Mu Yan looked in Nan Huas direction with worry. Are you alright, Miss?
Mhm.
Nan Hua said nothing else and simply entered the residence. She looked at the sky and thought that this world was hopelessly flawed. Grudges from older generations were carried to the younger generation and even unborn children were not spared from their schemes.
Closing her eyes, Nan Hua felt as if she had returned to that place once more. A place where humans life was as cheap as grass and without their usefulness, their only outcome was only death.
So if they wanted to live, they just had to prove that they were useful.
Nan Hua opened her eyes and looked at the residence in front of her. In that place, she was hopeless for she was unable to get away. The only option for her to get out of that organization was only if she died.
But this world is different.
She had built her power little by little without revealing it to the world. When they finally realized who actually held the reins, it would be too late.
No one would be dictating her life anymore.
The four servants were standing not far from Nan Hua and looked at her small back as Nan Hua entered the building. For some reason, they felt that the aura around Nan Hua had changed slightly. All this time, they knew that Nan Hua was a very dangerous person and those who dared to mess with her would eventually suffer themselves.
But they rarely felt that way when they saw Nan Hua on her daily basis.
She looked as normal as any other young noble young girl could be. It was to the point that ordinary people wouldnt be able to differentiate her from other noble ladies and point out any of the differences.
But that aura just now
It was filled with oppression without any trace of concealment.
Those who sensed it would feel fear. They would subconsciously felt that they were unworthy to stand before her. At the same time, they would be worried that if they made any mistake, they wouldnt be able to keep their lives.
Did something happen when shes visiting the Mu Family Residence? Chu Yan asked. The ones who followed Nan Hua were Xiao Yun and Mu Yan. She and Ran both stayed in the residence because it would be inappropriate for them all to follow Nan Hua without leaving anyone here.
Xiao Yun shook her head. Fourth Miss Mu is very nice to Young Miss and they look so good together.
They look like real sisters, Mu Yan added from the side.
Chu Yue tilted her head as she watched Nan Hua entered the building. That aura only appeared for a moment, but she had the feelings that once Nan Hua was no longer restrained by this identity of hers that aura might be something they would see almost every single day.
Lets serve Miss well.
Thats for sure.
The four of them didnt dare to discuss this anymore and did their duties.
That days passed quietly.
Very quiet in fact.
Nan Shu Cheng didnt throw any tantrum or showed his anger, but he locked Madam Qu and even didnt allow her to get out of her quarter. This showed others that Nan Shu Cheng was terribly angry at Madam Qu for making him lose his child even before the child was born.
And the very next day, Nan Shu Cheng came to Madam Qus Quarter and dismissed a lot of her servants. This caused a lot of commotion that caused everyones attention to land on that very quarter.
Nan Huas quarter was located not far from Madam Qus quarter, so she could hear this very well.
Miss, Xiao Yun called. She looked at her Miss worriedly. Would you like to take a look?
Mhm. Nan Hua stood up. Since Madam Qu dared to challenge Nan Shu Chengs patience over and over again, it was only normal for her to taste the result of playing with fire. Nan Shu Cheng was not a person someone like Madam Qu could possibly offend in her entire life.
That was, if she treasured her life.
At the courtyard, Madam Qu was screaming towards Nan Shu Cheng. She couldnt see her servants whom she had cultivated for a long time or bought over to be dismissed so easily like that.
You cant do this to me! I need the servants!
And create more trouble? Nan Shu Chengs tone was exceedingly cold. His eyes were looking at the woman who was screaming while being held down by two guards without any so called feelings. Are you only going to be happy after you kill my child?
I didnt do it! Madam Qu screamed.
You didnt? Nan Shu Cheng chuckled, his tone was growing colder and colder. The servants are saying otherwise.
Madam Qus heart chilled when she saw Nan Shu Chengs appearance. He rarely got truly angry like this. When he was annoyed and threw tantrum, it was a rather common sight for Madam Qu.
But for him to stay quiet and instead being ruthless
This was rare.
The last time this happened was when Madam Nan left the residence with her two children. At that time, Nan Shu Cheng was so angry that he wanted to destroy everything. But his fathers mere presence was more than enough to stop him.
He couldnt do anything to his father.
Why cant you trust me? Madam Qu yelled, tears streamed out on the corner of her eyes.
Why should I trust you? Nan Shu Cheng looked at Madam Qu and waved his hand. Send them back to Household Department and let them do whatever they want. These servants didnt serve their Master well.
Yes, Master.
No! Dont do that!
Nan Shu Cheng looked at Madam Qu and turned around. These servants are more valuable for you than my children, isnt it?
Madam Qu was stunned. By the time she came to her senses, Nan Shu Cheng had already walked away and the servants were dragged away. The maidservants finally released her as her body slumped to the ground.
Plop!
