Jun Hua wake up early the next morning and let Xia helped her prepare herself. Madam Xie and Xiao Yun are cleaning up the quarter diligently.
Jun Hua lazily walks to the gate, but the view she sees there almost makes her frozen in place. Lin San and Lin Yuan have been waiting for her there. Both of them are dressed beautifully and they seem to stare with dagger at the other one.
Jun Hua stared blankly. What have I missed?
Lin San looks at Jun Hua with smile. "Sister Hua, since this is the first time you're going to school from Lin family residence, why don't we go together?"
"Sister Hua, don't reject us," Lin Yuan also said with smile.
Somehow Jun Hua feels goose bumps when she looks at them. The one you're chasing are 'my brother', right? Why does it seems that you're chasing after me? Besides, I know from your eyes that you didn't really mean what you said. These two girls have change so much in such short time...
Even Xia cannot help, but rolled her eyes. She looks at their servants on their back. From their expression, it's clear that they're helpless with their Miss situation and they could only comply with her.
After struggling for half an hour, finally Jun Hua manages to reject them and get into her own carriage. By her side, Xia face is awful. She has already imagined the days onward are not going to be as peaceful as before.
Jun Hua passed a dry laugh. "Hopefully, this trend will pass soon."
Her hope didn't come true though as a lot of girls in the class all pester her and try to get into her good side. In the end, Fan Lanying cannot hold it in anymore and yell at them all causing the two of them to get punished.
"Those dumb girls are insane! How can they expect to get close with your brother so easily? They're truly annoying!"
Hearing Fan Lanying getting angry, Jun Hua feels a bit relief. At least her close friend isn't like the other girls who are eager to fawn after her. Jun Hua has been feeling restless. Has she done her move too quickly?
"Jun Hua, you need to learn how to refuse them! If you don't know how, I will teach you martial arts and then help you knock them out!"
"Lanying, that's impossible," Jun Hua said in surprise. This girl is truly not using her brain at all. If she truly goes and beat up that bunch of girls, then tomorrow there will be another sensation in the capital.
Fan Lanying puffed her cheeks. "They're only eyeing your brother. Whatever you do, never complied with them. You won't have any good ending."
Jun Hua nodded. Her eyes tinged with interest. She has clearly detected a few girls following after them. With Fan Lanying skill, she still cannot notice them, but Jun Hua can. Fan Lanying words are loud so they would surely hear her perfectly.
"Then, what should I do?"
"Just study as usual! I truly detest these girls. Looking pretty but they have venomous heart, do you think men are that easy to fool?"
Some of them are indeed easy to fool. Jun Hua remembered Lin Tang has been fooled completely by Chun Maora to the point he dumps out his own wife. There are also men who can pick a good girl and not get fooled by them.
Seeing Jun Hua silent, Fan Lanying sighed. "Jun Hua, I'm truly worried about you. With your personality, it will be hard for you to face them. Don't worry though, I will definitely protect you at school!"
"Thank you Lanying,"
"Don't mention it. Now, shall we finish our punishment?" Fan Lanying looks at the silk in front of her and sighed. With her skill it will take her a long time to finish today punishment.
Jun Hua similarly looks towards her own silk with dark face. She has barely managed to make a simple shape and now she has to finish a truly complicated shape. This is far harder than her usual task.
As the two of them do their work, Jun Hua noticed that the girl had slowly disappeared. Fan Lanying personality is quite disliked and many doesn't want to face her head-on unless they have death wish. With that, they could only leave the two of them alone.
Jun Hua barely manage to finish it with Fan Lanying do more than half of it after a couple of hours working on it. She's truly grateful for the girl help.
"Practice hard by yourself. You will surely improve," Fan Lanying said as she bid her farewell.
Jun Hua return to her carriage and Xia handed her a box of buns.
"You must be hungry Miss. They punished you for a long time."
Jun Hua nodded. "Its fine, it just means that I need to study embroidery more. Even if I cannot become an expert, at least I need to do a better work."
After they had returned to the residence, Xia asked Madam Xie to assign a few servants to cook. They quickly make a few dishes and Jun Hua could eat fully.
"Madam Lin is quite generous with the food distribution," Madam Xie reported.
Jun Hua is not surprised. If Jun Min found out that her sister has been mistreated, he might turn the whole capital upside-down. After all, just to pick up his sister, he has made a big disturbance in the academy. Chun Maora must have thought about it so no matter how unwilling she is, she has to.
After she has done eating, the servants told her that Lin San is requesting to meet her. Jun Hua doesn't have any excuse to not see her so she could only comply.
"Sister Hua, have you eaten? I brought you some pastries," Lin San smiled gently.
Jun Hua almost choked on air but she nodded calmly. "I have. Thank you for your concern Sister San. Please take a seat."
Lin San nodded. After she sits down, she exchanges a few pleasantries before getting to the main point. She wants to help Jun Hua in learning the needlework.
Jun Hua stared at the needle with unwillingness but she finally gives in and starts learning under Lin San help. As Lin San has been studying under the best teacher, her embroidery is really good and Jun Hua can learn quicker with her help.
"Over here, you have to do this."
Jun Hua truly admires the girl skill in embroidery. She's worthy of being the legitimate Miss and with this kind of skill, she would surely pass the examination with flying score. The position of legitimate miss is originally hers, but Jun Hua doesn't have any intention to take it back. She would prefer destroy this place rather than inherited this place.
The problem with Lin San is her attitude. She only did this to get close with Jun Min, but Jun Hua knows that it was an impossible request. If only Lin San can chance her attitude, she will become a really nice lady.
By her side, Xia stared down with expressionless face. Deep down, she is screaming loudly. What a quick change in attitude!
