"There's no hurry." Nan Hua was calm. "Since they had made a move, it meant that they're ready to pay for the consequences."
Nan Si lowered his head. He was only a few years older than Nan Hua, but his skill was not much different from her. Those in Dark Moon Organization had never found out about his past, but they knew that he was a kid who would only follow someone stronger than him.
Since Nan Hua was stronger than him, he followed and obeyed her completely.
"Issue the mission."
"Yes, Miss."
Swish!
Nan Si disappeared without any of the guards around Nan Hua ever noticing anything. They could not detect Nan Si's presence nor follow his movement as he entered Nan Hua's quarter easily.
The night passed quietly.
The next day, Nan Hua looked at the uninvited guest in front of her without any change in her expression. It didn't seem like she was interested in his presence either. Sitting in her courtyard, Nan Hua was calm.
"I didn't expect to see you here, Second Young Master Nan."
Nan Hou Xiang's face twisted a bit. He couldn't forget how Nan Hua stood in front of his mother yesterday and caused her to lose control. Just this morning, he saw how those servants were no longer respecting his mother as much as before.
They were thinking that since Madam Qu had fallen out of favor, it wouldn't take long for her to fell from grace.
This made him angry.
"Leave my mother alone." Nan Hou Xiang looked at Nan Hua coldly. He really didn't want to see anything related to her with his mother anymore. The more his mother saw Nan Hua, the crazier she would be.
Nan Hua looked at Nan Hou Xiang and tilted her head. "I didn't do anything, Second Young Master Nan."
Her words were calm and unhurried. It sounded like the voice of an innocent girl who really didn't understand what she had done wrong. Her clear black obsidian eyes were staring straight at the boy in front of her.
Nan Hou Xiang's face twisted in anger. "What do you mean that you didn't do anything? You're the one who clearly cause everything! If not for you… mother will never be in this state!"
Facing Nan Hou Xiang's outburst, Nan Hua merely stared at the boy in front of her calmly. She didn't have any intention of saying anything. Even if it did have some relation to her, would he be able to give evidence about it.
"Prove it."
The two words caused Nan Hou Xiang to flinch.
No matter how smart he is, he was nothing more than a mere 13 years old boy. He was only three months younger than Nan Hua, a child in the eyes of others. What he could do and knew were all very limited.
Many other people in his age were still playing around and not having to bother with anything. They didn't have to worry about their mother being schemed and fell out of favor like him.
