177 She is a Good Girl

Soujin didn\'t expect that Jun Hua would be so blunt in her answer. But, mulling it for a second makes him notices that he only asked whether she cares or not. It doesn\'t mean that Jun Hua likes him. Though for him, having her care for him is already a good thing and that makes him really happy.

"Do you want to get out from here?" Soujin creased his brow. That good grandfather of mine is already secretly watching them. Maybe he should have challenged him to a good spar sometime in the future.

Jun Hua knows the reason, but she doesn\'t want to go on the streets. "No, here is good enough."

"We are being watched."

"By your family? But, we won\'t do anything inappropriate, won\'t we?"

"Do you want to?"

Jun Hua glared at him. "Are you not being a gentleman again, General Soujin?"

Soujin laughed. Probably, he did not. His mood has improved after waking up and now he\'s waiting for a good time to launch an attack towards that Lan family. After hurting someone important to him, there is no way he would let them out.

But, looking at the girl beside him, he will not do it right away. It can wait.

"Have you eaten?"

"I have, but if you want to cook for me, I will gladly eat it," Soujin smiled.

"…"

This man is starting to be shameless. That was a blatant flirting, but somehow, Jun Hua doesn\'t mind it. She wonders why that is too.

"Lend me your kitchen."

"Sure, come with me."

At the back, not only Nanglong Souka is watching them secretly, even Qin Shie is there. They wanted to know about what the two of them will be doing. To their disappointment, the two of them only talking, but then they walk towards the kitchen.

The kitchen in Nanglong family is big. The family only consists of 3 people, but the size of the kitchen is really big. It is likely that there are times when the family has more member than now.

"What do you want to eat?" Jun Hua asked.

"Anything you cook."

"…"

Can\'t you at least pick something? Jun Hua feels helpless against this guy mouth. After he had recovered, he just becomes more annoying.

"Should I make some dishes for your family?"

Soujin brows creased. "Just my mother is alright."

Jun Hua is stunned. What is happening between him and his grandfather to the point he keeps on making things difficult for that old man? That was not her business, but she doesn\'t want to be that bias.

"I will make enough for four people."

"You don\'t have to care about him," Soujin said. "He\'s just an annoying old man."

And you\'re an annoying young man. That was what Jun Hua wanted to say the most. She held back though since it\'s inappropriate. Looking at the ingredients, she started to make some dishes with Soujin helped her. It\'s more correct to say that she forces Soujin to help cutting the ingredients she wanted to use.

Soujin can barely cook anything. He just knows some basic. As for cutting, he knows how to use blade and knife is not that much different for him. It\'s just he feels helpless because the martial arts he learns for killing people is now used for cutting the vegetable…

If Jun Hua knows what he thinks, she would undoubtedly laugh at him. It\'s not like she didn\'t have the same feeling when she is making embroidery and try that.

"Your cutting is really good."

"I have used sword for a long time," Soujin answered.

Sword and knife is a bit different, though. Jun Hua herself is not sure that she can use sword and knife alike if not for her experience in cooking back in her childhood. Maybe that was the difference in their skill.

Jun Hua didn\'t take a long time for cooking and soon, a set of lunch is ready.

"Where is the dining room?"

"It\'s not far. Just let the servants carried it. I will call my mother and grandfather."

Soujin walks to where both his mother and grandfather are hiding to watch them. Seeing him come, they laughed sheepishly.

"Let\'s eat. Jun Hua had cooked enough for all of us."

Qin Shie nodded excitedly. "Sure, let\'s go."

Nanglong Souka is stunned which makes him a bit late compared with the other two. He hurriedly followed them to the dinner room. There, Jun Hua had finished ordered the servants to put the plate down.

"You can cook?" Qin Shie wanted to know. The food on the tables looks good.

Jun Hua nodded. "I know a bit."

"What are you waiting for? Let\'s eat!"

Nanglong Soujin wanted to smack his shameless grandfather. Can\'t he at least give some pleasantries before rushing to the food? He looks towards Jun Hua only to find the other smiling.

"Don\'t mind my grandfather. He doesn\'t have any sense of manner."

"Watch your mouth, you brat!"

Jun Hua laughed. "It\'s alright. My grandfather is only a bit better."

"Don\'t compare me with that man!"

The atmosphere on the dining room is warm with Nanglong Souka becomes the target of their banter. That old man had to face the two youngsters attacking him which he cannot retort back. On the side, Qin Shie didn\'t join in the attack, but she didn\'t help the old man too.

Despite talking while eating is not a norm, there are none of them who feel uncomfortable. The foods are good, the atmosphere is warm, and it is really fun.

After they had finished, Jun Hua excused herself. Soujin insisted on accompany her to the gate and the girl cannot refuse. The two older people gaped at the sight of Soujin insisting to accompany a girl. Did the sun rise from the west today?

When the two of them have walked out from the room, Qin Shie looks towards Nanglong Souka. "That girl is really good." No other girl could make Soujin react that way and she is a good little chef.

Nanglong Souka reluctantly nodded. He had been conquered with the food. Despite he still doesn\'t like the Jun family, he had to admit that the girl is smart, knowledgeable, and not useless. Besides, this is the first time he saw his grandson acting like that…

"Thank you for coming here, Jun Hua."

Jun Hua nodded. She bid her farewell then returned to her residence. The way Soujin addresses her… it\'s not too close, but it doesn\'t sound like a stranger anymore.

Jun Zhenxian had been waiting for her. "How is it?"

"It\'s fun."

Jun Hua didn\'t say anything else and only one word.Jun Zhenxian didn\'t ask anything too. If she doesn\'t want to tell, he won\'t force her.

At the Nanglong residence, Soujin is still staring outside.

"Young Master?"

"Lou, start the attack."

"Yes."
