889 Banquet in the Palace 8 (1/2)

Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes slightly. Wen Yu's strange and peculiar actions seemed to have only begun after he saw the ring on her hand.

One was the emperor, the other the Grand Adviser, both seemingly highly concerned with the ring she was wearing.

But one thing Jun Wu Xie could be certain about was that Wen Yu harboured no enmity against her.

”Why would the Grand Adviser say this?” Jun Wu Xie could feel that Wen Yu seemed to be hinting at something but at that moment, she couldn't think of a reason why.

Wen Yu looked at Jun Wu Xie's delicate little face. He had not wanted to get involved in the matter but as the kid was rather close to Lei Chen, and he found that he liked that pair of highly intelligent eyes, albeit a little cold and distant, but didn't look like they belonged to one who would conceal malice against people.

”Why? Doesn't Young Master Jun want to reunite with his family sooner?”

Jun Wu Xie's eyes darkened at that moment.

[Reunite with family?]

[Why would she not wish for that? Everything that she was doing was towards being able to rid herself of remaining in that passive state, to return to the Qi Kingdom without worry, and back to the Lin Palace.]

Wen Yu detected the dimming in Jun Xie's eyes and he realised that he might have said something wrong where he immediately said: ”I apologise, I have said something that I shouldn't have. But from what I heard, in the period that Young Master Jun had been here in the Imperial Capital for the Spirit Battle Tournament, you seemed to have attracted quite a bit of trouble onto yourself. It looks like the Imperial Capital is not a suitable place for Young Master Jun to remain in and to avoid having any more unpleasant things happening to you here, it might be better for you if Young Master Jun leaves here earlier.”

”More unpleasant things? What kind of things would they be?” Jun Wu Xie asked, looking straight at Wen Yu, trying to find more clues from the expression on his face, but Wen Yu was however not exhibiting anything peculiar on his face.

Wen Yu laughed lightly. ”I wish for Young Master Jun to set off on his return journey soon and as it is getting really late. If we do not make our way back now the banquet would be ending soon. Would Young Master Jun like to return back to the banquet with me?”
