Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 149

Nan Hua looked at her grandfather. She knew that he wanted to know her plan, but if she told him, she might need to explain more things that shouldn't be said. How could she possibly say to him that she was not his granddaughter but instead someone from the future?

She had already treated herself as Nan Hua.

Every single day that passed for the past year had made her contemplated whether she should tell him or not. But in the end, she didn't. The entire concept of transmigration itself was strange.

Not to mention…

Her servants didn't even notice the difference of her minor habits. It was strange considering that Xiao Yun, Mu Yan, and previously Bai Yin were close to her. No matter how good she was at acting, it was impossible for her to know the minor and small unconscious habits of the original Nan Hua.

Yet, they didn't notice anything strange. It was as if all the small habits she had was exactly the same as the original Nan Hua.

Thus, she chose to continue living as Nan Hua and slowly reveal herself to her grandfather. That way, he would only think of her change because of the training she had with the other shadows.

"Grandfather, I…."

"You don't have to tell me." Old Master Nan patted Nan Hua's head tenderly. "Whatever you plan to do, I'll always support you, Hua'er."

"Mhm."

Nan Hua stayed silent. The only one who showed her warmth in her life were her grandfather, her twins, her aunt, and her two cousins in this world plus her fiancé and his grandmother. Being cared by others felt strange for her, but she wanted to strong enough so that she could protect them too.

This world was dangerous and if one wished to survive, they would need to have enough power. Being alone was not enough.

"Go to sleep. It's late."

"Yes, Grandfather." Nan Hua obediently walked to the door.

"I'll give some excuse to the court for me to visit Heng Xing City," Old Master Nan added before Nan Hua walked past the door. He smiled faintly. "Don't worry, Grandpa will support you."

"Mhm, thank you, Grandfather."

"Don't be so polite."

Nan Hua nodded then walked out of the room.

Old Master Nan stayed in his position and sighed. He looked at Hou Liang. "Has that brat from Zhang Family get permission?"

"Replying to Master, Zhang Dan Shui had already obtained permission and will leave to Heng Xing City soon. In addition, there'll be another group of escorts through the same way."

Hou Lin had reported to him about Zhang Dan Shui. In fact, Old Master Nan had sent someone to watch over the young man because of his granddaughter's movement. After knowing that Zhang Dan Shui asked for permission to be transferred to Heng Xing City and asked for fund to develop the city, he had a guess that Nan Hua would ask too.

As he had expected, she came to him directly.

"She's already doing everything by herself now, huh?" Old Master Nan lamented slightly.

"Master, at least Miss still ask for your help."

Old Master Nan rolled his eyes. "I'm not complaining!"

Hou Lin glanced at Old Master Nan then said nothing else. Seeing how Old Master Nan sulked, he knew that Old Master Nan wanted to do everything for his granddaughter but worried that she wouldn't like it. In the end, he could only help her a bit from the sidelines.

He felt that the old master should have just asked the young miss if he wanted to be more involved in her plan. There was no need for him to act as if he was not curious, was there?

Though, Hou Lin would not dare to say this in the slightest bit.

He still treasured his life.

…

After a few days, Old Master Nan got the permission he required to visit Heng Xing City. His excuse? He was already old and wished to travel around the villages around the Capital City to recuperate. Since there would be an escort who would transport some officials to some of the areas that got damaged from the rebellions before, he would tag along.

"We're going?" Nan Luo was stunned when he heard from Old Master Nan that they would be leaving the city soon.

Old Master Nan nodded. "Yes, we're going to visit Heng Xing City."
