Chapter 481: Chapter 481: Who? Come out

Jun Moyan’s thumb brushed gently over the sleeping face of Wen Xiao’ai on the screen, his expression incredibly tender.

Xiaoguai.

He silently called her in his heart, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curving upward.

No matter what had happened before, now he had Xiaoguai, and that was enough.

Today, Jun Moyan had been running around because of Shangguan Yu’s matter.

Meanwhile, Shangguan Yu had spent the day playing landlord with the two sentries at the door of the confinement room.

"Straight flush, three to K, want it?" Shangguan Yu tossed his cards onto the bunk.

"Don’t want it, pass."

"I’ll take it, four to A, just perfect."

"Kid, you’ve got some good cards there," Shangguan Yu said, sitting up straight and trying to peek at the sentry’s cards.

The sentry covered his cards a bit embarrassingly, "General, we are playing this seriously, you have to follow the rules, no peeking at my cards."

"Tsk, what’s the harm in just looking? What, afraid I’ll beat you?"

"Seems like it," the sentry no longer covered them after hearing Shangguan Yu’s words.

Anyways, even if he let him see the cards, he couldn’t win.

Don’t ask why, because Shangguan Yu didn’t know how to play~

"General, aren’t you the slightest bit worried about yourself?" another sentry remarked.

"Worried about what?" Shangguan Yu was unconcerned.

"The Jun Family made threats. They said you’ll never be a military man again in this lifetime."

"Anyone can make threats. It’s just a scare tactic, why take it seriously?"

"It’s not like that, General. They are the Jun Family, and although your family background is impressive, compared to the Jun Family..."

"If it comes to that, I just won’t be a soldier then. I’ll go back and be a pampered young master. I’d be more than happy to not deal with you brats anyway."

"Do you really think that way?"

"Yeah, that’s what I think," Shangguan Yu curled his lips.

"You’re really planning to just give up?"

"Why do you worry about nonsense? Triple fives, are you playing or not?"

"General, you can only bring a single or a pair with a triple, not two different ones."

"Nonsense, who says so? What’s the difference between a pair and two different ones?"

"..."

In the evening,

after having dinner, Wen Xiao’ai returned to her room. She was a bit sleepy since she hadn’t slept well the night before and hadn’t caught up on sleep during the day.

After taking a bath, she went to bed early. She had planned to sleep, but being used to sleeping with Jun Moyan, she couldn’t fall asleep by herself now.

After tossing and turning in bed for more than ten minutes, Wen Xiao’ai sat up and rummaged through her pile of little trinkets.

"I’ll play for a while, then tidy up a bit. In a few days, I’ll bring some fun things back for my friends."

There was so much money on the card her grandfather gave her. Could she take a little bit out to buy some gifts for her friends?

Wen Xiao’ai thought about it and shook her head.

"No, that’s not right. That’s my betrothal gift, not just money. It’s what Jun Moyan will use when he marries me; I can’t use it carelessly."

Sitting on the bed, Wen Xiao’ai played with her trinkets while talking to herself and suddenly became aware of a slight fluctuation in the room’s barrier.

If it weren’t for her heightened vigilance, such a subtle disturbance would have been difficult to detect.

Wen Xiao’ai immediately grew more alert and turned to look towards the balcony, but after waiting a while, there was no movement.

Wen Xiao’ai got up from the bed and carefully approached the balcony door.

After standing for a while, she still didn’t notice anything.

Could it have been her imagination?

Still not reassured, Wen Xiao’ai silently gathered her mana, opened the balcony door, and stepped out.

"Who’s there? Show yourself."

Wen Xiao’ai stood on the balcony, calling out to the air with great authority.
