Chapter 1322 Just Donāt Leave
Seeing him kneeled in front of her, Shocked Jiang Yuyan. āLu Lijunā¦ā
āI am sorry, Yuyan,ā he said with his head lowered in front of her, āI am sorry for everything.ā
It took her by surprise and didnāt know why he was like this suddenly. She remembered something that she asked her parents to get things further with the Choi family. āIs it because of it? Is it his way of stopping me now?ā¦.ā
She spoke coldly, āIf you think, I will change my mind and back off on my decision with Alex, then that wonāt happen.ā
āI take back everything that I had said to you till now,ā before she could say, even more, he spoke again, āI was wrong to treat you like that and force myself on you. Iā¦.ā he closed his eyes as the next thing was going to be hurtful for him to say, āIā¦will..never call you as my wifeā¦I will never force you to accept meā¦I will be only your late husbandās brother and nothing elseā¦ā
This was something that Jiang Yuyan never expected him to say. The guy who was adamant about making her his wife was finally ready to give up. āWhy? What made him change his mind? Did something happen?ā Even his backing down was worrisome for her.
āI will do whatever you ask me to. You want me to take my brotherās place in company, I will do that too. I will do everything that my brother had expected from me. I will fulfil all of his dreams about me. I will never go against your wishā¦ā
This change in him scared her now as if something serious had happened and he was saying all this. āL-Lu Lijunā¦.ā
He finally looked at her. āPlease donāt leave. Donāt leave because of me.ā
His teary eyes startled her and she could not say a word. She had seen him hurt before but this time it was different. He looked like he had lost everything and wished for nothing. She gulped not knowing what to say as it hurt to see him like this and felt her own chest tightening up.
āI will forget everything that I had in my mind all along and will only treat you as my elder brotherās wife. I will never say or do anything that will hurt you. We will leave like in the past, I promise!ā he said again.
Feeling worried for him, she asked, āWhat happened, Lu Lijun. Did somethingā¦..ā
āI realized how selfish I was and how much pain I have caused. My apology wonāt be enough but still, I am sorry. Just donāt leaveā¦pleaseā¦.Donāt marry him because I know you donāt want it and doing it just because of me. I donāt want you to make any wrong decision because of me or I will never forgive myself..ā his eyes were full of pleading and Jiang Yuyan didnāt know what to say.
āJust stay and see me fulfilling all of my elder brotherās dreams. He is not here but you are and I want you to stay and see. If you leave, I wonāt be able to do it.ā
Finally, tears rolled down his eyes that he was trying to hold back and Jiang Yuyan felt frozen. He looked hurt and she wanted to console him butā¦she just could not.
āStand up first,ā she instructed softly.
Lu Lijun did so as he had promised to listen to whatever she would say. He knew he would break in front of her and he didnāt wish to. He wanted to leave but heard her.
āLu Lijun, what happened?ā her voice was filled with hurry. Though she should be happy that he was ready to give up, she was worried as well to think what caused him to decide it so suddenly. In the morning when he came he was still adamant butā¦.
Not answering her, Lu Lijun walked towards her and hugged her as he mumbled in his choked voice, āJust one last timeā¦ā
Jiang Yuyan could not push him away and let him hug her and asked, āTell meā¦ā
āJust donāt leave,ā was what he said and moved back. āTomorrow Iāll inform our family. Come back home,ā he said and turned around immediately as he wished to leave before she could stop him.
Yuyan could only look at his retreating back who left in a hurry. It was the same place where in the past the elder brother confessed his feelings to her and after so many years in the same place, the younger brother decided to give up on her. This place, this balcony had witnessed these moments which always remind Jiang Yuyan about them.
The butler and Xiao Min, who were worried now what will happen, saw Lu Lijun coming downstairs. Before the two could even react to him, he straightway walked outside the living room.
āIāll check on the boss,ā Xiao Min said and went upstairs. He saw Jiang Yuyan still standing in the Balcony as she looked dazed.
āBoss, are you fine?ā he asked as he thought Lu Lijun must have fought with her again.
She looked at him but said nothing as she walked past him to go downstairs to her room.
āā-
Lu Lijun went to his car and drove out in a hurry. After driving away from there at speed, he stopped at a quiet place at the roadside after a few kilometres. The tears he was holding back till now finally rushed out like a flood. He had given up on the only important thing in his life and without her, he felt empty and lost. He didnāt imagine this day would come where instead of confessing his feelings to her a number of times, he will finally give up on her for her own sake.
He stayed there for some time and left soon. He knew San Zeminās men kept going on this way and if they found him, they would report it to Jiang Yuyan.
Lu Lijun went to Lu Mansion this time. The next day he had to tell his family about his decision and he would end the misery for Jiang Yuyan so she would return home, her own people, her family.
