Chapter 32: Time for Some Scheming



32 Time for Some Scheming

The four of them gathered on Restaurant Han Yan and they asked for free meal. He wanted to refuse, but they have already barged inside and started to order a few dishes. Yan knew that he won't be able to force his friends to pay up this time.

Besides, with him having earned such a good business, he was definitely in good mood prior. He was going to earn a lot of money! But, the beating he took just now had ruined his good mood.

"After getting beaten up by you, why should I let you eat freely?" Yan said in annoyed tone.

Ming Hui grinned, "Because you're a very kind brother."

"You-! Don't gang up on me like them!" Yan murmured in annoyed tone. He picked up another ice-pack to compress his bruises from the spar before.

Jun Hua enjoyed the food there very much. Everything was so delicious that she wanted to eat all of them. All the meat was tender and juicy; the vegetables were fresh and crisp, not to mention there were a lot of pastries and assortment of desserts there. Soujin also ate quite a lot. Training required a lot of protein for energy, so he's really hungry.

Ming Hui also picked up a lot of food to eat, leaving Yan with not eat much as his appetite was lost because of his bad mood after getting beaten up in two rounds. He stared at his friends who were eating so much like there's no tomorrow, and sighed in defeat.

"With this kind of face, how can I get girls?" Yan lamented.

Ming Hui rolled her eyes. "Why are you still looking for girls? You better finish up repairing the city you bought."

Yan sighed. He picked up his food and continued eating.

"Yan, we will be going away for some time so you don't have to worry about getting beaten up for a while," Jun Hua grinned.

"I know about that. Anyway, with your skills there shouldn't be any problem dealing with those troublemakers. Just make sure that they won't create trouble again," Yan answered.

"I can't control them," Jun Hua said.

"That's not what I mean."

They continued their banter after the food was finished. Jun Min excused herself first since she remembered that Lin San wanted to go to her quarters that afternoon. There was no way she would let her meet with Yamin in disguise.

Ming Hui's original elegant demeanor changed when Jun Min disappeared. She looked at the two men in front of me with a serious expression.

"He has already found out the truth about me."

Yan was surprised. "That quick? It took me a few years to realize it. How do you know?"

"His eyes," Ming Hui smiled. "That pair of eyes changed a bit when I smiled at him before. He must have noticed that something amiss."

"It doesn't matter, he won't tell anyone," Soujin said calmly, like he had expected this matter. His words implied that Jun Min would not care telling and exposing Ming Hui's disguise. Ming Hui nodded in agreement.

Yan glanced back. "How can you be so sure?"

"We are on the same boat facing the same wall," Ming Hui answered.

Unable to comprehend the riddles that these two people were spouting, Yan blurted out, "Can you please speak in normal language?"

"We're speaking normal language here. It's just your knowledge is not good enough to understand," Ming Hui smiled. "If you want to know more, wait for that news from me."

"There are still 3 weeks before that…"

"That's why you need to learn patience."

Soujin sipped his tea as the two siblings argued. He had confirmed that the two of them truly have identical face. There are some differences, but he won't believe it if people say that they don't have any connection. It seemed like he would have another matter he needed to investigate.

Lin family residence

Jun Hua returned on time before Lin San appeared. The girl appeared to be in a good mood because from the day before she managed to see Jun Min at the academy. Jun Min only accompanied Jun Hua for a while though before he left because of 'some important things.'

"Sister Hua, how was your lesson going?" Lin San asked.

"I think I'm getting better," Jun Hua pointed to the silk in front of her. "Is there any good news? You seem really happy."

Lin San smiled mysteriously. The truth was that she was happy to see Jun Min's face just the day before, but there's no way she could says that in front of Jun Hua. Aside from that, there's also some good news that came to her from her mother today.

"Sister Lin Yuan marriage partner has been decided," Lin San smiled. Without Lin Yuan, the competitor to get Jun Min has decreased.

Jun Hua was startled, but recovered quickly as she seemed to have expected this piece of news, "To whom is she going to get married?"

"Jo Han," Lin San answered.

Jun Hua blinked and in that span of a few milliseconds, she had thought about a lot of things. She heard about Jo Han, a scholar who was known for his lustful personality with a lot of concubines. To actually match Lin Yuan up to this man, did Chun Maora want Lin Yuan to suffer?

Jo family was a rich family and they have a lot of businesses, which made them one of the wealthiest families in the capital. There were a few young masters in that family and Jo Han could be considered as the worst one among all of them. Because of his backing, he could do almost anything he wanted in the capital with only a few restrictions.

Jun Hua deeply despised this man although she had never met him personally. News about him was aplenty, but since she needed to feign as an ignorant young lady, Jun Hua wore a face of confusion.

Lin San smiled when she saw Jun Hua's face. As expected, she was just a dumb girl.

"Jo family is a wealthy family. Father wants to get close with them in order to get more resources on hand. Jo Han is one of their young masters. Lin Yuan is indeed lucky," Lin San said happily.

Jun Hua looked at Lin San with a confused face. In her heart, she knew that Chun Maora was firm in not letting Lin Yuan to live peacefully and devised such a plan. Out of all the young masters in Jo family, why should she specifically choose Jo Han?

Jun Hua didn't reply anything to Lin San as she thought about what her reaction should be.
