<h4>Chapter 485 [Bonus chapter]What a Good Pair</h4>


    At this moment, Shangguan Mi knew very well that because her entrance to Long Family Residence was not ideal, it was time for her to pay for what she asked.


    Old Madam Long furrowed her eyebrows when she saw the not so polite reaction from Shangguan Mi. She snorted. "Does your parent not teach you that you''re not supposed to rise your head before there''s order?"


    "This one apologies." Shangguan Mi lowered her head once more.


    However, she felt that her heart was thumping madly while her blood coursed rapidly. She was angry and humiliated, but there was really nothing that she could do.


    Asking Long Qian Xing to return?


    He could simply use the excuse that he had been called for war. What was more important than defending the nation?


    If she really tried to bring him back forcefully, her reputation would be tarnished.


    Her fingers were clenched so tightly into a fist that her nails embedded into her skin. Blood started to seep out and Old Madam Long noticed it. She waved her hand. "Escort Concubine Mi to her quarter."


    "Yes."


    And when Shangguan Mi saw the dpidated quarter she got, her heart turned even colder.


    How was she supposed to survive in this environment?


    …


    Nan Family Residence


    The sun soon set in the horizon as Nan Hua finally had her dinner.


    "Miss, it''s cold outside. How about you rest first?" Xiao Yun asked.


    Nan Hua nced outside and nodded. She pointed at the tray in front of her. "Bring these back, Mu Yan."


    Mu Yan paused for a moment then obeyed, "Yes, Miss."


    Taking the tray, Mu Yan quickly walked out of Nan Hua''s Quarter. She knew the direction to the kitchen, but she purposely turned to the other side as if she had forgotten where she was. It was the direction of Madam Qu''s Quarter.


    Because Madam Qu used to be Nan Shu Cheng''s favorite concubines, her quarter was located right beside Madam Nan''s quarter. Nan Hua knew about it right away because the quarter not far from hers were filled with servants and noise.


    As for the reason why this quarter was left empty.


    It was obviously because this ce was not as good as the ce next door.


    When Mu Yan passed by the location, she could see Nan Shu Cheng''s servants were waiting in front of the door. She quickly passed by the gate and walked to the back, listening to the conversation of the couple inside while slowed down her pace.


    Prang! Prang!


    The sound of porcin broken could be heard even from a distance away.


    It seemed that Nan Shu Cheng was terribly angry to be able to show his emotion so openly in front of his ''beloved'' woman.


    "That damn b*tch! If not because of Father, I''ll never…" Nan Shu Cheng felt like throwing another porcin right now. He had only tolerated what Nan Hua did because of his father. Without his father, he would have never even tried to withstand Nan Hua''s appearance in front of him.


    Yet, at the same time, he knew very well that it would be impossible for him to mistreat his daughter openly like he did many years ago.


    There were too many people who wanted to see him fall and his father no longer protected him so much. He would not bother trying to help him when he was down and his career had been rocky for the past few years.


    He didn''t have any promotion and even his current position was a bit rocky.


    If he was put at lower position, he might be sent to another city to serve there rather than staying in the Capital City. And as an official, Nan Shu Cheng would never be able to get away from his duty like that.


    This was why Nan Shu Cheng couldn''t possibly allow any other scandal to spread.


    "Dear, calm down," Madam Qu coaxed.


    "Be patient in front of her." Nan Shu Cheng red at Madam Qu. "Treat her as if she''s your own daughter or whatever you do with Nan Xin."


    "I know." Madam Qu''s mouth twitched when she thought that she had to always treat Nan Hua well. More than anyone, she wanted to rupture that little girl''s face and destroy her to smithereens. Yet, she couldn''t do that openly.


    She had to treat Nan Hua well.


    At least, on the surface.


    Nan Shu Cheng took a deep breath and smashed thest porcin to the floor. He had already finished smashing everything in his room, which was why he moved to his wife''s room. Looking at the floor filled with broken porcins, he snorted.


    "Clean those up."


    "Yes, Master."


    The servants moved quickly to clean up everything in front of them. They had to make sure that there was not even a single piece that could possibly harm either one of them. Looking at the small pieces, the servants could only endure their annoyance as they worked faster.


    Madam Qu waved her hand, asking her maidservant to prepare tea. She handed it over to Nan Shu Cheng. "Have you calm down? Her quarter is right beside mine, so she might hear your shout."


    "It''s too far for her to hear anything." Nan Shu Cheng waved his hand while taking the tea with his other hand. He snorted and drank the tea slowly, calming his heart and mind in the process. "I can''t even hear anything unless you shout loudly from the door."


    The distance of the building was indeed far from each other. It would be hard for normal people to hear what Nan Shu Cheng and Madam Qu were talking from Nan Hua''s current quarter.


    "That''s good."


    Madam Qu actually hated to give that quarter to Nan Hua. She could remember the time when she had to bear with the fact that Nan Shu Cheng''s first wife was still there. Madam Nan was always looking so gentle and kind, making her feel inferior.


    Even with Nan Shu Cheng''s obvious love struck appearance, Madam Nan was always so calm andposed.


    It was very displeasing to the eyes.


    "How about if we talk about something else?" Madam Qu asked as she rubbed Nan Shu Cheng''s back.


    "Something else?" Nan Shu Cheng looked at Madam Qu with arched eyebrows.


    "Yes, something like this…"


    At this point, Mu Yan was already bypassing the ce. Even though she couldn''t see what they were doing the sound of that activities could be heard even from a distance away.


    She snorted inside her mind.


    ''What a good pair.''


    She kept a straight expression and headed to the kitchen, handing the te and reminded them to cook breakfast because the kitchen was not ready yet.


    The kitchen servants felt like crying once more.


    Even if they had to bear with the pain all day long, they would have to cook until the time Nan Hua had her own personal kitchen.


    It was a miserable fact for all of them.


    After settling everything, Mu Yan returned to Nan Hua''s quarter and reported everything she had seen in a low voice and code. Listening to what Mu Yan said, Nan Hua''s expression didn''t change in the slightest bit.


    She already knew.


    Her martial arts allowed her to hear what they were saying even from a distance away.
