No one responded to him.
Silence.
Lu Yeming held the popcorn in his hands. His unfocused eyes froze for a moment before he said in a low voice, "Qingqing … Qingqing, are you there? Qingqing, if you're here, make a sound. "
No one.
The place where Jun Xiqing had been standing was now empty.
Lu Yeming slowly stretched out his large palm, searching the air in front of him. He wanted to feel her soft, smooth skin. He wanted to feel her sweet scent and breath.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't feel anything.
"Qingqing … Qingqing …"
Lu Yeming's unfocused eyes looked around. His handsome face was still calm, and no one could tell that there was anything amiss.
But the world was dark.
He tried his best to look, but he still couldn't see her delicate figure.
She had left.
"Sir." The girl who had been talking to Jun Xiqing just now walked over and said in a low voice, "I saw your girlfriend leave just now."
She had really left!
She had left him alone in the movie theater.
Lu Yeming arched his brows and smiled politely. "Thank you."
With that, Lu Yeming left.
The girl looked at Lu Yeming. Lu Yeming's footsteps were very steady. His tailored trousers exuded a sharp and mesmerizing aura with every step he took. But very quickly, he knocked into a rubbish bin.
"Clang!" The trash can made a loud noise.
Lu Yeming was a little disheveled. As a man who had been in power for so many years, he had always been calm and composed. But now, there was a tinge of panic on his face.
At first, it wasn't obvious, but slowly, it became more and more obvious.
At this moment, the girl's boyfriend walked over. "Qianqian, what are you looking at?"
Qianqian pointed at Lu Yeming's handsome back view. "Look at that man. He's really pitiful …"
…
Lu Yeming took the elevator downstairs and exited the mall. He stood on the streets.
Taking out his cell phone from his pocket, he dialed a number.
The ringtone on the other end rang and someone picked up the call. Jun Xiqing's clear voice came through the phone. "Hello, Lu Yeming, I've already gone back. You can go watch the movie by yourself."
"Qingqing, where are you?"
"I'm in the car."
"Qingqing, come back now. I'll wait for you outside. You'll be able to see me once you get out of the car. I even bought your favorite popcorn. We promised to go to the movies together. Just one night. Can you accompany me?" "Qingqing?
At this moment, Jun Xiqing was in a taxi. She held her phone in one hand and looked at the neon lights flashing by outside the window. Her red lips curved upwards, revealing a sarcastic and self-deprecating smile. "Lu Yeming, why are you speaking to me in such a submissive manner? Is it so important that I accompany you tonight?"
"Qingqing …"
"If being humble is of any use, then Lu Yeming, I'm begging you right now. Being with you is really tiring. Let's not continue like this, okay? I hate how fickle you are, and I hate how fickle I am with you. We were wrong from the start, and every step we took was wrong."
Lu Yeming gripped his cell phone, his eyes slowly turning red. He repeated, "Qingqing, come back, please?"
"Not good. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first."
Jun Xiqing was about to hang up.
"Qingqing, I'm blind."
Just as Jun Xiqing was about to hang up, Lu Yeming's low voice came from the other end of the line.
Qingqing, I'm blind.
He said he was blind.
Jun Xiqing's pupils contracted. Her ears were about to explode. What was he saying?
"Lu Yeming, you …"
"Qingqing, I left in a hurry two nights ago because I was blind. I didn't want you to see me in such a pathetic state, so I asked Ye Ruge to chase you away."
He was blind.
He couldn't see!
Jun Xiqing forgot to breathe. How could this be?
"How … did you become blind?"
"I used you to exchange for Mo 'er that day. When I went back to look for you, my cornea was damaged by a landmine."
So that was how he had become blind.
He had been blind for a long time.
But he had never told her.
Jun Xiqing's long lashes fluttered. A few seconds later, she looked at the driver in front. "Sir, turn around."
…
The taxi soon arrived at the entrance of the shopping mall. Jun Xiqing opened the door and alighted from the car. Just as he had said over the phone, she saw his tall and handsome figure standing on the bustling streets, cold and aloof.
Jun Xiqing walked over and called out, "Lu Yeming!"
Lu Yeming heard her lively voice. She was calling his name. He strode forward, stretching out his muscular arms to pull her into his muscular chest.
Burying his handsome face in her hair, Lu Yeming took in her sweet milky scent and an indescribable warmth. "Qingqing, you're back. You're finally back."
Jun Xiqing's hands were by her side. She didn't respond, only letting him hug her quietly. "Lu Yeming, go back to Country A. I'll handle the matters of the Mu Family Fort. You should go and get your eyes treated."
Lu Yeming's tall body suddenly froze and he slowly let go of her.
His deep almond-shaped eyes landed on her face. "What do you mean?"
"Lu Yeming, you're blind. It has nothing to do with me."
When she came back just now, she had called out to him from behind — -Lu Yeming. When he heard her voice, he was filled with joy and joy. Something in his bones and blood was quickly awakened and ignited.
But now, her words — -You're blind. It has nothing to do with me. It was as if a hand had reached out from the darkness and pushed him straight into the abyss.
"You were the one who used me to exchange for Sister Mo 'er. If it wasn't for Bai Ling, Pipi and I would have been long dead. Lu Yeming, I won't feel sorry for you."
Lu Yeming was still expressionless. His deep eyes were unreadable. Many people had asked him why he didn't tell her about his blindness. He had thought so too. His blindness had nothing to do with her.
He had almost lost both of them.
He was the one who had let go of her hand and pushed her away.
He didn't tell her because he didn't want her to see him in such a pathetic state. More importantly, he didn't want to embarrass himself like he was now.
She was right. They had been wrong from the start.
Lu Yeming's thin lips curved upwards and he suddenly laughed. "Idiot, I lied to you. How could you believe it? I'm not blind. It was just a little story I made up. Qingqing, don't take it seriously. "
What did he say?
He said he lied to her?
Jun Xiqing's hands instantly balled into fists by her side. She kicked his trousers. "Bastard, I don't want to see you ever again."
Jun Xiqing turned around and ran away.
She left?
This time, she really left.
Lu Yeming turned around with the popcorn in his arms. At this moment, a motorcycle sped over.
Jun Xiqing suddenly stopped in her tracks and quickly turned around …
