Lu Lijun went towards the silent place away from the crowd as there was ti to start the ceremony.
Just as he thought, he would be alone for a while and no one would disturb him, soone called him.
"Lu Lijun!"
Lu Lijun recognized the voice and turned to look at the person in surprise. He thought he heard it wrong for a mont but seeing the person, he realized he heard it right.
In a black suit, the handso man, carrying a flower bouquet in hands, stood at a distance, looking at Lu Lijun as he smiled pleasantly.
"Brother, Lu Feng," Lu Lijun mumbled.
Lu Lijun didn’t want to show he was happy but couldn’t hide it. A light smile painted on his lips, and his eyes turned bright in a reflex of a sudden pleasant surprise.
Lu Feng stepped towards him as he passed him a bouquet, "Congratulations, Lu Lijun."
Lu Liijun accepted it, "Thank you, elder brother."
"Don’t tell you didn’t expect to see here today," Lu Feng comnted, but Lu Lijun didn’t reply.
His silence was enough for Lu Feng to understand what his brother thought, and he was right; Lu Lijun expected his brother to show up.
Lu Feng was the only person in the family who dared to et Lu Lijun frequently even after Lu Lijun didn’t wish to et anyone. Lu Feng always found so excuse to be in England, whether under the na of so business matter or sotis he just ca to see Lu Lijun on a few special occasions like his birthday every year or when he graduated from the school.
Though Lu Lijun didn’t want to et anyone, he liked it whenever Lu Feng ca to see him and couldn’t ask him not to co. Later it turned out like Lu Lijun started to wait for his brother when there was any special occasion.
On the day of graduating from the university, Lu Lijun already expected Lu Feng to show up, but till the last mont, there was no news from his brother, so almost thought Lu Feng won’t co but still had so hope left in the heart.
"Your brother is not the only one. We are here to wish you too," ca the familiar cheerful voice that Lu Lijun didn’t hear in years and looked at the person.
Jiang Yang and An Tian were standing there looking at the two brothers and letting them be for a while, standing as the spectator as they watched the brothers’ reunion. Both dressed in suits as it was a special day for young lads.
Lu Lijun was surprised this ti for real as never in his dream he thought that Jiang Yang would be there while eting An Tian was nothing new for him.
"Brother, Yang," said Lu Lijun.
Lu Lijun didn’t know how to react as Jiang Yang reminded him of soone he never forgot and almost thought Jiang Yuyan would be there too. With the thought of seeing her after so long, Lu Lijun’s heart started to beat faster, and his sight searched for a certain soone.
Jiang Yang’s comnt snapped Lu Lijun out from his thoughts. There was no one else who he should expect, and it disappointed him.
"Isn’t it given as he took after his two handso brothers. Blood of the Lus carries special genes that make these n deadly handso," An Tian comnted, and Jiang Yang agreed.
Lu Lijun didn’t know how to react to the exaggerating talk from these friends.
"Ignore them, Lu Lijun," Lu Feng suggested, and the other two gave him a narrowed eyes look.
"Don’t be so proud, Lu Feng, as you know you are handso," An Tian comnted, and Jiang Yang joined him.
"My darling loves to flex his beauty, but when we praise him, he acts all haughty."
Lu Feng sighed as he pinched the bridge of his nose, "Now I am regretting bringing you two here."
"Who brought whom here? I am here with An Tian," Jiang Yang countered.
"Right, don’t give yourself this much importance, Lu Feng," An Tian added as these three continued to argue further, and no one was ready to back down.
When these three old friends were mocking each other, the two young guys, Jake and Noah, joined Lu Lijun in witnessing this funny scenario and smiled hearing the conversation of these overly grown-up n or maybe a bit older n.
"Are they always like this?" Jake asked curiously as he smiled.
"Don’t ask. They are worse than us three," Lu Lijun replied.
"That’s interesting," said Noad as he waited to hear more funny and sarcastic mocking from three old friends.
Finally, they stopped arguing as Jiang Yang noticed Jake and Noah, "Lu Lijun, won’t you introduce to your friends?"
Lu Lijun nodded as he signaled towards his two friends, "Jake and Noah," and further told his friends about Jiang Yang, "He is....."
