Chapter 618 Victory Celebration (1)
Nan Luo jogged outside and saw Feng Ao Si and Feng Ao Kuai were already standing there. He grinned. “This time, we’ll be able to see the reward ceremony.”
”Even if you can see it, it’s very unlikely for you to be given any reward.” Feng Ao Si poured a bucket of cold water on Nan Luo’s head mercilessly.
”Do you really have to say that, Brother Si?”
”I’m only saying the truth!”
”No one wanted to hear it!”
”But I want to say it!”
”I don’t need to hear it!”
”What’s wrong with me saying that?”
As the two of them squabbled as they headed to the front gate, Feng Ao Kuai was scrutinizing Nan Hua. He wanted to talk more but felt that it wouldn’t be appropriate considering their current position and her current identity.
Thus, he only nodded lightly before turning his attention back to the squabbling duo.
”If you still want to fight, do it after the ceremony.” Feng Ao Kuai looked at the Nan Luo and Feng Ao Si coldly when they reached the carriage.
With that threat, the two of them shut their mouth for real. While Feng Ao Kuai might usually look like a silent kid, the two of them knew that all of his threat were real. They might really be beaten senseless if they still dared to fight here.
And of course, that so called beating was not only physical beating…
”We’re riding one carriage this time.”
”Why one?” Nan Luo was confused. “Isn’t it better for us to ride a carriage for one person?”
”There are too many guests at the Palace.”
With that, Nan Luo knew that the number of carriage would be overwhelming. It would ease their servants’ work to find a place to park one carriage compared to park three carriages.
The other guests would also consider this matter and tried to reduce the number of carriages consciously.
Anyway, it was not that important to use so many carriages.
”Nan, come inside.”
”Yes.”
The four of them got into the carriage. Thankfully, they were using the big carriage so it fit them all perfectly.
Feng Ao Si looked outside with curiosity. “It’s been a while since the last time I see the Capital City’s street. It still looks as lively as ever.”
”They’re also celebrating Fei Yang Kingdom’s Victory. If it’s not lively, it’ll be rather strange.” Nan Luo chuckled. He looked outside and still feel the street to be familiar. Yet, he was not missing the Capital City that much.
Aside from missing his twin sister, he didn’t have that many good memories about the Capital City and naturally would not care that much about this place.
”Are you going to stay here for a while?”
”Why should I?” Nan Luo showed a strange expression. “Grandpa told us to only stay in the Capital City to attend the reward ceremony and the celebration, right?”
”Don’t you want to visit Hua’er?” Feng Ao Kuai looked at Nan Luo.
It was then Nan Luo recalled that he did want to visit his twin sister. He glanced at Nan Hua. Even though Nan Hua was here, he couldn’t really interact with her as close as when she was not wearing that mask. No matter what, their current relationship was that of master and servant.
Only the two people inside the carriages knew the truth.
(Feng Ao Si was not told and neither of them felt that it was necessary for him to know)
”In that case, I’ll pay a visit to Nan Family Residence after this had settled.” Nan Luo grinned. “Do you want to accompany me, Brother Kuai?”
”I do.”
”How about you, Brother Si?”
”There’s no need.” Feng Ao Si’s expression was a bit awkward. Whenever they were talking about Nan Hua, he could only remember the humiliation and also the fact that he had been beaten up by Nan Hua continuously.
This often made him wonder whether Nan Hua was truly a noble lady or not.
Her skill was not any worse compared to many veteran soldiers who had spent most of their life at the frontline. And Feng Ao Si didn’t have any interest to be beaten up so horribly again. His joy of being promoted would be affected heavily if he were to be beaten up again.
”Why not?” Nan Luo was confused.
Feng Ao Si was speechless. He noticed that Feng Ao Kuai had similar expression with Nan Luo and decided to elaborate, “Why should I visit her? I better not make things more difficult for myself…”
”The Nan Family over there didn’t know her real skill.” Nan Luo was the one being speechless when he saw his older cousin’s expression. Did he hit his head or something that he forgot Nan Hua’s martial arts skill was kept hidden from others?
Feng Ao Si was stunned then had a look of realization on his face.
”You’re right! I forget about that.”
Nan Luo: “…”
Feng Ao Kuai: “…”
Thankfully, their servants outside didn’t listen to their conversation. If they also heard it, their assessment of Feng Ao Si would have gotten even lower. Though, Feng Ao Kuai doubted that it could get any lower since it was definitely already at the very bottom.
The so called bottom limit of stupid people has always been his own older brother for Feng Ao Kuai.
Even Nan Luo sometimes think that way.
”We’re almost at the palace.” Nan Luo looked outside.
”Hou Liang will be the one accompanying us this time.” Feng Ao Kuai patted his clothes to remove the nonexistent dust.
”He’s also a commander and his position should be different from us, right?” Nan Luo scratched the back of his head.
”Eh, really?” Feng Ao Si was stunned.
Nan Luo: “…”
Feng Ao Kuai: “…Did he stand beside you during the last time reward ceremony?”
Feng Ao Si thought for a moment before shaking his head. “I don’t think so… I don’t remember.”
The others were completely speechless.
