Chapter 621 Comforting Each Other...
It was something surprising for Jiang Yuyan but as she was so emotional and needed someone beside her; she let Lu Lijun do it, but her tears could not stop. She was sitting at the edge of the bed crying while Lu Lijun was wiping her tears, standing in front of her.
Not knowing what to do to make her feel better, Lu Lijun went closer and hugged her. Jiang Yuyan continued crying, her head resting at Lu Lijun"s small chest, and he continued patting her head. Each pa.s.sing moment, the sound of her loud cry got calmer.
Lu Lian and Ning Jiahui were looking at them standing at the door but no one had the heart to go to her as they would just cry and would make Jiang Yuyan cry more. Lu Lijun was the only one who was calm even after seeing her tears.
In a while, Lu Lijun let her go and picked up the tissue paper box. As he stood in front of her holding a tissue paper box, Jiang Yuyan raised her hand to pull out tissue paper, but before her Lu Lijun pulled out one and wiped her tears. The next thing was more surprising as cleared her nose too.
Jiang Yuyan pulled her face back to not let him do it, but he was being stubborn and the next moment she heard a commanding voice.
"Stay still."
Jiang Yuyan couldn"t help but listen to him as if she was a kid, and he was one adult person. When he wiped her nose and went to throw the tissues in the trash can, the memory of Lu Qiang doing the same for her flashed in front of her eyes, making her miss him more.
Lu Lijun went back to her and offered her water. She accepted it and looked calm. Ning Jiahui and Lu Lian gave out a sigh of relief and left as they were not needed.
"Rest!"
Lu Lijun signaled Jiang Yuyan to lie down in a bed, his voice commanding and his sight fixed on her to make her listen to him.
Jiang Yuyan was exhausted with crying and needed the rest, so she listened to him. Tucking her in a bed, Lu Lijun went to sit on the couch and sat there to look after her the same way she did it for him till now.
That day, Lu Lijun took care of her, acting like the mature person. He brought the lunch for her in the room and when she didn"t feel like eating, he even offered to feed her.
"I will eat on my own," said Jiang Yuyan while Lu Lijun held the spoon full of soup in front of her mouth. She was sitting in the bed and the tray of food was kept on the bed table.
Though she said it, there was no change in his sight or in his expression. He continued staring at her while holding the spoon still. Giving up to him, Jiang Yuyan finally opened her mouth.
Jiang Yuyan felt happy that Lu Lijun was behaving like before and there was a good change in him, so she let him do it.
Till then, the whole family understood these two needed no one but each other as they could feel each other"s pain because this incident affected both of them equally. When one was in a bad and weak condition, the other one acted strong and comforted the weak one.
It was a relief for everyone as it worried them that it will break Jiang Yuyan and Lu Lijun will go back to being how he was in the past, in his worst condition.

In Xi Cheng"s office...In the evening…
The office was deserted with all the employees gone back home.
"Boss, the women are here," Xi Cheng"s a.s.sistant instructed him.
"Bring them inside," Xi Cheng, who was sitting in his office chair while working, instructed.
In a minute, two women entered his office, one looked in her early thirties and the other one looked so young who didn"t even enter her twenties.
The older woman was overly styled, black short dress, long black hair left open with one s.h.i.+ny hairpin tucked at the one side of the hair, her dark brown lipstick and the heavy eye makeup was so loud on her fair skin, adding to it even more.
The young girl was slim, fair and looked innocent. She was wearing a lavender color cute lace ruffle dress which ended up just above her knees, her makeup minimal with her hair tied in the ponytail.
The older woman sat in the chair opposite to Xi Cheng while the younger one stood a few steps back from where the older woman sat, her head lowered down as she peaked at the man in the chair.
"Mr. Xi, I hope this time my girl will be able to please you," the older woman said and Xi Cheng looked at the girl standing beside the older woman.
The girl lifted her head and her eyes met with Xi Cheng"s, the grey eyes staring at her which looked like they could see even through her soul.
Xi Cheng averted his sight from the girl and looked at the older woman, "They don"t have to do it as I like to have it my own way."
"Mr. Xi, every time I prepare my girls the way you like." Signaling towards the girl standing behind, the woman continued, "Look at her. She is the same as you want, pretty and innocent looking face, wearing a decent cute dress, minimum makeup and not to forget that cute long ponytail which is your favorite."
Xi Cheng looked at the girl again and the older woman continued, "But every time I heard you don"t let them touch you. I just want to know if there is something that is still lacking so I can prepare my girls properly next time."
"You just think about the money you get," Xi Cheng instructed.
"I have it enough after I helped you with the previous task," said the woman carrying a mischievous smile on her face.
