Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

233 Pained Hear

The doctor already finished the treatment for Jun Hua, but the girl was still awake, gritting her teeth to bear with the pain. This was the first time she did something so reckless and purposely let the enemy hurt her in order to wound him. Despite she was controlling the place of the wound, it was still a deep wound where she felt extreme pain.

When the doctor had finished cleaning up his things, the door suddenly opened and a young man appeared. The doctor wanted to stop him, but he already walked to the bed and looked towards Jun Hua with worry filled his eyes.

Jun Hua eyes opened slightly and she could faintly see the silhouette of a young man, a man that sometimes she thought about whenever she looked towards Ming Kingdom. Her mouth opened slightly and she whispered the man name.

"…Soujin…"

Soujin was startled to hear his name. If not for his excellent martial arts, he won't be able to hear that nearly inaudible voice.

"I'm here."

How can he arrive here? Jun Hua brain was working again for a moment, but sleepiness hit her as she drifted to sleep.

Soujin knew that Jun Hua already fallen asleep. Looking at the slightly torn dress and her pale face, he felt that his heart was crushed. He thought that she would be safe in Mountain Kingdom, away from the war only participating as the strategist. But unexpectedly the little girl cannot stay quiet and came to the Yuan Kingdom at the most unfortunate times.

He was afraid of losing her. Meeting her again after several months, will he lose her? That thought made him filled with fear. He quickly turned towards the doctor.

"How is she doctor?"

The doctor knew that the two of them must have recognized each other from the way Soujin looked at her. He sighed in relief at that realization.

"The wound is deep, but it's not life threatening. It's just, there will be a scar."

The tone of the doctor was regretful. What kind of woman would want their body riddled in scar? From her times in the battlefield, Jun Hua was already being careful enough to not get any scar, though there were still some unavoidable scars.

Soujin also knew that. He didn't want the girl's body to have a scar either. The pretty girl on the bed was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. Scars were for men and not for women, that was what he thought as he looked towards the girl on the bed.

"Is there no way to erase the scar?" he said with hope.

The doctor shook his head. "I'm sorry."

It was not the doctor fault. Soujin let the doctor left when he felt the presence of Ming Hui coming. He frowned. The girl was not wearing her veil today and her face looked exceedingly beautiful. He didn't want anyone other than him saw it.

Before Ming Hui can come in, he kicked the other party at the door and locked it, preventing anyone from entering.

Outside, Ming Hui held his stomach with a grimace. That Soujin was truly ruthless, he didn't bother holding back when kicking.

"Yan, you better not get in. That man would butcher you if you did," Ming Hui pointed to the door.

Yan nodded repeatedly. This time, if even Ming Hui felt that much pain from being kicked out lightly, he would surely be beaten up black and blue by the other party. He didn't want to felt pain for hours for no reason like that. After all, the situation here was quite serious.

Jun Zhenxian walked to the door. "Young man, you better open the door."

Soujin didn't want anyone to enter, but thinking about their relationship that still not official, it was indeed unwise to stay together inside the same room. If people were to gossip around, the one who suffer would be her. With reluctance, he walked to the door and opened it.

Jun Zhenxian walked in while the other two hurriedly scrammed from the place before Soujin said anything to them.

Looking towards his granddaughter, Jun Zhenxian sighed in relief when he noticed that her breathing was still normal. She might look weak now, but she will surely recover from this. He felt really pained to see the girl hurt so much like that.

Soujin picked a seat and looked at Jun Hua from that place. The battle was still in the middle, there was no sign of it will reach the end soon. But he already wanted for the war to end soon, so he could spend his time with her.

Soujin smiled wryly. Even at this time, he seemed to only think about how to end the war quicker in order to spend more time with the little girl.

"Soujin," Jun Zhenxian said without looking at him. "Are you serious about my granddaughter?"

Soujin didn't expect Jun Zhenxian to ask him that question out of the blue, but he was still calm. If that question was directed to him before the imperial party at Ming Kingdom, he won't be able to answer it. However, now he already has the answer.

"I do."

Two words said with complete determination. Jun Zhenxian sighed deeply. Should he let his granddaughter in his hand? He was already old and he can no longer match with the little lass wits and mind anymore. It will be better if she has someone replacing him to protect her and treasure her.

"I see," Jun Zhenxian reaction was a dull one. He should have expected so when he found out that this young man invited Jun Hua to see his soldiers on the border. No rational man would want his secret out, except for the person he trusted the most.

And that person for Soujin is Jun Hua.

Should he tell him about the true plan of Jun family? Jun Hua didn't seem to leak out the fact that she was Jun Min to him yet. He didn't want to interfere with his granddaughter love life like he did for his daughter.

"If you hurt her, I will chase you even to the end of the world."

Those words were the same as accepting their relationship. Soujin felt happy, but he didn't show it outside as he replied with a solemn face.

"She is the only person I love in my lifetime, I would never hurt her."

Hearing that declaration, Jun Zhenxian almost choked on the air.
