Young Brother-in-law Is Now My Husband

1559  Angry Lu Lijun

Although Mister Hao was initially shocked, he swiftly grasped the situation and spoke, "President Lu, please forgive her. Eliana is still young and bound to make mistakes. Please do not mind her and enjoy the lunch before it gets cold."

Jiang Yuyan looked at him, "Mister Hao, apologies. We won't be continuing this lunch." She stood up, and the proud man next to her did the same.

For the first time in front of strangers, she had admitted being his wife—what more could he ask for.

Mister Hao understood there was no way of insisting, as once Jiang Yuyan decided something, she would not back down. If she had already stood up, she wouldn't sit back.

He stood up, "It's alright, President Lu. Maybe next time. Once again, I apologize on my daughter's behalf. I hope it won't affect our business deals."

Jiang Yuyan offered him a light nod and turned to leave, holding Lu Lijun's hand, asserting her authority over him.

Reaching the door, Jiang Yuyan stopped and looked back at Mister Hao once more, "I believe Mister Hao is aware of the meaning of privacy."

The man immediately nodded, "Of course, President Lu. No words from today's meeting would go out. I give you my word." The man was aware he could not divulge the shocking news he learned today.

Once the two left, Mister Hao sat back and looked at his still shocked daughter, "You almost got us into trouble. Remember not to have any other thoughts about Lu Lijun. You can mess up with anyone but President Lu."

Once the two left, Mister Hao sat back and looked at his still shocked daughter, "You almost got us into trouble."

Eliana stood up from the chair and walked towards the door, unwilling to engage in conversation with her father.

"We are not done talking yet, Eliana," the man said coldly as he stood up as well, "Remember not to have any other thoughts about Lu Lijun. You can mess up with anyone but President Lu."

She turned around and looked at her father, her gaze angry, "What's so special about that old woman, and why are you always so wary of her? To me, she seems nothing more than a greedy woman enjoying luxury after her dead husband's substantial wealth. Now she has her hands on the young handsome man, who is her brother-in-law and much younger than her. It's her ploy to not give up on that immense wealth, as Lu Lijun will take the position of the next president. She simply can't give up on the luxury. A lecherous woman."

"Eliana, shut up."

The man sighed helplessly, "You really don't know her. If she wants, she can keep this entire Lu Corporation in her hands and at her mercy. She can choose not to give that position to Lu Lijun."

"Then that widow is just lusting after a young man, isn't she? And you can't stop singing her praises and even want me to be like her."

Knowing there is no point in talking to his stubborn daughter, the man sighed, giving up. "Eliana, we don't have anything to do with their personal matters. Focus on our business and…"

"So, Dad, you agree she is a lustful and lecherous woman?"

Thud!

The door of the private room swung open, capturing the attention of the father and daughter. Lu Lijun stood there, holding a file in one hand and the other clenched in a fist, his eyes burning with anger, resembling a devil with palpable, deadly rage on his face.

"Lu Lijun…" Mister Hao was shocked. "Please, Eliana was just…"

Before anyone could comprehend…

Slap!

A tight, crisp sound echoed in the room, landing on Eliana's face, causing her to fall to the floor. The slap was so cruel that she tasted blood in her mouth, and her teeth felt almost loosened. Her eyes brimmed with tears as she looked at him in shock and hatred.

Mister Hao didn't know what to do and rushed to his daughter.

"I would never raise my hand on any woman, but to me, you don't seem like one. Such a poisonous mouth and heart," Lu Lijun growled, the veins on his hands tightened as his fists clenched. His anger-filled eyes looked red as he glared at her. "Next time, watch your mouth when you talk about her. Even if hitting a woman is immoral for me, when it comes to her, I do not think about morality. I would not even mind killing you right at this moment."

He looked so dangerous at this moment that no words could escape the mouths of the father and daughter. Eliana sank into her father's arms, fearful for her own life.

"Lu Lijun, I apologize for what she said. I promise, I will send her away, and you won't see her again," Mister Hao said.

He was well aware of the Lu family, especially the ways of Lu Qiang and Jiang Yuyan. If they decided to be merciless, then no one could stop them, and this Lu Lijun appeared more dangerous than them.

"Please, forgive her. You won't see her again," the man pleaded again.

Lu Lijun finally registered his words; his bloodshot eyes stared at the man, "Don't go back on your words. Take this trash away from this city," and walked out of the room after placing the file in his hand on the table.

He had returned to give one file to Mister Hao, but when he reached the door, he heard his daughter trash-talking about Jiang Yuyan, and he could not take it any longer. How dare she say such things about Jiang Yuyan who was nothing like what this brazen girl has said. After he stepped out of the room, he inhaled deeply, calming his anger and returning to his relaxed self before going back to Jiang Yuyan, who was waiting for him at the lounge area. He didn't wish to let her know anything that happened inside the room.

"Done?" Jiang Yuyan asked, referring to why he went to see mister Hao again.

He nodded, "I gave him the file," and held her hand to walk out.

----

Inside the private room.

"Dad," Eliana cried, "He dared…."

"Shut up," the man scolded her, "No more words now. I really have spoiled you. You are leaving this city tomorrow first thing in the morning." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"I won't…."

"Don't make me force my way out. You better be obedient, or I will pass all the inheritance to your cousin."

She shut her mouth and continued to cry silently. Her cheek felt like it was on fire, and her jaw felt almost dislocated.

The updates won't be daily. It would be random twice or thrice a week with two or more chapters at a time. Be patient with updates.
