Chapter 709 Cut His Tongue...
In the night Jiang Yuyan went to her mother-in-law. Ning Jiahui was sitting on the couch while going through a few documents related to the Lu corporation as she was the one to look after the chairman's responsibility until Lu Jinhai woke up.
Seeing Jiang Yuyan at the door, Ning Jiahui instructed, "Come inside dear."
Jiang Yuyan sat on the chair, "Mother, I have decided to do what you have planned for me."
"Good to know it. I am sure one day you will realize why I have done this."
"I understand mother and thank you for thinking about me and caring for me."
"How can I not as you are my daughter and my responsibility now?"
Jiang Yuyan could only bow to her mother-in-law for standing on her side and supporting her. The love and care she received from the family was the same even after Lu Qiang, the reason for her presence in this family, had left them.
"We have to arrange one introduction ceremony for you as a new president of Lu corporation and one press conference too."
"Hmm!"
"We will do it the first day of next week. It will help to boost the morale of the employees, and it will benefit the company too."
Talking for a while with her mother-in-law, Jiang Yuyan went back to Lu Lijun's room. He was waiting for her already but didn't show it. He had tidied up his stuff and was ready to sleep.
Jiang Yuyan went to him towards the bed and sat at its edge, "Lu Lijun, from Monday, I would be more busy and might not be able to give you more time."
"I can take care of myself. I am not a kid."
"I know but…"
"Just make sure to be in front of me whenever I wake up in the morning," said Lu Lijun interrupting her.
"Hmm!"
"Let's sleep now, it's late," Lu Lijun instructed.
"Hmm!"
Jiang Yuyan hummed again in a reflex but then looked at Lu Lijun, who was setting himself to sleep in his place.
'Why doest it always ends up with him giving me instructions and I have to say yes all the time? This kid, I gave him too much freedom now I need to take the control over him,' she thought.
Jiang Yuyan looked determined to not do what Lu Lijun wanted and said, "Lu Lijun, Sometimes it might not be possible for me to be here when you wake up and also, sometimes the things might go against what you want so….."
"Don't worry, I know how to get what I want. Sleep now," saying Lu Lijun closed his eyes.
'This kid,' frowning, Jiang Yuyan lay down on the bed while facing her back to Lu Lijun. In annoyance, she forgot to pull the quilt over her and soon she felt it was cold in the room.
Just when she thought to get the quilt over, it already covered her. Lu Lijun covered her with it and went back to sleep. Jiang Yuyan turned to look at him, but he already closed his eyes.
----
The next day was the Friday. After dropping Lu Lijun at the school, Jiang Yuyan went to the secret mansion. As she was not yet officially introduced to the world as a President of Lu Corporation, there was no need for her to be there and she had a time to complete her few tasks which she had planned.
Jiang Yuyan stepped out of the car at the secret mansion. As she went towards the door, she looked at the camera above the door that as usual scared the two men sitting in front of the screen showing the sight of the camera. They were yet to get an answer, whatever they did, why their boss always looked at the camera with her scary sight.
Just as she entered the living room, and the door closed, two men talked among themselves.
"Should we ask the boss what two of us had done that lady boss gives us an angry glare all the time."
"Yes, let's do it once the boss is here."
San Zemin and the butler were there in the living room to welcome their boss and follow her.
"Do we have the man here?" Jiang Yuyan asked.
"Yes. We have taken back the report and the case against him and there was no other option for the police than let him go," San Zemin replied.
"What was his punishment?" Jiang Yuyan asked.
"Five years in jail as it was not the intentional accident."
"Where is he?"
"In the VIP room."
"Hmm!"
The butler led her way to the VIP room and San Zemin followed her. As they entered the room. One man was sitting in the wooden chair, his hands locked by the handcuffs with the chair. Two strong build men were already present in the room who bowed to Jiang Yuyan.
Seeing someone entering the room, the man looked at them. He was the driver who drove the truck that crushed Lu Qiang's car.
The butler offered Jiang Yuyan a chair that meant for the boss. As she sat on the chair, the man asked, "Why did you lock me here? Let me go."
"Too noisy," Jiang Yuyan commented as she cleared her ear with a small finger and ignored the man.
"Let me go," the man pleaded again.
Jiang Yuyan enjoyed the way that man looked scared and sweating in fear. She acted as if there was nothing to fear and looked at him calmly.
"Shhh! If we wanted to let you go, then why would you be here? You are here for a reason as we don't have a habit of bringing trash inside the home."
"R-Reason…"
"Do we have such a habit, San Zemin?" Jiang Yuyan asked, interrupting the man.
"No, Boss," San Zemin answered not knowing what his boss had planned for this man.
Getting an answer from San Zemin, Jiang Yuyan looked back at the man, "See, now do you trust me?"
Jiang Yuyan had a pleasant smile on face and the way she was talking was like she was coaxing a child who was throwing a tantrum.
"Why am I here?" the man asked.
"Because we didn't want you to spend your life behind bars for a whole five years. Won't it be good to get punishment for the sin in just one day and get free?" Jiang Yuyan replied as she leaned back in the chair and crossed her one leg over another.
"What sin? It was an accident," the man countered, knowing why he was brought there.
"Here, if the person lies, we cut their tongue." there came the warning coated with the sweet and calm voice of Jiang Yuyan, which sounded scarier than when a person warn someone directly and angrily.
"I did nothing. Please let me go," the man pleaded.
Ignoring him, Jiang Yuyan mumbled.
"Once!"
"I am innocent," the man failed to notice what she was doing.
"Twice."
Seeing no reaction from anyone to his pleading, the driver shouted with all his might, "I am innocent, let me go."
"Thrice."
Saying Jiang, Yuyan looked at the man in the chair as she ordered her men, "Cut his tongue."
