Chapter 251: Chapter 251 Why

The glass double door slides open and Yue Ling and Lu Tian exit out of Imperial Military Hospital. Lu Tian suddenly remembers that the fashion show and Grandfather Ji's birthday is nearing. He looks at his wife and sees her playing with the keys to his car in her hand.

Thinking of something, he sneakily takes the keys from her hand.

"Eh?!"

Yue Ling surprisingly jumps a little and looks at the man next to her. She tilt her head and frown.

"Why? I thought I was driving?"

Seeing her quick change in expression from surprise to a frown, Lu Tian smiles and takes her by the hand. Leading the way to the car he spoke to her.

"I'll drive us somewhere. I need help deciding on some things."

Hearing his words, Yue Ling was now confused. Allowing him to lead the way, she touch her chin with her free hand.

"Eh? You need help?" Her head tilt to the side again making her look like a lost and confused child. "What can it be that the King of Jealousy needs help with....?"

Lu Tian: "..."

The was dumbfounded, but because he is Lu Tian, he is able to pretend he didn't hear her. Did she really think she was quiet? How can she call him the King of Jealousy? He isn't that kind of person, all he ever does is love his wife and care about her. When did he become known as the King of Jealousy? Who can he possibly be jealous over?

Well..... no...

Shaking the thought away, he continues to guide his wife to the car. Of course, he doesn't know where she parked the car, but knowing that its his own car, he can pick it out in a parking lot.

As the couple leaves to their next destination, this time at the Ji Mansion, Jingxu just arrived home from an afternoon outing. He steps into his room and carefully place his book bag down. He unzips the bag and takes out an already wrapped gift.

Looking down at it, he smiles happily.

After his older sister came to visit, Liangcai, Ting, Xue Yi and Ye Fei wanted to go out. He tagged along so that he could go find a gift for one of the two people who means the world to him.

Staring down at it, JingXu's smile widens. He had the shop wrap it up since he doesn't know how to wrap a gift nicely. Of course, this gift is only one of the two gifts.

Without taking his trench coat off, he turns around and leaves his room. As he heads in the direction of his grandfathers study room, his head dart left to right making sure no one sees him.

As he nears the room, he sees Housekeeper Hu walking out of a room near the end. Jingxu quickly moves his body to the side and crouch down behind a pot of plant.

One....

Two....

Ten....

After counting to ten, he slowly poke his head out. Seeing that the coast is clear, he sighs in relief and straightens his posture.

Taking a step forward, he continues on to the study room until he stop in front of it.

He took a deep breath and reach for the door handle. A little part of him cant help but feel guilty for going into his grandfathers study room without asking. However, when he came home, he asked one of the maids if his grandfather was home and she said the old man had left to Ji Corps.

Besides, it wasn't like he's stealing anything. He just wants to make sure that the old man opens his gift first.

The door knob clicks open and Jingxu enters the room. He slowly closed the door and stood in the center of the room. Looking at the only shelf in the room, he lift one of his hand to touch his chin.

Will the old man see the gift if he puts the gift there?

He looks down at the gift in his hand then to the shelf. Everything on the shelf was very minimal and there was nothing that was big enough to hide the gift. Plus, knowing the old man, he doesn't really pay attention to the shelf.

Looking away, he looks at the room to every furniture inside in decision.

His lips pout forward into thinking, then he looks to the old man's desk. A glint of light flash across his eyes as he thought of the perfect place.

Walking over to the desk, he set the gift down then scoot the chair back and squat down. Looking at the two drawers on either sides of the desk, he scratch his head and stare blankly.

Which side would work?

Thinking hard, he decides to put it in the right drawer. However, an inch from opening it, he suddenly remembers that everything usually important, the old man would put inside the left drawer.

Deciding on it, he closes the drawer and turns to the left drawer. He takes the gift and gently place it inside with a few folders covering it.

Slowly closing the drawer shut, he sighed in relief that he had accomplished it without anyone seeing him. Standing up, he straightens his clothes.

*Click*

"...."

The door knob click in open. Watching it open, Jingxu's face drained of all colors. He quickly squat down on all fours. Beads of sweat starting to form on his forehead.

Who could it be?

What will he say?

Why..... Why? Whhhhyyyyy—-?!!!

Arrrrhh!! It's Housekeeper Hu!!!

The old man's figure could be seen from behind the half open door. Just as he was about to open the door all the way, a voice calls out to him.

"Housekeeper Hu, there is a phone call for you."

A maid's sudden voice sounds from behind the door. Housekeeper Hu who was just about to enter the study to dust stops in his tracks. He looks to his right and nod his head.

"Alright, I'll be down there to answer the call."

Closing the door, he leaves to take the phone call.

Inside the study room, Jingxu sighed a deep and long breath. He must thank who ever it was that saved him from being seen. Of course, its not that he cares, but he wants it to be a surprise for the old man. Knowing the workers inside the Ji Mansion, none of them can keep their mouth closed when it comes to things life this.

He sighed again and wipes the sweat on his forehead. Peaking from behind the desk, he stands up to leave before Housekeeper Hu returns. Even worse, his grandfather.

*Drrrrrrrrrrrr*

"!!!!!"

*Thud*

Jingxu quickly covers his mouth and falls onto the floor. He looks at whatever it is that tripped him over and sees the end corner of his coat was caught by the T handle of the right drawer.

He scratch his head and unhook his coat from the end of the T bar handle. He glares at the drawer for stopping him and closes it again.

*Drrrrrr!!!*

Just when he closed it all the way, he quickly pulls it open again. His eyes quiver as he stare down at the inside of the drawer.

"....."

Like an entire day had gone by, he gulp with great difficulty and he reach his hand down. Ignoring the fact that his hand was trembling, he takes hold of a piece of paper inside the drawer.

Both his trembling hands holding to each side of the paper as it shook.

'Patient Name: Ji Huan'

He slowly reads each word, one after another as his eyes turned read. Until he reads the last line, his entire body froze with time.

'Positive Diagnose: Cardiovascular Disease'

Like the world had suddenly tumble down on him. His vision blur and the words in front him fade in view. His lips tremble and he looks away from the piece of paper.

When?

Why?

Why.....?

Questions flooded his mind as his legs gave up on him and he falls back onto the ground. When was the old man sick? Why didn't he say anything? How long has it been? Why has he never notice anything wrong with the old man?

He stare at the paper again and like a person with no emotions left for the world. His hands dropped to his side still holding the paper and his mind became a total blank.

The only thing that cross his mind was one word and that is...

Why...
