Chapter 1126: He Does Not Love Her

Lu Yeming’s right-hand man, Fan Men brought over an exquisite box.

He had a gift for her?

Jun Xiqing looked at the box, raising her guard, he couldn’t possibly be that nice. This man was devious to the core.

But she smiled. “I’ll have to thank West Duke for your praises then.”

The maid took the box over from Fan Men.

Zhu Qing looked at Lu Yeming, asking, “West Duke, I’m honored that you’re here to witness our engagement ceremony. I’ve heard that you’ve been looking for a duchess the past year. I wonder who’s the one you’ll eventually settle your eyes on?”

The news of the West Duke looking for a duchess had been spreading around, everyone was waiting to see his future duchess. For Lu Yeming to choose her, she must be truly outstanding.

Everyone’s gazes were focused on them. “That’s right, we’re curious about who’s your ideal type.”

“West Duke, my daughter has just come back from her further studies overseas. She really admires you.”

“West Duke, the same goes for my daughter. She’s multi-talented in many aspects.”…

Everyone started promoting their daughters, the socialites looked at Lu Yeming coyly, full of admiration for him.

Tsk tsk. She hadn’t expected this hypocrite to be so popular with women.

But it had nothing to do with her.

She just had to stand aside and watch the drama.

A pair of deep-set eyes riveted on her face. Lu Yeming suddenly looked over, his bass voice rang out. “My ideal type is probably… someone like Miss Jun.”

The crowd went silent, so silent you could hear a pin drop.

Everyone’s gazes landed on Jun Xiqing in an instant.

Jun Xiqing was stunned. W-What did he just say?

“West Duke is really good at giving praises, thank you for your kindness,” Jun Xiqing said as she turned around to look at Zhu Qing. “Brother Zhu, it’s the auspicious hour, let’s exchange rings.”

“Alright.” Zhu Qing held Jun Xiqing’s hand, walking towards the podium.

Lu Yeming looked at Jun Xiqing’s lithe figure, he remained expressionless, his eyes just like two whirlpools and no one could ever fathom his thoughts.

It was said that West Duke, Lu Yeming, and the Silver Mask King, Xuan Ying, who mesmerized countless women were the devilish duo. Xuan Ying was evil and brutal while Lu Yeming was the elegant yet unscrupulous one. They were both extremely dangerous.

“Alright, let’s have President Zhu put on the ring for Miss Jun.”

Zhu Qing held a ring in his hand and Jun Xiqing reached her hand over, he was almost about to put on the ring for her…

Lu Yeming stood in the center of the lobby, watching the scene. The corners of his lips kicked up.

Boom! The doors opened again and someone rushed in. “President, Miss Jun, bad news! Commander Jun has been ambushed and has sustained severe injuries. His whereabouts are unknown.”

What?!

The entire crowd gasped.

He hadn’t put on the ring for her yet and Jun Xiqing quickly retracted her hand, going down from the podium. The cold breeze blew the ends of her white mesh skirt around and she quickly disappeared.

…

The engagement ceremony was called off and everyone was gossiping about it.

Country Z was already undergoing a political turmoil but Commander Jun had even disappeared with the Wuling Iron Steed Troop. The news only served to add on to the instability.

It was the sign of an impending major upheaval.

Lu Yeming remained composed. When a few CEOs walked over to network with him, he just replied without putting in too much attention.

He heard a commotion. “Look, the daughter of East Duke, Ye Ruge is here!”

Among the four most powerful dukes in line, Ye Ruge was the only woman. She was certainly capable and exuded a strong aura.

Lu Yeming lifted his eyes, looking over. A blazing red figure appeared before his eyes. It was indeed Ye Ruge.

Ye Ruge was a female warrior with charming looks. She was headstrong and just like a wild horse that couldn’t be easily tamed. All these years, umpteen men had gone to the Ye family, asking for her betrothal but they had all been chased out by her using her whip.

There was no man in the world who could captivate her and make her want to be with him.

“Excuse me.” Lu Yeming turned around and left.

…

Along the corridor, Lu Yeming walked along the custom-made carpets with steady footsteps. The lighting shone on him, the gentle glow accentuating his already good looking features, making them so even more godly.

A blazing red figure chased after him. Ye Ruge took out her whip, flinging it out in his direction. Lu Yeming’s gaze sharpened, he lifted his arm, grabbing the whip that came in his way.

Yanking on it, Ye Ruge’s body just flew in his direction.

Grasping the woman’s shoulder, he pressed her against the world, pressing himself on her.

Ye Ruge’s back knocked against the wall and it hurt. Lifting her eyes to look at the man, she suddenly stretched her arms out and hugged his neck, wrapping her legs around his trim waist.

Lu Yeming’s facial features were indecipherable, he exuded a devilish charm while grasping her waist, slamming her body against the wall.

Ye Ruge was usually shrewd, a tough character who could make a few muscular men cry and beg for mercy using her whip. But now, she hugged the man, completely tamed by him as she lifted her head, acting coquettishly. “It hurts, don’t be so forceful!”

