Chapter 1165: Chapter 1165 - I'm Downstairs
The man’s wispy fringe lay damply on his forehead, revealing his handsome face . The extravagant black silk pajamas accentuated his tall and attractive figure, with him exuding a cold aura .
As Lu Yeming stood in front of the bar counter, he opened a bottle of vintage red wine, pouring a little into a tall wine glass . He sipped the wine nonchalantly and the rich taste of the red wine spread in his mouth .
Just then, there were two knocks on the door, followed by his trusted right-hand man, Fan Men’s voice . “Duke . ”
“Come in . ”
The door opened and Fan Men entered .
“Duke, the duel will happen in three days, but we are still unable to locate Third Young Miss Jun’s whereabouts . ”
Lu Yeming turned around and perched himself slightly on the counter, his deep almond-shaped eyes glancing at Fan Men . “No need . She’s already here . ”
What?
Fan Men stared at Lu Yeming in shock .
But Lu Yeming was not interested in continuing the conversation and merely took another sip of red wine . “Fan Men, do you have a woman?”
Fan Men swiftly bowed his head . “Duke, I don’t have one yet . ”
Lu Yeming glanced down at the red wine glass in his hand . “Women are like red wine . They may be equally beautiful, but when you take a taste, you will be able to differentiate between the good and the bad . When you are used to drinking the wine of the most superior quality, you will not bother with the inferior one anymore . ”
“Duke, I don’t understand . ”
Lu Yeming curved his thin lips . “You don’t need to understand . You may leave . ”
“Yes . ” Fan Men left .
The room became quiet again . Lu Yeming downed his wine . He was referring to the women whom he had relationships with, Jun Xiqing and Ye Ruge .
Ye Ruge was the East Duke’s daughter and the only female amongst the descendants of the Dukes of Country A . She was blessed with ravishingly beautiful looks .
He harbored feelings towards her and desired to marry her . Of course, that would mean that he would bed her .
But now, his feelings towards Ye Ruge had started to wane .
Just now when she had kissed him in the living room, he had pushed her away because there was something lacking in her .
She was not Jun Xiqing .
In the end, Jun Xiqing was much more exceptional than Ye Ruge . Her enchanting bright eyes sparkled with intelligence and astuteness .
Aside from this, Jun Xiqing had a clean and pure upbringing . She was the youngest daughter of the Jun Family and she was chaste, innocent and naively unaware of the matters between men and women . Every time he looked at her, he felt an itch in his throat .
When he recollected the feeling of kissing her, his breathing became slightly ragged .
Ye Ruge would never be able to match up to her innocence and sweetness .
Lu Yeming made comparisons between the two women in his heart . He was a very picky man, particularly in the area of choosing women .
The West Palace had already sent him clean and young ladies three years ago, but he had nary an interest in them . He was indifferent towards those beauties who had been selected amongst thousands of ladies .
The only woman who caught his eye was Ye Ruge .
But then after that, he met Jun Xiqing at Capital .
The Emperors in the past had many concubines and there would be some concubines who were more favored than others . He would definitely favor Jun Xiqing more in the future .
Lu Yeming elegantly sipped the last bit of red wine .
…
At night, the Rolls-Royce Phantom came to a stop . Gu Mohan glanced up through the shiny car window and saw that the light in the room upstairs was still on .
She was not sleeping yet .
He did not know why he had come here .
She had been drugged with AR and everything was within his plans . After her wedding with Feng Lihen, he would have the means to obtain the AR antidote .
On a certain level, he and Feng Lihen had reached a consensus . Feng Lihen had agreed not to touch her . Both of them would collaborate in achieving their goals – Feng Lihen would obtain the North Duke’s position and he would obtain the antidote .
But now an unknown panic was slowly spreading in his heart . Such a panic made him feel uneasy and helpless . For some reason, he had a premonition that she would leave him .
Gu Mohan picked up his cell phone and dialed a familiar number .
…
In the room upstairs, Tang Mo’er had just showered and she was drying her long hair with a towel . Her ravishing face was rosy pink from the steam of the hot shower . Her luscious lashes quivered and her red lips were daintily red . She was a sight to behold .
A melodious cell phone ring tone sounded as she received an incoming call .
She picked up her cell phone and there was a name on the screen . —- Mr Gu .
Mr Gu had telephoned her .
After hesitating for a few seconds, she picked up the call .
“Hello . ” His low and deep voice came over the phone .
Tang Mo’er bit down lightly on her red lips and did not answer .
“I’m downstairs . ”
Tang Mo’er promptly walked to the window and drew the curtains .
There was a street lamp and the lamp shone down on his Rolls-Royce Phantom, which was parked there . Enveloped in the shadows, he was like an Emperor in the darkness, and one could hardly ignore his presence .
“Come down . ”
He asked her to go downstairs .
Tang Mo’er looked down, gradually stretched her hand out and hung up the phone .
She did not want to hear his voice anymore .
She could not withstand his seduction anymore .
Sitting in the luxurious car, Gu Mohan heard the ‘duut duut’ sound of the phone being hung up .
She had never behaved like this towards him before .
Why?
The panic and terror in his heart loomed larger, making it difficult for him to breathe .
Gu Mohan pulled open the car door and alighted the car . The guard of the West Palace blocked his way . “Sir, I’m sorry, this is the West Duke’s residence and you cannot go in . ”
“Open the door . ”
A voice was heard .
The guard looked up towards the balcony, where a tall and handsome figure was standing . Lu Yeming .
“Understood . ” The guard promptly pulled the main gate open .
Gu Mohan walked in and looked up . His deep narrow eyes collided with Lu Yeming’s cold almond-shaped eyes . Without speaking a word, he stood below Tang Mo’er’s room .
He took out his cell phone and sent a message —- I want to see you .
In the room, Tang Mo’er saw him enter . One was upstairs and the other was downstairs .
He said he wanted to see her .
But Tang Mo’er did not reply .
Soon later, there was a “Beep” sound as his message came again —- I want to ask you something . Your marriage with Feng Lihen is fake, right?
—- Tang Mo’er, you don’t have the guts to forsake your husband and son .
—- Mrs Gu, I miss you .
Tang Mo’er’s pristine eyes were filled with luminous tears . Just then, there was a clap of thunder and the rain poured down .
She quickly looked outside the window . It was an autumn shower and the rain had come on suddenly, bringing with it gusts of cold wind .
In an instant, Gu Mohan’s clothes were soaked .
The raindrops glided down from his handsome face and his white shirt stuck damply to his muscular body . As he stood in the torrential rain, he continued to wait for her downstairs .
When she saw him standing there waiting, Tang Mo’er’s heart wrenched in pain .
