Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband
chapter-38

Elder Lu's wedding anniversary was the biggest event of the evening in the city. The guest list included all the top business families, people from the entertainment industry, socialists, and media people, and of course, those who were rich and famous.

The venue of the celebration was considered the most luxurious and expensive in town, making it impossible for the common people to afford it. The reporters gathered at the venue to capture every façade of the event and catching glimpses of the guests who were coming to attend. Soon, a steady row of expensive cars lined up, and well-dressed people entered the room.

The sound of flashlights from outside could be heard and the surroundings illuminated from the light of the flash.

The hall was well decorated with mesh with beautiful flowers and white net-like cloth hanging from the walls and windows. The ceiling had multiple tiny chandeliers which gave the room a starlit look. The room had a stage opposite to the entrance.

Lu Jinhai and Lu Chen were inside the hall with their wives, ready to greet the guests.

It seemed that as the hall filled with guests, Lu Qiang was the only one who was missing. It could be said that the guests and media were waiting for his arrival.

Lu Jinhai made his way to the Jiang family when he saw them enter and hugged them tightly in greeting. "I'm so glad you could come," he said with a pleasant smile on his face.

"It's such an important event. How could we miss it?" Jiang Peizhi had always considered Lu Jinhai's parents as his own and often referred to them as father and mother.

"Let's go meet father. He will be ecstatic to see you," Lu Jinhai said after greeting the rest of the family.

They headed towards the elderly couple, who were surrounded by guests. When they close enough, Jiang Peizhi raised his voice a little and greeted them properly.

"Happy Anniversary, father, mother," he said respectfully.

"Jiang Peizhi! Finally, you are here," the older man said, going forward to hug this junior of his. He affectionately patted the other's back.

"I am glad to see you here, son," Zhao Shuang chimed in, happiness evident on her face.

"We were eager to see you again. You have been missed the years you were away," said Elder Lu. Consequently, he shifted his eyes to the three people who had followed Jiang Peizhi to congratulate him.

"How have you been, Roulan?" Zhao Shuang asked with a smile.

"Still coping with your son," she joked. "Wish you a happy anniversary."

"This must be Jiang Yuyan," Grandpa Lu suddenly spoke up.

"Happy anniversary," she congratulated with a light bow.

"Just like that?" There was a slight disappointment in the elder's tone. "Won't you give us a hug?" He was excited to see her. Since she was a kid, he had doted on her more than the other children, and she had seemed to reciprocate the care. But so much time had passed, and she felt distant and awkward in the situation, but the casual behavior of elder Lu made her feel at ease. She stepped forward without hesitation and hugged him with a beautiful smile on her face.

"You have grown up to be such a beautiful lady. I am so glad to see you here." He patted her head gently. She thanked him shyly and then went to hug grandma Lu.

Jiang Yang took the opportunity to congratulate the couple.

"Thank you so much! You are the junior Jiang Peizhi. You are just as handsome as him." There was admiration in elder Lu's voice.

Both the kids had spent eight years away from the roots and needed some time to readjust with these people they had previously known. Jiang Peizhi took the opportunity to familiarize them with the other members of the Lu family.

While they were busy conversing, a black Mayback arrived at the entrance of the hotel. A handsome man in a stylish black suit stepped out of it, and the reporters rushed to capture a glimpse of him. The man was incredibly handsome with well-defined features, a strong build, and more than six feet in height.

His hair was arranged fashionably and his thin and pointy nose made for a captivating image. His pitch-black eyes were fixed on the path in front of him. He found the crowd parting to make way for him. He obliged, stepping inside the hall, clearly in everyone's sight. As he stepped inside the hall, the people in the room turned to stare at him.

Silence filled the room.

The Jiang siblings who were quietly conversing among themselves realized the hushed atmosphere and turned to look in the direction everyone was staring at. Surprise gripped them as they saw the source of awe.

"What is he doing here?" Jiang Yuyan asked, shocked.
