Chapter 820 Swift Goodbye
The days had passed in harmony.
It was time for Lu Yin Ze to return to the company. The one-week recuperation that the doctor gave him had been used up.
Lu Yin Ze was full of regret.
If he had known beforehand that he would meet his brother, Lu Yin Ze should not have rejected the doctor's suggestion of resting for two weeks.
He regretted it. But since the people in the company and the elders in other branches of the Lu family were waiting for his return, he did not delay. He would just finish the succession ceremony early and focused on finishing the matters at the empire. Then he could go back to L province and spend time with his brother.
He planned to temporarily transfer his office to L province. With that, he could spend time with his brother while also working.
After a week of paradise, Lu Yin Ze had left.
But not before looking at his brother pitifully.
"Brother, I will work hard to raise you. I have been thinking about it for the past few days. As I said, you have sacrificed so much. If I handed the company and the family to you, you will have to work all over again. This time, leave it to me. I will raise you and fatten you up!"
Lu Jin was amused. His original pale lips due to low blood were now a healthy color. His smile was vibrant and joyful. If Xuyue and Mr. Kang had seen the current Lu Jin, they would not recognize him.
Their boss had never smiled or laughed at all.
Lu Jin nodded with an amused smile. "Alright, I will depend on you then."
Lu Yin Ze was happy.
Ever since his brother lived with him, he rarely got a nightmare. And if he did, he would wake up and go in front of his brother's door anxiously. Knowing that his brother was still alive and well and sleeping beside his bedroom, Lu Yin Ze calmed down a lot.
Perhaps due to his big brother's past, he always left the door slightly open. Glancing at the room inside and seeing the bed was occupied, Lu Yin Ze would sigh in relief.
Right. There's no need to be afraid anymore. His brother was with him. The nightmares could not happen. His brother had always protected him. This time, he should protect him and provide for him.
This world did not abandon him. He could still live happily despite the nightmares and tragedy.
It's alright, he still had his brother.
This mantra was repeated over and over until Lu Yin Ze fall asleep.
He would go back to his room and sleep peacefully. And when he woke up, he would meet his brother at the breakfast table who was smiling gently at him.
The darkness inside Lu Yin Ze and the helpless feeling about living aimlessly was washed away by his brother's presence and warm mile. He was glad his brother was at his side.
So Lu Yin Ze left the Lu province with conviction in his heart. He would come back here soon and protect his brother.
....
When the helicopter left, Lu Jin who was looking at the departing helicopter revealed helplessness in his warm smile. His dark obsidian eyes that were shining brightly slightly turned blurry.
The warmth and happiness he exuded were replaced by longing, sadness, and heaviness.
Lu Jin could only stare at the small dot in the sky. He wished he could fly and hug his brother once more. But he could only utter a whisper. "Goodbye, Little Yin."
Lu Jin had never thought that goodbyes could be this painful and difficult.
At this moment, Lu Jin's phone rang. It was the phone that Linfeng provided for Lu Jin.
He accepted the call. The complex feelings and warm aura instantly vanished. His figure become desolate, and his cold face returned.
"It's time. Have you said goodbye?" Linfeng voice came.
Lu Jin looked at the disappearing dot in the sky. His heart was heavy but at the same time had never been this light.
"Yes."
"Alright. I'll be there."
Linfeng arrived in an hour. The helicopter was waiting at the side.
Lu Jin looked at the mansion where he had spent a blissful week. It turned out happiness was so overwhelming and addicting. It was hard for him to be separated from it. But he had done it once, he could do it again.
As the helicopter rose, Lu Jin looked at the mountain regretfully. Linfeng glanced at him. He could see that this past week made the Lu Jin he knew change dramatically.
Although he still appeared threatening and cold, some bits of emotions were sleeping through from this man.
Lu Jin would also reveal some emotions on his face. Linfeng withdrew his gaze. It must have cost great courage for Lu Jin to not run away.
...
The ride arrived at a tall building in the busy capital.
There were many police officers waiting for them on the rooftop. Several people with high positions in the Department of Justice, National Bureau, and representatives of the Federal Bureau were also waiting for them.
Just by the number of people and the authorities that gathered, it could tell how important the arriving person was. He was either a notorious criminal that was wanted all over the world or a witness that had to be interrogated and protected by several high-profile people.
When Lu Jin got off, he was immediately surrounded by armed officers. Their gazes were not kind. If Lu Jin made one wrong step, these people would undoubtedly pull the trigger. Their strong murderous intent was apparent.
It was clear as the sky that the majority of the people here hated Ming Zhi Yi's eldest son and his right-hand man.
In the face of such gaze, Lu Jin remained still with a cold expression.
It was Linfeng who glanced at the armed officers meaningfully.
The armed officers halted. The gaze from the suited man made it difficult for them to breathe.
Linfeng actually released qigong. He spoke with a heavy voice. "We came here for peace. The alleged suspect has come here of his own volition. He is also an important witness and the whistleblower in Ming Zhi Yi's case." Linfeng looked at the uniformed man who had the highest position among the armed forces here. "Please treat him well."
The Chief of Police looked at the officers behind. "Stepped back." He then took the cuffs from one of the officers personally and approached Linfeng and Lu Jin. He spoke to Linfeng in a low voice that only the two of them could hear.
"Even though I want to treat him well, he is still a criminal who assisted Ming Zhi Yi. You know how heavy his crime is. Some of my men here have relatives who died at the crossfire due to Ming Zhi Yi's underground organization and some have to face the deaths of their friends after Ming Zhi Yi's massacre. Please understand their feelings as well." The chief stepped back. "My men are just taking precautions. Especially-" The chief glanced at Lu Jin who was now looking at him. He swallowed heavily. This was the man who brought down his own father. The powerful Ming Zhi Yi was destroyed because of this man.
"-Especially this man is a great master like yourself."
