"The one who gave him pain had to go through the same.."
Jiang Yuyan commented that Ning Jiahui felt worried and warned, "Yuyan, I know you are hurt but I won't ever want you to do anything that will make you hate yourself. You won't feel it until you take the revenge but later you will think of yourself as a demon and that's not a good thing."
"I have already turned into one, mother," said Jiang Yuyan, her expressions cold and eyes devoid of any emotion.
Ning Jiahui didn't know how to convince her and felt bad about what this girl is going through at such a young age. "It's not late yet."
"It is, mother and I won't stop unless I punish them or I won't be able to live," Jiang Yuyan declared.
"We are here with you, Yuyan. Together we all can be happy and I know this is what Lu Qiang would want."
Jiang Yuyan stayed silent for a while as Ning Jiahui mentioned Lu Qiang's name, but not allowing herself to feel emotional and weak, Jiang Yuyan looked at her mother-in-law.
"Mother, when I was in hospital, I gave myself two options. Either I die or they die. I tried to take my life, but I failed, so now it's their turn." though her words were threatening, she was calm like a cold breeze.plea
"Yuyan…."
"I know mother cares for me but I don't want to disrespect you by not listening to your words so please don't convince me. I am sure mother must have felt the same as me when her son died and the husband was struggling to be alive. Don't you want them to get punished?" Jiang Yuyan asked, interrupting her mother-in-law.
"I want but I care more for what I have with me. I have you, and I want you to be safe. You are my son's love and I will feel glad to have you by my side."
"I will always be by your side, mother, but I am sure you don't want to have me like one dead person beside you."
"I don't."
"Then don't stop me from doing anything. Once I am done, I will be what you want me to be," Jiang Yuyan assured, but still, Ning Jiahui didn't want her to do anything wrong.
"I remember my son was a lively person, but when he stepped into it, he became cold and had no life for himself. He changed only when you stepped into his life. I don't want you to go through what he had been through."
"I will be all right, mother. I have to be for the sake of Lu Lijun," said Jiang Yuyan.
Seeing Jiang Yuyan so adamant and with all the power she had in her hand, it was impossible for anyone to stop her so Ning Jiahui gave up with the assurance of Jiang Yuyan would be fine.

The same day, Lu's daughter Lu Zhilan came to Lu Mansion. It was her second visit to her parents after Lu Qiang's death but she couldn't stay with them as there was a family business conflict in her family with the death of her father-in-law. Her husband and son were dealing with the sudden disaster in the family while Lu Zhilan came to her parents.
"What the doctors said about brother?" Lu Zhilan asked as she was sitting with her parents in their room while Ning Jiahui accompanied them.
"They are not sure when he will wake up," elder Lu replied.
"And Yuyan?"
Giving out a deep sigh, elder Lu replied, "Poor child, trying to be tough for other's sake."
"But I am worried about her, father," said Ning Jiahui.
"You need not be. She knows what she is doing," elder Lu instructed.
"Is there something that I am missing?" Lu Zhilan asked and Ning Jiahui replied, "She got the power of Lu Qiang in her hand."
"You mean…."
"Yes, and I am worried she might harm herself," said Ning Jiahui, interrupting Lu Zhilan.
"Sister-in-law, being a woman doesn't mean you are weak. If she got that power, that means she can handle it," Lu Zhilan countered.
"Elder sister, you too are siding with her."
"I am stating the fact. It's difficult to get it and if Lu Qiang had passed it to her, that means he knew she could handle it."
Just then there was a knock on the door and Jiang Yuyan entered the room. She greeted Lu Zhilan while Lu Zhilan stepped towards Jiang Yuyan just to hug her lightly.
"Such a strong woman you are. This aunt is proud of you." Saying Lu Zhilan let her go while Jiang Yuyan stayed there silently.
Lu Zhilan continued, "If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to come to me. Though this aunt is old, she sure holds the power to turn everything upside down."
"I will," Jiang Yuyan replied.
Lu Zhilan was a businesswoman and she was aware of all the things going behind the curtains in the business world not to forget the conflicts she had in her own family. She herself had done something behind the curtains that was needed and knew what Jiang Yuyan might do.
Not talking much, Jiang Yuyan looked at her mother-in-law and informed her, "I might be late."
With worry painted on her face, Ning Jiahui nodded, but in her heart, she didn't want Jiang Yuyan to go anywhere.
Jiang Yuyan's car was ready outside of the mansion's door where the butler Xu Dui was standing. The night before the week he took Jiang Yuyan to the secret room in the mansion so Jiang Yuyan knew he was aware of everything but she wondered if he was connected to San Zemin and his men too.
"Have a great day, third young mistress," the butler wished and nodding Jiang Yuyan sat inside the car.
Jiang Yuyan realized the butler did this only for Lu Qiang whenever he went out so she thought, 'Am I his boss too and how much does he know about everything?'
