He didn't say anything else.
All he did was whisper in her ear and apologize to her over and over again.
The two of them maintained this posture. In the corridor, his tall figure held her slender figure tightly in his arms.
Jun Xiqing stopped crying. She reached out and pushed his hand away. "Lu Yeming, I've lost so badly this time. I don't want to see you ever again."
She lifted her foot and ran out.
She had lost this time.
Regarding that bet, the bet of who would fall in love first, she had lost so badly.
She had never once said that she liked him.
Even when they were deeply in love in the small mountain village, she hadn't said it despite his coaxing.
Now, this' I've lost so badly 'was the best way for a beautiful girl like Jun Xiqing to express her love for him.
This fate had been wrong from the start.
So it had ended before they had even started.
Jun Xiqing left.
Lu Yeming stood on the spot, watching her delicate figure disappear from his sight. His hands slowly clenched into fists by his sides. This was the first time he clearly realized that everyone had left him.
…
Jun Xiqing rode on her wolf and rushed to the North, bringing the legendary Wolf Iron Steed Troop back to Country Z. They conquered the city and used just two days to capture Lei Ze. Since then, the Jun Family had once again stepped onto the stage of history.
That day, Lu Yeming arrived at the bar. He took off his grey coat and handed it to Fan Men, wanting to enter.
At this moment, he heard the rich and powerful people in the room talking.
— -Do you know what the hottest news is these two days?
— -Of course we know, the youngest daughter of the Jun Family is the best in the world!
A few of the rich and powerful people were gossiping excitedly. "Country Z has changed in the North. The youngest daughter of the Jun Family, Jun Xiqing, rode on her wolf at dawn and her name has shaken the entire world. Now everyone is talking about how beautiful the youngest daughter of the Jun Family is. I'm afraid that she will step onto the political stage at the age of 20 and become the first female empress in a thousand years. She will become a legend."
"The youngest daughter of the Jun Family has always been kept in her room and hidden so well that we only found out about it now."
"I wonder how beautiful the youngest daughter of the Jun Family is?"
One of the dignitaries immediately took out a painting. He slowly unfurled the scroll, and on it was a painting meticulously drawn by an artist.
"Come and look, this is the youngest daughter of the Jun Family, Jun Xiqing!"
Lu Yeming lifted his deep and narrow eyes, looking at the painting. He hadn't gone to send her off on the morning of the day.
However, he had often heard news about her in the past two days. He had heard that she had ridden a pack of wolves that day, and the sound of the galloping wolves had resounded through the sky. Both sides of the road had been filled with onlookers, and they had been shocked by her beauty. The Jun Family's youngest daughter had spread like wildfire, and countless famous masters had come to imitate her stunning appearance.
Lu Yeming looked at the painting. The sky had just brightened and a crack appeared in the distant sky. The morning sun shone with golden rays and Jun Xiqing was riding on her wolf. She was dressed in a long white dress, her hair flowing in the wind like a waterfall, drawing beautiful arcs in the air.
She led the Wolf Iron Steed Troop and the Wolf Iron Steed Troop followed behind her, kicking up a cloud of dust wherever they went.
This scene was engraved in the artist's painting. No matter how much time passed, it would never fade.
From then on, the youngest daughter of the Jun Family, Jun Xiqing, would be written into a legend.
Lu Yeming looked at the painting, his eyes calm and unperturbed. But after looking at it for a long time …
"Master," Fan Men said in a low voice.
Lu Yeming retracted his gaze and didn't enter the room. Instead, he turned around to leave. He instructed, "Tell Silver Mask King that I have something on. I'll head back first."
"Yes."
…
In the luxurious room.
The rich and powerful people were gossiping excitedly. "Silver Mask King, come and see the youngest daughter of the Jun Family."
Xuan Ying had been sitting on the black leather sofa the whole time, his handsome and muscular back leaning lazily against it. Fan Men whispered something into his ear and he nodded, indicating that he understood.
After Fan Men left, Xuan Ying lifted his eyes, looking at the painting with narrowed eyes.
His handsome face was impassive, as though he wasn't interested. He lowered his eyes and took a sip of the wine in his hand.
The few influential officials exchanged glances. Now that the West Duke was going to rule the world, Xuan Ying would naturally be the Prime Minister who was second only to the West Duke and above everyone else. The two of them were the most powerful men in Country A now.
But these two men had been cold and distant day after day, retreating from the public eye.
Xuan Ying hadn't come out for a long time.
Ever since the explosion, they hadn't seen him for a long time.
They heard that he had dismissed all the beautiful concubines and maids in the Snow Mountain Residence, only bringing his mother, Yu Ji, back to stay.
The rich and powerful people exchanged glances. "Silver Mask King, it's so boring to drink alone. I've gotten my hands on a new product recently, let's help you relieve your boredom."
With that, a girl walked in.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and pour Silver Mask King some wine!"
"Yes."
The girl quickly walked over to Xuan Ying, bending down to pour Xuan Ying some wine.
Xuan Ying lifted his eyes to take a look. This girl had gone through plastic surgery, her face was exactly the same as Feng Lingxue's.
Although she had gone through plastic surgery, Feng Lingxue's cold face was so beautiful that it made one's heart flutter.
Xuan Ying took a few more glances at the girl's face.
The rich and powerful people were all shrewd. Once they saw that Xuan Ying was interested in this girl, they laughed. "You're so lucky, Silver Mask King has taken a liking to you. Hurry up and show off your skills, serve Silver Mask King well."
As they teased her, the girl's face turned red. She knelt beside Xuan Ying's legs, moving closer to him shyly.
The man exuded a cold and hard aura. His two long legs, which were wrapped in black trousers, were firm and strong, and could not be touched. That mature man, coupled with the double charm of power and status, simply made a girl's heart beat like a drum.
She leaned over carefully, stretching her hand out to undo Xuan Ying's belt.
But she didn't manage to undo it. Xuan Ying got up. "You guys have fun, I'm leaving first."
Xuan Ying left.
…
Ah Zhou had gone to drive the car. Xuan Ying stood by the roadside, one hand in his pocket, the other holding a cigarette.
The cold night breeze made him feel cold. Amidst the smoke, he furrowed his brows.
He had been trying his best not to think about her.
But when he saw the exact same face, he suddenly lost control, as though something was about to gush out of his chest.
He lowered his head and continued smoking.
At this moment, he heard a gentle voice. "Mu Mu, do you want to eat cotton candy?"
"Yes, yes ~"
"Mommy will buy you one then."
Xuan Ying froze, lifting his head abruptly.
On the opposite side of the road, under the dim lights, Xia Ling stood there in a white coat, holding Mu Mu's hand.
