170 It is The Star (1/2)
Jun Zhenxian almost cried when he looks at the person inside the carriage. For the first time in his life, he feels immense relief to see her looking as good as it can be. He stands on the spot for several seconds to deliver the information into his head before his face broke into a smile.
He gets in impatiently and urges the driver to take him home as fast as possible. It didn't take a long time for the carriage to reach their home, but it took him the entire journey to calm his heart.
He steps out from the carriage and look at the person in front of him.
”Hua'er… you're alive.”
Jun Hua smiled weakly. She never expected that her grandfather reaction will be this great. ”Grandpa, do you think I will die that easily?”
”No, of course you don't.”
”You're worrying too much. I had almost done in by their trap, but it's not like I hadn't had my preparation for this,” Jun Hua smiled.
”You have planned for this?”
”Not this incident, I'm not that good to the point of predicting their scheme. But, I have already prepared for my own death.”
Jun Zhenxian eyes almost popped out. This brat, do you even know what you are saying? You almost died and I had flung into rage, if you were to die for real, what do you think my reaction would be? I would destroy the whole capital, and if it's needed, the whole country.
”Not real death, fake death,” Jun Hua rolled her eyes as if she knows what her grandfather is thinking.
”Why are you faking your death? Don't you want to keep leading Jun family into rising?” Jun Zhenxian didn't understand. If they want the Jun family to flourish, don't they need someone strong to lead them?
Jun Hua smiled. ”You will know about it soon enough, Grandpa. We need to finish the matter on hand first.”
”You mean, the judgment for Lan family, I will take care of that. You should just prepare yourself and don't do anything dangerous anymore. Are you hurt anywhere?”
”There is a slight burn on my hand, but it's not serious,” Jun Hua said quickly as she sees her grandfather is going to fly into rage again. ”I will get it treated after we come back, but make it a secret. No one should know that I got burnt.”
”Alright.”
Despite that was what Jun Hua said, Jun Zhenxian still run here and there to fetch people to get medicine and all. The burnt is not big and with medicine, it won't leave any mark. After the doctor ensuring Jun Zhenxian that the wound won't leave any mark, he could finally feel calm and ease.
”What exactly happened in that room of fire?”
Jun Hua looks towards her grandfather. ”They prepared drinks with sleeping medicine. I'm sure that Lan Gao Ya only targeted me, but she is the one who falls asleep for real. When I approached her, I notice a pouch on her. It doesn't make sense to use it when she is trying to make me fall asleep. That's when I noticed that the scheme is overlapped, which means there are two people who are scheming for different things.
I hurriedly prepared for everything before waking Lan Gao Ya. At that time, the fire had spread and I could only bundles her into wet blanket to safe her.”
”How did you get out?” this is the question he wants to ask the most.
Jun Hua smiled. ”I'm the one who destroyed the pillar. That is the reason my hands got burn. As for getting out, it's easy with my martial arts to slip from the back of the building before it collapses.”
Jun Zhenxian remembers the special method she could employ to boost her speed. If she used that, travelling a far distance in a second wouldn't be impossible. But, the danger to stay in that kind of room is still really big.
”If you want to do something dangerous, you should have told me beforehand,” Jun Zhenxian chided. He doesn't want to feel like today anymore.
