MY BROTHER IN-LAW TURN HUSBAND - SEASON 1 EPISODE 74

Jiang Yang looked at his sister and said, “Soon, you have to shift to Lu Mansion. Start packing your stuff”

She looked at her brother and worriedly said, “Can’t I just stay at university dormitory?”

“How can that be possible. You know….” Jiang Yang was about to say that grandpa Lu won’t agree to it but a voice interrupted him.

“Why not? She can stay wherever she feels comfortable.” Lu Qiang said while going through his phone. He had no expressions on his face.

Jiang Yuyan looked at him with a surprised expression. She didn’t expect Lu Qiang would say this. She understood, he was doing it because of the last night’s incident.

“But grandpa Lu ……?”Jiang Yang tried to explain but again he got interrupted.

“I’ll handle him” Lu Qiang’s reply was firm that left Jiang Yang fall short for the reasons to let his sister stay at Lu Mansion. Grandpa Lu was his biggest weapon but that wouldn’t work now.

Lu Qiang thought, Jiang Yuyan didn’t want to stay at Lu Mansion because of him and whatever happened last night must have scared her, so he didn’t want to force her to stay in Lu Mansion.

Jiang YuYan thought, he must be blaming himself for her condition and that’s why he is not forcing her to stay at his place. She looked at him, he had no expression on his face and looked very different from his usual flirty self. Her heart sank to see him like this. She wanted to say ‘It’s not because of you. It’s me, who is at fault’.

Jiang Yang came up with one more reason, “Mom-Dad already agreed for it and canceled her application for university dormitory”.

“Don’t worry, I’ll arrange everything best for her” He again replied in the same way without giving a second thought about it and didn’t even looked at Jiang Yang to understand, what he was trying to do.

Jiang Yang felt frustrated, but still maintained his calm expression. He thought, ‘What I was trying to do and what exactly happened. This brainless friend of mine is no fun’.

The doorbell rang. Jiang Yuyan got up and went to open the door. Just then Jiang Yang called Lu Qiang.

Jiang Yang: “Lu Qiang!”

“What?” Lu Qiang still didn’t look at Jiang Yang as he already knew what he would say.

Jiang Yang: “People always say, successful businessmen are the one with zero EQ. You proved it right man!”

This time Lu Qiang looked at Jiang Yang and said with determination “I can’t let her stay at Lu Mansion against her will”.

Before Jiang Yang could say anything, Jiang Yuyan came back with a food parcel in her hands. She looked at both of them and said, “Let’s have a breakfast”.

Both of them got up from the sofa and followed her to the dining table. They started to help her. Jiang Yang went to the kitchen to bring dishes, while Lu Qiang started to unwrap the food parcel with Jiang Yuyan. Only these two were there, so Jiang Yuyan started to feel uncomfortable. She said in a low voice while looking at the parcel, “I will do that.”

Lu Qiang looked at her.Then she again said, “Your hands will get dirty”.

Lu Qiang ignored her and started to unwrap the parcel. Jiang Yuyan didn’t say anything further. When Lu Qiang opened the parcel and passed one container to her, his sight passed her collar. As he was heighted, from above, he could see a red patch on the lower side of her neck which was hiding inside her top’s collar. He immediately averted his sight and moved few steps away from her side and stood at some distance.

Jiang Yuyan didn’t fail to notice, how and suddenly, he moved away from her although she was not looking at him. Her heart sank. She knew why he was getting away from her. He must be still feeling guilty about last night. She herself decided to stay away from him but when he was doing that, she felt heartbroken.

Just then Jiang Yang came back from the kitchen with dishes and bowls in his hands. He observed these two carefully. Both were not looking at each other and were busy in unwrapping the containers. Lu Qiang had no expressions on his face while Jiang Yuyan looked quite sad. Jiang Yang sighed and mumbled to himself, “Both are fools”.

Jiang Yang knew both liked each other. Lu Qiang already confessed it to him that he loved her. About his sister, he knew her better than herself. It was not difficult for him to understand, what his sister felt about Lu Qiang but he was also sure, she would never admit it.

All three of them sat on the chair. Jiang Yuyan sat beside her brother and Lu Qiang sat opposite to them. There was a silence in the dining room. Even the chatterbox Jiang Yang didn’t know what to say. They only talked when someone needed to pass something. Lu Qiang was the most silent person on the table. He didn’t even lift his face up, not even once. Jiang Yuyan also noticed it, as she peeked at him in between.

Lu Qiang didn’t eat much. He finished his breakfast soon and got up from his seat to wash his hands. He then came back and said while looking at Jiang Yang, “I’ll take my leave now. I have important work to do in the office”.

Jiang Yang: “Don’t you think it’s quite early”.

Lu Qiang: “Hmm! I need to prepare for today’s important meeting”.

Jiang Yang knew it was not true, but still, he didn’t stop Lu Qiang and said, “Ok! See you again”.

Lu Qiang nodded then looked at both siblings and said, “Bye!”.

He moved in the direction of apartment’s door. He put on his shoes and left without looking back.

When he left, Jiang Yuyan felt choked in her throat. She knew he was trying to avoid to look at her and talk to her. He was maintaining a distance with her. Even if it was her plan initially and she didn’t do anything to stay away from him as he was doing it for her. Even if everything was happening just as she wanted, but still, she felt like to cry.

She couldn’t understand why was she feeling bad? Was she feeling bad about to make him feel guilty and in response, he was behaving like this or was she just feeling bad because he was avoiding her?
