A Warm Wedding and A New Bride of Young Master Lu

e the case to us.
Focus on getting better. ”

Su Jianan shrugged.
”It ’s not like I can do anything about it even if I worry. ”

”I bet your Boss Lu doesn ’t have the heart to let you worry about work.
Not when you ’re hurt like this, ” Xiao Ying said in a giggly tone.
”He went up the mountain to search for you yesterday despite the heavy rain.
He even beat the pros by locating you first.
That really shocked everyone for quite a while.
In the past, we ’re always so envious about how nice he ’s been treating you.
Now it seems like he ’s willing to lay down his own life for you. ”

Su Jianan cleared her throat awkwardly.
”Aren ’t you guys supposed to be busy? How is it that you guys still had the time to engage in idle gossip? ”

Captain Yan glared at Xiao Ying.
”Be serious! ” He said.
Then, turning back to Su Jianan, he said, ”Just rest well.
We ’ll head back to the town first.
There ’re still loads of things waiting for us to do. ”

The squad leader, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke.
”Miss Su, ” he said.
”I ’m here on behalf of our entire police station.
We wish you a speedy recovery, and we deeply appreciate the dedication you have shown to our case. ”

”It ’s all in a day ’s work.
I ’m just doing what I should so. ” Suddenly, Su Jianan remembered that the squad leader was a local.
”By the way, squad leader.
Can I ask you something? ”

”By all means, ” said the squad leader.
”I ’ll answer you anything as long as it ’s within my knowledge. ”

Su Jianan suddenly felt a bit sheepish.
But then she remembered Lu Boyan ’s picky appetite, so she decided to go all in, ”Are there any decent restaurants in town? ”

That was obviously not a question that the squad leader had been expecting.
It took him a while to recover and give her an answer.
”Ah, you ’ve come to the right person for that question, ” the squad leader said.
On a piece of paper, he wrote down the names of a few restaurants including their addresses and handed it to Su Jianan.
”I ’ve been to every restaurant in town.
These few aren ’t bad and are worth a try. ”

”Thank you. ”

”You ’re welcome, ” the squad leader said before leaving the room with the others.

Lu Boyan came back into the room not long after.
He was speaking on the phone when he walked in, leaving work instructions to his assistants.
He was frowning as he spoke, and his forehead bore the signs of exhaustion.

”It ’s probably a huge inconvenience for him to be in City Z, right? ” Su Jianan thought.

When Lu Boyan hung up, Su Jianan asked to borrow his phone.
She then used the phone to send the address of the restaurants to Shen Yuechuan.
When she was giving his phone back to him, she looked as if she had something to say.

Lu Boyan knew every single one of her facial expression far too well.
”What is it? ” He asked straightaway.

”Um…
Do you want to head back first? ” Su Jianan asked.
”What ’s going to happen to the company if you keep staying here? ”

”What ’s going to happen to you if I go back? ” Lu Boyan stared at her with a blank expression.
”I can run the company remotely.
Do you think I ’ll be able to do the same when it comes to you? ”

Su Jianan interlaced her fingers together.
”My injuries aren ’t that serious.
Plus, my brother and Jiang Shaokai are both here.
You don ’t have to worry about me.
I ’ll head back once this case is solved. ”

Her intention was to relieve some of Lu Boyan ’s exhaustion, though Lu Boyan had completely misconstrued her meaning.

His eyes narrowed dangerously.
”Oh, so you think Jiang Shaokai will be doing a better job looking after you, is that it? ”

”That ’s not what I— ”

Su Jianan was cut off before she could finish.

”Also, I won ’t be able to look after you, since I ’m flying back to City A tonight. ” The door opened and in came Su Yicheng.
”I ’m your brother.
Some tasks will be too awkward to handle if I ’m the one taking care of you.
How can my care compare to Boyan ’s? ”

”… ” Su Jianan bit her lips and said nothing.

Su Yicheng gave Lu Boyan a look, signaling him to leave first.
Feeling a surge of frustration in his chest, Lu Boyan left with a frown.

Su Jianan and Su Yicheng were the only ones left in the room.

”Why are you refusing to go back with him? ” Su Yicheng asked without preamble.
”It ’s impossible for him to leave you on your own at a time like this. ”

”I don ’t know how to face him, ” Su Jianan said, her head hanging low on her shoulders, and her voice betraying her confusion.
”He told me a few things, and right now, I ’m still in a state of disbelief.
I feel the same way as Xiaoxi did when you suddenly told her that things were possible between you two.
I feel like I ’m in a dream.
I guess I just want to figure things out before I go back. ”

”What else is there to figure out? ” Su Yicheng laughed.
”You said you lacked confidence.
But Lu Boyan was the same.
He lacked confidence, too.
He thought you had feelings for someone else, so he tried to be nice to you without saying anything.
In fact, he even had to worry about you feeling burdened if he was too nice to you.
It wasn ’t easy for him, you know? If it were me, I wouldn ’t have that kind of patience.
I will just make the person you like disappear from the face of the earth and then take you for myself. ”

”But he said… ” Su Jianan trailed off, feeling a bit sheepish.
After a bout of stammering and stumbling over her words, she told Su Yicheng about Lu Boyan having feelings for her long before they were even married.

Su Yicheng was stunned at first, and then he started laughing.

”I was wondering why he was so nice to you after you two got married.
So the truth is that he ’s got his eyes set on you ages ago, ” Su Yicheng said, shaking his head.
”You two really make an interesting pair.
Your feelings for each other were already so obvious from your daily interactions, and yet neither of you realized a thing.
At the end of the day, it all boils down to your lack of confidence, the both of you. ”

”Jianan, he really does have feelings for you.
Otherwise, he wouldn ’t even bother being nice to you, because that ’s just not his personality.
Look, you should give it a rest even if he really did piss you off this time.
A person like him? I ’m telling you, his patience and temper are much worse than you imagine. ”

”What do you mean, ’a person like him ’? I seem to recall you being the same type as well, ” Su Jianan said, mercilessly having a dig at her own brother.

”Fine, I ’m the same. ” Su Yicheng raised his hands in surrender.
”I ’ll be heading back to City A tonight.
You should go home after two days ’ rest.
Don ’t mess around anymore, understood? ”

”Fine, ” Su Jianan said grumpily.

Su Yicheng patted his sister ’s head and left the room.
Outside, he saw Lu Boyan smoking at the end of the corridor.

He walked over and took the cigarette out of Lu Boyan ’s hand.
”Stop smoking.
She ’d probably ignore you again if you go back inside smelling like tobacco. ” ”That ’s just how she is.
She ’s headstrong and yet easily moved.
If you still can ’t handle her in two days, just take the hard approach. ”

Su Yicheng patted Lu Boyan ’s shoulder and left the hospital.

Lu Boyan opened the window, and a breeze swept in.
The smell of tobacco on his body gradually diminished…
