Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Feng Ao Kuai looked at Mu Fei Jiu.

To be honest, Mu Fei Jiu's look was not comparable to Nan Hua, who was very beautiful. Having seen his cousin several times, Feng Ao Kuai's standards of beauty has been raised to an extremely high place.

It would be hard for him to think of others as beautiful.

After all, how many women could be compared with Nan Hua?

There were only very few of them.

But looking at Mu Fei Jiu's sleeping face, for some reasons he felt that she looked cute. Even if Mu Fei Jiu always smiled sweetly and acted coquettish, this was the first time he saw her looking very defenseless.

What appeared in his mind the first time he saw it was: 'Mu Fei Jiu is cute.'

The second thing is: 'I don't want others to see it.'

Feng Ao Kuai looked at Mu Fei Jiu's visage for a few more seconds before turning his face away.

"Go to Nan Family Residence."

The servant was surprised. He thought that Feng Ao Kuai would return to Mu Family Residence first. But because it was not his place to question his master's decision, he followed the order. "Yes, Master."

The carriage swayed as it traveled to Nan Family Residence.

Feng Ao Kuai watched Mu Fei Jiu's sleeping face thoughtfully. What attracted him to her at first was her thoughts and actions. But seeing her appearance, it didn't seem to be so bad either?

Just right when they were about to arrive, Mu Fei Jiu woke up and the first thing she saw was Feng Ao Kuai who was looking in her direction. Her mind turned blank before she recalled that she was waiting for him in the carriage.

"Second... Second Young Master Feng." Mu Fei Jiu tried to sit up. Her cheeks burn in embarrassment. She swore that she was only sleeping for a bit and it was not her intention to sleep until Feng Ao Kuai returned.

Feng Ao Kuai's lips tugged to form a faint smile. "We're in Nan Family Residence. Would you like to eat with me before returning to Mu Family Residence?"

"Ah?" Mu Fei Jiu was at a loss at Feng Ao Kuai's question before nodding like a chicken pecking rice. She felt really embarrassed right now and it was good that Feng Ao Kuai didn't mention anything about the thing just now.

As she thought about it, her cheeks reddened even more.

What would Feng Ao Kuai think of her now, ah? Even if she was playful on daily basis, she was not this unscrupulous. 

Feng Ao Kuai smiled faintly but didn't make Mu Fei Jiu more embarrassed.

Anyway, it was ungentlemanly of him to stare at a woman's sleeping face. It would be better not to mention this or she would be the one to sue him later.

A certain someone didn't realize that she was being tricked as the carriage stopped and the two of them entered Nan Family Residence.

"This…" Mu Fei Jiu looked at Nan Family Residence entrance in front of her with a blank look. Her original intention was to wait for Feng Ao Kuai and then returned to her own residence after seeing that he had done well.

But because she was sleeping, there was no chance for her to convey her meanings.

"Eat early dinner for a while before returning?" Feng Ao Kuai asked unhurriedly. It was too early to have dinner but too late to have lunch, so he could only say early dinner.

"Ah? Ok." Mu Fei Jiu nodded.

She couldn't possibly ask the carriage to turn to Mu Family Residence after coming here.

Feng Ao Kuai smiled and alighted down. After he had landed, he turned around and stretched his hand to help Mu Fei Jiu came down.

"Thank you," Mu Fei Jiu whispered in a low voice as she walked down the carriage.

"It's my duty." Feng Ao Kuai smiled.

The maidservant who followed Mu Fei Jiu: "…" Miss, please don't be fooled by him. This can only be done after marriage and before that, it should have been us, servants', role.

But give her twice the courage, she would still not dare to say it out loud in front of Feng Ao Kuai. No matter how gentle and amiable Feng Ao Kuai looked like, he was still a former commander. There was a powerful aura coming from him, which would make other people feel uncomfortable.

For Mu Fei Jiu, it was nothing much and Feng Ao Kuai restrained himself in front of her.

But in front of others…

Sorry, we could only lower our heads.

"Ao Kuai, Fourth Miss Mu." Nan Si Qiao looked at the two people in front of her with a knowing smile. It seemed that her guess of Mu Fei Jiu coming to Nan Family Residence had come true.

Thankfully, she had asked the kitchen to prepare more food.

"Mrs. Feng," Mu Fei Jiu quickly greeted.

"There's no need to be so polite." Nan Si Qiao showed a perfect smile. "Come inside, I have prepared food for you two."

"Yes, Mother."

"Yes, Mrs. Feng."

The two of them followed Nan Si Qiao inside.

Old Master Nan watched the scene from the pavilion in the distance and smiled faintly. It seemed that his hope for his second grandson to settle down would come true soon.

Now, should he start to think about his third grandson (Nan Luo)?

Great General Wei didn't seem to be very happy about this, but he gave Nan Luo a chance to prove himself. From the talk he had with Great General Wei, the general had agreed but only after he evaluated Nan Luo.

Of course, the talk can be done by the two families slowly while Nan Luo tempered himself on the battlefield.

'Just leave it be for now. When there's time in the future, I'll go and pay another visit.'

Old Master Nan nodded to himself and then returned to his courtyard in light steps. He felt happy to be able to see the future generations settled down.

But at the same time lamented at how fast time passed.
