Chapter 368: My Bad...
Jiang Yuyan looked at him with her eyes wide opened and he asked, "Don't you want to get married?"
She nodded and said, "I want to."
"Then what is with this look. Are you scared of that thing?" he asked.
She shook her and said, "N-No!"
Leaning closer to her, he whispered in her ear, "Don't worry, I will try to be as much as gentle I can."
Gulping, she moved back and said, "It's not that. Getting married is going to be a new turn in my life. I never thought about it until a few months back and now suddenly so many things changed.
"Hmm! I understand. Even if we would be married, there won't be any changes in our life so don't feel pressured. Things would be just as it is they are now," he said and she smiled.
That day in the evening there was gathering for the people for the business world and all the famous businessmen were going to be there to attend it. Lu Qiang was going to be busy for the whole day till late night so he informed Jiang Yuyan not to wait for him.
Jiang Yuyan was going to be bored the whole day again so Lu Qiang asked her to go out with someone. Jiang Yuyan had no friends there other than her childhood friends so she was thinking who to take with her. Lu Bao and Lu Lian were not around as they went to another city to aunt Lu Zhilan's home so that they could spend some time on their vacation with Wang Shu.
Before leaving for the office, Lu Qiang asked Jiang Yuyan, "So with whom are you planning to go out? I will ask the driver to take you wherever you want to go."
"There is no one I could go with so I will go alone," Jiang Yuyan replied.
"Why don't you ask Nixxxie to join you?" Lu Qiang suggested.
Hearing it, Jiang Yuyan exclaimed, "How did I forget about her? Let me ask her."
Jiang Yuyan asked Nixxxie and she agreed. The plan was fixed and both ladies decided to meet at one of the famous malls in the city.
Before leaving the mansion, Lu Qiang hugged her and said, "Make sure to wear warm clothes because it's cold outside." Jiang Yuyan nodded.
A servant brought a black color winter coat for him to wear. Once he was done, Jiang Yuyan said, "You are looking really eye-catching in this coat."
Lu Qiang smiled to hear it and said, "Really? I thought I was more eye-catching when I am not wearing anything."
Jiang Yuyan was stunned to hear it and looked around to see if there was anyone so he said again, "Don't worry, no one is here." Saying it kissed her on the forehead and left saying bye.
Lu Qiang sat in the car and called Jiang Yang. Before he could say hello, Lu Qiang spoke, "Your woman is going out with my woman."
Jiang Yang was about to get in his car to go to the hospital when Lu Qiang called. Hearing what Lu Qiang said, something clicked in his mind and he said, "Thanks for informing me."
Lu Qiang intentionally called Jiang Yang to inform him as to give him an opportunity to see Nixxxie. Since the day of their date, Nixxxie avoided to go out with Jiang Yang or to meet him in every way possible. She was scared for him to get harmed by her step-brother.
As it was the winter vacation, there was no chance that Jiang Yang could see her in the university by going there with the excuse of seeing his sister. Most of the time in the night, Jiang Yang waited in his car outside of the Xi residence just to get a single glimpse of her by chance but it never happened. Whenever he called her, she just spoke a few words and conversation ended just in a minute.
Jiang Yang knew why she was doing it and it was understandable but his heart was not allowing him to be in peace. He wanted to see her desperately, also he was worried for her because of her step-brother. He wanted to visit her in her home but Lu Qiang advised him not to do anything that she didn't want and hold back for some time.
Lu Qiang could understand Jiang Yang's condition as he was not able to see her so he just wanted to create a small opportunity for him. If Lu Qiang wanted, there was not a big deal for him to get Jiang Yang to see her but they preferred to be silent for some time as Lu Qiang knew there were few important things to be done than these simple ones.
In the afternoon, Jiang Yuyan got ready. She went through her wardrobe and smiled to see all the winter wears arranged there by Lu Qiang for her. She pulled out a beige color, full sleeves winter jacket long up to her knees.
She wore a white full-sleeves white T-shirt and blue jeans with the winter jacket on it. She never preferred to use makeup so applying just a moisturizer on her face, lip gloss on her lips. And with her hair left open, she was ready to out There was a pair of winter boots for her. Wearing the black one out of all, she went out of the room.
As she reached downstairs, there was no one so she moved to the door of the mansion as the car was ready for her outside of the door. Just then someone called her, "Yuyan!"
Stopping in her tracks, she turned to look back. Lu Lijun was standing there looking at her.
"You called me, Lu Lijun?" she asked him.
"As you can see there is no one around so it is obviously me." Replying, he stepped towards her and said, "Are you going out?"
"As I am ready in these clothes so it's obvious I am going out." This time Jiang Yuyan didn't avoid to reply him back in his style.
"Hmm! My bad," He said.
