Lu Lijun was in the office. At dinner time, his mother called him.

Keeping his work aside, he picked up the call, "Mother!"

"Are you not coming home tonight, too?" Ning Jiahui asked. 

"No, mother. Have lots of work to do," Lu Lijun replied. 

Ning Jiahui sighed, "You and Yuyan both are alike. She is still working, and you are too."

It puzzled Lu Lijun. As much he could remember, she had already left just after the work hours were over. Before leaving, he didn't go to see her because he didn't wish to trouble her after what he did with her after breakfast. He was sure he didn't trust himself. 

"Is she not home yet?" Lu Lijun asked.

"Did she leave the office already?" Ning Jiahui asked. 

Lu Lijun understood she didn't go home. He didn't want to worry his mother and replied, "She must be in the office. I am busy, so I didn't check."

"Both of you, make sure to take a rest. It's almost winter now. Keep yourself warm," Ning Jiahui instructed. 

Just as Lu Lijun hung up the call, he looked at Noah, "Is President Lu still in office?"

"President Lu left long back," Noah replied and asked, "What happened?"

Lu Lijun looked at the table clock and realized so many hours had passed by then why she was not home, and if she was late, she always reached before dinner time. 

Lu Lijun dialed Xiao Min's number. 

Xiao Min had sent the doctor off and was busy instructing the butler about the things regarding his boss and received a call. 

Before he could even say hello, Lu Lijun spoke, "Where is your boss?"

"Why is suddenly the fourth young master…."

"She didn't go home, so I want to know where she is?" Lu Lijun interrupted Xiao Min. 

"The boss is not going home today," Xiao Min replied.

"Is she not well? What happened to her?" Lu Lijun asked worriedly. He was sure, if she didn't go, that meant she was away to hide something.

"Boss is fine," Xiao Min replied, but the next moment heard the cold voice.

"I didn't call you to hear your fake assuring words. Tell me the truth."

Xiao Min sighed, "Boss is resting."

Lu Lijun lowered his tome and asked calmly, "What happened?"

"Same as last time when the boss was in the office, and the Fourth young master took care of her," Xiao Min replied. 

There was a short pause before Lu Lijun reacted, "Hmm!" He understood what Xiao Min meant and could hmm in response. 

After a moment of silence, he spoke again, "Where is she?"

"Where she's comfortable," Xiao Min replied.

Lu Lijun understood Xiao Min would not answer him and hung up the call after he said, "Understood."

On the other hand, Xiao Min felt puzzled to think how this young master didn't question him further. Was he that obedient?

"What happened?" Noah, who heard it all, asked only to get a cold answer, "Let's finish it all faster."

He looked serious, and Noah didn't say anything further. 

Around midnight they finished their work. Lu Lijun looked at Noah, "You can leave."

"You?" Noah asked. 

Lu Lijun opened the drawer of his table and pulled out his personal laptop. 

"You are at it again," Noah commented. 

"I need to go to her," Lu Lijun said as he opened his laptop. 

"Who was the one who didn't go to her the entire day while scared of himself?" Noah asked, but then something struck his mind. His friend couldn't be like this without any reason. "Is President Lu not well?"

"Hmm!" Lu Lijun agreed, and Noah said, "Want any help?"

Not answering, Lu Lijun tried something on his laptop while Noah waited for him. 

Lu Lijun didn't get the appropriate result and looked at Noah, "From the last incident when we followed them, they seemed to be alert. I can't track her or Xiao Min's contact number."

"Is that so?" Said Noah as he went on Lu Lijun's side and looked into the laptop. "For this, we will need the help from someone who can hack through anything and basically have all those setups."

Lu Lijun knew it too, and Noah said, "Call Jake. To beat one powerful person, we will need another person in power."

Lu Lijun called Jake, and they took help from Jake's resources. Lu Corporation's resources were under President Lu, so there was no way Lu Lijun could get his hands over it. 

Soon, they got what they wanted- Jiang Yuyan's location. Lu Lijun stood up and looked at Noah, "We need to prepare our set up like in England."

Noah agreed as the two stepped out. "We need to get someone smart and would only work for us when we are busy."

