Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

120 The Lovely Princess

Although Jun Qing can tolerate having the princess drags him around everywhere, he cannot accept seeing her fall asleep on his work room. He told her to wait for him working, but that princess just fall asleep beside him.

Jun Qing smiled wryly. "Princess, you never see me as a man, do you?"

Staying with him, this princess had never once put her guard up. She would let him see her real face and let him stay within her work place. She treated him like she would treat a friend, but the problem is he's a man and this princess is a charming princess. How can he continue to keep his calm before her?

Looking at her sleeping face, Jun Qing feels that his body turned hot. The princess may not be the prettiest girl he had ever seen, especially having that kind of niece whose face and stature can bring the entire nation turned upside-down, but she's one kind of rare beauty. She's a sharp girl who's really stubborn and loves to try new ideas. She had her ideals too which seems na?ve to him, but they're cute.

He turned his eyes away from the princess and continues to look at his paper. He shouldn't have any thought about her. She's just his friends…

Jun Qing sighed. "Princess… please wakes up. This is not your sleeping place."

He said in louder tone, but the princess didn't move at all. Jun Qing rolled his eyes and takes out a blanked to cover her before turning his attention back to his work. He cannot touch her, she's a lady and he's a man with no connection.

Kuina is having a good sleep for hours before she wakes up. The first things she sees is a table then she looks at Jun Qing who's still busy with paper. She yawned.

"General, you're still busy with works?"

"You can say so. Have some drinks," Jun Qing feels relieved that Kuina wakes up. This girl has been torturing him for hours…

"Thank you," Kuina drinks some water and looks outside. It seems she had been sleeping for quite some time. The sky is turning red-oranges.

"Princess, please don't sleep in here again… If you want to sleep, return to your chamber," Jun Qing said seriously.

Kuina pursed her lips. If she returned to her chamber at this time, her maids would surely nag her to finish her works. Only in here she can find some peace because Jun Qing would not force her to do any of her jobs. He would let her stay in here peacefully and continue his jobs. After he's done, she would drag him away to accompanying her to some places.

"This is the best hiding place."

"If you sleep again, I won't allow you to get inside," Jun Qing said seriously.

Looking at the serious face of Jun Qing, Kuina nodded her head albeit reluctantly. There is not much she could do while waiting and she is bored. Because of that, she had fallen asleep when waiting for Jun Qing works finished. She just hoped that the same thing won't repeat again or else Jun Qing might really not allow her inside again.

"I understand…"

"Where do you want to go tonight?"

"The palace garden, it's already nearing night and we can't go too far," Kuina said a bit disappointed. If only she didn't fall asleep, they can go to a farther place and a better one at that. Now, she can only pick a close place.

"Got it."

Jun Qing cleaned up his things before walking outside with Kuina. She guided him sneaking to the palace. Experiencing how easy it is to sneak in, Jun Qing feels that the palace guards are intentionally letting this area open. They know that their princess would sneak out which is why they let this place unguarded.

The garden is big, as expected of the palace. Despite they are located in a mountain, this place is well maintained and Jun Qing can see various types of plants.

"I love to come here," Kuina smiled. "And I would sometimes fall asleep here too when my maid accompanying me to play."

"Please don't," Jun Qing doesn't want his endurance got tested for another round. He is already getting tortured enough this afternoon.

"Why are you so against me sleeping?" Kuina rolled her eyes. It's just sleeping in the room and it's not like anyone would see her. Besides, he's there and he could wake her up if someone comes.

"I'm a man, Princess Kuina. Do you think I could stay calm in front of a pretty girl?" Jun Qing said helplessly. Is this princess trying to challenge him as a man?

Oh right… Because of Jun Qing face that looks much older, Kuina always treat him the same as she treats other old man. They would just ignore her playful antics and regards it as her naughty nature. She had forgotten, Jun Qing is only in his twenties and he's an adult man. Remembering it caused Kuina face to turn beet red.

Jun Qing sighed. "You don't have to worry. I won't attack you or anything. Just don't keep on challenging my patience."

Kuina looks at Jun Qing. She smiled craftily. "What if I say that I like you?"

Jun Qing doesn't know the answer. He just feels that his face had turned red… he looked away and coughed.

"Please don't joke around, Princess Kuina."

Kuina hadn't expected that his reaction would be so cute. She had just found out that she was drawn to him by his simple and straight nature. After all, he is also the only man she had encountered who can cope up with her mischievous and stubborn antics.

"I'm not joking."

Jun Qing stared back. This naughty princess had made him tired, but he doesn't dislike her. Liking her? Maybe he does without him realizing it. He raised his hand and stroked the girl head, ignoring their status.

Kuina is startled, but she smiled back.

The two of them stared at each other eyes. They hadn't done anything else when they heard the sound of coughing from beside them which make them quickly move away from each other.

Jun Min looks at the two of them. "What are you two doing?"

For the first time in his life, Jun Qing truly wished to kick his nephew out for spoiling such a good moment.
