Chapter 475 Lantern

Fact proved that eating sugar painting while still wearing a veil was a hassle. In the end, Nan Hua moved to a deserted street in order to be able to eat in peace without using the veil.

Nan Luo and Feng Ao Si were busy to look around. After three years of not celebrating Lantern Festival properly, they finally had the chance to enjoy it once more. This time, they bought a lot of food to satisfy their stomach.

There were also some foods that was recently made by the commoners to add colors for their daily lives.

Feng Ao Kuai glanced at the group of people while sat near Nan Hua calmly. He was not exactly interested in the festival and mostly used this chance to observe the people who were passing through.

"There are a lot of thorns here. Are you sure that you'll be alright?" Feng Ao Kuai asked softly.

"They won't be able to harm me." Nan Hua was calm as she continued to lick the sugar painting. Without the veil, it felt much better for her.

Feng Ao Kuai then glanced at Long Qian Xing, who was buying a lantern for Nan Hua. There was a complex gaze within his eyes. "Hua'er, do you like him?"

Like him?

Nan Hua was puzzled by the question.

"He treats me well." So I'll also treat him well.

Feng Ao Kuai: "…" that simple?

But of course, he would not believe that Nan Hua was a gullible little girl. He knew very well that she could detect when someone had another intention when facing her, causing her enemies to fail to harm her. Sometimes, Nan Hua would play along but many other times, she would choose not to pamper them and directly stepped away.

It was like a game for her where she controlled the situation yet it didn't look that way from outside.

*sigh*

"I'm worried."

Nan Hua stopped and glanced at Feng Ao Kuai.

"If he had other motives to get close to you, will you be able to bear with it?"

"Why not?"

Seeing Nan Hua's puzzled gaze, Feng Ao Kuai knew that this little girl was also someone who was rather clueless in terms of her feelings. Even though she was no longer as cold as she was four years ago, she was still rather blank in that field.

Honestly, Feng Ao Kuai would be happy if Long Qian Xing and Nan Hua were to develop feelings for each other. But he couldn't shake the feeling that Long Qian Xing might not necessarily like this little girl.

And if that happened, the one who got hurt would be his little cousin.

"If there's anything, do tell me, alright?"

"Okay."

At this time, Long Qian Xing had already bought the lantern. He watched Nan Hua ate the sugar painting slowly. The sight of the young girl enjoying her food caused a smile to tug at the corner of his lips. He walked closer and handed the lantern. "For you, Hua'er."

"Thank you, Brother Long." Nan Hua accepted the lantern and lightly caressed it.

Long Qian Xing smiled and nodded. His eyes narrowed when he saw the people in the distance. Even when he was in the Capital City, those pests were still tailing him and tried to catch him off guard.

How annoying.

"Hua'er, I'll go back first. You shouldn't stay outside for long either.

"Yes, Brother Long."

Nan Luo and Feng Ao Si also returned with lantern and a bowl of mutton soup. It seemed that the two of them have finished having fun too.

"Let's go back. You still owe us a spar." Feng Ao Si grinned.

Feng Ao Kuai glared at his older brother and Feng Ao Si quickly shut his mouth. Thankfully, no one would be able to know that he was talking with Nan Hua because Feng Ao Kuai was right beside her.

Nan Luo grinned and rubbed his palm together. He felt excited for their last spar before departure this time.

Would it be possible for him to defeat Nan Hua this time?

Long Family Residence

While the three children excitedly went back to have their last spar, Long Qian Xing headed back home and directly entered his study. He knocked on the table. "How's things?"

"The concubines are trying to poison Old Madam. We have already disposed that one," a voice came from the back.

Long Qian Xing's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. There were a lot of concubines that the previous Emperor forced his father to take. And it was also because of this that his father never went back home.

He didn't want to get embroiled in their schemes and chose to focus on the frontline.

"Harming their own mother in law, how vicious." Long Qian Xing took a bamboo stick and write a few letters on top of it. "Send news to her family members about what she's planning to do. If they don't wish for the matter to spread, they better behave and not make things difficult."

"Yes, Master."

Long Qian Xing rubbed his forehead. Ever since he came back, there would always be trouble coming at him. As he had expected, his grandmother was a great expert to be able to put the rein on these women.

It was just that the rein grew loose because he was staying here temporarily.

He glanced at the door as he could see shadow looming over. His dark eyes flashed with ruthlessness.

Just good.

He could use this chance to eradicate most of them, cleaning his residence from the pests that was hard to kick.

If only they behaved, he would have let them alone. But if they tried to scheme in order to climb their way upwards, he would not be polite either.

"Young Master Long, are you back?"

Long Qian Xing took a deep breath and replied, "Who is it?"

"This is Madam Su Mi, Young Master Long."

"What are you doing here?"

"Young Master Long had been staying out for a long time, so this one tried to cook some nutritious soup for you…"
