Chapter 1616: Lu Lijun's Warning

?

Another of Lu Lijun's meetings was set with Jared Magnus, as per the latter's request. Lu Lijun was aware this time as well that Jared Magnus didn't have any good intentions for meeting him and must be planning something else to affect him.

However, Lu Lijun was determined not to give him this chance and to show him that none of his tricks would work. In just one meeting, Lu Lijun had somewhat understood what kind of person this Victor Magnus was.

The meeting was arranged in one of the restaurants once more, where Jared Magnus was already waiting for Lu Lijun.

"Glad to see you here, President Lu Lijun," the man in the perfectly fitted suit stood up to shake hands with Lu Lijun.

Lu Lijun shook his hand as he looked straight into Jared's eyes. Jared was a little surprised to see there was no sadness in his eyes but instead a determination to do something.

"Impressive," Jared commented while pulling out a light smile. "I guess you do not love your brother as much as I thought you did."

"You are nobody to judge my feelings towards my brother," Lu Lijun said coldly, "I do not expect it from those who took him away from me."

"Well, I was not one of them," Jared spoke as he gestured for Lu Lijun to sit and sat down himself.

"If we go by that logic, then there are many irrelevant things you are trying to do," Lu Lijun commented.

"Did my good intentions of bringing the truth out and not letting you be in the dark not sit well with you?" Jared asked as his assistant put a gift box on the table. "This is one of the rarest and most expensive wines. I hope this gift will help the bitterness between us go away."

"You must already be aware I can't drink. I will probably give it away."

"Ms. Yang loves to drink wine, I heard. You can accept it as a gift for her."

Lu Lijun eyed the beautiful wine bottle inside the well-decorated gift box. "If you insist," he said and looked at Noah, who picked up the gift box, which widened the smile on Jared's lips. "That's a good decision. We can now start on a better note, forgetting the past..." Crash!

The talk was interrupted as Jared watched Noah break the wine bottle against the wall, still holding the half-broken bottle in his hand, wine splattered around, even staining Noah's clothes.

The server who was in the room holding an empty tray after serving water watched as Noah put the half-broken bottle in his tray. "Clear every drop of that wine from here and you will be paid handsomely. The damage done to the wall will be paid as well."

The server nodded.

Lu Lijun turned to Jared. "Seems like my assistant didn't like the gift. Just like me, he believed it belonged in the trash can."

Jared kept his calm as the smile on his lips reappeared. "You and your assistant seem to be in perfect sync."

"There is a reason why he is my assistant. Not just anyone can take that place," Lu Lijun replied. "And whatever you were saying before this, I do not plan to forget anything, so you better brace yourself."

Jared chuckled. "Seems like there is no middle ground for us."

"That possibility you yourself erased with your so-called good intentions since the moment you entered this country."

"As you wish, President Lu," Jared spoke. "By the way, how did it feel to know you are one of the perpetrators?" He referred to Lu Qiang's accident.

Lu Lijun, though hurt inside, acted unaffected. "Not so good, but there is nothing one can't overcome," he looked straight into Jared's eyes. "I was wondering how it feels for you to side with your criminal brother and justify his actions when you yourself are the father of a teenage girl."

Hearing his daughter being mentioned, Jared's expressions changed a little, but he quickly collected himself. "My brother's actions at least didn't take anyone's life. But I lost two family members because of one girl."

"That's a good way to console yourself just because no one died, but have you wondered what that girl and her family went through all those years that her life was worse than being dead?" Lu Lijun asked.

"I see her living her life happily, while my family did nothing but suffer."

"You won't know her pain unless you suffer it yourself, will you?" Lu Lijun's expressions changed to a cold one. "I won't mind letting you face what her family went through all those years."

Jared clearly understood Lu Lijun's words. Finally, the smile on his lips disappeared and was replaced with cold expressions. "Is that a threat?"

Lu Lijun remained the same. "Just a proposal for you to get the opportunity to feel the pain that the other side felt."

"We are not involving any family members..."

"You have involved them already. You have involved my family members, and now it's your turn," Lu Lijun interrupted him.

"You dare involve my daughter in this."

Jared was aggrieved, but Lu Lijun was like an unshaken rock when he had finally caught the weakness of this man. Family is everyone's weakness, and he was going to use it against the

enemy. No mercy.

"Yuyan, my family, is my bottom line. When you hurt them, both sides were already involved. The start would be your daughter, then that little son of yours."

Jared slammed his hand on the table. "I will kill your entire family."

"Try it," Lu Lijun spoke calmly and then stood up. "I lost my appetite as you can't contain

your anger."

"We are not done talking yet."

Lu Lijun smirked and leaned down on the table with his hands resting on it, his eyes gazing into Jared's. "Control yourself. The game has just begun, Jared. I would love to see how you break when you see your daughter."

"You can't."

"I sure can," Lu Lijun smirked. "You must have thought I have morals like my family members, but I don't. When I decide to drop them, I can resort to even the dirtiest and most

evil things. I will make sure you witness it."

With that Lu Lijun and Noah left, leaving fuming Jared behind.

Jared looked at his assistant. "Send my family to our private island."

"Yes, sir."
