She had called him Hubby …
Lu Yeming's handsome eyes closed, his long and narrow eyes quickly turning red.
"Hubby, it's great that you're still alive. I've been believing that you're not dead for the past year because I could feel his breathing. It's as if you've always been by my side. Now, I can finally see you again."
Jun Xiqing's hands tightened as she hugged his trim waist tightly. Only by hugging him tightly could she feel a sense of security. Only then could she be sure that everything in front of her wasn't a dream.
Lu Yeming's Adam's apple bobbed up and down before he turned around. His deep and narrow eyes landed on Jun Xiqing's ravishing face. There were two deep whirlpools in his eyes. But on the surface, he was calm and composed. No one could tell what he was feeling or what he was feeling.
"Miss, do I know you?"
What?
Jun Xiqing froze and her eyes narrowed. What was he talking about?
"Hubby, don't you recognize me?" Jun Xiqing quickly raised her hand to touch his head. She said anxiously, "Are you muddle-headed? Or is there something wrong with your body that caused you to … lose your memory? I'm Jun Xiqing, your wife."
Did he lose his memory?
How could he not recognize her?
A year ago, he had closed his eyes and she had hugged him. He had stopped breathing and his body had turned cold. She had really thought that he was dead.
Then Monk Xuanyi had taken him away. He had been gone for a year. What had happened in this one year?
Is he feeling better?
Reaching out, Lu Yeming grasped her soft hand and took it away. His thin lips curved into a faint smile. "Miss, I really don't know you. Have you ever seen a man call someone else 'Hubby' so casually?"
Jun Xiqing was pushed away and the two of them distanced themselves from each other. It was as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over Jun Xiqing's head. Her limbs were cold.
She had never imagined that the two of them would meet in such a situation.
"Hubby …"
At this moment, someone knocked on the door, interrupting Jun Xiqing's words. A gentle voice came from outside. "Brother Ming, it's me, Qianqian."
Qianqian was here.
It was already so late, but this Qianqian had actually come to look for Lu Yeming. As a woman, Jun Xiqing could sense that something was amiss.
"What's your relationship with Qianqian?" Jun Xiqing asked.
Lu Yeming raised his brows and said flirtatiously, "My girlfriend."
What? That Qianqian was his girlfriend?
Jun Xiqing's lashes quivered.
Lu Yeming's heart wrenched in pain as he watched her face turn pale. He wanted so badly to pull her into his embrace and rub her into his flesh and blood.
However, his body …
"Miss, I'll say it again. I don't know you. You've got the wrong person. I already have a girlfriend. We have a good relationship. We should get married soon, so please don't pester me anymore, lest my girlfriend misunderstands."
With that, Lu Yeming opened the door.
Qianqian walked in. She had just taken a shower and was wearing a black camisole and shorts. She was young and beautiful and was very eye-catching.
She was dressed very skimpily and a large portion of her fair skin was exposed.
It was already so late and she had come to a mature man's room dressed like that. It was so flirtatious.
"Brother Yeming, have you taken a shower? I just made some supper for you." Qianqian looked at Lu Yeming and smiled sweetly.
Jun Xiqing felt as if she had been pushed into an abyss. She almost doubted that the man in front of her was Lu Yeming.
He was just a stranger who looked like Lu Yeming!
Lu Yeming would never treat her like this.
Lu Yeming would never bear to treat her like this!
But Jun Xiqing was certain that this man in front of her was Lu Yeming.
Qianqian put down the supper and looked at Jun Xiqing in surprise. "Elder Sister, why are you here too? Are you here to look for Brother Yeming?"
Elder Sister …
Jun Xiqing thought that she wasn't old enough to be called 'Elder Sister'. But she was already 25 years old this year and this Qianqian looked like she was only in her twenties. She was just a young lady.
At this moment, Lu Yeming's deep gaze landed on her pale face. "Miss, my girlfriend is here. You can leave now."
He was chasing her away.
Jun Xiqing felt like an outsider, a third wheel. It was as if she had barged into someone else's private territory.
Her heart hurt so badly. It was as if a knife was stabbing into her heart and twisting it around. She wanted to escape.
Jun Xiqing turned around and left.
She turned back to look at Qianqian as she left the room. Qianqian had opened the supper box. "Brother Yeming, these are all your favorites. I made them myself. You must finish them all. Don't leave anything behind."
Lu Yeming gave Qianqian a gentle smile. "Thank you for your hard work."
Jun Xiqing's eyes reddened and she quickly ran away.
