Chapter 237 - We Are Different
Jun Hua stood still on her place and in a matter of minutes, she heard the sound of horse paced towards this place and soon, a lady came within her field of sight.
The lady was stunned to see Jun Hua, but she quickly regained her calm and reined her horse, "It has been some time since the last time we meet, Princess Jun Hua."
"Indeed, it is, Princess Lan Gao Ya," Jun Hua greeted back.
Lan Gao Ya looked towards Jun Hua with wariness. With the ability of the information agency that she had, she quickly discovered that Lan Pan was going to Yuan Kingdom, so she followed the trail. Then her men delivered news that there was a massacre spot not far from her and it was possible that Lan Pan was dead among the mass.
Lan Gao Ya almost cannot believe the news when it first reached her. Who was Lan Pan? The only word that can describe him perfectly would only be 'monster.'
Such person was not one that can be judge by common sense. Because of that, she quickly paced to her to meet with the other party. Never would she think that she will meet with a member of the Jun Family once again.
"Did you also come because of him?" Lan Gao Ya pointed towards his cousin's corpse.
Jun Hua shook her head, "I come to talk with you since I know you would certainly come here."
When she came to Yuan Kingdom, she finally received the information of Lan Gao Ya's role in the war. It was then did she finally understand how the Lan Family could lose so badly. Besides that, she knew that Lan Gao Ya was near and this might be the only chance for them to meet with each other personally once again.
Lan Gao Ya hand tightened, "Did you still blame me for what I do to your brother?"
Obviously, she didn't blame her for that. There was no way she would blame the other party considering that she actually used that chance to get out from the Ming Kingdom too.
"No, I want to ask you about what you said to me when we meet last time. Did you already know at that time that you will be able to get out and have the chance to do your revenge?" Jun Hua asked.
Lan Gao Ya stayed still in her place. To be told the truth, she didn't have that much confidence about her plan. However, she had already planted the seed, so she just waited for the time to come. She was betting her life, and it succeeded.
"No, I ask that, so they won't get away easily since you're also the same, right?" Lan Gao Ya might not know much about Jun Hua, but the event of Jun Family separating themselves was not a secret. She knew, the other party was also someone who was against the Ming Kingdom.
Jun Hua didn't answer and merely stared at the other party.
Lan Gao Ya climbed down the horse, "So what do you want from me?"
"I want to know what you have done to Lan Ping since he's in your hands now."
"Lan Ping," Lan Gao Ya frowned at the mention of this name. She genuinely hated this man to the core and never wished to hear his name anymore. "I do what I think he deserves to get. Do you also have a grudge against him?"
"Not only him, but also the Lan Family," Jun Hua answered. After all, it was Lan Family that schemed against Jun Family in the past and play the role to make the emperor chase after them. Without them, the Jun Family would still thrive in Ming Kingdom.
"So you want to take your revenge against him personally?" Lan Gao Ya asked in a low tone.
"There's no need for that. I believe you have already done more than enough," she didn't have to personally enact her revenge. Even if it was through Lan Gao Ya hands, she felt that it was already enough.
After all, it was not her principle to do everything by her hand if there were other people who were willing to do it.
"I see," if it was her, she wouldn't be able to calm down if she didn't do it herself. Lan Gao Ya looked towards Jun Hua, "I guess, we're really different in a sense."
Jun Hua nodded her head.
Lan Gao Ya looked towards Jun Hua and opened her mouth. "Do you not worry that I will use you now?"
"You won't," Jun Hua answered right away. She had seen the other party expression when 'Jun Min' woke her up before and she knew that the other party wouldn't do anything towards Jun Family anymore.
"You sound as if you know so much about me," Lan Gao Ya smiled wryly. "But you're right. I won't do anything towards the Jun Family anymore and that would include you."
If she dared to do something to the Jun Family, Jun Hua would not let the other party go so easily. She only let that girl go because she didn't have any personal grudge with this little girl. Besides, she knew that she was also someone who hated her own family.
"It's too bad… I actually want to have some deal with you," Lan Gao Ya looked towards Jun Hua. The girl's eyes were deep and unfathomable, making it hard for her to guess what the other party thought.
"Unfortunately, I don't think we could ever reach the same term," Jun Hua said slowly. Their interest might go in the same way right now, but it would surely change because she had noticed the other party hidden personality.
In a sense, she was the same with Lan Pan. Because she had to live by trading information and saw the death of many people from young age, it has become her way to deal with them using the cruelest method she could think off. That cruel method and seeing those people she hated suffered was something she pursued for her entire life and enjoyed.
For Jun Hua who still have some kindness in her heart due to her experience, she could not tread the same path as the other party.
"You're right. We won't reach agreement in some fields." Lan Gao Ya smiled. "I think this shall be the last time we meet each other personally."
"It's possible."
"I hope the best for you, Princess Hua."
"You too, Princess Gao Ya. Thank you for your time. I will take my leave now."
Lan Gao Ya watched as Jun Hua walked away slowly. She mused for a moment before opening her mouth. "Princess Hua, what do you think that makes us different?"
Jun Hua stopped in her tracks, "It's the people around us and how we handle the problems in front of us."
After answering that, Jun Hua continued walking. Lan Gao Ya stared at the other party's visage until she can no longer saw her. They have different yet similar past of losing their family and have to choose the step they are going to take.
The only difference between her and Jun Hua was the fact that Jun Hua still has her family while she didn't have anyone on her side to help her. Because of that, their way of handling their revenge would be different.
"I guess in a sense she uses me," Lan Gao Ya shook her head. "But it doesn't matter. All I want is the revenge for my father."
She looked towards Lan Pan. She remembered the word he used to say to her before her uncle made him into a complete killing weapon.
'We're just pawn.'
They were indeed only pawn on the grand scheme of those powerful people. However, she would not be a pawn that stayed still. She would surely gain power to enact her revenge and not let those people go. Her entire life purpose was for revenge, and that was the only thing she pursued in this life.
Her eyes sparkled with ruthlessness as she clenched her fist. They would surely experience regret for killing her father and took everything from her!
