Chapter 1775: No Harm to Her? II
‘Aunt Suyi, I’m sorry…’
Nan Luo slowly closed her eyes… A pair of eyes that were filled with guilt.
***
The white phoenix sat in the room alone. It frowned as it stared at the portrait in its hand. “How come Suyi has the portraits of Nan Xian and Qing’er in her room?”
“I took it from Tang Yin.”
The white phoenix was startled when Suyi suddenly appeared behind it. It quickly hid the portrait under its b.u.t.tocks.
It was a family portrait.
A snow-white, elegant Suyi with Feng Ruqing in her fiery red dress and Nan Xian, who was as handsome as an immortal…
However, it felt like the family portrait was not complete because… it was not in it.
It was just wondering how to add itself to it and did not expect Suyi to appear suddenly.
“Don’t waste your time here. We have to find my father and then leave as soon as possible. This Nan family…” Suyi paused and sneered, “This is not a safe place to stay for the time being.”
Suyi left again after saying these words.
The white phoenix quickly stood up and followed Suyi. The portrait that it put under its b.u.t.tocks just now had dropped to the ground as it walked away…
Not long after they had left the room, a knock sounded from outside the room, and the door was quietly pushed open. A young girl with a pale face walked in quietly like a thief.
“Aunt, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to harm you…”
Her heart was filled with guilt, but… She had to do it for herself.
She only wanted to be selfish this one time…
Nan Luo cautiously walked toward the table, afraid that Suyi would suddenly appear again.
However…
She did not know what she had stepped on that made a creaking sound. She panicked and hurriedly took a few steps back, looking at the ground.
She then saw a portrait on the ground.
Nan Luo picked up the portrait, and in an instant, her hand trembled.
The handsome man was smiling gently in the portrait… That smile was warm and made people feel like it was spring.
Bang!
The room’s door was violently pushed open. Nan Luo was startled, and the portrait in her fell to the ground.
She turned around and saw a fierce and vicious phoenix, glaring at her fiercely…
***
Just now, after the white phoenix had walked away, it suddenly remembered that it had not put the portrait back. However, the white phoenix did not expect to see Nan Luo in the room, staring at the portrait.
Nan Luo bit her lip and looked at the white phoenix, trembling. “I… I wanted to meet my aunt, but I accidentally found this portrait on the ground. Don’t worry. I will not tell my father about this. The man in the portrait… He’s her son, right?”
Suyi was still young when she left, and now more than twenty years had pa.s.sed. If she had a child, he should indeed be this old.
Moreover…
When she was in Wu Shang City back then, she once heard that Tian Ya’s grandson-in-law… His name was Nan Xian.
The same surname and a relatively similar face, with the same temperament… And the portrait…
She did not believe there was such a coincidence.
“Shut up!” the white phoenix stepped forward, s.n.a.t.c.hed the portrait, and said angrily. “Is this how the Nan family brought you up? You have no manners, entering other people’s rooms without permission!”
