Flowers Bloom from Battlefield

69 Their Gap is Truly Big

Fan Lanying didn\'t continue to bother her brother anymore. She readied her stance with a grin. "Since Big Brother has returned, let\'s spar."

Fan Ying laughed. "You haven\'t change at all."

The two of them moved forward and started attacking. Looking at that battle remind Jun Hua with her battle against Soujin which she still hasn\'t won until now. After fighting for some time, Fan Lanying finally lost.

"You have grown stronger now, Big Brother," Fan Lanying grinned. "Just last year, I still could win against you."

Fan Ying smiled. "The battle helped me and that includes the hellish training from Young General Jun."

"What kind of training?"

"You wouldn\'t want to know…"

Jun Hua tilted her head in wonder. Does that considered hellish training? The one she told them to give their soldier is only half of her training. If she gives them her whole set of training, she doubts that they could survive.

Fan Lanying nodded. "Come on Jun Hua, you will be staying here tonight. I will show you your room first."

When did she agree to stay here for the night? Seeing the eager Fan Lanying, Jun Hua feels defeated. That little girl didn\'t tell her anything about it. She must have planned this beforehand to let her stay the night. Well, since she has time, why not?

The room Fan Lanying prepared is not really big, but it\'s beautiful. She has prepared for everything Jun Hua may need. This room is enough for her.

After that, Fan Lanying asks her to eat with them. The food they prepared is many and Jun Hua feels a bit overwhelmed by their kindness.

"This is too much, Madam Fan," Jun Hua said.

Madam Fan just laughed. "Eat to your fill. Don\'t be shy."

"Yeah, you need to eat a lot. Your body is still so small Jun Hua," Fan Lanying teased.

Jun Hua faces grow dark. She knows that she\'s shorter than Fan Lanying but it must be because of her gene. She had eaten a lot! It\'s not her fault that she\'s only 1. 5 meters added with a few centimeters high…

"There are a lot of dishes, which one do you like?"

Jun Hua pointed to a few dishes. Fan Lanying clapped her hands at Jun Hua choice. "Your taste is similar with me! Next time, we can share our food."

"Sure."

This time eating is truly noisy but Jun Hua likes it. Normally nobles will not talk during eating since it\'s considered impolite but here, Fan Lanying loves to eat while talking. Jun Hua doesn\'t like the silent too after all she used to eat with her soldier while talking and joking. Now that she hadn\'t gone to the battlefield, she somehow missed them.

After the eating session, Jun Hua returned to her room to take some rests. She calls Yamin.

"Is there any new captain named Fan Ying in our ranks?"

"Yes, he\'s under Yabei. He joined around 5 months ago not long after you win the battle and they opened slot for soldier from other squad. He comes then and after the test and all, he officially joined 3 months ago."

Jun Hua remembers that her people have been recruiting people again from other place. At that time, they were targeting talented people who are being suppressed by their superior and cannot advance.

"Where did Fan Ying come?"

"He comes from Fei Yu squad. Fei Yu is one of the 1000-men squad captains under Lan Ping. When Fan Ying comes, he\'s merely a 10-men squad captain."

Jun Hua nodded. She paused for a moment. "Why did he not stay under his father?"

"He was but there is some incident which caused him to be transferred and stay under Fei Yu. This one doesn\'t know the detail and it needs more investigation."

"There\'s no need. Yamin, you switched place with me tomorrow."

"Yes Miss."

Jun Hua lay on her bed as she thinks about what Yamin told her. She remembers that there are some dispute between Lan and Fan family. Her lips curled up, she would never expect that their dispute will be this fierce. It seems like their enemy is the same.

The next morning, Fan Lanying only asks \'Jun Hua\' to accompany her in the training. That morning Jun Hua comes to the Fan family residence as Jun Min.

"Young General Jun comes?" Fan Lanying almost dropped her dagger. Every time that man comes, she would be shocked, especially at the academy where the girl loves to flock around him. She had to admit though, that person is really handsome.

Fan Ying put his sword down. He stared outside and goes towards the living room. He never got the chance to meet the boy because of his low rank. Now that the chance has come, he won\'t waste it.

Jun Hua smiled at the warm welcome from Madam Fan. She noticed that Fan Ying had come. The man is looking impatient. Fan Ying stared at Jun Hua feeling highly surprised. Jun Min is shorter than his sister and she doesn\'t look strong with her slender body. With Jun Hua concealed her aura, she doesn\'t look any different from ordinary people.

"Fan Ying greeted Young General Jun."

Jun Hua nodded. "I\'m here to pick up my sister. That is if she has finished playing."

Fan Lanying and \'Jun Hua\' appeared. Fan Lanying pouted. "Before you left, can you have a spar with me? I want to know your skill."

"Lanying!" Madam Fan is surprised by her daughter boldness.

Jun Hua laughed. "I better not. I don\'t want to bully girls."

Fan Lanying pouted, but she cannot possibly force Jun Hua to fight with her. On her side, Fan Ying look towards Jun Hua and strengthened his resolve.

"Then, what about me? May I be as bold to ask for a spar?"

Madam Fan feels like knocking both of her children head. How come they become really bold in such a short time? To actually challenge a general for sparing, how brave they are!

Jun Hua looks towards Fan Ying. She had indeed hoped for this development.

"Don\'t say that I bullied you."

"Thank you."

With that the four of them headed towards the training room once more. Jun Hua picked one of the wooden swords and stand before Fan Ying. In that instant, Fan Ying felt like he is facing a big mountain. The boy in front of him seems so big and unapproachable. He inhaled deeply and started to attack.

Jun Hua didn\'t face his attack head on and easily escape from his range even without moving the sword in her hand. After dodging twice, she twisted her body and thrust forward, her sword stopped right in front of Fan Ying neck. The man didn\'t dare to move as he stares at the wooden sword pointing towards his neck.

Jun Hua put the sword down. "Had it been a real fight, you will be death."

Their gap is truly big.
