Chapter 1427 - I Have Always Loved You
Jun Xiqing walked to the toilet, followed by two bodyguards who had been sent by Lu Yeming. She assumed that the bodyguards were there to both protect her and keep an eye on her.
At the dining table just now, General Yue’s obscene gaze had been fixated on her body, as though she was a piece of delicious cake that had landed in his hands.
That was a bad sign.
Would these two bodyguards be able to protect her if General Yue tried to force himself onto her?
At this moment, a tall and strong figure appeared in front of her, blocking her path. “Miss Jun, we meet again.”
Jun Xiqing stopped in her tracks. It was General Yue.
It was clear he had chased her down and was staring at her small face with a vicious gaze as he rubbed his hands together eagerly.
Jun Xiqing steered herself as she glared at him. “What do you want?”
“I want… you.” General Yue pounced on her.
Jun Xiqing dodged and he didn’t even graze her clothes. “This is Country A, President Lu’s turf. You’re going to try raping me in such a public place?”
General Yue laughed and said, “Miss Jun, you’re too naive. How would I dare come here without President Lu’s approval?”
“The truth is, President Lu already gave his consent to give you to me as my concubine.”
Jun Xiqing’s gaze turned cold as her hands balled into fists. Who the hell did Lu Yeming think he was? How dare he give her away?
“Come, Miss Jun. I’m pretty amazing and will make sure you have a good time. I guarantee that you’ll fall in love with me!”
General Yue was a strong military man and had pretty good skills. He quickly grabbed Jun Xiqing’s clothes.
The blood drained from Jun Xiqing’s face, leaving her with a never-ending coldness as she looked at the two bodyguards. “He’s threatening me. Are you not going to care?”
The bodyguard looked at her in discomfort and said, “I’m so sorry, Miss Jun, but His Majesty had orders…”
Bastard. Jun Xiqing’s heart was cold. Lu Yeming really was pushing her towards her death without any hesitation.
“Little beauty, did you hear that? Stop thinking about President Lu and follow me in the future. I’ll love you properly.”
General Yue pounced again.
Jun Xiqing stood where she was, waiting for General Yue to make his move before lifting her leg and kicking squarely in between the legs.
Thud! General Yue had no time to react and was kicked hard.
“Arghhh!!!”
He yelled out horribly, his features twisting in agony. He lifted his hand and gave Jun Xiqing a vicious slap.
With a loud smack, Jun Xiqing was thrown to the ground. The force sent her reeling backward and she could taste blood in her mouth.
Her right face was burning as General Yue cursed her to the high heavens. “F*ck you, broken shoes. Do you still think you’re the mighty President Jun? Look at your situation. Even President Lu is sick of playing with you. How dare you kick me? Don’t worry, even if you kick me down there, I still have a thousand methods to play with you, you little sl*t!”
With that, General Yue pushed open a door and started dragging Jun Xiqing in.
Jun Xiqing grabbed the cashmere carpet with both her hands. It was stained red as her fingernails broke on them.
“Get lost! Don’t touch me!”
At this moment, a pair of bright, black leather shoes appeared in her sight. The two bodyguards called out respectfully, “Your Majesty.”
Jun Xiqing’s eyelashes quivered as she lifted her eyes slowly. Lu Yeming was here.
Dressed impeccably in a black suit, there was not a wrinkle in sight on the exquisite material. A cold, arrogant aura surrounded permeated through his elegant, restrained demeanor.
Lu Yeming stood in front of her as he looked down at her from above, seeing her in her pathetic state. The right side of her face was already swelling up after the slap from General Yue.
He looked at her deeply before reaching out to caress her the right side of her face. As his finger brushed against her face, his expression was filled with pity and love.
“Does it hurt?” he asked in a hoarse voice.
Jun Xiqing shut her eyes and laughed sarcastically.
Lu Yeming leaned forward and pressed his forehead against hers, his breath intertwining with hers. “I haven’t hurt you a single time even after you’ve hit me multiple times. Qingqing, stop letting yourself suffer, alright?
“As long as you nod and agree to marry me, I’ll deal with this piece of trash for you and no one will ever dare to mess with you again.”
Jun Xiqing shut her eyes and two bright tears rolled her face. “Lu Yeming, no matter how strong someone is, there’s no way their whole life will be smooth-sailing. Three years ago, there was a time when my country was on the verge of breaking down as well.
“But even then, the me from back then wasn’t as pathetic as I am now. Even then, I didn’t feel as though the skies were so dark I would never see light gain or cry like I’m doing so now.”
Jun Xiqing’s trembling lips moved as she let the tears stream down her face. “That day, you told me on the phone that Mu Yanyan loved you for real. But what about my love for you, Lu Yeming?
“How cruel must you be to tell me that another woman loved you? When you sent me that text message three years ago, even Jun Xiyan knew not to let me see it. She knew that if I saw it, I would definitely return to find you.
“It’s not that I don’t want to listen to you, and it’s not that I want to keep quarreling with you. It’s because you didn’t even show me a shred of warmth when I lost everything and you knew I loved my brother.
“You don’t understand. You don’t understand anything. All you have to do is hug me. Just hug me and everything will be fine. But even that is something you refuse to give.”
Lu Yeming heard her say all this hurriedly through her tears, her small face sobbing in his hands. This was probably the first time he had ever seen her cry so hard.
The youngest daughter of the Jun Family had shouldered too many burdens for the past 23 years. She loved him, but there were countless obstacles between them, like Mu Yanyan.
She couldn’t make a single mistake or people would say that her intelligence had dropped.
She couldn’t show even a bit of weakness, or people would say that she was becoming weak.
She could only be something akin to a god, someone who couldn’t show even a bit of vulnerability.
But she was only 23.
Jun Chulin had brought her up in the President’s residence for so many years, sheltering her from the evils outside. She had never fallen in love before, nor had she experienced such feelings before. The moment she was let into the real world, misfortune befell her. She had met Lu Yeming and had her head and heart messed up so many times.
There was no one she could have turned too.
She didn’t even have time to reminisce about better days.
All she could do was raise her head and continue forward.
Never had she lived for herself before.
Lu Yeming felt his heart sting, as though it had been bitten by an ant, as though it had been pierced by a needle. The pain intensified and quickly spread all over his body.
He frowned as he swallowed, tasting blood in his mouth. He wanted to speak. But at that moment, Jun Xiqing suddenly smiled brightly through her tears.
“Lu Yeming, I’ve always loved you.”
