C181 - Be A Child
Nan Hua knew that there was nothing that they could do to help. They were just children, no connections, no influence, and could only work hard for their future. It was only in the future when they managed to do something would they be able to help.
But… time might not allow them to do so.
The two of them stayed still in front of the quarter. No one talked and they were both thinking how they should solve this problem.
"Hua'er."
Nan Hua raised her head and saw Long Qian Xing walked in their direction. He smiled helplessly in her direction. "Are you worried about your grandfather?"
Worry?
Thinking for a bit, Nan Hua then nodded. This feeling that she was experiencing should be worry.
Long Qian Xing stopped before her hand rubbed her head. "Let the adults do their work and wait like a good child. Grandmother is a good doctor and she'll surely be able to alleviate Old Master Nan's illness."
Nan Hua blinked her eyes. She was looking at Long Qian Xing's dark eyes that were staring back in her direction. It looked like a child that was speaking but the maturity showed in his eyes was that of an adult.
The soul in Long Qian Xing's body was already over twenty years old.
"Mhm," Nan Hua replied softly.
"Young Master Long, Young Miss Nan, Second Young Master Feng, Old Master Nan is calling you inside," a servant came out and greeted them one by one.
"Let's go inside."
Nan Hua nodded and followed Long Qian Xing obediently. Her black obsidian eyes were scanning the room as she noticed that Old Master Nan was resting calmly. His breathing had turned back to normal and his face no longer pale.
Long Qian Xing was not lying to her.
Feng Ao Kuai also heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his grandfather's condition. No matter what, he would never want to see his grandfather hurting and suffering. If only it was possible, he didn't want his grandfather to return to the battlefield anymore.
"Brats, what's with your expression? I'm still healthy!" Old Master Nan chided.
"Yes, Grandfather, you're healthy."
"Yes, Grandfather."
Hearing the two of them answered in equally indifferent tone, Old Master Nan felt a bit helpless. He turned to look at Old Madam Long. "You owe me one less."
"Damn you, do you even still remember how much I owe you back then?" Old Madam Long couldn't help it and chided back.
Old Master Nan snorted. "What, do you already forget how I save your life?"
"I don't forget."
Nan Hua blinked her eyes and saw Long Qian Xing was looking in her direction. She arched her eyebrows as if asking what does he want.
"Grandmother used to go to the battlefield as a doctor. She and Old Master Nan…"
Swing! Prang!
A porcelain was thrown in his direction but Long Qian Xing evaded effortlessly. He looked at his grandmother with arched eyebrows. "Grandmother, do you wish to kill your beloved grandson?"
Beloved grandson?
Old Madam Long really wished to whip this annoying brat. If only they were back at home, she could punish him more. "Hmph, don't go around and leak out the story of my past. Go back home if you don't have any other business here."
