"Wha? There's really a message directed to Grandpa?" Nan Luo was stupefied. He looked at Nan Hua. "Hua'er, how do you know that it's for Grandpa?"

Nan Hua looked at Nan Luo lazily. "He's not stupid enough to tarnish other people's reputation."

While the two of them were engaged, this ancient era's custom made it hard for the two of them to even interact with each other. Exchanging present secretly could already create gossips flow to the entire capital city, so there was no way Long Qian Xing would do something so stupid.

Thus, there must be another reason why he gave her the necklace.

Nan Hua could not think of anything else other than her grandfather. Despite coming to the Capital City to recuperate, Old Master Nan was still a famous general. There were enough soldiers around him.

Considering what would happen soon, Nan Hua could guess that he wanted Old Master Nan's help.

"Oh, you know this, Hua'er?" Old Master Nan was surprised.

Nan Hua tilted her head. "Huang Shu restaurant, either the date at the third next month or time."

She was not totally sure, but she could guess. There was Huang Shu Restaurant that belonged to another man under Prince Yang Zhou. That young man was quite annoying but he was a talented person whom Long Qian Xing recruited not long after coming to the capital city.

Old Master Nan looked at his granddaughter with his eyes widened. Afterwards, he laughed and patted her head. "Hua'er is really smart. Don't worry, that brat will not dare to do anything to me."

"Mhm."

Nan Hua was not worried at all.

On the other hand, Nan Luo was annoyed. "Why do you have to follow his wishes, Grandpa? He's just an annoying man!"

"I'll tell you later." Old Master Nan didn't think that it was the right time for these two children to know the matter of the nation. He would think about it later in the future.

He returned the necklace but kept the cloth with him. It would be dangerous if this thing fell into other people's hand. "Now, go to rest. You must be tired after going out."

"Yes!"

The twins returned to their respective rooms while Old Master Nan played with the cloth in his hand. He slowly walked to the pond at the side. "Hou Liang, do you think my grandchildren will be able to succeed me?"

"Master, I'm sure that both Young Master and Young Miss will be able to surpass you." Hou Liang was serious when he said that.

Old Master Nan laughed as he washed the cloth with the water to erase the ink. He had always felt disappointed when he saw that neither Nan Shu Cheng nor Nan Si Qiao had the talent to become a general. Whenever he thought about that, he felt that his legacy would end with him.

But with the appearance of Nan Luo and Nan Hua, he felt that these two would be able to recreate his achievement from before. Probably, even more.

Lowering his gaze to look at the now clean cloth, Old Master Nan smiled. "Heaven is kind to me. Just when I thought all hope is lost, He gave me new hope in the form of my grandchildren."

Hou Liang nodded in agreement. No matter what, with the two grandchildren so smart and talented at such young age, their potential was basically limitless.

The next day, the twins celebrated their birthday by having dinner together. Unfortunately for them, Old Master Nan still didn't skimp on their training. Thanks to that, they spent their morning and afternoon in Ning Shu Pavilion, either training swords or reading books.

It was only in the evening did he let them rest and prepare for the birthday celebration.

"Finally! Grandpa, why are you so harsh to us, ah?" Nan Luo protested after he had finally finished copying the book. His hand felt even more sore than when he was swinging his wooden sword in the entire morning.

"That's because you need it." Old Master Nan snorted. "If I didn't supervise you, I'm sure you'll never finish it."

Nan Luo pursed his lips but he didn't retort since it was true. He didn't understand why he needed to copy all these books. Wasn't it more fun for him to just swing his sword and become stronger?

"You brat, you need to use your brain even in fight." Old Master Nan was exasperated. This Nan Luo did learn some of the basics, but he didn't want to delve deeper. It often made him annoyed.

"Grandpa, it's going to be late soon! I want to celebrate our birthday with Hua'er," Nan Luo clowned.

Old Master Nan sighed and waved his hand. "Go and wash up."

"Yes!" Nan Luo then rushed back as if he was chased by wild dogs behind him.

Watching his grandson, Old Master Nan could only shake his head while feeling amused.
