Chapter 1123: Headache And The Medicine

Jiang Yuyan stood up and warned. "If you do this again, I'll leave this home and will never return."

It didn't affect Lu Lijun, and he stood up facing her. "I told you, you are not allowed to leave. If you do, we will leave together."

"I will go somewhere far away where you can't find me," she countered.

"Then I would have to go to the police station to file a missing report."

"Police?"

"Hmm," Lu Lijun nodded nonchalantly. "From the past few days, they are wary of me because of how I troubled them with my elder brother's accident case, and they are scared if I find out the truth. I'm sure they won't be careless this time when it comes to my wife."

Jiang Yuyan got one more shock. "You..when did you?"

Lu Lijun smirked. "Do you still think San Zemin's men can ever catch me who couldn't even hide themselves from a twelve-year-old kid?"

"What did you get to know?" Jiang Yuyan asked as fear covered her eyes.

"You will know soon," he replied.

He looked determined about Lu Qiang's accident case, and from what he said, she was sure he had got something with him, and it scared her.

Jiang Yuyan closed her eyes in annoyance and opened again to look at him. "What should I do so you will stop looking into it?"

"Nothing can stop me, and you don't need to offer me anything. Whatever I want from you, I'll get it anyway." He was calm and unaffected while the woman in front of her was scared to think about the outcome of his investigation.

"Lu Lijun, you can't...."

"Shh!" he stepped closer to her, "I'm yet to wish good morning to my wife." He pecked on puzzled and frightened Jiang Yuyan's cheek. "Good morning!"

Jiang Yuyan couldn't even feel that peck. Her mind was somewhere else as the thin line of sweat appeared at the back of her neck.

Just then, there was a knock on the door. "Yuyan, it's me."

Jiang Yuyan pushed Lu Lijun away and stepped back to keep an appropriate distance between them. The door opened, and Ning Jiahui entered the room.

It surprised her seeing Lu Lijun in Jiang Yuyan's room when he looked like he just woke up.

"What are you doing here?" Ning Jiahui asked her son, and Jiang Yuyan felt her heart at its highest pace, and her legs would turn weak, and she would fall down.

Lu Lijun looked at his mother. He was not a bit affected by his mother's presence, while Jiang Yuyan felt like stopping time. "Last night, I couldn't sleep, so I came here..."

"Medicines..." Jiang Yuyan interrupted him.

Lu Lijun looked at her, and she continued looking at her mother-in-law. "To get medicine for a headache due to lack of sleep."

The way Lu Lijun started his statement, Jiang Yuyan knew he would tell the truth. This man knew no limits and never understood how his actions could bring chaos in a peaceful place.

Ning Jiahui sensed the awkward air around the two, especially Yuyan. She looked different from how she was for the past few years, cold, confident, and emotionless. At this moment, she looked like in the past when she first came to Lu Mansion to stay with the Lu Family.

Was it a good thing, or should she worry about it, thought Ning Jiahui.

Ning Jiahui was sure Lu Lijun must have done something.

Ning Jiahui observed the two, and her sight stopped at Jiang Yuyan. "Are you trying to hide something and protect him again?" Ning Jiahui asked.

"No, mother," Jiang Yuyan replied, but Niag Jiahui didn't believe it, knowing how protective Jiang Yuyan was towards Lu Lijun.

Then, Ning Jiahui looked at Lu Lijun. "If you are here to trouble her again, then I won't mind you returning to England. What have you done till now, was enough and I won't let it slide this time if you trouble her," Ning Jiahui warned her son, her tone cold and expressions serious.

It didn't affect Lu Lijun, and he commented. "Good to see mother cares for her daughter-in-law more than her son."

Jiang Yuyan's throat suddenly turned dry, but Ning Jiahui didn't seem to understand what he exactly meant.

"She is my daughter now," Ning Jiahui replied.

"Then, I can't be a son...."

"Mother, What's that?" Jiang Yuyan interrupted the talk as she pulled out a wide smile on her face and looked at what Ning Jiahui held in her hand, a small paper bag.

It diverted Ning Jiahui's attention. "Ahh, this?" Ning Jiahui handed over the bag to Jiang Yuyan. "These are some medicines for you."

"Medicines?" Lu Lijun spoke and got that bag from his mother even before Jiang Yuyan could hold it properly, which made Jiang Yuyan frown, but she suppressed it and stood there quietly.

Lu Lijun pulled out one palm-size white bottle and shook it. There were tablets inside it, and then he read the label on it. "Are these trustable?" He asked.

"Of course! These are authentic Chinese medicines," Ning Jiahui added.

While reading the tiny letters on the bottle, Lu Lijun asked, "For what?"

"To give her more strength to deal with the trouble like you," Niang Jiahui replied sarcastically.

"Will it work?" Lu Lijun asked while checking the other bottle in the bag.

Ning Jiahui could only sigh as nothing could affect her son. He couldn't even realize how stubborn he was and how troublesome he was most of the time.

The two ladies in the room looked at each other as if they had given up in front of him.

"Make sure to take it. You were sick, so it will help you get better faster?" Ning Jiahui talked to Jiang Yuyan.

"I will, mother," Jiang Yuyan assured.

"Come for breakfast," Ning Jiahui instructed and looked at her son, "Are you going to stay here to trouble her more?"

"I am yet to get the medicines for headache," Lu Lijun replied as he put the bottles back in the bag.

"Come soon for breakfast," Ning Jiahui instructed him before leaving.

Jiang Yuyan looked at Lu Lijun questioningly as if asking him to leave the room. She put forward her hand to get the medicine bag from him. "You can leave."

"What about my headache?" he asked.

Jiang Yuyan felt like grabbing something and knocking her head on it. "Get lost."

Lu Lijun was still calm. "I will. First medicine for my headache," he said and stepped towards her as he lowered his head in front of her. "Here, a peck," he said using his forefinger to point at his forehead.

Gritting her teeth, Jiang Yuyan pushed his face away using her palm on his forehead and went to the bathroom and Lu Lijun heard the loud sound of a door slamming.

Lu Lijun put the medicine bag on the table and left the room smiling pleasantly.
