay wet all night long. Their body wouldn’t be able to stand such torture either. Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and then smiled faintly. She had never been afraid of challenge, especially a small and fun challenge like this. “Time limit?”

“Half an incense stick of time. I think I have some ordinary incense stick that’s used for time. I’ll set it up at the rocks over there, ok?”

“Ok.”

The two of them walked to the rocks and then Long Qian Xing placed the incense stick on top of the rock. It was indeed the standard incense stick that was commonly used to mark the time in this era. After living for more than a decade here, Nan Hua had long gotten used to their way to call some things, including time. Long Qian Xing made a marker at half of the incense stick. “Any restriction for the weapons?” Nan Hua asked again, confirming the rules for them. “No.” Long Qian Xing shook his head. It was not like they have guns in this era where it would be very cheating. Since their methods would be similar to each other, he didn’t think that there was any need to limit the weapon. “Are you sure?” Nan Hua asked again. Her eyes were looking at Long Qian Xing directly. Aside from some doubt, one could see a hint of mischievousness within. Long Qian Xing looked in Nan Hua’s direction and smiled. He always felt happy when he saw Nan Hua’s various expression. In the beginning, Nan Hua almost had no emotions at all, very cold and indifferent to the world. Now, he could see various hints from her eyes and even her mouth started to show more and more smiles. He’s happy. “Don’t worry, you can use any weapons you want,” Long Qian Xing said with a grin. If Nan Hua thought that a certain weapon could help her to win this battle, he would prove her that she’s wrong. “Ok.” Nan Hua looked at the incense stick. “Lit it up and don’t make it easy for me.”

“I won’t.” Long Qian Xing chuckled and then lit up the incense stick. Challenge accepted. After that, both of them ran in the opposite direction towards the water. There was only half an incense of stick time, so they had to hurry.
