Chapter 906 Jake's Intentions...
Noah looked at Jake surprisingly as he didn't expect Jake to act like this. It was not the first time he teased Jake.
With his sight fixed on Noah's shocked looking eyes, Jake tightened his grip on Noah's wrists as he pinned his hands against the refrigerator on his either side.
"Don't be so violent, man, I was just joking," Noah spoke, seeing the way Jake stared at him.
Noah could only see the anger in those eyes, which he felt was the result of his teasing but failed to notice Jake's feelings for him, that disappointed Jake.
Both of their faces were just an inch apart as they had the same height, with Jake being just a half-inch taller.
That close distance affected Jake's sense as he gulped while Noah felt nothing but just a little shock by his friend's action.
Jake didn't let go of Noah as he couldn't get enough of that closeness, "Talk the bullshit again, and you will see how I calm myself down."
This time Jake meant what he said. One wrong move by Noah and Jake was ready to confess his feelings, not to forget how much he craved to kiss this guy and suffocate him under him.
"Don't beat me today. I need to meet Nicole tonight. Having my face punched and bruised by you will ruin my image in her eyes," Noah pleaded.
Hearing it, Jake frowned and closed his eyes in annoyance as he turned his face to the other side.
'This guy sure knows how to turn me off,' Jake thought as he gritted his teeth.
With the light push, Jake let go of Noah's hands and regretted what he just thought to do with Noah.
"Get the fuck out of here."
Warning Noah, Jake turned towards the kitchen platform and resumed his work.
"Don't you think you are frequently cursing these days?" Noah commented.
Jake stopped cutting the vegetables and pinned the knife on the chopping board.
THUD!!
Noah stepped back, "Okay-okay, I am going."
Noah went to the living room and sat on the sofa where Jake could see him from the kitchen. It was an open kitchen with the kitchen platform facing the living room.
Noah turned on the television where the news about Lu Corporation was showing. It was about the latest projects the company was planning and their future plans.
There was a picture of Lu Jinhai as the company's important person and talk about president Lu, whose picture was not there.
"Lu Lijun's father is so impressive," Noah commented.
"You will see more amazing people there," Jake replied; there was hidden meaning to his words.
"Yeah, I heard about President Lu. I wish I get to work with President Lu."
Though Jake was busy cooking, his ears were on what Noah talked, and sometimes he peeked at that alluring piece of flesh and bones, who was sitting on the sofa.
"As you are entering Lu Corporation, I am sure you would be able to work with the president soon," Jake assured.
"That much confidence in me, your highness? I am touched," Noah smiled teasingly.
"Though you are an ass hole, you have been gifted with a good brain and that sweet tongue," Jake countered and thought, 'Sweet tongue...hmm...must be very sweet.'
"Well, I agree. My brain is sharp enough to understand everything so easily," said Noah, that pulled Jake out of his mildly wild thoughts.
Jake sighed and mumbled, 'Your sharp brain is dumb only when it comes to me.'
"Did you say something?" Noah asked.
"I was praising your idiocy."
Ignoring Jake, Noah continued watching the news.

In Lu Mansion..
After Lu Lijun left, Lu Feng, who was busy, came late for breakfast. Seeing Lu Lijun's chair empty, he asked, "Where is Lu Lijun."
"Uncle went to his room," the little guy who was busy being fed by Yuyan answered as others just felt awkward about how to respond.
"Lu Feng understood what must have happened and sat in his chair, not asking any more questions.
After breakfast and talking to Weiwei for some time, Jiang Yuyan left to go to her room as they had to leave for the farmhouse.
On the first floor, she came across Lu Han, who was going downstairs. Jiang Yuyan acted as if she didn't notice him and continued going towards the staircase to the second floor.
They both didn't talk all these years as Lu Han never dared to return home and followed Jiang Yuyan's order. Even if he had to return any day, he would avoid coming in her sight and leave the same day or the next day.
Lu Han decided to talk to her finally and called her, "Yuyan!"
Jiang Yuyan halted in her tracks but didn't turn to look at him or didn't ask why he called.
"I didn't mean to return, but I had to. I will go back once grandma is better," Lu Han informed.
Hearing what he said, Jiang Yuyan didn't reply but kept standing for a while even after he finished talking.
Taking it as her approval, Lu Han spoke again, "Thank you for understanding."
Jiang Yuyan left to go upstairs, and Lu Han went downstairs once she left.

In Lu Bao's room…
"Will you be staying here till our cute little life is out of your womb," Wang She asked as the sisters grabbed each corner of the bed.
"Hmm," Lu Bao nodded, making herself comfortable by resting at
the headboard of the bed.
"Did your in-laws, especially your mother in law, agree to it?" Lu Lian asked.
"Yes," Lu Bao replied, smiling pleasantly.
"Is she alright?" Wang Shu asked teasingly.
"Hmm, she has been alright for the past one year," Lu Boa replied as she added, "I wonder what happened to her suddenly."
"I remember how she bothered you all the time after the wedding. Did your husband scold her or what?" Wang Shu asked.
"No. He doesn't know about it."
Wang Shu sighed, "You should have told him as he is the one responsible for you. He should protect you."
"He did protect me in his way. For that, he didn't need to scold his mother. Moreover, I didn't want the mother and son to be distant because of me. Though she troubled me, she loves her son a lot," Lu Bao countered.
Wang Shu bowed to her, annoyingly, "You are one great soul, Baobao. Since when are you so grown up?"
"It's okay, Wang Shu. She is happy now, and the brother-in-law loves her a lot. What more would one want?" Lu Lian interrupted.
"True, and spending two years as his wife, I realized my decision to marry him was the best one I took till now," Lu Bao added.
