Meanwhile...
Not far from Nan Manor, Feng Ruqing stopped in her tracks on top of a hill as she looked at the city ahead.
Xia Xia stood next to Feng Ruqing obediently. Her small face was so cute, and her eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky.
On her other side was a man as handsome as an immortal. His face was cold, and he seemed to be in deep thought.
âNan Xian, weâve almost reached Nan City.â Feng Ruqing turned to Nan Xian. âBut, we have heard a lot of news on the way there. It is said that the old master of the Nan family is dying. So I have to make some preparations before going there.â
âAlright...â
Nan Xian smiled and looked at Feng Ruqing gently.
However, his gentle eyes suddenly turned cold as he turned to look at Nan City...
***
Nan Manor.
The roomâs door was violently pushed open with a bang.
Suyi raised her head, and her face darkened as she saw a young girl rushing toward her.
Nan Luo looked panicked as she ran toward Suyi with teary eyes.
âAunt Suyi, Grandfather is dying...â
The cup in Suyiâs hand slid and fell to the floor. She stood up from the chair, trembling.
âWhat did you just say?â
âFather is dying?â
At this moment, Suyiâs heart was about to stop beating, and she rushed toward the door in a panic and with impatience.
The white phoenix quickly followed after her. Its eyes suddenly turned cold; no one knew what was on its mind...n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Nan Manorâs backyard was already filled with many people.
All the Nan family members had arrived. They were here to pay their last respect to IOld Master Nan.
They saw a woman running from a short distance away.
The woman was dressed in white; she looked as gentle and elegant as she was back then.
Wei Rong was jealous of Suyiâs face that did not show any signs of age. She snorted and withdrew her gaze, never looking at Suyi again.
However...
The moment Suyi was about to rush into the courtyard, a group of guards suddenly stepped forward and blocked her way.
She quickly drew her long sword and slashed all guards who were trying to stop her.
The guards were no match for Suyi, and under the fierce wind, their bodies flew away and landed in the courtyard messily.
However, when the guards fell to the ground, the Nan family elders stepped forward to block Suyi, too.
âGet lost!â Suyi gripped the long sword in her hand tightly. Her face was cold and expressionless.
An elder pointed at Nan Suyi and said, âNan Suyi, donât you think youâve pissed off the old man enough back then? Now that he only has his last breath left, do you want to anger him to death?â
The crowd looked at Suyi and sneered. âIf it were not for the fact that Master Nan Fang harbors feelings for Suyi, this disobedient and unfilial daughter would never have been allowed to step into Nan Manor again! She has made the old master ill!â
âI told you to get lost!â
Suyi was trembling. What Nan Luo had said just now echoed in her mind...
