Empress Of The Lost Kingdom Chapter 11
Advertisement
One week passed in a glimpse, while Li Juan busied herself in the preparation of the journey from the moment she got the message from Yang Xiong about the trip schedule.
The trip was arranged on weekend before the new year holidays so that journey will not affect their work or the ceremonial holidays.
Even though Li Juan been to site expeditions, the trip to Xi city felt different excitingly different, especially when she came to know that,
1. They will be flying on Tang family's private jet.
2. A trip with Tang Wei Sheng.
It was indeed a dream come true moment for Li Juan.
As per the schedule, Tang Wei Sheng reached the private airport at the correct time and ardently searched for Li Juan who has already arrived half an hour ago.
"Boss, Miss Li informed that she will be waiting near the check-in counter." Yang Xiong reminded his anxious boss.
Tang Wei Sheng nodded in agreement and strode towards the check-in counter.
"There she is," Yang Xiong pointed at Li Juan who sat in a lonely corner of waiting area, immersed herself in a book.
As soon as Tang Wei Sheng's eyes caught the sight of the gorgeous woman who dressed up in a style that is widely known as "an airport look", his face glowed up like a bright moon.
Li Juan wore a simple black dress with a beige trench coat and a pair of white sneakers. With her simple makeup and a high ponytail she appeared effortlessly chic and stylish.
As he fixed his gaze on her, Tang Wei Sheng felt his heart thumping inside his ribcage, so fast and loud.
It was his first trip with Li Juan where he had an opportunity to spend some quality time her. During their school days, there weren't any occasions for Tang Wei Sheng to meet Li Juan, since he was always accompanied by his friends. Even after ten years he never had a normal conversation with her.
However, from today onwards everything is going to change.
Tang Wei Sheng repeated in his mind and confidently walked towards her.
But the moment he saw a man approaching Li Juan to handover a cup of coffee, he unknowingly halted his steps.
It was a man whom Tang Wei Sheng can easily identify even in pitch darkness- Lee Tae Min.
"Is he also tagging along?" Tang Wei Sheng's mind went blank for a second. However, when he caught the couple being lovey-dovey right before him, the confused look on his face got replaced with infuriated expression.
He couldn't figure out the reason for the fuming rage inside his head whenever he witnessed Li Juan's bonding with her junior.
Is it mere jealousy or is he being possessive over her?
Whenever someone else, especially another man comes closer to Li Juan and makes her smile like a newly bloomed flower was something that Tang Wei Sheng failed to overlook.
He loved to see her smile, but he hated to see someone else is making her smile.
"She is mine...I should be the one who is responsible for her happiness." Tang Wei Sheng heard someone screaming inside his head.
He was the young master of Tang family and there weren't a moment of jealousy in his life.
He had everything and was happy to share with others, but not his Sweetheart.
Even if it is a friend, he couldn't bear to see Li Juan being close to other men.

"This boy and the way he looks her... it's strange.." Tang Wei Sheng mumbled as he kept scrutinizing Lee Tae Min.
When Lee Tae Min felt someone's gaze, he looked around and saw Tang Wei Sheng walking towards them. He quickly informed Li Juan and both of them walked over with a smile.
"It seems like Lee Tae Min is also coming with us?" Tang Wei Sheng asked as soon as they exchanged the greetings.
"No. I came to drop Noona." Lee Tae Min casually replied.
The instant his words Tang Wei Sheng's ears, the anxiety built up in his mind vanished without any trace.
"Oh, it would've been really nice if you joined us, researcher Lee." Tang Wei Sheng retorted even though he never wanted Lee Tae Min to tag along with them.
"I would love to join, but professor will kick me out of the team if I closed down the lab. Plus we got some last-minute work emergencies." Lee Tae Min explained with a sad puppy face.
"It's fine. I hope we will get another chance to work together." Tang Wei Sheng shared the words of comfort.
"Boss, we have to leave now." Yang Xiong looked at his watch and reminded them.