"I am his one more handso brother, Jiang Yang," Jiang interrupted as he cheerfully introduced himself.
"Doctor Jiang Yang?" Jake asked.
"Hmm! It seems like your brother already told you," Jiang Yang comnted as he looked at An Tian and smiled.
"Why do I feel like I saw you sowhere," Noah said as he thought about sothing and observed Jiang Yang and mumbled, "That portrait...."
"Cough-Cough!"
Lu Lijun coughed loudly, which interrupted Noah while Lu Feng patted his back, "Are you fine, Lu Lijun?"
"Cough!" Lu Lijun nodded as he thought how to shut Noah’s mouth and felt like kicking him at the mont, but just then, Jake turned into the savior for Lu Lijun.
"He is a famous surgeon, and you can see him everywhere on the internet. Now let’s go, the ceremony is about to start," Jake instructed, and everyone agreed.
Giving out a sigh of relief, Lu Lijun stepped ahead to lead everyone’s way towards the guest area before Noah could say sothing shocking.
When they stepped ahead, Noah and Jake followed as Noah mumbled, "I am sure he looks familiar and that portrait...."
"For god’s sake, shut your mouth, Noah. Don’t ntion anything about those portraits," warned Jake in a low voice that only Noah could hear.
"Then you should tell what it is."
"I, too, don’t know. Just keep in mind that Lu Lijun might not want to talk about it, and being his friends, we should protect his things," Jake suggested, and Noah agreed. "My bad."
Lu Feng and Jiang Yang t Jake and Noah’s parents. Lu Feng had t them before, but it was Jiang Yang’s first ti there. A few years back, when Jiang Yang got to know An Tian was a prince, he was shocked while Lu Feng already knew it for long, just like Lu Qiang.
When Lu Feng planned to visit Lu Lijun, he thought to take Jiang Yang with him as it would be a nice break for one busy surgeon who only worked his ass off for the years and never bothered to take a break.
Jiang Yang agreed because, just like Lu Feng, he too wished to fill Lu Qiang’s place by attending the important day for Lu Lijun.
An Tain had already planned to co to England, not just for his brother Jake but also for Lu Lijun and Noah. He, too, wished to be present for Lu Lijun so that he won’t miss his brother.
Also, for Noah, because Noah considered An Tian like an elder brother after crying over not having ones like his two friends Jake and Lu Lijun.

In Lu Mansion...
Jiang Yuyan got freshen up and went downstairs to join the family. Elder Lu signaled her to sit beside him on the sofa as they sat exactly in front of the huge television screen in the living room.
Elder Lu and Ning Jiahui were sad that they couldn’t see Lu Lijun on this special day, so Lu Jinhai arranged it for them. His assistant Xiao Dong asked San Zemin to get his n ready to capture everything from the university’s convocation ceremony, and San Zemin’s n were ready to do so.
With each passing mont, elder Lu turned impatient as he exclaid, "When would I be able to see my grandson? What are those people doing there with caras? I am not sitting here to see so random faces."
Elder Lu sounded angry as on the screen, he could only see other students and their families while Lu Lijun was nowhere.
"Calm down, father. He must not be there yet," Lu Jinhai suggested.
"Or your n are just useless, huh? Call them right away," Elder Lu instructed in a high tone, and others sat quietly as they could see soone would get scolded now.
Just as Lu Jinhai dialed Xiao Dong’s contact number, he heard his father, "Let talk to him."
Lu Jinhai passed his cellphone to his father as he pitied Xiao Dong, who would get earful soon from his angry father.
"Yes, Mr. Chairman," said Xiao Dong.
"I am Mr. Chairman’s father," elder Lu said as it shocked Xiao Dong.
"E-elder Lu! How can I help you?" Xiao Dong asked.
"If you do your work properly, only that much would be enough," ca the sarcastic reply from the sulking old man.
"Yes," Xiao Dong said.
He couldn’t understand what wrong he did and waited for elder Lu to say sothing as he couldn’t dare to ask what he did wrong.
"Would I be able to see my grandson only after my death?" Elder Lu asked, and just like Lu Jinhai, others too pitied Xiao Dong.
