Lu Qiang and Jiang Yang went to one of the most expensive foreign brand designer cloth showroom. A Sale assistant welcomed them. The store manager was happy to see Lu Qiang in his store. He personally attended them. Lu Qiang looked at Jiang Yang as asking 'What to buy?'
Jiang Yang smiled and said in a very low voice, "Why are you looking at me? You have to select it on your own. It's the birthday of your woman, not mine".
Lu Qiang shot him an unpleasant look and annoyingly said, "I don't know what she likes, that's why I brought you here with me".
Jiang Yang mischievously smiled and said, "I have already been doing it since last 8 years. Now it's your turn, so don't even think about to bother me. Moreover, She will like anything you give as a gift to her, even a burlap sack will do".
"Huh?" Lu Qiang looked at him questioningly.
Jiang Yang patted the back side of Lu Qiang's shoulder lightly and assured him, "Trust me".
Lu Qiang shrugged his shoulders and asked, "Okay! Just help me with the size then?"
Jiang Yang shook his head and slyly smiled, "What was the use of leaving both of you alone in my home?"
Lu Qiang looked at him annoyingly and said, "You are really an a**hole".
Jiang Yang was not affected by his words and said shamelessly to tease Lu Qiang, "No need to praise me again and again darling. I know, how much you like me".
Lu Qiang couldn't help but frown.
Jiang Yang said again after watching him frowning, "Now, you are behaving like my sister. Those annoyed and frowned expressions, I simply love it".
Lu Qiang didn't have anything to say and just turned towards the showroom manager and told him what he is looking for and asked him to show their latest collection. The manager knew, it was a golden opportunity to make a big sale, so he grabbed this opportunity. He instructed sale assistant and they brought out all the best and most expensive collection in their store.
Lu Qiang started to go through dresses, while Jiang Yang stood there watching him. Jiang Yang wanted, Lu Qiang to do everything on his own for Jiang Yuyan.
He just wished that, on his sister's birthday, these two should reconcile and clear the misunderstanding between them. Jiang Yang could have done that, but he wanted to give them time to realise their own feelings and understand each other better by solving the problems between them on their own. He wanted to create an opportunity when these two fools couldn't avoid each other.
Lu Qiang finally picked up a lavender colour dress which he liked and showed it to Jiang Yang.
Jiang Yang gave an expressions like he didn't know and shrugged his shoulder and curled his lips downward with his hands tucked in his pockets.
Lu Qiang sighed and looked at the dress again. He was confused about the size, but finally, Jiang Yang stepped forward and helped him. Afterwards, they chose matching accessories and footwear. Once they were done, Jing Yang said, "This is the first and the last time I am helping you with this".
Lu Qiang asked the manager to pack the dress and other stuff which he had selected and handed him over his black card. Then he looked at Jiang Yang and said mockingly, "There won't be any next time, as I am going to use my next good time to know her thoroughly. You just need to inform me about the emergency in the hospital."
Afterwards, Lu Qiang moved to the couch and sat there to wait for the dress to get packed.
Jiang Yang was taken aback after hearing his reply. He didn't expect this kind of reply from Lu Qiang. However, he immediately collected himself and went towards couch, sat there and said while thinking about something, "Thoroughly?? Hmmm! I am sure, at least you will be confident about her dress size next time".
Lu Qiang thought, his bold words might stopped Jiang Yang's shamelessness, just like he always did with his grandpa, but he understood one thing for sure that no one can stop these two. Then he annoyingly replied "You are not bothered at all, even if I talked about her so boldly. She is your sister鈥?."
"A sister to whom I handled exactly like a mother handles to her baby. I am her everything since last 8 years. Even when she had her periods first time and didn't know what to do, I was the one to guide her" Jiang Yang cut Lu Qiang off and said with a serious expression on his face and that bold and shameless Jiang Yang was nowhere to be seen.
Lu Qiang could sense the change in Jiang Yang's face whenever they talked about Jiang Yuyan's past. He also had a worried expressions on his face and asked, "Was her condition that bad?"
Jiang Yang looked at the floor, nodded and said, "Hmmm! She never allowed anyone near her other than me, not even my parents. Even, doctors pulled their hands back. For three years, I couldn't even think about to leave her alone."
On hearing this, Lu Qiang's face dropped and he said, "At such a difficult time in her life, I was not around to her".
Jiang Yang looked at Lu Qiang and patted his shoulder, "Don't feel bad about it. Even if you were there, there might have been no use".
Both were immersed in their own thoughts, just then the showroom's manager arrived with two gift boxes in his hands. The boxes were wrapped in a beautiful, baby pink colour attractive gift wrapping paper.
It was almost late in the afternoon, so finally they decide to take a break for lunch. They went to one nearby restaurant for lunch. After making an order, lunch came and both started to eat. Just then something flashed in Jiang Yang's mind. He smiled and teased him again, "Why do I feel like I am on a date with my sister's boyfriend and betraying her behind her back? We did everything that couple should do. What do you think?"
Lu Qiang put the chopsticks in his hands down on the table then gave a killer gaze to Jiang Yang and said, "I'll prefer to go to the Himalaya and spend my whole life as celibate instead of going on a date with you".
"Ahhh! That was so rude. You broke my heart. My heart is bleeding"He patted left side of his heart having a sad puppy like expression.
"What an eyesore!" Lu Qiang averted his sight from this shameless man, picked up chopsticks and started to dig in his food.
Jiang Yang looked at him and couldn't help but laugh and said, "I got one more candidate to whom I can annoy and enjoy my free time".
Lu Qiang decided to ignore him.
