Chapter 535: No Fight Amongst Brothers (Part Two)
Since Jing Yiran had come to compromise, he would naturally offer him something else as well to get him to agree.
“Yang Muyan is always on the move and is totally unpredictable. You must stay in touch with her, because she is not the only one I plan to kill. Her helpers as well as some of her men are well-cultivated people in the Yang Family, and none of them must be left. Lu would formally be accepted by the Jing Family the day when Yang Muyan dies.”
When Jing Yiran heard that Lu would only be accepted formally by the Jing Family when Yang Muyan died, he could not help but glare at Jing Yichen. He was about to burst out with some horrible words when he thought about something and swallowed down the angry words.
At least Jing Yichen had agreed to do the blood transfusion for Lu and guaranteed her safety in A City. He should be grateful for that.
For now, Lu was safe and did not need to kill anyone or hide herself from the enemies.
For some reason, as long as he thought of Lu, everything that used to be so difficult suddenly turned easy and simple.
Jing Yiran was not sure if that meant that he had fallen in love with Lu because he had never felt it before.
He had always thought that he liked Shangguan Ning, so he wanted to irritate her, protect her, hear her voice and see her smile.
But he had never thought about bending down in front of Jing Yichen for her sake. He would never lose his self-esteem because of her.
But at this moment, he would give up everything for Lu. He wondered whether it was due to the feeling of gratitude that he was treating Lu so well, or because he wanted to keep her safe as she stupidly gave up everything for his sake.
Did he like Lu? He truly did.
Did he love Lu? Jing Yiran could not answer the question. He was unable to tell what was love.
What he knew was that he did not want Lu to get hurt and wanted her to live a steady and happy life like a normal person. For example, like Shangguan Ning who had a husband who spoiled her rotten and had a son to love.
Lu had had such terrible experiences in the past. She didn’t receive any love ever after she turned fourteen and had been living in darkness ever since. Jing Yiran could not help but feel his heart ache whenever he thought of what Lu had been through.
And now he felt relieved when he was able to get Lu a steady life with his own strength.
“Okay, leave Yang Muyan to me. I will dig out all of her secret associations.”
Jing Yiran still looked slightly arrogant. He was not scared of dealing with Yang Muyan, because he did not need to get in a physical fight with Yang Muyan’s men. He considered himself skillful when it came to putting on a show.
Having said the words, he turned around, ready to go.
He had nothing more to share with Jing Yichen. Although their relationship seemed to have become better than before, neither of the parties trusted each other deeply after all.
Jing Yiran had just taken a few steps when Jing Yichen’s calm voice arose from behind. “After Yang Muyan dies, you can go to Mu Qing and get your bullet removed. He has a success rate of over 90% in this kind of surgery.”
Jing Yiran stopped, and turned around to stare at Jing Yichen.
Jing Yichen did not look at him but left the beach immediately.
Who would want to die if one could live on?
Jing Yichen had offered him such a temptation, like an excellent businessman. They had already finished negotiating a deal when he added the benefits.
No wonder his men were so loyal towards him – he was observant and generous!
Now Jing Yiran realized why all his men turned out to be so useless. He had never used the correct method.
As he returned to his own villa, he was reminded of what Tiger told him a couple of days ago.
“Second Master, Master said that if you and Lu live somewhere else, you would lose your importance in front of everyone. So you can live here for the time being. Master is always very kind-hearted, and if you are nice to him, he will be nice to you as well. See, you are on good terms with each other right now, aren’t you?”
When Jing Yiran first returned to A City, he had no place for himself. So when Jing Yichen gave them the place to live, at least the accommodation issue was settled.
Although he was accepting favors from him, Jing Yiran still felt quite shocked inside his heart.
He fell into deep contemplation while seated on the sofa in the dark living room.
A small figure approached him and asked with a calm voice, “Why aren’t you coming to bed?”
Jing Yiran looked up when he heard the voice. He stood up abruptly and came to the small figure.
“You are awake!” He sounded joyful and expectant.
Jing Yiran was able to tell the two personalities apart just by one sentence.
He picked her up and walked into the bedroom. In a charming voice, he said, “Let’s go to sleep!”
Lu did not protest.
She had gradually become habituated to being picked up by Jing Yiran in this way. He always made her feel warm. Because of the transformation in her genes, she was always very cold, and low temperature could stop the cells from being active and extending the expiration of cells too. That was to say, if the destructive forces of the virus were gone, then Lu would live for much longer than normal people.
That was why she still had the baby-face and the baby voice.
Lu had witnessed the happenings between men and women many times, but she did not understand what was so good about it. She also had no idea why two people had to kiss each other when they were together.
She did not have a very profound understanding towards it nor did she find it to be anything special. She had no reaction towards a man’s manhood and did not find any intimate behaviors by a man to be improper.
So when Jing Yiran carried her to the bed, she felt nothing and did not push Jing Yiran away.
She found the embrace to be cosy and snuggled in his arms, closing her eyes in satisfaction.
The virus inside her body was getting active recently and she was feeling cold even in the month of June.
When Jing Yiran saw Lu behaving so obediently by letting him hug her and share the same bed with her, he felt very proud and even started to smile.
But soon he froze.
Because some part of his body, which had been sleeping for more than one year, was again awake after Lu’s proximity.
Twice, both because of Lu!
