"Lu Qiang said the same thing but still it’s all awkward for me and when he said, that other family members know about it too then I couldn’t take it and..." She stopped suddenly as feeling bad about what she did.
"You asked him not to sleep in your room anymore and he is upset. Right?" Lu Feng said what she wanted to say.
Jiang Yuyan nodded and said, "Yes!"
Lu Feng smiled and said, "That was the normal and obvious reaction from your side so don’t feel bad but what Lu Qiang is behaving is a normal reaction from his side too."
Jiang Yuyan agreed and said, "Might be but he should understand what and why I did that."
"I know you are right in your place and I am not saying Lu Qiang is right but the reason for me to think about his side too is not wrong. You don’t know but after so many years, these are the days when I am seeing him happy and it is just because of your presence in his life. Since a very young age, he is just working and working to give others a comfortable life but he never ever thought about his dreams or what he wants in life."
Jiang Yuyan looked at Lu Feng with surprised expressions on her face to hear what he said. She had an idea about it but the way Lu Feng was saying it, she thought it was really sad on Lu Qiang’s part.
Lu Feng continued while his focus on driving. "First time in his life he wants something that can be only for him, the first time in his life he is being greedy and seeking happiness. This something can make up for all his sacrifices and everything he did for others while keeping his own needs aside and that something is you Yuyan."
Jiang Yuyan didn’t know what to say. Upon hearing it she felt even sadder. She knew Lu Qiang worked hard all these years and sacrificed a lot but hearing it from Lu Feng, made her feel sadder.
Lu Feng realized she is feeling bad now so he said, "I am not saying this to make you feel bad. I am just saying this to tell you about his side and why he is being like this. All those years he waited for you and now you are here, he doesn’t want to part away from you even for a second and that is understandable."
Lu Feng paused for a while and spoke again, "The thing that is concerning you right now, is not wrong in his opinion because he only knows one thing and that is he loves you and wants to be with you, whatever it takes.
Jiang Yuyan nodded and replied, "I am getting what you are trying to say and I am not going to stay away from him too but I just don’t want to do anything because of which I have to feel embarrassed in front of all family members. It doesn’t feel good as we are not married yet."
Lu Feng replied, "Yes I know. Give him some time to understand it. Right now he is blinded by the love for you."
"Yup! I will." She replied.
Just then they arrived at the university gate. Lu Feng parked his car and both stepped out. Lu Feng went with her to the gate and was about to say bye, he heard a voice.
"So today another bodyguard is here to protect Jiang Yuyan."
Lu Feng and Jiang Yuyan turned to look at it and saw it was Ming Rusheng who came to drop his sister Ming Lan. Ming Lan smiled with a little nod to see Lu Feng. Though they never talked, they knew each other by faces. Lu Feng too replied to her smile with a little nod.
As Ming siblings reached near to them, Lu Feng replied to what Ming Rusheng said, "What can we do as there are wolves around and need to protect her from them."
Ming Rusheng smiled and said, "Really? So dogs are going to hunt wolves now?"
Lu Feng replied, "Well, you never know, that can be a lion under the skin of a dog."
"Or scared cat might be," Ming Rusheng replied,
"That time will show." Lu Feng was replying calmly to what Ming Rusheng was saying.
"I Will wait for that day then," said Ming Rusheng
What these two were talking about didn’t feel good to two ladies standing there. Suddenly Ming Lan said, "We are getting late Jiang Yuyan, we should go." Jiang Yuyan looked at Lu Feng and said, "I will go now, you should go too." She looked at Ming Rusheng and smiled for the sake of formality.
Jiang Yuyan was aware of the cold war between two families and she didn’t want these two to continue their toxic talk any more. Last she witnessed it was Lu Qiang and Ming Rusheng and now it was with Lu Feng.
Lu Feng nodded to and said Jiang Yuyan, "First you go inside then I will leave."
Both Ming Lan and Jiang Yuyan went inside the gate while these two men were standing outside of the gate. Ming Rusheng spoke, "Where is president Lu? I was expecting to see him here."
Lu Feng replied, "He is a president, have lots of works to do and not anymore free like us."
Ming Rusheng replied, "I wonder why you are free here? You should be sitting on that chair where Lu Qiang is sitting now."
Upon hearing it, a calm expression on Lu Feng’s face changed and he looked at Ming Rusheng with a killer gaze and said, "Everyone gets what they deserve and trust me both of us deserves to be free only."
Ming Rusheng laughed and said, "Well not me. I am going to be too much busy soon."
"With the things prepared by your father already. it’s worth only if you earned it on your own." Lu Feng’s reply made Ming Rusheng feel salty and he said, "Lu Qiang too climbed on the ladder prepared by his father. You should have said this to him too."
Lu Feng replied with respect for Lu Qiang in his heart, "Not really. He fixed the badly broken ladder first then climbed onto it, unlike you."
Ming Rusheng laughed and said, "Ohh! too much love for a brother. I am afraid, one day this love might convert into something else."
Lu Feng replied calmly to Ming Rusheng’s stingy words, "Daydreaming is not a good thing Ming Rusheng."
Ming Rusheng smiled mischievously and asked, "Are you planning to be a loyal dog for whole life and guard the ladder?"
"Nope! I am planning to be the one to hold that ladder tightly to not let him fall down," replied Lu Feng
Ming Rusheng sighed and said, "Hmm what can I say now?"
"You better shut your mouth. Hope not to see you ever again," Lu Feng said it and stepped towards his car.
Ming Rusheng called him again, "Lu Feng! In the future, if you need any help, I am always there."
Lu Feng replied, "Yeah, I will be needing someone to break your toxic mouth." Lu Feng said and sat inside his car and left. Ming Rusheng had a mischievous smile on his face. He looked back to the university gate and saw Jiang Yuyan was nowhere to be seen. He sat in his car and left too.
