”I am not hungry,” she replied while her face was still buried in his chest as she slept like a baby while holding him.
”But you need to eat something. You have to take medicines as well,” he insisted, his voice was gentle and comforting. “Later I will let you sleep as much as you want. I am not going to the office today.”
She moved her head back and looked at him, “Not going to the office?”
”How can I go when you are not well,” he replied and caressed her cheeks gently, “Now get up.”
Unwilling to let go of that comforting embrace, she let him go and finally woke up trying to bear that pain.
Lu Lijun stood up and went to the wardrobe to get Jiang Yuyan’s clothes and she heard him, “I believe, once you are fine, you will still want to be like this with me.”
She looked at him, and he turned to look at her, “I mean, I sleep comfortably with you next to me.”
Jiang Yuyan understood what he meant. He turned to pull out clothes for her and said, “I believe you like to be in this room, don’t you?”
”Hmm,” she replied and he heard it clearly. He smiled lightly while being busy getting her clothes and stopped smiling before turning to look at her, “Then you can stay in this room with me.” He looked serious.
”Hmm,” she agreed and he turned to go to the bathroom. In a moment his expression changed from serious to a smiling one.
Once the two freshened up, Martha brought breakfast for them in the bedroom.
”How are you now, Young Miss?” Martha asked, Looking at Jiang Yuyan who was sitting in bed.
”I am fine now,” Jiang Yuyan replied and heard Martha again, “Apologies for not being around the previous night when you might have needed my help.” She arranged breakfast at the coffee table in the room.
”It’s fine,” Jiang Yuyan replied.
”She is fine with me taking care of her. So, you can rest assured, Martha,” Lu Lijun said to which Martha smiled while Jiang Yuyan stayed silent.
”Of course, Fourth Young Master. I am sure with your care, Young Miss will feel fine soon,” there was a meaningful look in Martha’s eyes. “If there is anything, please call me.” Martha left.
Lu Lijun pulled the chair out for Jiang Yuyan and she sat in it. All the while she didn’t dare look at Lu Lijun straight. She was aware of how she was acting since yesterday and she simply could not stop herself from being with him and wanting him to be close to her all the time and take care of her.
Though she had admitted her feelings to herself, confessing it to him was going to be really tough for her.
He passed her spoon and asked, “What happened?”
She shook her head, “Nothing.”
Lu Lijun didn’t insist on her saying anything if she didn’t wish to.
Just as the two had finished their breakfast and Jiang Yuyan returned to the bed, there was a knock on the door. Noah was at the door and said, “These are the files you have asked for. I and Mr Xiao Min are leaving for the office.”
Lu Lijun nodded, “Thank you.”
Just then they heard the voice from the drawing room and both looked at the drawing room downstairs.
”Brother Feng?” Lu Lijun was surprised to see him and felt happy but the next moment the smile on his face disappeared and his face returned back to his cold self.
”Oh, brother Yang is here too,” Noah said excitedly, seeing Jiang Yang who just entered the drawing room with Jerome.
”Why are you so happy to see him? You should show that wide smile when you see Jake but your face turns paralysed.
Noah chuckled, “Same as how your face turned paralysed after seeing your wife’s brother.”
Just then Lu Feng, who was talking to Martha and Jerome, looked upstairs and smiled at his brother and Noah who were standing at the corridor railing.
Jiang Yang also looked upstairs at Noah and Lu Lijun and mumbled to Lu Feng, “Why do I feel like your brother is not happy seeing us here.”
Lu Feng whispered back to him, “Not us but only you.”
”Me?”
Lu Feng nodded, “Wife’s brother can really be a pain in the ass.”
Jiang Yang chuckled, “I know you have enough experience.”
Jiang Yuyan looked at Noah and Lu Lijun as the door of the room was still open. The way Lu Lijun was looking downstairs, she realized something was there. She walked towards the door and went to Lu Lijun as she asked, “What happened?”
Before she could reach the railing and see, Lu Lijun held her hand to help her walk and made her stand next to him as he surrounded his hand around her shoulder. “Brother Feng and brother Yang are here.”
Jiang Yuyan saw downstairs and her eyes left wide open the moment she saw her brother. She tried to move away from Lu Lijun but he held her even closer to not let her move, “Stay still,” he ordered.”
Jiang Yang saw his sister coming there but then saw Lu Lijun holding her hand and then holding her closer. “This brat, is he trying to show me that my sister is not mine now?”
Lu Feng heard him and replied, “He is trying to tell you that she belongs to him now.”
Jiang Yang scoffed, “When did I say no to it?”
”Insecurities of husbands when his wife loved her brother more,” Lu Feng replied.
”Brother Yang,” Jiang Yuyan waved to him as she smiled awkwardly.
”Hey sis, I will freshen up and come to you,” Jiang Yang said.
”You should rest,” Lu Lijun instructed.
”I should meet my brother,” she said.
”You should not climb the stairs when you are not well. He will be here to visit you,” Lu Lijun said coldly as if he didn’t wish to hear no from her.
She nodded and returned to her room.
