Chapter 1328 - Another Encounter (2)
Jun Xiqing could only borrow a pen from Lu Yeming.
Lu Yeming sat there, with his long legs crossed. He was the renowned West Duke, he didn’t have to do anything to exude a powerful aura. He held a fountain pen with his beautiful fingers as he sat there quietly.
Once he heard her voice, Lu Yeming looked over.
His deep-set eyes landed on her ravishing face, but he didn’t reply.
Jun Xiqing was confused. What? Did he not hear her?
“President Lu, I forgot to bring a pen.” Someone else was presenting and Jun Xiqing could only lower her volume, making gestures with her fingers. “Can you… lend me a pen?”
Lu Yeming looked at her, he seemed to not have understood her.
“…”
But she was still fuming with rage inside.
She had become a more mature person after three years, but somehow when she was with this man, she would always be at a disadvantage.
He had his ways of fooling her.
Damn it.
“Ha.”
A rough chuckle burst out of his lips.
Jun Xiqing instantly turned her head, noticing that Lu Yeming was laughing. He seemed to be in a good mood.
“…”
What the heck was he laughing at? Furious, Jun Xiqing stretched her arm out, snatching the fountain pen in his hand over.
Then she started taking notes with it.
Lu Yeming, who had no pen, “…”
The emcee looked over. “President Lu, were you in a hurry and even forgot to bring a pen?”
Lu Yeming raised his brows, replying with a magnetic voice, “A little cat took my pen away.”
The little cat Jun Xiqing, “…”
…
The conference ended and Jun Xiqing got up from the seat, leaving the fountain pen behind. She didn’t want to spend even an extra minute with Lu Yeming.
Taking off her blazer, she handed it to an assistant and she looked around. “Where’s Ping Ping?”
Court Lady Ping Ping was Jun Xiqing’s personal assistant, she wouldn’t be too far away from her for no reason. However, she hadn’t spotted Ping Ping ever since she came out of the venue.
“Your Highness, I don’t know where Court Lady has gone. I did notice that Country C’s General Yue has been looking at Court Lady Ping Ping, not taking his eyes off of her for a long time,” the assistant reported dutifully.
Country C’s General Yue?
Jun Xiqing tried to recall his information. Out of the many commanders, Country A’s Xuan Ying would definitely claim the top spot.
Three years ago, Xuan Ying led the forces and crushed Shi Shi’s rebellion. After that, he continued guarding the borders for years. He had won multiple battles and made his name known to all in the nation. He was regarded highly by the people of Country A and his enemies would shiver in fear when they heard his name. He was the most renowned commander in the world.
Though Xuan Ying claimed the top spot, he was followed by General Yue of Country C.
General Yue was favored by Country C’s ruler since he was gung-ho and good in warfare. But he had one downside, and that was his lecherous nature. He would force himself on any woman he had his eyes on.
And now General Yue had his eyes on Ping Ping?
Where was she? Jun Xiqing circled the venue in her high heels, finally spotting Ping Ping in a corner of the corridor.
Ping Ping was pressed against the wall by General Yue, struggling to get away from him. “General Yue, please don’t go overboard. I’m President Jun’s court lady, do you really want to cause a war between our countries by doing this?”
The man known as General Yue was bent on having Ping Ping. He was egotistic and sounded every part the sleaze he was infamous for as he said, “Ping Ping, I can tell that President Jun is a smart person. Why would she even declare war just for you? You should just obey me, I’ll ask President Jun for your hand and you shall be my concubine.”
General Yue couldn’t wait, he started taking his pants off.
But he suddenly heard a voice. “General Yue, what do you think you are doing?”
General Yue stopped moving, lifting his head to see and he noticed Jun Xiqing standing in front. Her lustrous eyes were on his face and though she had a smile on her face, it spelled danger.
“Your Highness!”
Ping Ping took the chance to get away from him, tidying up her appearance before she ran over to Jun Xiqing, her face drained of all color.
“Haha, turns out it is President Jun. I’m interested in your court lady and was just trying to get to know her a little better. President Jun, I’m sure you wouldn’t make a huge fuss out of it, right?” He clearly wasn’t worried at all as he stood up straight, exerting his presence.
Jun Xiqing still had a smile on her face and she wanted to walk over to him.
“Your Highness!” Ping Ping tugged on Jun Xiqing’s sleeve, shaking her head.
Jun Xiqing smiled at Ping Ping, patting her cold hand as she reassured her. “Don’t worry, it’s fine.”
Jun Xiqing walked in front.
All the leaders walked over, with Lu Yeming leading in the front.
Lu Yeming stopped walking, standing along the corridor as he watched Jun Xiqing. She wasn’t wearing her blazer and was more feminine when compared to earlier on.
