Married to the Male Lead's Brother Chapter 68

Chapter 68 – The stars in little Lu Jue's eyes crumbled. (2)

“Xiao Jue, where did you go? Mom was so worried.” Mother Lu ignored Lu Jue's resistance and threw her arms around him. Tears streamed down her cheeks and the weight had finally been lifted off her chest.

“Mom was worried sick.” Mother Lu hugged her skinny son tightly, fear that she would lose him again.

Lu Jue's mouth was shut tight and his brows furrowed. Not wanting to be hugged, he started struggling to break free from Mother Lu.

Mother Lu let out a deep sigh of relief. “Xiao Jue, don't run round like that again in the future.”

She let go of him and Lu Jue stopped struggling.

Father Lu wasn't as emotional as Mother Lu but his eyes were still glistening from moisture.

Next to them, in a white shirt, was Lu Shenyuan who was smiling tendering, “Little brother, you are home safely. That is great. Mom and Dad were very worried.”

Lu Jue said nothing.

Mother Lu looked her son up and down and, after she had made sure that he was not injured, finally said, “Alright, let's not stand around the front door any more. Let's go inside.”

Ning Zhi followed behind them.

Walking in front, Lu Jue suddenly turned around and looked at her.

Ning Zhi's lips curved upward and she hastened her pace.

Xiao Juejue was starting to pay her attention!

In the dining room, Mother Lu busied herself around Lu Jue. She finally let him back to his room to get some rest after he was done eating.

Ning Zhi followed him upstairs.

Lu Shenyuan showed up in the hallway all of a sudden.

“How did you get back?” He blocked in front of Lu Jue.

Lu Jue said nothing. He did not react to what Lu Shenyuan was saying to him.

Lu Shenyuan sighed, “Mom and Dad worried about you.”

Ning Zhi frowned when she heard that.

Lu Shenyuan's voice was low. “I didn't think you would be able to find your way home so quickly. Why did you still come back?”

Ning Zhi was stunned when she heard Lu Shenyuan's words.

She knew all along that Lu Shenyuan had bullied Lu Jue when they were children and that Lu Shenyuan had been a mean one but she chalked that up to him being young and didn't know any better. Hearing what Lu Shenyuan was saying now, she just looked at him in a whole different light.

“The Lu family needs no fool.” Lu Shenyuan went on to say. “You shouldn't have come back.”

Ning Zhi thought she was hallucinating. Lu Shenyuan was belittling Lu Jue purposefully. How could he!

Lu Shenyuan knew that Lu Jue would not respond to him. He smiled and walked away.

Looking at the quiet Lu Jue and then back at Lu Shenyuan with the smug look on him, Ning Zhi was angry.

Something occurred to Ning Zhi. She leaned into Lu Jue's ear with a smile and said, “Xiao Juejue, let me teach him a lesson for you.” Having said that, she quickly ran after Lu Shenyuan.

She spent one little sun so she could materialize.

In the hallway, Lu Shenyuan seemed to have tripped over something. His entire body tumbled forward and he felt solidly onto the floor.

Lu Shenyuan fell hard. His nose slammed against the floor and started to bleed.

“Young Master, your nose is bleeding.” A servant who walked past happened to saw Lu Shenyuan fell and quickly walked over to help him up.

Lu Shenyuan didn't let them help him. Covering his nose with his hand, he turned and looked behind him. There was nothing on the ground.

Lu Shenyuan frowned. For certain he had felt something that tripped him.

Was he mistaken?

Looking at Lu Shenyuan's disheveled look, Ning Zhi smiled like she was a little fox who had just stolen food. Once again, she felt that the power of the little suns was wonderful.

Returning to the room, Lu Jue sat quietly on the bed.

Ning Zhi walked over and told him, “Xiao Juejue, I've taught Lu Shenyuan a lesson for you and caused him some pain.”

Lu Jue looked up at her. He finally said after a long while, “Disappear you.”

Are you about to disappear?

Ning Zhi was surprised, “Oh, how are you so smart and know that I have to go soon?”

Their meeting this time was short.

Lu Jue looked at her quietly, “No leave.”

“That's not something that I have control over.” Ning Zhi teased him purposefully. “Xiao Juejue, do you not want me to go?”

Lu Jue's long and straight eyelashes fluttered and he said in a low voice, “Mmhmm.”

He stood up, walked over to the dresser, opened up the top drawer and pulled out a colorful ribbon from inside of it.

Lu Jue walked back over.

“What is the ribbon for?” Ning Zhi was baffled.

Lu Shao sat down next to Ning Zhi. “Tie you, no go.”

He put one of his let next to Ning Zhi's then, bending over, he tied Ning Zhi's ankle and his together.

Ning Zhi wasn't sure what to make of that. She suddenly recalled how little Lu Jue had grabbed onto her hem so she wouldn't leave him and, now that he had grown, he had learned to tie her down.

Nevertheless, Lu Jue quickly realized that the ribbon went right through Ning Zhi's leg and could not be used to tie her.

He blinked. His lips shut and he looked at Ning Zhi blankly as though was asking her why did the ribbon went through her.

To satisfy him, Ning Zhi spent another little sun so she could materialize. “Okay, try again now.”

Lu Jue noticed that the ribbon could be tied around Ning Zhi now.

The girl's ankle was skinny and Lu Jue clumsily wrapped the ribbon around a few times, tying her ankle to his.

Looking at the knot that Lu Jue had tied around them, Ning Zhi busted out laughing.

There was a smile in Lu Jue's eyes as well. It was light, like little stars were embedded in them.

This time, Ning Zhi did not cover up Lu Jue's eyes with her hand.

She pinched his cheek a little. “I have to go now.”

Lu Jue blinked and the girl's pretty face turned blurry in front of him bit and bit. And then she was gone.

The knot came lose and the colorful ribbon fell loosely onto his foot. The stars in little Lu Jue's eyes crumbled.
