Chapter 99: Another Visit



These were the words written in the letter when Fang Jinxiu was invited to come to the capital.

It was brought up again more than half a year later, and it seemed that this moment was the real inquiry.

Fang Jinxiu rolled her eyes at her.

"You've thought it through, what else should I think about?" She said, turning around and walking inside, "Liu'er."

The loud shout startled Liu'er who was busy in the kitchen.

"What are you yelling for?" She poked her head out unhappily and said, "You should buy yourself a girl, and stop calling me all the time."

Fang Jinxiu glared at her.

"Pack your lady's luggage," she said.

Liu'er stared in surprise, and then she saw Miss Jun coming out.

"Miss, are you ready to pack?" she asked.

Miss Jun nodded with a smile.

"Yes, let's go somewhere else and take a look," she said.

"Yes, yes."

Liu'er has always been happy to support the young lady's decision. Upon hearing this, she ran happily into the house without asking any questions.

Miss Jun stood next to Fang Jinxiu.

"No matter what happens, you can trust King Hyun of the capital," she said, "Chengyu will also be watching. Don't try to be stubborn. There is nothing in this world that cannot be abandoned except people."

Fang Jinxiu nodded.

"I know, I'm not that stupid. I'm just working as a bookkeeper to get paid, not to risk my life," she said.

"That's right." Miss Jun said with a smile.

Fang Jinxiu suddenly burst out laughing.

"Are you sure you want to go back?" she asked, raising her eyebrows.

It's rare to see her smile, and she looked so gloating. Miss Jun looked at her in confusion.

"Will your mother-in-law block your door and scold you every day after you go back?" Fang Jinxiu said with a smile.

Mother-in-law?

Miss Jun was startled, and then she suddenly remembered who she was talking about.

Ning Yunzhao announced in public that he was engaged to her. Such a sensation must have spread back to Yangcheng. Moreover, this matter was of great importance. It was impossible to tell the Ning family that the news was fake before Ning Yunzhao and Ning Yan arrived home.

Even if Ning Yunzhao went home and told Madam Ning in person that it was a lie, Madam Ning would definitely not give up.

This was a perfect opportunity for Ning Yunzhao to propose marriage, but he was hindered by this engagement that no one knew when it would be announced to be fake. Madam Ning would be furious.

"Don't worry." She smiled, and Jinxiu winked at her playfully, "She can't scold me, maybe I can get more money from her this time."

The last time Madam Ning scolded Miss Jun in person, Miss Jun got five thousand taels.

Fang Jinxiu couldn't help laughing when she thought of that time.

Seeing the two girls standing in the yard and laughing happily, Chen Qi and Shopkeeper Liu also breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's it, I'll trouble you two from now on." Shopkeeper Liu said with a smile.

Chen Qi chuckled.

"I will try not to make you, Manager Liu, work too hard in the future," he said with some sincerity.

Shopkeeper Liu smiled.

"Then I will go and prepare for the return trip." He said, also beaming with joy, "The young master will surely be very happy to hear this news."

The carriage stopped in front of Prince Huai's mansion. Compared to the last time when it was close to a place related to Lu Qianhu, the driver was not so nervous.

With Ning Yunzhao coming forward to acknowledge Miss Jun as his fiancée, and Lu Qianhu repeatedly obstructing Miss Jun from practicing medicine, the two of them have become enemies. Not to mention coming to Prince Huai's Mansion once, even if they go to Lu's residence again, they are not afraid that someone will think the two of them are having an affair.

Miss Jun was a little hesitant.

I wonder if the door of Prince Huai's Mansion will be opened for her if she goes straight there this time.

If that doesn't work, I'll have to trouble King Xian again.

In fact, she didn't really want King Hyeon to be involved with Gu-jin. After all, King Hyeon himself was surviving carefully.

While she was thinking, Miss Jun had already stood in front of the gate of Prince Huai's Mansion. After a moment of hesitation, she raised her hand and knocked on the door.

The door opened.

"It's Miss Jun. Please come in." The doorman said respectfully.

It's still possible?

Didn't Lu Yunqi order me not to visit?

Or is it too late?

Miss Jun was surprised, and returned the greeting to the doorman with a smile before walking in.

"Miss Jun, please go to the palace and wait for a moment. His Highness is writing now. Let us go and inform him." The eunuch who came over to greet him said with a smile.

He's writing. Jiuqi is the child who is closest to Mr. Gu and is very repulsive to himself. Now that he has the excuse of writing, he probably won't come over for a while.

Miss Jun smiled.

"Thanks, Uncle Lao," she said.

The eunuch asked a young eunuch to accompany Miss Jun into the hall, while he himself hurried to the back.

Miss Jun was in no hurry to follow the eunuch and walked slowly. As a result, just as she stepped into the hall, she heard footsteps behind her, as if someone was running quickly. Miss Jun turned around subconsciously and saw Jiuqi running towards her.

Running.

He ran into the hall in almost the blink of an eye.

Miss Jun looked at him, as if she had returned to the past, when she returned from other places to celebrate the New Year. Every time she entered the palace gate, Jiuqi was the first one to run out to greet her.

From staggering at one, walking steadily at two, to running at three, he was always the first one to appear in her sight.

Miss Jun looked at the boy standing at the door, but she couldn't see his expression because his back was facing the light.

He stared at her, seeming to be expecting and yet afraid of something.

Miss Jun's eyes warmed up, and she almost subconsciously turned around and took a step forward, extending her hand at the same time.

The boy standing at the door seemed to be stepping on a slingshot and flew straight over.

This throw crossed time and space, and Miss Jun caught him steadily in her hand, picked him up and spun him around.

My vision was blurred, but I could hear the clear and joyful voice of a child, which seemed to come and go from far away.

"elder sister!"

"elder sister!"

Sister, you're back!

Sister, Jiuqi misses you so much!

This action happened almost instantly, and even the person who made the action seemed to have no time to react.

Moreover, Jiuqi is not a child of three or four years old, but Miss Jun is still fifteen or sixteen years old.

With this sudden throw, hug and turn, the slim Miss Jun staggered a little.

Jiuqi also stood on tiptoe to support himself on the ground.

The two of them were in a stalemate for a while, staring into each other's eyes in the bright sunlight.

The virtual light faded away, and the two people standing so close to each other could see each other's faces clearly.

Although the woman in front of him was not a stranger, she was still very unfamiliar to Jiuqi.

The child's face showed embarrassment because he had lost his composure in front of a stranger, and there was also a hint of confusion, as if he was puzzled as to why he had done such a thing.

Miss Jun was also a little embarrassed because of her own behavior.

Children are indeed sensitive. After beating him up last time, Jiuqi has really realized the similarities between himself and Princess Jiuling.

Children don’t think as much as adults, so they just do things based on their feelings.

But Jiuqi can rely on his feelings, but she can't.

The two of them were in a stalemate, and the atmosphere in the hall became strange.
