The besties traveled through the book together, and the prince and general became abandoned husbands
Chapter 253 Finding a Way
Xu Junjun did not accept Cangyue's kind advice.
She felt that if she had a little bit of common sense, she would not do such a thing as sleeping with Jun Xiaochen.
Unless she doesn't want to live anymore.
After returning from the pharmacy, Xu Junjun watched the colorful sky gradually darken, and thought over and over again in his mind about the upcoming conversation.
In the end, she figured out some ideas and went straight to Jun Xiaochen's courtyard to wait for people.
There were not many affairs in the court today. Jun Xiaochen dismounted at the gate of the palace, and the lights in the palace were just beginning to light up.
As soon as he arrived outside the courtyard, the guard came forward and reported:
"Master, Miss Xu is waiting for you in the courtyard."
Jun Xiaochen was surprised:
"How long has she been waiting?"
"Almost an hour."
The guard told the truth.
Jun Xiaochen nodded:
"The king knows."
Turning his head to look at Wei Dong who was following behind him, Jun Xiaochen said calmly:
"You go down first. In two hours, come to the study and wait for me."
"Yes, master."
Wei Dong clasped his fists and nodded, but did not follow Jun Xiaochen into the yard.
The candlelight in the room was bright.
As you approach the door, you can see that familiar figure.
Jun Xiaochen glanced at the blood stains on the corner of his robe, hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.
Xu Junjun was sitting by the window thinking and drinking tea when she heard footsteps and looked up.
The tall figure of the man came into view. Xu Junjun put down the tea that had long since cooled, looked up and said:
"You're not too late today. There's just enough time for us to talk."
Jun Xiaochen raised his eyebrows when he heard this. Looking at Xu Junjun's calm face, he inexplicably felt that tonight would not be so smooth.
"Let's have dinner first.
You change your clothes first, and after dinner, we'll go to the study to talk."
Standing up and leaving the room, Xu Junjun handed the space and time to Jun Xiaochen.
After she left, Jun Xiaochen ordered someone to bring hot water and immediately summoned the personal guard who had accompanied her out of the house today to ask questions.
After listening to the report from the personal guards, Jun Xiaochen realized that Xu Junjun might have discovered that he had sent people to monitor the Qilin Guards.
The Qilin Guard's man named Chen Yu is no less capable than Wei Dong.
It would be disappointing if he couldn't find anyone from the Regent's Palace.
Having a rough idea of what Xu Junjun was going to talk about later, Jun Xiaochen felt a little relieved. He took a bath, changed his clothes, put on a white brocade robe, ordered someone to serve food, and then invited Xu Junjun over.
Xu Junjun came very quickly. When she entered the room, she saw Jun Xiaochen wearing white clothes for the first time today, and her eyes widened.
Jun Xiaochen has an upright and outstanding figure, and with his naturally handsome face, he usually wears dark robes. His majestic, calm and imposing appearance has already attracted Xu Junjun's attention.
But unexpectedly, he looked even more dazzling in white clothes. Looking at the muscular outline hidden under his robe, Xu Junjun swallowed his saliva spinelessly.
A hint of smile flashed across Jun Xiaochen's eyes, as if he was very satisfied with Xu Junjun's expression at the moment.
The servant brought dinner. The two of them ate quietly, each with their own thoughts. Then they rinsed their mouths and washed their hands, then stood up and went to the study one after the other.
Today, the silence between the two was somewhat unusual.
Jun Xiaochen watched every word and action of Xu Junjun, his eyes were deep but very peaceful.
The candles in the study were lit one by one, and the maid served tea and snacks and carefully left the room.
Jun Xiaochen did not sit behind the desk as usual. Instead, he lifted his robe and sat next to Xu Junjun, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Neither of them spoke, as if they were engaging in a psychological warfare. Whoever spoke first would lose confidence.
Finally, Jun Xiaochen realized that if he didn't speak up, someone would be suffocated like a pufferfish. He fiddled with the tea lid with his long fingers, looked at the clear tea in the cup, and asked in a gentle voice:
"Did you enjoy your trip today?"
