One more hour passed by and Jiang Yuyan woke up. As she opened her eyes, she searched for Lu Qiang. She turned her head to her right side and saw, Lu Qiang was sleeping beside her, soundly. She smiled to see his calm face as she saw him worried for her, sometimes before. Jiang Yuyan turned on her one side to look at him and touched his face with her fingers lightly, which made him come out of his sleep.
He looked at her with his sleepy eyes and asked, "How are you feeling now?"
Jiang Yuyan replied while caressing his cheek, "I was feeling little better but as I saw you now, I am feeling much better" and smiled.
Lu Qiang smiled to hear her words. He held her hand which was caressing his cheek. He kissed in her palm and asked, "Are you still feeling pain?"
"Not much. Because of the medicine, it's endurable now," she replied
Lu Qiang sat up in the bed and said while getting out of it, "You haven't eaten anything. You must be hungry."
"Well, not much." She replied while trying to get up and sit on the bed.
Lu Qiang helped her to sit and put some pillows behind her so that she can sit comfortably while leaning back to the headrest and said, "Still you have to eat as this is doctor's instruction."
Jiang Yuyan nodded and asked, "Did you eat anything?"
Lu Qiang shook his head and said, "No! I was waiting for you to wake up and join me for dinner."
Jiang Yuyan looked at the clock on the wall and said in a serious tone, "It's almost midnight. This is not dinner time. Why haven't you eaten anything?"
"Because I wanted to eat with you." Lu Qiang replied casually as avoiding the seriousness in her words.
"But you could have eaten something before, then you could have joined me again." She was upset that he hadn't eaten anything just because of her.
Lu Qiang stepped towards her and gave her a peck on lips and said, "Enough with scolding now, let's eat something first."
Jiang Yuyan nodded and both headed to another door in the lounge. Jiang Yuyan followed him blindly and went inside that room. She was again surprised to see, what was behind the one more door in the lounge. It was a beautiful and stylish dining room with a fully modular kitchen attached to it. Lu Qiang took her to the dining table and made her sit on one of the chairs and said, "Stay here. I will be back in five minutes."
Lu Qiang went to the kitchen and started to unwrap the food parcel packs. Lu Qiang had already ordered dinner for both of them and was waiting for Jiang Yuyan to wake up. He put the food in the microwave to warm it up as it was cold. Once he was done, he brought it to the dining table and served in two dishes.
Jiang Yuyan was observing him while leaning back in the chair. Her sight was following him wherever he moved. She was smiling to look at him. When he finally finished everything and sat in the chair opposite to her, Jiang Yuyan was still looking at him.
Lu Qiang was aware that she was staring at him all this time. He picked up chopsticks, looked at her and said, "If your eyes have done stalking me till your heart content, you can start eating now."
Jiang Yuyan leaned forward towards the table, rested her both arms on it with elbows and put her face on her palms. She stared in Lu Qiang's eyes and said, "What can I do? My eyes and my heart can't get enough of you."
"Ohh! Someone is being bold again" he said while picking up a portion of food in chopsticks.
"It's the fault of someone who is sitting in front of me and…." Jiang Yuyan couldn't continue her sentence as Lu Qiang put a piece of beef in her mouth. She didn't have any option but to eat it. Lu Qiang had a bite too, after feeding her. Just as Jiang Yuyan finished the food in her mouth and was about to say something, Lu Qiang again fed her few vegetables and didn't give her a chance to speak.
Jiang Yuyan was eating without saying a single word. Both were eating Quietly while Lu Qiang feeding her one bite, then another to himself. It continued like this until they finished the food in front of them. Once they finished, Lu Qiang put down the chopsticks in his hands on the dining table and said, "Now you can talk."
Jiang Yuyan wiped her mouth and said, "There is nothing to talk. When I was talking, you shut my mouth."
Lu Qiang had calm expressions on his face and said, "You should be glad that I just fed you to shut your mouth or I know other ways to do it better. Thanks to your periods and the pain you are in now, I am sitting quietly here"
"Cough-cough! I think my cramps are back, it's hurting a little," she said with a painful expression on her face. She was in a pain but she was just acting to make him scared.
Upon seeing Jiang Yuyan in a pain again, Lu Qiang got up from his chair and strode towards her. "Are you okay? Is it hurting again?"
Jiang Yuyan just nodded while pouting like a little girl. Lu Qiang didn't think for a moment and lifted her in his arms from the chair. Jiang Yuyan too didn't say anything and was enjoying his panicked reaction. He came out of the dining room and straight took her to the bed. He put her on the bed, covered her with quilt and said, "I will call doctor, till then just rest."
When he was about to move away from her, Jiang Yuyan held his hand. He turned to look back at her and said with the same panicked expression on his face, "I am not going anywhere, let me call the doctor."
Jiang Yuyan didn't let go of his hands and shook her head to hear what he said. "No need. I am fine."
"But a moment before you...."
"I was pulling your leg." She replied. Still, Lu Qiang was the same and asked, "Are you saying this just to not make feel worried?"
Jiang Yuyan smiled to see his worried face and said, "There is a little pain but I can endure it. No need to call the doctor. Just come here and sleep beside me."
Lu Qiang nodded and said, "Okay!" He then turned off all the lights in the lounge, leaving only a night lamp on and lied down beside Jiang Yuyan. He turned on his one side to look at her and asked, "Where is it hurting?"
Jiang Yuyan put her palm on her abdomen and said, "Here!"
"Hmm! Turn around and sleep facing your back to me." He said and Jiang Yuyan turned without asking him 'why' even though she wanted to. She turned and felt, Lu Qiang's warm body touching to her back. She was about to ask something, just then Lu Qiang put his palm on her abdomen, caressed it and said, "Sleep!"
Jiang Yuyan felt her pain was lessening with his palm caressing her abdomen and soon fell asleep. Lu Qiang too fell asleep in no time.
