Stepping out of the car, Jiang looked at the butler, who came to her and bowed. Same thing happened, just like the night when Jiang Yuyan returned home after finding Lu Feng. One servant came to her with the huge bowl of water and she knew what to do.

She thought if it was some kind of ritual to wash hands like this whenever she returned home after getting blood on her hand. The next moment another thought struck to her mind that how come the butler got to know both the times she had done something like harming or killing someone.

Xiao Min and the driver bowed to their boss and left after leaving her in the butler's care.

The butler led her way towards the secret room behind the mansion. As they reached there, the butler suggested, "Young mistress seems tired so it would be better if you sleep here."

Jiang Yuyan wanted to ask him so many things, but she was tired to do so, and nodded to what the butler said.

"The things young mistress needs are ready in the bathroom. Get fresh and rest well. If there is something, press this button," the butler added, showing her the button near the bedside.

Jiang Yuyan nodded again, and the butler left.

After getting freshen up, Jiang Yuyan dropped the idea of sleeping there. Though she was tired, she went to the second floor and entered Lu Qiang and her bedroom. Getting on the bed, she slept at the one side of the bed facing the side that Lu Qiang used to sleep on.

Jiang Yuyan caressed his place with her hands, feeling his presence there. As her eyes got heavy again with the sleep, with her blurry vision, she saw Lu Qiang sleeping in his place facing her. Looking at her smiling pleasantly, Lu Qiang patted her head as he spoke, "Sleep."

Smiling, Jiang Yuyan closed her eyes and fell asleep the next moment as she murmured, "Lu Qiang."

The next morning Jiang Yuyan woke up and noticed the sunlight brightening the room. She realised she had one more plan to execute that day as the next day was the day of selecting the new president. When Jiang Yuyan moved to wake up, she noticed someone was sitting on the couch.

"Lu Lijun?" she exclaimed.

"Good morning," Lu Lijun greeted her as he kept the tablet in his hand aside.

Jiang Yuyan rubbed her eyes to check if it was her dream, but it turned out to be reality as Lu Lijun stepped towards her.

"How come you are here?" Jiang Yuyan asked as she sat on the bed.

"I missed elder brother."

On this reply from Lu Lijun, both stayed quiet for a while. Mentioning Lu Qiang was an emotional thing for both.

Lu Lijun raised his hand to touch Jiang Yuyan's touched forehead, but she moved back, "I am not sick, Lu Lijun."

"You can't be sick or you know you won't be able to step out," Lu Lijun warned as he finished checking her temperature even after she didn't want him to.

'This kid, acting like an adult again,' she thought.

"Then you should stop acting like a kid," Lu Lijun commented and Jiang Yuyan gave him a narrowed eyes look

"If you are not sleepy anymore, get ready for breakfast," Lu Lijun instructed..

"Huh? Did I sleep that long?" Jiang Yuyan looked at the table clock to check the time and held her head, "It's late."

"It's okay for kids to sleep till late so don't worry," Lu Lijun commented and Jiang Yuyan frowned, "Call me kid again and you will see."

Keeping his poker face expressions, Lu Lijun asked as he went back to sit on the couch, "What can you do instead of frowning?"

Jiang Yuyan was arguing with him, but it was not serious. It was the first time after so long she saw him talking like before, and she liked it.

"You can go ahead, I'll be downstairs soon," instructed Jiang Yuyan.

Lu Lijun informed, "No need. The breakfast would be here in a while."

When Jiang Yuyan returned from the bathroom, she saw Lu Lijun was preparing the breakfast table after the servant brought it in the room.

Lu Lijun instructed her to sit in the chair. When they started eating, Jiang Yuyan looked around the room. It was exactly like before it used to be, but just one person was missing. Her throat felt choked as she thought about it and Lu Lijun passed her a glass of water.

"I miss him too," said Lu Lijun as he ate while looking down at his dish.

Jiang Yuyan's eyes turned moist, but she controlled herself from crying. Both continued eating silently with their hearts feeling heavy while trying hard to not show emotions to each other.

Once the breakfast was finished, Jiang Yuyan spoke, "I will be out again and I might be late."

"Hmm!" Lu Lijun nodded, not asking her anything.

"Why do you never ask about where I am going?" Jiang Yuyan questioned as she always wondered about it.

"Because I know you won't tell me," Lu Lijun replied and Jiang Yuyan didn't know what to say.

This little guy never troubled her with anything, and neither he ever questioned her. How much more mature he could act at such a young age, thought Jiang Yuyan.

After breakfast, Jiang Yuyan left the Lu Mansion in her car. She went to the secret mansion as she had one more important task to complete for that day.

Sitting in her room along with Xiao Min, San Zemin and the butler, she discussed her plan.

"Have you got what I have asked you to get," Jiang Yuyan asked.

"Yes boss," San Zemin replied as he handed her over one brown envelope which had a Lu Corporation's logo on it.

Jiang Yuyan opened the envelope and pulled out the stack of photographs from it. She went through it one by one but looked like she was not happy with it.