"Don't tire yourself out." Lee Tae Min reminded Li Juan as he picked up her bags.
"And never miss your meals."
"Yaa, are you trying to be my mom?" Li Juan laughed at Lee Tae Min who is treating her like a child moving out of her house, for the first time. "It is not the first time I'm going for a site check."
"Call me if you need anything." He repeated without even listening to her words. Unable to say no to him, Li Juan let out a sigh.
"Yeah, I will call you every morning and night. Is that fine?" She suggested to the youngman who was still holding to the straps of her bag as if heis reluctant to sent her off.
"Tae Minah," Li Juan called his name when she suddenly recalled something.
"Don't you want your coat?"
Li Juan removed the beige trench coat which she was wearing.
"Noona, you deserve an award for being the dumbest genius ever borne. Seriously who forgets to wear a sweater during winter?" Lee Tae Min was chiding her.
"No matter how good your outfits are, you needed to think about your health."
" I have sweaters in my bag. I am going to wear them when I reach there." Li Juan made an excuse.
"But still, you need this in flight. Keep it." Lee Tae Min took the trench coat and placed on her shoulders and looked at her.
It suits her well!
When Lee Tae Min heard about the incident that happened at ElleM mall from Cheng Tao, he felt bad. Even though Li Juan prefers T-shirts and jeans over dresses, she was a woman and every woman will have space for a dress in their closet.
Lee Tae Min's mother owned a cloth brand, so he asked his mother for some help, he just wanted to gift Li Juan a dress. But to his surprise, his mother sent a bunch of clothes for everyone in his team.
Yeah, it looks good on you. Lee Tae Min smiled and appreciated his mother's designers for sending suitable dresses for Li Juan.
"I should be going then. Bye Noona." Lee Tae Min hugged her and parted their ways.

Miss Li, don't treat us like air!!! Yang Xiong wanted to remind her.
There is a single dog standing beside you and it is raging with jealousy.
Tang Wei Sheng witnessed the whole scene. His mood immediately turned into anger developed from jealousy. He could only have a boss-employee relationship with Li Juan, on the other hand, Tae Min was being extra clingy.
Nothing more to explain, Tang Wei Sheng disliked Lee Tae Min.
Yang Xiong was shocked to see his boss's expressions.
Is he jealous of this lovey-dovey couple, again? Yang Xiong felt like laughing.
Usually, it is women who go overboard when they see Tang Wei Sheng. Yang Xiong has witnessed it a few times, how girls throw themselves upon his boss during parties. Even though Tang Wei Sheng behaved sweetly to them he never allowed anyone to cross the limits.
"Boss, shall we leave?" Yang Xiong asked him.
"Yes," Tang Wei Sheng replied without looking at Li Juan and walked forward.
Yang Xiong and Li Juan silently followed him.
The moment Li Juan entered into the flight, Li Juan's eyes went wide.
The interior of the flight reminded her of a lounge room.
On one side, there was a big C shaped lounge seating and on the other side two luxurious seats with table facilities.
"Please have a seat," the flight attendant asked them.
Tang Wei Sheng and Yang Xiong sat in the seats next to the table and Li Juan sat hesitantly in the big lounge sofa.
Why is he sitting there? Li Juan was in doubt. But soon after they sat Yang Xiong handed over an Ipad and started work-related discussions.
Of course, he is the CEO of a giant corporation.
Li Juan thought she will finally get an opportunity to talk to him. She never had any proper conversation with Tang Wei Sheng. All those things she knew about him was from Tang Wei Lan.
Apart from regular hi- bye chats Li Juan never talked wholeheartedly with Tang Wei Sheng.
Li Juan looked at his side profile. Tang Wei Sheng perfectly sculptured face was irresistible. She remembered Cheng Tao's words; Tang Wei Sheng was indeed handsome than any of the actors she has seen in movies.
Men look good when they are immersed in their work.
