Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 711: Daughters

Looking at the cold gate in front of her, Nan Hua knew that Nan Shu Cheng would definitely started to question her the moment she walked inside. After all, Nan Xin ended in such a state while nothing happened to her at all.     

Would Nan Shu Cheng be biased towards Nan Xin?     

It was unlikely, but Nan Shu Cheng could still use that girl to be used against Nan Hua. That would be if he wanted to go against Nan Hua.     

"Young Miss?" Xiao Yun asked in a soft voice when she saw Nan Hua unmoving.     

Nan Hua said nothing and walked into the residence. Since she would still stay here for a few more days until that matter was settled, she would just wait. Whatever Nan Shu Cheng wanted, she would just entertain that man.     

Time is ticking.     

And there was not much time left for Nan Shu Cheng.     

For a man like him who only cared about his reputation while having his hand dirty at the back, Nan Hua didn't think that he would be able to stay like this forever. His power was simply not enough for him to truly be invincible in this kingdom.     

As Nan Hua walked into Nan Shu Cheng's Residence, she could sense the looming and tense atmosphere. The servants were all being very careful as if they were worried that the slightest bit of mistake would put them in their end.     

Servants had extremely low position. Their deaths would not affect the people who were living in this residences, so they had to be careful. If they ended up in bad situation just because their Master was in a bad mood, who could they cry to?     

Thus, it was very tense.     

When they saw Nan Hua, they also automatically moved away as if they were afraid of being implicated. It seemed that the source of this current situation was indeed the event that had happened before.     

"Master, First Young Miss had returned."     

Bang!     

"You still have the cheek to return?" Nan Shu Cheng was pissed off when he saw Nan Hua walked into the courtyard. Hearing what happened in the palace had infuriated him so much.     

He cared for his face.     

And Nan Xin had made him so thoroughly humiliated!     

Being schemed at and then humiliated so horribly, Nan Xin cried buckets when she returned. She complained to Nan Shu Cheng, saying that it was the fault of Nan Hua for not helping her.     

She's banned from the palace!     

Nan Shu Cheng felt as if he was struck by the lightning when he heard that sentence.     

He knew what it meant even clearer.     

As an official who had been working hard to build his reputation and power all these years, he knew what an honor it was for them to have their daughter entered the palace. Even if they ended up being married away to other officials, it was still an honor to stay there for a period of time.     

And being able to enter the palace meant that there was a chance for them to become the Imperial Concubine.     

The Imperial Concubine!     

His position would be more stable if he had a backing in the palace called Imperial Concubine. There was no one who would be able to make things difficult for him like how it has been all these years.         

The humiliation that he had suffered flashed within his mind when he saw Nan Xin and her mother cried in front of him.     

He's angry.     

And Nan Xin shouted at how it was Nan Hua's fault for not helping her that she ended up in this dire situation. Even her mother supported her, trying to shift the blame to others as much as possible.     

Nan Shu Cheng was annoyed.     

He punished Nan Xin but also called doctors to cure her. After all, Nan Xin is still his daughter that he could use to marry someone when she was of age later.     

Even if she has been banished from the palace, it didn't mean that she couldn't be married away in the future. It was just that…     

It would be hard.     

Her future marriage prospect will be very limited because this stain would make her look as if she was a dishonorable woman. To be banished from the palace and having a lot of people knew about it…     

How could it be good?     

Nan Shu Cheng felt his head hurt so much.     

So much that when he saw Nan Hua, all he wanted was to lash out and be angry.     

There were too many things he lost just because of Nan Xin's action!     

These stupid girls!     

Why did he had to have daughters? His sons were all much better than these two and made him happier! These daughters' existences seemed to just hinder his future path!     

Nan Hua raised her head, her clear black obsidian eyes were calm as they stared straight at her father's eyes. There was not even the slightest bit of emotion within her eyes as all that left was only indifference.     

"Should I not return?"     

Nan Shu Cheng pointed at Nan Hua and cursed out. The servants were all terrified when they heard his rough language. It has been a long time since Nan Shu Cheng was so angry that he cursed.     

On the other hand, Nan Hua didn't seem to care in the slightest bit.     

"What did I do wrong to have such unfilial child? Do you know how much Nan Xin cried because you didn't even help her?"     

"Is that what she said?" Nan Hua was looking straight at Nan Shu Cheng without any expectation within her expression. "Nan Xin tried to bring harmful substance to the Empress Selection and suffered because of that. All the ladies who participated in the Empress Selection can testify to this. She had tried to pull he along with her, do you really wish for me to help her in that situation?"
