Chapter 1527  Way To Make Sure It's Not A Dream

Jiang Yuyan just hung up the call after talking to Lu Lijun while walking along with Lu Lian after getting out of the car. "Seems like my brother said something nasty to make your face turn red like this," Lu Lian commented. "I have no way to deal with you shameless Lu siblings," Jiang Yuyan frowned while Lu Lian laughed and they continued to walk towards the mansion. Both went to their rooms first and later had to accompany the family for dinner. Lu Lijun was not home and Jiang Yuyan had to face everyone on her own. Just as she was about to go downstairs, she received a message from Lu Lijun that he would be very late and he was with Jake. She understood something must be there and went for dinner alone. 'At least today he should have been with me to face everyone. Not sure what I will do tomorrow. Shall I go to my parents home. Right I can do that but...once again I have to answer them. I guess, facing mom dad is easier than my family. Thank god they are still here in China.'

At the dinner table, when everyone was there but Lu Lijun, Elder Lu asked, "Where is Lu Lijun?"

"He is not back yet," Ning Jiahui replied. Elder Lu frowned, "Your son is becoming like you, Jinhai. I am telling you. No care for a family and knows nothing but business and work.

"He left the office. Is he not home?" Lu Jinhai wondered only to hear his angry father once again, "then why is he not home. He is your son or mine? How come you don't know."

Lu Jinhai had nothing to say as he subconsciously ended up looking at Jiang Yuyan and then everyone looked at her  to know about him as if she was the one who could know about Lu Lijun and it was totally normal to expect this from her. Jiang Yuyan cleared her throat nervously under their gazes before answering, "He went to see his friend Jake. Something must have happened so he had to go there."

Elder Lu's anger calmed down, "Alright. If he was working at this hour, I would have pulled his ears."

"He is not so unreasonable to stay out," grandmother said, "he has no reason to stay out when his family is here."

"Family?" Lu Lian cleared her throat as she had a teasing smile on her lips, "I would say one certain someone is here, he must be dying to return home."

Jiang Yuyan glared at Lu Lian and felt like twisting the ear of this naughty girl. No one said anything about it and Jiang Yuyan felt like she could still breathe. "Have you finalised your wedding dress?" Ning Jiahui asked. "Yes, Mother. Yuyan and LanLan helped me alot even with rest of the shopping."

"That's good," Ning Jiahui replied and looked at Jiang Yuyan, "Have you finalised your dress, Yuyan?"

Jiang Yuyan, who was eating quietly, looked at her mother-in-law, "I..am yet to do it." She didn't expect Ning Jiahui to ask this and was taken by a little surprise. "Wedding is near, make sure you get it done soon," Ning Jiahui instructed.

"Yes, mother."

Jiang Yuyan realised nothing had changed as everyone was doing what they always did. Ning Jiahui had done this even before and she would inquire about Jiang Yuyan's preparation whenever there was any event. 'It's not them, but it's me who has changed.'

As they ate, Jiang Yuyan wondered what would be more awkward, whether to talk with the family directly about her and Lu Lijun or to let it continue as it was, going on without anyone saying a word. —--

Lu Lijun and Noah went to An Tian's home. They rang the bell but no one opened the door for a while. "Seems like he is sleeping," Lu Lijun said and heard Noah, "Why do you have to ring a bell when you know the lock password?" He didn't wait for Lu Lijun to say anything and entered the password. The door opened and the two entered the entirely dark place where not a single light was on. It felt worrisome to both. Before Lu Lijun could even react, Noah hurried and turned on the lights and looked around the living room with worry but no one was there.

"I see, someone is eager to…"

"It's not a time for your jokes. First look for Jake," Noah hurried towards the guest room where he found Jake lying on the bed just randomly as if he didn't care how he slept. His feet were hanging out of the bed and he was sleeping on the foot side of the bed. Lu Lijun followed him as well but he preferred to stay behind because he could see how worried Noah was. From the moment they left office, Noah was quiet and Lu Lijun knew his mind was somewhere else.

Noah went to the bed and kneeled on the floor as he looked at Jake's pale face, "Jake," he shook his face, "Wake up." Noah felt Jake had fever and looked at Lu Lijun, "I think we need to call for a doctor.

Lu Lijun pulled out his cellphone and went out to call for the doctor. Noah shook Jake's face lightly by patting his cheek, "Jake, wake up."

There was no response so Noah patted his cheeks a little harsher, "Wake up. Can you hear me?"

Finally there was some reaction from Jake with his brows twisted in a frown as someone was disturbing him in his deep sleep. "Wake up," Noah said again and finally found Jake opening his eyes slowly. "Thank god you are awake," Noah said while Jake tried to clear his vision to look at Jake and mumbled with annoyed frown as he closed his eyes back, "Damn it! Same annoying dream."

Noah was taken aback and patted his cheeks again, "Hey, wake up. Are you drunk? It's not a dream."

Jake frowned angrily and held Noah's hand which was disturbing his sleep by patting his cheeks and looked at him with annoyed gaze. "It's not a dream," Noah said, sounding as gently as he could to coax a sick guy. "You can be this soft only in my dreams," Jake mumbled but then heard Noah again, "Trust me it's not a dream."

"This sure is a dream again," Jake's voice was hoarse and tired.

"It's not. You are not well and…."

Before Noah could say more, a hand gripped the collars of his shirt and pulled him closer only to shut his mouth with a pair of chapped lips. Noah was startled as he was being kissed suddenly but then Jake let go of him in a moment. "You asshole!" Noah exclaimed. "It sure is not a dream," Jake said and closed his eyes back. "Is this way to make sure if it's a dream or not, you asshole?" Noah stood up. Jake chuckled, his eyes still closed, "In my dream you never get angry at me. So not I believe you that it's not a dream."

"You…" Noah felt speechless and mumbled, "only if you were not sick."
