Chapter 618 The Last Gif
When these three calmed down, Jiang Yuyan lifted her head to look at her mother-in-law and Ning Jiahui wiped her tears with her hands.
\"I-I won't say don't cry because I know it's impossible to do so,\" said Ning Jiahui, her voice heavy and choked.
\"Mother, I... miss... him.. I can't live without him…,\" Jiang Yuyan said, her voice choked as she cried.
\"I know..I know…\" Ning Jiahui hugged her back.
\"I couldn't tell him he would be a father,\" Jiang Yuyan cried out even louder. \"How happy he would have been, mother?\"
Ning Jiahui had nothing to say other than crying. She realized this girl in front of her was going through worse pain than what she was going through after her son's death. The girl lost her husband just after a few months of wedding and lost her baby too. It made Ning Jiahui come back to her senses and she tried to control crying for the sake of Jiang Yuyan.
Since Jiang Yuyan came back, it was the first time she cried. She couldn't understand what happened to her, but from Ning Jiahui she got that warmth which made her open her heart. It might be because Ning Jiahui was the one who gave birth to the man she ever loved and he was the part of her.
Jiang Yuyan kept crying for long while Lu Lian and Ning Jiahui continued consoling her. Once she was done. Jiang Yuyan looked at Lu Lian and instructed, \"Bring mother's medicines,\" and Lu Lian did so.
Ning Jiahui had to take medicine as Jiang Yuyan asked her and she didn't have the heart to say no to her.
\"Mother, from now on don't miss your medicines,\" Jiang Yuyan instructed and Ning Jiahui took the medicines obediently.
\"And don't worry about Lu Lijun as he is fine now and would be alright soon,\" Jiang Yuyan informed her.
\"Thank you so much for taking care of him.\"
\"No need to thank me as he is someone that belongs to me too.\"
Getting up from the floor, Jiang Yuyan gave her mother-in-law her hand to get up from the chair, \"You should sleep now, mother.\"
Nodding, Ning Jiahui went to her bed and Jiang Yuyan covered her with a quilt with the help of Lu Lian.
\"Be with mother and don't let her skip medicines,\" Jiang Yuyan instructed Lu Lian and she nodded.
Jiang Yuyan was about to leave but stopped and stepped towards Lu Lian. Before Lu Lian could ask what happened, Jiang Yuyan hugged her, \"I am proud of you for being so strong and taking care of others.\"
Lu Lian had no words to say. All these days, despite being the youngest one in the family, Lu Lian was taking care of others, forgetting her own pain. She must have cried but must be alone as no one was there to ask how was she doing and she didn't expect anyone to do so. In such a bad time, she acted strong.

When Jiang Yuyan went back to Lu Lijun's room, Lu Lijun was in a deep sleep. She tucked his quilt properly, which was thrown away by him in sleep. Patting his head as she was about to leave, she heard him.
\"Don't go.\" His forehead having the furrowed lines.
Jiang Yuyan stopped and turned to look at him, but he was mumbling in his sleep. Sitting at the edge of the bed, she continued patting his head, letting him know her presence and soon those furrowed lines on his forehead disappeared, Lu Lijun turned in his sleep and held her hand tightly as if he didn't want her to go.
Giving up to him, Jiang Yuyan made a place for her in the bed to sleep beside him. The bed was huge, so it was not the problem, Lu Lijun still holding her hand tightly.
-----
The next morning, after breakfast, Su Hui asked Jiang Yuyan to stay back in the living room as she wanted to tell everyone about something. Jiang Yuyan sent Lu Lijun back to his room along with Lu Lian and told him she would be back soon.
In the living room, everyone was waiting for Su Hui to say for what she called everyone there.
\"I know it's a hard time for the whole family but the things which are meant to be done, we can't leave them.\"
Everyone was listening to her to say it further and finally, gathering her courage, Su Hui spoke, \"We have to go to our ancestral town to bury Lu Qiang's ashes.\"
Hearing it, everyone felt something stuck in their throats and sat there quietly. They knew Su Hui was right, and even if it was hurting, they had to do it.
Su Hui moved her sight to Jiang Yuyan, \"Yuyan, you….\"
\"When are we leaving?\" Jiang Yuyan asked coldly, interrupting Su Hui and it startled everyone.
\"Tomorrow, as we have to do it before the fifteenth day of the death,\" Su Hui replied.
\"I will be ready.\" Saying Jiang Yuyan was about to get up but someone entered the living room that made her stop.
It was Xiao Min who came there holding a huge gift box in his hands. He straight went to Jiang Yuyan and said, \"This is for you.\"
Not accepting that huge gift box, Jiang Yuyan stared at Xiao Min and then to the box, questioningly.
Xiao Min got the meaning and replied, \"The night before the accident, the boss called me and asked me to prepare this for you.\" His voice was shaky as if he would cry soon.
Hearing it, Jiang Yuyan accepted the box and put it on the sofa to see what was inside it. Not just her, but others were looking at the box too. It was the last thing Lu Qiang did for her.
She opened the box and went through it. First, there was a large size greeting card that had an animated picture of a baby and a mother. It shocked her to her bones. 'How can this be?' she thought as she looked at the other things inside the box.
