Chapter 175: [Bonus ]Nan Luo’s Promise

Scritch! Scricth!

The sound of knife and wood kept on filling the area. The other adults were amused when they watched the brats learning so seriously about wood carving.

Crack!

Feng Ao Si looked at the broken piece of wood in front of him and felt a bit annoyed. This was already the third time he broke the wood. "Why is it so hard just to carve it?"

"You need to control your strength well when you carve." Long Qian Xing was also very patience. Even his soldiers were a bit astonished when they saw Long Qian Xing didn't mind helping the brats to practice. They started to think that their commander actually needed to have more friends his age.

That way, they would not be subjected to harsh training again….

"It's so difficult…" Feng Ao Si's face darkened considerably. He really wished to know just who in the world invented this carving method.

Feng Ao Kuai finally finished. He chose a rather simple design of an amulet with the yin and yang's engraving. The circle was not that smooth, but it was pretty good. He inspected it for a while before showing it to Long Qian Xing.

"Young Commander Long, is this correct?"

"Yes, you just need to lightly cut the protruding part so that it'll be smooth. You can also use other equipment such as sandpaper to polish it." Long Qian Xing only didn't show it because he didn't bring his equipment with him.

Feng Ao Kuai then looked at the small rabbit in Nan Hua's hand. It was smooth even though Long Qian Xing only used a small knife to make it. Somehow, he began to feel that his skills were terribly poor.

Beside him, Nan Luo was not any better. His carving, that was originally meant to form a majestic lion, only ended up as something strange. He wanted to cry when he saw his carving ended up so strangely.

It was so unsightly.

"Brother Long, Luo, Cousin Ao Kuai, Cousin Ao Si, it's already late. I'll return to carriage." Nan Hua had already finished eating and after watching her brother and cousins, she wanted to rest.

"I'll escort you back." Feng Ao Kuai stood up almost immediately.

"It's time to rest for me too." Feng Ao Si also followed suit.

Nan Luo looked at the lump in his hand and his face darkened slightly. "I'll go to rest after a bit more. Rest well, Hua'er."

"Mhm."

Long Qian Xing nodded at Nan Hua and watched as the young girl left with her two cousins. Even though Feng Ao Si was not as passionate as the other two, he could faintly see that he was also trying to protect Nan Hua so tightly.

It was as if Nan Hua was the greatest treasure in the world and they would not tolerate even the slightest blemish on her.

"I still can't do it…" Nan Luo felt like giving up when he saw the 'lion' carving only ended up worse.

Long Qian Xing resisted the urge to laugh out loud. "You've only started to learn it. If you really want to, you might want to start from carving simple shapes before making a complicated one like this."

"That will take too much time." Nan Luo wanted to give Nan Hua a present with a carving. But if he had to spend hours just to practice it, he knew for sure that it would just be a waste of time since he would have to dedicate his time. His grandfather would spank him if he dared to do that.

"You can do it in your free time. It's quite a good activity to pass time." Long Qian Xing smiled.

"I see."

Seeing Nan Luo was still trying to mend that 'lion,' Long Qian Xing decided to try striking a conversation with the young boy. "What do you plan to do when you manage to create a good carving?"

"I'm planning to give it to Hua'er. She looks quite happy when she receives one from you," Nan Luo answered bluntly. He might not be able to see much difference in Nan Hua's expression, but he could guess that she was in good mood when she got the carving.

Even if it was only a little bit, he wished that he would be able to make Nan Hua happy.

Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. "You care so much for your little sister."

"I have failed once to protect her because of my stupidity, so I want to make her happy this time." Nan Luo was still focusing on the carving before him. "I don't want her to suffer again…"

It was then Nan Luo realized that he had misspoke. He had thought about this countless times in his head but never dared to speak it out. After all, his father had already cleaned up the mess from that time and shut everyone's mouth.

Even if there were some rumors left, no one dared to run their mouth. Nan Shu Cheng's position in the palace was quite high. Not to mention, no one would want to be put in the bad position in front of Nan Family.

Thus, the rumors died down.

It was also thanks to this fact that Nan Hua could live normally and not many people actually knew this left in the Capital City. Most of the servants who knew were sent out to the villages nearby so that no one would spread the rumors.

Nan Luo raised his head then looked at Long Qian Xing. He frowned. "Forget what I said."

"It's fine."

Seeing the nonchalant expression on Long Qian Xing, Nan Luo felt a bit annoyed and guilty to Nan Hua. He never had any intention to blurt it out. While it was true that he had been mulling about this matter, it was still a mishap for him to blurt it out to outsider.

"Don't blame Hua'er…. And if you dare to treat her badly in the future, I'll not hesitate to kill you even if you're going to be the great general or whatever." Nan Luo felt frustrated and stood up to leave. He felt that whatever he was going to say would just end up exposing more of his thoughts.

Long Qian Xing watched the youth's back and rubbed his chin lightly. He stood up and dusted his clothes. To think that there was something interesting that happened in the Capital City during the time he was away at the frontline.

While he obtained the former Long Qian Xing's memory, there were some matters that was left unexplained.

One of them was obviously about his fiancée. After all, the original Long Qian Xing didn't have much interaction with his fiancée and didn't even know much about her. He did hear some rumors about Nan Hua when he walked around just now, thus he was a bit curious.

How come the villagers knew more than the people in the Capital City?

"Find out more about the incident in Nan Family two years ago." Long Qian Xing stood still for a moment then turned around. "Give me report when I'm back in the Capital City."

There was no answer but the sound of the wind from nearby told Long Qian Xing that his men had started to work.
