Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

Chapter 395: Sacrificing a dream...

"In this farmhouse, he spent most of the time while drawing, playing with me and Lu Feng and with the Fish in the pond. For almost a year he was mute but slowly he started to open and adjusted himself with others. After a year we return to Lu mansion. During that time of one year, I met An Tian. He was an assistant to doctor Zhang and he helped us as much as he could as doctor Zhang shifted to another country."

"An Tian!" Jiang Yuyan said.

"Hmm! The same An Tian who is now a designer," Lu Qiang replied.

"Later as guided by An Tian, we first started his schooling from home for a year and when he was ready to go outside world, we enrolled him into a school. He had to skip one more grade because of his genius brain. Soon I could see the changes in him as his behavior was matured that the kids of his age but at the same time he was like an innocent kid with me and Lu Feng as we pampered him a lot and he might have liked it."

"We wanted him to be like kids of his age and not to lose is innocent side so I and Lu Feng always ignored his mature side and treated him like a kid. We didn't want him to miss those sweet days as a child."

"That incident had a great impact on his already unstable mind so you might see changes in him often as he acts differently according to the situation but nowadays he is showing his mature side more and I and Lu Feng don't know if it's good or bad."

"Why bad? In my eyes he is better than older people around when we compare being matured," Jiang Yuyan said.

Lu Qiang nodded and said, "After that one year, he hardly had any nightmare but last night he must be scared a lot to have it after so many years."

"He is still a kid even though he shows himself as a strong person," she said and Lu Qiang agreed.

In Lu Feng and Jiang Yang's room, when Lu Feng was ready after a bath, Jiang Yang asked, "Are you going to tell me what had happened with Lu Lijun?"

Lu Feng understood what Jiang Yang meant and narrated him everything while sitting in a couch.

"Ohh! It was bad for such a young kid," Jiang Yang said.

"Lu Qiang still blames himself for his condition at that time," Lu Feng said.

"I can understand him as I still blame myself for Yuyan's condition back then," Jiang Yang replied.

"Lu Qiang too sacrificed his dream of a life that he was crazy for and always worked hard for it," Lu Feng said and Jiang Yang asked, "Soccer?"

Everyone was aware of how much Lu Qiang was crazy about soccer and what he had planned for his future and how hard he worked for it.

Lu Feng nodded, "He got a chance to be in a national team and to get trained for it but he had to give up after the accident of his father. It was the same day when he got selected and he didn't even get the chance to give this good news to anyone and instead got bad news of the accident."

Jiang Yang stayed silent feeling bad for Lu Qiang as he was aware of his friend's dream but at the same time, he could understand him as he too had sacrificed his dream of studying space science.

Lu Feng continued, "Later, during the one year stay in the farmhouse, he got one more and the last chance to fulfil his dream. His coach asked him to join practice again as there was going to be a selection process again. The coach was aware that his father was back to his position and Lu Qiang was able to join a team again."

"As insisted by uncle Lu Jinahi, he joined the team and practice soccer while taking Lu Lijun with him. It was more for Lu Lijun so that he could get along with people outside and Lu Lijun too enjoyed seeing Lu Qiang playing soccer. I used to accompany them too as to take care of Lu Lijun when Lu Qiang was busy with his practice."

Jiang Yang was listening to everything and thought started to run in his mind that why Lu Qiang was not playing soccer even after getting one more chance and soon Lu Feng cleared his curiosity.

"He got selected for a national team and we all were happy but there was one issue."

"What issue?" Jiang Yang asked.

"Lu Qiang had to go out of the country for six months for training and now you can understand." Saying it, Lu Feng stopped giving out a deep sigh.

"He didn't want to leave Lu Lijun."

Lu Feng nodded, "Hmm! And I was with his decision as Lu Lijun needed him the most but I assured him that I will take care of him in his absence but he was firm on his decision."

"I would have done the same," Jiang Yang replied and asked, "Is he afraid of the dark?"

Lu Feng nodded, "What can we expect from a kid who was left alone in the dark for two days without food or water and that too in a scary place where nothing can be heard."

"Enough to traumatize anyone," Jiang Yang replied and asked again, "So for that one year you were with Lu Qiang then how come you were not so close to him when I came here."

"It was just for that one year and for the sake of Lu Lijun. Later I went my own way. Moreover, at that time there was the only thing we talked and cared and that was Lu Lijun," Lu Feng replied.

"Will you ever tell a reason for your such odd behavior," Jiang Yang asked.

"There is nothing to tell as I just want to leave my life alone," Lu Feng replied without any hesitation.

"What can I do other than believing in your words." Saying it, Jiang Yang leaned back in a couch beside Lu Feng and both sat quietly.
