Chapter 855 Anxious Lu Lijun...

An Tian chuckled as he commented, "But do you think there is a need for you to learn arrogance, Lu Lian?"

"Do you think I am arrogant," Lu Lian asked.

"Well, it’s in the blood of Lu’s. See the two examples. One sitting beside you and the other sitting there," An Tian pointed towards Lu Feng and Lu Lijun.

"I agree with An Tian," said Jiang Yang, and Lu Lian looked at her brother Lu Feng, "Brother, these two are..."

"It’s okay, we are special, and these two are jealous," Lu Feng interrupted Lu Lian as he smirked, looking at his two friends, "I will show you later what the real arrogance is."

"Ohh, we are scared," Jiang Yang laughed and looked at Lu Lian, "I didn’t know you think so highly of my cousin Rusheng. I think you should work with him."

"Only if your cousin were like you, I would have thought about it, but...." she sighed and added, "If I go back, I can’t say no to grandpa Ming.

"No one can dare to say no to the two old men," said Jiang Yang and suggested, "Rusheng is not bad either. You should give it a thought," and teased, "You might like him even better."

Lu Lian frowned, "My As....Cough..I..mean, I am happy where I am."

Lu Lian felt embarrassed as she was just about to curse in front of her brother while the others smiled, looking at her embarrassed red face.

"Stop teasing her, Jiang Yang," Lu Feng instructed.

Lu Lian was not that young university student now, but she was one independent working woman who followed the path of her dreams. After she graduated from university, she went to the USA for masters and studied architecture in one of the world’s best universities.

Once she finished studying, she didn’t come back to China as she thought to achieve success independently, where the influence of her family wouldn’t matter.

When these people were arguing about things, something was not right with Lu Lijun.

Lu Lijun went to the washroom area where he closed himself inside. Standing in front of the washbasin with his eyes shut tightly, his head lowered down as his hands rested on the platform, he continued to inhale and exhale to calm himself down.

’Why am I so uneasy?’

He loosened up the tie and tried to breathe normally.

’I don’t want to hear her name. Why does it affect me so much? I hate it. I hate to be like this.’

He continued to think and finally opened his eyes to look at himself in the mirror, and the next moment splashed water on his face.

Just then, there was a knock on the bathroom door, "Lu Lijun, are you okay?"

Jake asked, and Lu Lijun grabbed the paper napkins to dab water from his face as he opened the door.

"Are you okay?" Noah asked as he looked worriedly at Lu Lijun.

"Hmm!"

Both friends followed Lu Lijun the moment he left as they could sense the change in Lu Lijun.

"I’ll do it," said Lu Lijun, but his two friends welcomed him with a narrowed eyed look and continued doing what they were doing.

"What happened to you suddenly?" Noah asked as he added, "Hiding things for so long is not good. One day it might start suffocating you."

"Nothing!" Lu Lijun replied, avoiding to look at his two friends.

"Every time the same reply. Do you think we don’t know you after so many years? Behind that every nothing, there is always something," Noah said in an angry voice.

Jake said nothing as he too wished Lu Lijun to be at ease, so he didn’t stop Noah this time.

Lu Lijun looked at his two friends who were worried about him. Jake, who always interrupted Noah from questioning, was silent this time, and Lu Lijun understood there was no way out as Jake too sided with Noah.

"Trust me; I don’t know what it is. I am just feeling uneasy and anxious," Lu Lijun replied.

For the first time, this always so cold, and pretending to be a strong guy, looked confused and lost, and his friends didn’t fail to notice it.

"Let it be for now. Let’s go out," Jake suggested as he couldn’t see Lu Lijun troubled before the important event, and Noah agreed, "Hmm, let’s go."

The ceremony was about to start as the guests were on the stage already. The person standing behind the dais was announcing the important instructions regarding the convocation.

The three young men sat in the second row in front of the nicely decorated stage, as the first row had reserved for the university professors.

The ceremony started with introducing the guests who were world-famous personalities from the business or other fields, followed by the encouraging speech by them to guide the students.

The entire Lu family stuck to the television screen to see Lu Lijun receiving his degree and waited for it desperately.

Soon the moment came when Lu Lijun had to go on the stage. San Zemin’s men handling the camera work for the Lu family didn’t let the camera miss Lu Lijun even for a single moment as he stood up and went towards the stage by walking on the way dividing the sitting area in the middle.

Lu Feng, Jiang Yang, An Tian, and Lu Lian were as excited as the Lu Family back home as they clapped for Lu Lijun.

The black robe and cap had given to Lu Lijun, the usual graduation dress, and he accepted the degree from the guest as he shook hands with him.

Lu Lijun was one famous student in an entire university because of his sharp brain. Being a gifted child, he had never failed to surprise anyone.
