On the third night since Lu Jingzhi’s sudden departure, Jiang Yuning was in an extremely desperate and insomniac state. She did not know how she could have survived without Lu Jingzhi in the past. How had she managed to endure it?
Even though she tried and tried to fall asleep, Jiang Yuning still suffered from insomnia and so she finally decided to continue reading her script for the upcoming drama instead. As Jiang Yuning sat up in bed to read her script, she suddenly heard sounds coming from downstairs.
However, Jiang Yuning was not worried. She knew that it could not be robbers trying to break into the villa because the security around the villa was extremely tight.
Therefore, Jiang Yuning quickly got up from the bed because she could only think of one possibility…someone was back!
She quickly ran downstairs and as soon as she saw Lu Jingzhi entering through the front door, she immediately jumped onto Lu Jingzhi and hugged him as she clung tightly onto him. “Second brother, you are finally back!”
At this moment, Lu Jingzhi was still wearing his uniform and he embraced Jiang Yuning tightly in his arms even though he did not even have the chance to even look at Jiang Yuning’s face.
“Why are you not asleep yet?”
This was because Lu Jingzhi saw that it was already half past two in the morning when he walked through the front door.
“I could not sleep because I missed you too much,” Jiang Yuning replied instantly, as though she had suffered an injustice. Then, she suddenly pinched Lu Jingzhi’s face as though she had just thought of something. “I am not dreaming now, am I?”
Lu Jingzhi pushed her against the wall and started kissing her lips ferociously.
“Pain…” Jiang Yuning shouted because he was using too much force.
Lu Jingzhi rubbed the tip of his nose gently against Jiang Yuning’s nose and asked, “Do you still think that you are dreaming now?”
“No,” Jiang Yuning replied as she smiled at Lu Jingzhi.
“Second brother, I missed you. I really missed you so much.”
When they finally returned to the bedroom, the both of them were already soaked in sweat.
Lu Jingzhi was carrying Jiang Yuning in his arms and he kept kissing her forehead and stroking her face gently. “I missed you too. My heart was aching because I missed you so much.”
Though Jiang Yuning was already falling asleep, she kept forcing herself to stay awake as she wanted to look at Lu Jingzhi for a longer time.
“Sleep.” Lu Jingzhi patted her back gently to coax her into sleeping.
“I do not want to sleep now because you would have already left the villa when I wake up tomorrow,” Jiang Yuning replied as she hugged Lu Jingzhi tightly.
“Willful.”
“I am willful.”
Lu Jingzhi had no choice but to give in to her whims and therefore, they had another round of sexual intercourse before Jiang Yuning was finally too exhausted and could no longer move. At this moment, the sun was already rising.
Lu Jingzhi brought Jiang Yuning into the bathroom to wash up before he hugged her to sleep. When he saw the mess that the both of them had made earlier, he suddenly remembered how wild and crazy they were last night.
They had not even been apart from one another for three days yet. If he had followed his initial plan, he would have only arrived back at the villa at noon the next day. However, after finishing his work and reporting the matter to the defence department, Lu Jingzhi had decided to return to the villa immediately.
This was because he had already predicted that Jiang Yuning would be waiting for him to come home. However, he did not expect that Jiang Yuning would have missed him so much.
…
Jiang Yuning only slept two hours before she woke up early the next morning after receiving a phone call from the Lu family lawyer.
She was going to the police station together with the lawyer to make the police report today.
Jiang Yuning was struggling as she tried to step out of bed when she saw Lu Jingzhi coming out of the walk in closet, smartly dressed in a white shirt. He was holding onto a coat in his right hand.
“Second brother…I am so exhausted. How am I going to go to the police station when I look like this?”
Lu Jingzhi walked towards Jiang Yuning and quickly carried her up in his arms as he brought her into the bathroom. “I thought that you were just about to ask me to help you confirm if this is just a dream. Do you want me to?”
“Cough! No need.” She could feel her legs still wobbly from last night and this was more surreal than anything else. “We have serious business to get on with today. Let’s talk about everything else later tonight.”
Lu Jingzhi held her face up and kissed her gently on the lips. “Go and take a shower first. Come downstairs when you are done getting ready. Sister Liang has already prepared breakfast for you.”
“Alright, I understand,” Jiang Yuning quickly replied. “Do not worry, second brother. I will be very obedient and I will do everything that you want me to in future.”
“You will be obedient?” Lu Jingzhi repeated those words but he did not say anything else because he knew that it would never happen.
After letting go of Jiang Yuning, Lu Jingzhi walked towards the balcony and saw that Lawyer Zou and Ku Jie had already arrived and they were already waiting for them.
“You are back?” Ku Jie asked as soon as he saw Lu Jingzhi. “I thought that you were going to be gone for three days.”
“I decided to come back earlier. Is there a problem?”
“Can you please bring my sister along with you the next time you have to go on another business trip? That would save me a lot of hassle because she would not be able to whine so much and annoy me everyday,” Ku Jie replied immediately. He did not know why he had to be the victim when Jiang Yuning and Lu Jingzhi were dating.
Lu Jingzhi ignored Ku Jie and he merely turned around and looked at Lawyer Zou before asking, “Do we have enough evidence on hand to start a lawsuit against Fu Yahui?”
“Second young master, you can be rest assured. I know that the matter involving the Jiang family was complicated and difficult to resolve in the past. For the past few years, you have been gathering a lot of evidence that seem to be very helpful to the case. There is no way that Fu Yahui would be able to get out of this unharmed. Furthermore, some of my colleagues have informed me that for the past few days, the lawyers hired by Fu Yahui have been busy trying to destroy some evidence that could incriminate her. We have been following up on that information and if we are able to gather sufficient evidence, we would also be able to sue her for trying to destroy important evidence of her crime.”
Ku Jie was once again in disbelief upon hearing what the lawyer had just said.
This man was hopeless. He was so infatuated with the matters involving the Jiang family that it was actually ridiculous.
In the past five years, he had been secretly gathering evidence for the Jiang family. Wasn’t he afraid that everything that he did would be all for nothing? Would he not have been afraid that his love for Jiang Yuning would be unrequited?
After a short while, Jiang Yuning was finally ready. She quickly walked to the balcony and said to the three men who were waiting, “I am ready. We can leave now.”
“Let’s go.” Ku Jie and Lawyer Zou stood up immediately but Lu Jingzhi continued sitting down as he waved his hand at Jiang Yuning.
“Come over here.”
“Leave them alone. Let’s go first,” Ku Jie said impatiently to Lawyer Zou.
Jiang Yuning walked over to Lu Jingzhi without any hesitation before she asked, “Is there anything else that you need to tell me?”
“Five years ago, Fu Yahui could abandon her own daughter and family to elope with another man after taking all of the Jiang family’s money. This woman is capable of doing anything just to save herself. Therefore, after we file the lawsuit against Fu Yahui, you are not allowed to meet her in private. If there is anything that you need to do or if anything crops up, you have to report it to me immediately before we decide on our next course of action. Do you understand what I am saying?”
“Yes, I understand,” Jiang Yuning replied as she bent her body to kiss Lu Jingzhi on his lips. “Wait for me to come home.”
Lu Jingzhi stared at Jiang Yuning’s back as she left the villa before he left the villa to attend a home defence meeting at his office.
He had always had only one stand about the matter involving Fu Yahui and the Jiang family.
He would support anything and any decision that Jiang Yuning decided on, because whatever that was going to happen to Fu Yahui was none of his concern. All he wanted was for Jiang Yuning to be happy.
