Chapter 744: Fire
"You're saying that he visited that b*tch quarter?" Madam Qu's eyes widened when she listened to the servants' words. After so many years, he remembered that b*tch again and decided to pay a visit to her quarter?
Didn't he hate her so much?
At this thought, Madam Qu's body trembled. She looked at the servants around her with hatred. "You should have stopped him!"
The servants were all terrified as they dropped to the ground and begged for mercy. Right now, they all only thought about how they could get away from the angry Madam Qu. They couldn't possibly do anything when Nan Shu Cheng went to visit that quarter.
What right did they have?
Madam Qu knew that, but she was so angry when she thought of how Nan Shu Cheng still visited that b*tch quarter. Back then, she took a lot of efforts in order to be able to make Nan Shu Cheng paid more attention to her and no longer cared about that woman.
Since Madam Nan often quarreled with Nan Shu Cheng over many things, Madam Qu always made sure that she would be the save and peaceful place for Nan Shu Cheng to stay. That way, she managed to pull him over and made him care for her and only her.
Prang!
"Don't let that b*tch get away!"
"Madam, there's another problem. Concubine Mu is checking the past years' finance."
Madam Qu, who was about to explode in anger, paused in her steps. She furrowed her eyebrows before her eyes shot towards the servants. "Why don't you stop her?"
"This.. this servant..."
"Useless!"
More and more porcelains were broken as Madam Qu was in rage. The servants around her couldn't really do anything as they watched Madam Qu smashed those precious porcelains.
They were having complicated feelings.
More and more trouble seemed to spurt out.
Nan Hua looked at the stack of scrolls on the table. "It'll be better if you keep those and carry them all the time, Concubine Mu."
"Yes?" Concubine Mu was stunned by Nan Hua's words. But thinking of how much Madam Qu would want to destroy the evidences, she chuckled as a cold glint appeared inside her eyes.
She was not an ambitious person and chose to stay low because she didn't want to get involved in those matter. But seeing hos the funds were transferred by Madam Qu covertly like this, she didn't feel that good.
Since Madam Qu was no longer in power, wouldn't it be better for her to settle this matter too?
"Have you known about this and how this will develop?" Concubine Mu asked in a low voice.
"How is it possible?"
Nan Hua might be able to guess some things, but she was not omnipotent. How things actually developed would not always be the same. All she could do was to direct the trajectory of things that occurred so that it would be the same as how she wanted it to be.
But how people did things, she couldn't control them. They could decide what they wanted to do. All she did was simply to influence them to be able to act in accordance to how she wanted it to be.
But it would not always be the same as what she planned.
Concubine Mu chuckled lightly and looked at the pile in front of her. She waved her hand to her servant. "Inform Master, I would like to see him."
"Yes, Mistress."
"So..."
Before Concubine Mu could finish speaking, there was shouting coming from the other direction.
"FIRE!"
"THERE'S FIRE!"
"Water!"
"Where's water?"
