Chapter 281 - Wedding planning (Part-1)

Chapter-281

"I love you." Mo Jiang confessed.

Liu Juan's body stiffened again. Not in fear but in shock. She looked at Mo Jiang with wide-open eyes and tried to figure out what she just heard.

Did Mo Jiang confess to her just now?

Did he just say that he loved her?

Was he telling the truth?

Tons of questions were roaming in her mind such that she forgot that Mo Jiang was waiting for her response.

However, her mind had turned more muddled than before such that she didn't bother to think about him.

On the other hand, Mo Jiang's anxiousness grew upon seeing that she didn't say a word. 

Was he too late to say this?

Did she no longer love him?

Love was a strange word for him. Before Liu Juan, many girls came into his life, but all of them were with him only to satisfy his d.e.s.i.r.e of l.u.s.t. He never felt emotions of liking and love towards those girls even after those girls shouted their true love for him. However, things turned out to be different when it came to Liu Juan. 

Mo Jiang hadn't been intimate with Liu Juan yet but his heart definitely beat fast when he thought about her and a hoard of butterflies burst into his stomach when he saw her smiling face.

Mo Jiang didn't realize these things before Liu Juan was admitted to the hospital but her absence made him realize her value and his feelings for her.

"Juan…" He anxiously called out to her.

Liu Juan came back to her senses and she burst out. "You are lying."

"What?" This was not what he was expecting. 

"Why would I lie to you?" Mo Jiang angrily asked.

"So you are telling the truth?" It was more like a question than a sentence.

"But why?" Liu Juan asked further.

Mo Jiang's brows frowned upon hearing her question. His anxiousness was turning into annoyance.

"Why do you love me?" Mo Jiang asked instead.

"Because you care for me." An obvious reply came from her.

"So do you, that's why I love you." Mo Jiang used her words to convey the reasoning behind his love for her.

Whereas, even he didn't know why he loved her.

Liu Juan nodded on his response but didn't believe him.

And the only thought that roamed in her mind was 'Perhaps, he wants me to get completely treated sooner, that's why he is confessing his fake love to me.'

Seeing her dull response, Mo Jiang's aura turned murderous, not for Liu Juan but for Zhou Xuiye.

She had turned a great moment of his life into a 'dry as dust' moment.

"Okay, don't think about it anymore. Come on, let's go take a walk in the garden." Mo Jiang said and his words confirmed her thoughts which in turn made her more disappointed in him.

If he had said one more time, she would have believed but he didn't.

Afterward, they went for a walk and in the night, Mo Jiang slept with her so her nightmares didn't come.

However, she had to consider Zhou Xuiye's words. Those men were killed by her and she wasn't freed from them. 

Now if she wanted to be free, she needed to walk on that painful path which she had been avoiding from many years.

Therefore, the next morning, Liu Juan reached Zhou Xuiye's office and announced, "I am ready."

Zhou Xuiye was elated upon hearing this but she still asked to confirm. "Are you sure about it? Have you thought about it thoroughly?"

"Yes, but I have one condition." Liu Juan replied.

"What?"

"Mo Jiang shouldn't be present at that moment."

Zhou Xuiye was stunned upon hearing this condition of Liu Juan. Liu Juan always wanted Mo Jiang to be beside her but she didn't want it at such a crucial point of time. "Why do you not want him to be there?"

"He confessed to me yesterday seeing my weak condition and I don't want him to pity me because of my past." Liu Juan said truthfully to her.

Hearing her reasoning, Zhou Xuiye felt guilty.

She just wanted to teach Mo Jiang a lesson by ruining his plans but if she knew that Liu Juan would take his confession as a pity on her, she wouldn't have ruined his plan.

Now, what should she do?

"Listen Juan…" Zhou Xuiye was clearing Jaun's misunderstanding but Mo Jiang interrupted the two of them at that instant. "Fine, I won't be present there."

He was standing near the door. Seeing his sports attire, he must have gone jogging and taking the opportunity of that moment, Liu Juan came here to talk to Zhou Xuiye.

But why did Mo Jiang also agree with Liu Juan's condition? He should have cleared Liu Juan's misunderstanding and must be present beside her.

On the other hand, Liu Juan was startled to see him at the door, but more than that, she was disappointed. It seemed that he really pitied her.

Afterward, Mo Jiang walked away from there after giving a deadly stare to Zhou Xuiye.

"We will start your session from tomorrow." Zhou Xuiye said after releasing a heavy sigh.

It seemed like Mo Jiang was really planning to kill her.

Should she increase the number of bodyguards at her door?

"No. Let's start from today. I don't want to delay it anymore." Liu Juan came to this decision after a lot of struggle. Now she wanted this struggle to end. She wanted to live a normal life. In a normal life where she put in efforts to win Mo Jiang's love so that he could say to her again, "Liu Juan, I love you."

"Alright. Stay here. Let me ask a few more questions then we will set a time for your session." Zhou Xuiye said to which Liu Juan nodded.

After an hour, Liu Juan reached her room where she found a note.

"I am leaving. 

~Mo Jiang."
