Chapter 1249: Medicine
Jun Xiqing lifted her head to look at Lu Yeming. “Do you know how to cook then?”
Lu Yeming shook his head. “I don’t.”
“Why are you teasing me about it then? You may be a young master, but I’m a pampered elder miss as well.” With that, Jun Xiqing pouted her lips.
“…”
Lu Yeming leaned against the door. “What should we do?”
They both couldn’t cook, what were they supposed to eat?
“Why don’t we cook some noodles. That should be the easiest thing to cook.”
Getting up quickly, Jun Xiqing grabbed some noodles and placed them in the pot before starting a fire.
“Aren’t you going to put some water in the pot before you cook the noodles?” Lu Yeming asked.
Jun Xiqing gave it some thought. “Aren’t we supposed to boil the noodles till they are almost done before adding the water?”
Lu Yeming had both hands in his pockets, pursing his lips. “Mm… that seems fine too.”
Thus, they came to a consensus and Jun Xiqing started the fire.
It was then that the village head suddenly appeared. “Mr Lu, Miss Jun, you don’t need to cook, just come to my house for a meal.”
Lu Yeming and Jun Xiqing looked at each other and shrugged. “Okay.”
…
The two arrived at the village head’s house, Shen Chong and a few other youngsters in the village were present too. They gathered for a meal.
The boys surrounded Jun Xiqing. “Miss Jun, this rose is for you. I just picked it, it’s really fresh.”
“Miss Jun, I just bought these chocolates a few days ago, they taste really good, you can have them.”
“Miss Jun, I have two movie tickets here. Why don’t we go out for a movie together?”…
The boys in the village were largely single. At 20 years of age, Jun Xiqing was delightfully youthful and a ravishing beauty. She was just like a fairy that descended, naturally attracting the attention of all unmarried men.
The boys fought to make sure Jun Xiqing knew their feelings for her.
This made Jun Xiqing feel more than a little awkward. “Um, thank you for your gifts but I don’t think I will need them…”
She pushed the gifts aside.
“Miss Jun, you must take them. If you don’t take them, we’ll be really sad. Also, can we get to know each other a bit more?”
“…”
When Jun Xiqing was at a loss of what to do, she heard a deep voice from behind. “Qingqing, you’re being cheeky again?”
What?
Jun Xiqing lifted her head and looked, Lu Yeming walked over with the village head beside him. He wore a black shirt with black trousers, exuding a dignified aura. The boys couldn’t hold a candle to him.
Lu Yeming strode over, stretching his arm out and placing it over her shoulder, kissing her cheek. As his lips brushed past her face, though it wasn’t intentional, it really was an affectionate move.
“Qingqing, it’s time for you to take the medicine?”
Take medicine?
As Jun Xiqing looked at him, she was completely bewildered. “What… medicine?”
Lu Yeming placed his hand on her tummy. “Our child might be growing inside already, I’ve prepared some medicine to stabilize your pregnancy.”
Medicine to stabilize the pregnancy?
When he said those words, Jun Xiqing’s pupils contracted. W-Was he crazy???
The boys were all astonished. “Aren’t… you guys brother and sister?”
Lu Yeming didn’t really have any expression on his face, the corners of his lips curved and he gave Jun Xiqing a glance. “Tell them, who was it that slept with you last night?”
“…”
Oh God.
So they weren’t brother and sister.
The few boys turned around and fled.
…
After everyone left, Jun Xiqing pushed Lu Yeming away and stepped outside without a backward glance.
Lu Yeming followed behind her. “What’s the matter? Are you angry?”
Spinning around, Jun Xiqing was furious. “Lu Yeming, you don’t respect me at all! You’re really too much!”
How could he mention that they slept together last night in front of so many people? He was so… so despicable! Had he no shame?
Lu Yeming looked at her, raising his brows. “If I slept with you but claimed to not have done it to others, isn’t that the greatest form of humiliation for you?”
“…”
He really was good at arguing.
Noticing her crimson red face, Lu Yeming walked over and said, “I really have no idea why you’re so angry. Do you really want the rose, the chocolates, and the movie tickets from them?”
When he said that, he sounded condescending and his voice was practically dripping with disdain.
Those were clearly tricks to fool young girls. As the omnipotent West Duke, he clearly hadn’t done such childish things before.
Jun Xiqing was furious and snapped, “That’s right, I like roses, chocolates and movies. Which girl doesn’t like such things?”
So she really liked those things?
As Lu Yeming glanced at her, he only said one word, “Shallow!”
“…”
She really couldn’t continue holding a conversation with him, they weren’t on the same frequency!
“I’m not going to talk to you!”
She ran away.
…
The village head treated them with great hospitality, bringing out his home-brewed wine. Jun Xiqing had never drunk alcohol before and she drank a glass of it out of curiosity.
But when Jun Xiqing left the house, she could feel the effects of the alcohol kicking in. She was drunk.
After taking only two steps, she fell forward.
“Miss Jun, are you alright?” Shen Chong appeared in the nick of time and he caught hold of Jun Xiqing. Her body fell into his arms, acting like an aphrodisiac that made Shen Chong’s blood rush and kindled his raging desires.
Raising her head, Jun Xiqing looked at Shen Chong, but what she found was a handsome face instead. Pouting her lips, she said, “Lu Yeming, why is it you? Let go of me, stop… bullying me.”
It seemed she had taken Shen Chong as Lu Yeming.
Shen Chong held Jun Xiqing in his arms. “Miss Jun, I’ll not bully you. Let me dote on you.”
The few boys ran over sneakily and Shen Chong signaled at them. “Let’s take her back and have some fun with her?”
The boys were completely mesmerized by Jun Xiqing, they felt indignant and made their way back to peep at her. It only took one nasty thought for one to become a devil.
“Okay, let’s take her back!”
…
Shen Chong pushed open the room door and placed Jun Xiqing on the bed. Jun Xiqing was really drunk, her hair tangled around her neck but it didn’t affect her beauty. In fact, with those flushing red cheeks and doe-like eyes…
“Lu Yeming… Lu Yeming…”
She pouted her lips, calling Lu Yeming’s name over and over again drunkenly. When she opened her mouth, they could see her white teeth, she really was alluring.
The boys almost lost their minds looking at her. They had been living in the village their whole lives and even the prettiest girl in the village wasn’t able to compare to Jun Xiqing. They were just like mud compared to Jun Xiqing.
“I can’t hold it in anymore.” A boy started taking his pants off.
Shen Chong stopped them. “I brought this pretty girl back, although we are good bros who can share everything, the first to enjoy her should be me!”
“Brother Chong, hurry up then. It’s really hard holding it in,” the boys urged him.
