Chapter 912 No Praising from her...

After resting at noon, everyone went to the garden to have family time. They avoided visiting nearby places as Lu Bao was pregnant, and it was mostly hillside.

Though Jiang Yuyan was with the family, she spent her time working on the project as they had to the deadline till Monday. When everyone was out, but her elder Lu asked the servant to call her.

Jiang Yuyan couldn’t say no to grandpa’s order and instructed the servant to arrange the workplace for her outside.

When others talked and had fun, she sat a bit away, where the servant arranged a table and chair for her.

"Yuyan, come here. You can work later," Elder Lu instructed.

Jiang Yuyan wanted to say she will join after a while, but Weiwei came to her running, "Aunt Yuyu. Play with me."

Jiang Yuyan patted his head and was about to say she will play later; Lu Lijun came and sat in one chair as he picked up one file, intending to work with her.

"Give me some time, till then play with Aunt Wang Shu," Jiang Yuyan instructed.

Nodding, the little guy, and Lu Feng came to them as he sat in another chair, "Yet to finish it?"

"Hmm, will finish it tonight," Jiang Yuyan replied.

"I hope the new assistant is working fine," Lu Feng asked Jiang Yuyan, and Lu Lijun looked at his brother.

"I can say anything only once we finish it," Jiang Yuyan commented.

"But I know he will do his best," Lu Feng said, and Lu Lijun acted as if he didn’t hear it.

"Will see," Jiang Yuyan replied, being busy in her work.

Lu Lijun looked at the other two in disbelief. They talked about him and the way this woman spoke as if she didn’t believe his capabilities. Was she trying to provoke him? He thought, as frowned lines visible on his forehead.

’Whatever,’ thinking, Lu Lijun continued his work.

He knew what the other two were trying to do, but he won’t fall for it. He will just assist her till the end of the project and then leave.

"Enjoy the work." Lu Feng stood up and went to the elders.

The others looked at how Lu Lijun and Jiang Yuyan were working together. Though these two talked once in a while when there was a need, the site seems peaceful with both working peacefully.

"How are they doing?" Elder Lu asked when Lu Feng sat with them.

"For now, it’s all peace, but we can’t say how long it will continue," Lu Feng informed.

"I am worried he might trouble Yuyan with his stubbornness," Ning Jiahui added.

"Don’t worry. Yuyan knows how to handle him or till now, we would have seen the worst," Lu Jinhai said.

"I wonder what exactly Yuyan did that he is doing everything that I thought he wouldn’t do," Lu Lian asked, who was sitting with her sisters on her sides.

Lu Lian knew his younger brother well, and she never thought he would return home so soon, and after that, he will even work with Yuyan.

"Huh?" the sisters looked puzzled.

"She did nothing," Lu Feng said again as he smiled.

He was right. Jiang Yuyan never went to him and tried to coax him or apologize to him for what he was angry about. She never showed him her soft side and never even asked or forced him to do anything. She was just neutral, like how she was with others.

------

It was about to be dark, and Lu Feng asked Jiang Yuyan to stop working.

"I need to finish....."

Before Jiang Yuyan could finish what she was about to say, Lu Lijun put one file on the table and looked at his brother, "It’s all done."

Jiang Yuyan picked up the file that Lu Lijun kept and went through it. Seeing the finished most of the things, Jiang Yuyan put it back and looked at Lu Feng, who was looking at her as if asking, ’now what’.

"Just a few things left. We can do it later," Jiang Yuyan informed and stood up to go to the elders.

Lu Feng patted his brother’s shoulder, "You worked really good."

Lu Lijun didn’t reply to him and instead stared at one woman who should have said it to him that he worked well, but she just went away.

It’s not like he ever wished anyone to praise him. Instead, he never liked it, but he felt like to hear it from her.

"Let’s go," Lu Feng instructed, and both went to the other family members.

"Aunt Yuyu, so many fish are there. Let’s go see them," Weiwei held her hand and took her towards the pond.

As they went away, Wang Shu commented, "This little thing won’t let her rest."

"It’s okay. She is willingly listening to him. Let them be," Grandma spoke as she looked at Jiang Yuyan, who allowed Weiwei to drag along with him towards the pond.

Grandma was happy that there was someone who would trouble her, melt her coldness, and she wouldn’t say a word.

While walking, Lu Feng and Lu Lijun went towards the gazebo where Jiang Yuyan and Weiwei looked into the pond. As it was the dark, the light from the gazebo and around there, allowed them to see what was inside the pond.

"Uncle, come here," Weiwei called them, feeling happy to see the fish.

Lu Feng and Lu Lijun went there. The other two sat on the rocks at the pond’s border, which was arranged in a way so one can sit comfortably.

Lu Feng went on to Weiwei’s side to accompany them and sat as they smiled and talked.

Lu Lijun stood at a distance, but his sight was fixed on Yuyan, who sat quietly beside Weiwei while looking at the pond. She was not smiling, but there were some change expressions from cold to a pleasant one.

The light from the water reflected on her face making it look attractive. He remembered the past when he and Yuyan used to sit together around the pond and spend time.

Just as he was in a daze looking at her, someone disturbed him. His sister came and patted on his shoulder.

"Why are you standing here? Let’s go." Lu Lian dragged him towards the pond.

"It’s your favorite place, and why were you standing there? View from here is better from there." Lu Lian said, sitting on one rock while Lu Lijun said nothing.

"Sit here," she instructed as only the space beside Jiang Yuyan was empty.

"I’m fine here." Saying he stood up beside his sister but didn’t sit beside Jiang Yuyan.

They spent some time there and decided to go back. Lu Feng lifted Weiwei in his arms as there were rocks, and he might fall. Lu Lian stepped ahead to go as Lu Lijun helped her holding her hand for the support.

"Thank you," Lu Lian said and stepped ahead, getting out of the rocks and Joining Lu Feng.

Jiang Yuyan stood up too, and Lu Lijun felt worried that she might trip. He wished to give her a hand, but even before he could ask, the rock below her feet slipped, and she was about to fall in the pond.

Lu Lijun held her hand and pulled her towards him with a tight tug to save her from falling in the pond. The next moment, she landed in his embrace.