A hint of unnaturalness flashed across Xu Junjun's face. She subconsciously straightened her back, picked up a piece of dessert and took a bite.
"It's okay. I'm just a little tired of the dishes in the restaurant. I won't go there next time."
Jun Xiaochen chuckled and turned to look at her:
"is it?"
"Yeah. No matter how good something is, you can't stand eating it every day and thinking about it every day. If you get tired of it, try another place."
Xu Junjun didn't understand the meaning of Jun Xiaochen's words. Thinking about what he would ask later, she nodded and said "hmm". When she heard the faint laugh coming out of the man's throat beside her, Xu Junjun realized it belatedly and turned to look at him.
"why are you laughing?"
Jun Xiaochen was dressed in white, and his usually cold amber eyes softened with a smile, his true color was like a spring morning, captivating and charming.
Xu Junjun cleared her throat and tried hard to maintain a serious expression on her face, but her expression was instantly broken when she met Jun Xiaochen's smiling eyes.
"Jun Xiaochen, I want to ask you something."
Xu Junjun doesn't like to beat around the bush. Since the person is already right in front of her, it's better to just say a few words and get things done.
"You said."
Jun Xiaochen listened attentively, waiting for Xu Junjun to continue asking questions.
Xu Junjun stared into his amber eyes and said directly:
"Did you find out as soon as Chen Liu and the others arrived at Tianqi?"
Jun Xiaochen corrected:
"I didn't find out right after they arrived. My people found out about them only after they had met you twice."
Facing Xu Junjun's wide eyes, Jun Xiaochen joked:
"Jun'er, don't think everyone is as innocent as you.
You go to the same restaurant seven out of ten times when you go out of the house. As long as my men are not stupid, they can find the clues.
Don't worry, when I first learned that the Great Saint Qilin Guards had entered Tianqi, I didn't order anyone to take action, and now, I won't touch them either."
Xu Junjun stared at him for a long while without saying a word, until the wind blowing in through the window wrapped around her fingertips, and she felt a hint of coolness. Then she rubbed her hands together and spoke:
"When Chen Liu and the others found me, that was when I hated you the most.
If I hadn't been suffering from the Zimu Dan poison, I would have escaped with them long ago."
Jun Xiaochen nodded:
"I know.
It's not surprising.
But I’m glad you’re still with me.”
Xu Junjun raised her eyes and met the man's smiling eyes. Suddenly, she felt that there were some questions that she didn't need to ask.
She seemed to already know the answer.
Noticing that the corners of Xu Junjun's lips relaxed and her brows became relaxed, Jun Xiaochen's smile grew wider, and he felt that he had found the key to unlock someone's heart.
Although the person in front of me is a woman, she is as cheerful and tenacious as a man.
Although he looks fierce, he has a kind and warm heart.
When getting along with her, you must learn to show weakness.
She is soft-hearted and does not tolerate harshness, and using softness to overcome hardness is the best strategy.
When it comes to relationships, Jun Xiaochen is a complete novice. As soon as he gets a glimpse of the secrets, he wants to test them out:
"You said yesterday that Cang Qing had the Mother-Child Gu. I'll call him over to ask about it later.
If he is unwilling to give in, you don't have to go to the Shen tribe in person. I will arrange someone to negotiate with the tribe leader.
Let the Shen Clan send a pair of mother and child Gu to the Imperial Capital."
Jun Xiaochen had been staring at Xu Junjun. When he heard this, the surprise and hesitation on Xu Junjun's face did not escape his eyes, making the dark light in his eyes even brighter.
Jun Xiaochen considered the matter so carefully that Xu Junjun could not find any fault with him. However, she felt that accepting his kindness was too much, and the two of them became more deeply involved.
After much thought, Xu Junjun said:
"Otherwise, don't show up yet, I'll go ask tomorrow.
If he really doesn't want to, will you come forward again?"
Xu Junjun didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that as soon as she opened her mouth, the temperature in the room suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees. A cool breeze blew around her neck, making her shrink her neck involuntarily.
