Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Nan Hou Xiang and Nan Xin?

Nan Luo looked at the servants coldly. "What are they doing here? No, what do they want by coming here?"

"Second Young Master Nan said that he wants to ask Young Master to eat with them."

"Eat and get poisoned?" Nan Luo sneered. He knew very well that he and Nan Hou Xiang couldn't stand the sight of each other. The time when the two of them resisted the urge to kill each other was numerous.

They might be blood related brother.

But they wanted each other's death.

"They wouldn't do that." Nan Hua passed a look at Nan Luo. If they truly poisoned her or Nan Luo openly by inviting to eat together, suspicion would be placed on them from the very beginning. After that, there was no way they could avoid punishment.

Nan Luo clicked his tongue. "If they're shameless enough, they might just do that."

Nan Hua: "…"

The servant listened to the two of them but said nothing. He didn't dare to interrupt in fear that he would get into trouble. In any case, there was nothing wrong with him waiting for them to answer.

"Do you want to go there, Hua'er?"

"It's fine to go."

She also wanted to know what kind of game that Concubine Qu would want to play.

Nan Luo still didn't feel like going, but since Nan Hua had said so, he chose to come. The twins quickly changed their clothes then headed to the Western Courtyard. Hou Liang passed them a look but didn't follow too closely since it would be inappropriate for him to follow them too close.

Different from the Southern Courtyard, the Western Courtyard looked far better off. In fact, it was so much better just looking from the material alone. Not only that, it was clear that the Western Courtyard was built after the Southern Courtyard as it didn't look as dilapidated as the Southern Courtyard.

"…This place is much better." Nan Luo was speechless.

Nan Hua didn't really care either way. She was looking at the people in the other quarters there. There were many whom she had only met for the first time and some of them gave her unkind look. It looked like the Nan Family was not really that famous.

"We're here." The servant bowed after leading the twins to the quarter.

The quarter where Concubine Qu and the others live was in the middle. It looked pretty good and tidier than the one at the Southern Courtyard. However, the stifling atmosphere filled the air.

"First Brother, First Sister, you've come." A young boy came forward. He didn't look much younger than Nan Luo and had similar countenance in some parts with Nan Luo. But in overall, he still looked fairly different. In addition, the young boy might give off healthy and well off feeling but he was slightly plump due to eating a lot.

On the other hand, Nan Luo trained every single day. This made him looked a bit taller and stronger compared to that boy.

"Second Brother," Nan Luo greeted. He might not want to acknowledge this person, but he had no other choice right now.

Nan Hua nodded to him but didn't answer anything. Her eyes were scrutinizing him in great detail as this was the first time she had ever met Nan Hou Xiang.

"First Brother, First Sister," Nan Xin quickly greeted too. She smiled sweetly, showing her dimples on her cheek.

"You're also here, Second Sister." Nan Luo looked at Nan Xin and the dark lines on his face grew darker. What did he expect to see when he come here?

"Yes, please come in."

The four of them entered the garden and they saw the big table there. Counting the number of the chair, Nan Hua noticed that it was one more than the number of people in this place.

She sneered internally. Just who came to make Concubine Qu wanted to act as if they were a harmonious family?

"Please take a seat."

"We've prepared enough for you to eat too." Nan Hou Xiang pointed to the table then he sat down first. His eyes were fixated on the meat dishes that Concubine Qu told the servant to prepare for today. ????????????r????????????.＆nbsp;????????????

Because they were in the temple, they couldn't eat a lot of meat due to the lack of material. The servants were tasked to hunt and it was what they did for the past few days. Even then, they only managed to get very few and had to be eaten sparingly.

To cook this much today had made Concubine Qu's heart bled.

"You two are finally here." Concubine Qu looked at the two of them and smiled. "We're all family, why don't we eat together sooner?"

"There's no need." Nan Hua passed a look at Concubine Qu then signaled for her brother to stay silent. Nan Luo was not really in the mood to eat with these three annoying faces in front of him and speaking with Nan Hua was also not possible right now.

"Let's eat."

"Yes!"

Nan Luo didn't really want to eat but his stomach was fairly empty so he simply picked some food near him to eat.

Nan Hua herself also ate slowly and picked some food nearby.

On the other hand, Nan Hou Xiang picked the meat dishes and began to gobble up. His speed was only slightly faster than Nan Xin, who was also trying to get more meat from the dishes.

"Ah Xiang, eat slower." Concubine Qu's face turned a bit red when she saw her son eating so fast. It looked as if the boy had never eaten before.

Nan Hou Xiang nodded but he still didn't stop his hand from picking the food faster.

Nan Luo sneered when he saw this scene. They were trying to act noble but they really couldn't hide the fact that they were just some greedy pigs. He ignored them and focused on his meal.

"Miss Shangguan Die from Shangguan Family is here."
