Chapter 562 You Dissapointed Me...
"How are you, Yuyan?" Ming Rusheng asked.
"I am good," Jiang Yuyan replied calmly.
After Ming Rusheng"s confession to Jiang Yuyan, it was the first time when both were talking to each other. Jiang Yuyan saw him at her wedding, but they didn"t talk as Ming Rusheng didn"t go on the stage to congratulate the couple. Just after the wedding vows he left.
Jiang Yuyan didn"t avoid talking to him as it was not the solution. As he called her and started the talk on his own, she didn"t step back. He was after all one of her relatives which she would have to face often and in her opinion, it was best if they could be normal like before but she forgot that he was drunk.
"Hmm! I can see, that. I thought you won"t talk to me after that night," Ming Rusheng said.
"I think we should forget it and move forward as we would face each other often." Jiang Yuyan suggested.
"We can but not that easy for me because you might feel nothing about me but it"s different for me." He countered.
"I just hope for the things to not get difficult for anyone."
"It"s late for it now."
Seeing him not able to understand her point, Jiang Yuyan thought to leave. "I will take leave."
"Yuyan!" He stopped her.
She stopped and looked at him, so he spoke. "In between him and me things can"t be normal ever, but for me, you would always be the same. Soon I will beat him in business, but I wish you to be the same with me."
"Are you doing this because of me?" she questioned.
"Well, you are the first reason but now I want to do it for myself."
"If you are doing it for just yourself, then it"s good and you should try your best."
"I will, as you made me realize that one should have power and the position to get anything they want and I am doing it to get what I want." Ming Rusheng commented.
Jiang Yuyan understood the meaning of his words and said, "I believe money is not the only thing that one needs. One should…."
Ming Rusheng spoke before she could express her thoughts. "I thought so too, but the way things went these days made me realize I was wrong."
"I have no words to say about it, brother Rusheng, so I can just wish you the success."
"That success is worth only if the person I like can recognize it." Ming Rusheng"s words continued, making her feel uncomfortable.
Jiang Yuyan had nothing to say as whenever she tried to get the talk on the right path, Ming Rusheng moved it in another direction. She understood there was no use and thought to leave without saying a word.
Seeing her not reacting to his direct hints, Ming Rusheng felt impatient and as she looked like she gave up on talking with him, he couldn"t handle it. The alcohol messing with his brain made him talk something that Jiang Yuyan would never want to hear.
"In the future, if something goes wrong between you and him, I would wait for you. I will take care of you always and protect you. Just come to me."
This made Jiang Yuyan annoyed. "Nothing can ever go wrong with him and I and nothing can part us away. Even if the day comes, I will spend my life alone as there won"t be any place for another person ever." Jiang Yuyan countered.
Being hopeful, Ming Rusheng continued, ignoring her strong stand. "You never know, Yuyan. As I have already confessed to you by mistake, now I don"t want to hide it. Even if you are married, I still love you the same so just remember that I would wait for you always and for me too, there won"t be anyone else, ever."
Just as Jiang Yuyan was about to confront him by asking him to stop being delusional, she saw Lu Qiang coming in her direction from the hall; she avoided talking about anything and looked at him.
"What happened?" Lu Qiang asked, seeing her startled.
Before she could say anything, Ming Rusheng spoke. "Lu Qiang, she is talking to me. Do you have any objections?"
"No, I don"t, unless my wife doesn"t have any objection." Lu Qiang intentionally called her as his wife and put his hand around her shoulders, while rubbing her arm on the other side.
"Wife!" Ming Rusheng left out a soft chuckle. "Soon I will overtake you in the business, Lu Qiang. Just wait for the day when you will just disappear from here and there would be only me."
"I would be glad to get a tough compet.i.tion but you disappointed me, Ming Rusheng." Lu Qiang commented.
"Disappointed? Out of three projects, you just got one so don"t be so high in the sky, Lu Qiang."
"It would have been better if you had got them based on your abilities, but you just showed me what your real abilities are. I guess I expected too much from you."
Ming Rusheng couldn"t process the meaning behind Lu Qiang"s words as he was drunk. "Too much yet to come. Just wait for it, Lu Qiang." He then s.h.i.+fted his sight from Lu Qiang to Jiang Yuyan and spoke. "Just remember what I said." He turned and walked away from them on the lawn.
"Shall we go?" Lu Qiang asked as Jiang Yuyan was looking at Ming Rusheng. She didn"t know what to think about the situation. He was her cousin and especially the grandson of her favorite person, elder Ming. she didn"t want him to do anything that would have led him on the wrong path and it would hurt her grandpa.
"Don"t worry, he will be fine as in life everyone has something to cry for." Lu Qiang spoke, knowing what his woman must think about.
"I hope so," she replied.
"Shall we go?" Lu Qiang asked.Lu
"Hmm!" Lu Qiang escorted her to the washroom and waited for her to come out. Once the party finished, everyone left for the home, but Ming Rusheng instructed his a.s.sistant to take him to the bar where he wished to drink until he could drown himself in it.
