Astral Flower-Chapter 522: Comfort

Mrs. Su looked at her husband in confusion. "What are you...?"

"Don’t mention about this again. We’ll return back tomorrow and not step to the Capital City ever again." Mr. Su was tired.

He thought about the large amount of money that he had received before and sighed deeply. At the very least, they still have enough money to live a good life if they returned to their planet now.

It might not be as comfortable as it was before.

They had to start working again.

Thinking about the hard work he had done before, Mr. Su felt rather uncomfortable. But if he still wanted to live, then he had to find some work to do. This kind of life that he received due to other means were not long lasting.

It was something that he had to accept.

Mrs. Su looked at her husband with dissatisfaction but she shut her mouth.

Before they ever met with those people, they were living in a relatively remote planet. Everyone was similar to them, poor but living their life to the fullest. It was not like they had ever seen the wider world and thought about other things.

After all, as long as they were able to live well, who would have the time to care about those things?

But after tasting the sweetness of a lot of money and seeing the big world, how could she be content with what they had.

It was just that she didn’t dare to speak up against her husband.

The habit embedded in her bones were not something that she could change overnight no matter what she said.

"Ugh..."

"Go to rest."

The two of them entered the room and no longer talked with each other. Mr. Su took out a cigarette and went near the window to smoke and calmed down. He was thinking about the future and what he should do later.

Things would change from now on because he could no longer think about this daughter of his who had already died.

It would be different.

"The morning practice is cancelled," Feng Yu Hua said after she had finished washing up. She rolled her eyes. "Hey, if that’s the case, I don’t have to wake up so early like this and can still enjoy the soft bed!"

"Lay bum," Ouyang Lin said as she walked out.

Feng Yu Hua turned to the door with a glare while Su Wan Rou also ran out to find her friends. She shook her head and looked at Nan Hua, who was sitting calmly on the side of her bed.

She tilted her head. "You clean up even faster than me. Can you sleep last night?"

"I never have any problem with my sleep," Nan Hua replied and stood up to walk around.

Never had any problem with her sleep?

To be honest, Feng Yu Hua doubted that statement. She herself had a lot of problems with her sleep back then, but she forced herself to stay strong all the time. Even if there were nightmare, she gritted her teeth and went through it.

No matter how scary they were, no matter how much her spirit was tortured, she had to pass through it.

Because if she was not at the top of her condition, other people might take the chance to kill her when she was unprepared. It was something that she couldn’t accept and will not allow to happen.

It took her years to get used to this kind of life.

And Nan Hua said that she had no problem with her sleep?

Feng Yu Hua had every reason not to believe this statement.

But she chose not to say anything as she followed behind Nan Hua with a trot. "What do you plan to do? I thought it’ll be better to sleep again."

"Can you sleep again?"

Feng Yu Hua pursed her lips and then shook her head. Well, it would be impossible for her to sleep again after waking up at this time. Feng Yu Hua also knew about it, but she hoped that it would be possible for her to sleep more considering that their sleep was not that much.

As for the matter last night?

Neither of the two cared about it. They knew that the organization will take care of this matter and no matter what they said or do, they should just stay quiet and do their mission well without interfering with what the organization was planning to do.

The life and death of strangers no longer affected them that much.

Even the life and death of those around them didn’t really arouse much feelings from them, which can be said to be really cold blooded.

But they didn’t have much other choice.

If they have feelings for everyone around them, they would have never been able to survive this long and had long left the world. It was only through hardening their own heart would they be able to survive in this harsh world.

As they entered the canteen, Nan Hua spotted Long Qian Xing who was leaning on the pillar. He also saw her and walked in her direction.

"I’ll leave first." Feng Yu Hua moved away from Nan Hua.

Nan Hua flickered her eyes when she saw Long Qian Xing coming. "Senior Long." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"Do you have some time to come with me?" Long Qian Xing asked and then handed over a bread. "For breakfast on the way."

Nan Hua lowered her head to look at the bread in Long Qian Xing’s hand. It was sweet cheese flavored bread, one of the few types of breads that she ate more often compared to the others.

She didn’t know why, but she always picked the sweet flavored food when it was possible but it was always done naturally. It would be impossible for her to let others to figure out her preferences and tastes, that was if she still has any.

Perhaps, she did have preferences.

She was just used to bury them deep within her heart and never let herself to show them in the slightest bit.
