Kapitel 7: You thought I didn't know?
"Heh, sorry bro, I was dazed just now and forgot about it…." She tried to save the situation and stuffed toast into her mouth to avoid being asked questions, at the same time waiting to see what Yun Jifeng would pick.
That damn Yun Xuan! How could she forget to tell her such an important thing?! She was literally one step away from being discovered!
One step, really?
'Xuanxuan is allergic to citrus fruits' thought Yun Jifeng, who had a weird expression on his face.
Wan Jia pretended not to notice his gaze as she tried hard to stabilize her heart while sipping her freshly squeezed orange juice. 'From the way he's staring at me, his sister is probably allergic to orange juice. Or maybe she just dislikes it? What to do, what to do…'
An idea striked her and she ran to her room only to come back with two 'unnoticed' red dots on her arms while she scratched her other hand with a pitiful expression. Her idea was to gamble that it was an allergy, which seemed to work, considering Yun Jifeng's expression.
"Who told you to take orange juice, huh? Look at your skin, you're soon going to be as ugly as a frog."
She pouted like a spoilt little girl and rubbed off nonexistent tears as she wondered why on earth Yun Xuan was not replying to her messages. How could she just vanish and leave her in this mess? Was she not worried of what would happen if she did too many wrong things and exposed herself?
Yun Jifeng's next sentence almost made her knees give way.
"You should learn Xuanxuan's likes and dislikes faster or else father will instantly see through your little ploy." He smirked at Wan Jia's current facial expression; her beautiful eyes were so wide with shock he almost laughed aloud. "Heh, what? You thought I wouldn't know? Of course I know my sister. Don't worry. You can relax around me. I wondered what my sister was up to but since it came to having such a beautiful substitute then I'll show my support."
"Eer…." he was not trying to flirt, right?
"Come here, let Old Two take a look." He deliberately emphasized "Old two". Wan Jia would be an idiot if she did not understand his meaning.
___
Lu family home.
Lu Tongyan was currently nagging his eldest son for the umpteenth time that day.
"Aotian, when did you say you were going to propose to my future daughter-in-law?"
Lu Aotian furrowed his brows. Hadn't they talked about this one hour ago, and even agreed to visit the Yun Family the next weekend? Did the old man start having memory lapse?
"Cough, I'm just too excited. This old man is just quite lonely. You boys are always so busy with your jobs and no one wants to spend time with me."
No matter how much time we make to spend with you, you still complain, he thought.
Lu Aotian was the current president of Lu Enterprise, the most powerful and influential organization in the capital, running subsidiary companies in uncountable industries. The Lu family also held immense power in the underworld. The current president, Lu Aotian, was thought to be as cold and aloof as most CEOs. However, only those very close to him knew the story behind his cold appearance.
Born into such a rich family, he had been the envy of most boys his age until his parents suddenly had a divorce after Mrs. Lu was discovered to have been cheating on her husband with his elder brother, and Lu Tongyan's second son was suddenly found out to be his elder brother's son. This incident caused an uproar in the Lu family and hence began a feud between brothers. That was until Lu Tongyan's ex wife and his brother had an accident and passed on, leaving behind the five year old innocent and clueless Lu Shaoting, who Lu Tongyan adopted and brought up entirely like a son, out of respect and love for his late brother and late ex wife. However, it was not easy for the seven year old Lu Aotian to understand why his mother suddenly abandoned him and his father to become his uncle's wife and why the younger brother he adored so much suddenly became his 'half-brother-half-cousin'
He despised his mother even after her demise and grew up avoiding girls, until he met Mo Zilian, who he loved and dated for over three years. However, as fate would have it, it turned out Mo Zilian was only a part of a scheme by an enemy of the Lu Family. Her mission had been to kill Lu Aotian's grandfather. What was worse than losing two of the few people you value? What more if one of them was schemed against and killed by the other. It was this incident that caused Lu Aotian to shut himself from the world and trust no one, including his father and younger brother who were the only relatives he had left.
...
Presently, his father had already agreed with General Yun to have him marry his daughter, Yun Xuan. Perhaps it was time to put the pat behind?
