Going back home, Nan Hua didn't try to turn and look in Shangguan Die's direction anymore. The secret of the Second Shangguan Family that Shangguan Die told her… she already knew about that.
In fact, it was something that couldn't be kept a secret since there were some eyewitnesses who survived. Nan Hua knew about it from the investigation she had asked Dark Moon Organization did to Shangguan Family.
However, she didn't plan on leaking it out.
It would be better to watch the drama in Shangguan Family played out from a distance rather than embroiling herself in their battle.
As for their ending?
She would not interfere in the slightest bit and let them fought it out themselves. In this matter, she was nothing more than an outsider who was watching a performance played out by those people.
When Nan Hua returned, it was already dark.
"Hua'er, did you have a hard time?" Old Master Nan asked as he walked closer to his granddaughter.
Nan Hua shook her head. "I have a good time, Grandfather."
"That's good to hear." Old Master Nan knew that Nan Hua was visiting Shangguan Die. While he was a bit surprised as to why Nan Hua would want to visit that fiery girl, he chose to let he do what she wanted rather than restricting her actions. "In two weeks, we're going to go. Is there anything you want to do in the meantime?"
"Grandfather, how about telling story about your previous battles?" Nan Hua asked. She had heard many of them, but it was impossible for Old Master Nan to have no story to tell. He had lived for so long and naturally it also meant there were many stories to tell.
As expected, Old Master Nan's eyes lit up. "Of course! Come to my study room after dinner to have some story."
"Yes, Grandfather."
"Oh right, that old woman sent a message." Old Master Nan furrowed his eyebrows when he recalled this matter. If only it was possible, he didn't want to let Nan Hua had any interaction whatsoever with Long Family.
However, the two families were tied with marriage engagement.
Aside from the fact that he was old friend with Old Master Long.
"Yes?"
"She wants you to visit Long Family Residence before that brat departed to the frontline." Old Master Nan's mood soured almost immediately. "If you don't want to go there, I can send a message on your behalf."
"I have promised Brother Long," Nan Hua gave her simple answer.
In other words: I will come.
Old Master Nan sighed and nodded. "Fine, but you're not allowed to stay for a long time. For other people, you should just say that you visit because Old Madam Long's health hadn't been good, alright?"
"Yes, Grandfather," Nan Hua answered obediently.
When Nan Hua first came to this world, she was also visiting Old Madam Long because of her poor health. Honestly, Nan Hua also wondered if there was any special reason why Old Madam Long wanted her to visit Long Family Residence at this time.
