Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

"You're now daring enough to threaten your father?" Nan Shu Cheng's grip on the writing tool grew tighter. He was now looking at his daughter with increased hatred.

Just as Xiao Yun was worried that Nan Shu Cheng was going to lash out and lost his temper again, she heard her Miss continued her words unhurriedly.

"This daughter wouldn't dare. I merely state the facts." Nan Hua kept her back straight and her gaze clear. She was standing in front of Nan Shu Cheng without any intention of backing down at all.

She was not giving off any killing aura like what she did when she was facing the assassins in her organization, but this stance of hers had some inexplicable pressure. It made one feel that they were facing someone they couldn't defy.

Nan Shu Cheng felt as if he was seeing his father for a moment.

He snorted. "What close relationship with Mu Family would we have. Haven't you heard how much they hate us now?"

With him being the one to procure the evidences and caused the downfall of the entire family, would they even be polite? It was more likely that they would want to kill every people who were associated with Nan Family. There was no way they would want to be polite to them.

"I'm not visiting the entire Mu Family and only Fourth Miss Mu. Wouldn't she be sad if her friend didn't pay a visit when she's in trouble?" Nan Hua asked once more calmly.

Nan Shu Cheng looked at the daughter in front of him, feeling that he couldn't understand her more and more. He knew that if rumors were to spread like what Nan Hua said, he would be the one to bear the brunt once more.

After finally getting good contribution, would he let another rumor destroyed his career?

In this world that paid very high importance to reputation, it was easy to tell that not everyone would want to work with him if he had more bad reputation. The reputation of killing his own wife had been pinned on him.

It was only because there was no definite evidence that no one could say for sure.

But the rumors still floated around.

Now, he wanted another reputation of not allowing his daughter to pay a visit to her friend because he was afraid of trouble? He felt that this daughter of his only knew how to create trouble for him.

"Whatever happen to you, you better bear with it yourself." Nan Shu Cheng snorted coldly.

Nan Hua curtsied and walked out, her steps were calm and unhurried. It didn't seem as if she had just threated her own father but more like she had a simple talk with him.

Looking at his daughter's back, Nan Shu Cheng snorted. To think that he thought of his father when he was seeing his daughter. It was absurd. The two of them should have no connection whatsoever aside from having blood relationship with one another.

Nan Hua naturally didn't know that her father was having such thoughts.

She instructed the servants to prepare the carriage and asked them to head over to Mu Family Residence. While it was currently demolished, the surviving members should be still around.

Well, only very few of them were left alive.

The rest were all executed a few days ago and Nan Hua naturally had no interest to watch because she didn't even know them.

"Miss, please be careful and don't come out of the carriage carelessly," Xiao Yun reminded.

"I know."

Nan Hua looked outside the window as she could see the mess of the people there. Some people who didn't participate and merely enjoyed the result were all throwing tantrum. Without any nobility title, it was clear that their lives wouldn't be easy.

Among them, Nan Hua could see Mu Fei Jiu standing beside a middle aged man. She had never seen Mu Fei Jiu's father, but she could guess that the man beside her was her father.

"There's a carriage from Nan Family."

Mu Fei Jiu, who was watching her family members threw tantrum with schadenfreude, perked her ears when she heard that. The Mu Family was not exactly close with Nan Family and the only person who had some interaction with them was either her or her uncle.

Since there was no way Nan Shu Cheng would come here, the only person who would come would be Nan Hua.

Turning around, Mu Fei Jiu recognize the carriage and a sweet smile appeared on her lips.

"Jiu'er?" Fourth Master Mu, Mu Fei Jiu's father, asked when he saw his daughter smiling. Their family was in shambles and even though he didn't have much feeling towards his family members, live wouldn't be easy for them either.

Thus, he was surprised when he saw his second daughter's smile.

"Father, a friend of mine had come. Would you like to meet her?" Mu Fei Jiu asked with her sweet smile and coquettish tone.

Fourth Master Mu blinked his eyes. He was usually sick on the bed and rarely went outside, but he still heard many things from his second daughter. She loved to tell him various stories to relieve his boredom when he couldn't do anything and only stayed on the bed to recuperate.

He smiled kindly. "Since she's your friend, would it be appropriate for me to talk with her?"

Mu Fei Jiu's friend would be young ladies around her age. He was already an old man and didn't have much to talk in common with his daughter. If he were to come with her, what could he possibly talk with the other party?

"Don't worry, Father. She's very kind and will understand Father." Mu Fei Jiu chuckled. "Sister is also full of praise of her."

Mu Fei Xin?

Fourth Master Mu was now intrigued. What kind of girl could earn so much praise from both of his daughters? While the two of them always put on cheerful smile in front of him, he knew that his uselessness was a burden for the two of them.

It was already a miracle so far for him to be able to survive this long.
