FORGOTTEN LEGEND OF THE BLOODIED FLOWER

Chapter 501 Tit for Tat



Chapter 501 Tit for Tat

Empress Dowager Mei only returned much later to say that the banquet was over. The noble ladies went back after exchanging a few more pleasantries. Princess Hu also went back to her residence with the servant helping her.

"First Young Miss Nan, please pay a visit to Mu Family Residence in the future." Mu Fei Jiu looked at Nan Hua and her eyes twinkled in happiness. "Mu Family will surely open their arms to welcome you."

Nan Hua nodded. "I'll pay a visit to Mu Family in the future."

"That's great!" Mu Fei Jiu was overjoyed.

Those who didn't know would think that the two of them were already friends for decades based on how close they were. The truth was, the two of them had only interacted with each other for the first time not long ago.

As Nan Hua returned to the carriage, she wondered what she should say to Nan Shu Cheng. If she wanted to visit either Old Madam Long or Mu Fei Jiu formally, she would need his permission.

What a hassle.

Nan Xin had already entered the carriage faster. When she saw Nan Hua getting close so easily with Mu Fei Jiu and had the support of Old Madam Long, she felt increasingly jealous.

Why was it not her?

Why did it have to be Nan Hua?

Just in what side did Nan Hua was better than her?

Looking at the beautiful Nan Hua, Nan Xin couldn't help but spoke out, "What a stunning flower it is to be able to attract so many people's attention."

Nan Hua glanced over, her gaze was clear. "At least, a stunning flower will attract a lot of butterflies rather than an ugly flower that only attracted fleas."

At those words, Nan Xin's face flushed. How could she not understand that Nan Hua was talking about her when countering her words? She turned her head to the side, refusing to talk with Nan Hua ever again.

There goes her act of playing the good sister.

Nan Hua had been wondering how long Nan Xin would be able to keep this act of hers. As it turned out, it didn't even last a month before it was completely broken. At this point, Nan Hua had to be thoroughly stupid to believe that Nan Xin was truly wishing for her wellbeing and acted as her sister.

Not wanting to think too much, Nan Hua looked outside. Even though she was focused on those two Imperial Family members, she still remembered that Madam Qu seemed to be having fun with her half sister. There might be some drama in the days to come.

How tiring.

Soon, the carriage reached Nan Family Residence and they all alighted down. Nan Shu Cheng came over with the steward following him. His eyes narrowed when he saw the group in front of him.

"How was the party, Nan Hua, Nan Xin?" Nan Shu Cheng asked these two first.

"It's very fun, Father." Nan Xin smiled sweetly, no longer showing any indication of her perturbed expression. She looked as if she was genuinely enjoying the banquet from the bottom of her heart. "I spend my time with Sister Lei. Can I come to Lei Family Residence in the future, Father?"

"That will depend on the condition." Nan Shu Cheng didn't want to let his children meet with other people so easily. He knew that if anything happened to them, there would be too late for him to regret.

He looked over at Nan Hua.

"Old Madam Long come over and invite me to visit her soon." Nan Hua was calm. "Fourth Young Miss Mu also ask me to pay a visit to Mu Family Residence in the future."

Nan Shu Cheng's lips jerked when he heard that. Both families were on the side of Emperor Yang Zhou while he himself tried to stay neutral and not got involved in those because of his plan.

He waved his hand. "I'll only give you permission when there's a good time in the future."

"I understand."

After saying some other pleasantries, Nan Shu Cheng sent the two children back to their quarter. He turned his head to look at Madam Qu as if wanting to ask what had actually happened at that time.

Madam Qu pursed her lips. "Shu Cheng, can you come over to my residence? I want to talk about some things."

"Fine." Nan Shu Cheng took a deep breath internally and nodded.

Thus, the couple headed to Madam Qu's quarter.

Meanwhile, Nan Hua reached her room and immediately noticed the additional book on her table. Her eyes flickered as she waved her hand to ask her servants to not serve her.

"I'll do it myself."

"Yes, Miss." Xiao Yun waved her hand, beckoning for the others to not enter Nan Hua's room. She was the leader of these ladies and naturally the one who actually did Nan Hua's work when it came to manage these people in her quarter.

Nan Hua sat down and removed her accessories while her other hand opened the book and began to read. Her eyes flickered after she was done and the scroll was quickly burned into ash.

"From the very beginning, there's no future for Nan Family."

What her father had done was not completely covered. Some people were already paying attention to him and at this point of time, it was already too late.

No wonder that her people also took a long time to recover all the necessary intelligence.

Nan Shu Cheng was being very careful.

But no matter how careful he was, it would be hard to keep it a secret forever. Nan Hua had known about this matter and soon, there would be more people who found out. Should this matter come to light, there would be no chance for Nan Family anymore.

Nan Hua sat in silence for some time before returning to her usual activities.

She had no feelings for her so called father.

Thus, she chose to let the nature took its course.
