Forgotten Legend Of The Bloodied Flower

Chapter 103 - Indifference

The servants gasped when they heard the words young Nan Hua said.

They knew very well the consequences of those words wouldn't be small. The young Nan Hua's words were neither small nor very loud, but it was piercing the heart of those who were present. It seemed to be pleading, yet it was poking right at the very point that hurt the most.

On the other hand, Nan Shu Cheng was livid. He pointed his finger at Nan Hua and began to curse.

For the current Nan Hua, the image turned blurry.

...

Nan Hua's dark obsidian eyes turned even colder. Before she could even retort, the image in front of her changed for a moment. It was as if she was seeing a dream or a film that only lasted for a moment yet it gave her enough information.

The memory had ended and Nan Hua came back to her senses. Not much time had passed and only split second, yet the scene in front of her lasted for some time inside her mind. It was as if she was back at that time, turning into the young Nan Hua who was filled with rage and disappointment towards her father.

But, the current Nan Hua was no longer a mere little kid who could be pushed around.

"Luo, what did Mother leave back in the residence?" Nan Hua asked without paying any attention to the two people in front of her. Her head was throbbing because of pain from that sudden memory and yet her face showed none of them.

She would never show her weakness in front of other people.

Nan Luo looked at Nan Hua then to the man in front of him. He smirked. "Nothing. I already bring everything along, including the dowry that he stole from her."

Nan Shu Cheng was stunned. "No way! I keep them.... You stole them?"

"I didn't. I only take back what belonged to my mother."

"You b*stard!"

Swish!

A soldier appeared before Nan Shu Cheng with the sword drawn towards his neck. It was so close that even the slightest movement would take his life. Seeing it, Nan Shu Cheng stopped moving.

He was afraid.

Nan Hua looked at her twin brother and realized that he must have asked their grandfather to retrieve everything that belonged to their mother when they came to this residence. Her twin brother was quite meticulous.

"Nan Luo, you..."

Nan Hua slowly recited, "A pool of black water shows its true face under the light. But a blind man only knows it's cool and comfortable. Even a beast knows how to protect their cubs, what should a man who attempt to kill their children be called as?"

Nan Shu Cheng's face paled considerably. He could remember this poem very well. It was the only one that Nan Hua said to him when he allowed Concubine Qu to bully his wife openly. At that time, Nan Hua also showed her rebellions and recited this in front of all the servants.

This caused a huge scandal in the residence, mainly because Nan Hua's voice was too loud at that time.

The spy from other residences heard and began to spread nonsense.

As the memory entered his mind, Nan Shu Cheng's eyes turned cold. He turned around. "Very good. Do your really think that you can do it again now that you're here? I would like to see how you're going to survive without our protection."

Nan Hua looked at Nan Shu Cheng's departing back and replied succinctly, "When have you ever care for me and give me protection?"

Nan Shu Cheng staggered but he kept his posture. He really wanted to pull his daughter and son back but the soldiers there were blocking his way. And it was not like either one of them ever go out.