…
Jun Xiqing walked alone by the beach. The faith she had held onto for the past year had suddenly collapsed.
She thought that while she was working hard, he was also working hard, trying his best to find his way home.
But that wasn't the case.
He was living here peacefully and yet he didn't return to the palace to look for her or Cheng Ye.
He had really forgotten about her.
What was he doing now? He must be eating Qianqian's supper and exchanging flirtatious glances with Qianqian.
Jun Xiqing had never compared herself to other women. But she was getting older and that Qianqian was still young and still calling her Elder Sister.
Jun Xiqing suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Why?
After feeling sad, disappointed, upset and heartache, a raging fire burned in her chest. Why?
Lu Yeming was her legal husband. Why did she have to leave and give her space to him and Qianqian?
Was there something wrong with her head?
Jun Xiqing turned around and ran towards the small wooden house. She raised her hand and knocked on the door.
"Lu Yeming, open the door!"
There was no reply.
No one opened the door for her.
She was burning with anger. She had worked so hard to raise his son and protect his empire for the past year. Yet he was here having fun with a young lady. How could she let him off?
"Lu Yeming, open the door now. If you don't, I'm going to kick the door down!"
Jun Xiqing lifted her leg and really kicked the door shut. She was going to explode in anger!
With a click, the door to the wooden hut opened and a tall, handsome figure appeared by the door. Lu Yeming had opened the door.
Lu Yeming's deep gaze landed on Jun Xiqing's angry little face. Her eyes were wide with anger as she stared at him with teary eyes. Her red lips were alluring and the night breeze carried her fragrance into his nostrils. She was so beautiful outside the house.
After knowing her for so many years, this was the first time he had seen her … kick the door like a wild cat.
He found it funny and his handsome eyes were gentle. "Miss, what are you doing? Kicking the door of a man's room, is this how you should behave?"
"That's right, Elder Sister. How could you do this? You're so rude." Qianqian appeared beside Lu Yeming.
The two of them stood together, Qianqian leaning against Lu Yeming's side. Jun Xiqing felt that this scene was too glaring to her eyes. She quickly reached out with her fair hands and forcefully pushed the two of them away.
Qianqian's expression changed. "Elder Sister, what are you doing? You-"
Before she could finish speaking, Jun Xiqing had already entered the small wooden house. With a push, the eyesore Qianqian was pushed out of the house.
Ouch.
Qianqian let out a cry and almost fell flat on her face.
Lu Yeming looked at Jun Xiqing. "Miss …"
Jun Xiqing picked up the lid of her supper and smashed it on Lu Yeming's handsome face. "What are you eating? Stop eating!"
Outside the door, Qianqian looked at Jun Xiqing in shock, then at Lu Yeming. She saw the man standing tall by the door, his thin lips curving into a faint smile. There was an indescribable gentleness in his expression, as well as a hint of joy.
Bam! Jun Xiqing slammed the door shut.
After chasing Qianqian out and throwing a tantrum, Jun Xiqing instantly felt much better. Only the two of them were left in the small wooden house. Jun Xiqing took a deep breath. She felt that she had to have a good talk with Lu Yeming!
"I'm not Miss, I'm Jun Xiqing. You're Lu Yeming, my legal husband. Do you understand what I'm saying?" Jun Xiqing raised her right hand, the diamond ring on her right ring finger sparkling.
She had been wearing her wedding ring all this time.
Lu Yeming stuck one hand into his pocket and didn't move. He just leaned lazily against the wall of the small wooden house and said two simple words, "Continue."
"…"
Jun Xiqing instantly felt her arrogance diminish.
Lu Yeming was no longer the ruler of Country A. His shirt and trousers were very ordinary, but he didn't need any extravagant clothes to make him look better. He still exuded the faint aura of an emperor, that dignified and dignified aura that made one sink in and sink in.
Jun Xiqing met his gaze. "It doesn't matter whether you remember me or not. It's fine as long as I remember you. Lu Yeming, I'm going to take you away now. I'm going to take you back to our home."
She was going to take him home.
Once they were back in the palace, she would naturally get Doctor Sikong to examine his body. She would then know whether he really didn't remember her, or whether he was pretending.
Hearing this, Lu Yeming raised his handsome brows imperceptibly. Then he stretched out his long legs and approached her.
He walked over, step by step. His tall and handsome body blocked all the light, casting a silhouette in front of her.
His aura was still frightening.
Jun Xiqing took a few steps back and soon her delicate back was against the wall. "What are you doing …"
Lu Yeming reached out and raked his fingers through her silky hair, gently caressing her delicate face.
