"Don’t call me your darling, as you are planning to betray me," said Lu Feng.
Jiang Yang was sitting beside Lu Feng. Hearing it, he shifted closer to Lu Feng just as Jiang Yuyan did with Lu Qiang, "Ohh! Darling seems jealous."
Shifting away from him, Lu Feng frowned, "Jealous? My A**!"
Seeing him annoyed, all three laughed. "You are talking like Yuyan now. You know it’s her favorite line to say."
Hearing it, Jiang Yuyan exclaimed, "Brother!"
Lu Qiang was surprised to hear it, "Really? I never heard her saying it"
"Hmm! It’s only when I annoy her to death. Do you want to see the demo?" saying it he looked at his sister who was upset with him.
"Stop it, brother! You ....."
Just then Mo Ruolan came to the Living room and asked them to come to the dining room as lunch was ready. Jiang Peizhi was not present there as he went to see his dear friend Lu Jinhai.
After lunch, again three friends excused themselves to go upstairs in Jiang Yang’s room to which Jiang Yuyan gave them a displeased glare.
Noticing her unhappy expressions, Jiang Yang said, "Sister we are going to do some men’s talk that you might find embarrassing. Do you want to come with us?"
Jiang Yuyan knew her brother was making up the stuff and they were going to talk about something that they didn’t want her to know. "I am fine. Go ahead. I will be with mom."
When they entered the bedroom, Lu Qiang and Lu Feng stepped towards the couch to sit but Jiang Yang stopped them, "Not here, let’s go outside in the balcony. Today the weather is too good." Jiang Yang said with a pleasant smile on his face.
"There is nothing special. It’s the same as usual." Lu Feng said, noticing the reason behind his smile and stepped towards the balcony along with Lu Qiang.
As they reached out, Jiang Yang spoke again, "For me, it’s something new." Saying it he moved to the railing of the balcony.
Lu Qiang looked at Lu Feng but didn’t know from where to start the conversation with Jiang Yang and went towards the railing too. Both were standing on Jiang Yang’s either side looking at the view in front. The wind was blowing calmly and everything seems too peaceful.
"Shoot guys." Jiang Yang said suddenly that made both of his friends to look at him in a surprise.
Jiang Yang spoke again, "I know what you guys are here for and what you want to know." Jiang Yang was one smartest person to grasp the things. Moreover, he knew his friends better, that when, why and what they wanted to do,
Looking at him, Lu Qiang straight came to the point, "If you know it already then say it."
"Hmm! I tried to not think about her but I can’t do it." Jiang Yang replied.
Hearing it, Lu Feng was unhappy as he was worried about Jiang Yang, "As we know, if we say not do something, you would want to do it even more."br>"It’s not that Lu Feng. I liked her since the first day I saw her. Since that day she is in my mind and I can’t get her out of it." Jiang Yang tried to clear his side.
"We are asking you to back down because we care for you and we don’t want you to be in any kind of trouble." Lu Qiang understood him as he too was in love but this time it was a matter of his friend’s safety.
Jiang Yang turned around and stood while resting his back on the railing. He looked at both of his friends, "Is it because of her family?"
"Hmm!" Both nodded.
"Yeah! They seem weird people and she looked scared when two men from her family came to visit her mother."
"You met them?" Lu Qiang asked.
Jiang Yang nodded, "Hmm! One was her father and another was her brother but I wonder why she reacted that way with her own father and brother, specifically her brother."
"Stepbrother!" Lu Feng exclaimed as he was not happy to remember that man.
"Ohh! So she has a problem with her stepbrother?"
"It’s a long story, Jiang Yang. Just listen to our advice and stay away from that family," Lu replied.
"I have no interest in her family but with her, I can’t take my step back that I took forward once last night." Jiang Yang was determined by his decision.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Both looked at him, thinking about what he might have done.
"I kissed her and I don’t want to be one of those jerks who took advantage of a girl and then left her. Also, I can see, she likes me. As I started it, I can’t disappoint her now."
"It’s not a big deal Jiang Yang. I am sure she herself would want you to stay away from her and her family," Lu Feng tried to convince him again.
"She might be but I don’t want to leave her alone now. The way she reacted last night I know she likes me too. Moreover, whenever I see her I feel like to protect her. She is one scared and lost the person who pretends to be strong on the outside but in reality, she needs someone who can protect and take care of her." Jiang Yang said.
"We know, but you can’t do anything for her, instead of just creating one more weakness for her." Lu Feng was focused on trying to divert Jiang Yang while Lu Qiang was thinking about something.
"Why is it like this? Will you guys care to explain it to me? I want to know everything now," said Jiang Yang.
"No need Jiang Yuyan. Just stay away from all these things." Lu Feng denied.
Lu Qiang and Lu Feng were aware that if they told him everything, he will feel even more sympathetic towards her and they won’t be able to stop him from going to her. They preferred to stay silent.
