Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“A man who make his own woman cry is the most despicable…”
Jiang Yuning groaned as she cried and continued lying against Lu Jingzhi’s chest. After a long time, she finally stopped crying upon remembering that they were going to visit Chen Jingshu. She quickly wiped her tears before telling Lu Jingzhi, “If you do not want to tell me about the planned elopement, then I will find out about it all by myself.”
“Your eyes are already so swollen and red from all that crying. Don’t you want your eyes anymore?” Lu Jingzhi asked as he patted her head gently. “We will talk more about it when we get back to the villa.”
“Don’t lie to me anymore.”
“Do you really think that I enjoy lying to you so much?” Lu Jingzhi asked with a frown on his face. He really did not know what else he could do to assure Jiang Yuning.
Jiang Yuning sobbed, still feeling sad and depressed at the thought of Lu Jingzhi giving up everything he had and even asking for his uncle’s help just because of her.
She still felt the pain, even though the matter had already happened a few years ago.
A short while later, the car that they were in finally reached the residential area in the suburbs. The young paparazzo was already waiting in front of the nursing home when they arrived. He was carrying a backpack and he quickly ran over to Jiang Yuning as soon as he saw her getting out of the car. “Sister Yuning, you are finally here!”
Jiang Yuning turned around and signalled the driver to wind up the car windows.
“Were you crying?” the paparazzo asked when he saw her red and puffy eyes.
“It’s nothing,” Jiang Yuning quickly replied. “I’ve just found out about a very stupid thing. I was crying because I was too touched. Let’s go.”
Lu Jingzhi was speechless.
“Who else is here with you in the car? Are they here to visit Sister Jingshu too?” the paparazzo asked, full of curiosity.
“He is a very important person. It is not convenient for him to drop by to visit her,” Jiang Yuning replied before walking into the dark and damp residential area with the young paparazzo.
This time, Chen Jingshu did not show any resistance but willingly let them into her house instead. However, when she heard about Lu Zongye’s upcoming wedding, her eyes turned cold and she merely said, “God is so unfair.”
“No. You have to trust me that God is fair. In fact, the reason I am here today is to ask you if you would like to return to the Lu family,” Jiang Yuning told Chen Jingshu in a serious manner. “Once the truth is revealed, and based on Grandpa Lu’s personality, he would never allow anyone with the Lu family blood to be out in this world suffering like this. Furthermore, there might still be a cure for your legs…”
“Sister Jingshu, I will release this news the day after Lu Zongye’s wedding. If you would like to witness the tragic end of both Lu Zongye and his mother, just let me know. I can make arrangements for you.”
“I have been dreaming…I have been dreaming of this day for a very long time,” Chen Jingshu said as she clenched her fists tightly. “You can just start making the arrangements for me now. I have been waiting for this day to come.”
“You can be rest assured that there will definitely be a good show for you to watch. Besides that, I have also arranged for a doctor who is willing to take a look at your legs for you. You can think about it and when you have finally decided, you can contact him directly.”
Chen Jingshu looked down at the name card that Jiang Yuning had placed into her hands and she felt extremely touched at that moment.
As a matter of fact, Lu Jingzhi had given Jiang Yuning the doctor’s name card just before she got off the car earlier.
…
Less than half an hour later, Jiang Yuning and the young paparazzo walked out of the dark and damp residential area together. They headed straight towards the black car that was parked out there waiting for them.
“How did you come here?” Jian Yuning asked the young paparazzo. She did not dare to offer the young paparazzo a ride as she thought that it might be inconvenient for Lu Jingzhi.
“I rode my bike here,” the young paparazzo said pitifully. “It took me almost three hours to ride all the way here.”
Jiang Yuning took out her cell phone, intending to call a taxi for the young paparazzo. However, just before she could make the call, the man in the black car rolled down the window and said, “Get in the car.”
Although there was really nothing to be afraid of, the young paparazzo remained silent, not daring to speak at all.
Without further ado, Jiang Yuning immediately signalled the young paparazzo to take the seat right next to the driver.
The young paparazzo did not understand what was going on. Thus, as soon as they got into the car, he turned around, wanting to ask Jiang Yuning about the situation. However, as soon as he saw Lu Jingzhi’s face, he could not speak at all. Lu Jingzhi’s expression was so domineering that the young paparazzo could not help but to shudder.
