Chapter 1395 - So Brazen
The scarred man pulled Jun Xiqing over to him eagerly, caressing her soft face.
“Boss Yuan, this little beauty is an absolute treasure. I’ve played with many women before but they’re all vulgar and fake compared to her,” the scarred man barked out with a loud laugh.
Jun Xiqing paled as his dirty hands touched her and she struggled, trying to avoid him.
At this moment, a cold, magnetic voice sounded out. “Get your disgusting hands off her. She is not for the likes of you to touch.”
The scarred man froze and raised his head, his gaze snapping to Lu Yeming. His handsome face was still expressionless and cold, but it was bone-chilling darkness that made the scarred man shudder.
Even though the scarred man had lived his life in constant danger, the strong aura coming of this man scared him.
But who was he anyway? Dismissing the thought, the scarred man was indignant. The more fear he felt, the more he wanted to challenge it. “How dare you say such bold words even when you’re at death’s door?”
This Lu Yeming was crazy.
At this moment, Lu Yeming shifted the gun to Yuan Ming.
Knowing he had lost, Yuan Ming quickly raised his arms in surrender.
“Qingqing, come here.”
Lu Yeming held his hand out to her.
Jun Xiqing had yet to calm down and she ran over to him without hesitation, leaping into his arms. As she took in his masculine scent, it was only then that she could calm her anxious heart.
Her small hands wrapped around his chest as she hugged him.
Lu Yeming embraced her, lowering his lashes to kiss her cold forehead. “You’re safe now.”
A fierce nod was the only response from her.
“Yuan Ming, the Holy Lady Clan let you escape last time but you’re not going to be as lucky this time.” Lu Yeming looked at Yuan Ming coldly.
Yuan Ming smiled. “What about your mother?”
“Is my mother someone the likes of you can dream of?”
Yuan Ming seemed to not have heard him. “Yuewu, I’ve been looking for you for so many years. You should come back now.”
“You can wait until your next life if you want to see my mother.” Lu Yeming’s gaze darkened as he slowly pulled the trigger…
At this moment, he felt pain in his waist.
There was a knife sticking out, with fresh blood gushing out.
Dark red soaked through his white shirt.
Lu Yeming slowly lowered his eyes to look at Jun Xiqing.
There was a small knife in Jun Xiqing’s hand, which was soaked in blood. She stared at him palely with empty eyes, like she was a lifeless puppet.
She let go of the knife handle before staggering two steps back and collapsing on the grass.
She clutched her head, which was hurting so badly.
It hurt!
It hurt so much.
Lu Yeming looked at Yuan Ming with red eyes. “What have you done to her?”
“I’ve poisoned her. She only did as she was told when I asked her to kill you just now.”
Lu Yeming’s face turned cold. No one had ever seen his face this dark before. “I’ll give you one chance. Give her the antidote.”
Yuan Ming smiled and shook his head. “And why should I listen to you?”
“Alright then.” Lu Yeming’s thin lips slowly curved into a smile as he revealed his white teeth. “Don’t give her the antidote then.”
He lifted his hand again to aim the gun at him.
Yuan Ming was calm. “Kill me and Jun Xiqing will die. Our lives are linked now.”
Lu Yeming slowed his hand.
At this moment, a melodious voice sighed from behind them. “Yuan Ming, weren’t you looking for me? Here I am.”
Yuan Ming froze and turned around slowly.
It was Bei Yuewu.
She was in a red dress today. Since she had given birth to Lu Yeming when she was 18, that meant she was almost 44 now. Yet she seemed to only be growing younger, getting more elegant and charming with age.
Yuan Ming’s gaze burned as he stared at her in wonder.
At the same time, Lu Yeming holstered his gun and walked over to Jun Xiqing…
