Chapter 164: Meeting the Officials

Xiao Yun was stunned when she heard the question Nan Hua asked. Dazedly, she looked up and saw Nan Hua was still looking at her with the same expressionless expression as before.

By now, she could no longer remember much of the image when Nan Hua smiled brightly like a child. The image she showed was nothing more than one that showed her indifferent expression that hid everything that she might feel.

"Sorry, Miss… I always fail to protect you." Xiao Yun's body trembled slightly as tears threatened to pour out. She looked away, no long wanting to look at Nan Hua.

"You don't have to apologize to me."

Because the one whom she should apologize to was the real Nan Hua, who was no longer here.
