Young Master Gu, Please Be Gentle

Chapter 1297 - I Miss You



Chapter 1297: I Miss You

The lights weren’t switched on and it was completely dark, only some moonlight came in through the windows.

Feeling something warm on his face, Lu Yeming used his fingers to feel it. Tears burned his fingertips.

Mo’er.

He really missed Mo’er.

Mo’er made him cry.

But the corners of his lips kicked up as he smiled through the tears.

Jun Xiqing.

She made him smile.

In the late night, he felt lonely and couldn’t fall asleep. He already knew what his future was going to be like. If he married Dongfang Ruoli, though he would reign over the entire country and wield absolute power, he would lead a lonely life. His life would be mundane.

The last rosary pea. Whenever he recalled it, his heart would wrench in pain. He had to vomit out some blood to even breathe properly.

Gu Mohan still had something he could reminisce about. Gu Mohan had Niuniu. On the other, he had nothing.

Perhaps it was Fan Men’s words combined with the and the dream earlier. It made him suddenly have the urge to grasp someone’s hand. Jun Xiqing’s hand.

He would never forget about Mo’er. He knew that he would always be sorry towards Jun Xiqing, since he would never be able to give her a complete version of himself.

He knew all of this, he knew.

Despite everything, he just wanted to keep her by his side. He wanted to... give the rest of his time on earth to her... He wanted to open up his heart to her, try to let her in. He wanted to try... a brand new start and a brand new future with her...

Once this idea popped up in his mind, he couldn’t get rid of it.

Lu Yeming took his phone out, finding her contact and he sent her a text.

Just three simple words—-I miss you.

These three words were sufficient.

He missed her.

He could still remember the times they spent together at the small village after falling off the cliff. She would cover her face while complaining that he kept on bullying her.

This time, he wasn’t going to bully her.

He knew that she loved her country and her family. He wasn’t the number one in her heart. He would let her make the choice this time.

To come back.

Or not come back.

If she wasn’t going to come back, their relationship would really end. They would not have anything to do with each other in the future.

If she chose to come back... Perhaps... they would have a different future.

...

Country Z, the President’s residence.

Jun Xiyan made a bowl of bird’s nest soup for Jun Xiqing and she finished it all. Hugging her sister, she thanked her, “Thank you, I finished it all! I’ll go and take a shower.”

Jun Xiyan ruffled her hair. “Go.”

Jun Xiqing took a clean set of pajamas with her and stepped inside the bathroom. When Jun Xiyan took the empty bowl and was about to leave, she heard a text notification.

She paused, lifting her eyes to look. Qingqing’s phone was placed on the nightstand and it had a new notification.

She walked over, looking at the screen—-Lu Yeming.

It was a text from Lu Yeming!

Qingqing had been back for a long time and Lu Yeming hadn’t sent her a single text. But now, after he ascended the throne, he sent Qingqing a text late at night.

Jun Xiyan picked up the phone. Qingqing had set a password, but she knew Qingqing too well, easily guessing it. After unlocking the phone, she read the text—-I miss you.

Lu Yeming had sent those three words—-I miss you.

Jun Xiyan’s gaze turned frosty cold, she deleted the text without a second thought.

But that wasn’t enough to make her feel assured. She even blocked Lu Yeming’s contact. After doing that, she put the phone back down.

Jun Xiyan lifted her head, looking at the closed bathroom door. They were already discussing the date in the Parliament, Qingqing was going to become President really soon.

At this important time, Lu Yeming sent her this message—-I miss you.

Who hadn’t heard of Lu Yeming’s mighty name? Strong and dignified, he was the very image of a leader. Even Qingqing fell for him, he was extremely charming and even when he merely sent “I miss you”, it made one’s heart palpitate. She was really afraid that Qingqing wouldn’t be able to resist his temptations and return back to him.

As her elder sister, she wouldn’t allow Qingqing to be together with Lu Yeming anymore!

This was just one relationship, she wouldn’t only have one relationship throughout her entire life. When Qingqing said that it would be hard for her to love someone else again, she wasn’t convinced at all. In her opinion, time would heal everything. Qingqing would definitely be able to find someone whom she loved, and that someone would also love Qingqing.

Thud. Jun Xiqing had finished taking a shower and came out of the bathroom. “Elder Sister, you haven’t left yet?”

Jun Xiyan smiled at her. “I’m leaving now. Goodnight, Qingqing.”

“Goodnight.”

Jun Xiyan turned back to glance at Jun Xiqing after she walked away. Jun Xiqing just sat in front of the dresser, combing her hair. It seemed she hadn’t noticed anything at all.

With that, Jun Xiyan could finally rest assured and she left.

...

The next day.

Lu Yeming stood at the tower, clad in a full black suit that accentuated his dignified aura. He had one hand in his pocket and the other was occupied with his phone.

He didn’t receive a reply.

He had sent that text out, but she hadn’t responded.

Fan Men stood behind him. He could sense something off with Lu Yeming. This was Lu Yeming’s nth time looking at his phone.

Lu Yeming’s face turned frosty and after a few seconds, he decided to make the call.

Dudu, he heard an automated message—-Sorry, the number you have dialed does not exist.

With raised brows, Lu Yeming turned behind to ask Fan Men, “What does it mean when they say the number I’ve dialed does not exist?”

“...”

Fan Men was stunned. Didn’t that mean the person had blocked him?

But who had the guts to block him?

“Master...”

“Say it.”

“It seems like... you’ve been blocked.”

After saying that, Fan Men carefully watched Lu Yeming’s expression.

Lu Yeming didn’t really have a reaction, not even raising a brow. He just pursed his lips, acting natural, but at the same time, it was someone self-deprecating.

So that was her answer.

When he was in the darkest moments in his life, she was the only stalk of light that he wanted to grab onto. He might not be able to fulfill all her expectations of love, but he would give her everything he had. The future was unpredictable, but it would be a fresh beginning for them both.

But now, he knew it.

She had made her decision.

He wasn’t in her plans at all.

It was over.

One text message ended all possibilities.

“Let’s go.” Lu Yeming turned around and left.

Fan Men instantly followed behind.

Lu Yeming suddenly spoke, “Make a public announcement. In two weeks, I will marry Dongfang Ruoli.

Fan Men was stunned.

...

Country Z.

At the President’s residence. Jun Xiqing held a meeting with the key political figures in the country. In order to maintain her image, she had to assert dominance and not behave like how she used to.

“Your Highness, I’ve brought a fashion designer over. You need a new wardrobe,” Pingping said. “You don’t need to feel sad at all, you can still put on beautiful dresses when we go out together to have fun.”

In her heart, Pingping felt a little bad for Jun Xiqing. She was only 20 years old, at the prime of her youth but after she took the position as president, she couldn’t dress up like a pretty girl anymore. She had to put on professional outfits.

When you gain some, you lose some. This position as female president was probably going to deprive Jun Xiqing of her freedom and the many beautiful moments she could have enjoyed, had she not taken this step.

Jun Xiqing was such an ethereal beauty, it was such a shame.
