Chapter 211 Cute Iceberg...
Letting her get calm in his embrace, Lu Qiang looked at Jiang Yuyan’s face. She had a painful expression on her face with tears rolling down from her eyes. Lu Qiang covered both of them in towels and took her to the bed by carrying in his arms. He put her on the bed slowly and sat beside her. Looking at her with guilty expressions, he wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and caressed her cheek with his thumb.
All the way from the bathroom to the bed, Jiang Yuyan had her eyes closed and her thighs closed tightly together because of the pain. When Lu Qiang wiped her tears, she opened her eyes to look at him. She heard him saying ’I am sorry’ in a bathroom, but at that moment she was in pain to say anything to him. She felt bad to see his face full of the guilt of hurting her.
Jiang Yuyan held his hand which was caressing her cheek and said, "You don’t have to feel bad or apologize to me. Instead, I should apologize for not being able to bear it and spoiled everything. Isn’t it normal to feel pain but I failed it. I am...."
"Shhhhh! No more words. I should have been patient to make you comfortable at first, but I was being impatient and hurt you." He said it before she could apologize to him for the reason which was not right in Lu Qiang’s opinion. He realized, it was more of his fault as he should have done it when she was in a comfortable position and that too in a bed, but he lost his senses and tried to do it, the way it took him to.
Feeling worried about her being hurt and in pain, he said, "Let me check if you are hurt then I will ask the doctor to give some ointment for you."
Jiang Yuyan smiled to hear it and said, "There is no need. It’s fine."
"But...."
"Trust me I am fine, Lu Qiang," she said to assure him once again.
"Okay!" Taking her words as an assurance, he got up from the bed and went to the wardrobe to bring clothes for both of them. As it was not their home, Lu Qiang didn’t have any clothes of Jiang Yuyan. He pulled out one of his white shirt for her to wear while he took out pair of pajamas for him.
After wearing his clothes, Lu Qiang helped Jiang Yuyan to wear his shirt and dried her wet hair. Upon seeing her in his shirt, he couldn’t help but stare at her to see how alluring she was looking in it. He averted his sight and said, "Like this, it’s going to be hard for me. He ran his fingers through his hair and exhaled out deeply through his mouth.
Jiang Yuyan blushed as she understood what he meant. She pulled up a quilt over her bare legs up to her chest and lied down in a bed, covering herself to hide it from Lu Qiang’s sight. She knew, Lu Qiang won’t touch her because of fear of hurting her again and he would have no other option than controlling himself.
Lu Qiang too lied down beside her and turned to his one side to face her. Jiang Yuyan turned her head to look back at him and said, "Others must be searching for us in the party hall. When they will ask what should we answer them?"
"The others you are talking about, are my family and they might have understood till now that we are together somewhere," he replied casually as he was not worried about others.
"Won’t it be a bit embarrassing?" she asked.
"For me, it’s not. I am with the woman I love and it’s the best thing in my life, not the thing to feel embarrassed about."
"Hmm! I too won’t feel embarrassed from now on because I too am with the man I love."
Her reply made him smile ear to ear while showing his cute canines. Those were the sweetest and adorable words he could hear from her. Upon seeing him smiling like this, she said, "You know, it is the rarest thing to see you smile like this and I love to see it. I want to say ’how cute!’ but it’s awkward to say it to the iceberg like you."
"Iceberg? Huh?" he said with his one eyebrow raised in a question.
"Yes! Iceberg," she replied while straight staring into his eyes.
"Do you want to see this iceberg melting? he asked teasingly.
Jiang Yuyan shook her head and said while securing the quilt over her chest tightly, "Nope! Not right now!"
Lu Qiang smiled and went closer to her to take her in his embrace and said, "I love you, Yuyan."
Jiang Yuyan smiled to hear it and replied, "I love you too, Lu Qiang."
In the party hall...
Party was about to get over. Upon not seeing Jiang Yuyan around, Elder Lu asked, "Where is Jiang Yuyan?" Jiang Yang and Lu Feng looked at each other to think about what to answer. They were not worried about elder Lu asking the question but they were worried about Su Hui.
Before they could answer, Su Hui said, "Zhi Ruo and Lu Qiang is not here too. I think they must be together somewhere." Hearing it, expressions on everyone’s faces changed as they knew it was not possible. Also, Jiang Yuyan and Lu Qiang both were not there, so it was obvious for them to understand what was the fact but nobody said anything.
Just at the right moment, something happened in the party hall and everyone looked in the direction of the door. The handsome man and a Zhi Ruo entered inside the hall. Everyone started to talk to each other as they recognized the person but nobody dared to go to him. The handsome man walked further inside the hall, just then Wang Zhilan and Wang Chao went to greet him.
"We are glad to see you here and you finally found the time to come here." Said Wang Chao with a wide smile on his face.
"It was my pleasure to come here as I found what I was searching for." He replied with a cold voice and no expression on his face. Zhi Ruo was standing beside him, one step back with her head lowered down.
Su Hui was shocked to see, Zhi Ruo with the man as he was not any common person to be with. Others were shocked too and looked at Zhi Ruo and a man with surprise. After greeting Wangs the man looked at Lu Jinhai and said, "Nice to meet you here again Chairman Lu Jinhai." Lu Jinhai too answered his greeting with a smile and a handshake.
Su Hui was still not out of her shock and stepped towards Zhi Ruo. Before she could ask Zhi Ruo anything, the man said in his cold voice, "Zhi Ruo, You don’t have to answer anything to anyone here." Zhi Ruo nodded lightly with her head down.
Upon hearing these words, Su Hui swallowed her words and she didn’t dare to ask anything to Zhi Ruo. After meeting a couple of the day, the man left the hall with Zhi Ruo following him while other guests were still looking at the man.historical
