Chapter 1272: Naming Ceremony

Finally, it was the day of the naming ceremony for the little princess in the family. The event was set in the evening where only close relatives and friends were invited, keeping it only a private family event.

In the evening all the guests arrived at the celebration hall at one of the prestigious hotels including the Ming, Wen, and Jiang families and the guests from Lu Bao's in-laws.

Everyone from the Lu Family was present as Lu Feng and Lu Han returned home for the event. Elders were busy welcoming the guests while younger ones were busy talking to each other as they were back together.

Noah arrived there as he went straight to his friend who was with his brothers and was busy talking to the guests. Ming Rusheng and Wen Zac were together. Even An Tian arrived as he accompanied them.

Noah stood beside Lu Lijun who was silent and asked in a low voice, "Why is your mood so down? Fought with your wife or what?"

"We didn't talk," Lu Lijun replied.

The moment Jiang Yang arrived with his parents, he joined his friends.

"After so long I got to see my darling. Now I can be at peace," Jiang Yang commented as he smiled teasingly at Lu Feng.

"But it seems like I won't be at peace now," Lu Feng commented.

"You have lost your peace when you left someone behind and came here," Jiang Yang countered.

"This is what I was talking about. You can't stop talking which you should not."

"You don't need to be so secretive now. No one is an outsider here. Though you hide something, everyone is aware of it," Jiang Yang looked at others and asked, "Am I right?"

Before anyone could say a word, Lu Feng shot them a glare to which they only smiled.

"Ceo Lu Feng is so secretive," Ming Rusheng commented.

"I agree but not all the secrets can be hidden," Wen Zac added.

Lu Feng was calm and looked at the two, "Ming Rusheng, you better be careful of your secret, my sister will eat you alive."

"As if I mind," Ming Rusheng replied.

"Such a shameless man," Wen Zan teased.

Ming Rusheng looked at him, "You be careful of not messing up with my sister. Not sure about her, but I will surely look after you nicely."

"I am fine as long as your sister looks at me."

"Tsk tsk, all of you have turned into family men. Seems like I better leave you all," An Tian commented.

"Nosy people like you only search for gossip," Lu Feng said.

"From gossip, it reminded me of something," An Tian looked at Lu Lijun, "Thanks to you I have to lie to a dangerous person that I was leaving a city. If she finds out I was lying, I am dead."

Lu Lijun understood what he meant and said, "I was not the one to force you to lie."

"Ohh, really? But who was the one to benefit from it? You should thank me for having a good judgment of the situation."

Lu Lijun didn't argue much and stayed quiet. An Tian could guess his mind was somewhere else and looked at Noah to ask what's wrong to which Noah shook his head lightly while others didn't enquire much. Seeing Lu Lijun unusually calm but one could see the hidden coldness inside his eyes, no one preferred to poke him.

"I wonder where my sister is. Is she busy working or what?" Jiang Yang asked, not caring about Lu Lijun's mood. "Ah, she is there, I'll go see her." Jiang Yang left while Lu Lijun looked at Jiang Yuyan who was talking to her parents as the elder accompanied them.

She was smiling at them which she never did with him. He felt left out and jealous. In the past, he was the only one she had in her world and that smile was only for him. But everything had changed now which hurt him.

The way Lu Lijun was lost looking at Jiang Yuyan, others standing around could guess what they should. Lu Han looked at Lu Feng to which he said nothing and Lu Han sighed.

Wen Zac who had observed everything, and was the only aloof person here, looked at his friend Ming Rusheng to which he signaled him to keep quiet and Wen Zac understood what he should. He again looked at Lu Lijun who was just staring at Jiang Yuyan.

An Tian signaled Noah something. Noah put his hand on Lu Lijun's shoulder which distracted him from staring at Jiang Yuyan and he got back to his senses.

"Excuse me," Lu Lijun left and Noah followed him.

