Lu Lijun returned to the office from Jiang Yuyan's home. The security guards were surprised to see him there this early. They remembered Lu Lijun had left in the middle of the night and returned just a few hours later. 

Lu Lijun went straight to the President's office, whose passcode he already knew as Jiang Yuyan had asked him to sleep in the lounge if he stayed in the office and even had asked to use his brother's clothes. 

Though Lu Lijun had only a few hours of sleep, he felt fresh than ever; after all, he had spent those few hours with the woman he loved, his wife. He pulled out the clothes from the wardrobe, and then thought struck his mind. 

'I should add my clothes here too. Husband and wife can share the same wardrobe, can't it?' 

With his mind feeling at ease and the day seems to be brighter than ever, Lu Lijun went to have a bath. 

-------

Soon before the office hours started as Noah entered Lu Lijun's office, carrying the food parcel with him. 

He kept the food parcel on the table and said, "For you."

"You are a good assistant," Lu Lijun replied as he picked up the food parcel and took it to the coffee table in the office.

"Someone is starving. It seems like the night went well," Noah commented as he remembered how he didn't wish to eat yesterday, and Jiang Yuyan had to call him to eat something while today he himself was willing to eat.

"Night spent with your wife is always the best. Try it," said Lu Lijun as he opened the parcels.

"I daily sleep with my woman," Noah countered as he went to the coffee table.

"I was talking about you are sleeping with your guy," Lu Lijun teased. 

Noah, as usual, didn't respond and spoke, "Though you are on cloud nine, don't eat all of it. I am yet to have breakfast."

The two quietly had breakfast. 

---------

Jiang Yuyan woke up late and felt dizzy due to the weakness she felt. The butler came to her and greeted, "Morning, Young Mistress. How are you feeling now?"

"Good."

Xiao Min came there too, ready in his office attire. He was about to greet her; the two men heard her talking, "Did someone come here in the night?"

Xiao Min felt his palm sweaty and answered, "Yes. I came to check on the boss."

She looked confused and touched her forehead.

"Boss, I will help you get to the bathroom," Xiao Min said to divert her attention.

She stood up from the bed. Xiao Min helped her walk and informed, "Everything is prepared. If anything, I am here."

Nodding slightly, Jiang Yuyan entered the bathroom. When she stood under the shower, she again touched her forehead and her stomach. She felt weird and didn't know what it was.

She had her breakfast and medicines and was ready to work as she asked Xiao Min, "Bring whatever work is there."

"Boss is on two days' leaves, so there is no work for her," Xiao Min replied.

Jiang Yuyan didn't argue as she didn't feel like she could even work and cursed in her mind, 'Damn these periods, I wish I never get them ever.'

-----

Ming Mansion.

The entire family sat together to have breakfast. Ming Lan sat with her head lowered down and quietly munching on the food as Elder Ming's gaze was fixed on her.

"Do you think by lowering your head, you can hide?" Elder Ming asked. 

"No, grandpa. The food is just so tasty, so I can  not stop eating," she replied, hesitating. 

"This time, you are not returning and staying with your family," Elder Ming ordered.

"Grandpa, but my work….."

"I don't mind you continuing your social work, but while doing that one should not forget their family," Elder Ming said.

Ming Lan looked at her parents and brother, but no one seemed to be going against her grandfather's words.

"We have our own huge charity organization. You can continue working there and do what you feel is right. I will transfer all the rights to you."

"N-No, grandpa. I don't want it. I want to help those where it's not easy to reach to offer help and need our personal attention."

"So for that, you will keep wandering all around the world your entire life?" Elder Ming asked.

"Not really," she mumbled.

"I know you. If we don't ask you, you won't even bother returning home. I would be fortunate if you manage to see me when I take my last breath."

Ming Lan felt guilty, "Grandpa, don't talk like that."

"Then listen to what I say," said Elder Ming. There was no reply to her pleading expressions, and she could only nod.

Ming Rusheng was silent and only ate his food. 

"Why are you like this? Did something happen?" Elder Ming asked, and Ming Lan felt relieved that finally, her grandpa spared her. 

"I am fine," replied Ming Rusheng. 

Ming Lan was sure he was not fine and thought to talk to him about it later.

----

In the Ming industries office. 

Ming Lan accompanied her brother to the office as she was sure she would be bored in the home. 

When they reached the office, as usual at the elevator, they came across Lu Lian. They greeted each other where Lu Lian treated Ming Rusheng like her boss only.

Just as they got into the elevator, Ming Lan asked, "You are looking so bright. It seems like your dinner date went really well." As she said it, Ming Lan didn't forget to glance at her brother's reaction. 

"It was good," Lu Lian replied, not denying that it was not a date. As she was going to date Wen Zac anyways, then let it be.

