Chapter 1252: Because She Knows I Am Waiting For Her
Jiang Yuyan went to the Jiang residence where her parents had returned to China. She had a reason to stay away from Lu Lijun until she could resolve everything the way she had decided.
She was late after following Lu Lijun and reached there during dinner. Jiang Yang opened the door for her, "Oh, President Lu, at this hour?"
"Can"t I come here to visit my parents?" She countered and entered the home as she removed her winter coat and held it in her hands.
"President Lu can come here to visit her only one brother also," Jiang Yang closed the door and followed her.
Mo Ruolan was setting up the dinner table when she saw Jiang Yuyan entering the home. She was wearing her office clothes and looked tired so Mo Ruolan understood her daughter was working till late and came there straight from the office.
"You look tired," Mo Ruolan said.
Jiang Yuyan nodded, "A little."
"Get fresh and come for the dinner," Mo Ruolan instructed and Jiang Yuyan went to her room.
Jiang Yang stood folding his hands in front of his chest and stared at his silent sister who was going upstairs. "Something is wrong with her," he concluded.
Jiang Yuyan freshened up and was about to go downstairs to have dinner but something was still stuck in her mind and she picked up her cellphone.
She dialed San Zemin"s number, "Did he reach home?"
"Not yet, Boss. He has been sitting on the park bench since long," San Zemin replied.
"What is he doing there?" she asked worriedly.
"Nothing. He is just sitting there," San Zemin replied.
Jiang Yuyan hung up the call and was about to get downstairs, she received the message. Those were from San Zemin and he had sent her Lu Lijun"s picture.
Jiang Yuyan scrolled through them and saw Lu Lijun was sitting on the wooden bench outside of the kid"s park and he didn"t even care about the snowfall. He looked lonely and sat while staring blankly ahead. She even noticed the snow acc.u.mulated on his hair.
Seeing him like this hurt her but….she had no other option. "He will get back home once he is fine," she concluded and went to have dinner.
"How have you been, Yuyan?" Jiang Peizhi asked.
"I am fine, father," she replied and asked, "You two are here to visit Ming Rusheng?"
Lu Jinhai nodded, "It"s late for us to do so as he is already fine but we couldn"t return because just before that we were here for long,"
"It"s fine, father. I did the job for you two," Jiang Yang said.
"Now other occasions came together so it was a good opportunity," Mo Ruolan commented as she referred to the naming ceremony for Lu Bao"s baby.
Jiang Yuyan was silent during the dinner as she ate just a little for the sake of eating.
"Why are you not eating?" Jiang Yang asked.
"I had a heavy lunch so not much appet.i.te left," she replied.
"I see," was what Jiang Yang said, and let her be. He was sure there was something on her mind.
He looked at his parents, "Both of you were saying something before she came. What was that?"
"We can talk about it later." Mo Ruolan said in a serious tone as she gave her son a warning gaze.
"If you two talk about her, then she should be the one to know first," Jiang Yang said.
Before Mo Ruolan could shut him up, Jiang Yuyan looked at her mother, "What is it?"
Mo Ruolan felt hesitant. Her daughter had just come to visit them and she didn"t wish to act like a pestering mother, "It was nothing new. The same thing that the guy we mentioned to you before….."
"I"ll meet him," Jiang Yuyan interrupted her mother.
It left the other three shocked. If she had said no or had said she would think about it then it was normal but agreeing to it so fast was not digestible for them.
Jiang Yang finally spoke, "Yuyan, are you sure…?"
"I told my decision," she said and looked into her phone again only to see Lu Lijun"s latest picture. Lu Lijun was still there and he was out already for so many hours in a cold and now she felt worried about him.
Jiang Yuyan excused herself and went to her room. She called Xiao Min who was always updated about everything through San Zemin, "Ask Noah to go to him and take him to his home." Jiang Yuyan knew, at this moment, only his friend would be able to move him.
Xiao Min called Noah and without a delay, Noah rushed to get him. When Noah reached there, he was shocked to see Lu Lijun sitting there silently as a little snow had acc.u.mulated on his hair.
He immediately went to him and brushed off all the snow from Lu Lijun"s hair, "You idiot. You said you will go home. What are you doing here? Do you want to get sick?"
"I am fine," Lu Lijun replied.
Noah touched Lu Lijun"s cheeks which had turned colder and even his ears and nose tip had turned red.
"It"s not at all fine. Come with me to my home. Like this, you will fall sick."
Lu Lijun didn"t look at his friend even once as his sight was just staring ahead blankly.
"You can leave. Don"t worry about me," Lu Lijun said.
Noah frowned at his stubborn friend, "Stop acting stubborn. President Lu won"t come to get you."
"She will," Lu Lijun said calmly. He didn"t look like he was cold.
He sure felt cold but he was stubborn enough to fight that freezing cold and control his body from not showing it out.
"If she wanted to come here, she would have been here long back and you wouldn"t be sitting here for so many hours like this. A normal person might have been hospitalized after sitting this long in the snow and such freezing cold."
Lu Lijun didn"t care what his friend said and continued to be silent. Noah knew he was trying to fight with the coldness he was feeling. He was an ordinary human after all and not any G.o.d.
"Lijun, she won"t come," Noah said.
"She will," Lu Lijun countered.
"Why are you so sure?" Noah asked annoyingly.
"Because she knows I am waiting for her."
