chapter-1016
When Lu Lijun went to the office, he was not in an excellent mood. The receptionist greeted him when he entered the office floor, but Lu Lijun acted as if he didn't even hear it and stepped towards his office.
The receptionist looked at each other. One of them smiled awkwardly, "It's fine. Fourth young master is always like this."
The other one nodded, "True, but today something is different. It seems like someone has angered him."
On the way to his office, Lu Lijun came across Noah, who stepped out of his office, which was next to Lu Lijun's.
"Morning, Fourth young master," Noah greeted but got ignored too as Lu Lijun entered his office without even looking at him.Startled, Noah looked at the closed door of Lu Lijun's office, "Wooh, seems like someone messed up with my friend," and knocked on the office door.
There was no reply from inside, so Noah opened the door and entered the office, just to see the cold guy standing in front of the window behind his work table as he stared outside without even blinking.
"Are you alright?" Noah asked, standing near the work table.
Still, there was no reply from Lu Lijun, so Noah understood there was something really serious.
'Did he fight with President Lu? She is the only one who can turn him like this.
Just as Noah thought about it, they heard a receptionist talking to someone.
"Mr. Xiao Min, Chairman Lu asked to see President Lu."With this, Lu Lijun tightened his fists that Noah noticed.
"Will you tell me what's gotten into you?" Noah asked.
Lu Lijun sighed deeply as he closed his eyes and then opened them. "Let's start the work," and went to his chair.
"Are you going to be like this? When will you tell what's going on in your mind?" Noah insisted on knowing it.
Sitting in the chair, Lu Lijun glared at him, "The day when you will tell me what's going on in your mind."
With this, Noah was taken aback and turned speechless. "I'll get the files." Saying Noah left to go to the office.
These friends knew each other well, but there were few things which they didn't want to talk about as it was even hard for them to accept it.
Lu Lijun leaned back in his chair to close his eyes again as frowned lines appeared on his forehead. He looked like struggling over something in his mind.
In the office, Lu Lijun sulked all the time that didn't go unnoticed by anyone.
Lu Lijun even avoided going into the president's office and asked for everything in his room.
It was just half-day, and receptionists could feel the tension around rising. They couldn't even dare to go to Lu Lijun's office to inform him about anything.
All they could do was to go to Noah and inform him. During lunchtime, Noah had to insist Lu Lijun eat something, and only then he ate it.
"I feel like I'm handling a kid and his unknown tantrums," Noah frowned, and Lu Lijun still stayed silent.
At the end of work hours, Lu Jinhai called Lu Lijun in his office. When he went there, Jiang Yuyan and Mr. Wen were already present.
Seeing the three together, Lu Lijun felt even worse than what he had been through since the morning.
"Come, have a seat," Lu Jinhai instructed.
Lu Lijun sat on the couch, expecting to hear something upsetting.
"How are you, Lu Lijun?" Mr. Wen asked.
"I'm good," he replied.
"That day at the party, I apologize if you faced inconvenience," Mr. Wen added.
Lu Lijun stayed silent as he didn't wish to talk about anything but indirectly conveyed that he was bothered by the things that happened party though he didn't mean it.
Lu Jinhai expected him to say everything was fine, but his son was on a different horizon at that moment.
To ease the awkwardness, Lu Jinhai spoke. "Everything was fine. Young people like to mess around with each other. It's not a big deal."
Mr. Wen agreed, "True," and he spoke about why he was there. "I'm here to invite Lu's family for dinner in my home, and I wish President Lu and Lu Lijun would be there."
Not knowing what his son would say out of the blue, Lu Jinhai looked at Jiang Yuyan, and she spoke, "We would be there."
Lu Lijun looked at her as if she said something wrong.
It was as if she sensed Lu Lijun would say no, and before he could say it, she agreed.
'How can she say 'We' when she didn't even ask if I am willing to go or not,' Lu Lijun frowned inside but didn't wish to disobey her words in front of Mr. Wen and kept quiet.
"If there is nothing, I would like to take a leave," Jiang Yuyan said, and the older two permitted her.
Once Jiang Yuyan left, Lu Lijun was about to get up to go but heard Mr. Wen and keep sitting.
"Did you talk to President Lu about Wen Zac?" Mr. Wen asked Lu Jinhai.
Lu Jinhai nodded, "In the morning, I asked her, but she asked for some time to think it over."
Lu Lijun understood when he heard the receptionist talking to Xiao Min when she informed Mr. Chairman asked for President Lu, it was about this.
'What? How can she so easily…..' Lu Lijun screamed inside and heard the two older people again.
"And the other family members?" Mr. Wen asked.
"They would be happy to know it, but first Yuyan's opinion is important. She is the one to decide everything in the family," Lu Jinhai informed.
Mr. Wen agreed with this and spoke, "I arranged this dinner so the two families can know each other well. I'm anticipating our friendship to take another good turn."
Lu Jinhai agreed, "It's all because of our kids."
Mr. Wen looked at Lu Lijun, who was in a daze as if he got the shock of his life, and spoke, "Lu Lijun, make sure to be there."
Lu Lijun just nodded and stood up, "I'll take a leave."
The two permitted, and he left too. Just as he went to his work table and looked at the files on it, the next moment, the entire table was empty, and everything lay on the floor.
