Chapter 962 I'll Be with you

Both cuddling each other, each moment seems like torture. They both tried to sleep but couldn't as their bodies couldn't be calm.

Ming Rusheng tried to fight with every thought coming into his mind while Lu Lian felt like her body was heating up, and her throat went dry.

She moved a bit away from him not to feel that way and wished she could get rid of this closeness.

"What happened?" he asked.

She moved her head up to look at him and gulped. Though he looked at her normally, she felt like his sight pierced her heart.

"I need water," she licked her lips and gulped, "My throat felt dry."

Ming Rusheng didn't react as he continued observing her for a while.

'Don't look at me like this,' she said in her head, 'Why I'm feeling in heat that his sight is enough to make me so hot.'

She lowered her sight and was about to lower her face too, but Ming Rusheng held her chin and made her look at him. Before she could understand, his lips met with hers.

Lu Lian was startled for a while, but she reciprocated the kiss as if her body already craved for it.

While their hot breaths got mingled up, Ming Rusheng sucked and nibbled her lips gently while taking turns over both lips. His one hand was busy below her head like a pillow while the other caressed her cheeks and jaw gently.

Lu Lian was no less than him. She sucked and nibbled his lips as too as she closed her eyes and her hands caressing and feeling his firm chest.

Ming Rusheng wished to taste her completely and slid his tongue in his cavern. It didn't surprise Lu Lian as she welcomed him and offered him her tongue.

Soon the gentle kiss turned into a passionate one. The sound of his heavy breathing and her soft moaning from her throat got buried in the loud sound from the rain, wind, and lightning.

Kissing for a long as the threads of saliva keep forming and breaking with the movement of their tongues dancing in sync, both parted away while panting heavily as they looked at each other like it was not enough.

"Your throat, still dry?" he asked, panting heavily and wiping the saliva from her lips.

She nodded, saying yes; the underlying meaning was clear that she wanted to keep kissing him.

Ming Rusheng smirked as if he got what he wished to hear from her, but before he could act, Lu Lian kissed him back as she whispered against his lips, "I'm thirsty."

His hand that was busy caressing Lu Lian's cheeks moved to the back of her lower waist, and he pulled her over him as she lay on top of him.

Lu Lian kissed him, and he welcomed her as his one hand moved in her hair and back of her head while the other one moved along her curvy back.

While Kissing passionately, Ming Rusheng couldn't realize when he slipped his hand under her T-shirt but realized it the moment when he touched the hooks of undergarment on her back.

His fingers willing to undo them, but his mind wished to decide otherwise. He retreated his hand from under her clothes as he wanted to break the kiss, which seemed impossible at the moment.

When they parted away, panting heavily, Ming Rusheng tucked Lu Lian's hair on the back of her ears and spoke in a low and hoarse voice, "Let's stop here."

It was not an order but his suggestion as he wished to know what she wanted.

Lu Lian nodded, knowing he was right, and unwillingly both resumed their places on the couch, but this time both slept straight as they looked at the ceiling.

Their hearts were still beating faster, and breaths were not normal; they tried to calm themselves down.

"Good night," he said.

"Good night," she replied.

At the same time, late in the night, Lu Lijun returned home. As usual, Jiang Yuyan's room lights were turned off when he saw from the outside.

During these days, Lu Lijun was familiar with the time when Jiang Yuyan was in a deep sleep and when she would wake up at any moment.

He looked at his wristwatch and mumbled, 'She must be in dreamland now.'

The butler was, as usual, awake when Lu Lijun returned. He bowed to Lu Lijun, and Lu Lijun nodded a little as he straight went to the second floor.

This time Lu Lijun didn't waste time by asking the butler about anything. He had something important to do before the time ends up.

Lu Lijun went to the second floor and straightway went to Jiang Yuyan's room. It turned into his daily habit as if he would miss out on something important in a day if he wouldn't see her.

Without knocking on the door, he entered the room, and as expected by him, she was in a deep sleep.

The entire day he couldn't see her, nor could he ask how she was. Seeing her like this every night without her knowing it was enough for Lu Lijun.

With slow steps, he went towards the bed in the room where the concerned lady slept without any care in the world.

Standing near the bed with his hands tucked in his pants pocket, the sleeves of his white shirt folded up till elbow, he stared at her.

She looked calm, opposite to her cold side whenever she was awake. How can she be so calm when she is sleeping, he thought and stepped closer to bed as he sat on the edge.

It was also the time in the night when Jiang Yuyan got nightmares once in a while when she would keep mumbling Lu Qiang's name.

Staring at her face, he noticed the frown lines appearing on Jiang Yuyan's forehead. Not waiting for a moment, Lu Lijun held her hand, and he was ready to hear her mumbling.

"Don't go..please...." she continued mumbling as she held Lu Lijun's hands tightly, which was caressing hers.

Lu Lijun knew who was she was asking and to go away from her, and he too felt the same as he never wished his elder brother to leave him.

Whatever he thought about her or heated her, one thing was common between the two, and that was the pain of losing someone dear to them.

This time even after holding her hand and patting her head, Jiang Yuyan wouldn't stop mumbling.

Tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes as she kept mumbling.

"Please..don't leave me..."

Lu Lijun couldn't see her like this. Leaning down a bit, he spoke in a low voice, "I won't...I am here, just beside you."

He didn't say those words for the sake of it, but he meant it.

It seems like it worked, and she started to be calm, but she didn't let go of Lu Lijun's hand.

Lu Lijun leaned further and pecked on her forehead, "I'll be with you," he mumbled.

Jiang Yuyan turned calm and looked at peace as if she heard what she wished.

Lu Lijun let go of her hand and adjust her quilt as his sight never left her face. He returned to his room, feeling relaxed as if all the tiredness he felt disappeared suddenly.

------------

At the same time, the workshop...

Ming Rusheng looked tensed, "Lu Lian..."

"Don't call my name," Lu Lian shouted, her face red with burning anger.

"I'm sorry," Ming Rusheng spoke as he looked guilty.

"How can you do this to my brother? I never expected you to do these cheap things," Lu Lian countered. "What you did with my brother was fine but Yuyan. How can you do this with her? do you know what she had gone through at that time and you abducted her.

"I know, I did a mistake," said Ming Rusheng.

"It's sin and I won't forgive you for what he did. Never come in front of me and show me this disgusting face of yours," saying Lu Lian left while Ming Rusheng could only look at her retreating back.

"I'm sorry. Don't go please," Tears rolled down his eyes.

Just then Ming Rusheng came out of sleep and realized it was a dream. He felt something moist at the corner of his eyes and realized he cried because of the nightmare. this never happened with him before as there was nothing to lose.

He looked at Lu Lian who slept soundly and go the reason for his nightmare. He was scared, scared that she will hate him one day. He would be fine seeing her around and talking normally but he was not ready to see hate for him in her eyes.

It was dawn till now, and Ming Rusheng stepped out of the blanket.

--------

Lu Lian woke up when the entire room was brightened up with the sunlight. She looked beside her but the place was empty. Sitting into the sofa, she looked here and there and just then the caretaker entered the room.

Where is Mr. Ming, Lu Lian asked.

"he left early morning,"
