Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

It was indeed the fastest way, but it would definitely cause… agh. He better figured out a way to tell their grandfather about this matter without getting beaten up in the process. But no matter how he thought of twisting his words, he couldn't think of anything good.

Whatever he said… he felt that it would make their grandfather want to strangle the two of them.

Right now, he really wanted to call Nan Luo to come here.

Nan Hua was looking at Feng Ao Kuai and still thinking about the plan she had made. It was actually something that also happened in the original story, but Nan Hua hastened the timeline.

But there were still things that bothered her.

Feng Ao Kuai's loyalty to the original Nan Hua.

And also the reasons why the original Nan Hua died in the story.

Some things… still didn't match up.

"Xiao Yun, sent a letter to Long Family Residence. I'll pay a visit tomorrow."

"Yes, Miss."

…

<The next day, Long Family Residence>

Long Qian Xing looked at Luo Qing Wei as the latter walked out of his grandmother's room. She had already finished doing the treatment. For the past two months or so, she had been coming to his residence every single day in order to give the treatment.

And after it was finished, she always gave various excuses to stay longer.

It was to the point that Long Qian Xing was tired of giving the rejection. If only he didn't need her to cure his grandmother, he would not even bother opening the door of his residence to her.

Aside from that, Kuang Shen also came with her all the time.

If not because Long Qian Xing knew about Kuang Shen background and the pile of evidences he gave to Emperor Yang Zhou, he would really think that Kuang Shen was only here to accompany his junior sister.

"Brother Long, the treatment is complete," Luo Qing Wei said in her soft voice. There was a trace of disappointment within her tone, but she still knew that as a doctor, she should do her best in treating her patient. Even though she wanted to stay here longer, she couldn't delay Old Madam Long's treatment.

And now, it was done.

Long Qian Xing looked at Luo Qing Wei and answered coolly, "This one thanks Apprentice Doctor Luo for your help. However, I would like to remind you to please not call me with brother. Others who didn't know will think differently."

Wasn't it just him trying to get away from her?

Luo Qing Wei pursed her lips unhappily. She really wanted to be able to get close to Long Qian Xing, but she knew that if she did more than this, he would be unhappy.

"Okay, Young Master Long."

Long Qian Xing nodded and beckoned for his maid to come forward. "This is your payment for today's treatment."

Luo Qing Wei's eyes dimmed.

The treatment from Long Qian Xing had always been polite and rather generous if one should say. They even give her a lot of money in exchange for her treatment to Old Madam Long.

It just showed how much Old Madam Long meant to Long Qian Xing.

But at the same time, Luo Qing Wei knew that Long Qian Xing was using this way to get away from her. He was being polite and respectful, which showed that the two of them were distant from each other.

This made her unhappy, but she couldn't possibly pester him shamelessly.

She was not that stupid to the point that she would throw everything away just in order to chase him.

Clenching her fingers, Luo Qing Wei curtsied. "Thank you for your courtesy, Young Master Long."

"It is what I should do."

Cold and distant appearance.

Even though Long Qian Xing was smiling like how a gentleman would, his voice sounded extremely polite. He was trying to create more distance between her and him. This only made Luo Qing Wei feel even worse.

Why did he not want to accept her?

But even though she though that way, Luo Qing Wei merely lowered her head pitifully and accepted the bag. She then looked at Kuang Shen as if asking whether he would like to leave right away or not.

"Wait in the carriage for a bit, Junior Sister Luo."

"Yes, Senior Brother Kuang."

Kuang Shen waited until Luo Qing Wei was a distance away before turning to look at Long Qian Xing. His expression was no longer the same as before. He scowled a bit, "I thought that Young Master Long is a true gentleman."

"A gentleman will not give false hope." Long Qian Xing was calm. He merely stared back at Kuang Shen and sneered. "And do you really want to see the girl you fancy be with someone else?"

Hearing those words, Kuang Shen's face changed a bit. His real thoughts were exposed, and he naturally felt a bit embarrassed. However, he merely snorted in the end and turned to look in the other direction.

"If that makes her happy, then I don't mind."

"Are you telling me to sacrifice my happiness for someone else?" Long Qian Xing shook his head. "I worked hard to get into this position so that no one will be able to order me what I don't want to do anymore. Suppose you think that I would want to lower my head and follow your wishes just because you have some capabilities. In that case, you're totally wrong, Ghost Doctor Kuang Shen."

The title startled Kuang Shen.

He raised his head and looked at Long Qian Xing. His expression turned solemn. He felt that whatever he had was laid bare in front of this man in front of him. And that was one of the reasons why Kuang Shen didn't want to go against Long Qian Xing from the very beginning.

Not to mention, his relationship with his twelfth junior sister was still rather awkward. He didn't want to worsen the situation by having a clash against Long Qian Xing.

He only lashed out at Long Qian Xing because… he saw Luo Qing Wei being unhappy.

He didn't want to see her unhappy.

It was even more so because he knew the source of her unhappiness was Long Qian Xing, the man with whom he didn't have a good impression.

"I admit that you're powerful Young Commander Long. However, I'm not going to let you off if you hurt her."

"I have no plans to even bother her if she didn't try to do anything." Long Qian Xing sneered. "Do you really think I have so much free time to bother with an insignificant person?"

At this moment, Kuang Shen didn't know what he should be feeling.

Should he be happy because Long Qian Xing clearly stated that he didn't like Luo Qing Wei? Or should he be angry because Long Qian Xing's words made it sound like Luo Qing Wei wasn't worth anything?

Taking a deep breath, Kuang Shen turned around. "Are you not going to give her a chance at all?"

"I have made a promise to my fiancée. I'm not a man who will go back on his words so easily." Long Qian Xing looked at Kuang Shen deeply. "You have already finished taking your revenge, haven't you?"

When Kuang Shen first asked Long Qian Xing to meet with Emperor Yang Zhou, Long Qian Xing had specifically asked for his target. At that time, Kuang Sheng had sworn that he would never aim toward his twelfth junior sister as he couldn't hurt his junior sister because of his master.

It was only because of this swear that Long Qian Xing agreed to let the two of them meet and even helped them.

However, this doesn't mean he would let Kuang Shen use him.

Long Qian Xing was not that kind.

He only helped Kuang Shen because Kuang Sheng could help his fiancée get rid of that annoying 'father' of hers. Since that was the case, he didn't mind helping Kuang Shen a bit.

"I have."

"I believe you have nothing else to do in the Fei Yang Kingdom. Even if you have a prestigious title that causes you to be sought after by many people, I wouldn't want you to be here. If not because you're my fiancée's senior brother, I will not open the door for you."

Kuang Shen laughed coldly. He felt that Long Qian Xing was really ridiculous. What was the harm in taking another woman as his concubine? Though, he knew that based on the personality of his two junior sisters, the two of them would not get along well with each other.

This was also the reason why he didn't know what he was supposed to do.

Continue forcing Long Qian Xing?

He was sure that Luo Qing Wei wouldn't be happy if he were to press Long Qian Xing about this matter.

"I should have told Junior Sister Luo to not treat your grandmother if you didn't accept her."
