97 Does man also learn needlework?
Soujin is indeed a capable general. Despite his body is riddled with wounds he can climb on the narrow path to the top on swift movement. It doesn't take him a long time to reach their destination, the cliff.
"Put me down, " Jun Min urged. Soujin is surprised because he feels that the person on his back is really light. He almost forgot about her existence if not for her reminder.
Soujin turned his head back. He carefully put Jun Min on the ground as the little kid sits down. She still doesn't have the energy to walk.
"Can you walk?"
"A bit, " Jun Min said awkwardly. She truly cannot pass off as a guy if this keeps on, they would surely think of her as a weakling. If the soldiers who had seen her fight know her thoughts like this, they would definitely have the urge to beat her up to vent their grievances from getting their body beaten black and blue by her.
Soujin put her down and dashed off to the trees nearby before returning back with some fruits. He handed some of them to Jun Min who accepted it gladly.
"After you have recovered enough energy, we will go to the east border."ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝓃oνel - 🅽🅽novel
Jun Min nodded. Eating the fruit has indeed helped her a lot. It doesn't require her much time to recover some of her strength and they can walk towards the border. Besides, walking on a flat ground is easier than climbing steep wall.
Soujin stopped for a while. He whistles and a horse comes to their sight before being followed by another horse. They are horse that the two of them used before. It seems like they were waiting in some near areas when their master fell off the cliff previously.
"Can you ride the horse?"
"I can, " Jun Min feels that she's continue being insulted by Soujin during their journey back. It's not like she's that weak to the point she cannot walk at all, she still has some energy from eating and sleeping a few hours.
Soujin nodded."How's the situation on the Mountain Kingdom border?"
"Its fine, " Jun Min answered. The Mountain Kingdom won't attack them anymore is more correct. As long as the Jun family is still guarding the border, they won't have any intention of attacking anymore since its Jun Min who had helped them through their crisis. But this is a secret that she cannot divulge, not even towards Soujin.
"The Kai Kingdom is more obstinate. You will find out soon enough that they're stronger than the Mountain Kingdom."
"I'm sure about that, " Jun Min smiled.
After riding the horse for some time, they reached the border. Soujin soldiers are there and they're looking highly worried about Soujin. Seeing their general is alive and kicking, they sighed in relief.
"Call doctor, do you need one, Jun Min?"
Jun Min shakes her head. If the doctor here checks her, they would surely find out about her gender. Besides, she's not hurt at all, only tired from exhausting her energy over and over again.
"Then, you have some rests first."
"Wake me up when it's time to leave."
The soldiers hurriedly prepare rooms for both of them in separate places. Jun Min took a bath first before changing and sleeping on the bed, still with her face mask. She didn't dare to take it off in case there is someone getting inside without her knowing, for example, Soujin. With his martial arts, she wouldn't realize that he's already near her until he's really close.
Soujin look for a doctor he knows. Since he's on the battlefield, there are only some doctors which he's familiar with and knows about. He would never let a strange doctor check him in case they're sent by the enemies to threaten him.
"How is my wound?" He asks.
"It's already healing, the first aid is good. Seems like the one who did it is an experienced person, " the doctor said.
Soujin nodded. He's not really surprised since a soldier normally learns a bit about this kind of things. But for Jun Min to be so proficient, he must have been wounded a lot in the past, that's what his thought is.
"Your wound has been stitched and it's neat too. Have you treated them before?" the doctor asks again. This time, he's feeling surprised because he knows that Soujin would never let a stranger come closer to him.
Soujin shakes his head."No... only the first aid."
"Your first aid is amazing. Let me dress the wound again."
As the doctor check his wound again, Soujin thinks about Jun Min. The one who did the first aid should have been him, but why would he stitches the wound? Does man also learn needlework? Maybe he will try to ask about it later to him.
Dressing the wound didn't take a long time and Soujin returned back to his room to sleep. His soldiers are all watching and guarding him. They won't let anyone come close with their general and put some risks to him.
The next morning, Soujin prepared horses for them to go towards the border. Given that he had taken a few days off from leading the army, they shouldn't have gone too far into the enemy territory unless the enemies are luring them. Soujin has confidences on his soldier that they wouldn't do such a mistake.
KNOCK! KNOCK!
"Little kid, wake up. It's already morning, " Soujin personally go to Jun Min room.
Jun Min hurriedly dressed up and fixed his appearance before opening the door. Looking at the highly spirited Soujin, he truly wonder just who among them the one who got hurt is. Why is he still looking so spirited while Jun Min is the one who's tired?
"The horses are ready. Let's go."
Jun Min followed after Soujin towards the field and ride on his horse. She looks towards Soujin who's riding on his horse too. He waved his hand and Jun Min along with the soldiers march towards the northeast border.
As they are riding the horse, Soujin looks towards Jun Min with a curious look.
"What is it?" Jun Min doesn't feel comfortable under his gaze.
"I want to know, does the men in Jun family learn needlework?"
That was the question he hoped that the other party never asks. Jun Min stared coldly and ignored that general.
