As Ming Rusheng waited for her to talk, Lu Lian inhaled deeply, as she exhaled and continued.

"As you have remarked on the women in the Lu Family, let me say something about you, and I hope you won't disturb me and listen to everything like how I listened to you."

"Go ahead," instructed Ming Rusheng as he thought what this young girl could say. He underestimated her already.

"You are a man full of yourself, who can't think or see anything other than himself," Lu Lain commented as she stared at Ming Rusheng in his eyes, and he gave her questioning look with his one eyebrow curved up.

Lu Lian didn't stop.

"I know I am late to return the things, but there was a certain situation in my family, and I couldn't, but I still apologize for being late. When I came here, I was expecting rude behavior from you, but somewhere I still expected humanity or cut some slack for us being relatives, but it was again my mistake to expect it from a man like you."

Ming Rusheng continued listening without disturbing as he assured her already.

"As you said, I already know you don't need these things, and I had decided not to return it, but before throwing them away, I believed to check once if there was something that can be valuable for you. I found one old picture with a kid with his grandfather and thought that picture must be valuable for you as no one roams around carrying old pictures in the wallet without any reason. But it was my mistake again as I failed to understand that a person like you won't even think about such things. I should have just throw it in the trash can as it would be the right place for them."

After mentioning the picture with his grandpa, there was a change in Ming Rusheng's cold sight, but he kept quiet to listen to her till the end and hid his emotions. Moreover, the way this girl talked with so much confidence in front of him, it didn't fail to amaze him.

"There is one more reason why I am here," she stopped and waited for him to say something, but she got his silence in return.

Lu Lian continued with the same attitude and confidence, "I have grown up with the good teaching where I have been taught, even if someone who helps you is trash, one should never forget to show gratitude. I genuinely wished to say thank you for saving me that night, but it seems like it was again my mistake. Next time if we cross a path, and even if I am about to die, don't dare to help me because I will prefer dying instead of being saved by a person like you and which will force me to come to you and show my gratitude again."

Lu Lian was almost breathless because of continuous talking. Even she didn't know how and why she was talking this much when she was here just to say thank you.

'Did this man just provoked the devil inside me? What was the need of looking down at women in my family and my brother,' she thought as she looked at him, catching her breath.

Staring at her, Ming Rusheng signaled her to look at the water bottle, placed on the glass center table between them as he wanted to continue listening to her.

Lu Lian picked up the water bottle, had a few sips, stood up as she pulled out the money from her bag, and kept it on the center table.

"This is for the water bottle, as I don't wish to owe you anything."

She then picked up the shopping bag she brought with her, "I will throw it at its right place," and stepped towards the office door while Ming Rusheng could only look at her in amazement.

There was a trash can on the right side of the door. Lu Lian crunched the bag to make it fit into that small trash can, then stepped at the peddle of the trashcan to lift its lid and dropped the bag.

Just as she was about to open the door to go out, she stopped but didn't turn to look at Ming Rusheng as he waited to know why she stopped.

"My brother, however, you thought about him, for me, he was the best man in this world who sacrificed his life to save his loved ones, unlike the man who is selfish and rude. I consider myself fortunate to be his sister, so next time think before you talk about him."

Warning Lu Lian left the office while Ming Rusheng came out of the daze and stepped towards the trash can to pick up the bag that Lu Lian dropped.

Opening the bag, he pulled out his wallet from it and searched for the picture that he treasured for so many years and almost forgot that he lost it.

When he looked at the picture, the smile painted on his face, as it was precious for him precisely what Lu Lian thought.

'Should I be thankful to her for bringing it back to me?' as he thought the next moment, his brain said something else, 'No need. She was the reason I lost it.'

Just then, a voice disturbed him and pulled out of his conflicted thoughts.

"Good to see there is a woman in this world who can bash at you, and you listened to everything quietly."

Getting out of the office, Lu Lian rushed towards the elevator, and the moment she entered the elevator, and its door closed, she felt like her legs lost their strength.

She stood holding the horizontal steel support rods attached to the sides of the elevator and tried to calm herself down.

Her heart was beating faster, and her body felt out of energy. She had never talked to someone like this and how she could speak to him while sitting in his own home office. Was she asking for death?

All these thoughts were making her crazy. Collecting herself, she left the Ming industries office, and the moment she sat inside the cab, she promised to herself.

'I will never come here ever again.'
