Young Master Gu, Please Be Gentle

Mu Yanyan gasped when she heard this. What rubbish collection point? This woman was too much! She was really audacious.

But Jun Xiqing didn’t look at those two again, she only turned and entered the dressing room.

Biting her lips, Mu Yanyan tugged at Lu Yeming’s sleeve. “Brother Yeming, what’s the matter with Sister Jun? If she is angry, she could just scold me. Why did she have to scold Brother Yeming as well?”

Lu Yeming lowered his eyes to look at Mu Yanyan’s hand. Mu Yanyan’s heart jumped and she immediately let go of his sleeve.

Once she let go, Lu Yeming’s handsome face was perfectly calm and appeared extremely gentle. “Not only does she like to scold people, she also likes to hit them.”

“…”

Mu Yanyan glanced up at him. Lu Yeming continued to gaze in the direction of Jun Xiqing, even though she was no longer visible. His sexy lips were curled up nonchalantly, with traces of… affection.

Had Jun Xiqing hit him before?

Jealousy swirled within Mu Yanyan’s heart. What kind of man was Lu Yeming? He shook the world at the mere age of 18 and ascended his mighty throne at 23. He was a well-loved and highly-respected Emperor. But Jun Xiqing dared to hit him?

And he actually tolerated it?

Not only that, why did he look at her with that kind of expression?

Clenched fists dug her nails into her palm. Although Lu Yeming had been very warm toward her all this while, he had never been intimate with her. He didn’t even allow her to touch his sleeve.

His warmth toward her was tinged with a sense of aloofness and untouchable depth that made him unfathomable to her. All she could do was to carefully ingratiate herself toward him.

All this time, Mu Yanyan secretly thought if she managed to get together with him one day, she must definitely learn how to hit him like Jun Xiqing did. Perhaps he would then see her as something more…

It would be the birthday party in two days. Angel had designed a custom-made gown for her, and she knew she would look stunning in it.

How could she give up this Angel custom-made gown to Jun Xiqing?

Even if Jun Xiqing went to buy another gown, how could any of those dresses compare to Angel’s designs?

Among the socialites, it had become an honor to wear a gown by Angel. It was a great satisfaction to a woman’s vanity. At this thought, Mu Yanyan was full of confidence in herself.

…

In the end, Jun Xiqing didn’t buy another gown. She shopped around at other stores, but nothing caught her fancy.

It was true that Angel’s designs held a certain allure. Once you put one on, you never wanted to look at another gown again.

Angel…

Angel…

What a lovely and enigmatic name.

Mu Yanfeng drove Jun Xiqing and Ping Ping home, with Jun Xiqing sitting at the back. She received a message on her cell phone.

It was from Lu Yeming: ‘You are not allowed to wear a v-necked dress.’

V-necked.

Huh. Hadn’t he been staring at her cleavage earlier in the shop?

Despicable!

What did it have to do with him whether she wore a v-necked dress?

“Qingqing, I already received the invitation to the birthday party. I don’t have a date yet, will you be my date?” Mu Yanfeng glanced at Jun Xiqing via the rearview mirror.

Jun Xiqing hesitated a moment. “This…”

“Qingqing, both you and I don’t have dates. We can go as good friends, right?”

“Young Master Mu, I need some time to think about it. I will give you an answer tonight.”

“Alright.”

Another message came in and Jun Xiqing opened it: ‘You seem to have gone through a second puberty.’

Second puberty?

What second puberty?

A third message came in: ‘You have become much bigger.’

What?! In an instant, she understood. She never expected him to make such crude comments.

Had he become a pervert?

Jun Xiqing immediately dragged his number into the blocked list.

…

On the other side.

Inside the Lantuo luxury car, Feng Sinan was driving while Lu Yeming was sitting in the passenger side.

Lu Yeming had his cell phone in hand and was composing a fourth message: ‘You are not allowed to attend the birthday party.’

Your message has failed to send.

Lu Yeming raised his brows. He would never forget the time three years ago when she put his number on the blocked list.

She actually blocked his number again!

When Feng Sinan glanced sideways at Lu Yeming’s cell phone, he smirked. “Yeming, to think that even you can be blocked by someone. This is truly a once-in-a-lifetime occurence.”

Faced with his friend’s ridicule, Lu Yeming’s expression didn’t change. He just started to dial Jun Xiqing’s number.

“Yeming, you have indeed never wooed a woman. Do you think you can call through now that you are on the blocked list?”

Indeed, all he heard was the mechanical voice informing him that the number he had just dialled was not available.

He glanced askance at Feng Sinan. “You are so knowledgeable about being blocked, I guess you’ve been blocked by a woman before?”

There was only one woman who would block Feng Sinan, the wealthiest man in the world.

Feng Sinan’s handsome face remained placid. “We are all brothers, there’s no need to make personal attacks now, right?”

“Where’s your cell phone?”

He tossed his own phone aside, and drew out Feng Sinan’s cell phone from the compartment. He then dialled Jun Xiqing’s number.

“Sorry, the number you have just dialled is currently busy.”

Lu Yeming continued to dial.

He was relentless.

Feng Sinan glanced at Lu Yeming again. He had already tried dialling the number over 20 times, but the other party didn’t pick up.

Lu Yeming was very focused on dialling. His chiselled face remained expressionless, but held traces of vehemence and stubbornness.

“Yeming, stop calling or my cell phone will be dead soon.”

Ignored.

Reaching out, Feng Sinan took back his cell phone.

“Give it to me.” Lu Yeming’s handsome face darkened.

Tossing the cell phone back into the compartment, Feng Sinan put his hand back on the steering wheel and chuckled. “Yeming, you have been out-of-sorts recently. I have heard a bit about what happened between you and Jun Xiqing. She’s just a woman, there’s no need to be so serious about her. For men as powerful as us, feelings are a luxury. The moment you realize that she is affecting you, you must immediately cast her away.”

Cast her away?

Lu Yeming gazed at the bright lights outside the car window. He looked at his own reflection. His face was dark, cold and anxious. It was entirely unlike himself. He had to admit that he had been acting strange these two days.

That woman Jun Xiqing was indeed affecting him.

“What, can’t bear to?” Feng Sinan asked.

“Ha.” Lu Yeming chuckled. “Should I bear to?

“She is young, beautiful, brave and smart. What I like most about her are her eyes. Even when she is sobbing, they are always full of light. A woman like her is naturally very attractive to men like us.

“Before our quarrels, she was very good to me. She showered me with kisses, hugs and sweet nothings, and was very warm and soft in bed. She would sometimes behave coquettishly like a little kitten, making one’s heart itch with endearment.

“Perhaps it is true. I really can’t bear to cast her aside.”

Feng Sinan glanced at Lu Yeming. “Yeming, this is very dangerous. You’ve probably already fallen in love with her.”

…

In the apartment.

Just as Jun Xiqing and Ping Ping returned home, the doorbell rang.