…

Jun family.

Wu Qin reported the situation to Jun Xiqing and she pursed her lips, keeping her cool. “You may leave first. I’ll go change out of my clothes and head over to the Vice President’s residence later.”

“Understood.”

The Wuling Iron Steed Troop’s Vice Commander, Wu Qin respected Jun Xiqing very much. He took his leave.

Jun Xiqing changed into a new set of clothes, sitting in front of her dresser while combing her long hair. She saw the exquisite box in front of the dresser. It was… an engagement gift from Lu Yeming.

What did he give her?

Jun Xiqing put down her comb, opening the gift box. An ancient book was inside.

It seemed really old.

He gave her a book?

His face just flashed past in Jun Xiqing’s mind, she hadn’t expected a scoundrel like him to be so refined and give her a book.

Jun Xiqing picked up the book, flipping open a page. There were two figurines, a man and a woman in a peculiar position.

Knitting her brows, Jun Xiqing was confused. What did it mean? She didn’t understand it at all.

She had been raised by Uncle Jun at the President’s residence since young and was definitely well-red, but she hadn’t seen such a book before.

Flipping open the rest of her pages, she tried to comprehend it. Suddenly, everything seared into her mind. This was?

She flipped to the last page, he had signed off—-Let’s practice together and learn from each other if the opportunity ever arises.

—-Lu Yeming.

Jun Xiqing sprung up from the chair, her face crimson red. She had learned of his perverted ways when they were in the cubicle together but she seriously hadn’t expected him to be this perverted.

He had given her a pornographic book!

Despicable!!!

—-Let’s practice together and learn from each other if the opportunity ever arises.

He even left such words behind!

Practice what? Who wanted to practice it with him?

He clearly knew that she had been betrothed to Zhu Qing, and yet he continued saying such suggestive words.

Jun Xiqing was still young, only 20 years old and she knew nothing about relationships. Now, he had taught her about it.

She was witty and could figure out things at first try. She wasn’t ignorant regarding such matters initially but after perusing through the booklet, she could not unsee it.

Matters between a man and a woman were… so explicit.

She picked up the book, wanting to tear it into two halves.

Knock knock. She could hear Jun Xiyan’s voice from outside. Qingqing, are you inside?”

Damn. Elder Sister was here!

Jun Xiqing quickly hid the book inside her drawer. “I’m here.”

Thud. The room door opened and Jun Xiyan stepped inside.

Jun Xiyan looked at Jun Xiqing. “Qingqing, why is your face so red?”

Was she blushing?

Jun Xiqing lifted her eyes, looking at herself in the mirror. She blushed crimson, just like a beautiful rose.

What had happened to her?

She lifted her hands, covering both cheeks.

“Qingqing, I heard that the West Duke came today. He even said some inappropriate words during the engagement party?”

Inappropriate words…

She recalled his words—-My ideal type is someone like Miss Jun.

Who knew what his purpose was?

It sounded like an indirect confession of his, but he had left some gaps for her to ponder over it.

“Qingqing, remember our warning? West Duke is a very dangerous character, you must never be fooled by his appearance. It’s best if you stay away from him!”

Jun Xiqing had listened to those words for the umpteenth time. She held Jun Xiyan’s hand, acting spoiled. “Elder Sister, I know it already. I’ve never forgotten, so don’t repeat it anymore. I still have something to attend to, I’ll leave first.”

Jun Xiqing quickly got up and ran away.

Looking at her from the back, Jun Xiyan shook her head.

Jun Xiling walked over, asking, “Elder Sister, what’s the matter? Is Qingqing being naughty again?”

They really pampered their younger sister like a precious baby.

Jun Xiyan shook her head. “Uncle Jun has passed away and even our parents passed away right after him, leaving us a rocky Country Z and the Jun family. Even Eldest Brother is in trouble and our citizens don’t have that much confidence in us now. But the one thing I’m most afraid about is the West Duke’s arrival.”

Jun Xiling looked stern. ‘One year ago, the West Duke sent a betrothal letter to us, wanting to marry Qingqing but we tore the letter and rejected him at once. Up until now, Qingqing still doesn’t know about it yet.”

“Ha,” Jun Xiqing sneered, “Sister, do you remember what title Qingqing would get if she married the West Duke?”

“Of course, he only wants to take her as his consort.”

A consort was just a concubine, only the West Duchess would be the West Duke’s legitimate wife.

He only wanted to take Jun Xiqing as his consort.

Who was his Duchess going to be?

After they rejected him, there wasn’t any further news from the West Duke. The West Palace started searching for a suitable woman to become the West Duchess.

“West Duke is probably here for Qingqing. Remember when Qingqing revealed herself in the Capital, with her unique techniques for taming wolves, the Wuling Iron Steed Troop and her ravishing beauty. Which one of these qualities has the West Duke laid his eyes on? Or does he want to possess all of it?”

“This man is ambitious and unscrupulous to gain power and status. Women are merely his playthings, he has never invested real feelings. He does not love Qingqing.”
