Forgotten Legend Of The Bloodied Flower

Chapter 120 - Going To Heng Xing City

Nan Hua looked at Feng Ao Kuai. "I'm using the gaps. As long as they're still there, there's still hope."

As long as they're still there?

Indeed, while he had essentially 'eat' the stones, they were still on the board. It naturally meant that Nan Hua would be able to figure out a method to use them. While some were taken, most of them stayed behind and it only served as a 'dead' corner.

Normally, it could only be abandoned, but Nan Hua was implying that even the dead ones could be revived as long as one knew the right method.

Feng Ao Kuai was silent for a while before he sighed. "I lost. Hua'er, shall we play another game?"

"It's late."

"Eh?"

Turning to look outside, it was clear that the sky had turned dark unknowingly. They had been playing for a long time that they missed the time for dinner.

"You're finally done?" Feng Ao Si turned his head up. He was punished by Nan Si Qiao to copy some poetry book and couldn't possibly leave it behind. "Come on, it's time to eat! I'm already hungry."

"Hua'er, let's go."

"Mhm."

The four children quickly ate and rested. They would be going to Heng Xing City tomorrow, so they better had enough rest.

The next day, Nan Hua woke up early.

"Miss, the outside world is dangerous, please be careful," Mu Yan reminded when she noticed that they were going out.

Xiao Yun nodded. "I'll protect you, Miss."

"Mhm."

Nan Hua didn't necessarily need their protection, but it would be needed if she wanted to make sure that she didn't show anything on the outside. When they were going out, she shouldn't have any chance to meet with the other noble ladies, right?

"Hua'er, let's go."

"Ok."

Nan Hua would be going in the same carriage as the other three children. Since they were all still young, there shouldn't be any problem for them to share the same carriages. Besides, Feng Ao Kuai was still indignant about the game and insisted on playing another game.

Thus, Nan Hua and Feng Ao Kuai were both playing Go when they were in the carriage.

"Ugh, I can't understand anything." Feng Ao Si was frustrated when he saw the pieces on the board. He felt that he would need to read the manual once more if he wanted to understand.

Nan Luo passed a look at Feng Ao Si. "Didn't you learn how to play the game?"

"I did, but I always lose." Feng Ao Si's mood was downcast when he talked about this matter. He knew that his intelligence has always been lower, but this made him even more dispirited. After all, he was practically the oldest in the group.

"Maybe you just need to change your opponent." Nan Luo's lips twitched. When he was playing with Nan Hua, she would always hold back and allowed him to win from time to time. However, most of the time, she would win against him with small differences.

Even now, he could see that Nan Hua was controlling the score.

Feng Ao Kuai seemed to sense it too since Nan Hua only won with small margin and even lost this game. He fell in deep thought as he looked at Nan Hua. "Why don't you crush your opponent right now?"

"Should I?" Nan Hua asked and tilted her head.

Well, no.

Feng Ao Kuai felt that he couldn't understand this little cousin of his. She clearly had excellent skill, but the way she played seemed to show that her level of skill was only around the same as her opponent. Was there any need for her to limit herself to her opponent's level?