Jiang Yuning could not help laughing when she saw the young boy’s reaction. “At last, someone is able to keep you quiet for a moment!”
“If I knew, I would not have gotten into the car,” the young paparazzo replied.
“Young boy, hurry and greet your brother-in-law,” Jiang Yuning said with a smile on her face.
The young boy turned around but he did not dare to look directly into Lu Jingzhi’s eyes. He could only twitch as he quickly greeted, “Hello, brother-in-law.”
“Hey,” Lu Jingzhi responded faintly.
Why did the voice of his brother-in-law sound so familiar?
The young paparazzo kept mulling over this fact and he could not get his mind off it. As a person who worked actively in the media, he was familiar with not only all of the male artistes in the entertainment circle, but also the big shots and important people who were not in the industry. However, no matter how hard he thought, he just could not seem to figure out who he was.
It was only when the black car had arrived in front of his school gate that the young paparazzo suddenly gasped and placed his hand over his mouth.
“The boy has finally reacted to your identity,” Jiang Yuning said as she looked at the young boy who had just gotten off the car.
There was indeed a reaction from the young paparazzo. He was in shock. Wasn’t he the second young master of the Lu family, Lu Jingzhi?
“I will get out of the car and tell him not to let anyone else know about this,” Jiang Yuning quickly said. She was afraid that the young paparazzo would share this information with his friends out of excitement. Therefore, she opened the car door and quickly got down from the car. “Young boy.”
“Sister Yuning?” The young boy frowned as he looked at Jiang Yuning. “Are you only seeing the second young master of the Lu family to try to retaliate against the third young master?”
“Why would you think that? Whatever that is going on between me and Lu Jingzhi is not as simple as that,” Jiang Yuning replied as she smacked the young boy’s head. “Do you really think I would put in so much time and effort just to get back at a scumbag like him?”
“That is true. Sister Yuning, you have really outdone yourself this time. Hurry up and sign a few more autographs for me! This brother-in-law is really…amazing!” the young paparazzo said as he gave her a thumbs up. “That scumbag Lu Zongye would be so mad when he finds out about this!”
Jiang Yuning signed a few more autographs for the young boy before hitting him gently on the head. “I still have some things that I need to discuss with you. I will call you later.”
“Alright then.” The young boy took the autographs and walked happily into his school.
Jiang Yuning was interested in signing an employment contract with Guangying Media. Therefore, once she received an audition notice, she would need a personal assistant of her own.
As soon as she got back into the car, she looked at Lu Jingzhi and said, “Did you really have to be that cold to him?”
“I’m used to it,” Lu Jingzhi replied indifferently.
“I think you were born like that,” Jiang Yuning said as she recalled Lu Jingzhi’s reaction and expressions from the very first time she met him. He did not speak much and was an introvert most of the times.
But that was the kind of attitude that attracted a woman to a man.
“Today, we have finally told two people about our relationship. It feels really good to share the news with someone,” Jiang Yuning said as she rested her head on Lu Jingzhi’s shoulders. “However, I think we need to be extra careful and low-key in the future. If we were to be secretly photographed by the media, it would be very troublesome then.”
Lu Jingzhi stared at Jiang Yuning but he did not say anything.
For him, as long as he could be together with Jiang Yuning, he did not intend to hide the truth from anyone. However, he knew that he had to be considerate towards Jiang Yuning too.
Jiang Yuning had a lot of worries and concern.
“Second brother, thank you for accompanying me today. Although we did not do much, I am still extremely satisfied,” Jiang Yuning said as she hugged Lu Jingzhi tightly and gave him a peck on his cheek. “Now, let me send you to your meeting. How long will your meeting take?”
“About two hours,” Lu Jingzhi replied.
“Then, I will just wait for you in the car so that the first person you see right after the meeting is me! Didn’t you say that you have already made some arrangements for tonight? I want us to spend the night romantically together tonight…okay?”
Jiang Yuning’s attitude was really similar to that of a fox.
She could be very blunt and straight at times, but when she wanted to be gentle, she could be really soft.
Furthermore, she was only gentle and soft to Lu Jingzhi. “Alright then,” Lu Jingzhi quickly replied.
‘I will definitely eat you up tonight!’ Jiang Yuning happily thought to herself.
