You Need to Keep Acting

For the next few days, Jun Hua is not allowed to go outside her room even for eating. Xia would bring the food inside the room, so Jun Hua can eat inside the room. Today is the same. Jun Hua is reading her books while sitting on her bed. There is not much she can do while acting as a sick person.

Jun Zhenxian is busy with handling the numerous requests that suddenly come. The number of people expressing their sadness over the incident cannot be said to be few. He had to sort them up, one by one… Though the one who are busy the most are the servants, he still had tons of work to do.

"Min, you go to the hall," Jun Hua suddenly said.

"Yes."

With that, Yamin disappears and Jun Hua sits in her room calmly. Her eyes turned towards the window and soon enough, a knock is heard.

"Can't you use a door?"

Nanglong Soujin is outside, looking at the girl before him calmly. Jun Hua cannot detect him, but she noticed his servant who's following him. She glared at this man who suddenly appeared within her room.

"You seem fine."

"I'm good. The medicine worked," Jun Hua retorted.

Soujin can clearly detect that this girl doesn't like him being here. But, he doesn't care. He was worried about her ever since that incident. Unfortunately, the rules didn't allow him to meet with the girl because they don't have any connection.

"Even inside the room you wear a veil?"

"Why not? You're here," Jun Hua said again. This man is really annoying. It's because of his existence that she had to wear the veil. She doesn't want this man to see her real face anymore.

Soujin chuckled. His eyes are looking at Jun Hua with demonic gaze making Jun Hua feels uncomfortable. She stared back at his face, challenging him.

"Your eyes are truly different."

Jun Hua lifted her eyebrows. "What is the difference?"

"You don't afraid or even try to win my good side," Soujin answered.

What is the use for it? Jun Hua had been with him once every week for battling, is there any need to act? Anyway, she is not one who is used to act as an afraid or bashful girl, at most try to avoid attention and act dumb. As for with this guy? She doesn't have the willingness to do that.

"Why are you coming here?"

"To check on you, but it seems unnecessary," Soujin lips curved, making a devilish smile. One would never know that he is the one being concerned about the other party just the day before.

"Does your fall is your brother's plan?"

Jun Hua eyes narrowed at this man question. Soujin looks at the girl's expression and nodded his head as if answering himself.

"So it's true."

"There is no need for you to meddle, General Soujin," Jun Hua said carefully. When this man uses his brain, she knows that she won't be his match. What a troublesome man.

"I won't meddle," Soujin answered, "I will only stay here."

Hearing his answer, Jun Hua is speechless. Somehow Jun Hua feels that this man is really unfathomable. People said that woman thought is hard to guess like a needle in the ocean, but looking at this man, Jun Hua feels that he's even harder to understand. They clearly only meet a few times, but he keeps on coming to her and bothering her.

"Then you should go," Jun Hua said.

"Are you kicking me out?"

"Yes, I am."

Hearing that blunt answer, Soujin instead move his feet to the chair on the room and sits down on it. Jun Hua wants to kick him out badly, but she is 'sick' and cannot do much action.

"This is my room."

"I know," Soujin answered. "Do you want to know what happened with Lin Tang?"

Jun Hua raised her head. Does something happen to him? He was thrown out from his residence and lives on the streets from a few days before, right? Is there anything else?

Looking at the eyes of the girl before him, Soujin knows that she hadn't heard anything. It should have been expected since she was confined in this room and the two of them worked very secretly.

"He lives on the street as beggar."

"Beggar?" Jun Hua is sure that he must have enough money even after being thrown out. After that, he can try to find some work for living. Why should he resort into being a beggar?

"He's truly an unlucky man," Soujin said calmly.

Those words of Soujin makes Jun Hua raised her head. Does this man do something? Why is he helping her?

"Thank you."

Soujin eyebrows rose and her evaluation about Jun Hua had unknowingly risen again. "You're a sharp one. Do you have any interest with the festival next week?"

Jun Hua doesn't really want to go outside with how the people are looking at her. But, she was curious with the festival since she never went there before, so she wants to come.

"I do. I will come with my brother," Jun Hua answered.

"I will meet you there," Soujin said before leaving through the window once again.

Jun Hua looks at him. Why is he coming here just to say those words? As a general and a new prince, he should be busy and not like her who dumps everything to her servants. Jun Hua shifted her attention back to her book and read it. She still needs to act for a long time here.

Soujin returned to his residence with Lou following after him. Lou martial art is not as high as Soujin which makes Jun Hua manages to detect him. Luckily, Lou didn't know that his martial art was lower than a girl or he would undoubtedly feel depressed.

"Mother, what is that?" Soujin comes home and noticed his mother is looking towards a certain card with furrowed brows. Anything that was written on that card must have made her feeling bad or uncomfortable.

Qin Shie sighed. "Your childhood friend, Tian Ni, is going to come back to the capital."

"Tian Ni?" Soujin only has some vague memories about that girl. He never had any interest towards that girl in the first place.

"There is some matter her father needs to attend on the capital. Since she's coming back, the Tian family wished that you would take her around."

"Tell them, this gen-prince is busy," Soujin refused flatly.

Qin Shie forced a smile on her face as she watched her son walked away. She knows that her son only sees Tian Ni as a sister at most, but that girl… Haih, this is going to be a problem.
