Chapter 1388 - Falling Into His Embrace
The auction two days later…
Mm…
Jun Xiqing took her hand back slowly.
At this moment, Lu Yeming walked over. Pressing his thin lips together, he said lightly, “Cancel the auction taking place in two days.”
But Lady Mei only tightened her grip on Jun Xiqing’s retreating hands and said, “Young Master, now that Madam isn’t here, my word is the law in Ah Jiao’s Room. Qingqing has already been sold to us. If Young Master wants her, you’ll have to come during the auction.”
At her words, Lu Yeming’s gaze turned unhappy.
“Young Master, I’ll be leaving with Younger Sister Qingqing first. You can make a call to Madam and get her to come back.”
With that, Lady Mei brought Jun Xiqing back into Ah Jiao’s Room.
“Your Highness.” At this moment, Ping Ping walked in. “Jun Chulin and Jun Xiling are outside and want to see you.”
Jun Xiqing looked at Ping Ping. What’s the matter?
Ping Ping pressed her hands against her mouth and sniggered. “Your Highness, Jun Xiling was supposed to be locked up and live her life as a princess, but it’s just been revealed that her husband had a mistress. Jun Xiling fought with the mistress today and accidentally hit her. She’s now in a vegetative state and the Senator wants to use this to incriminate her. It’s unlikely that she will escape a jail sentence this time.
“As for Jun Chulin, he already succeeded as President, but an oppressed son from the Jun Family suddenly returned to Country Z last night and became his political enemy. It’s going to be hard for him to hold on to his seat.
“Lastly, Jun Xiyan vanished into thin air last night. I heard that her face was ruined and she was thrown into the army barracks to be a prostitute.”
Ping Ping didn’t feel an ounce of pity for them. In fact, she was overjoyed. On account of the relationship they had the past 23 years, Her Highness had been too soft on them. This person was just doing what she should have done from the shadows.
This person was helping her take revenge.
Jun Xiqing headed over to the window and opened it gently. Her small face wasn’t happy or angry. Fighting was easy but protecting something was much harder. She had already known since last night that Jun Chulin would not be able to hold his position for long.
Ping Ping couldn’t guess what Her Highness was thinking and asked softly, “Your Highness, would you like to see them? Do you want to help them?”
Jun Xiqing shook her head slowly.
She had already repaid whatever she owed to them.
Thank goodness! Ping Ping was afraid that Her Highness was going to help those undeserving cowards. “Your Highness, who do you think is behind this? It’s only been a night, so the person must be extremely powerful to be able to make such an impact in such a short time, to protect Your Highness.”
Who else could it be? Jun Xiqing knew exactly who had done this. Who else had this kind of power and means?
It was definitely Lu Yeming.
He had made his move against them.
…
Some time later, Jun Xiqing was pulled back by Lady Mei, who put a pair of high-heeled clogs on her and made her walk while swaying her hips. Lady Mei walked out, leaving Jun Xiqing to practice her walk by herself.
Creak. At this moment, the door opened and someone entered, unnoticed.
The master was here so she, as the disciple, had to work harder. Straightening her back, Jun Xiqing did as Lady Mei taught, puffing her shapely chest out, twisting her hips and sticking her butt out to force her back into a graceful figure.
She walked one round in the room, satisfied, before looking at the person who entered. “Lady Mei, your disciple is pretty amazing isn’t she?”
But she froze in the next second.
It wasn’t Lady Mei, but… Lu Yeming.
Lu Yeming walked over and shut the door behind him, the other hand in his pocket. He looked at her with his deep eyes and his gaze moved downwards to her shapely figure.
His gaze was burning.
He was in a white shirt and black trousers today, a classic look for men. His figure was naturally amazing and everything he wore looked better on him than on a male model.
Jun Xiqing’s mind flashed back to Lady Mei’s words and she blushed.
She took a step forward to break the silence.
But she forgot that she still had clogs on and stumbled, falling straight towards him.
How unlucky.
He really was the bane of her existence. Why did she always seem to embarrass herself with him around?
At this moment, a pair of strong arms reached over to hold her waist up and she tumbled into a strong chest.
Straight into his chest.
Before Jun Xiqing could even find her balance, a low laugh brushed against her ear. “Why were you blushing just now? Were you thinking dirty thoughts about me?”
