Upon arriving home, Lin Yuan walked absent-mindedly. Her mind was still occupied by Jun Min's face to the point she didn't realize that Lin San had appeared in front of her.

"Sister Lin Yuan, what are you doing?" Lin San eyed her sister suspiciously. The usually tactful Lin Yuan was dazed all day long to the point that she didn't even hear her. In the end, Lin Yuan's maid had to nudge her Miss to bring her back in reality.

"Ah, I'm sorry sister Lin San. There are some things on my mind," Lin Yuan hurriedly apologized. She didn't want to get into trouble especially from Lin San.

Lin San wanted to know what made Lin Yuan look so dazed, so she asked her servants to investigate about it. In less than few minutes, she had come to know the reason.

"Jun Min appeared?" Lin San asked in astonishment. She had heard about this name, and knew that he was the adoptive brother of Jun Hua. Her father once said that Jun Min was merely a fictional character the Jun family made to increase their soldiers' morale. But now it seemed that the rumors were wrong.

"Yes Miss. Jun Min appeared on the academy to pick up his sister."

"That's impossible!" Lin San hurriedly stood up and ran towards her mother's room. Chun Maora was sitting there with her servants by her side. They were telling Chun Maora some gossip in the capital to make her entertained.

Chun Maora lifted her head when she saw her daughter.

"San'er, is there anything wrong?"

"Mother, Jun Min appeared in the academy."

"That's impossible! Lin Tang told me that Jun Min is not existed," Chun Maora brows creased. When she heard about how excellent Jun Min was, she wanted to get to know him. If not for Lin Tang's insistence that Jun Min was merely a figure that the Jun family created, she would have long gone to the Jun family and asked to see the boy.

"But it's true! Even Lin Yuan keeps on daydreaming because of him!" Lin San was deeply jealous. She wanted to see Jun Min too. From the start, they were all doubting the existence of Jun Min, but who would actually dare to lie so blatantly to the emperor?

"Let me ask Lin Tang first!"

That day, Lin Tang had to face his wife's barrage of questions. His eye held suspicion. He had heard about Jun Min, yet at the time he never believed them. The Jun family was already on the decline, how was it possible to nurture a general in mere years? But somehow they had successfully done so.

The past few years, he had wanted to meet the folks from the Jun family to see whether they're putting a façade or not. However, he never got the change to do so. Now that Jun Min had surprisingly appeared before those n.o.ble girls, it made him want to believe that the Jun family was indeed lucky. Regardless, he wanted to be certain about it.

"Prepare a carriage!"

The Jun family Residence

Jun Hua was too lazy to change into girl's clothes because today Madam Mu would only teach her the proper etiquette for meals. Yamin hadn't changed her clothes too, and stood there because Madam Mu also wanted to see the face mask. She was curious about the face mask that could change Yamin's appearance so much.

When they were still in the middle of learning, an unexpected guest arrived at their door.

"Lin Tang has come?" Jun Hua raised her eyebrow. She thought that Lin Tang wouldn't be easily moved, but it seemed she was mistaken.

"Yes Miss. Old Master is talking to him."

Jun Hua sneered. What a perfect time. "Xia, bring me my makeup bag. I need to fix up Jun Min face. And you should fix up Yamin's appearance too."

Madam Mu stopped in her tracks. "You want to do something?"

"Yes, it won't take long Madam Mu."

Jun Hua hurriedly fixed her appearance and went with 'Jun Hua' to the guest hall. Lin Tang was sitting there with her grandfather, while talking about light things. When they saw both of them appeared, Lin Tang eyes flashed in surprise.

"Grandfather, Prime Minister Lin Tang," Jun Hua greeted. By the side, Yamin only acted nervously and seemed to forget how to address them.

Lin Tang scanned Yamin for a second before focusing on Jun Hua. Indeed, the young man was really handsome and stunning. It was no wonder that his daughter went head over heels after seeing his appearance once.

Jun Zhenxian smiled. "Jun Min, Jun Hua, what is it?"

"I want to ask for Grandfather's permission to take Jun Hua for a walk in the garden," Jun Hua perfectly made up an excuse.

Jun Zhenxian brows furrowed. "Couldn't you wait until the Prime Minister left?"

"If I wait, I'm afraid it will be too dark."

"Fine, don't take too long. I don't want Jun Hua to get sick."

"Yes Grandfather."

Jun Hua led Yamin to the garden. Yamin followed behind calmly. She knew that Jun Hua must have her own reasons to appear in front of Lin Tang. As a subordinate, she needed to support her master.

Jun Zhenxian flashed an apologetic smile. "I'm sorry about my grandson. He's a bit… um… willful."

Lin Tang nodded, but his eyes were still fixed towards Jun Hua. There was no way he would normally let such a perfect person go. However, he came from this family, which complicated the whole matter.

"General Zhenxian, I want to ask for something outrageous."
