Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 1049

Chapter 1049: Rational

Angry?

Nan Hua blinked her eyes.

She looked at Long Qian Xing in front of her. He was no longer a young man but a grown up by now. This year, he turned 20 years old, which meant that he could actually do his adulthood ceremony. Unlike women, the ceremony was more complicated.

But that was not what Nan Hua was paying attention to.

Long Qian Xing's face had become more defined. He was very handsome and still had the same faint smile on his face. However, there was no sense of fakeness from the smile as Nan Hua had always sensed it before.

He looked like a proper gentleman. Despite rushing here with his clothes slightly crumpled, it didn't erase his strong aura around him.

But what surprised Nan Hua the most was his tone.

His voice sounded so indulgent.

It was even more so than years ago when she was still staying by his side from time to time.

"I'm not angry, Young Master Long." Nan Hua replied unhurriedly.

Young Master Long.

When Long Qian Xing heard the way Nan Hua called him, his eyes flashed with helplessness. Why did she not call him like she used to? He really wanted her to call him more intimately just like before.

Long Qian Xing wanted to take another step.

But in the end, he didn't do it.

"Hua'er, are you angry because of the incident with the Empress Dowager and concubine before?" Long Qian Xing remembered that he had explained his way of thinking to Nan Hua. But at this moment, he really didn't know what he was supposed to say to coax the young woman in front of him.

"I only accepted it because it'll help with His Majesty's position, but I didn't return home at all." Long Qian Xing tried very hard to remember that matter. To be honest, there were so many schemes directed at him that he had a trouble remember all the benefits he got from each of them.

But if it would please Nan Hua, he didn't mind racking his brain to recall everything.

"I know, Young Master Long."

Nan Hua was not stupid. She knew very well that he did it because it would give him benefit without him needing to do anything. And with him being away at the frontline, the one whose reputation ended up tarnished was not him but that woman.

Uh… what was her name again?

Honestly, Nan Hua never put this matter too much into her mind because she was too preoccupied with many other matters. Besides, she used to didn't care so much about Long Qian Xing as she had already known his decision and ending.

His way of thinking was simple, but the steps could be extremely long.
