390 I Will Return Back Soon
Jun Hua watched her husband pacing on the training ground with a rather confused look. It has been a few minutes since the other party walking around without any direction on the training ground. What did he plan to do?
"Is there something on your mind again?" Jun Hua asked in a soft tone.
Soujin raised his head and nodded slowly, "Because Ming Hui hadn't returned yet, I'm the one who should go to Gu Yue Kingdom as Long Kingdom's representative."
Soujin already told Jun Hua about the trade and the princess demand for having someone from their kingdom to come over, but he hadn't told her that the one the princess asked was him. However, Jun Hua already guessed about it from the moment Soujin told her because there was simply no one with higher ranking and capable compared with Soujin who was available.
"If you have to go, then you should just go," Jun Hua said immediately.
"You're kicking me out again, little girl?" Soujin felt amused at Jun Hua's order to him. He could faintly remember the time when he was sneaking into her room just to see her, but the other party immediately kicked him out with her words.
"I'm not kicking you out this time," Jun Hua retorted. Why should she kick him out when they were already living together? "If you go, you will return back soon, right?"
Soujin was stunned at the answer Jun Hua gave him. Indeed, no matter how far he had to go, this was his home and would always be his home. He will surely return to this place again in the future no matter how hard it is.
"Of course I will, you know that little girl," Soujin ruffled the girl's hair with tenderness.
Jun Hua smiled warmly before her face turned stern, "But if you dare to look for other women, I won't allow you to walk even a single step here."
That was quite a threat, but Soujin simply didn't care. In his eyes, there would only be one girl and that person is Jun Hua. No other woman can enter his heart anymore. The place was already full for her.
"Don't worry. I won't look at any other girl."
Just one is already more than enough.
Jun Hua didn't pester the other party about it again as she sighed, "I'm still in my confinement period, so I won't be able to send you off. I hope you will be alright in that country."
"Don't worry about me so much," Soujin pulled Jun Hua to his embrace and kissed the other party's head, "You just have to take care of yourself."
"Don't get too close with me, we are outside," Jun Hua protested.
"No one see," Soujin lips curled up. When the servants saw him staying together with Jun Hua, they tactfully walked away to give them space. Who would want to torture themselves by being a bother to these two devilish trainers? If they become a hindrance, the next thing they know will be they would have to endure a hellish training.
Jun Hua sighed at this man shamelessness. She decided to stay at his embrace since she rarely spent any time with him lately due to her busy with her son. In any case, Nanglong Shou was too cute for her to leave him alone; though that was probably her motherly instinct already grew.
"When did you plan to leave?" Jun Hua asked.
"In two days," Soujin answered. "But before that, I want to have a taste of your cooking first."
Jun Hua nodded her head. It has been some time since the last time she touched the cooking utensil. After all, she was idle for almost all the time she spent pregnant since the servants would not let her work at all.
"What do you want to eat?"
"Anything you cook, I would eat."
"…" he was still as shameless as before. Jun Hua thought to herself for a moment before deciding to cook a soup for him and headed towards the kitchen.
After dinner, Soujin decided to visit his grandfather workplace.
Nanglong Souka nearly dropped the stack of documents into the floor when he heard about Soujin coming. He felt that the world had collapsed for that arrogant little boy to suddenly visit him at this time.
"What makes you come here, you little brat? Don't you have enough with making me work at this old age?" Nanglong Souka greeted Soujin with complaint.
Soujin looked around the room with an indifferent expression. The room was filled with paper from all over the place. It seemed Yan didn't hesitate any longer to give this old man ton of work to do. Of course, half of it was from his own work that he asked the Emperor to hand over to his father.
"You seemed to be happier when you're busy compared with when you're idle," Soujin answered lightly.
"That's a lie," Nanglong Souka chided, "You didn't visit me even once when I'm working. How could you know that I like to work?"
"I did visit you, but you're too focused on your work to notice me."
Seeing the mountain of paper around him, Nanglong Souka's face darkened. How could it be possible for him to not focus on his work? If he wanted to finish everything faster, he would need to stay focus, so obviously he would not pay any attention to the others.
"What do you want by coming here? It's not like you have any work here."
Soujin picked out a paper and put it in front of his grandfather, "I have prepared this place for you."
The paper from Soujin was a picture of a beautiful and refined villa. From the surrounding, it was clear that the villa was located at quite a remote and peaceful place, but still has transportation means to go to other places.
With Nanglong Souka old age, it was indeed already the time for him to retire. He just hadn't thought of a good time to end his work and stay in a peaceful place. Never would he think that his usually annoying grandson would prepare such a place for him.
"Are you asking me to retire now?" Nanglong Souka eyebrows rose.
"Not now, I still need you to be this kingdom prime minister for a few more weeks," Nanglong Soujin answered, "But after that, you can rest since you're old."
"I'm not old, you brat!" Nanglong Souka chided. He looked towards the picture once again. If he were to say that he was not tempted, then he would be lying. It was just he couldn't understand the reason Soujin choose to give him this option.
"Don't you want it, Grandpa?" for the first time, Soujin called him as such. Although he felt the word was weird to come out from his mouth, he still did it. They have been at each other neck for too long. He didn't want to end their interaction without him acknowledging him as his grandfather at all.
Nanglong Souka's mouth opened wide. His grandson finally called him grandpa after years unwilling to call him as such. Did the young man hit his head, or he finally forgave this old man?
"Yes I do want it and if it's possible I want more servants there…" he regained his composure and started to list out his demands.
Nanglong Soujin rolled his eyes in secret. How could he not know that Nanglong Souka was hiding his happiness? "I have already prepared what you need there. Just finish your work and move there after the matter was finished."
With that Nanglong Soujin stood up and walked out of the room. Nanglong Souka stayed silent for a while before opened his mouth once again. "Take care of yourself, you brat."
Nanglong Soujin waved his hand and disappeared from Nanglong Souka's gaze. The old man leaned back on his chair as he sighed.
"Sei, your son is really troublesome just like you when you're young. Still, you two are truly my pride."
He smiled slightly before straightened up to finish his work.
