Lu Yeming glanced at Mu Yanyan and said gently, "Hello, Miss Mu."
Mu Yanyan blushed. "I came here for dinner with my friends and bumped into President Lu. Did President Lu bring … Sister Jun here?"
Lu Yeming nodded and suddenly changed the topic. "Miss Mu, how is your sister?"
Mu Yanyan's eyes flashed at the mention of 'sister'. At this moment, she saw the man's deep gaze land on her face with a hint of a smile on his face. There was an indescribable sharpness in his eyes.
Mu Yanyan's gaze was a little conflicted and evasive, but she still met Lu Yeming's eyes generously. "Ever since that incident six years ago, my sister has been …"
Mu Yanyan was just about to continue when two bodyguards in black rushed over and reported in hushed voices, "Your Highness, bad news. Miss Jun has disappeared."
What?
Lu Yeming's handsome features darkened in an instant. He got up and left, picking up his black coat with his long fingers and putting it on.
"President Lu, where are you going? Wait for me." Mu Yanyan chased after him.
Lu Yeming walked out of the restaurant and Fan Men quickly came up to him. "Your Highness, I've checked the restaurant's surveillance cameras. There's no sign of Miss Jun. She seems to have disappeared into thin air."
"Go check the surveillance cameras. Unless she has disappeared from the face of the earth, we must find her even if we have to turn Country A upside down!"
Lu Yeming's thin lips moved coldly. His tall figure stood in the darkness, almost blending into the night.
"Yes, Your Highness. I'll do it right away." Fan Men turned to leave.
At this moment, Mu Yanyan gasped. She covered her mouth in shock. "President Lu, why did Sister Jun suddenly disappear? Could she have found out about the jade pendant? Could she have found out about her parentage …"
Mu Yanyan's words came to an abrupt halt as Lu Yeming's cold, murderous gaze landed on her.
Mu Yanyan didn't dare to say anything else.
At this moment, Fan Men said in a low voice, "Your Highness, Miss Jun has run away. Could she be with her brother, Dongfang Yu?"
"Ha." Lu Yeming sneered. "The siblings aren't that fast."
With that, he got into the bulletproof presidential limousine.
"President Lu, wait for me. Can I get in your car? Take me with you." Mu Yanyan looked at Lu Yeming hopefully.
Lu Yeming was expressionless. Without even looking at Mu Yanyan, he said in a low voice, "Drive."
The presidential limousine sped away.
…
The presidential limousine started moving. Lu Yeming lifted his eyes. He could still see Mu Yanyan in the rearview mirror.
Mu Yanyan stood at the same spot and didn't leave. Instead, she looked at the back of his car and didn't know what she was saying.
Lu Yeming's eyelids fluttered as he slowly closed them.
He replayed everything that had happened today in his mind.
"Your Highness, this is the road surveillance, but this is strange. Why can't the road surveillance detect Miss Jun's figure?"
Fan Men was even more suspicious. "How did Miss Jun escape? It took less than ten minutes for her to disappear without a trace."
Lu Yeming opened his eyes. "Stop the car!"
The sharp sound of brakes rang out, and the presidential luxury car came to an emergency stop.
"Your Highness, what's wrong?"
Lu Yeming's eyes clouded over. He gritted his teeth and said, "Turn the car around!"
The presidential limousine sped back to the restaurant.
Lu Yeming opened the back door and stood at the spot where 'Mu Yanyan' had been standing. There were pedestrians everywhere under the bright neon lights. 'Mu Yanyan' was nowhere to be seen.
'Mu Yanyan' had already left.
"Your Highness, what are you looking at?" Fan Men didn't understand.
Lu Yeming took out his cell phone from his pocket and dialed a number. "Hello, Leader Mu. Where's your daughter Mu Yanyan?"
Leader Mu's voice rang out. "President Lu, my daughter Yanyan is at home. She hasn't gone out at all. Are you looking for her? I'll get her to answer the phone … Yanyan, Yanyan!"
Leader Mu called out to Mu Yanyan passionately, but Lu Yeming hung up the phone after two beeps.
Fan Men understood everything now. 'Mu Yanyan' was actually … Miss Jun.
No wonder Miss Jun couldn't be seen on the surveillance cameras.
Miss Jun had been there all along.
This Miss Jun …
Today, she had been very quiet. So quiet that it numbed everyone's nerves. Tonight, when they came to eat Western food, she played a beautiful trick of a cicada shedding its carapace. Furthermore, she found out about her background and found out that she had a biological brother, Dongfang Yu.
Fan Men broke out in cold sweat for Jun Xiqing. She was indeed the most intelligent woman he had ever met. There was no one like her.
"Your Highness …"
Lu Yeming's hands clenched into fists by his sides, the veins on his forehead throbbing.
Now that he closed his eyes, his mind was filled with the scene just now. He had seen her in the rearview mirror. She had been standing on the spot, watching him leave.
She had left.
She hadn't said a single word. She had just left with the identity of an insignificant 'Mu Yanyan'.
She hadn't said anything about the two of them.
He knew that now that she was gone, her heart was gone too.
She had always been a courageous woman. Even though she hadn't known anything about Mu Yanyan's elder sister when she had been acting with him just now, her acting had been flawless.
She had successfully fooled him.
This was the first time in his life that Lu Yeming had lost to a woman.
Lifting his leg, Lu Yeming kicked a rubbish bin by the roadside.
His entire body was filled with a thick murderous aura, causing others to be afraid.
Two minutes later, Lu Yeming slowly opened his bloodshot eyes. They were cold and bottomless.
He said in an emotionless tone, "From now on, lock down the entire city. No one is allowed to leave. This is Country A. I want her to be unable to escape even if she has wings.
"Let Mu Yanyan stay at Peacock Terrace. It won't be so easy for the siblings to meet. Lure Dongfang Yu out first. Once we capture him, she will definitely return to my side."
Fan Men agreed to everything. "But Your Highness, what if, I'm saying what if the siblings manage to escape?"
The corners of Lu Yeming's lips kicked up into a smile. "With Mu Yutang around, where can Dongfang Yu run to?"
…
Night fell.
Jun Xiqing waved her hand and Mu Yanyan's pretty face disappeared instantly, revealing her delicate face.
She was now in an apartment. She had kicked off her high heels, stepping on the clean floor with her snow-white feet. She took off her dress and stood under the shower.
She allowed the warm water to pour down from the top of her head, drenching her completely. She reached out with her fair hands to wipe her face, revealing a pair of sparkling eyes.
