Chapter 374 Another Senior Brother

Chapter 374 Another Senior Brother

Three words to explain.

And it was all that Nan Luo needed. Traces of pain flashed within his eyes when he heard that. How could he not understand something so simple like that?

Feng Ao Kuai looked at Nan Luo. Afraid that this stupid cousin of his still didn't understand, he continued, "They only have each other to depend on since you can see how their parents are. Do you think it's possible for them to obtain what they want through normal means?"

Normal means?

What kind of normal means would be possible? The only possibility that the two of them would listen to them was if they could change the fundamental of Feng Mo Xing wouldn't die early.

But it was impossible unless they could repair the massive damages due to the parasites. The young boy was destined to die young, so Feng Qian Bo wouldn't want to spend any resources on him.

The only method that Feng Mo Yue could do was eliminate the two of them.

"What is it?" Feng Ao Kuai noticed that there was something strange with Nan Luo when he noticed the young boy lowered his eyes.

Nan Luo shook his head. "It's nothing."

He just recalled the conversation he had with Xiao Yan after that incident when Xiao Yun lost her parents. At that time, Xiao Yan clearly told him that he didn't want to change the image that his sister had about his parents.

It was the same as what Nan Hua did to him.

Thus, his mind was replaying the scene of when he found her once more.

…

On the day he found out everything, it was because he wanted to return home. He had been studying a lot and promised Nan Hua that he would return early to play with her. Because of that, he studied until late at night and managed to finish everything in time.

He rushed to his mother's quarter to play with Nan Hua.

But what he saw was a scene he would never be able to forget in his entire life.

A servant from Concubine Qu's side was holding a bowl filled with some unknown liquid. She was trying to feed his mother the medicine in that bowl. At the same time, Nan Hua was standing between their mother and the servant. Her eyes were filled with determination and hatred that seemed to stem from the bottom of her heart.

Blood was pouring from one side of her head, covering part of her face. Even though her head must be throbbing and hurt, she was still standing firmly.

In front of her, Nan Shu Cheng was holding a white porcelain bowl. At the edge of the bowl was blood.

"Father, please don't ask Mother to drink it!" the young Nan Hua pleaded. She was only eight years old at that time and her voice sounded so desperate as she pleaded.

That desperate voice broke the last string in Nan Luo's heart.

…

She was already cornered until that point, but she still refused to say anything to him because she didn't want him to know.

How stupid.

But it might have been his mother's instruction to his sister. After all, his mother wouldn't want him to stop his study just because he wanted to stay with his mother and twin sister to make sure that his father didn't bully them.

At this time, Mu Yan came. "Miss, Traveling Doctor Liu had come and asked for your presence."

Nan Hua arched her eyebrows. Her Master often came to find her but most of the time, he would find the time to search for her grandfather to persuade him first. The time when he directly tried to find her was rare.

"I'll be right there." Nan Hua looked at the other two. "I'll be going first, Luo, Brother Ao Kuai."

"Take care, Hua'er."

Feng Ao Kuai also nodded. He then waved his hand and Si Kang procured a Go Board. Upon looking at that board, Nan Luo was speechless. When would he finally find peace without his older cousin pestering him to play Go?

He had been beaten countless times, alright?!

Nan Hua headed to the main hall and noticed Traveling Doctor Liu was there. Upon seeing her, his eyes lit up. "Hua'er, wear a hood or something. I'm going to bring you to meet your Senior Brother."

Seeing Traveling Doctor Liu acting so mysteriously, Nan Hua nodded obediently. She took the hood that Xiao Yun brought with her and wore it. With that, it covered her so that no one would be able to guess that she was First Young Miss Nan.

Traveling Doctor Liu looked at the back. "Also, please dismiss your shadows."

"Okay."

With a wave of her hand, Hou Lin instructed the other shadows to not follow them. Even though their task was to protect Nan Hua, they knew that Nan Hua could easily paralyze them if she wanted to. The best option would be to follow her order.

It was not like she couldn't protect herself.

The two of them didn't go through the front door but through the side door. Looking at how Traveling Doctor Liu was acting very cautiously, Nan Hua was feeling a bit apprehensive. Her senior brother might be an important person whose whereabouts couldn't be shown to anyone.

Soon, they reached a teahouse.

Traveling Doctor Liu walked straight to the second floor and opened the private room door. "We're back."

"You sure take your time."

The voice of the man was languid, yet it carried the trace of arrogance that couldn't be hidden. As Traveling Doctor Liu stepped to the side, Nan Hua could see that the one in front of her was a man in his thirties with sharp countenance. He exuded an aura that made one find it difficult to look away from him.

The man moved his line of sight and looked at Nan Hua. The corner of his lips curled up to form a smile. "Your taste is still as peculiar as ever, Master."

Traveling Doctor Liu was speechless. "This is your junior sister. Her name is Nan Hua. Hua'er, this is your eight senior brother, Qi Kan Tian."

Qi?

Nan Hua blinked her eyes. It was the surname of the Imperial Family in Qi Xi Kingdom, right?
