Chapter 1349 - His Dance Partner
Hearing those words, Jun Xiqing froze.
historical
She instantly lifted her eyes, only to see Lu Yeming standing right in front of her, his eyes on her body.
When she traced his gaze, she noticed that his eyes were on her chest. What’s worse was that she had bent over and her chest was completely exposed.
Jun Xiqing’s pupils contracted. How dare he?!
This was the powerful ruler of Country A, always exuding a dignified and poised aura. She simply hadn’t expected him to be this filthy. She instantly stood up straight, putting one hand over her chest and giving him a disgusted look.
Lu Yeming had two hands in his pockets, under the dim lighting his gaze was dark yet passionate, like a black diamond.
Even after he was exposed for peeping at her, he remained calm and composed. He licked his lips. “What... did you stick inside?”
Since he had lowered his voice, it was only audible for the two of them. He sounded extremely seductive.
Pfft! Jun Xiqing’s mind was blown away. Since the dress had thin straps, she couldn’t wear a normal bra and so she stuck on an adhesive bra. He had... seen it all! Even if he had seen it, why did he have to ask her about it? So shameless!
Jun Xiqing’s body was shaking furiously. She lifted her hand, wanting to give him a slap.
But she hadn’t managed to as Lu Yeming grasped her wrist before she could do so.
Reacting quickly, Jun Xiqing lifted her leg to give him a swift kick.
Lu Yeming didn’t avoid it this time, a footprint appeared on his black trousers.
“Ha.” He forced out a laugh, seemingly in a good mood. “You’re not angry anymore?”
Jun Xiqing’s heart thumped, she somehow felt that he was using a really gentle tone, as though he was coaxing his angry girlfriend.
But they weren’t boyfriend and girlfriend.
He had a wife.
Although he was allowed to have another thousand, or even ten thousand wives as long as he had the energy, she wasn’t included.
She knew his tactics. He was handsome, dignified and men like him were just like poppies, extremely dangerous as one would be addicted to them and never be able to quit.
Now, he even had this extra identity. He had the Dragon Totem and was incredibly prestigious. Daughters of political leaders wished they could marry him, forming queues just to be his concubine and they would love to give birth to his children.
This man could become a pro at flirting as long as he wanted to, she knew it, since she personally experienced it. When a distinguished man like him started treating a woman gently, no one would be able to escape from his clutches.
Three years ago, she had fallen for him.
But he chased her away, as though she was a pathetic dog.
She didn’t want to remember that awful past.
She knew for a fact that she didn’t have a spot in his heart.
She was content with her current life, but why did he have to come back and mess with her life, making her heart thump wildly?
“Let go of me!”
Jun Xiqing pushed him away forcefully. “Lu Yeming, I hate you!”
She dashed away.
“Hey, don’t leave yet!” Liuchuan felt that it was a pity that she had just left like that. “Nephew Yeming, be frank with me, what’s your relationship with her? You were peeping at her chest, I saw it.
“How is it? Is her chest big? What size is it?”
Liuchuan was really excited as he bombarded Lu Yeming with questions.
Lu Yeming merely gave him a cold-eyed stare.
This glance made Liuchuan have goosebumps. He wasn’t afraid of anything in this world, except this Nephew Yeming. “Nephew Yeming, alright, alright. I don’t care, I’m going to make myself clear now. I have my eyes on her and you’d better not try anything funny with her. I’m going to make her my girlfriend and when you see her next time, you must call her Aunt!”
After speaking, Liuchuan sauntered away arrogantly.
...
Lu Yeming was socializing with a few royals and his eyes were on Jun Xiqing, who was in front talking to a man.
He could tell that they had a pleasant conversation as Jun Xiqing covered her mouth while laughing. Gu Mohan and Tang Mo’er stood beside her too. The man had a tall build and was an important guest.
“President Lu, isn’t that the Mu family’s young master, Mu Yanfeng beside President Jun?”
“Mu family? Could it be that Mu family?”
“You’re right, it’s the Mu family who was involved in the firearms industry. However, they’ve already changed their images and became royals. This Mu Yanfeng is the young master of the Mu family and whenever he goes to any country, the president of that country would personally welcome him. He’s a mysterious presence that even presidents cannot afford to offend.”
“Did President Jun just get to know Young Master Mu?”
“They are both unwed and President Jun is also at a marriageable age. There’s a possibility between them.”
“President Jun and Young Master Mu seem really compatible.”...
Lu Yeming picked up a glass of wine, taking a sip of it as the corners of his lips kicked up.
...
Gu Mohan and Tang Mo’er walked away and Mu Yanfeng looked at Jun Xiqing, smiling at her. “You’re even more pretty, youthful and intelligent in real life when compared to on television. I’ll cut to the chase, I really like you, Miss Jun.”
Jun Xiqing had a good impression of Mu Yanfeng too. He was suave, successful at a young age, astute, gentlemanly and well-mannered.
“Young Master Mu, we can start from being friends.”
“Friends?” Mu Yanfeng raised his brows. “But I’m here to look for a girlfriend.”
Caught off guard, Jun Xiqing did not know how to respond. He was being too straightforward.
Mu Yanfeng laughed. “We can start from being friends.”
Jun Xiqing chuckled. She got along with him well and it was nice talking to him.
Some music started playing and Tang Mo’er went up the stage. “Dear guests, thank you for coming. The dance will begin soon.
“But before that, let’s play a simple game. Everyone will be divided according to their gender and stand on opposite sides. Once you’ve picked out one end of a red string, the other person who picks out the other corresponding end will be your dance partner for tonight.
“It is said that true love will be brought together with just a single strand of thread. Let us all find our destined love.”
The guests were all excited once they heard Tang Mo’er explain the rules. This game seemed interesting.
A few maids brought over the red strings and everyone started picking out the ends.
But Lu Yeming didn’t move.
“Yeming.” Tang Mo’er came over to him. “Pick out one end, let’s see who’s your destined one.”
“Okay.” As always, Lu Yeming looked at Tang Mo’er with a gentle gaze. He stretched his fingers out, picking out one end.
“Alright, we’re going to be untangling the strings. Gentlemen, please pull your destined ones over.”
The strings were untangled and one man actually pulled, with a beautiful girl falling into his arms.
The girl blushed while the guests surrounding them burst out laughing.
It was a wonderful atmosphere.
Immersed in the atmosphere, Jun Xiqing just smiled, lowering her head to look at the red string in her hand...
