Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 644 As Beautiful as a Fairy

<Long Qian Xing's side>

It was the next day that Long Qian Xing received news that Nan Hua would be visiting Long Family Residence. He hadn't stayed in Long Family Residence since he wanted to show his attitude towards the Empress' Edict.

What he didn't expect was that his grandmother took the matter into her hand and invited Nan Hua first.

"Are you going to visit Long Family Residence?" Lin Yuan asked in the teasing tone when he saw the letter. He was naturally here to pay a visit to Long Qian Xing since he didn't get the chance to do so when Long Qian Xing was so busy at the frontline.

Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. "Are you so idle, Lin Yuan?"

"No, no, I'm so busy!"

Lin Yuan knew that if he dared to say that he was idle, Long Qian Xing would surely drag him to have some exercise. At that time, he wouldn't know where he should cry and complain about Long Qian Xing's treatment.

"In that case, you should settle your business! Long Qian Xing kept the letter away and stood up. He instructed his servants to prepare his carriage because he wanted to pay a visit to Long Family Residence. Looking at how fast Long Qian Xing moved, Lin Yuan silently mocked his friend. It really looked like he received a kings summon when he was receiving a piece of news that told him his fiancee was paying a visit to his grandmother.

"How fickle."

Thankfully, Lin Yuan didn't say his real thoughts out loud or Long Qian Xing wouldn't let him off.

Long Qian Xing reached the Long Family Residence almost at the same time as Nan Him. He looked at the carriage that had just parked in front of his residence with a complicated feeling.

It has only been a few months since the last time he saw Nan Hua, yet he felt that he wanted to see the young lady right away. Even though he knew that his grandmother wouldn't harm her, he couldn't help but worry since there were some other annoying people in Long Family Residence. 

"Young Master, we have arrived." 

"I know." 

Long Qian Xing alighted down and walked to the gate. He could hear the laughter of his grandmother as he reached the gate and the servants brought him. Almost instantly, he could see the young girl who stood not far from his grandmother.

Nan Hua.

Today, Nan Hue was dressed in pink colored dress with petals pattern. Her exquisite face had started to lose even more fat compared to before, making her look both adorable and cute. Her hair was tied up in an intricate braid pattern With fair skin as white as snow, large eyes brimming with sense of coldness and detachment, and eyebrows like willow leaves, it just increased her charm.

It made one wished to be able to stand before her, pamper her and made her happy, just so that they would be able to receive a smile from her.

Long Qian Xing felt that there was a fishbone stuck in his throat when he saw Nan Hua's appearance. She was about to turn 04 this year, yet her charm had already started to show so brightly that it overshadowed everyone else.

How would she look like when she reached 58 years old?

The only phrase struck within Long Qian Xing's mind was 'as beautiful as fairy.' 

Girls didn't usually increase in height again after 12 years old, so Long Qian Xing could guess that Nan Hue's height would also stay the same. However, her face would look even more mature and exquisite.

And her appearance also made Long Qian Xing start to unable to look at her as a mere 'young girl who hadn't grown up yet.' She used to be a cute small porcelain doll that he could treat as a little kid and teased from time to time.

But not anymore. 

She's a young woman, who had started to grow up and showed her wings. 

And also his fiancée. Suppressing the thoughts within his heart, Long Chan Xing stepped forward and cupped his fist "Grandmother, Hua'er."

"You're finally back." Old Madam Long snorted when she saw her grandson. Indeed, the easiest method for her to bring this rascally brat back to Long Family Residence would be to invite Nan Hua here.

"I was busy, Grandmother." Long than Xing smiled. 

Different from his father who would turn weak when facing old Madam Long, Long Qian Xing was a natural rascal. He would still act as himself and didn't try to coax his grandmother like an obedient little kid.

Old Madam Long snorted. "Come inside. I have prepared plum tea. Its still summer, so iced plum tea should be nice for you." 

"Thank you, Grandmother," Nan H. replied in a soft voice. 

Long Qian Xing took a peek towards Nan Hua and felt that her voice had grown even more pleasing to his ear. If only he could grow up faster, it would have been very nice because it meant that he could stay with Nan Hua for a long period of time.

Wait... 

Why did he think this way?

He still had to spend most of his time at the frontline. There was no way he would be able to spend the rest of his time idling around in his residence when the entire kingdom was in turmoil of war.

How stupid of him. 

While Long Qian Xing was berating himself silently, Nan Hua was silently wondering whether it was a wise decision for her to come here or not. She knew that Long Qian Xing would settle the matter of those concubines who came when he returned to Long Family Residence.

Since she had come here, it meant that he would do it today. 

'I'm just watching a show.' 

That was all Nan Hua could think to herself as she followed Old Madam Long to the garden. The table was already prepared along with the chairs. 

Looking at the chairs, Lang Qian Xing really wanted to look at his grandmother and asked her, There are clearly three chairs prepared. Aren't you planning on having me return from the very beginning?' 

But naturally, Long Qian Xing would not expose his grandmother.
