Chapter 1426 - Youre Going to Give Me to General Yue as a Concubine? (1/2)

General Yue’s hand froze as he looked at Jun Xiqing. As she stood there in her white chiffon dress, her bright eyes were cold and fierce. He didn’t dare take another step.

So General Yue drew his hand back sulkily. She really was the youngest daughter of the Jun Family who had made history and was different from all the other women out there.

Jun Xiqing glared at General Yue coldly and walked away.

“Hmph.” At this moment, General Yue scoffed coldly and said, “Why are you pretending to be so innocent? You’re just a broken slipper that men have played with before. Take care of yourself if you have the ability to. Other men have already slept with you, so why can’t I?”

Those words were spat out in disdain.

Jun Xiqing’s face was cold and she didn’t want to argue with his twisted logic, so she turned and left.

She didn’t want to be at this banquet.

She wanted to leave this God-forsaken place.

At this moment, a bulletproof presidential car pulled slowly into the lawn and Fan Men got off to open the back door. Lu Yeming had arrived.

Jun Xiqing lifted her head to look in their direction. Lu Yeming was still in his exquisite black suit, which was pressed and didn’t have a single wrinkle on it. An aura of coldness and restraint surrounded him.

The moment he appeared, people started whispering. His beautiful, sculpted features were especially captivating in the bright lights.

Jun Xiqing’s red lips curved upwards and she turned to leave.

“Where are you going?”

A man’s low voice rang out from beside her ear.

Jun Xiqing’s footsteps slowed and she looked at him. “President Lu, please enjoy yourself. I’ll be taking my leave first.”

Lu Yeming walked over and stopped in front of her, his deep gaze lingering on her angry face. “Did someone bully you?”

“That’s right, General Yue just called me a broken slipper that men play with and was harassing me.”

Other than a quick twitch of his brows, Lu Yeming’s face remained emotionless. He smiled and said. “What’s with your tone? Are you taking it out on me because someone bullied you?”

Jun Xiqing lifted her hand to tuck a strand of silky hair behind her ear, her delicate feature made even more beautiful by her laid-back attitude. “What, is President Lu not going to stand up for me?”

“Give me a reason to.”

“You were still calling out my name when we were sleeping together last night. Are you not going to stand up for your woman now that she’s being harassed? You must be leading me on then.”

Lu Yeming’s thin lips slowly curved upwards as he said, “It’s not worth it for me to aggravate the esteemed General Yue from Country C, just for one woman.

“But,” Lu Yeming continued as he looked deeply at Jun Xiqing, “if this woman was willing to marry me and become the Empress by my side, I’ll thoroughly eradicate anyone who dares to come near her. She can do whatever she wants.”

He said this all with a deep and calm voice, without any change in tone or exaggeration, as though he was saying something simple.

The bright light fell on him, this man who had become famous at the age of eighteen and was the envy of so many other people out there.

Somehow, the words no longer surprised her. In response, Jun Xiqing lowered her long lashes and said, “President Lu is talking about business again. So marriage is a transaction to you as well.”

With that, Jun Xiqing looked at General Yue who was in the main hall and said, “Leave him alone for a few days. Once I’ve dealt with my difficult situation, I’ll get rid of him myself.”

Jun Xiqing turned to leave.

But a large palm reached out to grab her slim wrist, stopping her in her tracks.

“President Lu, you’re dealing with a situation?”
