Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 634 Nan Shu Cheng’s Residence

Nan Shu Cheng’s Residence

Nan Hua slipped back home first. All this time, Ku was pretending to be her and sat quietly on the chair inside the room. She didn't actually do anything but there was a bamboo strips placed in front of her, which made it looked like she was reading.

When Nan Hua appeared, Ku immediately stood up.

"You may go."

"Yes, Miss."

Nan Hua changed into her attire and Mu Yan helped to arrange her hair. Even though Nan Hua could do it by herself, it was much faster to ask Mu Yan to do it since she was a professional at doing this.

Looking at her appearance in the bronze mirror in front of her, Nan Hua's eyes flickered slightly.

"Miss has grown even more beautiful." Xiao Yun giggled. "No one will be able to compare to your beauty, Miss."

Mu Yan also nodded. "Yes, Miss is amazing."

Nan Hua looked at the two of them and shook her head. "If you keep on saying things like that, wouldn't it go into my head?"

Xiao Yun and Mu Yan both laughed. They were only joking, but they were glad when they heard Nan Hua answered. Usually, she would stay silent and didn't seem to be so willing to joke around.

"Luo will come soon." Nan Hua changed the conversation. "Make sure to clean up the yard first."

Xiao Yun curtsied. "Yes, Miss."

The other two maidservants, Chu Yue and Ran were also busy as they had finally gotten their order. Clean up the yard didn't only mean to clean up the servants. But it was also an order to clean up anyone who might interfere in their business.

Nan Hua wanted to have a private conversation with her twin brother.

…

The carriage stopped and Nan Luo alighted. Looking at the gate in front of him with the beautifully carved word 'Nan,' he felt a bit repulsed. In the past, he really liked going back home because he could tell his mother and sister about what had happened.

But ever since that day, he hated this place very much. Everything that existed in this place only served to disgust him.

Many years had passed, but he still didn't like the sight of this door.

It just reminded him of the painful things he had missed while he only looked at the beautiful things presented before him.

"Luo."

"I'm fine." Nan Luo smiled. "Let's go."

"Ok." Feng Ao Kuai knew that the twins didn't really want to return to this place. But they had to put a closure to things that happened in the past. Right now, they were no longer the same children who could only be bullied without any ability to fight back in the slightest bit.

"First Young Master Nan, First Young Master Feng, and Second Young Master Feng had arrived."

Nan Shu Cheng furrowed his eyebrows when he heard that. He knew that the three of them arrived in the Capital City just yesterday, but he didn't expect to see the three of them came knocking on his door just after the victory celebration.

He had already finished work and returned earlier because he was tired.

"Bring them in."

"Yes, Master."

Nan Shu Cheng walked to the courtyard along with Madam Qu who followed not far behind him. She was dressed in light color this time as if she wanted to tell others that she was not as old as she looked like.

Nan Luo saw the two of them and cupped his fist in greetings. "Father, Madam Qu, Nan Luo come to pay a visit."

Hearing the way Nan Luo greets Madam Qu, Nan Shu Cheng was displeased. Qu Fei Jiao is his rightful wife now and Nan Luo should be calling her as his mother. It was not supposed to be like this at all.

"Is this how you greet your mother?"

"She's not my mother, Father." Nan Luo looked at Nan Shu Cheng without any hint of fear within. Not only fear, there was not even any emotion left within his eyes. It was as if he was not looking at his father but rather looking at a stranger who didn't have any relationship with him.

The cold gaze only reminded Nan Shu Cheng to a certain person. A person whom he didn't want to remember in the slightest bit.

Madam Qu's eyes flashed. "It's alright, Shu Cheng. Ah Luo had just returned from the battlefield. It's only normal for him to be a bit tired."

Nan Shu Cheng furrowed his eyebrows but didn't press the matter.

On the other hand, Nan Luo was looking at Madam Qu in front of him. It seemed after the countless mess in the residence, Madam Qu had started to become even better at concealing her expression and all. It seemed that the rumors about how she become worse was not entirely correct.

He sneered internally.

"I'm going to see my twin sister." Nan Luo didn't even bother to look at Madam Qu as he cupped his fist towards Nan Shu Cheng. Without waiting for permission or whatsoever, he simply left in the direction of Nan Hua's quarter.

Nan Shu Cheng furrowed his eyebrows. "Are you not going to talk with your father longer?"

"I don't have anything I would like to say to you." Nan Luo stopped and turned his head around. The indifference and coldness within his eyes were clear. It was the same gaze as people who chose to disregard him.

But for a moment, a memory was evoked within Nan Shu Cheng's mind. The sight was exceedingly similar but the person who said it was different.

"I don't have anything I would like to say to you. I have said everything in the past, but you never listened to me."

A beautiful woman, dressed in peach colored dress, turned her head and looked at him. Her skin was pale and her complexion didn't look good. And the gaze in her eyes were no longer filled with love and concern. Instead, it was now filled with indifference and complete disregard.
