Chapter20: Couple or Not?
The next morning Lin woke up and went out of her tent. She was already cleaned up so she around the camp, grumpily. "Oh, Lin!" said a voice. Lin looked where the voice came from and saw Jiang Wei. "Oh, uh, hey!..." Lin whispered. "Hm? What's wrong? Usually you're never this gloomy." Jiang Wei lifted her head up by the chin. "Come on, let everyone see your pretty face!" he said.
Lin pushed his hand under her chin away and began walking elsewhere. "Heh, heh…" Ma Chao grinned, coming out of his tent and teasing Jiang Wei. "W-what! It works on Xing Cai!" Jiang Wei said. "Hey, don't you start that again!" Ma Chao said. "…Hm, oh yeah," said Jiang Wei.
"Hmm. What's that about?" asked Lin. She sat on one side of her tents entrance opening the flap to see what's going on. "Hmp? Don't know actually," said Xing Cai who sat on the other side of Lin's tent's entrance.
"Hah! Is that so?" asked Yue Ying who sat n the back of the tent. "Your face is red."
"W-what's this all about?" asked Lin curiously all of a sudden.
"Jiang Wei and Xing Cai are boyfriend and girl friend," said Yue Ying.
"WHAT!" shouted Lin.
"Uh-uh!" said Xing Cai shutting her eyes. "We were ! But not anymore! Besides, what is it to you?"
"Huh?"
"She's got a point there, Lin." Said Yue. "Why do you care all of a sudden… unless you… him!..."
"N-no, you got it all wrong, Yue!" said Lin, blushing.
"Does she?" said Xing Cai.
"Uh!... Well, I don't like Jiang Wei, okay! He's such a…"
"'Here that, Jiang Wei? There gossiping 'bout you," said Ma Chao with two other guys behind Lin's tent, eavesdropping.
"Tch, yeah, yeah, I here it alright…" said Jiang Wei.
"Oh, come on, Ma Chao, don't be so harsh on the baby of Shu," said Zhao Yun teasing and pointing at Jiang Wei.
"Hey! It's not my fault that Xing Cai is JUST ONE MONTH older than me!" shouted Jiang Wei. After that, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao began cracking up.
(Later on the day, there wasn't much but Nada III. Heh, heh, got that from G4TV! Well anyway, nothing special during the day so here's night fall! …."
'Oh man, I can't sleep!' thought Lin lying down on her bed. She got up and went out of her tent. She sat on a log and sat next to the fire, thankfully it wasn't out.
"Oh, hey…" said Jiang Wei. Lin turned around and saw him. "Ah, hi," she said.
"So, what are you doing up at this hour?" he asked. He sat on the same log as she did but on the other edge, away from her.
"Not much."
"'That so?"
"I can't sleep, okay."
"…"
"So what about you?" she asked.
"What?"
Sigh "What are you doing up this late?"
Sigh "Heh, heh, well, Prime Minister, Zhuge Liang, told me to put out the fire though it was Ma Chao who was supposed to."
"Then why…"
"It's because that moron slacked off."
"Ah, I see," she said looking at the bucket of water who was held by Jiang Wei. "Well, since it's your duty from the prime minister, 'guess I'll leave now." Lin got up ready to leave.
"Hold on, wait up," said Jiang Wei grabbing her arm.
"What is it?" she said turning back. He took a deep sigh.
"Uh, well…" She sat back on the log waiting for him to finish speaking. "Uh, d-do you mind telling me about your, uh, life?"
"What?" 'It's always me being asked the personal questions!' she thought. "W-well, sure. Looks like I've no other choice…" she mumbled.
"What was that?" he said.
"Ah, nothing!" she said. "So, uh, what do you want to begin with?"
"Hmm, how bout… your family background?" he said.
"Heh, there already I see…" she said with a sweat. "No problem. Well, since you already know that I'm a noble, I guess, my father was the king of the Hai Lands, you see?"
"That much I all ready know. Look, why don't we talk in your or my tent? I feel… disturbed out here at this time."
"Yeah, uh sure!" she said. "We'll go to your tent!"
"Good." So they left to Jiang Wei's tent and killed the fire. When they got inside they both sat down across each other. All of a sudden Jiang Wei pulled out a book out of no where and began flipping pages.
"Uh…?"
"You said 'Hai,' right?"
"Hai Lands, yeah."
"Hmmm…. Whoa."
"What?"
"Y-you've a sister?"
"Huh?"
"You've a sister," Jiang Wei repeated.
"Uh…"
"…"
"'Know what, I, um, I…gotta'…" Before she could finish the whole party of Shu Generals came in falling in the tent landing on top of each other.
"WAIT!" said Guan Ping.
"What is it!" said Jiang Wei in hidden furry.
"Lin IS the princess of her Land, Hai, right?"
"Duh, have you not been listening?" said Ma Chao.
"Okay then. Then that girl we captured was who then?" said Guan Ping.
"Oh, that annoying, little, spoiled brat?" said Zhao Yun.
"Oh yeah I remember her," said Ma Chao. "I hate her."
"Oh her, uh Miss Paw or whatever," said Jiang Wei, "Yeah, she was hitting on me!"
"Me too!" said Guan Ping.
"Same!" said Ma Chao.
"Here!" said Zhao Yun.
"Then everyone teased and laughed for a while. (A long time in other words)
"Well any, Lin…" said Jiang Wei. "Where is Lin?" He looked around to find her. "Hey, uh, everyone, help me find Lin!" Everyone, including the guards, looked and searched around all on camp but couldn't find a trace of her. But I her tent she wasn't there, just her stuff and even her valuables. An hour later that felt like days later when Jiang Wei heard that Lin was missing, he became very upset.

'I must get away!' Lin thought. She ran and ran until she crashed into something, but turns out that that something seemed to be somebody. From the crash, Lin sent herself and the person to the ground on their bottoms. "Owww…" said Lin rubbing her sides. She sat up straight finally noticing the person doing same thing. "Oh, I'm so sor…" She froze and couldn't speak when the person looked at her eyes to eyes. "Lin!" he said. "L-Lu…Xun…!"
