<h4>148 A Song</h4>
For Jun Hua to stay inside her room for an entire day is truly a big hurdle. She wants to go out, but she still needs to keep her acting, so she stays inside her room, reading her book. After a few hours of reading, she put the book aside.
She can''t stand reading a book for an entire day without going out at all. Usually, even when she needs to read a lot of books, she still has her training session. Now that she is ''sick'', she had to stay inside the room for the whole day. This has been going for a few days and she doesn''t want to keep thiszy attitude anymore.
"Xia, is there anything interesting out there?"
Xia rolled her eyes secretly. What should she tell her? If she were to tell the gossips from the capital, would Jun Hua feel pleased with what she hears? Xia is not sure that Jun Hua is one that would get interested with that kind of thing.
But, seeing that Jun Hua is still staring at her, she tried her best to tell the story from the people in the capital. It didn''t take long for Jun Hua to feel bored.
"It''s so boring. I want to go outside…"
"…"
Xia really hopes that Xiao Yun and Madam Xie are still here, so they could share some ideas with her. Xia doesn''t know what she should do in order to make Jun Hua didn''t feel bored inside the house.
The n is originated from the girl, but she forgets to think that she still needs to act like a sick girl for the next few days which makes her feels really bored. Despite her duty as a general, Jun Hua is still a 15 year old girl inside. Why should she always force herself to do her work and didn''t enjoy her life for once?
Xia quickly thinks for other things that she can do in this time, "Miss, what about learning music?"
Jun Hua face nked for a moment. She had forgotten about her lesson in zither. For these pasts few months, she hadn''t touched that zither at all. Even though she does have one, she rarely practices and going to the war had made herpletely forgot about it.
Looking at the zither by the corner of her room, Jun Hua pursed her lips. She still remembers how poorly she ys the zither in front of the others. She doesn''t like ying that instrument.
Standing up from her bed, she reaches out to her cupboard before taking out a flute*. The wind instrument size is not big and really suitable for her hand. Going from the appearance, it is an old instrument which makes the color fades slightly.
Xia eyes lit up when she sees the flute. She had seen the instrument when Jun Hua firstes to this ce. The girl once likes to y the music for her mother. But ever since the death of Jun Saya, she hadn''t touched it again.
Jun Hua caressed the flute. This musical instrument makes her remember of her mother. At that time, no matter how tired she is, she would spend a short time before sleeping to y a single song for her mother. This is her habit from when she is staying in the vige to keep her mother happy and didn''t think about her family.
Putting the tip of it to her lips, she starts to blow air to the musical instrument. Her eyes are closed. Her hands yed the tone agilely and beautiful notese out. By the side, Xia is rooted on her ce as she cannot believe how good Jun Hua ys the musical instrument.
"Miss…"
The Miss she knows is someone who didn''t know anything about zither and the way to y it. Even she cannot hold the zither correctly until the teacher told her. But, for this musical instrument, she had yed it for years to her mother. Even though she hadn''t yed it again, her fingers still remember it and they could do it really well.
When the song finished, Jun Hua opened her eyes. The first thing she sees is that man had returned…
"Why are you sneaking to my window again?" Jun Hua said with annoyed tone.
Unbeknownst to her, Soujin hade to her window andes inside the room again. By the side, Xia mouth is hanging open and she hastily runs away from the room, leaving Jun Hua alone because when Soujin staring at her, she could feel that her presence is unneeded. In her heart, she hopes her Miss won''t me her for going away like that…
Thankfully, Jun Hua didn''t put the me on her because she knows that Soujin gaze is powerful, at least in a sense. In front of people far weaker than him, they won''tst even for a second if Soujin is looking at them with displeased mood.
"You y beautifully," Soujin said, "Why don''t you show it to the others?"
Jun Hua snorted. "I only y this to my mother. I don''t want to show it to others."
The flute holds precious memories for her of her days with her mother. Whenever she ys music, her mother would smile towards her and pat her head. That was the reason for her to continue ying the flute. After her mother passed away, she cannot bring herself to touch the musical instrument again until today.
Originally, she doesn''t want anyone to see her ying it, but Soujin just had toe here without invitation, again. She feels that she needs to retrain her bodyguard again because they fail to inform her about Soujin arrival.
If her soldiers were to know the tragedy that would befall them, they would surely curse Soujin for going into Jun Hua''s room without permission.
"You shouldn''t havee here, General Soujin," Jun Hua looks towards the man.
Soujin didn''t bother answering the little girl. "You should rest more. Falling into water might make you sick."
"I have mostly recovered," Jun Hua retorted.
Soujin knows that she is bing more irritated by his presence. He onlyes because of that fine melody which makes him impressed. After seeing her ying so beautifully, he cannot help but teasing the girl a bit. Seeing that she is starting to get impatient, he chooses to stop.
"Alright. Don''t forget about the festival."
Jun Hua res at the window as she looks back towards the flute. Carefully save it back, she turns to her bed. Just what is that man wanted bying here? She can''t understand what is in his mind.
