Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 2196: Act



With that, Long Ao Ming left the Imperial Palace.

Prime Minister Lan looked at Long Ao Ming's back, somewhat reminded to the time when they were younger and fought on the battlefield together.

Now, he would continue to stay in this Imperial Palace for other matters while Long Ao Ming continued to strive further and further away on the frontline.

Their life path differs from each other.

But both of them were still working for Fei Yang Kingdom.

Prime Minister Lan smiled and then turned around, going back to do his own duties.

...

<Nan Family Residence, Nan Hua's side>

Nan Hua told many stories to Mu Fei Jiu and she herself also shared some other stories that she hadn't said to Nan Hua before. There were many things that happened, but some others were nothing more than gossips.

Through Mu Fei Jiu, Nan Hua also understood clearly the women in the Liang City and their husband's position.

Even though Mu Fei Jiu looked like she was playing around with these women, she was also studying their position and attitude. If they were supportive to her husband, then she would be more wiling to 'show closeness.' If they were against her husband, then she would make things difficult for them covertly.

Her innocent appearance that she showed on the surface was more than enough to trick many people.

"You seem to be having fun," Nan Hua said with a faint smile.

"It's fun." Mu Fei Jiu giggled. "Besides, we're all only gathering together for the sake of interest. Whatever feelings that they said, it's nothing more than lips service."

This was the life of the noble women.

Even though they were all praising each other, it was clear that they were trying their best to hide what they actually thought in their heart.

Having a good relationship?

What a joke.

Most of them were only plastic sisters with no real good relationship whatsoever. They were only showing good appearance on the surface because it was beneficial for them.

Mu Fei Jiu knew this.

So she acted along.

Anyway, she didn't really expect to meet with someone whom she could truly trust among those women.

It was hard to trust others.

After all, there were many cases where these noble women were only getting close to others for the sake of themselves.

Humans are selfish.

To be able to truly met someone who cared for others would be a great luck. It was something that Mu Fei Jiu didn't really expect. Even for Nan Hua, she knew very well hat she didn't trust Nan Hua with her entire heart.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

She only knew that Nan Hua didn't really need anything from her, so she didn't have to worry so much about some things.

"Indeed," Nan Hua said calmly.

Compared to Mu Fei Jiu, Nan Hua had seen much more than her. She knew very well that there were many people who would not like her but they would not dare to speak about it on the surface.

Rather, they would try their best to make sure that no one knew about this matter.

Because they knew very well that even if they dislike others, they wouldn't be able to do anything with their limited ability and power. Not to mention, their position was not really stable and it was not worth it to trade it with everything just because of their emotions.

And this was not only in the noble society.

In many other places, there were also many other people who were competing like them. It was just more apparent between these noble ladies here.

"And you might need to face some people like them." Mu Fei Jiu sighed. "I wish that they can try not to show their intention so clearly like that. Their acting is really bad."

For Mu Fei Jiu, who had basically acted almost all her entire life, their acting could be easily seen through. After all, she herself was able to fool others and naturally also notice it when others were acting in front of her.

Her only evaluation of these people were that they have poor acting skills.

Nan Hua raised her hand and patted Mu Fei Jiu's head. "Not everyone had to act for their entire life, Jiu'er."

Acting in front of her father, acting in front of her other family members, acting in front of other people... It could be said that Mu Fei Jiu acted almost her entire life. Even if she showed her true self in front of her father, but she would still act to make sure he would not worry for

her.

Because she could not tell him that his daughter is actually a scheming woman who could kill others without battling her eyelids.

Perhaps, Mu Fei Jiu's father had some hunch.

But the two father and daughter had never truly talked about this and in the end, they simply maintained the status quo.

In this way, the interaction between the father and daughter was very harmonious.

Mu Fei Jiu didn't hide much in front of Nan Hua.

As for in front of Feng Ao Kuai...

Nan Hua didn't know.

The relationship between Feng Ao Kuai and Mu Fei Jiu were essentially their own business. Even if Nan Hua is Feng Ao Kuai's cousin, she had no interest to pry into their relationship and knew more about this.

Perhaps, a gossip could be done, but it was definitely not a necessity.

And the feeling of having to act for their entire life... was not exactly good. It made them not know which one was their real self, which was something that Nan Hua had experienced

herself.

It was good that Mu Fei Jiu still knew some of her real self and did what she want to do.

Because it wouldn't have been easy for her to keep her personality all these years with how things have been presented in front of her so far.

"I know. Everyone have a different life," Mu Fei Jiu replied calmly.
