MY BROTHER IN-LAW TURN HUSBAND, VOLUME 5 - Season 11 Episode 61

When the office hours were about to finish, Jiang Yuyan instructed Xiao Min again.

“Take this file to Lu Lijun and ask him to finish it today. We need it for tomorrow morning’s meeting. He can’t leave the office until he finishes it.”

Xiao Min nodded. All he did till now was to send files to Lu Lijun, and he was worried if Jiang Yuyan wanted to keep him busy and tire him to his bone.

Lu Lijun had plans for the evening but didn’t know President Lu was up to ruin his plans.

Xiao Min entered Lu Lijun’s office, where he talked to Noah, “We can finish it even before a week.”

Noah agreed, and the two looked at Xiao Min, who entered the office after knocking lightly on the door.

“We need this file ready for tomorrow’s early morning meeting,” Xiao Min kept it on the table.

Lu Lijun accepted the file, looked through it, and assured, “It would be ready.”

Saying he put the file back and stood up to leave.

“Boss said the fourth young master couldn’t leave the office until this file is ready,” Xiao Min informed.

“Your boss will get it ready in hand by the morning,” Lu Lijun countered.

Xiao Min didn’t budge as he knew Lu Lijun was up to something, and he needed to hold him back in the office.

“It would be better if the fourth young master would start working on it right away.”

“Xiao Min, is your boss trying to force me into it?” Lu Lijun asked.

“Boss just wants a fourth young master to finish important work first,” Xiao Min replied calmly. He was not affected if Lu Lijun felt annoyed with it.

“Understood.” Saying, Lu Lijun stepped towards the door.

“Fourth young master,” Xiao Min called.

“I hope your boss didn’t ask you to lock me up here,” Lu Lijun commented and left while Xiao Min couldn’t stop him.

Lu Lijun went to Jiang Yuyan’s office straight away, and he opened the door even without knocking on it.

Jiang Yuyan was busy working and thought Xiao Min returned as no one could dare to enter her office without even knocking on it.

“Prepare for Lu Lijun to leave for France,” Jiang Yuyan instructed.

“Keeping me busy all the time was not enough for President Lu that I am getting thrown out again,” Lu Lijun commented.

Hearing Lu Lijun’s voice surprised Jiang Yuyan, and she looked at him. She didn’t show she was surprised and acted as if she did nothing wrong.

“It’s a short business trip. It will help you gain more experience of Lu Corporations overseas business,” Jiang Yuyan informed.

Lu Lijun chuckled frustratingly, “Isn’t president Lu tired of sending me away and keeping me busy so she wouldn’t have to see me?”

Jiang Yuyan looked at him, “Why would I not want to see you? Your word doesn’t make any sense.” Saying it calmly, she resumed her work.

His frustration, annoyance, and the way he felt seemed nothing to her, which hurt him even worse.

“Really? Then why are you doing this? Keeping me busy and trying to send me away again?” Lu Lijun asked.

“I told you already it’s for you to learn more,” she replied, busy working.

Seeing her only focused on work and not even caring what he felt at the moment, Lu Lijun went to her work table.

“Will you please stop your fake care towards me?” he said angrily.

Jiang Yuyan looked at him, and he continued.

“Will President Lu be happy only if I keep going away?” Lu Lijun asked, his rageful eyes stared into her cold ones.

“Don’t take things in the wrong way,” she spoke.

Lu Lijun was not in a mood to listen, “I wonder if president Lu would be happy the day when I’ll leave and never return. Do you want me to disappear forever, and you won’t have to see me ever again?”

This time Jiang Yuyan lost her composure and looked at him helplessly.

He was angry and didn’t know the weight of words he had just said. Those were the words she would never want to hear. Once Lu Qiang had asked her what if he goes away and never returns. At that time, she took it normally, but once he left, she felt the weight of those simple words to date.

Seeing her still the same, Lu Lijun asked again, “Do you want me to disappear? If so, then tell me right away. I promise you would never see me ever.”

Jiang Yuyan couldn’t get angry at him or say- do whatever he wants. She was scared, scared of what if he leaves for real.

In a flash of a second, all those terrifying moments flashed in her mind, and the anxiousness surrounded her to choke her.

Jiang Yuyan wanted to say to him- “Lijun calm down, Don’t go if you don’t want to,” but not a single word could make its way out. Only she knew how much his words shook her inside.

He glared at her with rageful and hurtful eyes, and she finally spoke with a chocked voice.

“I-I am… sorry,” she said. As if she had committed a great sin and wanted to apologize only.

This sudden change in her surprised him, but he failed to see what she felt and why she changed. He couldn’t see his harsh words almost left her traumatized with old memories.

“Is this another way to make me do things president Lu wants? If force can’t work, now President Lu wants to be good to me?”

“It’s not that….” she tried to say, but Lu Lijun interrupted her, “I understand what it is. I’ll leave on that business meeting as ordered by Almighty President Lu. Rest assured.”

Saying he left, not letting Jiang Yuyan finish what she wanted to say.

After so long, something happened, or someone said something that shook her to her core. All this year, she stood still like a rock, but Lu Lijun’s return had started to shake this strong rock which was on the verge of being washed away along with the light water current.
