856 Born to Be Beautiful (1/2)

Jun Xiqing looked up at Lin Xuanji. Uncle had given a lifetime of his love to her.

Even in the last lap of Uncle's life journey, he could not bear to force her against her wishes and would only accede to her requests.

”Uncle, actually you can be a little more selfish. You can get Madam Xuanji to be your wife.”

Jun Mosheng shook his head. ”She won't be happy this way.”

With that, Jun Mosheng caressed Jun Xiqing's hair affectionately. ”Qing'er, you've been with me since you were young and I've been raising and nurturing you. It's a pity that you're a female, if not I could handover Country Z to you.”

Jun Xiqing was a woman dressed in a man's clothing.

”Uncle.” Jun Xiqing fluttered her pretty lashes. ”Who said that women are incomparable to men? I'll help you to protect Country Z in the future!”

Many years later, Jun Xiqing became the first queen in history. She honored her promise and helped her Uncle protect Country Z.

…

At the luxurious private room of the six-star grand hotel, everyone sat down and began to eat their dinner.

Jun Mosheng and Lin Xuanji were seated together. He said gently, ”Xuanji, I'll get a waiter to bring a glass of warm water for you.”

The royal guard behind him followed his instructions.

But just then, the door to the private room was pushed open. A tall and handsome figure suddenly appeared and Lu Jinwen stood by the door.

”President, why are you here?” The hotel manager hurriedly ran over.

President?

This was a subsidiary hotel under the Lu Corporation. Now that they were in Capital, they could not avoid properties under the Lu Corporation.

Lu Jinwen entered the room holding an empty glass in his hand. He placed the glass beside Lin Xuanji's hand. The hotel manager held a pitcher and poured water for Lin Xuanji.

Lu Jinwen placed one hand on Lin Xuanji's chair and stuck the other hand into his trousers pocket. ”Xuanji, why didn't you tell me that you were bringing President Jun to my hotel for a meal? I would have asked the hotel's private chef to specially prepare a few dishes for both of you.”

Lin Xuanji was dumbfounded.

Jun Mosheng looked at Lu Jinwen. ”President Lu, it's been a long time since we last met. I wouldn't want to bother you this time. We will arrange again next time.”

Lu Jinwen smiled. ”President Jun, it's not troublesome at all. Someone come and add another chair here.”

The waiter promptly brought a chair over. The hotel manager asked cautiously, ”President, where would you like to sit?”

Lin Xuanji pointed to the middle space between Jun Mosheng and Lin Xuanji. ”Here.”

”Yes, President.”

A chair was placed in between Jun Mosheng and Lin Xuanji and Lu Jinwen sat down.

Everyone went silent.

Lu Jinwen did not pick up the chopsticks to eat. Instead, he leaned indolently against the chair with one arm placed around Lin Xuanji's chair, and he glanced sideways at Jun Mosheng. He smiled and said, ”President Jun, you've come at the right moment. Xuanji and I are getting married soon. President Jun, you'll have to come and attend our wedding on that day.”

Lin Xuanji's long lashes quivered and she promptly looked at Lin Xuanji. ”How come I wasn't aware that we're getting married?”

Lu Jinwen glanced at Lin Xuanji and he tousled her silky hair. His voice was laced with adoration. ”Darling, be good. There are outsiders here so don't kick up a fuss.”

Don't kick up a fuss…
