Chapter 45 Cough**Cough! Did You Smoke???

She didn’t say anything, just closed her eyes, lowered her head and stood there with the support of the railing. Her ears were buzzing with the sound of her own heartbeats. After few moments of silence, she gave a deep sigh and said, "Pervert!" and looked at him with an angry gaze.

Lu Qiang : "Yes! But just for you." And he smiled.

Jiang YuYan : "You...!" She felt very exhausted to say anything further. She just moved her gaze from him to other direction and subconsciously licked her own lips as they were swollen and had a slight burning sensation.

Lu Qiang : "Feeling my taste on your lips? If you want to taste it again, lick my lips instead of yours."

She frowned, stopped licking her lips and rubbed them with her palm to clean it.

Lu Qiang : "Be careful you will hurt them."

Jisng YuYan : "Not as much as you did." She said in an angry tone.

Lu Qiang : "Sorry for that but I am sure you liked it too."

Jiang YuYan : "What? N..No way! It was...it was...." She was so confused and was already blank because of the kiss so she couldn’t find the words to say. Actually she knew that she liked it but didn’t want to admit it. When he said this, she was like a thief who got caught red handed.

Lu Qiang : "Don’t worry I understood everything clearly when you were clutching my jacket and when you..."

Jiang YuYan : "Cough**Cough! I...I need to go now." She knew what he was going to say further but didn’t want to listen it so she stopped him in between. He was just smiling all the time looking at her red face. He too didn’t continue when she stopped him.

Lu Qiang : "Sure! By the way, I think you need to reapply the lipgloss as I licked it completely. It was tasty but.... not more than you." He said the last line in a flirty way.

She couldn’t find the words to beat his shamelessness and couldn’t help but to frown. She then straightened herself up and started to walk out of that shade.

"Washroom is on the right side of the hall just follow that corridor." And pointed in the direction of the corridor far away to their left side.

She heard it but didn’t turn to look at him and dashed into that direction. She was walking as fast as she could without looking back at him. Lu Qiang was watching her retreating back and had an ear to ear smile on his face which was very rare to see. His cute canines made itlook very attractive. If there was any standard measurement to calculate the best smile, then he would have got 11/10. He was standing there with his hands tucked in his pant’s pockets. As she reached half way, he too walked behind her but moved in the direction of hall’s door through which he came out before. It was opposite to where Jiang YuYan went.

Jiang YuYan reached to the corridor. She stopped and looked back in the direction of the shade but couldn’t see Lu Qiang. She continued to walk while looking back in the direction of shade, searching for him without realising she was going to bump into someone. Just after few steps, she bumped into a man. Her head got hit hard to his chin and she was about to loose balance but pair of two strong hands held her before she could fall down.

She closed her eyes in an anticipation to feel the pain by falling down on the floor but to her surprise her upper body was in the air with her feet touching to the ground. She felt one hand around her waist and other below her shoulders, slightly away from her neck. She opened her eyes and saw the pair of grey eyes staring at her face. She too stared back at him with her shocked eyes. She started to sniff as she smelled something while he was still holding her in his arms. She started to cough.

Jiang YuYan : "Cough**Cough! Did You smoke? Cough**Cough! L..Let me go. Cough**cough!"

He helped her to stand up and she immediately got away from him rubbing her head where his chin hit it. She didn’t say sorry or thank you. She was still coughing and entered inside the woman’s washroom without looking back even once.

In the evening, Lu Feng came to the venue with whole family but alone in his own car. Everyone went to the party hall and was busy in attending the guests but Lu Feng picked one wine glass from the drink’s tray and got out of there. He headed in the direction of the lawn and went far away from the hall. He sat on the wooden bench which was long enough to accommodate two to three people. He sat there, silently sipping the wine from the glass. Time passed by just like that and he finished the wine in the glass slowly enjoying the every sip of it. He put that glass on one side at the bench then took out the cigarette pack and a lighter from the inner pocket of his jacket.

As he was just about to pull out one cigarette from the pack, he heard the voice.

"Brother Lu Feng! Why are you here? I was searching for you in the hall." That was Lu LiJun, standing few steps away from him with his cousin Wang Peng.

When he saw Lu LiJun, He put the cigarette pack and lighter back in his jacket’s pocket and said, "It was suffocating there."

"But Brother Lu Qiang is also not there and you too are here. I am getting bored." Lu LiJun said it with sad expressions.

Lu Feng looked at Wang Peng with questioning look to which Wang Peng replied, "Lu Qiang hasn’t arrived yet."

Lu Feng then signaled Lu LiJun to sit beside him. Three of them sat there and started to chat. Lu LiJun was telling them about his new gaming beast and both were listening to it carefully and patiently. Wang Peng too was telling them about some interesting and funny stories to which Lu LiJun was laughing and Lu Feng was having just a light smile on his face. As they were chatting, they could hear the sounds coming from the hall. The MC’s funny speech, cake cutting ceremony and then music.
