The Stars In Your Eyes - Chapter 174

Jian Kang Se’s mouth twitched to see this massive public display affection done by his older brother. When he walked to their table, planned to sit there first to drink some wine before going to the battle to greet their relatives, what he saw was his older brother smiling so bright, his smile stretched from ear to ear. His brother’s hand touched and caressed Bai Yutang’s hair and cheek with a look of a man drunk in love. In his brother’s age, it was embarrassing to show this kind of intimate act in public.

His wife, Fan Mingle, chuckled to see what he saw. She seems to understand what’s on his mind. Her slender hands pat his back. “Try to understand your Ge. This is the first time he has someone in his life.”

Jian Kang Se looked at his wife, “You’re not there when he had so many girlfriends. This clearly is not his first time in a relationship.”

Fan Mingle smiles, her eyes bright and warm.. “Yes, but not a serious and mutual relationship. The one who gives and takes equally.” Her soft and gentle voice soothes Jian Kang Se. But he still humped and snorted, “He didn’t even see Yutang’s face clearly stressed out.”

Jian Kang Se walks and sits next to Bai Yutang. “Stop bothering him, Ge. Look around you, everybody looking at you.”

Bai Yutang is really ashamed. He knew everyone seemed to be looking at him, a big possibility they talked about him too. He shifted slightly to avoid his lover’s hand who seemed to have a magnetic pole to his body.

Jian Kang Lu frowned, “Of course they are looking at us. I just introduced my boyfriend to all our relatives here. Now they must be talking about how lucky i am to have a young and handsome boyfriend at my age.”

Jian Kang Se could only facepalm his brother. He took the wine and poured it to his own glass. It is better to give his brother silent treatment. He knew exactly how poisonous and how shameless his brother’s true colour behind that elegant and gentle facade.

Fan Mingle chuckled, “So finally you properly introduce him? But I didn’t remember you introducing TangTang as your boyfriend to me yet, gege. How come you give other people that privilege before us?”

“In seniority, TangTang should be your senior, sister in law. So don’t pretend you didn’t know about us.”

Jian Kang Se cut his older brother, “But you’re not married yet. And still we need proper introduction.”

Bai Yutang holds his lover’s hand, preventing his lover from bullying this couple. He glared to shut his lover’s mouth. He then turned and stood up, slightly bowing to his future brother in law. “It was my bad, Ge. I haven’t introduced myself properly, and I apologised for that. I hope you could forgive me.”

Jian Kang Se’s hand pulled Bai Yutang back to sit. “Why do you need to apologise? This should be my brother’s fault. Don’t pamper him too much, and don’t let him bully you. Tell us if he bullies you.”

Fan Mingle laughed, this is not the first time he saw his brother in law who always has arguments to shut his husband, being silent and docile after Bai Yutang glared at him. “This is exactly your fault, TangTang. You haven’t educated my brother in law well.”

Bai Yutang’s face is red, he doesn’t want his lover’s family to think he was too overbearing or controlling his lover. “T-this.. I should be the one who is educated by him. Please teach me too, Fan Jie.”

“Don’t bully my TangTang.” Jian Kang Lu wrapped his hand around his kitten’s body, and put his chin on Bai Yutang’s shoulder.

Jian Kang Se snorted and was happy to see Bai Yutang firmly grasp his older brother’s hand and shove his body away. He could hear Bai Yutang softly whisper with an angry tone to his shameless brother.

“Be careful, Ge. Behave, or else you will lose your boyfriend on the first day you properly introduce him to us.”

Jian Kang Lu abruptly throws the napkins to Jian Kang Se, “Do you curse me?? Never talk that way to us.”

Bai Yutang could see his lover’s mood suddenly down. He feels guilty since they once break up because of his selfishness. He holds his lover’s hand and tries to divert his lover’s attention back to him. His hand also caresses his lover’s thighs. It always works. His lover’s face back to the usual gentle face.

“Sorry, just too excited. I thank you both for receiving us with open arms. I think I just got too sensitive if someone told me that TangTang will leave me.” Jian Kang Lu knew he was losing his manner.

Jian Kang Se never saw his brother being in a serious relationship before, so he was taken aback at first. Even though his face didn’t show any changes at all, he sensed his brother really over sensitive regarding this matter. “Then treat him well, don’t always bully him.”