Just as they stepped outside of the Lu Corporation building, both felt the cold wind that indicated winter had started.

———-

Noah went home while Lu Lijun followed the location where Jiang Yuyan was. He reached the hillside place crossing the silent roads that had no sign of anyone living around that area. 

His sight noticed one double-story home situated at the top of the hill, glittering in the darkness of night. His car stopped in front of the huge wooden gate, and he stepped out. He looked around as if he had never been to this place. 'Who does it belong to?' He thought, 'Did she build it to spend her time alone? If so, Lu Lijun got his answers about where she used to stay every weekend before he came to China.

The security Guard noticed the unknown car and went towards it. Lu Lijun stepped out, and the guard asked, looking at the person who had never been to this place, "May I know who this is?"

Lu Lijun turned around and looked at him. The guard immediately recognized who he was as everyone knew the fourth young master of the Lu family after seeing lots of news about him. Especially the engagement scandal.

"Fourth Young Master," he bowed to Lu Lijun.

"President Lu?" Lu Lijun asked. If this guard recognized him, that meant he was at the right place.

"President Lu is inside the home?" Saying the guard led his way inside the gate. 

Lu Lijun looked at the lavish duplex with glass walls that showed its inside due to the lights brightening everywhere and curtains being pulled away. Only one part of the second floor was dark, and Lu Lijun understood she was there. 

He straightway went inside the home as the security guard followed him. Xiao Min was working in the living room while sitting on the sofa as the butler accompanied him. 

Sensing the sudden movement as someone entered the living room, Xiao Min and the butler looked at the young man and stood up. 

"Fourth young master," Both exclaimed together.

Lu Lijun looked at the staircase as he knew where she would be. Before he could take a step forward, Xiao Min asked, "Why is the fourth young master here?"

"Do I really need to answer this?" Lu Lijun countered coldly. 

Xiao Min knew why he was there and realized he had just asked a silly question. 

"Boss is resting. It would be better if we won't disturb her," Xiao Min suggested, but the way he looked at Lu Lijun, his sight said you don't need to go to her. She is fine like that.

Lu Lijun glared at him coldly, "Do you dare stop me from going to my family?

"I only meant not to disturb her when she is resting."

"Don't worry," Lu Lijun stepped to go upstairs but stopped and looked back at Xiao Min, "You don't need to follow me. I will take care of her."

Xiao Min rooted to his place as he could not stop him. He didn't even bother to tell Lu Lijun in which room Jiang Yuyan was.

Lu Lijun went upstairs and looked at the two doors. He opened one door, and fortunately, in the dim light of that room, he could see the bed and someone sleeping on it. As he went inside and his sight adjusted to the dim light, he could clearly see the room. 

He went to bed and saw Jiang Yuyan was sleeping soundly, and like last time the back of her palm had a small white patch on it. He understood she was on IV like the last time. 

Sitting at the edge of the bed, he observed her face that had frown lines though she was sleeping. He held her hand that had a white patch, and caressed it. 

Her hand felt cold, so he gently rubbed with his warm palms. Lu Lijun checked the temperature in the room and was fine. "Why is she cold? Is it because she is not well?'

He realized when he rubbed her palm, she had already gripped his palm in her sleep, and frowned lines on her forehead seemed to be eased out. 

Lu Lijun stared at her for a while, and the next moment he pulled up the same quilt that covered Jiang Yuyan and got inside it. Without hesitating, he held her closer and slept, holding her in his embrace. She seemed to be in a deep sleep to even realize what was happening, or rather it was the effect of medicines. 

Just then, Jiang Yuyan frowned lightly in her sleep as if she felt a pain and her eyebrows knitted together. 

Lu Lijun moved his hand that surrounded her to her abdomen. When he was a kid and had a stomach ache, Lu Qiang used to caress his stomach to make him feel better, and he thought it would work on Jiang Yuyan's pain too. 

Lu Lijun continued to caress her abdomen gently with his warm palm and soon after he noticed she seemed to be calm. Lu Lijun closed his eyes and continued to do the same till he fell asleep beside her.