Gradually Li Juan's eyes got stuck at Tang Wei Sheng's lips- his thin rose lips.
It looks so kissable!!!!
Who will be lucky enough to get to taste of his lips?
Li Juan realized that her thoughts are getting wilder.
Li Juan!!! Get a grip. She cursed inside.
During her undergraduate days, all of her classmates shared their love stories and first kisses whenever they got drunk. And Li Juan, who has never been in a relationship, had any other option but to sit idly and listen to their story.
For everyone, Li Juan and her crush for senior Tang was nothing but a high school fling. However, nobody knew that Li Juan had her first kiss in her school days itself and it was from Tang Wei Sheng himself.
Li Juan looked at Tang Wei Sheng with yearning eyes.
Suddenly Tang Wei Sheng turned his head and his eyes fell on her. Li Juan tried to hide the fact that she was staring at him.
"Do you need anything?" He asked her.
"No." Li Juan said in a low voice
"Okay, then you should try to get some sleep." He suggested.
"I have something to read." Li Juan made an excuse. " How can she fall asleep when she could watch the perfect art in front of her?
"Okay, carry on then." Tang Wei Sheng replied casually.
"What is wrong with him?" Li Juan wondered.
Tang Wei Sheng who is known for his radiant behaviour -the happy soul.
He is giving a cold shoulder to his girl. How is that possible?
Li Juan wanted to start a conversation with him.
She wanted to tell him how much he means to her and how important he is for her.
Li Juan liked Tang Wei Sheng from the moment they've met but she was also well aware of the fact that they belonged to different worlds.
She didn't even stand a chance to be his girlfriend, so she kept her crush as a secret.
It doesn't matter, she is happy with this unrequited feeling.
Li Juan looked at Tang Wei Sheng with glittering eyes.
Tang Wei Sheng, I like you. Li Juan said in her mind.
Tang Wei Sheng turned to her and gave her an agreeing smile.
What?
Li Juan was literally in shock.
Did she speak out loud?
Or
Does he know mind reading?
Yang Xiong closed the documents and went to talk to the pilot.
"I have to check the documents today itself," Tang Wei Sheng said in a low voice. "I don't want to look at these things when I am travelling with you." He explained to Li Juan with a grin and twinkle in his eyes
"Take your time." Li Juan replied with a smile.
That answer was enough for her.
Li Juan took a book and reading glasses from her bag. She adjusted her trench coat in the process to start reading.
There was an enchanting fragrance arising from the trench coat. Li Juan felt her mind is getting filled with the smell.
What is this fragrance? Is it cologne?
The coat belonged to Lee Tae Min since he was sensitive to harsh smells he never used any cologne.
Then whose scent is this? Li Juan was puzzled.
It felt like Dejavu!
The scent felt familiar and gave her a secure feeling.
Some blurred memories flashed in Li Juan's mind.
It reminded her of someone.
A warm hug.
A caressing touch.
A soulful smile.
Who is he?
Li Juan searched all over in her memories but was unable to find its owner.
The memory disappeared in a glimpse.
However, the scent arising from the coat had a soothing effect, soon after Li Juan has fallen into the deep sleep.
When Tang Wei Sheng finished signing the documents, He saw that Li Juan was already asleep. His eyes rested on her sleeping face.
Li Juan still had her thick black-rimmed reading glasses and book remained open on her lap.
Tang Wei Sheng walked over and carefully removed her glasses and closed the book. He took a blanket and covered her.
Li Juan's sleeping face looked calm and serene.
Her facial features were sharp and prominent. An oval face with big beautiful eyes and long lashes; high cheekbones and nose and perfectly chiselled chins and a pair of slightly plump lips.
She was beautiful beyond comparisons.
The lips!!!
Tang Wei Sheng's eyes got stuck at her lips for a moment.
Li Juan didn't use any lipstick but a natural pink glow was present in her lips. Just like, it appeared seven years ago.
Even after seven years, Does it taste the same?
