Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

Chapter 870 Finally Decided...

The next morning after breakfast, Lu Jinhai was ready to leave.

Looking at his son like a proud father, Lu Jinhai patted his shoulder, "Take care."

"I am coming to the airport," Lu Lijun informed.

It surprised Lu Jinhai as he didn’t think his son would come to see him off but seems like his son knew what the right thing was to do.

"Hmm, okay," Lu Jinhai agreed as he felt happy.

Both sat in the back passenger seat as Jerome sat in the front passenger seat.

At the airport, before leaving, Lu Jinhai finally tried to say what he wished to.

"I hope you thought about what I said yesterday."

"Hmm."

There was no confirmation in Lu Lijun’s reaction that would show he will return home.

"All this year, Yuyan alone..."

"Father, I will think about it and let you know when I will come to see grandma," Lu Lijun interrupted his father the moment he heard Jiang Yuyan’s name.

"Are you still upset with Yuyan? She did it....."

"I don’t concern with anyone with that name," came the cold reply from the stubborn guy.

"You should blame me instead of her. I was the one who...."

"Father, have a safe journey," Lu Lijun left, not willing to hear anything further, and Lu Jinhai could only helplessly look at him going away.

Jerome, who had heard everything, went to Lu Jinhai, "Master, the fourth young master needs some time. He would be back soon."

"Do you think so?" Lu Jinhai asked.

Jerome was the person who had seen Lu Lijun growing up all these years and might know more things about him than anyone else.

"Trust me, he is a good person that we all should be proud of, but he is just upset. He shows he doesn’t care, but he does."

"Hmm! Good to know it."

Lu Jinhai thought about something and spoke again, "All these years you and Martha were the ones who took care of him. Thank you so much for looking after him."

"I am glad to serve him."

Lu Jinhai left, and Jerome went back to the car, but Lu Lijun was not there and asked the driver, "Clark, where is the fourth young master?"

"He didn’t come here," Clark replied, and Jerome understood he must have left to go somewhere else.

Lu Lijun went to the university as Noah had an exam that day for his side course of corporate law, and Lu Lijun wished him luck. Just as he waited for him at the parking lot, Noah arrived there and noticed his friend.

Stepping out of the car, Noah went to him, "Am I a kid that you are here to wish me luck?"

"Hmm, I had a doubt you might run away from the exam."

Just then, someone else arrived there.

"You too, Jake?" Noah asked.

"I had some work here but happened to see you two by chance,’ Jake had an excuse that his two friends couldn’t accept.

Noah went for his exam while the two sat in the garden.

"Why do you look stressed today," Jake asked.

"Father came to visit me," Lu Lijun replied.

"Hmm, you told me yesterday. Then?" Jake asked.

"He wants me to return home."

"Hmm, and what do you want?"

"My grandma is not well, so I thought to visit her."

"You should and not just grandma, but you can meet the entire family after so long. They all would be happy."

Lu Lijun chuckled, "All? I doubt."

"Why? Is there someone who might not be happy to see you?" Jake asked.

"Not sure about it."

"Then, you should make it sure."

Lu Lijun looked in deep thought but didn’t know what to say.

Jake could see through him and said, "Instead of overthinking, sometimes it’s better to face the things."

Lu Lijun agreed with what he said, but the next moment he looked at Jake, "Shouldn’t you be doing the same?"

"Cough!" Jake looked at his wristwatch. "Are we sitting here till his exam is over?"

Lu Lijun raised his one eyebrow, "Don’t you want to?"

"When did I say it?" Jake looked awkward.

Soon, the exam was over, and Noah came out. The moment he stepped towards his car, he got a call from Lu Lijun, and Noah looked around just to see his two friends standing, looking at him.

Noah went to them, "You guys are still here?"

"Jake didn’t want to leave," Lu Lijun answered, and Jake frowned, "Says the one who wants us to tell him what he wants."

Seeing the two ready to argue, Noah spoke, "Okay, I understood. First, let’s go somewhere. I am starving," Noah instructed, and they left in Noah’s car while Jake preferred to send his car back with the driver.

