Chapter 1373 - You're So Indecent!
Chapter 1373: You’re So Indecent!
Ping Ping was sent over and when she saw Jun Xiqing all safe, she cried tears of joy. At that time, Jun Xiqing sat on the bed, taking off her outerwear, revealing her delicate shoulders.
The metal claws had lacerated her shoulder, leaving some wounds behind. Her skin was fair and smooth, but now, the wounds had affected her appearance.
Ping Ping carefully dressed her wounds, her voice filled with worry as she said, “Your Highness, I’m sure your injuries will fully recover. Even if some scars are left behind, I’ll do everything I can to find medicine that can remove your scars when we go back home!”
“Okay, I’ll leave it to you.”
They heard some sounds of singing and dancing outside and Jun Xiqing’s eyes lit up. “Ping Ping, let’s go out and have some fun.”
“Hold on, Your Highness. You’re not wearing a bra.”
Jun Xiqing’s shoulder was injured and it was inconvenient for her to put on a bra with straps, so she just decided to not wear one.
She adjusted her clothes, crinkling her eyes into a smile as she said, “No one can tell anyway.”
Then she dragged Ping Ping out together with her.
…
At the bonfire party.
There was a bonfire in the middle of the field while everyone surrounded it, engaged in conversations and dancing together merrily.
“Miss Jun, try this rice wine that we brewed ourselves.” The tribespeople were welcoming.
Jun Xiqing took a sip of it. “Mm, it’s really good.”
“We brewed this rice wine when the new Holy Lady of the Dongfang family was born. It’s already been 23 years.”
“The new Holy Lady? Isn’t that Dongfang Ruoli?”
An old tribesman shook his head. “Our current Holy Lady was nominated. The real Holy Lady went missing 23 years ago.”
What?
This was Jun Xiqing’s first time hearing about it.
The tribesman seemed to drift into his memories. “23 years ago, when the new Holy Lady was born, the sky was filled with golden rays. That was a good omen, it signified that the new Holy Lady was destined to be a noble and she would reign great power in the future.
“We were all excited when we heard the news. The entire Holy Lady Clan celebrated together for consecutive days. Every household brewed rice wine on the day.
“But one day, the new Holy Lady just disappeared. The Holy Lady Clan could only nominate the only girl in the Dongfang family, which happened to be Dongfang Ruoli, to become the new Holy Lady. But in actual fact, her bloodline isn’t pure.”
So this Dongfang Ruoli was an impostor, but where had the real Holy Lady?
Jun Xiqing drank an entire bowl of rice wine in a gulp and Ping Ping came over. “Your Highness, let’s go and dance.”
“Oh, okay.”
…
Jun Xiqing and Ping Ping danced around the bonfire and a few unwed boys were around them.
The boys were all looking at Jun Xiqing. As she had drank some rice wine, her face flushed an enticing pink. She danced around, although she wasn’t as professional as those who had a dancing background, she was still charming and attracted the attention from those boys.
Jun Xiqing was the prettiest girl they had ever seen.
No one else in the clan was as pretty as her.
In a secluded corner, Fan Men stood behind while Lu Yeming and the High Priest of Holy Lady Clan were in talks.
Lu Yeming’s eyes were on the High Priest’s face. “The Holy Lady Clan has independent sovereignty and Yuan Ming used to be the chief. Now that he’s gone, I’ll hand the Holy Lady Clan to you.”
“Your Highness, this will be a temporary arrangement. When I find the real Holy Lady, I will hand the power back to her. After all, she is the real ruler of our clan.”
“High Priest,” Fan Men suddenly spoke, “How are you going to find the Holy Lady when she has already been missing for 23 years?”
High Priest looked at Lu Yeming. “Your Highness, Dongfang Ruoli is not the real Holy Lady, the real Holy Lady is your destined bride.”
Lu Yeming didn’t really have any reaction to his words. He just put on hand in his pocket, looking at Jun Xiqing, who was dancing around the bonfire.
She was a striking presence even among the crowd. Many boys surrounded her and she danced around happily.
She was the most beautiful out of everyone.
She was the center of attention.
Pursing his lips, his expression darkened and displeasure was evident on his face. Stretching his legs out, he strode over.
…
Many people were dancing and Lu Yeming passed through the crowd and a girl knocked into him.
“Oops.”
The girl turned back and when she saw Lu Yeming’s face, she instantly blushed.
“I-I’m sorry…”
Lu Yeming merely glanced at her. “It’s okay.”
The girl almost fainted from excessive happiness.
Lu Yeming continued walking and his arrival had caused a commotion. Many stopped dancing, subconsciously making way for him to pass through.
Lu Yeming was a man who exuded a powerful aura even when he was only walking normally.
He stopped in front of Jun Xiqing, showing a spurious smile. “You’re out here to seduce someone again?”
Jun Xiqing gave him the side-eye, he simply wouldn’t leave her alone.
As she had been dancing earlier on, sweat dewed her face and a few strands of her hair tangled around her neck. She was a charming, innocent beauty and looked at him with raised brows. “President Lu, can’t you see that I’m dancing? Please move away.”
Lu Yeming’s gaze was deep and passionate, sticking his tongue out to lick the chapped areas of his lips as he let out a chuckle. “Dance with me.”
He then swayed his hips around with graceful movements.
“Ah!”
Jun Xiqing heard the girls around them screaming.
Lu Yeming had received proper training to become a noble and was good at all kinds of social dances. Even though he didn’t really put in his all, just this simple swaying of hips was seductive.
It made one have goosebumps.
She could only pout her lips. Who was out there seducing people? Lu Yeming, he was even more seductive than a woman!
“President Lu, if you want to dance, you can dance alone. I’m out.”
With that, Jun Xiqing turned and left.
Wrapping his fingers around her wrist, he stopped her from leaving and his deep voice resounded in her ears. “You came out without wearing a bra?”
Jun Xiqing’s heart palpitated and she lifted her head to look at him, only to notice that his eyes were on her chest.
Her outerwear was of thicker material and it was slightly oversized. No one could possibly tell that she didn’t wear a bra.
But somehow, he could tell!
“Lu Yeming, what are you even looking at?” She glared at him furiously.
Even now Lu Yeming remained nonchalant, rebutting, “You’re hiding two bunnies in there and they keep jumping around, how could you blame me for looking when they are so distracting?”
“…”
What did he just say?
Two bunnies?
The shade of red spread from her face to her ears. Biting down on her lower lip with her pearly white teeth, she scolded, “Lu Yeming, you’re so indecent!”
“You already know that I’m indecent but you still continue to seduce me. You’re the one asking for it!”
