Hearing Jiang Yuyan, Lu Lijun tightened his grip around her as if he didn't want to let her go and if he did, she would disappear.

Just then the door of the room opened and Lu Feng entered inside. He looked panicked.

Lu Feng could not sleep, so he thought to go to the garden, but when he reached the staircase, he heard the sound from Lu Lijun's room and ran towards it just to see Lu Lijun was holding Jiang Yuyan tightly.

Lu Feng understood there must be a problem as Lu Lijun never acted like this and stood there quietly.

Jiang Yuyan saw Lu Feng standing at the door. As their sights met, Lu Feng signaled to ask if everything was fine and she nodded a little to assure him.

Understanding the reason behind Lu Lijun's action, Jiang Yuyan spoke, "I am not going anywhere, Lu Lijun. I would always be with you."

Her words were what he wanted to hear. As Jiang Yuyan said it, Lu Lijun let her go and lifted his face up to look at her as if asking if she was telling the truth. His sight still showed the doubt.

Looking into his doubtful eyes with her gentle-looking ones, Jiang Yuyan offered him a light smile, her hands cupping his face in her hands and the next moment Lu Lijun heard a gentle and sweet assuring voice.

"I will always be with you, Lu Lijun. Trust me."

Still, it was not enough for him and he continued looking at her with his doubtful sight.

Maintaining the same pleasant smile, to comfort him and to show him that she was not lying, Jiang Yuyan held his hand. Entangling her pinky finger with his, she said calmly, looking into his eyes.

"I will always be with you and I will never ever leave you alone. I will always be here to take care of you and to look after what you need and that's a promise, a pinky promise."

Finally, there was a change in his doubtful expressions and Jiang Yuyan gave out a sigh of relief.

Lu Feng went to them and patting Lu Lijun's head, he said, "Don't worry Lu Lijun, she would be here with you always, as we will never let her go."

Lu Lijun looked at Lu Feng and Lu Feng nodded lightly, saying he was telling the truth. It was the first time Lu Lijun looked at someone else other than Jiang Yuyan and he was showing the signs of improvement.

As finally, Lu Lijun was calm, Jiang Yuyan instructed, "Let's go to sleep now."

Saying, Jiang Yuyan took Lu Lijun to the bed by holding his hand and he followed her quietly. Lu Feng picked the quilt from the floor, which dropped when Lu Lijun got out of the bed in a haste.

When Lu Lijun lay down in the bed, he didn't let go of Jiang Yuyan's hand and instead made a space beside himself by shifting to one side of that king-size bed as if asking her to sleep there.

It surprised both Jiang Yuyan and Lu Feng.

When Jiang Yuyan fell asleep in Lu Lijun's room before, Lu Lijun went to sleep in Lu Feng's room even though he had a king-size bed that could accommodate two people comfortably and both could sleep without disturbing each other's sleep. Lu Lijun even had a comfortable couch in his room to sleep on, but he preferred to go to another room.

As Lu Lijun didn't like to get closer to anyone other than his two brothers, they thought it was his normal reaction but now as he was asking Jiang Yuyan to be with him, that means he was terrified to let her go away. Not to forget his panicked reaction a while ago.

Jiang Yuyan looked at Lu Feng as if asking what to do, and Lu Feng signaled her to go ahead as there was no other option. Moreover, Lu Lijun was just one scared kid, so there was no problem with it.

Jiang Yuyan lay down beside him at the other side of the bed and Lu Feng covered Lu Lijun with a quilt in his hands and went to the couch to get another quilt for Jiang Yuyan which she used before and covered her too.

Saying good night, Lu Feng left and Jiang Yuyan asked Lu Lijun to close his eyes and she was not going anywhere. Lu Lijun fell asleep soon, still holding Jiang Yuyan's hand while Jiang Yuyan continued staring at the ceiling.

The next morning, Lu Lijun and Jiang Yuyan had breakfast in their room and other family members had it in the dining room. Though Jiang Yuyan was back home, no one could talk to her as she was busy taking care of Lu Lijun since she was back. Also, no one could gather the courage to go to her and she never came downstairs.

They all could understand what kind of pain she was going through and knowing she tried to kill herself, they preferred to leave her alone as instructed by Lu Feng. Lu Lijun was the way to keep her busy and divert her attention.

They were worried about Lu Lijun too but left him in the care of Jiang Yuyan as she was the one one who could handle him the way Lu Qiang did in the past. It relieved them at least they both could be each other's saviors.

Ning Jiahui spent her time mostly in the hospital as Lu Jinhai was there, so she already left Lu Lijun into Jiang Yuyan's care. She knew she was being selfish to do so as Jiang Yuyan herself was hurt. Ning Jiahui could think nothing about but her son's unfortunate death and her husband's wellbeing.

Qin Xiu, Daughter-in-law of Sui Hui and Lu Han's wife, was out of the country when all this happened. Her father, one of the famous businessmen, was dealing with life and death after going through critical surgery. She had to stay there with him. As he was better, she finally got to come back to China after the ten days of the incident. Just like others, she was hurt too, knowing what happened with Lu Qiang.