While having lunch together, Noah asked, "So what’s the deal?

"I need to return to China to visit my grandmother," Lu Lijun informed.

"Ohh, that’s nice. Should I book your tickets along with me for tomorrow evening?"

"Tomorrow?" Lu Lijun felt it was too soon. He was yet to prepare himself as it would be awkward to see his family after so many years.

"Hmm, we can leave together," Noah replied, focusing on eating while Jake noticed how the colors fled away from Lu Lijun’s face.

Lu Lijun felt his throat drying up with the thought of facing someone so soon when he was not even ready as he felt his heart beating faster again.

"I will think about it. It’s too soon." Saying Lu Lijun emptied the entire glass of water down the throat.

Noah and Jake looked at Lu Lijun and then looked at each other as they knew this guy again behaved differently and looked a bit anxious. Lu Lijun was always so confident and brave, but whenever there was a topic about his family and him going back to home, his reaction was always the same.

Noah and Jake gave each other a meaningful look, and Noah spoke as he finished chewing and gulping the bite.

"As you want to go, what does it matter if it’s today or tomorrow? Or are you hesitant to face your family after so long?"

"What if he has someone that he wants to avoid," Jake commented.

"Really? Is it a pretty girl?" Noah asked.

"If it’s a girl, then she must be pretty for sure as our guy so handsome," Jake concluded.

"Not a doubt, look at him. I wonder who the lucky girl would be?"

THUD!!

Both looked at Lu Lijun as he put the glass in his hands on the table, making a sound that stopped his overtalkative friends. Not just these two but the others in the restaurant looked at him.

"Are you two done?" Lu Lijun asked as he passed a killer gaze to his friends.

before they could answer, they heard the command from Lu Lijun, "Book the ticket for tomorrow."

Jake and Noah looked at each other as their plan worked, but the sad part was Lu Lijun knew what these two were up to.

Noah exclaimed, "That’s our boy."

Jake agreed, "Yeah...."

"One more word and both of your teeth would be on the table," Lu Lijun warned, and the two kept quiet.

"Ohh, let me instruct my man to book the tickets first." Noah dialed the number and informed the man.

The two friends knew Lu Lijun wanted to go home, but he wouldn’t accept it. It was always effective when his friends push him to that thing by going through some nasty ways.

Not just Lu Lijun, but Jake and Noah were the same. They always preferred to hear what they want from the other two friends instead of admitting it on their own as they understood each other more than they understood themselves.

Jake was happy that Lu Lijun would finally visit his family, but he felt sad too. It was the first time his two friends would go away, leaving him alone, and didn’t know what he would do without them.

Spending even one day without these two had never happened in the years, and now it was so sudden that Jake felt empty only with the thought of it.

The two friends noticed it.

"Don’t worry, Jake. You can come to visit us," Noah tried to console Jake but Lu Lijun interrupted him. "Not us as I won’t be staying there forever. once I visit my grandmother, I would return here."

"Let’s see," commenting, as if he didn’t trust Lu Lijun, Noah turned to Jake, "I would be staying with brother Tian, so it’s a great opportunity for you to spend time with your brother."

Jake exclaimed, "Are you staying with my brother?

"Yes!"

"Don’t you have your place?" Jake asked.

"My parents are in city S, and where I am going, it will take time to get a place, so till then, I’ll be living with brother Tian. We already talked about it."

Jake pulled out his cellphone, "I can get you home there right away. Let me...."

Noah took Jake’s cellphone away, "Wait, no need for your highness’s generosity. I will get it once I find the place that I would feel like to live in."

As the lunch finished and Noah excused himself, Lu Lijun looked at Jake, who looked lost in thoughts.

"Do you think you have the right to act like this?" Lu Lijun asked and instructed, "It’s his life."

Jake cleared his throat, "I-I was just worried about his stay. He might not be comfortable at someone else’s home," Jake countered.

"He is comfortable with brother An Tian even more than you, so it’s useless to worry about."

"Hmm!" Jake agreed, just to hear his friend again, "Or are you thinking to..."

"Don’t say anything. I am already disturbed," Jake warned, and Lu Lijun agreed.