An Tian looked at Lu Feng, "You need to look after him. He looks at the edge of his control."

Lu Feng nodded, "I'll talk to him tonight."

Noah followed Lu Lijun out of the venue hall where Lu Lijun stopped at the balcony and stared outside blankly. Noah stood beside him, "What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing," came the reply from the lost-looking guy as he stared blankly towards the dark.

"Your silence is scaring me," Noah commented.

"Don't worry. I am fine. I just want to be alone," Lu Lijun replied.

"Don't mind me then," Noah said and stood next to his friend while accompanying his silence.

The Choi family was also the guest because the son of the family was the probable match for Jiang Yuyan. It was the first time she had finally agreed to go on the blind date. Moreover, there was no negative reply from her so everyone was happy that she wished to move ahead in her life.

Alex arrived with his mother who was also a well-known lady from the business family. Jiang Phizhi introduced Alex to elders from the Lu and Ming family. Everyone was aware of him but he was always away from his home country so it was rare for anyone to know him. Alex was one nice and capable man who perfectly matched the extraordinary president Lu, and everyone agreed to it if this relationship proceeded.

Soon it was the time for the naming ceremony and everyone gathered around. The baby girl was named Limei and everyone loved it. Once the naming ritual was done, everyone showered the baby girl with the gifts and resumed their talk.

Jiang Yang was talking to Alex as he was getting to know how he was as a person and if he was the right choice for his sister.

"I wished to thank you for something," Alex said to Jiang Yuyan.

"About what? Letting my sister go on a blind date with you?" Jiang Yang asked teasingly.

Alex laughed a little and said, "Yes for that too but there is something else."

Jiang Yang waited for him to talk and Alex explained, "The heart transplant you have done which was supposed to be a critical surgery. You have saved my stubborn friend who was waiting for his turn of getting heart donated to him."

"Oh! That? Is he your friend?" Jiang Yang asked.

Alex nodded, "He had to return here because of his heart issue and I am glad he is fine now."

"Good to know it. I must say he is a rare kind breed to not care about his life."

"True. such a gentleman he is. I wish what he was waiting for till now, he will get that too," Alex said.

"He got his life. What more now?"

"What can it be?" Alex gave him a meaningful look.

Jiang Yang got it, "A woman?"

Alex nodded, "He was waiting to confess her and almost gave up because of his heart but now he can pursue her."

"I don't think any woman will reject such a good-hearted man."

"There is. There are some women who want to be in their world only," as Alex said it, his sight passed across Jiang Yuyan.

Jiang Yang noticed it and understood Alex was also talking about his sister. "You didn't get the chance to talk to Yuyan. Let me call her." Jiang Yuyan called for his sister who came to them.

She and Alex had greeted each other formally before but didn't get the chance to talk.

"Shouldn't you accompany our special guest?" Jiang Yang said as he winked at his sister to which she didn't react and looked at Alex, "I hope you are comfortable here."

"Of course. Don't worry about me. You can attend the guests," Alex replied.

Jiang Yang interrupted the two, "I have to excuse myself," he then looked at Jiang Yuyan, "Take care of our guest."

Jiang Yuyan didn't react as her brother left while Alex talked, "He cares for you a lot."

Jiang Yuyan nodded.

Alex noticed something in Jiang Yuyan's hair and said, "There is something stuck in your hair."

Jiang Yuyan touched her hair as she heard Alex, "Little down, just above the ear."

Still, Jiang Yuyan could not reach it and Alex finally took an initiative to help her and pulled out a tiny glitter piece from her hair which shocked her and she was about to step back but heard Alex.

"Here."

Jiang Yuyan gulped and looked at it. She was not used to such action from someone as she had never allowed anyone. But she calmed herself and said, "Thank you."

Alex just smiled lightly after noticing how hesitant she was even to such a normal thing.

When it was happening, someone who was calm from the surface but there was chaos inside him, clenched his fists as anger arose in his eyes.
