Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower novel Chapter 497

Chapter 497 War of Words

They were all confused and it was impossible to ask directly.

Old Madam Long greeted her friends one by one before looking around the room. At this time, Nan Hua was standing not far from them, waiting for Old Madam Long to finish talking with the other old women. She was not that tactless to disturb them when they were talking so happily with each other.

Upon seeing Nan Hua, Old Madam Long's eyes lit up. She walked forward. "Hua'er, have you been well lately?"

"Grandmother," Nan Hua greeted politely. She nodded. "Yes, I'm well."

"That's good." Old Madam Long grabbed Nan Hua's hand and patted it tenderly. She knew that Nan Hua had been staying in Nan Shu Cheng's Residence for the past month. Because of this matter, she had been fretting from time to time.

What if Nan Shu Cheng kept on targeting Nan Hua?

What if she didn't like to stay there?

But upon seeing that Nan Hua was well, Old Madam Long put her heart at ease. Since it would be hard to invite Nan Hua to her residence, she still could pay a visit to some banquets where Nan Hua would be.

"Grandmother, you should have more rest." Nan Hua looked at Old Madam Long. With Old Madam Long's condition, it wouldn't do her good to stay outside and have so much exercise.

"In that case, you should come to visit me." Old Madam Long looked at Nan Hua unhappily.

Nan Hua felt a bit helpless when facing Old Madam Long's request. She nodded obediently. "I'll ask for Father's permission later, Grandmother."

"That's better." Old Madam Long beamed.

Her maidservant who helped her up had long gotten used to Old Madam Long treated Nan Hua better than her own grandchildren. On the other hand, the other ladies were all dumbfounded when they saw this scene. They felt as if Old Madam Long truly genuinely treated Nan Hua as if she was part of Long Family.

Who didn't know that Nan Hua was not of age yet?

Yet looking at the way things were progressing, they felt as if Nan Hua was already treated as part of Long Family. Old Madam Long was so fond of her that she was smiling so widely and openly.

If her real granddaughter was here, what would her reaction be?

On the other side of the hall, a woman was staring in their direction with her hand trembling. If not because of her poor countenance, she would have surely barged to her grandmother, asking why.

But she didn't dare to.

Not after she had lost so much face.

'You won't be able to laugh for much longer.' The woman snorted and looked away, suppressing the raging anger that was brewing deep within her heart.
