Chapter 759 One More Promise...
That was Jiang Yuyan who ordered Lu Lijun to go back to his room.
"But, Yuyan I don"t…."
"I said go back to your room, Lu Lijun," Jiang Yuyan instructed again and she didn"t sound the soft one the way she always talked to Lu Lijun.
Lu Lijun stared at her for a while as he was surprised by her reaction.
When Lu Lijun didn"t buzz from his place, Jiang Yuyan continued, "You are going to England and that is the final decision whether you want it or not, so go back to your room and start packing your stuff. You are leaving this week."
Lu Lijun was so shocked by this that he had nothing to say. Also, he couldn"t go against what Jiang Yuyan said. Not having any option, he turned around and ran to go upstairs to his room.
Jiang Yuyan sat on the sofa to talk to the man Her father-in-law introduced her with. Just then everyone heard a loud bang of the door and they understood that it was Lu Lijun who shut the door angrily.
"Don"t worry about his father, he would be fine," Jiang Yuyan a.s.sured.
As they continued discussing the process about Lu Lijun going to England and then the arrangement of where he would be staying and a few other things, Su Hui and Qin Xiu witnessed the way Lu Lijun reacted.
"If he goes away, then she would be free and would be like a queen," Su Hui commented.
Qin Xiu agreed. "Right, mother. I wish if we could stop him and could see her in trouble once in a while."
"What are you talking about?" Lu Han who came downstairs asked as he stood behind the two ladies who were standing near the staircase.
It startled Qin Xiu but Su Hui was not affected by it as she said, "Nothing. They are sending Lu Lijun to England."
Lu Han exclaimed, "What?" He didn"t know about it.
"Hmm!"
"How can it be? He is so young and at this moment he needs his family," Lu Han said in a low voice. As they were standing far away from the sofa, others couldn"t hear them.
"That we know but thanks to Yuyan, he has to go away from the family," Su Hui informed her son.
"Does Lu Feng know about it?" Lu Han asked.
"Your younger brother is blinded by her and he will do what she wants," Su Hui said, she sounded bitter.
"Don"t talk like this, mother. We know better how Lu Feng is and also, we should never doubt Yuyan"s intentions," Lu Han instructed.
"What can I say when every person in this house is siding with her," commenting, Su Hui left and Qin Xiu followed her.
Lu Han thought to talk to Lu Feng about this but he was not home. He was sure, he can"t talk to Yuyan about it as she would never like it.

"Everything is ready, even the flight tickets are booked for the day after tomorrow," said Mr. Yin who was sitting in front of Jiang Yuyan and Lu Jinhai.
"The day after tomorrow? Isn"t it too soon?" Asked Ning Jiahui who was sitting with them too. She looked unhappy.
"It would be better for him to start school early instead of prolonging it. It would be convenient for him," Lu Jinhai replied.
Ning Jiahui expected Jiang Yuyan to side with her but she was not. Ning Jiahui had no other option but to agree to it.
When Ning Jiahui went back to her room, Jiang Yuyan excused herself and followed her mother-in-law who looked sad.
"Mother," Jiang Yuyan called.
"Ning Jiahui, who was sitting on the couch, looked at Jiang Yuyan to know why she came there.
"Mother, I know you are sad and I know I am the one to blame for sending a son away from a mother."
Ning Jiahui said nothing as at that moment she could only think as a mother who didn"t want her son to go away from her.
"Mother, I can"t change what happened but I can a.s.sure you that Lu Lijun will have a good future and he will be happy always."
Ning Jiahui still said nothing. It was not like she blamed Jiang Yuyan for anything but she didn"t know how to express what she was feeling at the moment.
Jiang Yuyan sat beside her mother-in-law. "Mother, please say something. I won"t say anything if mother blames me for all this and wants to take it out but don"t be so silent like this," she pleaded as she held Ning Jiahui"s hand. Her eyes were teary seeing her mother-in-law was upset.
Ning Jiahui patted her hand back and said, "I am not blaming you for anything. I am not even worried about his future but I am worried about his present and how would he adjust between strangers when he never ever left his family even once. Since that incident in the past, he never went alone anywhere like this and we know he has some issues as he is scared of a few things though he always acts so strong."
"I know mother but we have just this way and I believe it would make him stronger. He would be able to find himself as he would be among the strangers. Just a few years and he would be back. After that, we will give him what he deserves and he would be like his elder brother, a successful businessman."
"Do you think so? Will he forget how we sent him away when he didn"t want to and will he forget why we sent him away," Ning Jiahui asked worriedly.
"Yes, mother. He is an impulsive kid who doesn"t think about what kind of meaning his words carry. Calling me a wife is a result of how much he cares for me, but once he will go away and will be busy with his things, he will forget about it."
Ning Jiahui looked at Jiang Yuyan with hopeful sight and Jiang Yuyan offered her a smile as she continued, "Mother, let"s think about the positive things like once he is back and successfully handle the business, we can find one nice girl for him or if he has someone, we can make him marry her. Won"t it be nice?"
"Hmm! I hope so."
"I promise things will happen like this. Trust me, mother."
Ning Jiahui held Jiang Yuyan"s hand and spoke."I trust you."
Both ladies smiled as Ning Jiahui looked relaxed and Jiang felt relieved.
Jiang Yuyan made a promise but she never thought it won"t happen ever and she won"t be able to face her mother-in-law in the future.
