Flowers Bloom From Battlefield 157 I Should Have Told Him The Truth Before…

Qin s.h.i.+e looks at the girl in front of her with complicated expression. The girl before her is Tian Ni, Soujin childhood friend, but Soujin refused to meet her. He only gives her a sidelong glance before going out again.

Tian Ni is 20 years old girl, an unmarried lady. She was waiting for Soujin, but they hadn't got the chance to meet since Soujin is always away for war and all. Finally, she comes to the capital, but Soujin merely gives her a cold glance before going out.

She looks towards Qin s.h.i.+e with an aggrieved look. Her pretty face and alluring figure made people unable look away. Her beautiful appearance hadn't change in the slightest during this time and she makes people feel that they cannot make things hard for her.

"Aunty, does Ni'er do something wrong?" Tian Ni asks with pleading tone. She calls Qin s.h.i.+e as Aunty not because of blood relation, but rather the two family's relation years ago.

Previously, Qin s.h.i.+e would actively support her to get close with Soujin because she's worried about her son. As a mother, she would want her son to get married and grant her grandchildren. But, after knowing that his son really doesn't care about TIan Ni and doesn't even bother giving her a glance, Qin s.h.i.+e knows that it will be impossible for Tian Ni.

"You don't, it's just Soujin doesn't have any interest in you."

"Why?" Tian Ni said partially sobbing. "I have been waiting for him so long. Does he still doesn't have any interest with me?"

Qin s.h.i.+e shakes her head. "He doesn't. It will be better if you give up and look for a husband on your own."

"No, I can't."

Qin s.h.i.+e looks at the girl in front of her with pity. She had wasted her youth waiting for someone who didn't even look at her properly. She loved him and waited for him year after year, but he didn't spare any glance at her.

"Aunty, don't you want Soujin to get married? Can't you persuade him?" Tian Ni pleads.

Qin s.h.i.+e wore a helpless smile. If she could, she would do that. Soujin never actually listened to what she said despite he is still respecting her by waiting patiently. Qin s.h.i.+e knows that no matter what she did, her son will not pick a girl he doesn't like. That stubborn att.i.tude of his is really similar to his father, though in his father case, he had to relent a bit.

"I can't. I'm sorry Ni'er."

"But…" Tian Ni cannot just give up like that. She has waited for him all this year and keeps on rejecting the offer from other people. She will make him turned his head towards her.

…

Soujin walked towards the training hall. This time, there is another person already inside and using the equipment; Jun Min.

"Oh, Soujin, you have finished the matter with your childhood friend?" Jun Min asked.

Soujin shrugged. "I don't pay any attention to her. Have any time to spar?"

"Sure."

The two of them are fighting with their sword for some time before stopping. Soujin skill had increased even more and Jun Hua found it hard to catch up though she still can do it for a limited amount of time.

"If it were a life and death battle, things wouldn't be so simple," Soujin commented.

Jun Hua nodded. When their live is on the line, the fighting ability they could show is far more ferocious compared than when they are sparing. If it comes to that, probably the two of them would end up with heavy wound.

"I don't want to fight like that with you."

"It's the same with me," Soujin studied Jun Min face. "But, it will come to that, won't it?"

Jun Min shrugged. "Probably, it will. The Jun family are going to separate themselves from Ming Kingdom. As long as you're staying within Ming Kingdom, you're going to be our enemy."

Soujin stopped in his track. When they first come over here, they are merely acquaintances who have the same goal. They are probing each other about what the other party wants and all. But, after experiencing the last year, they have become genuine friends.

Looking at the boy before him, Soujin feels heavy. Is it a wrong move to befriend him after all? Not only this boy becomes his best friend, he had guided him towards knowing his sister, the girl whom he had taken interest for the first time. Should the Jun family separate themselves, wouldn't he need to fight against the girl's strategy?

"I see, when will it be, Jun Min?"

Jun Min shakes his head. "I don't know. There are still some preparations before the time comes. You don't plan to stop me, right?"

"I won't stop you," Soujin answered. They have their own path and no matter what happened, he will not stop them from going towards their goal. His goal and Jun Min goal might be different and he doesn't have the right to stop his own friend achieving his goal.

"Thanks," Jun Min nodded.

"What is your plan for the time being?"

"I think I will stay on the house and calmly do my things," Jun Min answered. "Why you're asking?" previously, Soujin would never interfere with his personal life unless there is something happened.

"I want to borrow your sister to the northeast border, the near one where the soldiers are there for training."

"…Why do you want my sister to go there?"

Soujin stares at him and answered bluntly, "I like your sister."

Jun Hua brain almost didn't work anymore. This man said what? She didn't mishear did she? She could already feel heat coming towards her face. Luckily she wears a face mask or else he's going to find out!

"What… did you say?"

"I won't repeat it again. I just want to spend more time with her before you leave," Soujin answered in all honestly.

Jun Hua doesn't know how she should answer this question. This news is just like a bomb to her head, but it explained the reason why Soujin would bother her to bring Jun Hua out. But, since when? And why did he take the interest towards Jun Hua despite only meeting for such brief moment?

Jun Hua didn't understand. She feels that she should stay away from this man. After all, she didn't harbor the same feeling as him and she doesn't want to give him false hope.

"You're not allowed to get close to her…"

Soujin arched his eyebrows and smiled deviously, "I only tell you because I don't want to abduct the little lady. Do you think you can stop me if I want to take her away?"

Shameless! Annoying! Jun Hua glared at him from the corner of her eyes secretly. Despite her knowing that the other party won't actually abduct her out of respect, she knows that it won't hinder him from bothering her. All this time he won't do anything inappropriate to her and mostly only try to touch her, in which she always slapped his hand. Still, he might trespa.s.s her room again….

After a long time training, this is the first time she feels that her training is not enough to handle the man in front of her. She knows that she won't be able to reject him like this and knowing that it might be the last time she spends time with him as Jun Hua, she gives in.

"Just this time… But, I won't give her to you."

Soujin smiled. "I will win over her heart myself. Tomorrow I will come to your residence to take her on the trip."

With that, Soujin walks away, never noticed that the girl behind him already stunned speechlessly. Jun Hua feels regret to never tell the fact that she's Jun Min to Soujin. With that declaration said to her face, Jun Hua wants to dig a hole and buried herself.

"I should have told the truth to him before…"

Now, she believes that she is digging her own grave.
