Chapter 252 - Distance (1/2)
After eating a few spoonfuls of the blueberry ice cream, Yu Mei placed the bowl aside, ”It's good.”
Jun Zihao's laid-back expressions morphed into disbelief.
Su Ning elbowed him, trying to understand why he was acting so weird all day long.
Jun Zixuan's face remained expressionless. One could not say what he was thinking about.
Yu Mei wiped her face with a napkin before drinking water. Putting the glass down, she glanced at Jun Zixuan, ”Let's go to the gardens.”
Jun Zixuan stood up and quietly extended his hand towards her.
She held his hand and got to her feet before walking towards him, her gaze paused on Jun Zihao's disappointed face for a split second before she grabbed Jun Zixuan's iPad from the dining table and turned around.
Old Master Jun's brows tugged together but just as he was about to say something, his wife placed her palm on his.
The Old Man paused.
Old Madam Jun glanced at her other grandson and his fiancee, ”It's getting late. You both look exhausted by the long journey....”
”Grandma, we will stay here with all of you,” Jun Zihao interrupted her.
Su Ning glanced at him, not knowing when this change in the plans occurred. They were supposed to stay at his private villa.
A rare doting smile made its way on Old Madam Jun's face, ”Alright, go to your room then. Your father will be happy to see you here.”
Jun Zihao nodded as he stood up, ”Goodnight Grandpa, Goodnight Grandma,” He bowed as he turned around and walked upstairs.
Su Ning, who was still taken aback by his attitude quickly stood up and followed the suit before chasing after him.
”Are there any issues between them?” Old Master Jun glanced at his wife.
”They are compatible and they are engaged. Soon, they will marry. That is all that matters,” Old Madam Jun said after some contemplation. Su Ning is the daughter of the governor of Amaranthine and it could get any better for them than to stabilize their declining influence in the country.
”Why did you stop me?” The Old Man glanced at her questioningly.
”Jun Zixuan has changed completely. We can't approach him in our old ways. He is a rebel now,” Old Madam Jun spoke after a few seconds.
Old Master Jun nodded, ”We should wait until Zishen comes back.”
”He will know how to deal with this temperamental son of his...” Old Madam Jun paused as she turned her head to the side hearing the sounds of approaching footsteps.
”Father, Mother,” The man greeted as he walked towards them.
”Zishen, you are back so early?” The old couple stood up as they glanced at him in surprise.
Jun Zishen nodded, ”I got the news that Zixuan is here so I am back,” A rare gentle expression flashed across his aloof eyes but it disappeared before anyone could notice it.
”Don't take that unfilial boy's name from your mouth,” Old Madam Jun frowned.
