Seeing his friend wouldn't like what they were talking about, Noah apologized. "My bad."
Noah could see the possessive side of his friend that came out rarely and only when someone mentioned that certain someone.
Jiang Yang looked at Lu Lijun. "Don't worry; I wouldn't have told them."
Jiang Yang looked serious as if something was in his mind, but then the next moment, that seriousness changed as he laughed it out, "I don't want my sister to kill me."
Lu Lijun noticed it but couldn't understand what it was.
The two friends were curious to know more about Jiang Yuyan as they wished to know why his friend was like that and what happened between him and Jiang Yuyan.
"We want to know more about them," Noah said, and Jake nodded.
"That's enough," Lu Lijun interrupted, and the two friends stayed silent. But someone was there who wished to talk.
"Lu Lijun was someone precious to Lu Qiang and Yuyan, and still he is," Lu Feng said as he stared at Lu Lijun.
Lu Lijun averted his sight and sighed, "It's all in the past."
Lu Lijun's words directly meant that Jiang Yuyan didn't care for him now.
Lu Feng wanted to say something, but An Tian hinted to him not to while Jiang Yang was in his world in the past as he spoke, "Everything changed after he left us."
Lu Feng patted Jiang Yang's shoulder to console him. Lu Lijun stood up and stepped towards the gallery railing as he said, "Everything changed and would never be the same."
Hearing it, no one could say anything. Noah and Jake turned silent, sensing the disappointment in his friend's heart, while the other three felt worried as they understood the weight of those words. They knew nothing would be like before, at least not so soon.
While having a soft drink from the bottle, Lu Lijun stood at the railing, looking at the sky while others looked at him, not knowing what to say.
There was the sudden silence that didn't seem right to Noah and Jake as the older three looked so serious and the one younger guy seemed so aloof.
Noah looked at Jake as if asking what to do, but Jake was even more clueless than Noah.
Finally, Noah spoke, "I never asked, but I was always curious about you three."
"Us?" An Tian asked, and the other two looked at Noah.
Their sights were intimidating for Noah, and he added, "Not just me but Jake too," he looked at Jake, "Right?"
Jake nodded, and Noah gave out a sigh of relief.
"What do you want to know?" An Tian asked.
"About three of your love life," Noah replied.
"There is nothing special about mine," Jiang Yang looked unwilling to talk about it, "But you can ask these two."
Lu Feng and An Tian glared at Jiang Yang. It didn't affect Jiang Yang, and he spoke, looking at Noah and Jake, "About mine, you guys already know it didn't work out, and we broke up. Now you can ask them."
"Looks like he is drunk," Lu Feng mumbled to An Tian.
"Would you mind if I beat him?" An Tian asked.
"Go ahead," said Lu Feng in a low voice.
Ignoring these three, Noah asked, "Brother Tian, what kind of woman would you like to date?"
"I don't date," came the reply from a mysterious guy, An Tian, as he sipped the drink. His eyes carried something difficult to understand.
"Why?" this time, Jake asked.
An Tian was his brother, so Jake didn't mind questioning him. Moreover, An Tian always stepped over Jake's privacy by knowing the things about him so easily.
"Just not my cup of tea," An Tian replied.
"Don't tell me you never dated anyone," Jake asked, and An Tian nodded, "I never did."
It was a surprising thing for the younger two.
"The kind of woman who can handle An Tian is yet to be born," Lu Feng spoke.
"I thought brother Tian is easy to be with," Noah commented.
"Don't believe what he shows you," Jiang Yang added.
An Tian was always so easy going and comforting, but there was more to him that hardly anyone knew.
Noah and Jake looked at An Tian, but before they could ask anything, An Tian interrupted the train of thoughts in their minds.
"These two are drunk and talking bullshit; ignore them," An Tian commented.
Jiang Yang and Lu Feng glared at him and then looked at each other.
"When it comes to him, he is so secretive but loves to expose others," Jiang Yang said to Lu Feng.
Lu Feng agreed, "Hypocrite friend we have."
"I can hear you two," An Tian interrupted them.
"So what?" Lu Feng gave him a challenging look.
"Nothing, I just want them to know about your interesting life," An Tian replied with the same challenging glare.
"Right, we want to know about brother Feng," Noah interrupted, sensing how these friends were in war mode.
"There is nothing," Lu Feng replied coldly.
"Then at least tell us, someone you ever liked. It can't be possible not to like anyone ever," Noah insisted.
Lu Lijun, who silently listened to everything till now, suddenly his ears turned more attentive, and he waited for Lu Feng to talk about it.
"She is a good person that anyone would like to be with," Lu Feng replied.
"We are listening?" Noah said, intending to hear more.
"She loved someone else and was happy," Lu Feng added.
"Does she know?" Jake asked.
Lu Feng nodded, "Hmm!"
"Then?"
"We are good friends, and we are happy like that."
"But I would have been happy if you two were together," suddenly Jiang Yang spoke.
Fl.u.s.tered, Lu Feng looked at Lu Lijun, who stood facing his back towards him, and then looked at Jiang Yang, feeling scared that he would say something dangerous.
"It's good that you moved on," Jiang Yang said, and Lu Feng gave out a sigh of relief.
Lu Lijun, who heard it, didn't know what to think about it and continued to be silent.
