Chapter 855: Sorry, But I Can’t Marry You
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Country Z’s bullet-proof luxury cars were here, making such a great spectacle. There could be only one reason – that being Country Z’s President, Jun Mosheng was here.
The luxury business cars pulled up slowly. An entourage of royal guards with a golden ‘Z’ embroidered on their sleeves opened the car doors respectfully. Jun Mosheng got out.
The doors of the luxury cars behind were opened as well, as Tang Mo’er and Tang Chenyi both got out. They walked over to stand beside Jun Mosheng.
Lu Jinwen’s sculpted features turned cold instantly. Why was that damned Jun Mosheng here again? Tang Mo’er and Tang Chenyi had obviously gone to fetch Jun Mosheng. Now they stood by his side, as though they were Jun Mosheng’s daughter and son.
The whole scene was rather disturbing.
Mo’er was his daughter, but she refused to acknowledge him as her father.
And then there was Tang Chenyi. The presidents in the VIP room had told him that Tang Chenyi looked like him, but he looked like Jun Mosheng as well, hmph!
At this moment, a melodious voice sounded beside his ear. “Mosheng, you’re here?”
Lin Xuanji who was in his embrace pushed him away and walked over to Jun Mosheng.
Lu Jinwen was speechless.
Caught off guard, he stumbled back a few steps. Now he stood rooted to the ground, staring blankly at Lin Xuanji as she walked over to Jun Mosheng’s side.
Jun Mosheng had been surrounded so quickly, yet he stood there alone, abandoned. Lu Jinwen’s expression turned ugly, his face as black as the bottom of a pot.
As Jun Mosheng looked over at Lin Xuanji, his gaze seemed to soften. “Xuanji, have you been waiting long for me?”
“That’s right, I came down specifically to fetch you,”Lin Xuanji said with a laugh.
She had come down just for Jun Mosheng?
Lu Jinwen’s hands balled into fists. All his actions just now were a result of him mistakenly thinking that she still loved him!
“Uncle Jun, let’s go over to the hotel for dinner first. We can talk over dinner,” Tang Mo’er said.
Lin Xuanji’s lips curved upwards. She looked sideways at Tang Chenyi, and asked gently, “Chenyi, do you need mom to do this?”
Tang Chenyi lay lazily on the car seat, expressionless. His eyes were clear and light, as though the topic didn’t concern him at all.
Hearing Lin Xuanji speak, Tang Chenyi looked lightly at Qing’er. “Regardless of whether it’s my mom or my sister being married off, I don’t need it. I don’t need them to pave my way to being the ruler by sacrificing themselves.”
Lin Xuanji nodded in agreement. She had spent too little time with her children in this lifetime, but still managed to teach them a thing or two.
What she wanted to teach them was perseverance and strength. She wanted them to be responsible and have courage.
Her Mo’er and Chenyi would become people who were both independent and brave.
Qing’er took a look at Tang Chenyi and stayed silent.
“Mosheng,” Lin Xuanji said as she looked at Mosheng, “You’ve already helped Chenyi enough these three years. I can’t marry you just to help Chenyi get the position at the top. It’s too unfair to you.”
She would never be able to repay Mosheng for what he had done for her in this lifetime. She didn’t want to use him for the remainder of her life.
It would be too unfair for him.
Jun Mosheng nodded. In all the years that they had known each other, he had always respected her decisions and supported her silently from the shadows. This time was no exception. “Alright Xuanji, I won’t ever bring this topic up again.”
...
The bullet-proof luxury car stopped in front of the hotel. Jun Mosheng got off and suddenly coughed violently.
“Uncle.” Jun Xiqing handed a white handkerchief over to Jun Mosheng swiftly.
Jun Mosheng covered his mouth as he coughed another two times. As he lowered his hands, there was a blood stain on the handkerchief.
Jun Mosheng was coughing up blood.
“Uncle!”
“Shh!” Jun Mosheng indicated for him to keep quiet. He looked at Lin Xuanji who was in front of him and said weakly, “Don’t let Xuanji find out.”
“Why? You’ve caught the Cold disease, and have been coughing blood for half a month already. Even the doctor doesn’t know what to do. Because you’ve never married and don’t have a son, some people in Country Z are already starting to stir with unease. Everyone is eying your Presidential position. The only choice you have is for Madam Xuanji to marry you. Tang Chenyi is a famous name, he is young and talented. He can protect Country Z for you, and you can obtain Country A for him. He’ll become a legendary ruler with power over two countries.”
Jun Mosheng shook his head slowly. “If you tell her, she’ll definitely marry me. But I don’t want to do that. I’ve never coerced her before. My love for her will only serve to help her...”
