Chapter 950 His Worry...

Just as Ming Rusheng stepped out of his office, his sight followed Lu Lian’s office. He couldn’t stop himself from going there and seeing what she was doing.

He knocked on the door and entered her office, where Lu Lian’s assistant was arranging some files.

The assistant bowed to him, and before Ming Rusheng could ask, the assistant replied, "Ms. Lu is in the workshop."

Nodding lightly, Ming Rusheng stepped towards one door in the office.

He knocked on the door and heard the voice, "Come in."

The door opened into the personal workshop for Lu Lian, attached to her office, where she could work on the blueprints.

Ming Rusheng entered the workshop and saw a busy lady in stylish casual office wear, a full black neck long-sleeved top, and red trouser.

The room was mildly dark, and only the light where she sat was on, which lit up the glass of the work table where she was drawing with a ruler and pencil with focus.

The sleeves pulled up to her elbows to stop them from hindering her work, her black hair folded on the backside of her head as she tucked one pencil in them to keep them at a place, a circular lensed, thin gold rim spectacle rested on her tiny nose’s thin, delicate bridge.

Ming Rusheng continued looking at her as a light smile painted on his lips.

Lu Lian was too focused on her work even to notice who entered the room and thought it must be her assistant.

When the person didn’t say anything even after entering the room, Lu Lian asked while still busy looking at her, drawing, "What is it?"

"Seems like I’m disturbing the work," Ming Rusheng spoke, and Lu Lian stopped working as she looked at him.

While working like this, she looked unusually attractive, and the way she looked at him and her little surprised eyes behind the circular spectacle made her look to be able to make Ming Rusheng’s heart skip a bit.

Getting out of the daze, Ming Rusheng stepped towards her while she was ready to stand up.

"No need to stand up," he instructed, and she said awkwardly, "I thought my assistant was here."

"It’s fine. I stopped by to check how is work going."

Saying he stood beside her and leaned forward to check the blueprint on her table. He only meant to check it seriously, but that was unusual closeness for Lu Lian as his tall figure felt like towering her small sitting figure.

"The community center?" he asked.

Getting back to her senses and she nodded, "For now, the basic design I’m making as there would be lots of changes to make after consulting with others.

Ming Rusheng observed whatever she drew, "Looks like you need to calculate this again," he said, pointing towards one part in the blueprint. "You know the base is the most crucial thing, and tiny mistakes in calculation can make anything collapse.

First, Lu Lian felt surprised that he caught her mistake so quickly just by looking at the blueprint for a few seconds and then nodded, "Hmm, I’m working on it.

Just then, Ming Rusheng’s sight followed the other blueprint next to the one he saw. In that sheet, she had already corrected the fault he had noticed.

"Good that you already corrected it," he commented, "If you need any help, you can ask," he offered.

"I will," she replied.

"I’ll take a leave then," he said, and she nodded.

Ming Rusheng left, and Lu Lian exhaled out as she realized they talked so normally these days.

’Was it a change in both of them or was it because they were busy with work to remember the bitterness between them," she thought, "Why is this man suddenly talking so nicely, and why am I forgetting how I didn’t like it?" she frowned.

Lu Lijun worked the entire day, and in the evening, he was working on something that was not related to his project. Noah stood beside him in the couch of the office and asked while looking at his laptop screen.

"Why are you searching for the companies from the USA who started the business here like ten years back?" Noah asked.

"Just," he replied casually.

This reply from you means there is something really important. I won’t force you to tell me, but I might be of some help," Noah offered.

"I’m searching for one particular businessman who started the business here with few companies in collaboration nine years back. There are so many, and I’m searching for a particular link," Lu Lijun replied.

"And what’s that link?" Noah asked.

"Someone partnered with the business with the one who wished to harm Lu Corporation in the past. Both sides should be powerful to do that," Lu Lijun replied.

