Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

Chapter 1111 - Old and Strong Friendship

In the evening, Mr. Wen met Lu Jinhai at their usual place, the private room in one of the pubs where they always enjoyed drinking and discussing.

"I hope you didn't scold your son for today's project," said Mr. Wen.

"But I'm sure you must have given him an earful in your polite way," Lu Jinhai countered.

"Can't I?" Mr. Wen asked, as he smiled lightly.

"Of course you can. I had to do the same when Wen Zac returned from the USA, and you suffered from his overconfidence."

"Hmm, but Lu Lijun's case seems different. It's difficult to understand what's in his mind," Mr. Wen. commented. "Didn't expect him to make such a weak project.

Lu Jinhai looked unbothered as he enjoyed his drink. "Whatever! He needs to get things straight and work hard."

"I'm going to trouble Lu Corporation. Your son needs to pay for his imm.a.t.u.r.e actions and playing with my daughter."

"Go ahead. If someone had done the same to Lu Lian or Lu Bao, I would have been worse than you," Lu Jinhai assured.

"It won't be a small thing," Mr. Wen added.

"By telling me this, do you expect me to beg you to forgive my son and spare Lu Corporation?" Lu Jinhai asked.

Mr. Wen shook his head. "I know my friend is a tough man that no one can make him beg. And you know I wouldn't like it."

"Whoever you are planning to sell Lu corporations shares, make sure to get the strongest opponent so it would be fun to fight," Lu Linhai added.

"I won't let you down," Mr. Wen assured, enjoying the drinks and talking with his friend.

"How's Liwei?" Lu Jinhai asked.

"She prefers to stay in her room all the time," Mr. Wen replied as he sighed.

"I owe her for taking Lu Lijun's side. You have such a lovely daughter. It's sad that all this happened, or I would have been happy to have her in our family...but…."

"But I'm sure I wouldn't be happy with your son," Mr. Wen interrupted.

Lu Jinhai agreed and said, "But the woman he would truly love, her parents would be more than happy."

This time Mr. Wen agreed. "He is like us. He would cherish his wife even if he is difficult to understand. That's why I wanted my daughter to have a husband who would be like us."

"I know. Not sure what kind of woman would ever interest him? Sometimes I feel like he would never look at anyone."

"Are you doubting his…."

"Not at all. I know my son at least that much."

"Then?"

"His heart is filled with anger and hatred for all these years that he can't feel other things. Everything is our fault, so we can't blame him but let him take it out."

"The way you're talking, it's making me go easy on him."

"No need. Do what you want. If he is weak, then it's his problem. Not all enemies that would come in his way will think of going easy on him."

"You called me enemy now, so I have to do my best."

"Angry and upset fathers are worse than any other enemies. And when the father is like you, I can't expect anything less."

"If you feel too much bothered, you too have my company's shares," said Mr. Wen.

"Stop giving me ideas or might make your dream come true," Lu Jinhai countered as he smiled lightly.

"Go ahead," said Mr. Wen as he smiled too.

"I won't go that low without any strong reason. But the day you will give me one, I will make sure you will never get back up," said Lu Jinhai.

"I'll wait for the strong fight then. I wonder how chaotic the business world will turn if that happens."

"Would be interesting news for everyone."

The two friends always maintained their friendship regardless of the issues in the business world. Not every time the two were on the same side. There were times when they faced each other as business rivals too and fought for the same project, but it never affected their friendship. Sometimes Lus won, or sometimes Wens won, and most of the time, they turned into partners for the same project and had so many joint ventures.

When Mr. Wen returned home late, Liwei was waiting for him in the living room.

"Finally, you are out of your room," Mr. Wen said as he smiled at his daughter.

Liwei didn't smile. From her expressions, it was clear she was upset and was there to confront her father.

"So finally, you came out for that guy's sake who hurt you," Mr. Wen concluded even before Liwei could say anything.

"Father, why do you have to do it?" Liwei asked.

"No one can go unpunished if they trouble my daughter."

"But I'm fine. We don't have to do it," she insisted.

"That's because my daughter forgives others easily, but your father is not like that," said Mr. Wen as he sat on the sofa, opposite his sulking daughter.

Mrs. Wen and Wen Zac accompanied them. Wen Zac was on Liwei's side while Mrs. Wen said nothing as she knew her husband well.

"I would be leaving soon so father should not ruin your friendship with uncle Lu," she suggested.

Mr. Wen could only smile at his innocent daughter. "Do you know where I am coming from?"

"Where?" Liwei asked worriedly, thinking her father must have done something.

"I enjoyed drinks with my best friend," Mr. Wen informed.

"Uncle Lu?" she asked surprisingly.

"Don't worry. Our friendship is not that weak and based on business," Mr. Wen assured.

"Still, I don't want father to trouble him. I was at fault too," Liwei insisted.

"Then, It's the perfect time for you to learn your lesson," Mr. Wen said.

"I understand, father. I won't do it ever again. I'll be strong and would never let anyone control me. I will do only what I feel right," she said.

"Good you understood." Mr. Wen stood up to go to his room.

"Will father forgive him now?" Liwei asked.

Mr. Wen turned to look at her, but this time he looked cold and warned his daughter. "One more thing you need to learn is- don't be so soft and always so considerate to others. Learn to give importance to yourself. More you ask, the more I'll go tough on him."

Liwei turned speechless, seeing her father's cold glare. She could say nothing to defend Lu Lijun.
