408 Epilogue 2: Ming City and Yuan Kingdom (1/2)
Ming City
Ming Hui watched Yan working with a dark face. It has been around two years since the incident of the trade happened and he still didn't live in the Yuan Kingdom permanently. Fan Lanying encountered some problems and she hadn't returned yet, which made him reluctant to live in that place.
Seeing how Ming Yan was extremely excited to finish his work, his mood dampened even more. After a lot of persuading by many sides, Yan finally got married to Xiao Meng. Although at first their relationship seemed stiff because of the different culture, it has gradually turned better and now Yan was head over heels over the woman.
Yan noticed Ming Hui's worsened mood and he grinned mischievously, ”In the end, you're still the last one.”
Ming Hui glared at the other party and took out a needle, ”There is one spot where I can make you lost your ability as a man. Do you want to try?”
”…Do you have to be so ruthless to your brother?” Yan sighed. It seemed like Ming Hui's patience has almost run out. Who wouldn't be after being forced to wait for almost three years?
Ming Hui scoffed and put the needle back. He didn't have any intention to hurt Yan for real as he only wanted to meet his wife very badly. The frustration of not being able to meet with his wife has started to become intolerable. If not because Jun Hua was in the middle of her confinement period after giving birth to her second son, he would surely come to ask her or Soujin when he could meet with his wife.
”When will Soujin be willing to leave his wife?”
”I doubt anytime soon,” Yan answered unconfidently. Because he had missed the time of Jun Hua's first confinement period, it was unlikely he would want to leave her alone again.
The man's face turned dark. Does it mean he still needed to wait for a long time?
Yan took out a scroll, ”Jun Hua tells me to give this to you should you threaten me during the time the two of them are busy.”
Grabbing the scroll hurriedly, Ming Hui scanned the message before his eyes gleamed in excitement. He abruptly stood up, ”I need to go now, see you later.”
Ming Yan shook his head when he saw that, but when he looked at the pile of documents on Ming Hui's table, his face turned dark. Can't that man at least finish his work first?
While Ming Yan was busy struggling to finish his work, Jun Hua and Nanglong Soujin were idling in their residence.
”It has been so long since I have the chance to enjoy myself,” Jun Hua rocked the little boy in her arm. She seemed to have a child too quickly as she still wanted to have more time for herself.
Nanglong Soujin chuckled and took out a map in front of her, ”I heard there is a good hot spring here. Do you want to go there once your confinement period is over?”
”There are only two more days until it's over, but I don't think it would be a good idea to just suddenly leave,” Jun Hua peered towards the map. The location was not far, and they could bring their children too if they wanted or just ask Qin Shie to watch over the kids for a few days.
Nanglong Soujin leaned in and kissed her, ”Don't worry. Yan could handle the problem just well. Besides, there are already many talented officials working now.”
Jun Hua nodded. The officials they chose were already starting to work even better now and the kingdom started to flourish. After all, the rebels have been put off in many areas. ”Then let's arrange the time to travel sometime soon.”
”Before that, stop paying so much attention to him and look at me,”
Jun Hua was speechless at this man's sudden conduct, but she smiled in return and snuggled into his embrace. Her eyes looked towards the map as she wondered if there will come the time when she could explore more of the place, this time with Nanglong Soujin.
That future would be really interesting.
