58 Second Attemp
The feat of Jun Min to protect a child under ambush soon spread in the capital. The person who sends the assassins can only gritted their teeth in anger as their plan failed. The plans they have carefully make have instead boost the other party fame. How laughable.
Yasha looks at the bandaged arm of Jun Hua with pained expression. If only he has returned earlier, then his Miss doesn't need to get hurt. 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝓃o𝙫𝒆𝙡 - 🅽🅽novel
"Don't make that expression, " Jun Hua smiled."It's only my left arm."
"But still, Miss body is precious."
Jun Hua laughed."With medicine, it will recover and there will not even any mark left. Don't worry, I won't let my body full of scars."
"Yes Miss."
"How is the preparation?"
"Everything is ready Miss."
Jun Hua smiled."Then it's good."
Jun Hua returned back to the camp. Many nobles didn't dare to look at Jun Hua. Her clothes are still red because of the assassins' blood. She hadn't got any chance to change them as she didn't bring her spare clothes inside the forest.
"Jun Min! Wah, your clothes are completely red!" Yan approached with Soujin beside him.
"It's not my blood, " Jun Hua grinned.
Soujin pointed to her left arm."But that part is."
"You can even notice it?" Jun Hua grumbled. She had obviously treated the wound and bandages it before letting her hand hang by her side. There shouldn't be any way for them to notice it that easily.
"I'm a general, " Soujin said as a matter of fact.
Jun Hua knows that but this guy eyes is truly sharp. She doesn't want to bother talking with them, but Soujin insist to see her wound. She forces them to wait until she finished cleaning up.
"I have treated it, " Jun Hua comes outside after she had finished changing her clothes.
Soujin looks towards the hand that has been bandages. After a while he said."Your wound is deep. Did you purposely put your hand in the place of the arrow?"
"Your eyes are truly sharp, " Jun Hua answered.
Soujin nodded. Before long, Representative Han come to their small group bringing some food. She grinned.
"Third brother, don't look that scary."
"Don't call me that in this place, " Yan said helplessly."Does Jun Min recognize you?"
"Yeah, his eyes are almost as sharp as Soujin. You should have been there before, third brother. That scene is truly amazing. It's like looking at a flower among the blood."
Jun Hua rolled her eyes. Does Ming Hui have some illness? To think that she would use flower as the description for her! She knows that her face is still looking girly even after she altered it but it should not match the word flower.
Soujin looks at Jun Hua."It's a good description."
"You didn't even see the scene."
"I can imagine it."
"Liar!"
While the other nobles still feels sick over what they see, the four of them instead exchange banter with one another. With their elite's servants guarding the surrounding, there's no chance for ordinary people to see this scene.
...
Lin Hong almost couldn't sleep. He's worried that Jun Min would know that the one who fired the arrow at that critical time is him. At the next morning, most of the nobles have recovered and only a few of them still looks pale.
Jun Hua is standing with them, but it seems she doesn't have any intention on hunting anymore. After getting four wolves yesterday, she had gained the upper hand against many people here.
"Young General Jun, are you alright?" Representative Han asked.
"I only wounded my left hand a bit but it's nothing serious, " Jun Hua answered politely."Besides, today I will be going with Prince Yan and General Soujin."
"I see, " Representative Han smiled back."I wish you a safe journey."
"Thank you."
That short conversation is heard by the people there. Wounded arm? To think that you only wounded your arms while seven people lost their life tragically! If they know the truth that Jun Hua fight with one arm wounded, they might not think of her as human anymore.
Jun Hua departed with Soujin and Yan without looking at Lin Tang at all. Lin Kang has been nervous the whole time that Lin Hong will make a move today but he keeps his calm. They journeyed into the forest and at one point, the people separated.
Lin Hong looks towards his father."Father, may I move around?"
Lin Tang nodded. Lin Hong looks towards Lin Kang with a slight smile. Lin Kang is still wary because of the usual cold gaze Lin Hong gives him. When he saw that Lin Hong is looking at him, somehow he feels that something bad is going to happen.
"What is it? First brother?"
"Come with me for a while."
Lin Kang wants to refuse, but the gaze from Lin Hong made him know that he's not allowed to. The other nobles are busy doing things they preferred and no one pays any attention to them. Lin Kang looks towards Jun Min, but the boy is busy talking with Soujin.
Both of them walked away from the group. Lin Hong only wandered around without much thinking until the sound of the people cannot be heard anymore. He looks around and stopped at one point.
Lin Hong eyes lit up when he sees the cliff. If the little boy were to disappear, no one should know that he's the one who tried to kill him. He has been tortured like crazy yesterday because of Jun Hua cold gaze towards him. Seeing the skill of a general and how he might found out the truth has made him cannot think straight.
When they reach the place that covered by trees, Lin Hong stopped. Looking at the cliff, he's really tempted to push his brother down. But if he really did that, he would not be able to response to his father.
"Forget it, let's walk again, " he turned around, but his movement startled the already afraid Lin Kang who slipped in his step and fall towards the cliff. Lin Hong reached out to hold onto Lin Kang, but his hand is not fast enough.
"First Brother!" the loud screaming is the last word from Lin Kang.
