Chapter 1006 - I'm The Wrong Person To Follow...

Though Jiang Yuyan helped Lu Lijun, it was not easy for him to get out of sly foxes' clutches. Lu Lijun looked at Jiang Yuyan, his intentions clear that he wished to leave, but someone spoke before she could say anything.

"Lu Lijun, have one drink with your friends," the young man similar to Lu Lijun's age came to where Lu Lijun sat, and two others followed him.

"I don't see any friend here," came the cold reply from Lu Lijun.

Those were the sons of other business families and knew Lu Lijun since they were kids. Lu Lijun met them during the party when Lu Lijun was being introduced to other businessmen.

Lu Lijun talked to them as they came to him, claiming to be his childhood friends, and Lu Lijun could only accept it silently.

These three people saw what was going on Lu Lijun's side, and when they saw how President Lu sided with him and Lu Lijun got his way, they couldn't stay still as they didn't like Lu Lijun much.

The guy laughed, "You are still the same Lu Lijun. How can you forget me and how you broke my hand when we were kids? Weren't we friends?"

He was the kid who Lu Lijun hurt in their childhood days when that kid talked something wrong about Lu Qiang. Lu Lijun's anger was something that the kid ended up in the hospital, and since that day, he hated Lu Lijun.

Lu Lijun looked at him. Though he looked calm, his eyes showed how annoyed he was. "I just remember one ill-mannered kid was badmouthing my brother, and I had to teach him a lesson."

The way Lu Lijun looked at the guy, he felt intimidated but just smiled to hide it. "It was in the past, Lu Lijun."

"I was not the one to bring it out," Lu Lijun countered.

Others could only witness what was going on. They were curious about what this young generation was up to.

"We can be good friends now. Let's start it by drinking together," the guy insisted.

Lu Lijun almost screamed in his mind, 'Not again,' and said, "I don't wish to make any new friends."

"So stubborn you are. Or is it like you can't drink?" the second guy asked as he smirked.

Before anyone could say it, the third guy spoke, "Hey, it can't be. He is a real man. Now he is not the one to depend on president Lu for the help just like in the past."

This time, Jiang Yuyan looked at the second and third guy as she spoke, "Seems like that day in the past, your mothers forgot to teach you proper lessons," Jiang Yuyan sighed, "My bad, I trusted your mothers too much. I should have let principle smack your hands with a stick."

Everyone heard what Jiang Yuyan said and looked at the two guys. They looked fl.u.s.tered. In the past, when they bullied Lu Lijun, and Lu Lijun beat them, Jiang Yuyan had to step in to handle the situation so Lu Lijun wouldn't be accused wrongly.

Jiang Yuyan continued, "Why did I stop the principal? Was it 50 times or 100 times smacking? Now I think this much wouldn't have been enough."

Jiang Yuyan managed to embarrass the kids, knowing these kids didn't change even a bit.

Suddenly one man around the table spoke, "President Lu, they were kids at that time." The man was the father of one of the two boys.

Jiang Yuyan smirked, "I believe they have grown-up now."

"Of course. I know them well now," the first boy who had nothing to do with that incident spoke.

He then looked at Ming Rusheng, "I follow brother Rusheng and admire him."

Ming Rusheng didn't look at the boy as he knew his intentions.

Wen Zac looked at Ming Rusheng and signaled him to be patient, and Ming Rusheng assured him it was fine.

The boy then said again, "Lu Lijun, you can learn from us or brother Rusheng is there too. We can learn together from him," the boy looked at Ming Rusheng again, "Am I right, brother Rusheng?"

Ming Rusheng was already annoyed. He knew the boy as they were family friends, and the boy always stuck to him calling brother all the time and showing off in front of others.

"Instead of learning how to drink, why don't you learn something about business so you three can join us here on this table next time," Ming Rusheng commented as he didn't even bother to look at them, and once again, there was silence.

It was something unexpected from Ming Rusheng. Noah wanted to laugh at poor kids, but he controlled while Lu Lijun and Jake were unaffected.

This time, someone had to break the silence, so one of the boy's father said he was a close friend to Ming Rusheng's father.

"Ming Rusheng, let them have fun as they are still young. Weren't you the same at their age?" The man asked as he wanted to save their kid's faces.

Ming Rusheng was calm and replied, "That's why I don't want them to follow my path and waste time."

The man didn't expect Ming Rusheng to answer calmly, but he realized he just offended the man who looked calm at the moment but later might get back at him.

He immediately tried to handle what he just said, "What are you saying, Ming Rusheng? You are one of the most successful person here. It's good if they follow you."

"I'm the wrong person to follow," came one more cold reply from Ming Rusheng.

Lu Lian saw it all but didn't know what to think about it. For now, she was just worried about Lu Lijun and felt glad Ming Rusheng didn't side with those people.

Liwei, who was silent, observed everything too and waited to see what would happen the next. She didn't know anyone there closely, so it didn't concern her whatever the end would be.

The atmosphere turned awkward as the dining table turned into two opposing parties where Jiang Yuyan, Lu Lijun, and Ming Rusheng looked on one side, and those troublemaker businessmen and their kids were on the other side.

The rest, including Lu Jinhai, Jake, Noah, and the Wens, were the spectators who couldn't help Lu Lijun.
