In just one second, he had memorized it.
There was no pop-up window for free reading!
She really hated this man.
He thought that he was infallible when he 'liked' her and always had a way to make her fall for him.
"Lu Yeming, let go!"
She had underestimated his fighting ability. Even though he was seriously injured, she still couldn't push him away.
Lu Yeming hugged her tightly, his pale lips lingering on her face. The rain continued to pour, drenching them completely. "Qingqing, be good. Don't leave, hm?"
"Lu Yeming, your wound is inflamed and you're drenched in the rain. You won't be able to last much longer. When you collapse, I can still leave!"
Lu Yeming grasped her smooth shoulders and turned her around, cupping her small face. He didn't know how much he liked her now. Women were like delicate flowers, he would patiently coax them, but he had never begged someone to stay like this before.
But she wasn't obedient.
He bent down and kissed her red lips.
Jun Xiqing's eyes narrowed. She still couldn't get used to kissing him. He kissed her intensely, stirring his tongue in her honeyed belly. The sound of water droplets was too intimate and extravagant. This was something only lovers would do.
"Lu Yeming, let go!"
She pushed him away forcefully.
Her movement tore at the wound on his back. Lu Yeming's tall body swayed twice before he knelt down on one knee in the rain with a loud thud.
A large palm was placed on the ground. Tiny droplets of water rolled over his overly exquisite facial features. His thin eyebrows and eyes were stained with a layer of coldness.
Jun Xiqing turned around to leave.
She had only taken two steps when she heard the man say in a hoarse voice, "Qingqing, you're the only one. I'll marry you. When I rule the world, I'll implement monogamy and you'll be my only wife."
Jun Xiqing slowed down. A pair for a lifetime?
He had already promised.
Many young couples would also promise to be a pair for a lifetime at the beginning of their relationship. But most of them would break up after a while.
This man was indomitable, and the promises he made were as heavy as Mount Tai. Even if you couldn't become the person in his heart, you would receive all of his pampering, love, and glory.
That seemed pretty good.
Compared to those immature Amorous Flowers and Snow Moons, he was mature, deep, and powerful to the point of being mesmerizing.
She still remembered that when they were in Camino, she had asked him to abolish polygamy and implement monogamy, but he had refused.
But now he had made a promise.
Jun Xiqing's red lips curved upwards. He hadn't let her down. He hadn't let her down.
Her footsteps did not stop, but left.
She still had to go.
Lu Yeming narrowed his eyes and his Adam's apple bobbed. A few seconds later, the corners of his lips twitched and his eyes were bloodshot.
He said slowly, "Qingqing, if you dare to leave, I will wash the Northern Lands with blood and make you pay a terrible price."
The Northern Lands referred to Country Z, Jun Xiqing's home.
In the future, when he ruled the world, he would personally lead an army to trample her home, capture her city, and stain her clothes with blood.
This was the price she had to pay for leaving today.
Jun Xiqing stopped in her tracks. She turned around, looking at the man kneeling in the rain in shock and fear.
She trembled all over. This … demon!
His wet fringe covered his cold, almond-shaped eyes. He looked at her and slowly stretched out his hand. "Come here."
Jun Xiqing walked over numbly and mechanically.
"I've said it before, you can't escape, Qingqing."
Jun Xiqing closed her eyes. The rain continued to pour and her heart felt cold. After a long while, she said softly, "Lu Yeming, do you believe that I won't … kill you?"
Everything would be resolved once she killed him.
Lu Yeming's thin lips curved into a cold smile. "Do you still remember our bet? Whoever falls in love first loses."
"You can't bear to kill me."
Jun Xiqing's body froze, not moving an inch.
Lu Yeming closed his eyes and collapsed.
…
The sky turned dark and the rain got heavier. The old wooden hut swayed in the heavy rain.
The doctor bandaged Lu Yeming's wound again and said, "Miss, this gentleman's wound is infected and he's drenched in the rain. He's running a high fever of 42 degrees Celsius. I've given him some medicine, but if he doesn't survive the night, then he won't make it."
"Thank you, doctor."
After the doctor left, Jun Xiqing closed the door and sat by the bed. She looked at Lu Yeming, who was lying on the bed.
Lu Yeming was still unconscious, muttering to himself, "Cold …"
He felt cold.
There was only a blanket on the wooden board. His long body was cold.
Jun Xiqing thought about many things.
If she killed him, she would be free. All the danger would be resolved.
But she knew in her heart that Country A, where the imperial power was unstable, needed him.
And could she really kill him?
He was right. She couldn't do it.
Jun Xiqing took out a piece of paper and a pen. She wrote something on the paper. Finally, she held his finger and pressed a fingerprint on it.
She folded the paper and kept it safe for her.
After doing all this, she felt much more relaxed.
She reached out her little hand and touched his forehead.
The next moment, her slender wrist was grasped by his large palm. He craved the softness of her skin. "Cold … cold …"
There weren't any extra blankets here.
Jun Xiqing bit down on her moist lower lip with her white teeth. She lifted the blankets and burrowed into his arms.
She had done it with him once, but he had left after that. This was the first time the two of them had slept on the same bed.
Jun Xiqing wrapped her slender arms around his trim waist, pressing her soft body against his cold skin.
After a while, his body seemed to become even colder.
Perhaps he really wouldn't survive the night.
Jun Xiqing looked at his pale, handsome face and tightly pursed lips. He exuded a sickly frailty in his injured state, just like a cold and aloof young master from a prestigious family.
She hesitated for a moment, then reached out and unbuttoned her clothes. Her small hand also reached under his clothes, touching his muscular and narrow waist …
One warm, one cold.
One soft, one hard.
Pressed against his cold skin, Jun Xiqing curled up her shoulders and shivered in his arms.
But her body temperature was scorching.
No matter how cold it was, hugging was the best way for a man and a woman to keep warm.
His body temperature was also warming up, but it wasn't obvious.
Since she had decided to save him, she had decided on her path in the future. Jun Xiqing didn't hesitate anymore. She lowered her long lashes and her hand trailed down his trim waist …
Lu Yeming had a dream.
He was walking in the desert. The sun was blazing in the sky. His throat was parched and his body temperature was getting hotter.
Suddenly, he opened his deep almond-shaped eyes and saw the person on top of him.
Jun Xiqing was sitting on top of him. Her long, black hair cascaded down her shoulders. Her skin was as smooth as jade and glowed.
