Chapter 1056 - Preparing The Present...

After wishing Jiang Yuyan, Noah went to Lu Lijun's office, where he finally saw his friend.

"I thought you are not coming to the office today," Noah commented.

"Why would I not?" Lu Lijun asked.

"It's a good day," Noah replied.

"To me, it seems like any other day," Lu Lijun countered, being ready to work.

Noah sighed and asked, "Have you wished President Lu?"

"For what?" Lu Lijun asked nonchalantly.

Noah almost felt like punching his friend and replied, "Nothing."

The entire day passed by, not even once Lu Lijun went to Jiang Yuyan and wished for a birthday. Even in the morning, he pretended that he didn't know it was her birthday.

Office hours were over, and Lu Lijun was ready to leave.

"Leaving early today?" Noah asked, "The wedding?"

"Need to prepare a present for someone," Lu Lijun replied; his intentions didn't look good to Noah.

"What are you up to?" Noah asked.

"It's a surprise," Lu Lijun replied and added, "You can join Jake. He must be waiting for you."

Noah, who was about to ask so many questions to Lu Lijun, turned silent the moment Lu Lijun mentioned Jake.

Lu Lijun knew how to stop Noah from enquiring more and make him lose in his world.

His nosey friend had only one weakness, and that was his highness, Jake.

Jiang Yuyan and Lu Jinhai were ready to attend the wedding.

"Where is Lu Lijun?" Lu Jinhai asked his wife, who was ready to accompany him to the wedding.

"He didn't return home from the office but informed he would be there on time," Ning Jiahui replied.

The three left and reached the venue where so many known people from the business world and their families were present.

They talked to each other as such were the occasions when they met after long. Mr. and Mrs. Wen was there too, along with Wen Zac.

"Lu Lijun should have been here," Mr. Wen suggested; his intentions were the same as he wished Lu Lijun to meet more people.

"He would be here soon," Lu Jinhai informed.

Just as almost all the guests arrived and left a little for the wedding ceremony as the bride and groom would arrive shortly, Lu Lijun entered the wedding hall.

But he was not alone. With him, there was a pretty girl, and the couple caught everyone's everyone's attention. Lu Lijun wearing a black suit walked inside the wedding hall as Liwei, who wore a red evening gown, held onto his arm.

After attending the various business meetings and parties with Jiang Yuyan, most people knew about him and tried to know more. Why not? After all, he was the future president of the Lu empire.

It shocked Lu Jinhai, Ning Jiahui, and Jiang Yuyan, as well as the Wen family. They could only look at the two and to each other, not having a word to say.

Showing together on occasion like this with media people around, hinted towards the two being a couple. Soon the talk started in the hall as everyone speculated Lu and Wens would be relatives. Moreover, everyone was aware of the friendship between Lu Jinhai and Mr. Wen.

"Did you know about it?" Lu Jinhai asked his wife.

She shook her head lightly, and Jiang Yuyan, too, looked like she had no idea.

Surprised, Mr. Wen turned to his wife, "What is she doing with him?"

"She was supposed to be home," Mrs. Wen replied, feeling equally shocked.

Mr. Wen looked at his son only to hear him instructing, "We can talk about it home, father."

There was no use as the deed was already done.

Lu Lijun and Liwei went to them. Lu Lijun greeted his parents and lightly nodded to Jiang Yuyan, who stood there unaffected with anything. Wens was there too, so out of courtesy, the cold guy greeted them.

The people known to them came there, and as usual, most of them were curious about Lu Lijun and Liwei being together, but both sides answered them saying their kids are childhood friends, so they were together.

Lu Lijun pulled out the chair for Liwei to sit with him as he was the one to bring her there. Instead of her parents, she sat with the Lu family, and it was one more confirmation for others.

The parents could only be silent with so many people surrounding them.

Just as Lu Lijun and Liwei sat, Lu Lijun said to Liwei, "Today is President Lu's birthday."

"Ahh, really," she said cheerfully and smiled at Jiang Yuyan, "Happy birthday."

Jiang Yuyan nodded lightly, accepting it, her expressions as usual neutral.

Though Lu Lijun told Liwei about the birthday, Lu Lijun still didn't wish Jiang Yuyan. Also, it didn't look like Jiang Yuyan even cared about it. She wouldn't care less, even if no one ever wished her.

The wedding started, and everyone blessed the couple as they enjoyed being part of such a grand and lovely ceremony. But the two families looked tense inside though they tried to pull out a smile.

Lu Lijun looked at Jiang Yuyan, who was, as usual, calm and had no expressions as she just focused on the stage. But he could see she was not a bit interested and was there purely for the sake of business relations.

When everyone looked at the stage, Lu Lijun's sight kept following Jiang Yuyan subconsciously. Whenever he realized what he was doing, he frowned at himself and tried his best not to look at her.

Time passed by, and soon the newly wedded couple was on the dance floor as the guests were invited to join them too.

Not being able to distract himself from looking at Jiang Yuyan, Lu Lijun turned to look at Liwei, who sat beside him but was busy looking at the bride and groom as a wide smile painted on her lips.

"Liwei," Lu Lijun called.

Liwei looked at him.

He stood up and offered her his hand.

Feeling puzzled, Liwei accepted it and understood what he meant. Holding her hand, Lu Lijun took her to where the couples were dancing.
