Chapter 648 Shocked Brother

"Then, promise me one thing," said Jiang Peizhi.

"I can if it's acceptable," Jiang Yuyan countered.

"You won't let anything harm you and you will always be safe."

"Rest assured, father. I have to keep myself safe for the sake of someone who needs me," Jiang Yuyan said as she looked at Lu Lijun and her parents followed her sight too.

At this moment, they felt relieved to have Lu Lijun as Jiang Yuyan will think twice before doing anything rash for his sake.

Her parents went to see the elders while Jiang Yuyan went back to Lu Lijun.

"Have you finished already?" Jiang Yuyan asked as she noticed, Lu Lijun put the paper back in one empty file which Jiang Yuyan gave him to collect all his drawings. Her behavior was totally different from how she was with her parents a while ago. One could see her having pleasant expressions whenever she was in front of Lu Lijun.

Lu Lijun nodded and she commented, "That was so fast. Let me see what you drew."

Saying, Jiang Yuyan picked up the file to check what he drew and it surprised her.

He made the pencil sketch of Jiang Yuyan, who was standing far away from him in the garden with her parents. He just drew her side face which had her golden-brown hair left open and the light breeze disturbed a few strands hanging at the side of her face.

"Hmm! It's nice but next time I want you to draw other things than me. You see there are so many beautiful things around or how about we go somewhere out so you can see nice things and draw even better," Jiang Yuyan asked and Lu Lijun nodded to the idea.

Jiang Yuyan was trying her best to make him lively like before and speak the way he used to. That sarcastic and good with words little iceberg was lost somewhere and it seemed like there was no one in his world other than Jiang Yuyan.

It worried Jiang Yuyan thinking that he might get a problem with socializing with others and he will always be aloof like this when her dream was to make him like Lu Qiang who will take his position in the family and the business.

Jiang Yuyan took him out to spend a day with him and to change his mood.

-------------

The Jiang couple went to the elders, where Ning Jiahui accompanied them too, in the elder's room.

As they all sat on the couch and elder Lu sat in his chair, he said, "Jiang Peizhi, you can get angry with me as I know what you are feeling at the moment and I am ready to accept my fault of not being able to take care of Yuyan."

Jiang Peizhi felt bad hearing it as he didn't have such intentions and said, "You are taking me wrong, father. I am here to just check on your health. What I had to say, I already said, it to Yuyan."

"It would be better if we leave her alone to let her do what she wants," the elder Lu suggested and others agreed.

"Lu Jinhai is still in bad condition. I will go see him today," elder Lu informed.

"Don't tire yourself, father. No one is allowed to go inside and I and Jiang Yang are always there," Jiang Peizhi countered.

"Still, I need to check on him," elder Lu insisted.

"Then, I'll take you there, father," Jiang Peizhi offered and elder Lu nodded.

---------

Jiang Yang was in the hospital when elder Lu and Jiang Peizhi visited there. Other than his patients, Jiang Yang's whole attention was on Lu Jinhai's condition and because of him the other family members could relax and worry less.

Lu Linhai was still in a comatose state and there was no improvement in his condition.

"When can he wake up?" elder Lu asked as they looked at Lu Jinhai through the glass barrier.

"It's difficult to say anything, grandpa. He might wake up anytime soon or it might take more than months," Jiang Yang replied.

"I hope he will wake up soon so that this family can get back to its feet again," elder Lu commented, his voice emotional and eyes teary.

"Don't worry grandpa, he will."

As they went to the waiting room and sat on the sofa, Jiang Yang decided to tell them something that he didn't as the conditions were already sad.

"There is something I want to tell you, grandpa," Jiang Yang said.

"Hmm!"

"Uncle had a serious injury on his spine and affected it badly so once he woke up, it might be difficult for him to walk or he might now walk, ever."

There was no surprise or shocked reaction from elder Lu as if he was already expecting to get one more sad news and said, "I just wish him to wake up first."

Jiang Peizhi felt sad for his friend but agreed with elder Lu, "I wish the same, father." Turning to look at his son, Jiang Peizhi spoke again, "There is something I need to tell you too, Jiang Yang."

"Yes, father," Jiang Yang replied, being ready to hear and get the shock.

"Yuyan…." Jiang Peizhi stopped not knowing how to continue and seeing his father after taking Yuyan's name, it scared Jiang Yang.

"W-What happened to her? Is she alright?" he asked, anxious and worried.

Jiang Yang didn't worry about his sister after seeing her acting strong for the sake of Lu Lijun and he knew she won't do anything to harm herself again. Also, he trusted the family that they would take care of her when he was busy handling the things in the hospital for Lu Jinhai.

Not even in his dream, he thought that something will happen that will shock him, and later he will curse himself for ignoring her and not being able to take care of her.

"Yuyan got married," Jiang Peizhi informed.

In a shock, Jiang Yang exclaimed, "What?"

Jiang Yang couldn't believe his father's words. For him, Yuyan marrying someone was the most impossible thing. The entire world can move upside down but she won't ever marry anyone, he was sure of this one thing.
