Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

Chapter 152 - The Festival



Jun Family Residence

Jun Zhenxian is laughing as he watched his granddaughter already stopped her acting. She cannot stay within her room anymore and itching to get out from it.

"What is it, Grandpa?" Jun Hua looks at her grandfather who's still laughing. Despite her feeling slightly annoyed at her grandfather antic, she still behaves herself and stays calm.

"You sure cannot stay quiet on your room. Will you come to tomorrow festival?" Jun Zhenxian laughed again.

Jun Hua nodded. "I will. What about you Grandpa?"

"This old bone will just stay at home," Jun Zhenxian said while laughing.

Jun Hua nodded and she strode to the living room. The room is still in good condition. It seems her grandfather didn't destroy the room anymore. Well, previously he probably did it because he wants to have a fight with her, but he cannot bring himself to say it directly.

"Will you go as Jun Hua or Jun Min?"

Jun Hua raised her head, "Jun Hua."

Jun Zhenxian nodded. Jun Hua proceeds to the training hall and practice her concentration again. In mere seconds, she had entered the zone and starts her training. Jun Zhenxian watched from the side feeling somewhat guilty but proud. He's the one who train the girl the most until she can become a really talented fighter like now, but it makes her lose her time to learn things a girl should have learned.

The day passed smoothly. The next day, Jun Hua prepared herself and wear a good clothes while Yamin had dressed as Jun Min. Looking from the side, Xia sighed.

"Soon, you will need to search for another people to pass of as yourself. Yamin had grown taller than you, Miss."

Jun Hua notices it. Despite only taller by 2-3 centimeters, she will still grow taller and it's possible that the two of them would have more different stature. She cannot let them find out her true identity and it will be hard for Yamin to pass of as her in the future.

"I will think for a solution."

Xia nodded. "Good luck Miss."

Jun Hua and Yamin go to the festival. There are a lot of people there and each of them is walking on the streets. The stalls are plenty and Jun Hua truly wants to try them. But before that, she wants to look for the food here.

"Min, have you gone to a festival before?"

"No, I haven't…." Yamin almost wanted to add Miss, luckily she remembers not to.

Jun Hua nodded. She had expected it to be so. She looks around, thinking which one she should try out first when an eyesore comes to her sight.

Lan Gao Ya comes with Lan Ping, but she would never expect to see Jun Hua and Jun Min together. The two of them are really similar in stature, if not because they are dressed so differently, she might thought of them as twins.

"Princess Jun Hua, Prince Jun Min," Lan Ping said with heavy tone. He feels that this is truly his bad luck, to encounter those whom he hates the most at the beginning of the day. Besides, their title makes him remember his lost on the battle.

"Lan Ping, Lady Gao Ya," Yamin said politely, imitating the way Jun Hua talks as Jun Min.

Lan Gao Ya smiled sweetly, making Jun Hua feels like she wants to get away as soon as possible. She clearly knows that gaze, but coming from Lan Gao Yan makes her feels nausea. She wonders why just the sight of this girl can make such a reaction coming from her.

Lan Gao Ya wears a beautiful flowery type dress. She didn't even bother to wear a veil at this kind of occasion. Any men who landed their eyes on her would find her too charming thus they would unable to look away. After all, not many nobles are like Lan Gao Ya.

Jun Hua let her eyes looks around, but didn't see anything interesting, so she can only bear with it.

"Do you have any interest in a challenge?" Lan Ping said provoking.

Yamin sighed, but she could see that Jun Hua signaling her to say yes, so she nodded. Looking at that, Lan Ping grinned and pointed to one of the stalls.

"What about that one?"

That stall is about using a ring to throw it towards the present on the board. This game is usually for the commoners as they could use martial arts to get the ring on the right one. Yamin raised her eyebrows.

"It will be an easy task for us to play it."

"Why not competing who's the quickest?" Lan Ping smiled.

Lan Gao Ya doesn't want to see them playing that sort of game, but she does want to see Jun Min skill. She turned towards Lan Ping.

"Get the necklace."

Yamin turned towards Jun Hua. "Is there anything you like?"

Jun Hua looks towards the stall. All in all, she doesn't have much interest on the items there because she could get even better items as she is the Miss of Jun family. But, if she should pick, she will just take something useful.

"That shuttlecock*."

Not only Yamin, even Lan Gao Ya and Lan Ping stared with incredulous expression towards Jun Hua. This shuttlecock is a game for children on the streets and normally a girl from a good family rarely play this game. Given that Jun Hua is already 15, it's already unsuitable to play.

Jun Hua just smiled which makes Yamin sighed. She pays for the ring and waited for Lan Ping. The man also moved forward and readied his arm. His head cannot understand why Jun Hua would want to get that kind of toy.

"Ready, start!"

Lan Gao Ya is the one giving the cue. The two of them moved their hands. Each of them had three rings, which means three changes. But, knowing Jun Hua usual style, Yamin use the three of them on the same shuttlecock while Lan Ping only used one to the one that Lan Gao Ya picks.

"Isn't it a waste to use them on one present?" Lan Ping mouth twitched. His face is dark because he is slower than Yamin. Of course he could never beat Yamin who was specialized in the training as an assassin. Throwing things to the right place already becomes a skill she has had since a long time ago.

Yamin shrugged and get that shuttlecock from the stall owned. She hands it to Jun Hua who accept it happily, her clear eyes looks shining.

"Thank you brother," her sweet voice traveled. For an instant, Lan Ping is stunned. The voice of Jun Hua is melodious and pleasing to the ears. Even the sweet voice from Lan Gao Ya cannot be compared with her.

Lan Gao Ya noticed her cousin eyes and her eyes glinted with maliciousness. It's time to get rid of this eyesore.
