Chapter 1247 - Embarrassing Her
Just then Ming Rusheng and Lu Lian were coming downstairs. Zhang Jei noticed Lu Lian had changed her clothes but didn't react but her daughter gave her a wicked smile and Zhang Jei glared at her to not say a word.
"Looking at them I already get the feeling that they are married," Ming Lan said.
"Soon. Whether he gets his memories back or not, I will make him marry her," Elder Ming added.
When the two reached closer, they stopped talking and the doctor who was busy talking to Ming Yusheng had started removing the cast from Ming Rusheg's hand.
"Mr. Rusheng, how did you get your cast wet? Did you not cover it while getting into the shower?" the doctor asked.
"My brother is so impatient to wait and first cover his injured hand," Ming Lan commented with a light chuckle and Lu Lian gave her a narrowed-eyed look while Ming Rusheng was unaffected as if nothing had happened.
Maintaining his usual cold expressions, he asked the doctor, "Is there a need to put it on again. I feel like my hand is fine now."
"No need to put the cast again but we have to keep it wrapped for a month to avoid any kind of stress. We can also start physiotherapy for it. In a month, it will be fine."
Wrapping his hand in a removable belt, the doctor left after some instructions.
"Rusheng, I have something to tell you," his father said.
"Hmm?"
Ming Yusheng told him about the marriage proposal from Wens for Lu Lain and asked, "What do you think about it?"
Ming Rusheng had no such reaction even after hearing it and looked at his sister, "What do you think?"
"I already said yes to it," Ming Lan replied.
It surprised him and he stood up, "Come with me."
Seeing him like this, Ming Lan's heart skipped a beat and others felt worried too. Ming Lan quietly stood up and followed her brother out of the living room.
"Father, why do you think he took her away? Why can't he talk in front of us?" Ming Yusheng asked.
"Even I don't know," Elder Ming replied and looked at Lu Lian who herself had no idea, "Do you know?"
"No grandpa," she replied.
"I hope he won't say no to this proposal. He might not like his sister marrying his friend," Zhang Jei said.
"Mr. Wen is a good man so I don't think he will object to this marriage?" Lu Lian assured.
"I hope so."
Taking the time and leaving others worried as they felt each passing moment like an eternity, finally, the Ming siblings returned.
"We can proceed with it," Ming Rusheng informed.
"So you don't have any issue with this?" Zhang Jei asked.
"When Lanlan is ready, I have no objection," he replied.
"Now we can finally have one wedding in the family thanks to my thoughtful granddaughter," elder Ming said and looked at Ming Rusheng, "Or I had lost the hope already."
Ming Rusheng ignored his grandfather's sarcastic reply and sat calmly.
Lu Lian stood up as she looked at her wristwatch, "I will take a leave now."
"Why are you leaving so early? You are having lunch with us," Zhang Jei offered.
"I didn't inform home and they will wait for me..."
"It's okay. When you are here, they will be more than happy, especially your grandfather," elder Ming interrupted her.
"But…."
"Have lunch with us," Ming Rusheng said and looked at her with a meaningful gaze, "After taking care of me for so long, I am sure you must be feeling tired now."
Lu Lian's eyes were left wide open at what he said and she felt embarrassed while others didn't know how to react.
Zhang Jei stood up, "I will arrange the lunch," and left.
"I will help you mother," Ming Lan followed her mother.
Ming Yusheng stood up holding his cellphone as he got the call at the right time.
Elder Ming stood up, "I am already starving," and walked towards the dining room with his cane.
Once everyone left, Lu Lian, who still had those shocked and embarrassing expressions, glared at him, "Can't you talk decently in front of your family?"
"Do you think they didn't notice you have changed into other clothes?" Ming Rusheng countered and stood up to face her. "They must have concluded what we haven't even done yet and must be feeling happy about it."
"But still you can't…."
"Get used to it if you wish to keep coming here," he interrupted, "Now let's go for lunch. They are waiting for us."
"Shameless!" she mumbled.
"Learning from you, Ms. Lu."
Frowning, Lu Lian stepped towards the dining room while Ming Rusheng followed her as he smiled lightly and thought, 'Her tiny nose looks even cuter when it turns red whenever she is angry.'
Lu Lian sat in one chair while Ming Rusheng sat next to her.
Elder Ming who sat in the head of the family chair looked around the dining table where his son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter sat on his right side and Ming Rusheng and Lu Lian sat on his left side.
He smiled contently and said, "Now our family looks complete. Only if I have few grandkids, it will be even better."
"Soon grandpa," Ming Rusheng said that everyone was shocked.
"What? Are you ready to get married?" Elder Ming asked smiling with a sweet shock.
"I didn't yes for the marriage," Ming Rusheng replied.
"Then my grandkids..."
"The way one woman keeps seducing me these days, I am sure I will be a father soon," Ming Rusheng commented and there was a little chaos at the dining table.
Cough! Cough!
Lu Lian ended up choking at the food she was eating and stood up, "Cough..ex..cuse...me..cough!"
She went to the washroom while others glared at him for saying such a thing to embarrass a poor girl.
He sensed their gazes on his and replied calmly while eating peacefully, "I didn't say it's her."
"You should not embarrass her like this," Zhang Jei warned.
"She will get used to it," he said and looked at his grandpa, "I said nothing wrong."
"What can I say when everyone says you took after me. I am the one to blame."
"I will check on her," Ming Lan said.
"I'll go," Ming Rusheng stood up and went towards the washroom where Lu Lian left.
He knocked on the door of the washroom and heard Lu Lian, "Lanlan, give me a minute."
Ming Rusheng opened the door and entered the washroom where Lu Lian was standing in front of the mirror, looking all embarrassed.
"I told you to give me a minute...." Lu Lian looked at the person who had just entered. "What are you doing here?"
"Came to check on you," he replied.
She frowned, "You are the one to embarrass me in front of everyone and now came to show your care."
"If you don't want to be embarrassed like this all the time, you should better stop coming here."
'Ah, so this is all to drive me away!' Lu Lian concluded and frowned inside, 'My ass!'
"Did you get what I mean?" He asked.
"No, I didn't," she replied stubbornly.
Ming Rusheng closed the washroom door and it surprised her, "Why did you...Umm!"
Ming Rusheng cornered her and kissed her harshly. He bit her already hurt lip and this time it was clear on her swollen lips. he turned her to face the mirror and she looked at her hurt lips.
"I am sure you wouldn't like to go in front of them like this and show what we have done here."
"You..."
He held her tight at the shoulder while standing behind her and didn't let her move. "If you still act stubborn, I won't mind making few marks on your neck."
She gave up, "Fine!"
He let her go and she stepped out of the bathroom. She left without saying bye to anyone and Ming Rusheng returned to the dining table.
"Where is she?"
"She didn't wish to eat. Must be too embarrassed," he said and resumed eating.
"You should stop embaresing her then?" Elder Ming said.
"If she can't handle this normal teasing, I can't help it," Ming Rusheng replied and the other three gave him death glares which he ignored blatantly.
