Chapter 209 - [Bonus ]Desperation



Nan Hua was listening from the side and looked at her twin brother. In truth, Nan Luo would not have any reason to hate Nan Shu Cheng if not because of his mother and her. But the way Nan Luo hated Nan Shu Cheng so much showed that it was because he cared so much for them.

Strange feelings that Nan Hua felt unfamiliar was slowly budding up within her heart.

"Would this implicate Grandpa?" Nan Hua asked in low voice.

The others fell silent when they heard that.

Nan Luo turned to look at Feng Ao Kuai, but the latter only wore serious face that made the others worried.

"I don\'t know. There\'s that possibility…" Feng Ao Kuai knew that if Old Master Nan\'s enemies were to try involving Old Master Nan, it was not impossible. This would make it even worse for them because their grandfather was not as healthy as he was in the past.

Nan Luo furrowed his eyebrows. "Shall we head over to take a look?"

"And then thrown out because of creating trouble?"

Nan Luo: "…" he really couldn\'t refute that.

Nan Hua didn\'t say anything but she felt that she really wanted to look at Old Master Nan\'s condition right now.

Their breakfast ended with not so peaceful atmosphere. They continued with their routine training and when Old Master Nan returned in the evening, the four of them rushed over to look at his condition.

Old Master Nan was taken aback with the brats\' enthusiasm. "Brats, don\'t tell me that you all miss my training?"

They were speechless.

Nan Hua was the first to notice that Old Master Nan\'s face was pale. Even though he was still joking as usual with his grandchildren, she knew that he was actually holding back the pain and probably discomfort he felt.

He didn\'t want them to worry.

Right now, Nan Hua felt her blood boiled. She was angry. Angry to herself and angry to those people who dared to touch Old Master Nan. She couldn\'t do anything and yet she kept on dragging him down with her.

She wanted to help him.

At this moment, Nan Hua no longer cared for the so called rules that she had to strictly follow back then. She wanted to treat everyone inside this room as her real family members. Because of that, she would protect them.

No matter what.

"Grandfather, who targeted you?" Feng Ao Kuai was the first one to ask. He was the second to notice that Old Master Nan was not his usual self. Even if his grandfather tried to hide it, he would be able to find out with some investigation.

Old Master Nan was taken aback.

"No one targeted me. You should just focus on your training, Brats!" Old Master Nan chided.

Nan Hua looked at her grandfather. "Grandpa, even if you don\'t tell us, we\'ll find out."

Seeing the cold and determined gaze on Nan Hua\'s face, Old Master Nan felt his heart skipped a beat. He looked at his granddaughter and felt gratified yet also pain in his heart. He didn\'t want these brats to be the one to bear the brunt for his inability.

"Come inside."

"Yes."

They all entered the main hall and the servants dispersed. No one dared to stay close in case Old Master Nan wanted to kill them for hearing something they were not supposed to hear.

Looking at the four children in front of him, Old Master Nan sighed. "It\'s Official Du who come to target me. He has been disliking Nan Family for a long time because even though I didn\'t really pass the examination, I can still enter the court."

Nan Luo furrowed his eyebrows. "But it\'s not really a reason for him to target you, Grandpa."

"Du Family is clashing with our territory." Old Master Nan laughed. "He\'s not the only one but there\'s no need to worry so much."

Feng Ao Kuai cocked his head to the side. "Official Du, Du Fang Xian, is known to be a rather ordinary official. He had already been tasked with some problems but the way he solved it is rather mediocre. Last year, he even caused a group of people to rebel instead of pacifying them."

Hearing his grandson reciting the information as if he had memorized everything in his mind, Old Master Nan was even more speechless. He turned to look at Feng Ao Kuai who was giving him an innocent look. Though right now, no one would believe him even if he claimed to be innocent.

"I know some of the officials\' record, Grandfather."

He couldn\'t say that Nan Hua asked him to find out the political state of Fei Yang Kingdom, so he investigated, right?

Nan Hua turned to look at Feng Ao Kuai. She silently wondered why someone as amazing as Feng Ao Kuai didn\'t appear much in the novel back then. It was as if this character that was full of talent had to disappear.

Even Feng Ao Si himself didn\'t appear much in the story aside from the battlefield where he would occasionally collaborate with Long Qian Xing. But because of their difference, he didn\'t appear that much.

She turned her attention back to her grandfather. "Grandpa, please rest. I\'ll call Old Madam Long to check on you."

"Wait, don\'t call that witch!" Old Master Nan was stunned. If Old Madam Long were to come, he would surely have another bout of thrashing with the other party.

However, neither one of the four listened to him as they asked the servants to call for Old Madam Long to check on Old Master Nan.