Ming Rusheng stood cold-faced, there was a change in his expressions, and Ming Lan caught her brother. 

"Well, good to know. Let me see a wedding before I return," Ming Lan commented, and Lu Lian just smiled.

There was a storm inside Ming Rusheng that he suppressed with much effort. When the elevator stopped at the desired floor, he hurried to get out of it, leaving the two women behind.

-----

Before lunch, Lu Lijun called Xiao Min and asked without even letting him greet him. "Is your boss awake?"

"Yes."

"Did she have breakfast?"

"Hmm."

"How is she feeling now?"

"Why don't the fourth young master ask her himself," Xiao Min said as he knew Lu Lijun would not call her as he didn't wish her to know he was here. There was no way he knew, and he wouldn't come here to see her.

"Good Idea," said Lu Lijun that surprised Xiao Min, and he heard Lu Lijun again, "You were the one to inform me about her not being well." Lu Lijun hung up the call, not letting Xiao Min say anything.

-------

Jiang Yuyan was lying in her bed, but sleep didn't come to her. The pain she felt was annoying, and she felt like kicking and breaking everything around.

The butler came to her to ask if she would like to have lunch but heard her ordering him, "Give me a pain killer."

The butler nodded and pulled out the medicine pack. She sat in the bed, and just then, her cellphone rang. She looked at the cellphone kept on the bedside table, and Lu Lijun's name flashed on the cellphone screen.

She frowned, 'Why is he calling me now?' Ignoring, she put her hand forward to get medicine from the butler who was yet to take it out. 

"Young Mistress, attend the call. Till then, I will get water for you," the butler went to get water for her that was kept on the coffee table in the room. 

Jiang Yuyan picked up the mobile and received the call. She cleared her throat before talking so that her voice would not sound weak.

"Hello," she answered the call, trying to keep her voice as normal as she could. 

"How are you feeling now?" Lu Lijun asked directly.

Just then, Xiao Min came there in a hurry after he finished talking with Lu Lijun. He didn't expect Lu Lijun to call Jiang Yuyan for real. If she gets to know he was the one to tell Lu Lijun she was not well, she might scold him. Poor guy was like a sandwich between them.

Before answering, Jiang Yuyan looked at Xiao Min, who looked apologetic. 

"I am fine," she answered.

"Still in pain?"

Cough! Cough!

His question was a shock for her. Seeing her coughing, Butler hurried with a glass of water. Patting her chest, she accepted the glass and took her time while she heard him again from the other side of the line.

"What happened? Are you not well? I am coming there," he said.

"No," she exclaimed and immediately changed her tone to a calmer one, "No need. I am fine."

She kept glaring at Xiao Min, and he understood he had dug a grave for himself. And this other guy on the phone, how easily he asked her if she was in pain. 

'Ahh! So embarrassing,' she screamed inside.

Lu Lijun seemed to listen to her, and she said, "You focus on work. Don't worry about me."

"Why didn't you answer my previous question?" Lu Lijun asked. 

"I said, I am fine," she countered annoyingly.

"Is it that embarrassing to tell me about it?" he asked, and she turned silent. 

'Gosh, this kid. It's not embarrassing but talking to you about it sure is.'

"I am hanging up," she said and was about to hang up the call and heard him again.

"Fine, I will come there to check if you are in pain or not. I might help to relive it."

It shocked her. "No. I am fine….I mean, there is no pain….I'll be fine soon."

"Are you telling the truth?" he asked.

"I mean...pain is there, but it will be fine."

Only if she could see the wide grin on Lu Lijun's face, like an obedient wife, she answered him.

"Hmm, take a rest and eat well," Lu Lijun said.

"I will," she said softly. 

"Did you have lunch?"

"Not yet," she replied.

"I hope you won't skip it."

"I won't."

"Take care."

"Hmm."

Such a peaceful and short conversation. There was nothing more to talk about. After a moment of silence, both hung up the call without saying bye. As if they knew they could hang up without informing.

After the call, Jiang Yuyan was silent as she stared at the cellphone screen for a moment. Though he was annoying, his words were caring. She didn't know what to feel about it and seemed to be in a daze.

"Boss," Xiao Min said, ready to get a scolding from Jiang Yuyan.

"You can leave," she said and lay back in bed.

It shocked Xiao Min that his boss didn't scold him.

"Boss, fourth young master…."

"It's fine. Let me rest now," she interrupted him and closed her eyes.

Feeling relieved, Xiao Min left. The butler, who was waiting for her to finish the call and then to give her medicines, placed it on the bedside table and left quietly.

Once they left, Jiang Yuyan opened her eyes and stared at the window that showed the view outside. She was in pain, but something was there that she suddenly felt happy and unknown to her, a light smile painted on her lips.
