Note- This is part 2 from the previous chapter which I didn't separate before. If you have read it already, read the next chapter.

Lu Jinhai let Lu Lijun sit and took a moment before starting to talk.

Lu Lijun sat quietly, not asking why his father had asked for him, and waited for him to talk while staring at the small, finely carved wooden sculpture of the dragon on the table.

"Since you are back, I didn't question you about anything and let you do what you want," Lu Jinhai spoke.

Hearing it, Lu Lijun looked at his father and waited for him to come to the main point.

"But I think it's the time when I should ask," Lu Jinhai added.

"What does the father want to ask?" Lu Lijun finally spoke.

Lu Lijun still looked calm, but his eyes held the mysterious coldness that could tell there were so many things inside him that he was not happy about but couldn't let it out.

"Since the past few days, you haven't been good. What's the matter?"

"I'm fine….."

"You even took out your anger on the things in your office," Lu Jinhai interrupted his son, knowing he was not telling the truth.

Lu Lijun didn't know how to answer it. "It was just momentary."

"Today, you left home early without having breakfast."

"I had something to do out."

Lu Jinhai sighed. "I just want you to share it with me. If there is anything, we can solve it together."

"There is nothing left to solve," Lu Lijun replied.

Though he sounded cold, underneath, it looked like he was emotionally disturbed and tried his best to control those emotions.

"If you don't want to talk to me, you can go to your elder brother, Lu Feng," Lu Jinhai suggested.

"There is no need."

"Lu Lijun, you can't always hide..."

Just then, Lu Jinhai's cell phone rang, and he had to stop talking.

"Wait a minute," said Lu Jinhai picked up the call.

Lu Jinhai started talking on the call, and from the greeting conversation, Lu Lijun understood it was Mr. Wen and heard what they talked about.

Lu Jinhai laughed a bit while talking and said, "Of course she is fine with it. Yuyan told her opinion this morning. If everything goes right, we can sure be relatives from friends."

Hearing it, Lu Lijun clenched his fists as his hands rested on the hand rest of the chair.

'So finally she is ready,' he thought.

Lu Jinhai again replied to something that Mr. Wen said, "Yes, we can let the two meet officially and talk."

'As if they never talked,' Lu Lijun's mind was busy talking silently to himself.

Just as he thought about leaving, Lu Lijun heard his father again, "About Lu Lijun, though we are there, Yuyan would be the one to make the final decision."

It angered Lu Lijun, 'She can't decide for me.'

"Let's talk about it in the evening when you come to my home," Lu Jinhai spoke. He said bye and hung up the phone.

Lu Lijun was ready to stand up, "I'll take a leave."

"Wait."

Lu Lijun stopped.

I wanted to talk to you about something else too, but you were busy and not in a nice mood, so I didn't talk to you."

Lu Lijun waited for his father to talk, expecting not to hear anything good.

"You have come across Wen Zac so many times," Lu Jinhai said.

Knowing where this talk was going, Lu Lijun nodded with a heavy heart. He felt like soon he would be suffocated by someone.

"From what I talked to my friend just now, you must have understood what we were talking about."

"Hmm," Lu Lijun nodded.

"What's your opinion about it?" Lu Jinhai asked.

"When all of you have already decided, does my opinion matter?" Lu replied coldly.

"Of course, it matters. It's your family, and she is…."

"When President Lu has agreed to it, I don't see there is any need for my opinion," Lu Lijun countered.

"Aren't you happy about it?" Lu Jinhai asked.

"How can I not?" Lu Lijun said, but his words seem sarcastic. He stood up, "I have work to do."

Lu Jinhai nodded, agreeing to let him go, and Lu Lijun left.

Seeing him like this, Lu Jinhai was sure something bothered him and thought to talk to Noah about it later.

-----

Lu Lijun went to his office where Noah waited for him. They had to work together, but Noah was there to check on his friend.

Seeing his serious mood, Noah asked, "Is everything fine?"

Lu Lijun didn't answer and sat in his chair, leaning back and closed his eyes.

Letting him calm for a moment, Noah waited for his friend to say something.

After moments of silence, Lu Lijun got ready to work and replied, "It's time to celebrate as your big boss is getting married."

Noah understood and exclaimed. "Are you sure?"

"Just got the good news from Mr. Chairman," came the calm reply from Lu Lijun.

"Are you fine with it?" Noah asked.

"Doesn't matter," Lu Lijun replied and continued to work.

Just then, there was a knock on the door, and the receptionist opened the door.

"President Lu asked for the fourth young master," she said just to get the cold reply in a split second.

"I'm not free," Lu Lijun said.

The receptionist was taken aback by this, as something like this never happened. No one ever dared to say it when it came to President Lu.

Noah turned to look at the puzzled receptionist, "You can leave." His sight assured her as if saying, don't worry.

Once she left, Noah spoke, "Why are you not going."

"I'm not in a mood for celebration," Lu Lijun replied.

"It must be something important," Noah suggested.

"I don't care," came another cold reply.

Noah sighed deeply, seeing his stubborn friend.

"President Lu cares for you, Lijun," Noah spoke.

Noah intended to tell him her caring actions that went unnoticed by others. He even wished to tell Lu Lijun that Jiang Yuyan came to visit him when he was drunk. He didn't want his friend to see only one side of things.

"All these years, she didn't care for me, but I wonder why this much care all of a sudden," Lu Lijun spoke, going through the file.

"It's not...."

There was another knock on the door that interrupted Noah. The door opened, and Noah turned to look while Lu Lijun stopped working as if he sensed something to froze him in the place.

Though Lu Lijun didn't look at the door, he sensed who the person was. Noah stood up and bowed to the person, "President Lu."
