MY BROTHER IN-LAW TURN HUSBAND - SEASON 7 EPISODE 45

Song Meilin’s words didn’t affect Xi Cheng and he said as he smiled lightly, “Step-mother sure is very good with words. This is the first thing I will learn from you as it might come in handy shutting a few annoying mouths.”Before Song Meilin could get back at him, Xi Cheng moved his sights to Nixxxie, “Little sister!”

Nixxxie gave him a displeased look and Xi Cheng continued, “From annoying mouths, I suddenly remembered about Doctor Jiang Yang. How is he doing after his best friend’s death?”

“Well enough to kick a few rotten brains,” Nixxxie replied as she was annoyed with the way Xi Cheng talked.

“Seems like I offended the little sister but I will accept your angry words as I love my sister a lot.”

“You can keep your love for others, as I am happy with the love I get from doctor Jiang Yang.”

Nothing could upset Xi Cheng, but these words from Nixxxie did. His eyes turned cold with the way Nixxxie talked and Xi Cheng couldn’t help but frown inside.

Nixxxie just didn’t stop at this and called the servant, “Make sure to cook the lunch that includes favorite dishes of doctor Jiang Yang as I will take lunch for him today.”

“Okay, young mistress.” Nodding, the servant left.

The grip of Xi Cheng’s hand tightened on the chopsticks as he looked at Nixxxie with an angry gaze but before Xi Cheng could say anything, Xi Guiren spoke up, “We have an important meeting, Xi Cheng. I hope everything is ready.”

“Rest assured, father, preparing everything perfectly is my habit,” Xi Cheng commented with the hidden meaning into his words that others understood but couldn’t say anything.

At lunchtime, Nixxxie left to go to the hospital with lunch for Jiang Yang. Since she realized her stepbrother might have something to do with Lu Qiang’s death, she couldn’t be at peace and all the time she wished that it should not be the case.

Unknowingly, Nixxxie distanced herself from Jiang Yang, but all these days she missed him and wanted to check on him. Jiang Yang was too busy and worried about Lu Jinhai’s condition, so he didn’t pay much attention to it.

Nixxxie had already got to know about Jiang Yang’s schedule from the hospital and came there at the time when Jiang Yang was free and he could have lunch.

———

In Jiang Yang’s cabin…

Hearing the knock on the door, Jiang instructed, “Come in.”

Nixxxie entered holding one bag in her hand and Jiang Yang’s face brightened up seeing her. Getting up from the chair, he straightway went to her and hugged her. “Finally, I can breath.” Jiang Yang commented as he inhaled deeply. Her sweet scent calmed his stressed brain.

Nixxxie hugged him back with the one hand that was empty and had a smile on her face. All the questions and doubts going in her mind when she was on the way to the hospital, they all disappeared in a moment.

“I brought lunch for you,” Nixxxie informed as Jiang Yang finally let her go.

Cupping her face in his hands and looking into her eyes, he said, “Thank you for showing up finally.” His sight full of love and in showing how much he missed her.

When Jiang Yang said it, Nixxxie felt guilty. With no solid reason or the proof about her stepbrother’s involvement in Lu Qiang’s accident, she distanced herself from Jiang Yang so she tried to explain, “You were busy so I didn’t feel it right to disturb you.”

“You are not the disturbance but my energy booster. You should keep showing now and then,” Jiang Yang said as the smile painted on his lips, being unaware of what was going on her mind all this time.

“I will now let’s have lunch.” Both went to their small comfortable world and that was Jiang Yang’s resting room.

——

As instructed by elder Lu, all were ready with the bags to go back to the city. Before that, Jiang Yuyan thought to visit Lu Qiang’s grave as she didn’t know when she could come back here to meet him again.

When Jiang Yuyan was about to leave, Lu Lijun tagged along and she took him with her. When they reached Lu Qiang’s grave, Jiang Yuyan offered half of the flowers in her hand to Lu Lijun while half she carried. She kept the flower on the grave and signaled Lu Lijun to do the same.

Though Lu Lijun was silent, his eyes carried the emotions of feeling hurt to realize his brother was not with him and he can only see him like this. Sitting down, he touched Lu Qiang’s name carved on the tombstone. This was the first time tears rolled down his eyes after the day Jiang Yuyan made him cry.

“Elder brother,” the word left his mouth as he cried.

Jiang Yuyan too couldn’t stop her tears. Not disturbing Lu Lijun, Jiang Yuyan kneeled down and spoke, “Don’t miss me too much as I know you can’t be without me for a long time and always follow me wherever I go. This time I desperately want you to follow me or surprise me with your sudden appearance but I know you can’t”

Her throat felt choked, but she continued, “I.. I…can just wish those days to come back….I really miss those days and I miss you, Lu Qiang that I feel like I will die. Can’t you…can’t you show up at least once..just once?”

Though Jiang Yuyan didn’t want to cry and knew her calling him back didn’t make any sense and can’t change the fact that he was gone but she wanted to beg him. Just one wish she had if she could see him again at least once and tell him how much she loved him.

As she broke into a cry, Lu Lijun too didn’t disturb her and stood up silently, his eyes teary. They both could understand what the other needed and it was the best thing they shared.

Wiping her tears Jiang Yuyan continued, “I will be a bad Yuyan that you wouldn’t like to see me as but I hope you will forgive me. I am sorry that I have to go away from here but I will make sure to visit you once in a while.”

Once she was done and said bye to Lu Qiang, both left the place and went back to the home from where all the family members left for the city.
