"That old fogey really can't let this slide." Old Madam Long rubbed her forehead and felt that it was really hard to continue debating with that annoying man.
Long Qian Xing looked at his grandmother helplessly. "Grandma, please pay more attention to your health."
"I know, I know. You don't have to repeat that so many times."
Long Qian Xing pursed his lips. If only it was possible, he wanted to bring his grandmother along so that she would be able to rest. But if he really did that, Long Family Residence will be a mess with those concubines trying their best to snatch the highest seat and control over the family.
His father's concubines were all selected by the previous emperor, Emperor Xuan. Long Qian Xing knew how much his father disliked those women who came just to take over the residence, which was why he had never returned to the Capital City for more than a decade.
The only time he came back was to bring him to the frontline.
"If you ever need help, please say it, Grandmother." Long Qian Xing looked at his grandmother worriedly. If only it was possible, he wanted to kick those women out but they would need some solid reason or it would be impolite for the previous emperor.
Not that Long Qian Xing actually cared for that man, though.
Old Madam Long scoffed. "What can a brat like you do? Just go and train, stay away from those ladies."
"Yes, Grandmother."
Long Qian Xing knew that his grandmother didn't have time to take care of him because she was too busy taking care of those women. The number had decrease over time because of his grandmother's scheme, but there were still some that was hard to deal because of some reasons.
He really hoped that his grandmother could rest, but letting those people roam around in Long Family Residence was also impossible.
"Help me write a letter to that Old Fogey to invite his granddaughter to our residence. It's better to have a formal letter lest he complained again." Old Madam Long scoffed.
"Yes, Grandma."
"Also, you should try your best to shake him off if he insists on following Hua'er. I wouldn't want him to disturb you."
Long Qian Xing's lips twitched. "He won't, Grandma."
"How do you even know that?" Old Madam Long looked at his grandson suspiciously.
Long Qian Xing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. His grandmother's trick was very low and common in his eyes. He had also noticed that Old Master Nan paid close attention to Nan Hua's feeling. And would someone at Old Master Nan's caliber fell for such childish trick?
He didn't believe it.
Old Master Nan must have chosen to follow along his grandmother's scheme on purpose in order to let him stay with Nan Hua for a brief moment.
While Long Qian Xing didn't really understand why Old Master Nan would be willing to do that, he felt that the old man must have his own consideration too. Since he had allowed them to meet, even if it was only for a brief moment, he didn't resist against him staying close to his granddaughter.
And with so many guards watching them, he wouldn't be able to do anything improper either.
Not that he wanted to.
"I'm sure." Long Qian Xing simply said that.
Even though Old Madam Long was still suspicious, she didn't bother to think about it anymore. She was thinking about the problem at home and how to deal with those snakes who might want to harm Nan Hua if she came.
She would never allow it.
Long Qian Xing tapped the edge of the chair and watched his grandmother in deep thought. Since both Old Master Nan and Old Madam Long were close friends, they were also unwilling to truly harm each other. As a result, they would only employ the lowest trick that would not harm either side.
But because it was so low, the other party had to be willing to fall for it to succeed.
'They are really childish.'
Long Qian Xing smiled and shook his head lightly.
…
The next day, Old Master Nan had to leave earlier with Feng Ao Si because of the ceremony. The others would only come for the banquet later on, so they stayed inside the residence for some time before departing.
"Hua'er, remember not to take off your veil. If you're hungry, you can eat from below it. It might be slower but you can still eat," Nan Luo warned Nan Hua for the nth time before they departed.
Nan Hua looked at her twin brother speechlessly. "Luo, I know."
"I just can't keep calm." Nan Luo sighed and looked into the distance worriedly. If someone took a fancy on his twin sister, he would be regretting it so badly that he would want to challenge that person for a duel so that he would never have a chance to even get close to Nan Hua.
"Luo, I can protect myself."
"You still can't trust anyone…."
Feng Ao Kuai actually wanted to say more things too, but he noticed Nan Hua's eyes glowed dangerously. He knew that if he barged in, there might be hell to pay. It would be better to just let Nan Luo bear all the brunt.
"Let's go."
"Okay."
When Nan Hua entered the carriage, she felt much better without Nan Luo nagging her all the time. This time, she wore light purple dress with beautiful vein's pattern at the edge. Her hair was tied into two buns with intricate braid pattern. With the veil covered her face, only her black obsidian eyes could be seen. However, her fair skin and beautifully crafted eyebrows still gave off people great impression.
Sitting before her, Xiao Yun sighed. She felt that even with this veil, Nan Hua was still very beautiful. Just a glimpse was enough to let them fall into a trance, wondering who this fairy was.
