Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 388 Hai Fa Nie

Lowering her eyes, Nan Hua acted as if she didn't notice anything and only headed to the quarter where they could stay. Since she was an unmarried young lady, she got a quarter for herself, right beside Nan Luo's quarter.

Nan Luo looked at Nan Hua worriedly. "Hua'er, if you need anything, you can tell me. I'm staying not far from you."

"I know, Luo."

Feng Ao Kuai shook his head silently. It seemed that no matter how many warning he threw to Nan Luo, this brat would never be able to act as if he didn't notice Nan Hua. No matter wherever he went, he would surely notice Nan Hua first before anything else.

It was clear that he wouldn't be able to act as if he didn't care for her.

'This is the same as displaying your weakness, Luo.'

Internally, Feng Ao Kuai vowed to lecture Nan Luo again when they go back later. He definitely couldn't let Nan Luo showed how much he actually cared for Nan Hua because it would be bad if his enemies were to caught wind of that.

"First Young Master Feng, please over here."

"Hmm."

The three of them washed up quickly.

When they came out of their quarters, which were located near each other, they could see a young lady stood not far from them. Wearing white and plain dress, she looked rather weak. However, her countenance still showed her beauty.

As if noticing that the children had finished, she raised her head and curtsied. "My name is Hai Fa Nie and I'll be the one to bring you to Empress Dowager Hai."

"Many thanks for your assistance, Miss Hai."

"It's my duty."

Hai Fa Nie smiled then straightened her body before walking towards one direction. Even though the white dress downplayed her beauty, the way she walked was still elegant and seemed to be accentuated her attractiveness. It was a move that was deeply embedded in one's body and couldn't be erased easily.

Right now, Hai Fa Nie was already 16 years old, which meant that she was already at the marriageable age. After the funeral, it was likely that Hai Fa Nie would be married away to someone.

"Empress Dowager Hai's coffin is over here. Please don't get too close."

"Thank you, Miss Hai."

Hai Fa Nie smiled and curtsied naturally. Her movement was slightly exaggerated compared to the normal method. If it was the palace, she would have long been beaten up and punished heavily because she couldn't do her conduct well. But here, it didn't seem to be that way.

Feng Ao Kuai's eyes turned a bit cold but he said nothing more to Hai Fa Nie. Instead, he focused his attention on the coffin before him. With his height, it was a bit hard for him to see the corpse inside, but he still could see faintly.

On the other hand, Nan Luo had seen Empress Dowager Hai before, so he knew for sure that the person inside was the same person. It was just… she looked much older compared to before with many of her hair had turned white.

"If you wish to go back but didn't know the way, you may ask the servants."

"I understand. Thank you for giving us some of your time, Miss Hai." Feng Ao Kuai was still as polite as ever. His expression barely changed even though his eyes were cold without any mirth whatsoever.

They paid their respect before going once more.

Since they were not close to Hai Family, they didn't actually have any reason to stay here any longer.

"How long will we stay here?" Nan Luo asked curiously.

"After His Highness the Second Prince arrived, we might need to stay for another day as a show of respect." Feng Ao Kuai thought for a moment. "In two days, we should be able to go back."

"I see."

Feng Ao Kuai pursed his lips when he saw the disappointed look on Nan Luo. He knew that Nan Luo wanted something to happen so that they would not be bored when they were here. However, he knew very well that the people must have started to move somewhere out of their vision.

Two days were more than enough to embroil themselves in whatever matter they intended to participate in from the very first moment they were sent to this city.

"Oh right, Miss Hai's quarter is not far from Hua'er, right?" Nan Luo asked. He noticed that Hai Fa Nie seemed to be coming from the quarter on the other side of Nan Hua's quarter. Since this was not their residence, they couldn't possibly ask for Nan Hua's quarter to be located in the middle between him and Feng Ao Kuai.

"It seems so."

"What do you think of her, Hua'er?"

What does she think?

Nan Hua blinked her eyes and lowered her gaze. "Miss Hai is a beautiful person."

Nan Luo was speechless. He was sure that it was not what he wanted to ask. On the other hand, Feng Ao Kuai let out a chuckle. "Indeed, she is."

'You too?'

Before Nan Luo could ask, he noticed the cold glint on Feng Ao Kuai's eyes. He understood that they were talking literally. However, he didn't understand what the code word for beautiful meant.

It seemed that he needed to think more about what they actually meant.

"It's better for us to stay with Third Master Feng."

"…Really?"

Even though Nan Luo highly doubted that it would be better for him to stay near Feng Qian Kun, he still followed what Feng Ao Kuai said.

The group of three searched for Feng Qian Kun and found him at the main hall with several family members of Hai Family standing there. From the way it looked like, they were all discussing some important matter.

Nan Luo's face darkened.

Should they really barge in just like this?

"Let's go back." Feng Ao Kuai tilted his head. "Let's not disturb the adults when they're busy."

"Alright."

Nan Hua passed a look at Concubine Hai, who was passing by at the other side. Her clear dark eyes deepened slightly.