Show me who you have shortlisted?" Noah asked as he could see Lu Lijun was ready to tell him everything.

Lu Lijun moved his laptop screen towards Noah, "Few are there, and among them, I’m looking into this person. He died nine years back, and no one knows how and why. His car was found in the river, and he was dead."

"Is it related to your elder brother’s accident?" Noah asked and searched for something, "Xi Cheng, this person was famous, but how come no one knows what happened with him?"

"Hmm, they couldn’t find anything just like in my brother’s case," Lu Lijun added.

"Your brother’s case is even surprising," Noah commented.

Noah had already looked into it as it was the company he was joining, also as the concerned person was his best friend’s elder brother.

"Hmm, but seems like someone took care of everything on their own," Lu Lijun mumbled, which Noah heard but said nothing, being busy working on something.

"Found it," Noah exclaimed, "That year, he was working with a few companies from the USA, but these three look more interesting, "Noah replied.

Lu Lijun looked at the list, "We need to look into all three and need to know their family history first." Thᴇ link to the origin of this information rᴇsts in novelenglish.net . Fɪre

That’s not difficult to know unless they deliberately hid something. They are powerful, so easy to do it," Noah commented.

"Hmm, but there are always a few who try to expose something before shutting by them. We need to search for that though I doubt if they had left anything to find," said Lu Lijun as he continued typing something on the laptop.

"As you said, someone must have taken care of everything, then why are you digging into it?" Noah asked, he sounded serious.

"I want to know the person who dared to hurt my brother. I wish if that person is still alive so...." Lu Lijun stopped as he clenched his fists.

Noah didn’t ask anything, and Lu Lijun kept quiet, working on the things as if his life depended on him.

"Lijun," Noah called.

"Hmm?"

"Are you looking into it because you think the threat might come to your family again?" Noah asked as he could guess what was in his friend’s mind.

Lu Lijun didn’t answer, and Noah asked again, "President Lu’s accident. Do you think it’s related?"

"Not sure?" Lu Lijun replied casually, but his eyes held the worry that he tried to hide.

"I don’t think there is a need to say that you can trust me," Noah said.

"You are here with me; that explains everything," Lu Lijun commented back.

Both friends continued working, and Lu Lijun let Noah know only what he wished him to know. There were a few things that Lu Lijun didn’t know completely and wished to keep them to himself.

Xiao Min returned home. He kept himself busy the entire day to forget about things between him and Shen Li.

Xiao Min was one of those who never let their work be affected because of his personal things and never even showed it on his face, but as he was free and back home, he couldn’t avoid thinking about it.

During the dinner he was silent and his parents felt worried. They tried to make him talk but they could only get a few words of reply from him.

"Xiao Min, I’m thinking of renovating our home. What do you think?" Mrs. Xiao asked.

"It’s good," he replied.

"Tell me what changed you would like in your room so we will arrange accordingly," Xiao Dong spoke.

"Whatever both of you prefer," Xiao Min replied.

Whatever they tried, it was hard to make him talk so the parents thought to keep quiet.

Once they finish dinner, Mrs. Xiao put one bag on the dining table, "You have to take this to Shen Li."

It surprised Xiao Min, "What?" he exclaimed, "I mean, at this hour? It’s late."

"I talked to him at noon and he didn’t sound well. I made some healthy food for him and told him I’ll send it with you. He said no but we should not listen to him as he lives alone" Mrs. Xiao explained.

Xiao Min calmed down and asked, "What happened to him?"

"He had a sudden fever and had to take half a day off from work," Mrs. Xiao replied and asked, "Will you go or should I send your father?"

"No need to trouble father for this," Xiao Min stood up as he commented coldly, "Just because mother has already prepared, I’ll take it to him."

Xiao Min left home with the food boxes his mother prepared and sat in his car. He checked his cellphone but there was no call from Shen Li. He gripped the cell phone tightly and felt like cursing Shen Li as his mother knew about him but not him.
