164 Gathering (1/2)

Thankfully for Jun Hua, the banquet didn't last long and she could get home after that. She feels that she is drained from energy just by going there.

”How is it, Hua'er?” Jun Zhenxian asked.

”It's tiring… I don't want to go to any banquet anymore. By the way, when is uncle wedding?”

”Next month. By that time, you need to finish everything here.”

”I understand, how about the soldiers?”

”I have moved most of them over. Their families too had been moved and only a handful of soldiers were still in this place.”

Jun Hua nodded. It means, only her plan hadn't finished yet.

Jun Zhenxian looks towards her. ”You still hadn't told me what you want to do.”

”It's a secret Grandpa. If you know then you won't be able to act like its real,” Jun Hua refused to tell him. No matter how many times Jun Zhenxian asked her, Jun Hua doesn't wish to tell him anything at all.

She returned back to her room to rest. Looking towards the somewhat small room, Jun Hua fixed her eyes on her table where she put some of her books. Picking one up, she traced her finger on the page with a wry smile. There's a paper from her men she put in the middle of the book, but the content is not something she wish to see right now.

”It seems I can't delay any longer for the plan. I'm sorry, Grandpa,” Jun Hua muttered out. This plan would surely make her grandfather worry, but this is the plan she had chosen.

”And… the others too.”

The next day, Jun Hua went out again while dressed as Jun Min. Jun Zhenxian could only shake his head and let her go despite feeling worried for her. From the little lady expression when she got out from the house, he knows that she is up to something again.

Jun Hua walks towards Restaurant Han Yan. This is not Saturday, but she wants to meet with them for a while. Walking in, she found out that Yan is there, but Soujin is not.

”What are you doing in my restaurant? It's still not Saturday, right?”

Jun Hua laughed. ”I come to inform you that Jun family will be going from Ming Kingdom.”

Yan stopped his action of taking the wine glass. This little boy is really annoying to announce such things in broad daylight. He looks towards Jun Hua. ”Do you know the consequences of doing that? You will be declaring war against Ming Kingdom on your own?”

”I'm not alone and I'm not afraid of Ming Kingdom. Besides, there are things beyond what you can expect, Prince Yan.”

”I don't understand what you're thinking, but are you sure on making us your enemy?” Yan stared at the boy in front of him. To separate theirselves from Ming Kingdom, that plan is more outrageous compared to what he had.

”Even if I don't want to, I can't.”

Looking at that smile on Jun Hua face, Yan cannot bring himself to say anything anymore. Indeed, staying in Ming Kingdom won't make the Jun family thrive. They need to hang on another place or instead stand by themselves. The emperor would never allow them to grow fully in this kingdom.

With them being on another place, the Jun family will rise again. This time there will be no one hindering them from above, but from outside. But compared with internal struggle, it will be better for them to face the enemies from outside.

Their friendship only lasted for short time and even Yan feels reluctant to fight them, but if that was how it should be, then he will let it go.

”I understand, will this be the last time we meet in peace?” Yan forced a smile. If he had to be his own friend's enemy, he would definitely feel reluctant. That meeting the year before should have never happened, so he would not need to experience this feeling.

”I don't know,” Jun Hua smiled.

”In the end, you're still a kid. I can't even propose a toast for you,” Yan sighed.

Jun Hua laughed. They are talking for some time before Soujin comes. That man seems to notice that Jun Min is here, so he comes.

”This is not Saturday, yet you have gathered here.”

”Well, Jun Min is going away. I still want to talk more with that young man.”

”Rather than calling him young, you better call him a kid.”
