120 The Lovely Princess (2/2)

”Got it.”

Jun Qing cleaned up his things before walking outside with Kuina. She guided him sneaking to the palace. Experiencing how easy it is to sneak in, Jun Qing feels that the palace guards are intentionally letting this area open. They know that their princess would sneak out which is why they let this place unguarded.

The garden is big, as expected of the palace. Despite they are located in a mountain, this place is well maintained and Jun Qing can see various types of plants.

”I love to come here,” Kuina smiled. ”And I would sometimes fall asleep here too when my maid accompanying me to play.”

”Please don't,” Jun Qing doesn't want his endurance got tested for another round. He is already getting tortured enough this afternoon.

”Why are you so against me sleeping?” Kuina rolled her eyes. It's just sleeping in the room and it's not like anyone would see her. Besides, he's there and he could wake her up if someone comes.

”I'm a man, Princess Kuina. Do you think I could stay calm in front of a pretty girl?” Jun Qing said helplessly. Is this princess trying to challenge him as a man?

Oh right… Because of Jun Qing face that looks much older, Kuina always treat him the same as she treats other old man. They would just ignore her playful antics and regards it as her naughty nature. She had forgotten, Jun Qing is only in his twenties and he's an adult man. Remembering it caused Kuina face to turn beet red.

Jun Qing sighed. ”You don't have to worry. I won't attack you or anything. Just don't keep on challenging my patience.”

Kuina looks at Jun Qing. She smiled craftily. ”What if I say that I like you?”

Jun Qing doesn't know the answer. He just feels that his face had turned red… he looked away and coughed.

”Please don't joke around, Princess Kuina.”

Kuina hadn't expected that his reaction would be so cute. She had just found out that she was drawn to him by his simple and straight nature. After all, he is also the only man she had encountered who can cope up with her mischievous and stubborn antics.

”I'm not joking.”

Jun Qing stared back. This naughty princess had made him tired, but he doesn't dislike her. Liking her? Maybe he does without him realizing it. He raised his hand and stroked the girl head, ignoring their status.

Kuina is startled, but she smiled back.

The two of them stared at each other eyes. They hadn't done anything else when they heard the sound of coughing from beside them which make them quickly move away from each other.

Jun Min looks at the two of them. ”What are you two doing?”

For the first time in his life, Jun Qing truly wished to kick his nephew out for spoiling such a good moment.
