Jun Xiqing looked at him. Even after so many years, she could still remember this scene clearly. His handsome figure hadn't faded in her memory at all as time passed.
Even though the years they had spent together had been filled with fear and trepidation, she still felt a little lucky. After all, not every girl could meet such a dignified man like Lu Yeming in their lives. He could take their breath away and amaze them for the rest of their lives.
Hearing the footsteps, Lu Yeming turned around from the balcony and looked over. Amidst the smoke, his deep almond-shaped eyes landed on her face. "Are you done showering?"
Jun Xiqing nodded. "Mm."
Lu Yeming brought the last puff of his cigarette to his lips, furrowing his brows as he took a deep puff. When he lowered his eyes to exhale, he put out the cigarette in the ashtray on the balcony and walked in.
"You sleep first, I'll go shower."
"Oh."
Jun Xiqing walked towards the bed in the room. She wanted to let him sleep in her room after he was done showering.
After taking two steps, her slender wrist was caught by a large hand. Lu Yeming had caught her.
Jun Xiqing stopped in her tracks, looking at him with her bright eyes. "What's the matter?"
The corners of Lu Yeming's lips kicked up, and he lowered his voice even further. "Qingqing, you're not really asleep, are you?"
What did he mean?
"Qingqing, wait for me, hm?"
His fingers, which were covered with faint fingerprints, caressed her wrist.
Her delicate skin rippled and Jun Xiqing's heart skipped a beat. She felt that what he was trying to express was already suggestive enough. She quickly retracted her hand. "I'm going to sleep."
…
Jun Xiqing lay on the soft bed, covered with a silk blanket. The room was very quiet and it was easy to fall asleep, but she didn't feel sleepy.
The sound of running water could be heard from the bathroom. He was showering.
Soon, the bathroom door opened with a click, and a refreshing fragrance wafted out. Lu Yeming was done showering.
Jun Xiqing closed her eyes, burying her delicate body in the warm blanket again.
At this moment, Lu Yeming walked over. A part of the bed beside him had collapsed and the silk blanket was lifted. He pressed himself against her from behind.
Jun Xiqing could smell his clean, masculine scent, followed by his muscular chest. He stretched his hand out, placing it on her slender waist as he called her in a low voice, "Qingqing."
Jun Xiqing did not open her eyes, nor did she answer him.
Lu Yeming's hand slid up her waist. "Did you use the breast pump tonight?"
"…"
Why was he still thinking about this?
Jun Xiqing quickly pressed his hand down. "Lu Yeming, go back to your room and sleep."
Lu Yeming bent down and kissed her snow-white earlobe. "Qingqing, I'm leaving tomorrow. When you open your eyes, you really won't be able to see me anymore. I don't know when we'll meet again. Are you sure you want to chase me away tonight?"
Was he trying to trick her?
Jun Xiqing bit down on her lower lip. "Lu Yeming, we haven't sorted out our relationship yet. I don't want to have sex with you. You haven't touched me for a year and you need to settle your physiological needs. But women aren't like that. We have sex for love."
"Ha." Lu Yeming gave a low laugh. "I don't agree with your sexism. You women have sex for love, but aren't we men the same? I don't know about other men, but I do. "
Jun Xiqing's long lashes quivered and she slowly opened her eyes.
"I do have physiological needs, but if I wasn't waiting for you, I wouldn't have waited for a year. Qingqing, I just want to have sex with you."
Sometimes, Jun Xiqing felt that he was really straightforward in bed. He said that he just wanted to have sex with her.
"Lu Yeming …"
Before Jun Xiqing could finish her words, he reached over and put something on her neck.
What was it?
Jun Xiqing lowered her eyes to look.
love。
This was something that Madam Xuanji had left for him when she was still alive. She wanted him to give it to the girl he loved the most. He had been wearing it around his neck all these years.
Now, he was going to give it to her.
Lu Yeming had given it to her.
Lu Yeming pinched her slender waist and turned her around gently. His tall and handsome body was pressed against hers, still damp from the water vapor. He was exceptionally charming.
His deep almond-shaped eyes landed on her small face and he said slowly, "Qingqing, there's nothing to explain between me and Mo 'er. I don't need to explain anything to anyone.
"Mo 'er and I grew up together and she accompanied me for more than twenty years. She will forever be the one person in my life that I can never replace. For so many years, she was the only warmth that I could grasp in my hands. I loved her, loved her gentleness like a mother or a sister. She was also the first girl that I fell in love with. Over the years, I gave all of my familial love and love to her. She became someone that I yearned for but couldn't get. For Mo' er, my heart was filled with lovesickness."
"I used to think that I would live like this for the rest of my life. Love Mo 'er didn't affect me at all. I could plan my future path well. Imperial power, status, and even find a woman that I liked and have a son with.
"I thought that I would live like this forever, that I would be alone for the rest of my life. Until I met you."
Lu Yeming cupped Jun Xiqing's face with his large palms, nuzzling his nose against her delicate skin. He didn't hide his infatuation with her at all. "Qingqing, I like you very much. From the first time I saw you, I liked you very much."
"You're so different from all the other girls I know. You're even more different from Mo 'er. You're smart, courageous, and you're always able to catch my eye. I've always wanted to control you, but you've been breaking free of my control time and time again. Slowly … I've lost control.
"I've always known that I liked you, but I didn't know if I was in love with you. It was only until the day you left with Bai Ling and left me that the spot in my heart that I had bloomed for Mo 'er suddenly … withered away. I let go of my obsession with Mo' er for so many years. Only then did I realize that Mo 'er had already left and you were already in my heart.
"Qingqing, I've loved two women in my life. One is Mo 'er, and the other is you. Now Mo' er is far away and you're in my heart.
"Qingqing, you'll never know how happy I was when I found out that Pipi was my son. I used to be lonely for Mo 'er, but now I'm filled to the brim with you and your son. I love my son, but I love you even more.
"Qingqing, I love you."
PS: All this while, many people have suspected that Yeming's love for Mo 'er wasn't love, but pure familial love. No, it's familial love. Yeming has given everything to Mo' er. Mo 'er is the first girl Yeming has ever loved. I know that many of Qingqing's fans will find it hard to accept this, but that's how love is interpreted.
This batch of readers is extremely difficult to lead. Please don't let any more readers say that they think it's familial love, but the author insists that it's love. Ni Shang can only give them a question mark.
