Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 301 – You Don’t Mind?

For the rest of the day, Nan Hua kept on walking around the city. It looked like their group was walking aimlessly, but Nan Hua silently guided them to make sure that they covered most of the cities area.

She had already visited the outskirt because of her daily lessons. All that she needed was the rest of the city area because she rarely headed over to this area. The visit from the Lantern Festival was good enough for her.

"Children shouldn't stay outside for too long." Nan Si Qiao looked at the sky and noticed that it was darkening. She didn't want the children to get sick because they were exposed to the cold temperature all the time.

Feng Ao Si stretched his hand. "I can't understand why you like Lantern Festival so much, Mother."

"Lantern Festival is a good event." Nan Si Qiao glared at her son. She was reminded of her husband as the corner of her lips curled up to form a faint smile. "A lot of good memories can be made during the festival."

Four pair of eyes were looking at her as if waiting for her to continue. However, Nan Si Qiao's cheek blushed when she realized what she was talking about in front of the children. They were too young to listen about this matter, ah.

*cough*

"Young Commander Long, I would like to trouble you to watch over Hua'er first."

"Aunt, I can do it!" Nan Luo protested.

Nan Si Qiao looked at the young boy and scoffed. "Help me to buy some light dishes. We'll be late to buy dinner by the time we went home. Ao Si, you come with me too. Ao Kuai, you stay here with Young Commander Long and Hua'er."

"Yes, Mother."

Feng Ao Kuai glanced at Long Qian Xing from the corner of his eyes. If this man dared to do anything funny to Nan Hua, he would make sure that he regretted the fact that he had ever been born.

Fortunately, Long Qian Xing was not that desperate to go after an underage girl.

"Second Young Master Feng don't have to glare at me. I wouldn't do anything improper," Long Qian Xing said with a smile.

Feng Ao Kuai snorted but didn't say anything. He would be a fool to believe his words as he didn't really want to let Nan Hua out of his vision's rage.

Nan Hua didn't comment on them. Instead, she was looking at Long Qian Xing curiously. From his standing's position, which was slightly behind her yet still beside her, she could guess that it was the protective position.

At this angle, he would be able to help her if there was anything that happened.

If she was not familiar with martial arts, she would have not notice this and only thought he was accompanying her. It was precisely because she knew that she was silently wondering why Long Qian Xing was acting so protective of her.

Shouldn't he be despising her?

The novel mentioned how Long Qian Xing didn't like his fiancée because she was annoying to him. In his opinion, his fiancée was too brazen even though he was someone who came from the modern world where it was even more common for couples to show off to each other.

He would treat her well when they were in public but avoided her in private.

There were not many moments of him being together with Nan Hua, but each time there was one, it would only be explained very briefly. The time when he was in Wind City, he should have stayed alone to wait for the princess to come and then escorted her to Zhang Xu Kingdom.

There was no 'Nan Hua' in this part at all.

Nan Hua's eyes flickered.

Was her change in attitude caused Long Qian Xing's attitude to change as well? She was pretty sure that she was imitating the original Nan Hua pretty well. However, there was indeed the flaw in her as she didn't know exactly how the original Nan Hua was.

"Brother Long."

"Yes, Hua'er?"

"You don't mind this arrangement?" Nan Hua asked.

Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. From one glance, it sounded as if she was asking whether he was mind taking care of her and her cousin. But Long Qian Xing had the feeling that she was not simply asking about that.

What she was asking was…

The corner of his lips curled up slightly. "Why should I?"

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and then turned her head to look at the other side. Right, he hadn't met with the female lead yet. In this period of time, he still accepted the arrangement that his father had made for him without much complaint.

It was only later on when he fell for the female lead did he actively try to break the engagement. With his achievement, it was not hard for him to get close to the female lead and bind her together to him.

"Oh."

The voice of agreement from Nan Hua was low and faint.

Long Qian Xing looked at his little fiancée, wondering what she was actually thinking. He originally thought that he would not be able to even interact with her until the marriage. Since the custom was so strict, he didn't think too much about this matter at all.

It was only after repeatedly bumping onto her did Long Qian Xing realized that there were actually a lot of loopholes.

Of course, the perquisite was that she would have to have the ability to get out of her residence legally. Lantern Festival was only once a year, but it was indeed the best method for men to meet with other women.

The rules were somewhat laxer during this time.

Aside from that, Long Qian Xing knew that he could only see her at the parties. When they were children, there was not much differentiation between boys and girls because they were allowed to play at the women area.

But since he was growing older and turn into small adult, it turned impossible.
