At the same time..Morning..

Jiang residence..

Jiang Yuyan woke up and realized that she was sleeping in her bed, not on a couch in her art room. She understood how she came here as it was not the first time something like this happened. She knew her brother was always there to take care of her.

Jiang Yuyan went downstairs after getting ready, where Jiang Yang was waiting for her to have breakfast. Fortunately, a cook and the maid had returned from their holidays. They prepared breakfast for these siblings as instructed by their mother, Mo Ruolan.

When Jiang Yuyan came to the living room, Jiang Yang said, "Good morning!"

Jiang Yuyan nodded and said, "Good morning, brother!"

They both walked towards the dining table as the servant served breakfast for both of them.

After they started to have their breakfast, Jiang Yang asked while looking at his dish and picking up the vegetable with his chopstick, "So, had a good night's sleep?"

Jiang Yuyan smiled and said while looking at her brother, "Yup! Like never before."

"That's really great." Jiang Yang replied with a smile while looking back at her, but his eyes indicated that he had something else in his mind.

Jiang Yuyan nodded with a smile and continued to have her breakfast.

Jiang Yang sighed and said, "But I am afraid that someone must be having sleepless nights."

Jiang Yuyan lifted her head and looked at her brother to wonder what he meant. She asked, "What do you mean?"

Jiang Yang didn't look at her but replied while serving more vegetables onto Jiang Yuyan's dish, "Well, someone must be hurting for not knowing the pain his love had gone through. Or must have regretted not being by her side and letting her suffer alone. It must hurt to the extent that the person had to be drunk to forget the pain he felt."

Jiang Yuyan continued to stare at her brother to listen furthermore. She understood what he was talking about. The thought of Lu Qiang being hurt and he was drunk made her feel sad and uneasy.

She asked, "Lu Qiang?"

Jiang Yang replied, "Who else can that be?"

Jiang Yuyan remembered each and every word her brother said a moment before and asked with a displeased expression, "Was he drunk?"

Jiang Yang nodded and said, "I guess so."

Jiang Yuyan felt tense and asked, "Where is he? I need to see him."

Jiang Yang expected this reaction from her and said, "Calm down! He is with Lu Feng, he will take care of Lu Qiang"

Jiang Yuyan was feeling restless and said, "But still, I want to see him."

Jiang Yang agreed, "Okay! But not now. It's not the right time."

Jiang Yuyan always obeyed what her brother said. She knew anything her brother did or said; there was always a reason behind so she didn't say anything further. She could only wait to meet Lu Qiang again.

Jiang Yang then continued, "There is good news."

Jiang Yuyan looked at her brother with surprised expressions and asked, "What good news?"

Jiang Yang replied, "Our two friends finally reconciled."

Jiang Yuyan replied, "That's really good."

Jiang Yang then changed the topic and said, "By the way, I heard that you would stay in Lu Mansion."

Jiang Yuyan replied, "Yes! You and Grandpa Lu planned that overacting drama, so how could I have allowed your efforts to go waste."

Jiang Yang smiled mischievously and asked, "Was it our efforts or someone else's?"

Jiang Yuyan straightforwardly answered while looking into her dish to pick food in her chopsticks, "Someone else's."

She then put food in her mouth, started to chew, and tried to hide a smile and blush on her face.

Jiang Yang smiled and said, "My little sister is grown up now."

Jiang Yuyan didn't reply and continued to eat her food quietly while lowering down her head.

Both finished their breakfast and sat in the living room.

"Let's pack your stuff today, and I will take you to Lu Mansion tomorrow. I am home for two days," Jiang Yang offered.

Jiang Yuyan asked, "Tomorrow?"

"Yes! Next week you have to attend university so it would be great if you go to Lu Mansion at least a day before so that you can be comfortable there."

Jiang Yuyan's face became sad, "I am suddenly feeling unwilling to go as you will not be around there. The thought of me being away from you is making me feel uneasy."

Jiang Yang: "That's normal as you have a habit of me being around you all the time, but now it's time for you to come out of that shell. Also, Lu Qiang will be there."

"You are right, brother, but…"

"Don't worry! If not me, then Lu Qiang will always be there beside you all the time." He then smiled slyly, "You can trust Grandpa Lu."

Jiang Yuyan looked at him to ask what he meant, but before that, he got up and said, "C'mon, let's go to your room and pack your stuff."

Both went to her room and started to pack all the necessary stuff.

In Lu mansion

Lu Qiang ran upstairs to Lu Lijun's room. When he reached there, he saw his parents, grandparents, and other family members standing outside of the Lu Lijun room's door. Everyone had worried expressions on their faces.

Lu Qiang understood, Lu Lijun must have locked himself in a room. Lu Qiang went there and asked, "What exactly happened?"

As he asked this question, Elder Lu started to cough and to look around here and there. Lu Qiang understood this has something to do with his grandpa. He directly went to him and asked with serious expressions on his face, "What happened?"

Others were quiet as they knew; nobody can help in any way in this matter. They just stood there with worried expressions on their faces. When it came to Lu Lijun, nobody dared to say anything to Lu Qiang.

Elder Lu then looked at him and said, "I just answered his question, and he got angry."

Lu Qiang asked in a calm but firm voice, "What did you say?"

Elder Lu cleared his throat and replied, "Well, He was missing you badly and was sad. When I went to him, he asked where his elder brother had been since the last two days, and I just told the truth." Elder Lu then paused and behaved like he did nothing wrong.

Lu Qiang felt annoyed and asked in an irritated tone, "Grandpa! Will you tell me now what you said to make him like this? I am out of patience now."

Grandpa Lu replied casually, "I just answered him that your brother went out to bring a sister-in-law for you."

When Lu Qiang heard this, he had no words to say to his grandpa. He couldn't do anything but frown. Lu Feng came upstairs too, and he heard what Elder Lu said. He, too, couldn't help but pinch the space between his eyebrows in annoyance.
