Chapter 22: Chase Away Hong Zhuang!
Chapter 22: Chase Away Hong Zhuang!
"Since you're awake, let's go." Xu Nan said suddenly.
Xu Yaozhong opened his eyes and saw his son's resolute face.
It was expressionless! It was as if he was looking at a stranger! Xu Yaozhong's lips trembled.
"Little...Little Nan..."
"Let's go.Your injuries are almost healed.You are not welcome here.'’
"Little Nan, I know I..."
"I don't want to hear it."
Xu Nan shook his head calmly.
"Everything is in the past.Let's go.Little Bei will no longer be a burden to you."
Xu Yaozhong felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
After a long silence, he nodded heavily.
"I've let you two down.I'm leaving."
Xu Yaozhong stood up and walked away with heavy steps.
At this moment, Xu Yaozhong was filled with endless loneliness and sorrow.
Xu Nan could sense this but still couldn't forgive him that easily.
People had to pay the price for their wrongdoings, no matter who it was.
Outside the door, Hong Zhuang had sent food.
Seeing Xu Yaozhong walkout, she turned sideways and lowered her head, not saying a word.
Xu Yaozhong walked past Hong Zhuang and stopped suddenly.
He looked at Hong Zhuang sincerely, "Miss."
Hong Zhuang looked up at Xu Yaozhong.
From Xu Yaozhong's tired face, she saw a resemblance to that of pleading.
She was stunned.
"You...Are you Little Nan's girlfriend?"
Xu Yaozhong asked.
Hong Zhuang pursed her lips and shook her head.
"I am not worthy of him."
Xu Yaozhong said bitterly, "Can...can I ask you something?"
"Please speak freely."
"Take good...take good care of him...He...has never been loved by his father since he was young...'’ Hong Zhuang's heart trembled.
"Please..."
Xu Yaozhong left.
Before he left the hospital, Xu Yaozhong heard someone Say that the Three Gates were gone.
He was shocked and went up to strike up a conversation.
"Brother, what did you just say? Three Gates?"
"Brother, you still don't know?"
The middle-aged man in sick clothes said excitedly, "Three Gates is gone! Liu Sanchong, that villain, is dead! He paid for his with his life..."
After a while, Xu Yaozhong knew what had happened.
He turned back in a daze.
"The Three Gates were destroyed by a mysterious force...Is it Little Nan? No, it couldn't be."
Xu Yaozhong was shocked by his own thoughts and then laughed at himself.
How could Little Nan have such great abilities? Even if he was a soldier in the Nanjiang army, he still could not possess such ability.
The power behind Liu Sanchong was not something that a soldier of the Nanjiang army could afford to offend.
Then, Xu Yaozhong rejoiced.
Luckily, Liu Sanchong had died, or else his son would definitely had been in danger.
‘'Good...good...Sighing deeply, Xu Yaozhong raised his head and walked out of the hospital.
He looked in the direction of the Xu family's ancestral residence with endless hatred.
"Zhou Yugiong, I will avenge Zitong! Just you wait!"
He didn't tell Xu Nan what Zhou Yuqiong said because Xu Yaozhong didn't want Xu Nan to take the risk again Offending Liu Sanchong was bad enough, but luckily Liu Sanchong died conveniently.
However, he might not be so lucky next time.
Zhou Yugiong, that poisonous woman, was also very tenacious.
Exacting revenge was not going to be an easy matter, and it was not something that could be solved by fighting.
Xu Yaozhong wanted his children to live a relaxed and happy life.
He wanted to bear the deep hatred of the Blood Sea on himself.
He wanted to use the rest of his life fighting against Zhou Yugqiong! In the ward, Xu Nan threw the food on the ground heavily.
"Hong Zhuang! Do you still remember your identity?"
Xu Nan said in a furious rage, Hong Zhuang knelt on one knee, her eyes red.
"Subordinate Hong Zhuang, one of the twelve generals of the Lifeless Army, the head of Nanjiang intelligence system!"
Xu Nan's eyes were cold.
"You still know that you are one of the twelve generals of the Lifeless Army? You also know that you are the head of Nanjiang intelligence system? What are you doing now? Are you here to be my nanny? Are the soldiers of the Third Army not needing you? Are the intelligence system not in bad need of you?"
Lei Cang and the others had already returned to the Nanjiang.
The blame for them leaving the Nanjiang was shouldered by Xu Nan, and with his last resort of igniting the Wolf Smoke, no one could blame the Nanjiang Military Advisor and the twelve generals.
After all, the vast Nanjiang could not be without their army, and it was a critical moment for the enemy country to surrender and negotiate.
If no one was there, it would be disastrous.
Yi Tianlong took Xu Nan's place and went to the Nanjiang to take charge.
When the matter was over, he would wait for the new Nanjiang General to take over.
Hong Zhuang said bitterly, "Marshal Nan..."
"Don't call me Marshal Nan!"
Xu Nan was unprecedentedly furious, "Get lost! Now, immediately, get back to the Nanjiang!"
Hong Zhuang cried in pain, got up, and raised her hand to salute, "Yes! Hong Zhuang will get lost now! Marshal Nan, take care!"
The woman more powerful than men, the tearful Hong Zhuang turned and strode away.
After leaving the ward, she gently closed the door.
Xu Nan sat on the chair and let out a breath of turbid air, a bitter expression on his face.
After burning the smoke, he was no longer the commander of Nanjiang.
Even the king could not appoint him again.
There was a knock on the door.
Then the door opened and a nurse came in with a basin of hot water.
She asked, "Is it convenient for me to clean the patient's body now?"
"Yes."
Xu Nan cleaned up the mess on the ground with a broom, left the ward, and went downstairs to buy something to eat.
In the hall on the first floor, people were coming and going.
Xu Nan saw that there were many people around the door.
There was a little girl crying.
As Xu Nan walked by and took a look.
There seemed to be an old woman lying on the ground.Her hair was white and she was also plain.
Her wrinkled old face was slightly green as she seemed to be unconscious.
