Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Prince Yang Zhou nodded and waved his hand. A servant walked forward and put down an exquisite box in front of Nan Luo and Nan Hua. Just from the looks of it, whatever was inside shouldn't have been cheap.

Nan Luo took it and opened the exquisite box. "Your Highness, is this not too much?"

There were two jade bracelets inside. Jade was an expensive material and was certainly known as one of the best. It wouldn't be easy to get.

"It's nothing much. Do you dislike it?" Prince Yang Zhou asked back.

"We like it. Thank you very much, Your Highness." Nan Hua closed the box and put it on Nan Luo's lap. She looked at the two of them and stood up. "It's going late. Grandfather would be worried if we didn't return soon."

"Are you in such a hurry?" Long Qian Xing chuckled. He stood up and bent closer to Nan Hua. In his hand was a simple necklace. "Stay still."

"Your Highness?" Nan Hua furrowed her brows. She didn't really like jewelries that could hinder her movement.

"This is my present for you. Wouldn't you let me wear it for you?" Long Qian Xing asked while smiling. His two hands moved to help Nan Hua wear it. All the time, he could see her pitch black eyes staring straight in his direction.

At the side, Xiao Yun was doing whatever she could to not step forward and stop Long Qian Xing. They were in the presence of His Highness, and she certainly couldn't possibly just step forward.

It was so vexing.

And why was her Miss just stand there and let him do whatever he wanted, ah?

Xiao Yun wanted to cry but no tears came out.

"Is it done?" Nan Hua asked when she sensed Long Qian Xing not moving.

Long Qian Xing nodded. "Happy birthday, Hua'er. I might not be able to come and visit you tomorrow, so let me give you my congratulation in advance."

Nan Hua nodded. Her eyes lowered as she touched the necklace. It was a simple necklace with a small carving in the shape of diamond in the middle. The carve didn't seem to be that professionally done as it was still slightly rough at the side.

As for Long Qian Xing not being able to come… Nan Hua didn't find it surprising. After all, tomorrow, the Emperor would fall sick.

How could he have time to go around when the Emperor's life was in turmoil?

"Your Highness, Young Master Long, we shall take our leave." Nan Luo's face was extraordinarily dark but he forced a smile out. If only Prince Yang Zhou was not here, he really wanted to smash a fist to Long Qian Xing's face.

How dare he touch his sister like that!

Hmph!

After his birthday, he would go to the academy and challenge Long Qian Xing to a duel and defeat this annoying man!

The twins excused themselves and left the private rooms, leaving both Long Qian Xing and Prince Yang Zhou inside. The prince was tapping the table as if to attract attention to himself. Even though he currently didn't say anything, Long Qian Xing could guess that he was annoyed.

"Does Your Highness disliked meeting the twins?" Long Qian Xing asked with a smile.

"You know very well that this is a sensitive time. There's not many people who want to stay by my side. Do you plan on pulling General Nan to my side?" Prince Yang Zhou asked slowly.

"That's one. What do you think of the twins, Your Highness?"

Prince Yang Zhou arched his eyebrows. "To be able to hide their presences like that, I doubt they're just ordinary children."

Long Qian Xing smiled at that answer.

When the twins first came, Prince Yang Zhou didn't seem to notice that they were outsiders. As the first prince, Prince Yang Zhou naturally learned martial arts and would know that there were people with Long Qian Xing.

But he didn't suspect them.

Because the presence he felt was vague, which was the mark of someone with good martial arts. What he didn't expect was that there were two children much younger than them instead of the servants.

"What are you planning, Qian Xing?"

"Backup plans. If you don't mind, I plan to include that boy since it might be dangerous." Long Qian Xing's eyes narrowed slightly. Several parties have started to make their moves. Fei Yang Kingdom wouldn't be peaceful anymore.

Prince Yang Zhou stood up. "I'll leave it to you."

"I understand, Your Highness."
