Jun Xiqing was very afraid. She could hear the bustling noises of the crowd on the other side of the wall. She was very scared of being discovered by the others.
She was Country Z’s President now, while he was Country A’s Emperor. The two of them secretly hiding here gave rise to a shameful, yet thrilling feeling.
But she was even more afraid of him.
She didn’t understand why he was telling her all this. Why was he telling her that he didn’t possess any lustful thoughts toward Sister Mo’er? Why was he telling her that he had never slept with Dongfang Ruoli?
Why now?
Why?
Up until now, she had been living a very peaceful life. Her past youthful flights of fancy toward him were already a thing of the past.
Why was he forcing his way into her life now, disturbing the calm waters of her mind?
He was holding her soft, delicate hands tightly. Her hands felt hot, as if she was touching something forbidden. A deep red blush had already overtaken her whole face.
“Lu Yeming, let go of me!”
Lu Yeming’s eyes darkened. Pressing his tall, elegant frame against this slender woman against the wall, it was obvious he wished to do something risqué. Nevertheless, that calm, imposing aura of his dispelled any feelings of indecency.
Now, only she would dare to speak his name in such an indignant manner.
Lu Yeming’s scorching gaze was fixed upon her flushed, red face. “Where will you run off to if I let go of you? Are you going to seduce Mu Yanfeng?”
“…”
Jun Xiqing fluttered her long lashes. “Seduce…?”
She was speechless with rage. “When did you ever see me seducing Young Master Mu?”
Lu Yeming was hidden in the shadows and his profound eyes lit up with a dangerous and mocking light. “You smiled at him. Isn’t that an attempt at seduction?”
Jun Xiqing snorted. “President Lu, it looks like our definitions of seduction are completely different.”
“Ha.” Lu Yeming forced out a low chuckle. “How will I know that if I let go of you, you won’t take off all your clothes and go seduce him in all your naked glory?”
A gasp escaped her lips.
Naked glory?
She stared at him in shock. No matter what kind of vulgar words spouted out of his mouth, the aura he exuded remained regal and distinguished.
Jerk!
Jun Xiqing raised her hand to hit his handsome face. But as before, she didn’t manage to strike him.
Lu Yeming gripped her slender wrists with his long fingers, and pinned them to the wall.
Then he bent over and kissed her on the lips.
Turning her head, Jun Xiqing ducked to the side
It only caused Lu Yeming’s breathing to deepen and he reached further forward and bit her.
“Ah!”
Jun Xiqing’s eyes teared up with pain.
Lu Yeming buried his face into her neck and kissed her snow-white ears. Then he whispered with cold malevolence, “Remember, you are my woman, a woman who was once under me. You are not allowed to be under any other man. Ever. From now on, you are not allowed to be in contact with Mu Yanfeng.”
“…”
This jerk! Jun Xiqing raised her knee to strike him.
In order to avoid her knee, Lu Yeming evaded swiftly and ended loosening his grip on her.
So Jun Xiqing took the opportunity to escape!
…
Jun Xiqing didn’t return to the dance. She went to the washroom instead.
There was no one else in the washroom. She stood at the sink, gently peeling down one shoulder strap to reveal one lovely, fair shoulder.
A deep teeth mark was imprinted on her soft flesh. It was from his earlier bite.
Jun Xiqing’s face flushed red with embarrassment and bitter rage. She hated herself for being unable to defend herself against him, allowing him to bully her for so long.
Turning around, she splashed her face with cold water, then stepped back out. She then bid farewell to Tang Mo’er and left the party. Footsteps later, she had boarded her car and driven off.
On the road back, one of the car tires burst with a loud bang. The chauffeur immediately stopped the car. “Your Highness, one of the car tires has burst.”
Ping Ping spoke up promptly. “Your Highness, let me call for a new car.”
“No need. This is Capital, not Country Z. Ping Ping, let’s just hitch a ride back to our hotel.”
This was her first time visiting the Capital and Jun Xiqing didn’t wish to make too many demands.
Ping Ping nodded. “Yes, Your Highness.”
The chauffeur opened the door for them and the two ladies stood by the road. Ping Ping reached out to flag down an oncoming car.
A luxury car came to a stop and the car window on the passenger was wound down, revealing a rakishly handsome face. “Hey Beauty, we meet again.”
It was Liuchuan.
Recalling Liuchuan’s earlier lewd behavior toward her, Jun Xiqing had no intention of responding to him.
But Liuchuan was persistent. “Beauty, did your car tire burst? Hurry up and get in. I will have my nephew Yeming give you lift.”
Yeming… nephew?
Jun Xiqing peered into the luxury car and looked past Liuchuan to see a regal figure sitting behind the wheel.
It turned out that Lu Yeming was driving. With one hand on the steering wheel, he turned his profound gaze onto her little face. “Get in.”
Just those two simple words. Filled with power and dominance.
Hmph! Jun Xiqing did not wish to board his car at all.
“Your Highness, I’m afraid we will be recognized out here soon. Let’s just board President Lu’s car for now.” Ping Ping suggested.
So Jun Xiqing didn’t protest. Ping Ping opened the door to the backseat and she climbed in.
…
It was quiet inside the car, and Liuchuan was very eager. He turned to look at Jun Xiqing. “Beauty, I like you very much. Will you be my girlfriend from now on?”
“…” Jun Xiqing looked at Liuchuan. “Young Master, I am sorry but I don’t like you.”
“Why?” Liuchuan was full of disbelief. He had many admirers when he was in school, all of whom showered him with love letters and chocolates all day long. As a result, he was very confident in his own charm. “Beauty, if you don’t like a big, macho young man like me, then what type of men do you like?”
Liuchuan looked at the guy beside him. “Could it be you prefer men like my nephew Yeming here? Mature, stable, handsome and rich?”
It was rather strange hearing this overgrown boy calling someone as mature as Lu Yeming ‘nephew’.
Jun Xiqing looked at the man in front of her. This Liuchuan was his mother’s younger brother?
Lu Yeming glanced up at this moment and met her eyes via the rear view mirror.
Jun Xiqing immediately shifted her gaze and bit her lower lip. “I don’t like him.”
She said she didn’t like him.
Lu Yeming withdrew his gaze, his handsome face remaining calm and unperturbed. Through the car window, his impeccable features were lit up by the streetlights outside. One could barely tear their eyes away from him.
At this moment, a cell phone started ringing and Ping Ping picked it up. “Your Highness, it’s the senator.”
The one thing that Jun Xiqing hated the most in her entire life was talking to those stubborn old senators!
But she still obediently took over the cell phone. “Hello.”
“Your Highness.” The senator’s angry voice rang out. “What is going on? There are rampant rumors swirling about that you are no longer a virgin and that you have already slept with a man!”
