Chapter 1267: It Hurts
Chapter 1267: It Hurts
Jiang Yuyan felt his lips brushing her lips when he talked. Though she herself was struggling to breathe, she could feel Lu Lijun was more troubled than her. He was tired already as sitting in the freezing cold for so long had affected his lung capacity.
“Lu Lijun..you should stop,” she said while catching her breath but he ignored her and instead moved down to her neck as his lips brushed along her jawline.
With his one holding Jiang Yuyan’s hands above her head while his other hand moving to her top to unbutton it, Lu Lijun sucked onto her neck as he heard a light moan leaving her lips. Unbuttoning the top few buttons, Lu Lijun moved her top off the shoulder as he started to kiss there. Her chest was left uncovered as her bosoms were visible to him which were covered in that tiny clothing of undergarment.
His sight was stuck at them as her chest moved up and down with her heavy breathing. Lu Lijun had an urge to touch them and do what he wanted but then looked up at Jiang Yuyan who had shut her eyes tightly as her eyelashes had turned moist.
‘Do I really wish to see her like this?’ Lu Lijun asked it to himself and closed his eyes tightly and inhaled deeply while lowering his face at the crook of her neck. He let go of her hands and tried to calm himself down while lying on her.
Jiang Yuyan realized he had calmed down and opened her eyes.
Lu Lijun stayed like that while lowering his head in the crook of her neck, “Don’t make me do this with you, Yuyan,” his voice sounded pleading and painful. “It hurts…hurts to see you don’t love me…it hurts.”
Lu Lijun moved back and got out of the car in a hurry without even looking at her. Jiang Yuyan saw him leaving and going back towards the home. She was about to sit up but felt something moist running along her neck. She touched it and realized those were the tears’ drops.
Jiang Yuyan understood why he left in such a hurry. He didn’t wish for her to see him like this. Jiang Yuyan sat up and buttoned up her top. Not knowing what to do, she continued to sit inside the car. She planned to leave but didn’t look like it would be so easy. More than that she was feeling worried for Lu Lijun and thought about what more she can do to make him give up on her. She could give him whatever he wished for but herself. There was no way they could ever have such a relationship.
In a while, Jiang Yuyan returned inside the home where the butler bowed to her.
“Where is Lu Lijun?” Jiang Yuyan asked.
“Fourth Young Master returned to his room,” the butler replied.
Nodding, Jiang Yuyan turned to go towards the staircase as the butler wished her, “Good night, Young Mistress.”
Jiang Yuyan reached upstairs and looked at the door of Lu Lijun’s room which was closed. She felt worried to think how he must be but couldn’t go to his room. It was better if they stayed away. She hoped, though it’s painful for him at this moment, later he would be fine.

The next day Jiang Yuyan woke up and went for breakfast. She asked the butler, “Is he awake?”
The butler looked a little hesitant but answered, “Fourth young master had left the home.”
“What?” Jiang Yuyan exclaimed as she stood up from her place.
“He asked me to inform that he is going back to La Mansion and there is no need to worry about him,” the butler added.
“H-How did he go?” Jiang Yuyan asked.
“He took one car.”
Jiang Yuyan sighed and picked up her cell phone to dial his number but it went unattended.
Jiang Yuyan dialed San Zemin’s number and asked him to track Lu Lijun and got to know that he had already reached the Lu Mansion. Jiang Yuyan gave out a sigh of relief and sat back in her chair.
The butler served her breakfast but Jiang Yuyan didn’t wish to eat anything and stood up from her chair.
“Your Mistress, breakfast?”
“Take it back,” Jiang Yuyan instructed and went upstairs. She didn’t go to her room but went to Lu Lijun’s room which was now empty.
She looked around the room and reminded her of the day when Lu Lijun left for England ten years back and had that same empty feeling once again.

For the next few days, Lu Lijun was home only while Jiang Yuyan didn’t go to Lu Mansion. Ming Rusheng and Lu Lian were working silently on the projects and there was no quarrel between the two where Lu Lian decided to stay away from him for some time while Ming Rusheng was feeling annoyed with the sudden changes in her and the distance she was maintaining between them. In the coming days, It was the naming ceremony of Lu Bao’s baby so once again Lu Mansion was going to be filled with happiness.

On the weekend, the day before the Naming ceremony, the Wens arrived at Ming Mansion for the marriage talk between Wen Zac and Ming Lan.
Lu Lian was there to be by her friend’s side and to help her get ready. Once Ming Lan was ready, Lu Lian commented, “So ready to see your in-laws, huh?”
“What ready? Here even my palms have turned sweaty.”
“You will be alright. They are good people. I have been to their home a few months back,” Lu Lian informed.
“I know but I am not like you who keeps coming to her in-laws’ home even before marriage and messing with their son in his room,” came the sarcastic reply from Ming lan.
“Aww, our little Lanlan is jealous. But you are at least fortunate to get married and get the chance to mess with their son so soon while I can just wait, Lu Lian countered.
“Mess with their son?” Ming Lan exclaimed, “I can’t dare. I am worried how things will go with him. He seems so serious and not romantic at all,” she paused for a moment and said again, “Well good for me it will be easy for me to continue my work and he won’t mind me staying away from him.”
“Things are not what we always see on the surface. I think he is secretly romantic. I can guess that much after going on a date with him. He is very straightforward. Make sure to not faint when he will be straightforward with you,” Lu Lian suggested.
Ming Lan nodded, “Will see. Not like I expect much from him. Moreover, it will take time for me to accept this sudden change when I always thought of him like brother Rusheng. It will be fine if things won’t go the romantic way so soon.”
Just then, there was a knock on the door and Zhang Jei came to the room, “Are you ready?”
Ming Lan nodded, “Yes, Mother.”
“They will be there soon. Come downstairs,” Zhang Jei informed and left.
“Ready, Ms. Lanlan?” Lu Lian asked.
Exhaling out, Ming Lan nodded as she mumbled, “These arranged marriages are sure so scary.”
Lu Lian laughed, “Now you have jumped into it on your own, then face it. It will be fine, don’t worry.
