129 Visiting Long Family Residence

Nan Shu Cheng's pupil constricted when he heard his father's words.

"Father, what do you mean by that?"

"Exactly as I said."

Nan Shu Cheng couldn't do anything as he watched his father's departing back. He was utterly confused. Old Master Nan's words sounded as if provoking the two children would yield worse consequences and that it was his father who was protecting him from these two.

But what could two children even do?

His father must be joking with him and only saying that in order to make sure that he didn't mess around.

…

Old Master Nan returned to his residence. He felt much better when he saw the two children who were eating at the dining room. Nan Luo was laughing and trying to feed Nan Hua, who was still as cold as ever.

His heart, which was previously quelled with rage, had now calmed down entirely.

"Hua'er, Ah Luo."

"Grandpa!" Nan Luo saw Old Master Nan and put down his chopsticks. He jumped down the chair and ran to his grandfather, throwing himself to the other party's arm. Old Master Nan helplessly caught his little grandson and patted the brat's head.

"Grandfather." Nan Hua was much calmer as she greeted him politely. Her dark obsidian eyes were observing him silently, checking whether he was fine or not after such a long trip outside.

Old Master Nan smiled. "Did you two behave when I'm away?"

"Yes!"

"Really?"

"Of course."

"Did you make friend?"

Nan Luo was stumped by Old Master Nan's question and turned his head to the side, clearly avoiding him. His action told Old Master Nan that the young boy must have not followed his instruction and didn't make any friend in the academy.

"You little brat! Can't you listen to my request and make friend? You're no longer a little kid!"

"I can't find anyone suitable, ouch!"

Bletak!

"Come over here, I need to spank you for failing to finish such a simple mission!"

"Wait, Grandpa, ack! Why do you really like to hit my head, ah?"

"That's because you're so naughty."

"But if you keep on hitting my head, wouldn't I turn stupid? Ouch!"

Nan Hua watched as Nan Luo ran around with Old Master Nan chasing him. The scene reminded her of the first time she came to this world. At that time, Nan Luo was also naughty as he caused Old Master Nan to chase him around and hit him with the walking stick.

This time, it was with the sword sheath.

The atmosphere was somewhat peaceful.

After some time, Old Master Nan let Nan Luo off and he looked over at Nan Hua. "Hua'er, are you bored when you're here?"

"Grandpa, why are you not asking me?" Nan Luo protested.

Old Master Nan glared. "Why should I ask you when you already create so much trouble at the academy?"

Nan Luo was speechless.

It was Old Master Nan's order for him to make friend. Because of that, he challenged the other boys in battle and have a fist to fist talk with them. He had challenged many of them and caused several others to cry in fear when they saw him.

Wasn't it because he was supposed to make friend with the others?

Seeing his grandson's expression, Old Master Nan felt headache. He was sure that Nan Luo didn't think that what he did was wrong and just challenged the boys who were following Nan Luo in hope of being able to befriend.

"I'm not making trouble. I was trying to make friend!"

"By challenging them all?"

"Yes!"

Old Master Nan raised his hand and slammed it at Nan Luo's head once more.

Bletak!

"Ouch! Grandpa…."

Nan Hua looked at Nan Luo and wondered whether that was the correct method to make friend. Based on the way Old Master Nan behaved, she was sure that it was not the correct method. He wouldn't be angry otherwise.

"Grandfather."

"Yes, Hua'er?" Old Master Nan finally stopped beating his grandson. He looked at his granddaughter and stroked her small head tenderly. The contrast in treatment caused Nan Luo to tear up slightly.

He must have been adopted!

"I want to visit Grandmother Long." Nan Hua had been waiting for this. If she didn't visit the Old Madam Long before she figured out a method to sneak into the academy, Old Madam Long might end up flooding their residence with invitation letter. At that time, what should she do?

Old Master Nan furrowed his eyebrows. "Why do you want to visit that Old Woman? She's such an annoyance and shouldn't be worth your time."

Nan Hua blinked her eyes. "Grandmother Long sent me several letters, asking me to come."

Old Master Nan was speechless. It seemed that since he was gone, that old woman daringly sent some messages to his granddaughter. When he was here, that old woman didn't dare to do so.

Very good.

She was really asking for another beating. If only his old friend was still here, he would not hesitate to complain to that person about how shameless his wife is.

"Fine, you can go but Ah Luo had to accompany you."

"I have to come?" Nan Luo was dumbstruck as he pointed a finger to his face. What was he supposed to do when Nan Hua was visiting Old Madam Long? Sparring with Long Qian Xing?

Wait, that didn't sound half bad. Long Qian Xing hadn't been at the academy for some time because he was participating in vanquishing the rebellions. Nan Luo was curious how would he fare against Long Qian Xing now after he had also managed to kill several assassins who tried to kill him for the past few months.

"Yes."

"Okay. I want to bring my sword along, Grandpa."

"...Fine." Old Master Nan could guess what Nan Luo was planning to do now that he saw the brat was grinning like that. He shook his head, thinking that the brat was quite annoying.

No… this brat was really annoying.
