Jun Hua merely walks near a batch of flowers with Yamin stays next to her. With her high martial arts, she could hear what her grandfather and Lin Tang talking about.

"What is it, Prime Minister Lin Tang?"

"I was thinking about letting Jun Hua into our family residence."

Jun Zhenxian smile turned cold. "After what you have done, you still have the courage to ask for such things?"

Lin Tang keeps his face calm. "It is one of her mother wishes to see her daughter raised as a good noble. If she stays at Jun family, do you think you can teach all of it to her?"

Jun Zhenxian knows that staying here won't help Jun Hua much. He's unfamiliar with girls conduct and Madam Mu couldn't possibly stay here forever. At school, what she could learn is limited. If she could gain lesson from Lin family who's famous as a scholar family, she could learn much more. But he definitely doesn't want his daughter to suffer.

Jun Zhenxian glared at Lin Tang. "Can you promise me you won't mistreat her?"

Lin Tang nodded firmly. "I won't. She will get a better treatment."

"What makes you changes your decision suddenly?" Jun Zhenxian sneered. "Don't tell me that after you see how excellent my grandson is, you decide to change your mind?"

That's only part of the reason. Lin Tang has heard that Jun Min goes back from the border just to meet his sister. Then just now he could faintly see that Jun Min is blocking his view from Jun Hua. That has shown that Jun Min is a protective brother and he would definitely care for her.

His target is obviously Jun Min and if Jun Min cared greatly for his sister, getting into Jun Hua good side will be good. He has already making plans in his mind to get Jun Min into his sides but for the first step he needs some excuse to get closer with them.

Lin Tang didn't answer. Before now, he wants to stay away from this family as far as possible. But seeing such an excellent young man, he can't help himself. Beside, the emperor hasn't made any move and let Jun Min gained the glory from the test.

Jun Zhenxian knows that he cannot answer such a question easily. He needs to talk with Jun hua first about her views.

"I will tell her later. If she's interested, I will tell you later."

Lin Tang merely nodded. He still needs to observe the situation first. After saying his farewell, he sees the two young people in the garden. Jun Min is pointing to one flower and Jun Hua is clapping her hands. Those two looks harmonious. After a few seconds, he left.

"Miss, he has left."

"I know. Yamin, you tell Madam Mu to rest early, I cannot continue tonight. There are some things I need to talk with my grandfather."

"Yes Miss."

Jun Hua walks towards the living room and sits in front of him. Jun Zhenxian stared at his granddaughter and sighed.

"You heard it?"

"I do, this prime minister is highly cunning," Jun Hua smiled. "He wants to get on Jun Min side since he has already confirmed something."

"What is it?"

"It is my existence and my care for 'Jun Hua'."

Jun Zhenxian nodded. Some people are already suspicious when he announces that he adopted a grandson. They would send people or inquire about Jun Min. Only Lin Tang seems to hold himself back until recently.

"Why do you think Lin Tang chooses to move now?"

"It's because my appearance at the academy. One of his daughters is there and she must have a deep impression of me," Jun Hua smiled.

Jun Zhenxian can imagine it. Even he himself almost got a heart attack when he sees how Jun Hua dressed today. If not because he had often seen the similar but slightly less stunning than her face in the past, he would have been frozen in place for a long time.

"There's no need to worry. He won't change his decision he has made. Although it is possible that the emperor may target our family, Lin Tang won't suffer any losses since 'Jun Hua' is only a weak girl," Jun Zhenxian said.

"The emperor won't make a more," Jun Hua said confidently.

"Why?"

"It's because he still needs my skill."

Jun Zhenxian is sure that his granddaughter must have done something that she didn't tell him. But the little lass keep it to herself. Jun Zhenxian won't press the matter any longer.

"Will you accept Lin Tang offer?"

Jun Hua looks at her grandfather. "Not now. There's still something I need to do. After that, I will accept his offer."

"What is it?"

"Grandfather doesn't have to worry. I won't do anything dangerous. It's just I need to keep the balance."

Jun Zhenxian only sighed. He doesn't understand what his granddaughter is planning. Regardless, she has shocked the whole capital just by appearing today. Jun Zhenxian sighed in defeat. There will be countless people coming to inquire about it from him.

Jun Hua didn't stay there any longer and returned to her room and sleep.

...

Lin family residence.

"You want to observe the situation first? How about your claim that Jun Min doesn't exist?" Chun Maora glared at her husband fiercely.

Lin Tang didn't bother to look at her. "He does exist, but he's a thorn in many people eyes."

"So what? How many men do you think can be so capable at young age?" Chun Maora is feeling highly aggrieved.

"He's of low birth," Lin Tang said calmly. Although that's what he said, deep inside he knows that with the talent Jun Min has shown, even the emperor would feel regret to dispose him. Jun Min appearance is a thorn that appeared at the most unexpected time and at the same time a piece that disrupts the balance.

Lin Tang stared at his wife. "I will talk to the emperor about it. You just need to wait here."

"What?" Chun Maora doesn't understand why this matter has to be brought to the emperor. But Lin Tang already shifted his attention. She could only wait patiently.
