Chapter 818 Making up for the Lost Time
Lu Yin Ze arranged everything for his brother Lu Jin. Since they were still in mourning, the two decided to stay in the mansion in the L province. With this, even they finished the funeral rites of their grandfather, they could still accompany him these days.
Furthermore, Lu Jin could not be seen by others at this moment. The perfect place for him to hide from the public and from authorities was in the L province.
Tang Yin did not meddle with the two brothers and decided to go to the capital. Her mission here was done. Lu Yin Ze seemed a lot better with Lu Jin at his side.
Lu Jin stared at his brother who was sending off Tang Yin.
The sight of his brother being taken care of by his friends made Lu Jin at ease at heart.
So even he was gone....his brother would have people who would stay at his side.
It looked like he had to trouble Lu Yin Ze's friends again.
The two brothers spend time together most of the day. They talked about the past and their childhood. Lu Jin has many interesting questions about Lu Yin Ze's life.
Such as his progress in working in the Lu empire, his friends, his daily activities, and such. Lu Yin Ze shared only the good things with his brother.
Lu Jin listened with a smile. Throughout this story-telling, he did not open up the stories about himself or his way of living before. After all, the time he spent on Ming Zhi Yi's side was dark and bloody. There was not a single happy moment. Lu Yin Ze's story was enough for Lu Jin. As long as his brother was happy, Lu Jin would be content in his life. After spending time under his father, he had long ago hidden and buried any of his desires.
If there's one thing that Lu Jin was having difficulties in burying, that would be his desire to spend time with his brother and live beside Lu Yin Ze leisurely without worries.
However, as a sinner that would be a pipe dream.
But Lu Jin wanted to be selfish once. He wanted to leave the world and the tragic past behind. He only wanted to spend this moment with his brother happily and act like his big brother which he wasn't able to do in the past decade.
"-Then we are locked in the garden together. At that time, we dislike each other the most. Being in the same space with her was torture. In the end, we don't have a choice but to talk about certain things. Perhaps that time, we slightly get to know each other better."
Lu Yin Ze's tone had a hint of a smile as he told his experience in the garden with Tang Yin. His brother was currently interested in his friends and how they treat each other. So he told a lot of stories about his time with his friends.
Lu Jin was amused. "But that person is the one who stayed and accompany you throughout the day and night. She must have placed you dearly in her heart."
Lu Yin Ze looked at his brother in disbelief. "How could you come up with that conclusion, brother? We are clearly friends, alright? And we just recently become friends."
Lu Jin raised his dark eyebrow in mirth. The way Lu Yin Ze looked at him in disbelief was comical. This made him want to tease him more.
"Are you sure you guys are just friends? A girl who volunteered to stay at a guy's house is definitely worth questioning. Perhaps for her, you guys aren't just friends."
Lu Yin Ze had goosebumps at his brother's conjecture.
"Brother, don't speak so thoughtlessly. The two of us are not going in that way. Tang Yin is the only one idle among them and was majority agreed to accompany me at that time. My friends are just worried about me. Besides, Tang Yin is not interested in me. She already had someone in her heart."
Lu Jin chuckled at his brother's obvious denial.
"Alright, alright. I know you are interested in that Xiong lady."
Lu Yin Ze froze. "...H-how did you know, brother? Did you stalk me?"
Lu Jin shook his head while smiling. "I do not need to stalk your everyday life or investigate you to figure things out. Do you remember the last birthday I attended? That time, even I am far away, I could see how your eyes never left her as she walked towards you. You were looking at her like she was your bride and you are the groom waiting for her at the altar." Lu Yi Ze: !!!
"I-I did not look like that! I was definitely not thinking that way!"
However, his red face said it all.
Lu Jin just laughed. Teasing his brother was fun.
Despite decades had passed, his brother did not change. Aside from becoming stronger inwardly, he was still the same as before when he was a child. Easy to get teased, a cry baby, and very transparent. ...
The two brothers spend time chatting. They were greedily enjoying the time they currently have.
These days, ever since coming to L province, Lu Jin frequently smiled. He felt like he was living in a dream. As if the tragedy had never happened, and they returned to the time that he was only a big brother who was obsessive of his brother's safety. In the middle of chatting, Lu Yin Ze remembered something. He sighed heavily.
"Why the sigh?" Lu Jin asked gently with a smile.
Lu Yin Ze was also like a child in the face of his brother. He was like a six-year-old pouting.
"The ceremony will be in a few days."
Lu Yin Ze's 'recuperation' of one week was about to end. He had to return to the capital and to the company. He would undergo the ceremony of becoming the new head of the family and the business empire.
Before he was reunited with his brother, he wanted to hurry the succession and handle the business. Only when his mind was occupied by work would he be able to recover from his sadness.
But now his brother was currently by his side. He only wanted to spend his time with his brother.
