Chapter 904 I Was A Kid Too

Lu Mansion.

The men return home from the gym just before breakfast hours. Everyone was in the living room, talking, and having some fun.

Seeing Lu Lijun, the little guy Weiwei went to him, "Uncle, you are back. When will you help me?"

Lu Lijun had the same cold expressions that no one could melt other than certain someone.

"Let me go to my room first," said Lu Lijun, calmly, considering the kid.

"Your uncle is just back, and you started troubling again," Wang Peng spoke as he signaled his son to behave.

Weiwei stepped back and made way for Lu Lijun. Everyone went to their rooms.

Though Lu Lijun had showered in the gym and changed into the new clothes, the summer made him sweaty again as he was used to the low temperature in England.

He reached the second floor and stepped towards his room as he ruffled his damp hair to feel better.

Just then, Jiang Yuyan stepped out of the room to go downstairs, and her sight noticed the guy whose face was lowered down as he ruffled his hair with the fingers.

For a moment, she thought that was Lu Qiang and felt her heart froze, but the next moment, Lu Lijun stopped playing with his hair and looked up ahead just to see Jiang Yuyan staring at him.

Seeing his face, she returned to her senses, realizing he was Lu Lijun and averted her sight.

The similarity between both brothers' physic was enough to confuse others Lu Lijun with Lu Qiang unless they see the face. Lu Lijun's features resembled Lu Qiang, but there was a difference, letting others easily identify he was not Lu Qiang.

Having her usual cold expressions, Jiang Yuyan stepped ahead while Lu Lijun continued looking at her as he stepped towards his room.

When both passed each other, Jiang Yuyan stopped as she called him.

"Lu Lijun." her voice was neutral as if she called a stranger.

Lu Lijun stopped but didn't turn to look at her, and both stood facing their backs to each other.

"After breakfast, be ready to work on a project. We only have two days left."

"Hmm."

With this Jiang, Yuyan left to go downstairs, and Lu Lijun went to his room.

---------

Jiang Yuyan went downstairs. Weiwei came to her and held her hand.

"Aunt Yuyu, you are looking so pretty." His praising sounded good in that innocent voice and not so clear words.

Jiang Yuyan didn't know how to react as everyone was there. No one talked to her like this for long, and she was not used to listening to it. She just patted his head and heard elder Lu calling her.

"Yuyan, come here."

Jiang Yuyan sat on the sofa, and Weiwei sat beside her, unwilling to let go of her side.

Jiang Yuyan hardly spent time with the family as most of her weekends were spent in her and Lu Qiang's home. As it was the time to do something for grandma, she couldn't stay out of it. After all, whatever she did was only meant for her family.

"We all are going to the farmhouse today," Elder Lu informed, "And you have to come with us. Grandma will like it."

Though Jiang Yuyan had work to do, grandma was more important.

"I will be there."

Just as they talked in a while, everyone came downstairs. Lu Lijun saw the little guy sitting with Jiang Yuyan, not letting go of her hand, and he stuck to her like glue.

Everyone sat on their seats at the breakfast table, and Weiwei asked, "Aunt Yuyu, can I sit with you?"

Jiang Yuyan nodded, but the little guy had another demand, "But I want to sit on your chair."

Lu Lijun looked at the little guy annoyingly as Jiang Yuyan had to sit on the other chair if Weiwei sat on her chair.

"Weiwei, sit with me," his mother instructed.

Jiang Yuyan had always sat in the same chair since the day she came to Lu Mansion, and everyone knew why it was so important. Lu Qiang was the one who gave her that place, and she never left it. After that, no one ever sat on that chair other than her.

Weiwei was about to move, but Jiang Yuyan stood up, "Sit here," she instructed.

Weiwei happily sat in her chair while she sat next to him. Lu Lijun didn't feel it right as he too was used to seeing her there, but no one could do anything in front of the little guy.

Just as they started the breakfast, Weiwei demanded again, "Aunt Yuyu, feed me."

Lu Lijun glared at the little guy as he thought, 'this is too much now.'

Jiang Yuyan was about to say yes, but before that, Lu Lijun spoke, "You are a big guy. Everyone eats here with their hands."

Weiwei's face turned sad, and he looked at Lu Lijun with hurt expressions.

Others looked at Lu Lijun surprisingly. This cold guy who would say a single word as if he was doing a favor to others, said two long lines. No one knew what to say as they just pitied Weiwei.

"It's okay. He is still a kid," Jiang Yuyan broke that awkward silence, being ready to feed Weiwei.

Lu Lijun stopped eating but didn't look at her, "I was a kid, too, when I was instructed to leave home."

The entire dining room turned dead silent. Everyone stopped eating, and even servants rooted in their places.

Putting back the spoon in his hand back on the table, Lu Lijun stood up, his intentions clear.

"One should not waste the food," Jiang Yuyan commented before Lu Lijun could leave.

Lu Lijun didn't turn back but looked at the servant in front of him, "Send it to my room," and left.

"Yuyan, Weiwei is naughty. Just ignore him," He Kun, Weiwei's mother said apologetically.

"He is a good kid," Jiang Yuyan patted Weiwei's head as he was sad and offered him a piece of meat from her chopsticks, which he ate smiling brightly.

Everything turned normal, but they didn't know how to deal with Lu Lijun and how to calm him down. Looked like he still blames Jiang Yuyan for sending him away.

--------

While going back to his room, Lu Lijun didn't know what happened to him and why he was so annoyed. What exactly did he want to do? When everything was going fine, why did he have to ruin the entire family's efforts to make grandma happy?

Feeling angry over himself and the things he didn't know what, he went to his room and sat on the couch as he closed his eyes. The memory from the past flashsed in front of his eyes when Jiang Yuyan instructed him to leave for England.

"You are going to England, and that is the final decision whether you want it or not, so go back to your room and start packing your stuff. You are leaving this week."

Her cold voice still rang in his ears that shocked him at that time and made him think how can she send him away from her.

The servant knocked on the door, and it pulled Lu Lijun out of that painful memory.

The door opened, and the servant arranged his breakfast on the coffee table.

Lu Lijun went to the coffee table and looked at the food. As instructed by one person, he didn't waste the food and finished it all.
