Chapter 103: General, are you really a gentleman?
103 General, are you really a gentleman?
Jun Hua stared at the man before her with indignation. After ordering his soldier to finish up the battle as he prepared to leave, he pestered Jun Min to let him meet his sister. No matter what Jun Min said, he wouldn't listen and keep on telling the other party to allow him to meet with the lady. After being pestered by this annoying general for almost half a day, Jun Min get into carriage and change back into Jun Hua.
Soujin smiled when he's looking at the slightly annoyed face on Jun Hua. Upon remembering the maps she had drawn previously, his interest piqued and pestering Jun Min resulted in an astonishing result. "Why are you staring at this general like that? Have you fallen for me?"
'IN YOUR DREAM!' Jun Hua terribly wanted to tell this man to get off the carriages, so she can turn back into being Jun Min for the rest of the journey. She had ordered Yamin to get back early and tell her soldiers to go towards the north border, but if in the journey she needs to stay inside this carriages, their journey will surely takes more time.
Soujin ignored the angry look on Jun Hua as he took out a canvas and painting equipment. On the carriage, there is a small table he had asks his men to prepare. Putting the items on the table, he turned towards the lady.
"Maybe drawing would make you feel better."
"Why should I draw for you?" Jun Hua retorted with her icy cold voice. Although she no longer tampered her voice to make it lower, the sound of her voice is still similar with Jun Min. Despite her worrying about getting found out, getting out from this man range is the first priority.
"You want to draw for me?" Soujin smiled and his devilishly handsome face looks even more brilliant.
Jun Hua pursed her lips. "No, I don't."
Soujin turned his face towards the window. His demonic face turned cold. "Clear them away. Don't make any sound."
"Yes General!"
Jun Hua clear eyes turned bigger. Her small head looks towards Soujin with astonishment. Even when he's 'flirting' like this, he's still aware of the movement outside. He's really a vigilant fellow and even Jun Hua cannot always stay aware especially when she's too tired.
Soujin turned his head back and asked. "What is it, do you like me now?"
"Not in the slightest bit."
Soujin didn't feel disheartened from the cold retort from Jun Hua. He put the brush before Jun Hua hands.
"Don't you like to remember things by painting? The scene from the fire is quite good."
If the people from the Kai Kingdom heard his words, they would surely raise their sword to kill him. That fire had caused them uncountable loss of money and resources. Although there is rain in the evening, the fire had spread out wildly and caused many trees to get destroyed beyond repair. They would surely hope to erase those memories from their brain.
Jun Hua raised her eyebrows. "Do you want to present them a memorable picture?"
"Who knows? All I know is that was an interesting scene."
"…"
This fellow is still hard to understand as always. But his words are indeed interesting and Jun Hua feels intrigued to paint it. She rarely draws anything other than the one she needed. The fire he caused had made a scene on that forest and the after-effect is a bare land.
Jun Hua picks the brush and dabbed it on the paint. In but a moment, the landscape of the areas where they stay is pictured on the canvas. Soujin looks towards it with interest, but Jun Hua concentration is fully on the painting. She doesn't have any spare energy to look at the man before her.
The carriages speed is not slow, but it's not really quick too. Soujin pick the smooth road, so he can see the girl painting. From the time he looks at the map, he knows that this girl has some other talent. Strategy, painting, what else? Somehow he wants to know more about her.
Jun Hua finished the painting. The bare land and the residue of the smokes are painted clearly. She turns towards Soujin as if saying, are you satisfied?
Soujin peered towards the painting as he thought about some matters inside his mind. The picture she had shown him now clearly excelled in the details, especially things that was usually left behind. She must have painted pictures for a long time to produce such good painting.
"You're a talented painter. If you didn't pick the music at that time, maybe I would have another chance to see your painting."
"You won't," Jun Hua answered simply. She never had planned to paint in front of other people. From the time she comes to know her talent in painting, she never wants anyone to know, but this man had already found out about it and there's nothing she could do.
"You won't let anyone know?"
Jun Hua smiled. "If a lady has both beauty and talent, what do you think would happen to her?"
She knows that someone who's too perfect would have many enemies. If she had enough power, then she wouldn't afraid, but she did not. The Jun family was declining and only through her trick can they stand tall again. Should she expose to the world of her real talent, they would surely target her even more.
When that happens, she would not have any peace anymore. She's not afraid when they slight her and look down at her. She's more worried if they are overestimating her. It's better to be seen as useless when she doesn't have enough power to stand against her enemy.
"Your brother has it rough," Soujin commented. To protect his sister, he had to pose in front and bear the burden. The two of them are truly amazing.
"Why are you so adamant to meet me?"
"It's because you're more expressive than your brother. And your face too…"
SLAP!
"It's impolite to try to take off a veil of a lady, General Soujin," Jun Hua glared. "Are you really a gentleman?"
Soujin retracted his hand that's being slapped away by Jun Hua. His face didn't contain any anger as he smiled. What he thought about this girl is only how interesting she is and he can get his small revenge later.
He picks the painting. "Thank you for the gift."
Only when Soujin has gone out from the carriage did Jun Hua released her breath. That was a dangerous one and she doesn't want that man to see her face anymore. What wanting to meet her because of her face? It's obvious he comes to assess her in terms of painting.
As for Jun Min lack of expression? The face mask is the culprit... Maybe she needs to train how to be expressive when wearing it.
