Chapter 88 Everything Will Be Fine...
’Lu Qiang! I..can’t.....’ She wanted to say something but her voice choked in her throat.Lu Qiang understood, what she wanted to say and without waiting for her reply he said, "I don’t expect you to accept my love right now, right at this moment. I don’t even expect you to love me back so soon. I just wanted to confess my feelings to you. You can have all the time in this world and I will wait for you till the end because i know one day you will love me".Lu Qiang didn’t want to burden her or force her for anything. He knew, there was something from her past that was bothering her and it was stopping her from moving ahead in life. He was ready to wait for her. In his heart, he knew she likes him and he wanted to give her time to accept her feelings.Jiang Yuyan was looking at him and his each and every word was touching her heart. Somewhere in her heart, she also wanted to express her feelings, but she stopped after reminding herself about her past."Lu Qiang... I.....my....past..." Jiang Yuyan wanted to say so many things after listening his honest confession, but instead, she started to cry and her throat was choked that she couldn’t even continue her sentence and was struggling for words.Lu Qiang stepped ahead, hugged her and said while patting the back side of her head lightly with his hand, "Shhhhh! It’s okay...it’s okay... Everything will be fine, trust me".Lu Qiang didn’t know what exactly had happened to her in the past but he couldn’t see her crying like this. He just wanted to comfort her and wanted to say that she would be fine as he was there to take care of her and to protect her.Lu Qiang never expected her to say she loved him too. He just wanted to confess his feelings to her and wanted her to know that ’He will always be there with her and he will always accept her, whatever her past was and her past can’t stop him from loving her’.Jiang Yuyan hugged him back circling her arms around him. She felt safe in his embrace. She wanted to stay just like that. Lu Qiang hugged her tightly and she buried her face in his chest and continued crying her heart out. Both stayed like that for a while. Once she calmed down, Lu Qiang loosened his grip and looked back at her face.She looked at his jacket where she had buried her head and saw it was ruined because of her tears and snot. She was still sobbing a little.Lu Qiang noticed what she was thinking. He picked out an handkerchief from his pocket and cleaned her nose without giving her a chance to retreat.Jiang Yuyan tried to take the handkerchief from him, "I...I can do that, on my own".Lu Qiang smiled and didn’t give her handkerchief instead continued to clean her nose and said, "I did this many times in the past".Jiang Yuyan smiled awkwardly but was still sobbing while lowering her sight.Lu Qiang again wiped her tears, tucked back her loose hair strands, caressed her cheeks with his thumbs and kissed on her forehead. She lifted her face up and looked at him with her moist eyes.He smiled and asked, "Are you feeling better now?"Jiang Yuyan nodded while looking into his eyes. Both were standing very close to each other and her hands were still on his waist. That closeness made both of theirs heart flutter. There was a change in Lu Qiang’s gaze. He was looking into her eyes and slightly moved his face closer to her face.Jiang Yuyan looked at him and didn’t show any sign of restraining. Lu Qiang moved his lips closer to hers and kissed her lightly while holding her face in his palms and caressing her cheeks with his thumbs. She instinctively closed her eyes and kissed him back while circling her arms around him.Lu Qiang started to suck and nibble her lips and tasted her sweetness. Her lips were soft like a jelly and he wanted to taste them till the eternity. He started to suck her lips gently from her upper lips to lower lips, one after other. As he was holding her face in his palms, it was easy for him to move her face according to his need.Jiang Yuyan too was doing the same. She liked the gentleness, in the way of his kissing. For her, it was his way of showing how much he cared for her and she too wanted to make him feel that she was ready to accept his care and love.It was not a passionate kiss but a gentle and romantic one. Lu Qiang didn’t want to rush for anything, he took things lightly and slowly. He didn’t want to repeat the mistake he did that night. He didn’t even planned to kiss her on their first date but things happened in the way, which led him to kiss her and how can he not? She was the woman he loved since he ever understood the meaning of a love.Both were immersed in each other’s embrace while kissing under a starry sky. After few moments both parted their lips away. Both were panting and didn’t want to stop. Lu Qiang looked into her eyes. She blushed and lowered her sight. Lu Qiang smiled on looking at her blushing face and hugged her again gently. She again buried her face in his chest as she was blushing while Lu Qiang was smiling showing his cute canines.Lu Qiang was happy with just this much closeness. He would be happy and satisfied as long as she could be beside him. He didn’t want anything more than that. After staying like that for a while, in each others warm embrace, Lu Qiang asked, "Do you want to see this duplex?"Jiang Yuyan peeked her head out from his chest and nodded with a smile while looking at him.Lu Qiang loosened his grip around her and held her hand in his. He looked at her with a pleasant smile on his face and said, "So?"Jiang Yuyan looked at him in a surprise and asked, "So?"Lu Qiang laughed teasingly and said, "Haha! So, let’s go."Jiang Yuyan too smiled and both walked towards outside of the gallery and entered into the first floor while holding each other’s hands.
