Chapter 650 Cold And Cunning

It was the drawing of Jiang Yuyan that Lu Lijun drew when Jiang Yuyan was enjoying the cool breeze while remembering Lu Qiang but Lu Lijun hid it from her before she came to him and she was surprised to see a blank sheet in his hands thinking he drew nothing.

In that sheet, Lu Lijun drew Jiang Yuyan standing facing the hills with her eyes closed and enjoying the breeze. She looked at peace and calm.

When Jiang Yuyan came back to him with her drawing, Lu Lijun hid it again and only held the drawing of the hills in his hands.

"I think we should leave before it gets too late," said Jiang Yuyan and nodding, Lu Lijun started to pack his stuff carefully, not letting that file get into Jiang Yuyan's hands.

As there was a sheet in Jiang Yuyan's hands, she wanted to keep it in that file too. The moment she touched the file, Lu Lijun pulled it back that shocked her.

"I just want to keep my drawing in your file." As Jiang Yuyan said it, Lu Lijun took the drawing sheet from her hands and put it inside the file, not letting her touch it.

Jiang Yuyan didn't give a thought about it, as she thought most of the time Lu Lijun didn't like it if someone touched his things.

Lu Lijun put the file back in his bag and both left after collecting the whole stuff.

When both reached Lu Mansion, Jiang Yuyan didn't know after spending a peaceful time out, she had to face annoying people and their words too.

The moment Jiang Yuyan and Lu Lijun entered the living room, she saw Su Hui and her daughter-in-law were there too. Ignoring them, she took steps towards the staircase, but she heard the woman.

"You were out for so long, Yuyan."

Ignoring Su Hui's words, Jiang Yuyan continued to walk ahead as she didn't wish to argue with that woman, but she heard the aunt again.

"Did you hear me? You should be inside the home mourning over the things instead of having fun out. What will the people say?"

Not reacting to Su Hui's words, Jiang Yuyan looked at Lu Lijun and said, "Lu Lijun, go to your room and I will be there in some time."

Nodding Lu Lijun left and seeing him reaching upstairs and making sure he went to the room, Jiang Yuyan inhaled deeply and turned to face the annoying woman in her life.

"I wanted to mourn over my husband's death, aunt Su Hui but you were the one who couldn't see me sad and wanted me to get married soon," replied Jiang Yuyan as if Su Hui's words didn't matter to her.

Stepping towards Jiang Yuyan, Su Hui asked, "Is this what you call marriage?"

"I didn't want to, but the so-called customs that you followed, gave me permission to call it a marriage," Jiang Yuyan replied, looking straight into Su Hui's eyes.

"You are being so blunt to argue with elders now, huh?"

It surprised Su Hui to see Jiang Yuyan talking back at her when she was always so silent before, whenever Su Hui said something to her. Other than the day of her wedding with Lu Lijun, it was the second time Jiang Yuyan talked back.

Giving out a light chuckle, Jiang Yuyan said, "Elders? I don't see anyone here."

This angered Su Hui and she said, "If you were my daughter-in-law, then..."

"You should be thankful that this blunt woman is not your daughter-in-law or you never know what I would have done with you and your son," said Jiang Yuyan interrupting Su Hui.

"I wonder what gives the audacity to act like this? People in this home had given you so much freedom."

"Do you not know, aunt Su hui? Let me remind you again." Saying Jiang Yuyan pulled out the bunch of keys from her sling bag and held it in front of Su Hui that made the elder lady frown.

Having a mocking smirk on her lips, Jiang Yuyan said, "This…This gave me power as I am the one who will handle this family."

"You…."

"When did you come back Yuyan?"

Suddenly these women heard a voice that interrupted Su Hui and recognizing the voice, Jiang Yuyan kept silent.

It was Ning Jiahui who saw Jiang Yuyan and the other two ladies together and came there.

As Ning Jiahui reached Jiang Yuyan, she replied, "Just a while ago, mother." Her expressions were gentle, opposite to how she looked while talking to Su Hui, cold and cunning.

Looking at the keys in Jiang Yuyan's hands, Ning Jiahui asked, "Is someone trying to get these keys from you?" Her words directed towards Su Hui.

Before Su Hui could react, Jiang Yuyan spoke, "No mother. Aunt Su Hui was just making sure if I kept these keys safe or dropped somewhere."

"Hmm!" Turning to look at Su Hui, Ning Jiahui declared, "You need not worry about these keys, Su Hui. I passed it to Yuyan because there is no one better than her who can handle it well."

Ning Jiahui, who was always so sweet with Su Hui despite her bitter behavior, started to act bitter too. Ning Jiahui was upset with Su Hui the way she troubled everyone in the sad moments and she was the reason for the next unfortunate event in the family that affected Jiang Yuyan and Lu Lijun.

The way Su Hui acted so stubborn, ignoring everyone's pleading, was the thing that Ning Jiahui would never forget.

Ning Jiahui's words hurt Su Hui, but there was nothing she could do. All the power in the family was with Jiang Yuyan and Ning Jiahui, so she could only pray that in business her husband and son would take over the power.

"Take rest as it must tire you," Ning Jiahui instructed Jiang Yuyan, nodding she left while Ning Jiahui went back to her room.

The two ladies left behind could only witness the affection between the other two and grit their teeth.
