Chapter 212 Comforting A Sister

Su Hui was still in shock but didn't dare to say or ask anything. The party was over and when Elder Lu found some time alone, he went to Lu Feng and Jiang Yang who were busy talking to each other and asked, "Is Jiang Yuyan with Lu Qiang?"

Lu Feng looked in another direction as not wanting to answer elder Lu while Jiang Yang nodded saying 'Yes' as he knew elder Lu was the person who was already aware of lots of things and there was no point in hiding it from him.

"Glad to know it or I thought, this time both were going to prolong their fight," elder Lu said after giving out a deep sigh and went towards his son, Lu Jinhai to talk. "So, what we heard about him was the truth?," elder Lu asked.

"Yes, father! But don't worry. Zhi Ruo would be safe and happy with him," replied Lu Jinhai to assure his father.

"I hope so too as I am worried about her father, Zhi Guang too. How is he now?"

"Hmm! He is still in Hospital, father. Soon I will visit him." Lu Jinhai replied and both went to their rooms.

Next morning…

Lu Qiang woke up and saw a message on his cell phone. He looked at Jiang Yuyan who was sleeping peacefully. He immediately went to the bathroom to get ready as he had to go somewhere as mentioned in the message, he received. Once he came out of the bathroom and got ready, he kissed on Jiang Yuyan's forehead who was awake by then and said, "I have to go somewhere so you sleep and I will be back soon."

Jiang Yang nodded and said bye to him. Coming out of the room, he went to the garden of the hotel. The man was waiting for him with Zhi Ruo sitting in a four-seater coffee table. The man stood up to greet Lu Qiang with a handshake.

"Nice to meet you after so many years, Lu Qiang." The man said while still carrying his usual cold expressions but there was a little difference in the way he was talking to Lu Qiang from the way he talked to others. His eyes showed Lu Qiang was someone who was dear to him.

"Nice to see you too. I didn't expect us to meet in a situation like this" Lu Qiang replied while having respect for the man in front of him.

"Thank you for understanding the situation and not meddling in between." The man said while moving his sight across Zhi Ruo, who was sitting quietly in the chair with her head down.

"I did it for the sake of Zhi Ruo, so no need to thank me." Lu Qiang said while looking at silent Zhi Ruo. The girl who couldn't be quiet for a single moment was sitting like a lifeless body. When she heard Lu Qiang, she looked at him being upset for not supporting her.

Lu Qiang averted his sight from her and said to look at the man again, "Right now she is not aware of lots of things happened around her so it was obvious for her to take this step."

The Man nodded and said to divert the topic, "From what I saw last night, I think your wait for someone is over."

"Hmm! I know, nothing can miss your eyes. You are right about it though and I hope I would be able to say the same thing to you too." Lu Qiang said while passing his sight across Zhi Ruo who were unaware of what these two were talking about.

The man understood what Lu Qiang meant and said, "You are thinking too much, Lu Qiang."

"Well, I hope, I am not." Lu Qiang said to which the man smiled a little. Lu Qiang continued, "I know you are the only one who can protect and take care of her that's why I took a decision to allow you to take her with you and I hope you won't disappoint me and him."

The man had darkness in his eyes upon hearing 'Him' word from Lu Qiang and said while clenching his fist, "He is the reason, she is still alive or I would have…."

"Don't say something that you didn't mean. I think, there is no need to make a smart person like you realize, what is right and what is wrong." Lu Qiang stopped him before he could say something that might make him regret in the future.

"I think we should leave now." The man said not wanting to react to what Lu Qiang said. Lu Qiang nodded as saying 'Okay' and stepped towards Zhi Ruo.

Zhi Ruo understood It was a time for her to leave so she stood up. Lu Qiang stood in front of her and said, "I know, you are upset with me but trust me this is the best thing I could have done for you. I did what I have done for my sister."

Zhi Ruo looked at him with the tears in her eyes. She felt choked and couldn't say anything. Lu Qiang patted her head and said, "Things are not always what you see on the surface so trust me and go with him. He is the one for you."

Tears rolled down form Zhi Ruo's eyes. She was about to wipe them with her palm but suddenly there was handkerchief in front of her. She looked at it and it was the man who was offering it to her. Lu Qiang had it too but he didn't offer it to her as he was sure to see this picture.

Zhi Ruo didn't accept it and instead wiped her tears again with her palm. The man frowned and held her hand to put his handkerchief in her hand and stepped away to stand a distance away from her while facing in other direction.

She was standing there while staring at the handkerchief in her hands. "I told you, things are not what you are seeing. The actual picture is totally different, Zhi Ruo. You don't know him well yet." Lu Qiang said to make her feel better and to show her reality,

Zhi Ruo listened to Lu Qiang and said, "I have committed a sin, Lu Qiang. Seeing me every day must be the torture from him. I don't want him to protect me or look after me. Why doesn't he just kill me or let me go away from him?"

"Because, somewhere in his heart, he is aware that it was not your fault and you are hurt too as much he is."

Zhi Ruo looked at the man who was standing a bit far while facing his back towards them and said, "I think, I should leave now and I am sorry to trouble you, Lu Qiang."

"You are not a trouble Zhi Ruo. You are like a sister to me. If you need me ever, I am always here to help you."

Zhi Ruo smiled to hear him and stepped towards The man. As Zhi Ruo reached to him, the man started walking in the direction of the car waiting for them at the entrance of the hotel. Both the man and Zhi Ruo sat in the car. Zhi Ruo looked at Lu Qiang and waved her hand to him to say goodbye. Lu Qiang just smiled while standing there with his hands tucked in his pockets and left to go inside once Zhi Ruo disappeared from his sight.
