Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

Getting out of the lounge and calming herself, Jiang Yuyan went to the meeting room where the heads of various departments were already present and waited for Lu Lijun to arrive there. She believed he was fine and could attend the meeting with a clear mind.

Soon after, Lu Lijun entered the meeting room as Noah followed him. Jiang Yuyan looked at him, and he looked fine that how he looked a while ago when she left him alone in the lounge, unstable and chaotic with his haywire thoughts.

"Good Morning!"

Lu Lijun greeted everyone and straight went towards the projector screen to present the progress of the work as Noah handled the documents and other parts.

Lu Lijun's sight met with Jiang Yuyan's sight, but there was nothing in his sight other than showing that in this meeting room, she was only President Lu for him and not what he claimed her to be.

Jiang Yuyan was relieved to see his professionalism once again. She was sure by now; he would never mess up with his work, whatever situation he was in. Since he returned and joined the Lu Corporation, this was the only stable quality about him- dedication towards the work, and it was really something to be admired about him given how young he was.

Jiang Yuyan focussed on the presentation he started and how professionally and seriously he was doing it as usual. Unknown to her, her sight fixed at him, admiring his every move. What was in him that captured her mind was unknown to her?

Just then, her mind wandered towards what he did and said to her in the lounge. A shiver passed across her spine, and goosebumps appeared on her skin delicate white skin.

"President Lu!"

This calling pulled Jiang Yuyan out of her thought, and she looked at Lu Lijun attentively, who had just called for her.

"Yes?" She asked calmly.

"I would like to know president Lu's opinion!" Lu Lijun replied.

Jiang Yuyan was one professional woman too, and she was mastered in maintaining it.

"What Lu Corporation and the other partner is capable of only it won't be enough. Other companies had tried the same thing before, but the progress was slow due to not much support, and they ended up diverting it to the cities. But their bases are still there. It would be better if we use those base and already available resources than creating the new ones. It would be faster that way. Given how big this project is and covering everything on our own wouldn't be that easy. Using those resources will help reduce the time. Also, we can use their experiences with success and failures to our aid."

Everyone agreed to it.

Lu Lijun looked at Noah, and Noah passed the bunch of papers to everyone.

"We have collected the information about such companies and their failed attempts. The list is there, and the first five in the list look more suitable as each of them covers the different regions, which gives us widespread exposure on combining them together. Either we can add them as small-scale partners with low percent, or we can directly buy it and get the control over everything," Lu Lijun explained.

Jiang Yuyan accepted one paper and smiled lightly, which no one noticed but Lu Lijun. 'So he was already prepared with it,' she thought.

From that light smile on her lips, Lu Lijun understood she was satisfied with his thoughts about this project.

"Which way would you prefer?" Jiang Yuyan asked.

"Taking control entirely by offering a good deal, but still keeping partner with more percent of share in our side. We can use their experience and make them work the way we want. The ones we had selected, given their conditions, it wouldn't be difficult. "

Jiang Yuyan nodded, approving to it. There was nothing that slipped from his brain, and she was sure, even if she was not around, he would handle everything perfectly. What a relief!

Soon the meeting was over with Lu Lijun getting positive feedback about his work and Jiang Yuyan could only feel more proud about him.

After the meeting, when Lu Lijun returned to his office with Noah, he was only ready to do more work.

When Lu Lijun returned from Jiang Yuyan's office before the meeting would start, Noah could see something was not right with his friend but at that time he didn't question because of the meeting time.

Noah sat in the chair and looked at the serious-looking guy, "Are you possessed with workaholism or what?"

"It's better than getting possessed with something else," Lu Lijun replied.

Noah raised his eyebrow in question, "Something else?"

"Just like how you avoid getting possessed with something by running to Nicole all the time," Lu Lijun answered that left Noah speechless.

"I am only possessed by the beauty of Nicole so it's obvious to go there," Noah said after taking a long pause.

"I don't have time to hear your lies. Get back to work," Lu Lijun replied coldly.

"Why are you acting like you are in heat? So cold and irritated?" Noah asked.

Lu Lijun glared at him, "Yes, I am. Are you willing to solve my problem by helping me? Only make sure his highness won't kill me after that."

"Didn't you go to President Lu just now?" Noah teased, willing to change the topic.

Lu Lijun closed his eyes as he sighed and pressed his temples, "That is what made it worse."

It was surprising for Noah that instead of countering his teasing, Lu Lijun accepted it. "Don't tell me..you…tried to do…." Noah couldn't come up to say anything clearly.

Lu Lijun could sigh as he sat the same way, holding his head and running his fingers through his hair.

Noah stood up and went on Lu Lijun's side as he held his chin and made Lu Lijun look at him.

With tired and annoyed sight, Lu Lijun looked at him and was about to ask what he was doing but then heard Noah as he he observed Lu Lijun's cheek.

"No fingers printed on your face," Noah mumbled, "That means everything is fine."

Lu Lijun shrugged Noah's hand from his chin only to hear Noah again, "Seems like your persistence is working."

"Not sure!" Lu Lijun said and resumed his work.

———-

After taking a day off, Lu Lian went to her office with the expectations of not seeing that man's face who she despised the most at this moment. But to her dismay, the moment she went towards the VIP elevator, Ming Rusheng and his assistant were already waiting for it.

Just as she reached there, she froze and wished to turn around not willing to see him, someone had already noticed her.

"Good Morning, Ms. Lu," Ming Rusheng's assistant bowed.

It caught Ming Rusheng's attention, and he turned to look at Lu Lian. Only he knew how relieved he felt to see her fine and back in the office.

Lu Lian accepted assistant's greeting with a light nod.

Unwillingly she looked at Ming Rusheng for a fraction of second and greeted hm, "Good Morning, Mr. Ming."

Though she was angry with him, it was her personal matter while she couldn't not disregard his position in his office by not greeting him in front of his employee.

"Morning!" Ming Rusheng said, and just then elevator's door opened.

Ming Rusheng stepped inside while his assistant gestured Lu Lian to step inside first, "Ms. Lu, please."

Lu Lian had no other option to get inside.

The assistant didn't follow inside and said to his boss, "I forgot important file in the car. I will be back soon."

The elevator door was closed and only Ming Rusheng and Lu Lian were inside in the small and closed place.

Lu Lian could only count moments to get out of it as fast as she could and heard him, "Are you fine?"

"Doesn't concern Mr. Ming," she said.

"I was worried for you."

"Not my concern."

"Will you give me a chance to explain and…"

Lu Lian turned to look at Ming Rusheng as she spoked with her greeted teeth, "If not for work, I wouldn't have step inside this building. If you wish me to not leave my work half done, then stay away from me. No more talk other than the work."

Ming Rusheng calmly looked at her and said, "Understood."

There was no further talk between them. As they were at the work place and having argument this place was not good, Ming Rusheng decided to step back. Moreover it was her right to show her anger to him and didn't wish to take it away from her. All he could do was to be patient and wait for her to calm down.
