Long Qian Xing looked at his grandmother and felt that his worries for his grandmother back then was really unnecessary.

If his grandmother had known about this…

Shouldn't she know better than anyone why he couldn't have his marriage right now?

Old Madam Long coughed when she saw her grandson looking at her. She waved her hand. "Anyway, I don't want to see you without bringing Hua'er tomorrow."

"I know, Grandmother." Long Qian Xing took a deep breath.

It seemed that he had to coax Nan Hua to pay a visit tomorrow.

Considering that Nan Hua was in the Imperial Palace, it seemed that he had to make excuse to pay a visit to Emperor Yang Zhou. That way, he would be able to see Nan Hua without others suspecting about their relationship. 

Old Madam Long nodded in satisfaction when she saw her grandson agreed. "I miss that little lass. She's more considerate than you."

Long Qian Xing: "…"

He had the feeling that Nan Hua's consideration towards his grandmother was higher than him. It seemed that four to five years ago, his grandmother was at higher position in Nan Hua's heart compared to him.

Rubbing his forehead, Long Qian Xing was determined to find Nan Hua to settle this account soon.

Now that he had gotten closer to Nan Hua, he wouldn't accept being placed lower than his grandmother.

Tsk, who would have thought that the target of his jealousy would turn out to be his family members?

Long Qian Xing felt that he was quite miserable in this matter.

<Long distance away, Nan Family Residence>

At this time, Old Master Nan was also hurrying to Nan Family Residence. He had been staying in the Central Region for a long period of time and hadn't come back for a long time.

If he had to say, he had missed his home a bit.

Just a bit.

After all, why should he miss this empty home?

It was not like his life when he was in Central Region was that bad.

If his adjutants were to hear his words, it was estimated that they would vomit blood. In the Central Region, Old Master Nan would only work three days in a week. For the other days, he would give various reasons such as his health not sufficient or not.

And then they would find him eating heartily in a restaurant nearby.

At this sight, they all felt tired.

Even if they knew that there was indeed not much work, couldn't he put on a pretense that he was going to work?

At the very least, to show that he was still working.

But when Old Master Nan clamored that his health was not good enough, these people simply raised their hands in defeat.

Whatever.

They didn't care what Old Master Nan wanted to do anymore. Anyway, his age was indeed already advanced and suitable for retirement. If not because of his title that could serve as deterrence, it was estimated that he would have long been relieved from his post.

"Old Master, you're back." Steward Tong bowed when he saw Old Master Nan.

"Are there anything worthy of attention in the residence?" Old Master Nan asked casually. He hadn't been home and the residence should be empty. There were only the servants who maintained the order for the time when Old Master Nan came back.

Aside from them…

There shouldn't be anything.

"Yes, Old Master." Steward Tong tried to suppress his smile. "Madam Feng is here to pay a visit to you."

Madam Feng?

Nan Si Qiao?

Old Master Nan's eyes lit up when he heard that his daughter paid a visit to him. Knowing that his daughter has been busy accompanying Feng Ao Si's wife or playing with her third son, he didn't expect that she would come here.

"Hahaha, that's good. I'll go see her."

With that, Old Master Nan rushed inside and saw Nan Si Qiao who hurried out with Feng Ao Qian following behind her. She raised her head and saw her father coming and was excited.

"Father, you're back." Nan Si Qiao smiled brightly.

"I'm back." Old Master Nan smiled back. He glanced at Feng Ao Qian, who had turned 7 years old and looked really adorable.

"Ao Qian, greet your grandfather."

Feng Ao Qian quickly cupped his fist. "Feng Ao Qian greets Grandfather."

"Good grandson." Old Master Nan nodded in satisfaction when he saw Feng Ao Qian's etiquette. It seemed that Nan Si Qiao was really good at educating her children and they were all relatively polite.

Well, Feng Ao Si was an exception.

That brat only knew how to make troubles all the time.

Nan Si Qiao stepped forward and hugged her father. She whispered, "It's good that you're fine, Father."

Looking at her father, Nan Si Qiao knew that he was no longer young. Yet, he was still fighting bravely at the frontline. 

She felt heartache and worry whenever she thought of her family members who were all at the frontline. But because she knew that they were fighting for their homeland, Fei Yang Kingdom and to protect the livelihood, she suppressed this feeling.

Seeing them come back safely, that was all she wanted.

"Don't be sad." Old Master Nan patted Nan Si Qiao's head tenderly. "I'm not fighting at the frontline, so you don't have to worry so much."

"Mhm." Nan Si Qiao nodded and released her father. "I heard that Ao Kuai is also back?"

"Ah yeah. He should be back soon. Do you want to wait for him?" Old Master Nan knew that Feng Ao Kuai was going to go through some formalities first before going back, so he come back earlier.

"Yeah, I haven't seen him in a while too." Nan Si Qiao also missed her second son.

"Ok."

"I have asked the kitchen to prepare food for you, Father." 

"Hahaha, then I'll go to eat first." Old Master Nan laughed and walked to his courtyard. He didn't want to disturb his daughter meeting with his grandson.
