Chapter 462 - The Return Of Lu Zihao Part IV
Not wanting to annoy her big brother, Iris stopped talking about her healthy sex life with Jin Liwei. She didn't think that it was such a big of a deal. Making love with the man she loved felt very natural. She thought that her big brother was overreacting. Tossing the matter out of her mind, she grabbed Lu Zihao's hand instead and led him deeper into the indoor forest.
Popcorn trotted beside them, while Ice Cream followed behind, making sure to maintain a few metres of distance from Lu Zihao. Finally, the koi fish pond came into view.
"Mama! Mama!"
Little Jun was the first one to notice their arrival. The toddler ran towards them, but like Ice Cream, he stopped in his tracks when he saw the tall and big man beside his mama. He looked scared, but at the same time, curious as well.
Then a dramatic shriek echoed all throughout the indoor forest. Dom jumped out of his seat and goggled at Lu Zihao. His face was a theatrical mask of shocked delight.
"Big Brother Boss! Is that you?!! Kyaaaaah!!!"
Meimei and Clover also jumped out of their seats and started squealing. The triplets already met Lu Zihao before. They thought that he was very hot. Seeing his new, more muscular body immediately sent the three into fangirl mode.
Jiang Ying Yue also stood up and smiled in greeting. However, she didn't join the triplets in squealing. However, as a muscular woman, she was very interested in how Lu Zihao got his new body.
Long Jinjing and Chen Fei covered their ears because the triplets' squeals were so loud. They felt like their eardrums were going to burst. They were very confused about what was happening. Standing up like the others, the two looked at the unfamiliar man walking beside Iris. They hadn't met Lu Zihao before.
Iris carried Little Jun who was now staring at Lu Zihao. The toddler didn't seem to remember the man, even though he already met him before. Lu Zihao just changed so much and didn't show himself for so long that the child had completely forgotten about him. It also didn't help that his face now had a long scar on it."Little Jun, this is Uncle Zihao. He's my big brother. You already met him before," Iris re-introduced Lu Zihao to the child.
The toddler thought that the man was scary, but he trusted his mama. She introduced the man to him, so the man must be nice. After greeting Lu Zihao with a shy "Heyo", Little Jun hid his face against Iris' neck.
While carrying Little Jun, Iris led her big brother to the islet. The triplets' excitement went into overdrive.
Later…
Everyone was seated on the couches and chatting. The extra refreshments sent by the butler had also arrived.
Little Jun and the cats were back playing under the fruit trees with the nanny and the catsitters.
Back to the adults on the islet, the triplets couldn't stop gushing about Lu Zihao's "new and improved" appearance. They thought that the scar looked very cool and just made him more attractive. Meimei even took out her tablet and stylus that she always carried around wherever she went. Then she started sketching a dangerous yet charismatic and handsome character based on Lu Zihao.
Iris also introduced Long Jinjing and Chen Fei to Lu Zihao, describing them as her friends and also as the COO and CFO of her company, Orchidia Beauty, respectively. Then she introduced Lu Zihao to the two as Grandpa Lu's grandson and her and Jin Liwei's brother.
When Lu Zihao looked at the two women, Chen Fei stared right back at him. Long Jinjing, however, turned red and looked away.
"Big Brother, we're going to launch my company on the last day of the month. You're invited. You must come," Iris told him."Ah… So this is the party the old man kept on pestering me to attend. I thought it was another stupid blind date attempt, so I completely ignored what he said. Fine, little sister. I'll come. Besides, I'll be staying here at mansion with you. I'm not going anywhere anytime soon," he told her.
Iris and the triplets were ecstatic to hear his confirmation of attendance to the party.
Then Lu Zihao turned to Long Jinjing who was introduced as the CFO of Orchidia Beauty.
"You better not cheat my little sister's company out of its money," he warned her in a deceptively light tone. His eyes, however, were cold.
Long Jinjing was feeling shy earlier when Lu Zihao was first introduced to them. Her face was red the entire time. He looked very intimidating, especially with the scar on his face. Nevertheless, he was also extremely attractive. But now Long Jinjing felt insulted by his words.
"I take my job as Orchidia Beauty's CFO very seriously. I'm not going to cheat the company, nor would I cheat my own sister. I won't betray her. And for your information, Xiulan is MY little sister, not yours!" Long Jinjing's blush of shyness turned into a flush of indignation instead.
It was very rare for the others to see her so worked up. They all became quiet and watched the two.
Lu Zihao raised an eyebrow at the woman. "Heh… Is that so? Well, too bad. She may be your sister by blood, but she's my sister in soul. Bad blood could easily destroy your relationship. But us? Even death could never tear us apart."
"Dude, that's so creepy," Chen Fei commented. "I think you've read too many bad romance novels."
He just shrugged his shoulders. Then seeing Meimei focusing on him while sketching on her tablet, he flashed her with his demonic smile. The triplets all gasped and clutched their chests, as if a heart-shaped arrow just shot them straight into their hearts.Chen Fei turned to Iris. "Xiulan, is he your concubine? Are you sure CEO Jin is fine with your close relationship with this guy? No wonder some people think that you're engaged with this Lu Zihao instead of CEO Jin."
"My little sister and I don't practice incest," Lu Zihao replied to her before Iris could say anything. "And if Third Brother doesn't understand our special brother and sister bond, then he's an idiot who doesn't deserve my sister."
Lu Zihao instantly paled after saying the last sentence about Jin Liwei being an idiot. He gritted his teeth and took a barely noticeable sharp intake of breath. Despite this, his expression remained impassive yet also roguish as usual. Only Iris noticed that something was wrong with him. But before she could say anything, he faintly shook his head, silently telling her that he was fine. Then he grabbed a random glass of juice on the table and drank it.
"Hey, that's mine!" Long Jinjing exclaimed.
"Well, it's mine now." Lu Zihao ignored her protest, drinking all the juice until the glass became empty.
Despite feeling insulted by him earlier, Long Jinjing still couldn't help but blush, especially watching him drink from her glass.
The triplets all snickered at her.
Lu Zihao flashed the triplets with his demonic smile and winked at them. And with that, the indoor forest was filled with deafening squeals once again.
