[1] Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Ch 111 - 115

C111 - Long Xu Nian’s Marriage (2)

"Oh right, Long Xu Nian's marriage is hastened. Do you want to take a look tomorrow? Grandpa did say that he'll give us a day of holiday, right?" Nan Luo asked with a grin on his face.

Nan Hua turned to look at Nan Luo. "Hastened?"

"Yes. The Long Family asked for the Wen Family to hasten the marriage. The Young Master of Wen Family agreed, so the marriage will be held tomorrow. Did you not follow the news?" Nan Luo asked curiously.

Nan Hua merely sent a glance at Nan Luo.

But as someone who knew Nan Hua very well, Nan Luo knew that the glance meant: "Why should I care for someone unimportant?"

"In that case, we'll just go there~. I heard that she has been using expensive medicines one after another. I wonder how long it would take before her face return to normal."

Because of the white fox, Long Xu Nian's face was disfigured. It was unknown whether her face had healed after such a long period of time. After all, medicines that could cure deep wounds without leaving any mark didn't exist yet.

Not to mention, the face was a delicate location.

"Has Grandpa give the permit?" Nan Hua asked.

Nan Luo nodded. "Yeah, he surprisingly didn't mind us playing outside. Probably he knows that we'll be bored if we're locked in the residence all the time."

Nan Hua: "…"

Are you sure that the one who was bored not you, Nan Luo?

Hou Liang shook his head when he saw the two children already made their plan for tomorrow. "Young Miss, if you want to go out tomorrow, it'll be better for you to take servants and guards to protect you."

Protect her?

Nan Luo scoffed. "I can protect her!"

"For safety reason, it's better to have more people to protect Young Miss and Young Master." Hou Liang didn't know whether to cry or laugh when he saw Nan Luo's defiance stance. It was clear that the young master wished that he would be the only one who protected Nan Hua.

Hearing that, Nan Luo snorted but didn't refute. He knew that he was still not strong enough. He had to train more!

"Rest!"

Thwack!

"Hua'er…." Nan Luo said in aggrieved tone. Even his little sister was bullying him.

Nan Hua's expression didn't change in the slightest bit. She pointed to the direction of his quarter. "It's late."

"Fine, fine, I'll go and rest. You should rest too, Hua'er."

"Mhm."

Nan Luo watched as Nan Hua returned to her quarter before he sat down, a helpless expression on his face. He murmured lightly, "Would seeing Long Xu Nian having to hasten her marriage put you in better mood? Due to the recent scandals, Long Xu Nian's reputation hadn't been good."

Xiao Yan passed a glance at his young master but he said nothing. He knew that the reason Old Master Nan agreed was because he wanted Nan Hua to feel better. Would seeing someone who used to bully her in worse situation made her feel better?

Normal people would.

But it was uncertain whether the same logic would apply to Nan Hua, especially considering that Nan Hua was always so expressionless.

…

The next day, Mu Yan and Xiao Yun were busy to prepare for Nan Hua's outing. Mu Yan was a silent girl and always acting very careful. However, her work had always been very good so far, so no one was criticizing her.
