Jiang Yue had no idea that Lu Jingnian was right outside the door. She remembered reading about Lu Jingnian's misfortunes in the book. Marrying Jiang Yue was bad enough, but he was almost killed by his good-for-nothing cousin who only knew how to gamble.
"Jiang Yue, you...you dare threaten us?"
Lu Dajiang's eyes reddened with anger; his only precious son was the one he cared about most.
You're wrong.
Jiang Yue shook her head seriously, "Threats are just to make the other party afraid and wary; they won't actually do anything."
But I'm different; I really dare to have someone do it.
"you……"
Lu Dajiang looked at the woman in front of him with a half-smile. Although she was thin and weak and had no threatening aura, the way she stood there with that half-smile gave people the intuition that he really dared to do it.
"Aren't you afraid I'll go tell Lu Jingnian's superiors right now that you're threatening us?" Lu Dajiang said viciously.
"Go ahead."
Jiang Yue wasn't afraid at all. "Everyone saw it just now. I brought you all here with great joy. Once you leave this room, I'll tell you that you bullied me, and I'll also talk to the leaders about how you abused Lu Jingnian. Let's see if they'll believe you then."
When Jiang Yue went home yesterday, her father told her that Lu Jingnian was their boss's darling, and that their boss would always side with Lu Jingnian if he was in the right.
"What should we do now, sir?"
Wang Huahua was at a loss after Jiang Yue's words. This woman had completely disrupted their plans. Now it seemed that no one would believe them no matter what they did. Most importantly, Wang Huahua was afraid that Jiang Yue would really find someone to break their son's legs.
Lu Dajiang's beady eyes darted around a couple of times, and he gritted his teeth. "Jiang Yue, right? I'll remember you. We won't make a scene today, but I won't let you and Lu Jingnian have it easy. You just wait and see."
Before Jiang Yue could speak, a creaking sound was heard.
The door was opened from the outside.
Seeing Lu Jingnian at the door, Jiang Yue's eyes flashed with surprise, and she quickly walked towards him.
"Honey, you're back."
Jiang Yue went over and took Lu Jingnian's arm. "Look, Uncle and Aunt are here, but they're leaving soon. You've come back just in time. Let's see them off together!"
Upon seeing that cold face, Lu Dajiang subconsciously trembled.
Lu Jingnian glanced at Jiang Yue, his eyes softening, and he even smiled at her.
Jiang Yue was stunned. Last night, she had used all her strength to get this man to smile at her, but she never expected him to smile at her so suddenly today.
It has to be said that Lu Jingnian looks very handsome when he has a cold face, and even more handsome when he smiles. If there weren't outsiders present, Jiang Yue would really like to hug him and kiss him a couple of times.
"good."
Lu Jingnian let Jiang Yue put her arm around his arm, walked into the house and closed the door, then his gaze fell on Lu Dajiang and Wang Huahua standing inside.
"It seems that my second uncle and aunt still didn't take my warning to heart."
"Lu... Lu Jingnian, I'm your second uncle, and I'm still in your army. If you dare to lay a hand on me, do you believe I'll go to your superiors right now and tell them you're disrespectful to your elders?"
"Yeah!"
Lu Jingnian told Jiang Yue to let go of him first, then walked up to Lu Dajiang and punched him in the chest.
"Bang!"
Lu Dajiang's thin frame was knocked to the ground by the beating, and the pain in his chest almost made him unable to breathe.
"Honey, are you alright?"
Wang Huahua turned pale with fright and quickly went to help Lu Dajiang.
Jiang Yue stood obediently beside Lu Jingnian, afraid that he might really beat Lu Dajiang to death, and tugged at his hand.
It's not worth getting your hands dirty for someone like that.
"It's alright, I know what I'm doing."
Seeing that Jiang Yue was worried about him, Lu Jingnian's expression softened considerably.
"Lu Jingnian, you actually dared to hit me here? Fine, I'm going to find your boss right now."
Lu Dajiang clutched his chest, got up from the ground, and started walking outside.
Jiang Yue said softly, "Then Second Uncle should have a good talk with the leader and ask Lu Jingnian to give you more money, so that you won't not have enough to pay for your son's leg treatment."
After saying that, Jiang Yue asked Lu Jingnian, "Honey, which of their son's legs do you think I should have broken?"
"Or I'll just break both of their legs. They bullied you so much before; from now on, I'll have someone beat them up every day."
"Honey, you can't go."
Wang Huahua was so frightened that she quickly stopped Lu Dajiang, "Honey, what if they really go and get someone to beat up our son?"
Those who gamble are all good-for-nothing scoundrels who will do anything for money.
A few days ago, because Old Wang's son couldn't pay his gambling debts, he set Old Wang's house on fire.
"I don't believe it. How could a little woman like her dare to hire those thugs to beat up our son? We're in H City, far from here. She's from A City; she doesn't know anyone from our area."
Lu Dajiang has now realized that Jiang Yue was clearly just trying to scare them.
“Jiang Yue doesn’t know anyone in H City, but I do.”
Lu Jingnian looked coldly at Lu Dajiang, "Second Uncle knows what I used to do. I've told you before that I don't care about my future."
"At worst, I won't wear this uniform, but I'll still make sure your family doesn't have an easy time."
In the past, Lu Jingnian genuinely didn't care about his future.
He initially chose to join the army because of Jiang Zhenguo's words. He wanted Jiang Zhenguo to see that he had not let him down and had become a useful person to the country. He was willing to die even if it was just to die gloriously.
He even hoped that he could die sooner.
But now...
Lu Jingnian glanced at the little woman beside him, her face full of concern for him. His heart felt warm, as if it were being soaked in lukewarm water. He suddenly felt that the world wasn't so cold after all, and that living wasn't so bad.
Moreover, Jiang Yue is now his responsibility as a husband, and he cannot abandon her.
"Well done, Lu Jingnian. I'm going to see today whether you really don't care about your future."
Lu Dajiang angrily shook off Wang Huahua and stormed out the door.
Jiang Yue naturally couldn't let him ruin Lu Jingnian's reputation. She quickly messed up her hair and tore Lu Jingnian's clothes, even tearing off a button from his shirt in the process.
Lu Jingnian: "..."
Jiang Yue cupped Lu Jingnian's face in her hands and comforted him.
"Don't be afraid, I will definitely not let him put the blame on you."
After saying that, Jiang Yue saw that Lu Dajiang had already gone downstairs, so she turned around and walked out as well. As soon as she stepped out the door, she burst into tears.
While crying, Jiang Yue walked downstairs to chase after Lu Dajiang.
"Second Uncle, you can't do this! You're trying to kill Jing Nian and me! We've already promised to pay for Second Aunt's medical treatment, but we really can't come up with three thousand yuan."
Jiang Yue was the most prone to crying, because in the orphanage, only the crying children got candy.
