Chapter 205 - What You’re Allowed To Do
Nan Luo couldn't remember the exact details of what happened afterwards. He could only remember that he attacked his father and smashed that bowl in his direction.
Screams and yell filled the place as he argued with his father.
It took him everything in order to be able to calm down and not kill his own father in front of him. Even though Nan Hua was already in that condition, he could remember she tugged his sleeve, asking him not to.
His heart ached so much when he recalled that scene.
The commotion was so big and it even spread outside. Later on, Nan Luo also sneaked out and ignored the wounds he suffered because of that. He only cared about getting out of this cage and found his grandfather.
They got out of that hell.
But it was already too late.
His cheerful and bright sister had disappeared.
His kind and warm mother was gone.
His world fell apart.
Since that time, Nan Hua never pretended to be alright in front of him anymore. She was not smiling and the spirit in her eyes had long lost its luster. He was desperate to do anything just so that she could smile in his direction once more.
Just once more.
Return his twin sister in the past to him.
"Luo?" Nan Hua looked at her twin brother as she felt her heart ached. It was a strange feeling as she was sure that she was healthy and not sick in the slightest bit. Seeing Nan Luo's gaze, she had the inkling that he might have been thinking of something painful.
Nan Luo was startled. It was then he recalled that as twins, he had connection with Nan Hua. He smiled awkwardly and patted her head. "Just sleep, I'm just thinking of some things."
"Mhm." Nan Hua looked at her twin brother once more before she put her head on his shoulder once more. Her mind couldn't help but think about what had happened to Xiao Yun and Xiao Yan.
She felt that if they had told her sooner, she would be able to help them.
Unfortunately, they chose to hide it and Nan Hua only realized that the matter was related to Shangguan Family because of Xiao Yun's reaction.
If not for that, she might not know.
"We're back."
The four of them rushed to the main hall in Nan Family Residence. They could see their grandfather was staying there. He looked in the direction of the children and shook his head.
"Do you know how dangerous it is for you to go out like that?"
"Grandfather, we apologize."
Old Master Nan sighed and walked to them.
Bletak! Bletak! Bletak!
Three of them held their head as they crouched down. Feng Ao Si really wanted to cry because his body was still feeling body hurt because of General Shangguan. With his grandfather hitting him again, he only felt that he might break down because of pain now.
As for Nan Hua, Old Master Nan flicked her forehead.
Nan Hua rubbed her forehead and looked at Old Master Nan with her large eyes. "Sorry, Grandfather."
Old Master Nan patted her head. "Don't do it again. Even if you know that they're targeting your servants, you're not allowed to come personally. If they know about this, they'll try to target everyone around you and treated them as your weakness."
Weakness.
Nan Hua silently nodded. She shouldn't show her weakness to anyone outside. It was impulsive of her to choose to come directly when she realized that the time was tight. Thankfully, she didn't use her martial arts openly.
"You're grounded for a day."
"Yes, Grandfather."
"As for you three." Old Master Nan swept his gaze to the other three brats. He waved his hand. "Come with me for practice."
Feng Ao Si nearly vomited blood. Upon thinking that he would be getting another beating, he felt like his world had fallen apart. For some reason, he hoped that he was not a man so that his grandfather wouldn't treat him so harshly.
The three of them followed Old Master. Not a single one of them dared to disobey him.
"Whatever you find in Rou City, you're not allowed to confront Nan Shu Cheng directly." Old Master Nan looked at his youngest grandson.
Nan Luo flinched when he heard that. He looked at his grandfather and opened his mouth but no words came out. In the end, he could only close it once more and nodded. He really wanted to tear off the hypocrite mask of his father.
But with his grandfather's words, he knew that he couldn't do it.
"Don't put your life in danger just for some measly result." Old Master Nan patted Nan Luo's head. He turned to look at Feng Ao Kuai. "You may do something but you have to remember to not leave any trace. If they can, why can't you?"
Feng Ao Kuai originally thought that Old Master Nan didn't want them to do anything. But his words afterwards startled him. His lips curled up as his eyes flashed with ruthlessness. Since he was allowed to make a move, why not?
As long as there was no evidence left, it was fine?
Alright, he could do it.
"Yes, Grandfather."
Beside Feng Ao Kuai, Feng Ao Si shuddered when he sensed the ruthless glint on Feng Ao Kuai's eyes. Upon recalling the days in Feng Family Residence where Feng Ao Kuai pranked his other cousins yet no one realized that it was him… he felt that the peaceful days would be over.
His devious younger brother would surely be able to do this.
He silently lit a candle for those whom his younger brother targeted.
Old Master Nan looked at his grandson with a complicated gaze before sighing. He didn't really want to do this, but after thinking for some time, he felt that this might be the only choice for him.
"Alright, now that it's done, I'll have you practice fighting against me.. The peaceful days in Fei Yang Kingdom wouldn't last for long."
