Lin family residence.

After going home, Lin Yuan walks absent-mindedly. Her mind is still occupied by Jun Min face to the point she doesn’t realize that Lin San had appeared in front of her.

“Sister Lin Yuan, what are you doing?” Lin San eyed her sister suspiciously. The usual tactful Lin Yuan is dazed all day long to the point that she doesn’t even hear her. In the end, Lin Yuan maid had to nudge her Miss to make her conscious.

“Ah, I’m sorry sister Lin San. There are some things on my mind,” Lin Yuan hurriedly apologizes. She doesn’t want to get into trouble especially from Lin San.

Lin San wants to know what makes Lin Yuan looks so dazed so she asks her servants to ask about it. In less than few minutes, she has come to know the reason.

“Jun Min appeared?” Lin San asked in astonishment. She has long heard about this name and knows that he’s the adoptive brother of Jun Hua. Her father once said that Jun Min is merely a fictional character the Jun family made to increase their soldier morale. But now it seems that the news is wrong.

“Yes Miss. Jun Min appeared on the academy to pick up his sister.”

“That’s impossible!” Lin San hurriedly stand up and go towards her mother room. Chun Maora is sitting there with her servants by her side. They’re telling Chun Maora some gossip in the capital to make her entertained.

Chun Maora lifted her head when she sees her daughter come.

“San’er, is there anything wrong?”

“Mother, Jun Min appeared in the academy.”

CRASH!

“That’s impossible! Lin Tang told me that Jun Min is not existed,” Chun Maora brows creased. When she heard about how excellent Jun Min is, she wants to get close with him. If not for Lin Tang persisting that Jun Min is merely a figure the Jun family created, she would have long gone to the Jun family and ask to see the boy.

“But it’s true! Even Lin Yuan keeps on daydreaming because of him!” Lin San is highly jealous. She wants to see Jun Min too. From the starts, they all doubting the existence of Jun Min but who would actually dare to lie so blatantly to the emperor?

“Let me ask Lin Tang first!”

That day, Lin Tang had to face his wife barrage of question. His eye holds suspicion. He has heard about Jun Min and at the time he never believes them. Jun family is already on the decline, how is it possible to nurture a general in mere years? But somehow they did.

The past few years, he has wanted to meet the folks from the Jun family to see whether they’re putting a façade of not. He has never got the change to. Now that Jun Min has surprisingly appeared before the nobles girls, it makes him wants to believe that the Jun family is truly lucky. Regardless, he wants to make sure about it.

“Prepare a carriage!”

Jun family residence.

Jun Hua is too lazy to change into girl’s clothes because today Madam Mu only teaches her the manner for eating. Yamin hasn’t changed too and stand there because Madam Mu also wanted to see the face mask. She’s truly curious about the face mask that could change Yamin appearance so much.

When they’re still in the middle of learning, an unexpected guest comes to their door.

“Lin Tang has come?” Jun Hua raised her eyebrow. She thought that Lin Tang wouldn’t be easily moved, but it seems she’s wrong.

“Yes Miss. Old Master is talking to him.”

Jun Hua sneered. What a perfect time. “Xia, bring me my makeup bag. I need to fix up Jun Min face. And you fixed up Yamin appearance.”

Madam Mu stopped in her tracks. “You want to do something?”

“Yes, it won’t take long Madam Mu.”

Jun Hua hurriedly fixed her appearance and go with ‘Jun Hua’ to the living room. Lin Tang is sitting there with her grandfather and they only talked about light things. When they see both of them appeared, Lin Tang eyes flashed in surprise.

“Grandfather, Prime Minister Lin Tang,” Jun Hua greeted. By the side, Yamin only acts nervously and seems to forget how to address them.

Lin Tang scanned Yamin for a second before focusing on Jun Hua. Indeed, the young man is highly handsome and stunning. It’s no wonder that his daughter goes head over heels after seeing his appearance once.

Jun Zhenxian smiled. “Jun Min, Jun Hua, what is it?”

“I want to ask for Grandfather permission to take Jun Hua walks in the garden,” Jun Hua perfectly makes an excuse.

Jun Zhenxian brows furrowed. “Couldn’t you wait until the Prime Minister go?”

“If I wait, I’m afraid it will be too dark.”

“Fine, don’t take too long. I don’t want Jun Hua get sick.”

“Yes Grandfather.”

Jun Hua led Yamin to the garden. Yamin followed behind calmly. She knows that Jun Hua must have her own reasons to appear in front of Lin Tang. As subordinate, she needs to support her master.

Jun Zhenxian flashed an apologetic smile. “I’m sorry about my grandson. He’s a bit… um… willful.”

Lin Tang nodded, but his eyes still looks towards Jun Hua. There’s no way he would normally let such a perfect person go. But he comes from this family which complicates the whole matter.

“General Zhenxian, I want to ask for something outrageous.”
