Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 741

Chapter 741: Night Visit <2>

Long Qian Xing watched the girl's back and felt that her figure really looked lonely. It was as if she had to walk alone in a path that no other people will be able to follow. He instinctively wanted to reach for her, but he retracted his hand right afterwards.

It would be too abrupt. He didn't want to scare the little girl when she was still too young.

"Would you mind if I stay here, Hua'er?" Long Qian Xing asked in a low voice.

Nan Hua had reached her bed. She sat down and glanced at Long Qian Xing while tilting her head slightly to the side. "Why would you want to stay?"

"I want to."

Simple and unreasonable.

Looking at Long Qian Xing's easygoing figure, one wouldn't be able to think that this was the same youth who was actually capable of causing storm and affected the lives of thousands of people.

Nan Hua hummed lightly. "Brother Long, aren't you busy for His Majesty?"

"I don't have anything else to do right now. The preparation is not only my responsibility but also many others." Long Qian Xing chuckled. He walked forward and glanced at Nan Hua's table. There were many items placed on top of it, but the most eye catching was the pouch that Nan Hua embroidered.

Since she had just inspected it not long ago to check whether there was anything wrong or not, Nan Hua left it on the table. Her servants were tasked to pay attention to the party, making sure no one schemed against her or making trouble for her.

After all, not attending didn't mean that trouble wouldn't come knocking to her door.

It was better to be prepared.

"Do you make this, Hua'er?" _{ƒгeewebnovёl.com}

A light flashed within Nan Hua's eyes. She answered in a soft voice, "Yes. I'm practicing how to make pouch so that I can make one for my twin brother."

For her twin brother?

Looking at the star word on top of the pouch, Long Qian Xing's lips curled up to form a smirk. Why did he feel that she was only making an excuse? His hand stretched and took the pouch. The embroidery didn't look as superb as the one Long Qian Xing had seen in the palace, but it could be seen that there was progress along the making.

Only a small part looked a bit crooked while the rest looked pretty good. In fact, it seemed that the improvement was quite well done.

It was still worse than those top experts, but for a young lady of noble family, this was already really good.

"Do you mind if I take this?" Long Qian Xing asked slowly.

Nan Hua looked at Long Qian Xing and tilted her head. "Wouldn't your soldiers think it's weird when they see the word?"

"Why would they?" Long Qian Xing chuckled a bit. "It's the same word as my name, so they will just think that I'm naming my own pouch."

Nan Hua was silent.

The word she used to practice was indeed the 'star' word, but it was also the same as the word in Long Qian Xing's name. (Xing in Long Qian Xing's name meant star). There were many other words with similar meaning, but she had chosen this one back then after some contemplation.

"Hua'er," Long Qian Xing called, his voice was low and seductive. His eyes were watching the young girl in front of him with unreadable gaze.

Nan Hua hummed lightly. Her voice was small as she answered, "Brother Long can take it if Brother Long want."

Nan Hua was not a picky eater, but she thought that she really did like this candied sugar. The sweet taste tasted really good.

Long Qian Xing smiled when he saw Nan Hua looked at the bag. He made a mental note to prepare some sweet pastries for Nan Hua when she came to pay a visit to Long Family Residence. "When there's a chance, do pay a visit to Grandmother. She has been missing you a lot."

"I will, Brother Long."

"I have to go now." Long Qian Xing could sense that the guards who were staying in the party was slowly making their way back to their original post. At that time, it would be harder for him to leave.

Some of them were from the Imperial Guard who were sent in order to watch the movement of Nan Family.

He didn't want to be caught here and put Nan Hua in a difficult situation.

Nan Hua nodded. "Be careful, Brother Long."

"I will."

Long Qian Xing smiled one last time before he left through the window. Silently, he sneaked away from the quarter while evading the watchful eyes of the shadow guards.

Inside the room, Nan Hua was looking at the bag of candied sugar in her hand. She stared at it for a few seconds before opening the bag and took out one of them, putting it into her mouth. It tasted really sweet.

As she savored the sweet taste of the candied sugar, Nan Hua stared at the night sky.

She really didn't know what she should think about Long Qian Xing.

His action was confusing to her and she didn't know what to make out of her own feelings.
