Qianru woke up with ray of the sun glared at her face, she felt slightly headache and her throat sore.
Staggering, she got off from bed and reached to the table, poured a cup of water to moisten her chapped lips as the event last night back to her memory.
The conversation between her and Mo Xuan Fei about the dispute at the border, was still bother her.
There was a part of her that believe that Xiao Jun involved in this, however she couldn't think the reason and didn't have a prove of his involvement except the fact that he was often away from the courtyard and no one knew where his whereabouts.
Apparently Xiao Jun also didn't return last night, even though today he had promised to bring her to the court. In other words, they would enter the palace together.
It was only the right time to greet the Emperor of Rockstone Kingdom together.
Before, Xiao Jun had met with the Emperor alone and Qianru also had greeted him on her own on her second days in Rockstone as Xiao Jun was nowhere to be found.
This was the first time they would go together in the public.
Qianru was supposed to be excited, however with the fact Xiao Jun didn't make any appearance after his promised, she was hesitated.
Probably he forgot it, maybe he talked like that only on a whim…
Her worry mind was disrupted by the sound of creaking door.
"Finally you are awake." Xiao Jun stood at the doorstep.
Looked brighter than ever as he wore his dark green robe neatly, his black like pitch- of the night hair was pulled back into a man bun as he smiled warmly.
"What are you looking at? We will be late if you just standing there and do nothing." Xiao Jun folded his arms in front of his chest. "I don't mind to offend the Emperor of Rockstone Kingdom, but he already been tense lately, I don't think he will accept it nicely."
There was something in the way Xiao Jun talked to her that gave a feeling he was in good mood, something good must be happen in his end, no matter what he did.
And his cheery self affected Qianru, she couldn't help but reciprocated his smile. All her worries and presumption was disappearing into thin air.

"I will be ready in ten minute."
And as simple as that, Qianru was happy again.
***
Somehow Xiao Jun decided to walk to the palace hall instead of taking a carriage or sedan, because today was a sunny day and it was good for Qianru to stretch up a bit after became a hermit in their courtyard.
"Hermit?" Qianru reiterated sullenly.
Xiao Jun spurted all the nonsense excuses for them to take a walk, but Qianru knew him better to say that he was only teasing her.
She didn't mind a bit about it, in fact, she enjoyed strolled hand in hand with him while talking trivial things like what they did when they were younger and free.
After all the tense between them and Xiao Jun's fickle mood recently, Qianru appreciated his approach. She hoped the way they were talking with each other would be last.
She hated arguing with him.
"I remember your father told me that you didn't want to come out from your room because you were cranky after your father forbade you come with him to city Y."
"It is amazing that you still remember that detail." Qianru didn't try to hide the sarcasm in her voice, but Xiao Jun ignored it completely.
"You were not coming out from your room for more than four days." Xiao Jun grabbed her hand tightly as they walked under the blossom cherry trees. "And now, for what reason?"
"What reason for what?" Qianru frowned didn't understand where this conversation heading to.
"What the reason you were hiding in the courtyard for a week. I heard Zhao Tianqi invited you for another tea party." Xiao Jun said with smile curled on the corner of his lips.
Qianru widened her eyes before she burst into a laugh. "Are you seriously thinking I will come for her so- called tea party again?" She raised her perfect eyebrows questioningly. "No, thanks. I have learned to not accept any invitation from her."
"It's good thing that you had learnt something, but…" Xiao Jun stopped walking and turned to face Qianru. All the guards who were accompanying them also stopped, kept a distance away so they wouldn't overhear the couple conversation. "But, why you used me as your excuse?"
Qianru bit her lips as she remembered the excuse that she used to avoid the invitation.
At that time, she was really reluctance to having meaningless chat with other people, not to mention it was Zhao Tianqi, who threw a party to celebrate Ji Yunshu and Mo Suchen joyful day.
Qianru has to admit that she was a bit cranky after Xiao Jun left her for another mission without a word, again.
Thus, out of annoyance she orchestrated an excuse about his illness.
Yes, Qianru made up a story about Xiao Jun who was having back pain after his martial arts practice in the morning and she, as a good and obedient wife, must look after him.
It wasn't a serious illness, quite embarrassing actually and she didn't need to call for imperial physician to attend because she said it wasn't the first time Xiao Jun suffered this pain and they had the right medicine that always they brought with them.
Therefore, everything was fine and Qianru had the excuse that she needed so she couldn't go out from the courtyard.
"What actually you heard?" Qianru asked carefully, feigned her innocent.
"Something like; I was suffering from lumbago." Xiao Jun was squinted his eyes at the woman, who was only slightly higher than his shoulder. "Can't you think of something more creative?"
