Once Lu Lijun ca out of Noah’s room, he saw the five n preparing lunch. Looking at them, Lu Lijun imagined Lu Qiang being there with them and smiled.
He could see his brother working in the kitchen as he talked with his friends. A pleasant smile painted on Lu Lijun’s lips as he rembered the days when Lu Qiang used to cook for him once in a while.
Observing his brother among others, Lu Lijun saw his brother looking at him, smiling and asking him to co to help him. It felt so real that he stepped towards the kitchen subconsciously, but sothing disturbed this pleasant view in front of him as An Tian called him.
"Lu Lijun."
The image in front of him disappeared, and Lu Lijun looked disappointed.
"You can sit. We will do it," An Tian added, as he noticed Lu Lijun was thinking about sothing.
Lu Feng brought the stool that was high to the kitchen counter, "Sit on this."
Lu Lijun did so, and from there, he could see everything happening in the kitchen and be around closer to them.
The dinner was soon ready, and the only thing left was to arrange it on the dining table.
"Lu Lijun, co with . I need your help," said An Tian, and Lu Lijun stood up.
Others didn’t ask where they were going.
"You guys carry on; we would be back soon," An Tian instructed.
Both went out of the ho as Lu Lijun followed An Tian. Once they stepped out of the gate, Lu Lijun asked, "Where are we going?"
"Supermarket. It’s nearby, so no need to get a car," An Tian inford.
As they stepped ahead a bit more, An Tian asked, "Did you want to talk to about sothing?"
While walking along, Lu Lijun stayed silent for a mont, not knowing what to talk about.
"Not sure what it is," said Lu Lijun.
"Hmm, whatever it is, just try to say."
"It feels like suddenly sothing suffocates , and I want to run away from it," Lu Lijun spoke.
"What exactly happened today to make you feel like it?" An Tian asked.
Lu Lijun looked at the other side as he avoided looking at An Tain, "Don’t know."
"Don’t know, or you don’t want to know?" An Tian asked.
Lu Lijun stayed silent for a while and mumbled sothing, "I..hate..it."
An Tian heard it and understood what was happening with him as he said, "Sotis it’s better to accept the reality, instead of running away from it."
"Reality?"
An Tian nodded, "What you feel and what’s the reason for it."
Lu Lijun looked at him.
An Tian looked back at Lu Lijun as he spoke while staring in his puzzled eyes, "You need to find an answer yourself."
"I don’t think there is anything to know or find about," Lu Lijun countered. He sounded confident, but inside, that confidence was crushing slowly, which he tried to hide.
An Tian smiled lightly, "You can take your ti. When you are ready, I’m always here to listen," An Tian assured.
The two returned ho, An Tian carrying liquor and soft drink bottles as Lu Lijun carried the juice packs. Others were waiting for them to return.
"We already bought it. It seems like not enough for you, An Tian," Jiang Yang comnted, looking at the bag in An Tian’s hands.
"More the rrier," An Tian replied.
Jiang Yang looked at the juice packs in Lu Lijun’s hands, "Our little one can only have juice."
"It’s healthy," Lu Feng comnted.
"Then why don’t you get it too?"
"I’m healthy enough," Lu Feng countered as he took one juice pack from Lu Lijun and opened the lid.
"Yeah, I know as you...Ummm..."
Lu Feng shut Jiang Yang’s mouth by putting a juice pack in his lips, "Drink it."
Jiang Yang held the juice pack and had a sip as he smiled mischievously, "You don’t want to talk, huh?"
Other’s looked at these two. An Tian knew what was going on while the other three gave a questioning look to Lu Feng.
"What?" Lu Feng asked coldly, sensing those doubtful gazes.
The way he said it, the three shook their heads as if saying nothing and looked the other way.
Lu Feng stepped towards the dining table, "Let’s have dinner."
"Seems like there is sothing brother Lu Feng is hiding," Noah whispered to his friends.
Jake nodded while Lu Lijun spoke, "Don’t ss with him."
"I don’t have a death wish. I just wonder if he has soone special in his life and if it is, then what’s to hide about it?" said Noah.
This reminded Lu Lijun of sothing from the past, but he didn’t want to think about it. For him, Lu Feng was his elder brother who loved him a lot, and nothing could co in between them.
The three heard An Tian calling them. "If you three don’t want to eat, you are free to leave."
The three imdiately went to the dining table.
The dinner finished silently while talking about things and freshening up the silent guy, Lu Lijun’s mood.
As usual, they went to the terrace to drink and have a nice chat. Everyone, except for Lu Lijun, had liquor bottles in their hands.
Lu Feng passed him a soft drink bottle. Sitting in the chairs arranged in a circle around the round table, they started drinking.
"Isn’t it the first ti for Jake to drink with us?" Lu Feng asked.
An Tian nodded while Jake spoke, "Till now, I thought to respect my older brother by not drinking in front of him."
"I’m fortunate his highness gives importance to this elder brother," An Tian smirked and continued, "I thought you suddenly stopped drinking due to so reason."
This made Jake gulped, and Lu Lijun looked at him as their sights t.
An Tian looked at Noah, "Do you know why he stopped drinking, Noah?"
Noah shook his head, "I don’t."
"I’m sure Lu Lijun knows it," An Tian spoke.
Lu Lijun didn’t look affected as he said, "Not sure."
Jake’s sight passed his friends. Lu Lijun looked like it didn’t concern him, while Noah looked like he didn’t know what they were talking about.