Bai Yutang is a little bit confused. Why does his lover’s family always think that his lover is bullying him? Does his attitude display a bullied one because he cooks for his lover? Bai Yutang thinks he needs to be straight about this matter.

“Jian Ge never bullies me, he always takes care of me.”

Fan Mingle laughed to see this pure little lamb. She could understand why Jian Kang Lu loves this man so much.

Jian Kang Se also looked at Bai Yutang with pity. He then looked at his older brother again, and at Bai Yutang again. Maybe because this little lamb was so young, he didn’t even realise he was bullied by his older brother.

All his life, Jian Kang Se knew very well how annoying it was to have a brother like Jian Kang Lu. Only in university he didn’t live under Jian Kang Lu’s shadow. And what makes him upset is that teachers and adults, except his parents, always think Jian Kang Lu is a very gentle and kind man.

It was true his brother is kind, but his brother also has skills to turn every argument favor him. It was a blessing to humanity that this man didn’t choose to be a lawyer or businessman, and choose to be a doctor instead. His older brother always wins arguments against anyone, and it sucks. The worst part is, most of his argument is right, that’s why it was indisputable.

And this pure little lamb even didn’t realise his older brother was bullying him. For example the scene just now. His older brother doesn’t have to drop the bomb now, it could wait until next new year. Slowly prepare their relatives.

Now nott only his older brother dropped the bomb, but also when everyone stared at them, his older brother should behave and sit properly. Not too close yet polite. But what does his older brother do? He hugs and caresses Bai Yutang in front of everyone. What is this called if not bullying?

But Jian Kang Se was too lazy to refute his brother again. He always loses in argument with him. If someone had to be responsible for shaping Jian Kang Se’s personality into a stoic man, Jian Kang Se will immediately point his finger to Jian Kang Lu.

They talk some more and disperse themselves to talk to the guests. Jian Kang Se’s headache a little bit to be bombarded with questions from their relatives regarding his older brother.

“Ah Se, is this true?”

“Ah Se, does your mother know about this?”

“Ah Se, can’t you talk to your brother?”

“Ah Se, how could your brother do this to your parents? Oh.. Poor Lin Caihong.”

“Ah Se, so did your brother intend not to get married at all?”

“Ah Se, how about children? Does your brother plan to adopt or surrogate?”

All these questions keep going. He only tries to lift his mouth a little bit, but his words are too few. Fan Mingle was the one who kept answering these questions. As the head of HR, her tongue is more eloquent than him. In his job, he didn’t need to say much. Only playing with numbers and showing the results.

Lin Caihong and Jian Shen already arrived and were bombarded with the same questions. She answers them one by one with smiles and laughter. She didn’t mind these people forgetting to say happy birthday or congratulate her. They prepare for this.

“Yes this is true.”

“Yes, Ah Lu told us and asked for our blessing.”

“No, it doesn’t matter. As long as Ah Lu is happy, we’re happy too.”

“Married? I didn’t know. It’s all in their hands. If they want to get married, I’ll make sure you’re invited.”

“Children? It’s up to them. But TangTang is still too young.”

“TangTang is a good child, we love him. That’s why we gave our blessing.”

Jian Kang Lu’s friend also comes, along with Jian Shen’s golf and business partners. They congratulate the birthday girls. They sense the atmosphere was quite tense. Is it because the summer weather is too hot this afternoon? But they feel the weather is perfect.

Jian Kang Lu’s friend notices what’s different and what might make this atmosphere quite strange. They saw Jian Kang Lu’s hand keep molesting Bai Yutang all the time.

“Quit molesting my TangTang, Jian Ge. Please behave yourself.” Luo Jiao gives Jian Kang Lu a disapproving face. Zhen Guo, who stood beside her, gave Jian Kang Lu a glass of wine and let his wife separate this mandarin duck. Luo Jiao dragged Bai Yutang to the others, preventing Jian Kang Lu monopolising Bai Yutang.

“So, you’re coming out to your family?” Sun Hongjia appeared behind Jian Kang Lu. Luo Yan also walked towards them. It was the question they all wanted to hear the answer from their friend who showed a smug face, like someone who just won a 1 billion dollar lottery.
