Chapter 726: Prelude

Chapter 726: PreludeMu Yan looked in Nan Hua's direction with worry. "Are you alright, Miss?"

"Mhm."

Nan Hua said nothing else and simply entered the residence. She looked at the sky and thought that this world was hopelessly flawed. Grudges from older generations were carried to the younger generation and even unborn children were not spared from their schemes.

Closing her eyes, Nan Hua felt as if she had returned to that place once more. A place where human's life was as cheap as grass and without their usefulness, their only outcome was only death.

So if they wanted to live, they just had to prove that they were useful.

Nan Hua opened her eyes and looked at the residence in front of her. In that place, she was hopeless for she was unable to get away. The only option for her to get out of that organization was only if she died.

But this world is different.

She had built her power little by little without revealing it to the world. When they finally realized who actually held the reins, it would be too late.

No one would be dictating her life anymore.

The four servants were standing not far from Nan Hua and looked at her small back as Nan Hua entered the building. For some reason, they felt that the aura around Nan Hua had changed slightly. All this time, they knew that Nan Hua was a very dangerous person and those who dared to mess with her would eventually suffer themselves.

But they rarely felt that way when they saw Nan Hua on her daily basis.

She looked as normal as any other young noble young girl could be. It was to the point that ordinary people wouldn't be able to differentiate her from other noble ladies and point out any of the differences.

But that aura just now...

It was filled with oppression without any trace of concealment. for new novels

Those who sensed it would feel fear. They would subconsciously felt that they were unworthy to stand before her. At the same time, they would be worried that if they made any mistake, they wouldn't be able to keep their lives.

"You can't do this to me! I need the servants!"

"And create more trouble?" Nan Shu Cheng's tone was exceedingly cold. His eyes were looking at the woman who was screaming while being held down by two guards without any so called feelings. "Are you only going to be happy after you kill my child?"

"I didn't do it!" Madam Qu screamed.

"You didn't?" Nan Shu Cheng chuckled, his tone was growing colder and colder. "The servants are saying otherwise."

Madam Qu's heart chilled when she saw Nan Shu Cheng's appearance. He rarely got truly angry like this. When he was annoyed and threw tantrum, it was a rather common sight for Madam Qu.

But for him to stay quiet and instead being ruthless...

This was rare.

The last time this happened was when Madam Nan left the residence with her two children. At that time, Nan Shu Cheng was so angry that he wanted to destroy everything. But his father's mere presence was more than enough to stop him.

He couldn't do anything to his father.

"Why can't you trust me?" Madam Qu yelled, tears streamed out on the corner of her eyes.

"Why should I trust you?" Nan Shu Cheng looked at Madam Qu and waved his hand. "Send them back to Household Department and let them do whatever they want. These servants didn't serve their Master well."

"Yes, Master."

"No! Don't do that!"

Nan Shu Cheng looked at Madam Qu and turned around. "These servants are more valuable for you than my children, isn't it?"

Madam Qu was stunned. By the time she came to her senses, Nan Shu Cheng had already walked away and the servants were dragged away. The maidservants finally released her as her body slumped to the ground.

Plop!
