Novel Full Chapter 653 Punishment
Chapter 653 Punishment
”Do I have to settle them?”
”They’re not aiming for the throne.” Long Qian Xing had noticed that those people didn’t seem make any move against Fei Yang Kingdom in overall. They were simply borrowing the land in order to develop. “There are other organizations you might want to put in your eye more than this one.”
”Heh.”
Emperor Yang Zhou snorted and then waved his hand. “Go and do your preparation. I still have a lot to do.”
”Alright.” Long Qian Xing had no intention of bothering Emperor Yang Zhou for a long period of time either. He still had to finish his preparation too. As he walked out of the side hall, Long Qian Xing swept his gaze across the yard.
’The assassins will come tonight. Recruiting another assassin to protect against assassins… sound quite ludicrous.’
Even though it sounded strange, it was the plan that Long Qian Xing had. Of course, if Dark Moon Organization ended up rejecting his mission, he wouldn’t pester them either. Their relationship with each other was merely for their own benefit.
He would only try this method since it would lessen the burden on his back to guard Emperor Yang Zhou.
He did know that there were people who will come for Emperor Yang Zhou’s life, but what methods they would use was something that he was unclear about. The information was incomplete, so Long Qian Xing could only prepare the best he could to make sure that he would be able to win.

<Nan Shu Cheng's Residence>
Nan Hua entered the residence and noticed that Nan Shu Cheng had returned early. It seemed that he was not so busy in the palace to the point that he managed to go back so quickly.
"Nan Him; Nan Shu Cheng called in a stern tone.
"Father; Nan Hut replied unhurriedly. Despite the word, the tone she used was cold and indifferent. It didn't seem to be any different than when she was calling a stranger. However, no one would be able to criticize her manner as she stood and greeted in the proper etiquette that was required for women.
Nan Shu Cheng furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at his daughter. "Didn't I tell you that you're not allowed to leave the residence?"
In fact, Nan Shu Cheng didn't' want Nan Hua to leave at all. He wished that she would just stay quiet at home without creating anymore unnecessary trouble for him. But he heard that Nan Hua visited Old Madam Long's Residence not long ago.
This caused him to be very displeased.
"Grandmother sent a letter. It'll be impolite for me not to respond." Nan Hua was calm.
For a moment, the image of her past flashed once more. Nan Shu Cheng would restrict her from doing many things and made her study almost all day long. Whenever she failed to do so, he would punish her terribly.
The young Nan Hua was afraid and would do her best not to get punished.
But the current Nan Hua was no longer the same young kid who would cower Just because of Nan Shu Cheng's words.
Back then, she was just a little kid who wanted her father's attention and affection. She hoped that she will be able to please her father and let him see that she was a good kid. But his treatment towards her mother caused the hopes within her heart chipped away.
Now that she had grown up and no longer dependent on Nan Shu Cheng, Nan Hua would naturally not follow his words.
Besides, she barely remembered those times.
Her memory had only returned partially and it was incomplete. There were many pictures that Nan Hua herself didn't know for certain what the event that occurred was.
Nan Shu Cheng scoffed. "Are you prioritizing old Madam Long's words over your father?"
Nan Hua merely looked at her father with an indifferent gaze. It was as if she was saying that there was no need for her to listen to his words when he didn't even act as her father.
The rebellious gaze and stance that Nan H. showed caused Nan Shu Cheng to be even more enraged. His body trembled as he pointed in the direction of the ancestral room that was located not far from them.
"Go and reflect. A daughter should not disobey her parents:. Nan Shu Cheng's gaze was cold.
Nan Hua curtsied and walked in the direction of the ancestral room
Behind her, Xiao Yun was doing whatever she could to make sure that she didn't lash out. She felt that Nan Hua was wronged. Old Madam Long sent personal letter that was delivered straight to Nan Hua. Was It wrong for her to pay a visit when such an invitation letter has been sent?
But Xiao Yun couldn't say anything.
Nan Shu Cheng watched as Nan Hua walked as he snorted. He really didn't like looking at his first daughter. She was getting even more shrill. to her mother, making hits remember various memories he didn't wish to remember ever again.
The time when he was with Madam Nan was something that he didn't want to remember.
It was filled with both happiness and painful memories. Even after so many years, Nan Shu Cheng always tried his best to forget that woman. The very woman who had caused him to be shaken so many times in the past.
"Watch over her. She's not allowed to leave until tomorrow!"
"Yes, Master."
While Nan Shu Cheng was fuming, Nan Hua was calm. She walked into the ancestral room and looked at the tablets within the room. It was mostly empty since Old Master Nan had moved most of the tablets to his residence, leaving very few in this place.
Nan Hua glanced around the room as images flashed once more.
She had been in this room for so many times when she was young. Nan Shu Cheng would punish her to kneel m this roam for hours whenever she failed to do what he asked her to do. For a young kid, kneeling for such a long time caused her legs to cramp and ended up leaving wounds on her knee..
