Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 869: Trust and Distrust (1)

After Nan Hua spent her time watching the battle from the distance, the dust eventually settled. In the evening, Ji Han Yu came to Nan Hua with a big smile on his face.         

    

Looking at him like this, he looked like a foolish boy rather than the scary bandit like man who carried an axe everywhere.     

"Young Miss, the first battle is very easy. They're all willing to listen and move. Some of them are even going to be the new members." Ji Han Yu was delighted at this easy work and also the battles he could do.     

He was already itching to have some fight!     

Nan Hua passed a look at Ji Han Yu. "You'll continue with the rest."     

"Yes, Miss!" Ji Han Yu was happy at this task. He was about to ask more when he saw Si Mo Fan walking over. His face changed immediately. "What are you doing here? Didn't you say that you're busy as the leader of Dark Moon?"     

Si Mo Fan snorted. "Do you think that I'm like you who only know how to wave his fist around? I have already finished my work."     

"Really?"     

Feeling that it would be a waste of time to talk with the annoying Ji Han Yu, Si Mo Fan continued walking. He smiled at Nan Hua. "Miss, the arrangement for Hui Ling is done. No one will be able to figure out his identity anymore."     

"Good."     

"Hui Ling?" Ji Han Yu felt that the name was foreign before he turned to look at the boy, who was pulling the herbs from the ground. "You're talking about that boy? Why do you care so much about that stinky boy?"

Si Mo Fan was speechless. "It's Miss's order."     

"Huh? Miss, did you think that that brat was good? I think that he's barely average and couldn't be compared with me!"     

Nan Hua looked at Ji Han Yu. Why did she feel that Ji Han Yu was really childish?     

He looked like a little kid who was competing candies with another little kid.     

"First of all, Hui Ling is not as brainless as you." Si Mo Fan rolled his eyes. "Secondly, do you think that you're as good as him when you're at his age?"     

Ji Han Yu fell silent. Thinking about it from that perspective, it seemed that Si Mo Fan was correct. There was no way that he would be able to be as good as Hui Ling when he was at that brat's age.     

Hui Ling was like a natural hunter.     

He would fight with his all and attacked the weak points of others without hesitation. Even without others teaching him, his fighting power was really good.     

In addition, his talent was really good.     

It has only been a day since Nan Hua gave him the dagger and Hui Ling could already use it to fight. Even if it was clumsy, but his natural movement was not something that ordinary people could achieve even with months or years of training.     

"Talent is very infuriating." Ji Han Yu groaned.     

Si Mo Fan rolled his eyes. "Miss, do you think that it's possible to recruit Hui Ling faster into Dark Moon Organization? He's not completely clueless about the world and should have known about this organization."     

"There's no hurry." Nan Hua looked at Hui Ling, who was chewing the herbs by now. "Being treated worse than trash, he had low trust to the outside world. It's better to let him adapt as a human being first."     

Adapt as a human being?     

Ji Han Yu and Si Mo Fan were both at lost. Even if they had heard about Hui Ling's condition and could sympathize with him, it was hard for them to truly understood what the boy had gone through.         

    

Nan Hua put the bamboo scrolls away.     

When she saw Hui Ling, Nan Hua just felt as if she was looking at her past self before she came to this world. It was also because of this that she could see the fragility behind the cover and also the strong distrust of the world that Hui Ling emanated.     

For him, the warmth that human being gave to others were something extremely strange.     

His mother didn't want him, the villagers bullied him at will, no one seemed to be willing to give him any chance.     

But his pride made him detest people who pity him.     

Nan Hua could see it. Even though she felt that it was troublesome, she herself would hate others who blatantly took pity on her and said that she was pitiful. Nan Hua never felt that she was pitiful.     

Even if life was hard, she could still go through it.     

There were many other people who live worse than her and died earlier just because they were not strong enough.

For her, they were more pitiful.     

Since she herself didn't want others to pity her, she would not give any pity or sympathy to Hui Ling. She would simply give him the chance to truly realize his worth and made him say what he wanted to do.     

Not for him to become a wild beast that kept on attacking other people, but to adapt to how the world worked.     

As for giving him warmth?     

Sorry, she was incapable of that.     

As someone who also had strong distrust of others, Nan Hua would never be able to easily give her heart to other people.     

She only saw Hui Ling's potential.     

And it was because she didn't want to see someone else ended up being other people's tool like she did that she would treat him as human beings.     

"Miss, do you think that he'll be willing to join the organization afterwards?" Ji Han Yu asked curiously.     

"You'll take care of it."     

Ji Han Yu's face was dark when he heard that. He was really not good at handling children. In his eyes, they were nothing more than annoying troublemakers who couldn't do anything but to create more troubles.     

Asking him to take care of Hui Ling?     

He felt that the task of bowing down to Si Mo Fan was 100 times easier than that.
