Back at Nan Luo's side
Old Master Nan and Nan Luo quickly headed out because they didn't really have anything else to do. Everything that was supposed to be settled had been settled before this day.
"Grandfather, what is that person doing here?" Nan Luo looked at the eyesore and mumbled.
Old Master Nan laughed dryly. "It's also the time for him to go to the battlefield, Luo. What's so weird about him coming here?"
Nan Luo looked at his grandfather, wondering whether his grandfather was mocking him or truly didn't know. But when he saw the gloating expression on his grandfather's face, he understood that his grandfather knew.
Knew but he was happy with this outcome.
Nan Luo was speechless.
Today was supposed to be the day Long Family Residence welcomed a new mistress named Shangguan Mi. As the husband, Long Qian Xing didn't even bother to take a look at the new mistress but departed to the frontline almost immediately.
Who knew what words would spread by tomorrow?
"Luo, you're here." Feng Ao Si waved his hand. "How's the condition in Nan Family Residence?"
"I don't know because I don't really enter inside." Nan Luo swept his gaze across the soldiers. It just dawned to him that from now on, this would be the scene that he would see very often when he opened his eyes.
There was no more comfortable bed and comfortable food.
Everyday would be a struggle for them in order to protect Fei Yang Kingdom from the other kingdoms who wanted a piece of them.
"I see."
Feng Ao Kuai walked over while guiding a horse behind him. He looked at Nan Luo and nodded his head. From his gaze, Nan Luo could tell that Feng Ao Kuai was warning him not to mess things up.
While the three children talked to each other, Old Master Nan walked over to Long Qian Xing's side. Looking at how Long Qian Xing had dressed himself, it looked as if he was going for a war almost immediately.
"Great General Nan," Long Qian Xing greeted first.
Old Master Nan nodded. "Young Commander Long."
"To what do I owe your presence?" Long Qian Xing asked with a courteous smile on his face. It might look polite on the surface, but other people wouldn't be able to guess what was inside his mind.
Old Master Nan had met several people who were like Long Qian Xing, but he always felt that this youngster was somewhat more complicated or harder to read. But of course, he would not mention this. He only felt that his old friend's grandson was somewhat interesting.
"I didn't expect to see you here today, Young Commander Long."
"If I'm not here, where should I be?" Long Qian Xing asked back, as if clueless of the fact that he was supposed to be welcoming a concubine today.
