Jiang Yuyan smiled to see Lu Qiang who was sitting beside her on the edge of the bed and wished him good morning. "How are you feeling now? Are you still tired?" Lu Qiang asked while looking at her beautiful smiling face.
Jiang Yuyan blushed to hear it. "I am fine," as saying it, she averted her sight from his face.
Lu Qiang held her chin, made her look at him and said, "I underestimated you then. I should have gone for more."
"Cough-Cough!" His words reminded her what they did last night and she was utterly embarrassed to remember it. She never thought that she could ever be like this, in love with a man and doing all those intimate stuff with him. Moreover, she really wanted it from her heart and that's what she found surprising about herself.
"What's the time?" she asked as she came out of her thoughts, trying to distract him from the conversation.
Lu Qiang smiled to see her blushing and feeling embarrassed but he didn't tease her more and replied, "It's late a bit but you can still make it to the university in time."
Jiang Yuyan looked at the square shaped, tiny, white table clock to check the time. Seeing a time, she got out of bed in a hurry to go towards the bathroom.

"If you will help me then I won't be able to go to the university at least for today," she said and entered inside.
Once she came out of the bathroom and got ready, Lu Qiang called her. "Come here. I want to show you something." He said and passed her his tablet once she sat beside him. She was shocked to see the multiple pictures of her with Lu Qiang from last night's wedding ceremony.
News about Lu Qiang and her was spreading everywhere and it was viral online. Every news channel was broadcasting the same news. "Today, in university you might have to face some trouble, so I will suggest you stay home for a day."
"But I have important classes and if I don't go today, will it all be solved till tomorrow?" she asked as not wanting to miss her classes.
"Hmm! You are right. I just asked in case if you want to stay away from it," he said.
"I want to but I don't want this to affect our normal life so I will continue what I do," She replied.
Lu Qiang dialed one number and instructed, "We are leaving in some time. Be prepared."
"What was that?" She asked.
"Few arrangements before we go there," he replied and took her downstairs for breakfast.
After breakfast, Lu Qiang took her to the university. When they reached there, Ming siblings were already present at the gate talking to each other.
Ming Lan felt sad to see Lu Qiang and Jiang Yuyan together but she was somewhere happy for Jiang Yuyan too as she knew there was no chance for her. If it was not Jiang Yuyan then there would be another girl but herself so in her opinion, Jiang Yuyan was a good choice for Lu Qiang. Moreover, she felt it was just her crush and her feelings for him were not that deep but still somewhere deep down in her heart she was sad.
Jiang Yuyan went to Ming Lan and Ming Rusheng was there too. For Jiang Yuyan he was just her maternal cousin but she was unaware of his feelings for her. Lu Qiang too walked with her to Ming siblings.
Lu Qiang looked around but there was nothing that he was worried about. His sight followed few men in suits, standing at a distance from the university gate. He recognized them as those were the bodyguards, he arranged to protect Jiang Yuyan as she was in the news now and she might be surrounded by journalists and other people.
Ming Rusheng greeted her with a smile and gave a fake smile to Lu Qiang. Lu Qiang didn't react and had a cold expression on his face. It was a time for the girls to go inside just then Ming Rusheng called his sister. "Ming Lan!"
Ming Lan halted and asked to look at him, "Yes, brother!"

"I will brother," Ming Lan said and both girls went inside. Lu Qiang didn't say anything as giving Ming Rusheng a pass as Jiang Yuyan's maternal cousin.
Once both girls went inside the gate, Ming Rusheng and Lu Qiang had left alone. When Jiang Yuyan disappeared from his sight, Lu Qiang was moved towards his car avoiding Ming Rusheng but Ming Rusheng called him, "Lu Qiang!"
Lu Qiang turned to look at him but didn't say a word. His gaze was enough to convey his words.
"Man! Don't look at me like this. I just want to ask you something," said Ming Rusheng being a bit annoyed with Lu Qiang's cold gaze which showed he was not interested in talking to him.
Lu Qiang sighed and asked, "What?"
"Do you know what exactly happened in the past and what your family did to my family that my father and grandfather hate you people, this much?"
"I don't know." Without giving a thought for a single moment on Ming Rusheng's question, Lu Qiang replied as he had only one answer to all the questions.
Upon getting an obvious reply from Lu Qiang, Ming Rusheng smiled with one corner of his lips up and said again, "It can not be possible that the king of Lus doesn't know anything related to his family."
"Why are you being a dog in your family then? Be a king and get to know everything." Lu Qiang spoke immediately as he felt annoyed, not having a will to answer his question which could hurt so many people.
