Chapter 981 - Missing The Friend...
When Lu Lijun and Jiang Yuyan went to the cemetery in the village in the early morning and were busy missing Lu Qiang, at the same time there were other people who were no different from them.
At the place outside of the city which treasured all the memories from those people’s childhood days, they gathered every year after Lu Qiang’s death.
The car stopped near the place surrounded by the greenery and had a small hill in the center that had only a single tree at the hilltop.
Lu Feng and Lu Han stepped out of the car and just then one more car stopped there and Jiang Yang stepped out.
Smiling lightly looking at each other, the three stepped to go towards the hill.
Looking around they remembered the old days once again and sat on the rocks placed around that huge tree.
"So many years passed by but this place is still the same," Jiang Yang said as he looked around.
"I wish it to never change," Lu Feng spoke.
"It won’t," Lu Han assured.
Lu Feng nodded, "We won’t let it change."
"You are the owner of this place so you better take care of it," said Jiang Yang.
"CEO Lu is capable of doing everything," said the person who just arrived there.
Lu Feng had bought that land in the past as he wished this place to be always there just like that.
"You are late An Tian," Lu Feng commented.
"I went to get this," An Tian showed then the small box, "This day can’t be complete without accompanying our friend with this though he had low alcohol tolerance."
Every year on Lu Qiang’s these four spent time at this place while talking and remembering Lu Qiang as if they were spending time with him as there was no other place which had Lu Qiang’s presence like this one.
The four men sat under the tree as An Tian put one bottle near the tree, "This is for you President Lu. Don’t get drunk with only this much."
Though they acted normal, inside everyone felt emotional that they tried to hide with light smiles on their lips.
An Tian turned towards the other three men and handed them the bottles each and got one for himself.
CLANK!!
"Though he couldn’t drink much, he was a good company while drinking," Jiang Yang commented.
"Not sure about drinking, but he was good company because of his savage remarks," Lu Feng added.
"Don’t remind me of it. No one could win over him," An Tian spoke.
When all the three talked, Lu Han was quiet, but said something, "He was a good younger brother to a bad elder brother."
Lu Feng put a hand on Lu Han’s shoulder to console him and Lu Han continued drinking.
The four continued talking and just then Jiang Yang asked, "Yuyan must have gone to visit him."
Lu Feng nodded, "Lu Lijun too."
It surprised Jiang Yang, "Together? Are they on good terms now?"
"Not together," Lu Feng replied.
"I hope they would reconcile if they come across there," said Lu Han.
"I don’t think so," An Tian commented.
Jiang Yang looked An Tian, "Are you that sure?"
An Tian sighed, "Two stubborn people, carrying the burden of all kinds of pains in their hearts caused by others and each other, things won’t turn right this soon."
Jiang Yang agreed, "I wish them to be together like in the past."
Others wished the same too.

At the same time in the orphanage built by Lu Corporation...
The Lu family celebrated this day in the orphanage every year. The special treat was prepared for the kids along with lots of gifts.
Elder Ming reached along with Ming Rusheng. It was the first time when Ming Rusheng came with his grandpa to that place.
Lu Lian and Lu Bao were busy giving gifts to the kids in the orphanage when they saw Ming Rusheng. Lu Lian was surprised while Lu Bao went into her teasing mode.
"At least on this day he should leave you alone," Lu Bao commented.
"His grandpa must have dragged him here," Lu Lian reapplied and resumed her work as if his presence didn’t matter to her.
The Lu Family members talked to Ming Rusheng but his eyes searched for a certain someone. Soon he noticed Lu Lian surrounded by the kids as she distributed the gifts.
He felt relieved seeing her as she looked fine. Till now, he understood her elder brother meant a lot to her.
Some time passed by when Ming Rusheng was still busy with others and he didn’t get a chance to come across Lu Lian as she was busy somewhere and he wondered if she even knew he was there.
"Rusheng, you are here for the first time. You can go and see the place," Elder Ming suggested.
"Your grandpa is right," Elder Lu added.
As if what Ming Rusheng exactly wished for, he stood up and left. Just as he came away from others while looking around this pleasant place, Lu Bao and Qin Xiu came across him.
The three greeted each other by nodding a little and turned to go on their way but LU Bao called him, "Brother Rusheng."
Ming Rusheng turned to look at her and she replied by signaling towards one place, "That side of the orphanage is really good."
Ming Rusheng looked at where she pointed and nodded though he didn’t understand her intentions. The two ladies left and Ming Rusheng left to where Lu Bao suggested him.
Crossing the small playground for the kids, Ming Rusheng reached the silent place which was surrounded by a single row of the palm trees and in the center, there was a lawn with benches to sit on.
Ming Rusheng crossed Palm trees and looked around where he saw someone familiar sitting on one of the benches, looking ahead toward the trees.
Ming Rusheng stepped ahead towards her who he was searching for a while now.
Before he could take even a few steps, Lu Lian stood up and went towards one tree. She sat near the tree, put the small box inside the already dug place, and covered it with soil.
