nWatching her husband and Lu Tian disappear, Madam Lu angrily mumbles to herself,

n

"How dare they leave all alone here?!

"

n

"Mom, how can you forget about me? I'm still here you know.

"

nMadam Lu's body froze at the sudden voice.

nShe robotically turn her head to the owner of the voice.

nShe faked a smile,

"ah ha ha.. Han..

"

nShe was so into her 'speech' about her oldest son getting marry that she had forgotten all about her youngest son.

nHow could she have forgotten the second holy masterpiece her and her husband created?

nGood lord, just what kind of mother was she?

nLu Han squint his eyes at his mother. He had long seen this coming. Every time him and Lu Tian were force to come back to the old house, his mother would rant and rant like there's no tomorrow.

nOf course, it was always about his older brother's marriage.

nGood thing he was the youngest, or else he would be the one to hear from their mother.

nHe really pities his older brother.

nLu Han sighed,

"Mother, I forgive you for forgetting about this great one, but can't you leave older brother alone? He knows what he's doing.

"

nMadam Lu cried at her youngest son's words.

n

"Why can't your older brother be more like you and show interest every time a pretty girl appears. Aiya..

"

nLu Han felt as if he was a blown balloon that just been deflated.

nHe cried inside, 'Ma, why do you know so much about this one..?'

nIt was true that with his good looks, he had a habit of changing women like changing his clothes, but admires were nothing close to his older brother's.

nIf looks could impregnate a women, his older brother would already have countless children.

nLu Han thought, 'I must be the emperor of the mundane world and older brother is the Heavenly emperor.'

n—-

nIn the study, old man Lu sat behind his desk while Lu Tian sat across.

n

"I called you back today because next month is a good friend of mine's birthday.

"

nLu Tian arch one eyebrow and look at his old man,

"You're telling this because?

"

nOld man Lu:

"I know you don't like attending these kind of events, but you remember grandfather Ji, right? It's his 71st birthday and his grandson is hosting a birthday banquet at the Ji Mansion.

"

nHe paused to look at his son, then continue,

"Grandfather Ji is someone we Lu's cannot offend. I want you and Han to do this favor for me. You don't have have to stay till the end of the banquet, just be there for a few minutes to wish the old man good health.

"

nLu Tian:

"His adopted grandson?

"

nOld man Lu nod his head,

"Mm. Even though that child is adopted, the old man really loves that boy. I hope you can do this request. Not just me, but also for grandfather Ji.

"

nLu Tian listened attentively to his father's words.

nGrandfather Ji was a highly well known prestige figure of China. Even at an old age, he is still the General in the army and Chairman of Ji Corporation.

nThe old man was a figure that Lu Tian really looks up to and respected.

nOne should know that there are only a few amount of people in this world that Lu Tian respected.

nThe old man had adopted a little boy few years ago and gave the boy the Ji family's surname.

nAnd that was how you know someone really cares about another, even if they weren't tied by blood.

nSeeing his son's silence, old man Lu started to feel sweat forming on his forehead.

nBack in the days, he was also cold and ruthless as the CEO of Lu Corps, but watching his own son grow into a fine man, he realized his ways of ruthlessness then was nothing in comparison to his son's.

n

n

nEven he was sometimes scared of his own son.

nLu Tian who oblivious to his father's mind, was still pondering about his father's request.

nComing to a decision, he didn't say a word but only made a,

"Mm.

"

nOld man Lu smiles cheerfully inside hearing his son. He nod his head like a proud father,

"Thats good then. I'll have my assistant notify Xu Long.

"

nThough it was just a 'mm', to old man Lu, he knew it meant a yes.

nOutside the study, Madam Lu had her ears glued to the door. She made sure no words escaped her old ears.

nSuddenly, she grinned from ear to ear, like a wicked witch.

nHer oldest son had agreed to attend the birthday banquet!

n

"Why are you grinning like that? Are you trying to scare away evil spirits?

"

nLu Han said as he rolled his eyes. He couldn't believe his mother would eavesdrop on his father and older brother's conversation.

nHow can he have such a noisy mother?

nYet, he ignored the fact that he was no different from his mother.

nHis ear was also glued to the door.

nSuddenly, his eyes shot open and his jaw dropped. He stare at his mother, and said loudly,

"Don't tell me you plan to— ahh—-!

"

nBefore her youngest son could blow their cover for eavesdropping, Madam Lu drags him away by the ear.
