Chapter 138 - [Bonus ]This Is My Plan, Will You Follow?

How stupid.

It was very clear that he was disparaging the other party and yet, Shangguan Yi was treating it as if the excuse was to help him out. He, Nan Luo, was not such a kind man to the point of helping someone who had harmed him in the past!

Did he really think that Nan Luo was a saint?

If he did, then Shangguan Yi was truly stupid. Nan Luo would not be as kind as to remind him of this fact either, though.

"I see," Minister Xiang's tone was cold.

Shangguan Yi was stunned. Did he say anything wrong? He couldn't find anything wrong with what Nan Luo said to help him out just now. In fact, it was a flawless excuse that he might not be able to find anywhere else.

What?

Nan Luo chuckled. "Please excuse me, Minister Xiang." He turned to look at Long Qian Xing. "If you don't mind, I would like to talk with Young Commander Long over a spar."

Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows. "First Young Master Nan sounds confident. Have you increase your skill?"

"You'll only know when you try it."

"In that case, let's move over to the side."

Minister Xiang laughed faintly when he saw the two of them. While it looked like Nan Luo was itching to beat up Long Qian Xing, he could only see it as the sight of a young child who was eager to learn more from the young commander.

After all, Nan Luo was far younger compared to Long Qian Xing.

"Ready?"

"Anytime!"

Swish! Tak! Tak! Tak!

The sound of wooden swords hitting could be heard from the side. Minister Xiang was watching calmly while Shangguan Yi's face darkened. He could notice that he was being ignored by the others in the hall.

After a few more seconds, he couldn't hold it any longer and turned around. There was nothing he could achieve by staying here anymore.

Hmph!

Drap! Drap! Drap!

"What an impatient young man." Minister Xiang shook his head. His impression of Shangguan Yi had plummeted once more.

"Ah!"

"Watch where you're going!" Shangguan Yi yelled. He was about to lash out more but he noticed that the person in front of him wore the clothes for officials. He could only swallow the words he was about to say and turned around once more, no longer caring for the things here.

Nothing seemed to turn right whenever he bumped with either Long Qian Xing nor that annoying brat Nan Luo!

He hated this so much!

"Are you alright?"

"Minister Xiang, I'm fine," The official who nearly fall, Zhang Dan Shui, replied with a smile. "I have already obtained all the documents necessary. You may go to the second floor with this permission, Minister Xiang."

"You did good. Wait for me here."

"Yes, Minister Xiang."

Zhang Dan Shui looked at the other officials behind Minister Xiang but didn't say anything. The other officials were at higher ranks than him with their leader today being Minister Xiang. Because of his low rank as an official, he couldn't get the permission for himself to enter the second floor.

Minister Xiang naturally knew that, so he patted Zhang Dan Shui's shoulder. "There'll be a time when you can enter the second floor."

"Thank you for your kind words, Minister Xiang." Zhang Dan Shui forced out a smile.

The minister behind Minister Xiang snickered. From his similar countenance to Zhang Dan Shui, it was not hard to recognize him as Zhang Dan Shang, Zhang Dan Shui's younger brother.

He looked at Zhang Dan Shui condemningly. He silently mouthed out, 'You'll never be able to obtain it in your entire lifetime.'

Zhang Dan Shui's eyes turned cold as he clenched his fist. However, the smile on his face didn't change in the slightest bit. He had already faced so many mocking in his entire lifetime that he had long gotten used to it. There was nothing wrong with it at all in his opinion since he just had to endure until there was a chance for him to get away from all of this.

Minister Xiang walked away with the other officials behind him. There were several of them and neither one of them have good relationship with Zhang Dan Shui.

*Sigh*

As he watched them went away, Zhang Dan Shui then come back to his senses. It was then he realized that he was not alone in this place. There were several other people in front of him. He quickly recognized Nan Luo and Long Qian Xing since they were famous.

It was not like he knew everyone's face, but some people were really hard not to recognize. Besides, Nan Luo was quite similar to Nan Shu Cheng while Long Qian Xing was already famous from the time when he was in the academy back then. Though, at that time, Long Qian Xing was a young junior.

He then turned his eyes to look at Nan Hua and Xiao Yan. Their faces were unfamiliar but the dark obsidian eyes of Nan Hua looked very familiar to him.

"I'll talk to him for a moment," Nan Hua informed Xiao Yan.

"Huh?" Xiao Yan was stunned.

Nan Hua didn't wait for Xiao Yan to understand what she was saying as she walked towards Zhang Dan Shui. She called out, "Zhang Dan Shui."

This voice….

Zhang Dan Shui looked at Nan Hua and felt utterly speechless. Just as he was still thinking how he could possibly find a method to contact Nan Hua, the girl herself appeared right in front of him as if there was nothing wrong.

Should he fell glad?

"Do you still remember?" Nan Hua asked calmly.

Zhang Dan Shui nodded. He noticed that Nan Hua was speaking in an extremely low voice while she looked at him with some kind of hesitation in her body gesture. It seemed as if she was a servant who didn't know whether it was fine for her to approach him or not.

Her acting was so excellent.
