MY BROTHER IN-LAW TURN HUSBAND, VOLUME 7 - Season 14 Episode 68

”Jessica, why don’t you tell us something about these three from your university days. I always wanted to know as these two never tell us anything,” Lu Lian said.
”Of course,” Jessica answered, smiling excitedly and started with something as everyone paid attention to what she would say.

She started, “Okay, once a Senior girl student from the safe faculty of university confessed to Jake.”

”Wooh,” Lu Lian looked at Jake teasingly but he just shook his head saying to her that it’s nothing.

”Then, how did this guy reject her as we can’t expect him to accept it,” Lu Lian asked.

”She was a proud girl from a rich family. Okay, getting rejected is not a big deal but the way you get rejected is a real thing and my cousin here is ruthless. He simply gave her a questioning look as if he didn’t get what she meant.”

”Then?”

”She said- I said I like you Jake and this guy was like ‘That’s not my problem’.”

Lu Lian narrowed her eyes at him, “Such a cruel guy.”

”Jake always knew how to hurt them. Later no one wanted to go to him. Though he was my brother, sometimes I hated him for being cruel to those girls. He could just reject them politely but he was ‘the Prince Jake’ who was bound to act cold.”

”Don’t worry, he will melt for his someone special,” Ming Rusheng commented as he looked at Lu Lian who nodded with a smile, “Just like you melted for me?” Ming Rusheng smiled back with a nod.

”I wonder whose problem will turn into his problem,” Jessica teased.

”I bet you don’t have to search too far,” Lu Lijun commented.

”What do you mean?” she asked.

”Jessica, don’t pay attention to him,” Jake stopped her, “You better not expose only my things.”

Jessica nodded and turned to Lu Lijun and everyone waited for what she would say, especially Jiang Yuyan.

”Well, about Lijun? Most of us used to think that he was asexual.”

”What?” Lu Lian exclaimed.

Others felt quite surprised while Noah and Jake knew the reason. Their friend had only one woman in his mind all the time to even recognise any other woman’s existence around him.

Lu Lijun sighed, “Jessica?”

”Let her talk, Lu Lijun,” Lu Lian insisted.

Lu Lijun stayed quiet and Jessica spoke, “Well, there is no doubt that he was one of the handsome and most stalked guys on campus. So many girls tried different means to get his attention but not even once this guy paid any attention as if they didn’t exist around him. All the girls were tired and his ignorance was more hurting than Jake’s hurting words. He was not interested in any girl or even any guy and finally, rumours started that he was asexual.”

”Now what do you think, Jessica?” Lu Lian asked as she knew her brother was not what they thought.

”I was his friend because of Jake so I never doubted it but I could not stop others,” she said and looked at Lu Lijun, “Sorry.”

”I don’t care what others think as long as someone there knows what I am,” he said as his gaze passed by Jiang Yuyan who immediately averted her gaze and heard him again, “I am sure no one knows better than her.”

Jiang Yuyan felt her heart skip a beat at his last line. ‘How shamelessly he is to say it in front of others. Is he trying to show others that we did something?’ She knew others were aware of what was going on between them except for Jessica.

Before Jessica could ask what he meant, Lu Lian spoke, “And Noah?” Lu Lian knew her shameless brother would not leave a chance to embarrass Jiang Yuyan.

Jessica was ready to answer, “Ah, he was always a lady’s man. No doubt he was the third one of this handsome trio. He was a magnet to attract girls and never said no to anyone who approached him. Such a gentleman he was unlike his two friends,” Jessica said as she narrowed her eyes at Lu Lijun and Jake. “He even pampered the girls whose hearts these two broke. Everyone liked him on campus. So lively and sweet and dangerous at the same time.”

”Why do I feel like Noah was more popular and better than these two?” Lu Lian asked.

”True because he was really popular- smart, talented and ready to help any girl who sought help in studies.”

Lu Lijun and Jake only looked at each other and then towards Noah who just stayed quiet.

”Yeah, I am sure he was the reason those girls got good grades,” Lu Lijun said sarcastically.

”I believe only studies were included in his teaching,” Jake added.

Jessica laughed, “We all know there was more than just studies.”

”Jessica, I heard that the professor you had a crush on and followed for so long, is getting married now,” Noah said ignoring sarcastic remarks from his friends.

Jessica cleared her throat, “Well, few are just not meant to be together.”

”It’s sad to know. I was expecting you to have kids with him by now,” Noah did not give up rubbing salt on her wounds.

”Okay, tease all you want. I am over him now. I might date your friend soon,” she said and wink at him.

Date a friend? Of course, that was Lu Lijun.

Jiang Yuyan looked at Lu Lijun who did not deny her claim.

As more things started to get exposed, Noah, Jake and Lu Lijun opposed Jessica when she tried to say something that they didn’t want others to know and on a few things they all laughed together. The only person who was quiet was Jiang Yuyan. She never saw Lu Lijun smiling and laughing like this. She had missed so many things about it.

’He can even laugh,’

She only looked at him. How handsome he looked like this. She had not seen him laughing after so many years that she almost forgot just like hers, his eyes also turned into an inverted crescent moon when he laughed heartily. Those bright eyes were hidden under his thick lashes when he laughed, a sharp nose, thin lips widened into a smile revealing a uniform row of teeth. She found his smile the most beautiful thing she wished to look at this moment.
