Chapter 963: I Don't Have Time To Care For Anyone...

The caretaker put Lu Lian's dress on the chair, which was nicely folded and ironed.

"The clothes are ready. Ms. Lu can join for breakfast after getting ready," the caretaker informed.

Busy with her thoughts, Lu Lian nodded lightly, and the caretaker left.

Lu Lian got freshened up and ready to go out. All the while, she was thinking about why he didn't inform her before leaving. Was there something important that he had to leave? She felt worried for him and wished to return soon so she could meet him.

Lu Lian went to see Mr. Wong, who was waiting for her at the breakfast table.

"Morning, Ms. Lu," Mr. Wong greeted, sitting at the traditionally designed table.

Lu Lian smiled lightly to greet him, "Good Morning, Mr. Wong."

Mr. Wong didn't fail to notice the disappointment inside her, and he could understand the reason.

'That thoughtless brat left without informing anyone. He at least should have taken his woman with him. Poor girl,' Mr. Wong thought.

Lu Lian sat opposite Mr. Wong, where the caretaker served her breakfast.

"Let's start," Mr. Wong instructed, and Lu Lian nodded lightly.

"Did you sleep well last night?" Mr. Wong asked.

"Hmm," she nodded.

They finished breakfast, and Lu Lian was ready to leave after talking to Mr. Wong for a while.

Mr. Wong came to see her off. Just as they reached the car, Lu Lian remembered about her car's tyer, but then the security guard came to her with her car keys, "Mr. Ming has changed the tyre."

Lu Lian silently accepted the keys, and they said bye to Mr. Wong. Just as she was about to sit in the car, Mr. Wong spoke.

"Ms. Lu, once the project is finished, you can come here to ask all the questions you want to."

Lu Lian nodded and left.

Mr. Wong looked at the caretaker, who was also there to bid farewell to Lu Lian.

"Once the work in the home is over, make sure to keep one room ready with everything," Mr. Wong instructed.

"For..."

"Soon, we can expect to get a guest, and this time I don't wish them to have any trouble," Mr. Wong replied.

"Wasn't the trouble good for them?" the caretaker asked.

"Looks like it," Mr. Wong replied, looking at the car disappearing from his sight.

At the same time, Lu Mansion...

Jiang Yuyan came downstairs for breakfast. Seeing her in an office dress, everyone felt surprised.

"Are you planning to go to the office?" elder Lu asked.

"Yes, grandpa. I'm fine now," she replied.

"You should rest, Yuyan. Your hand is yet to recover," Ning Jiahui added.

"I won't work much, mother," she insisted.

Lu Lijun came downstairs and saw Jiang Yuyan. Looking at her attire, he understood she was going to the office.

Ning Jiahui was not happy with it as she wanted Jiang Yuyan to rest, "Yuyan, but still..."

"I'll handle the work. Don't worry, mother," Lu Lijun spoke.

"Then look after her too," Ning Jiahui instructed.

Lu Lijun just nodded lightly and went towards the dining room for breakfast.

As he assured, there was nothing to say, so no one stopped Jiang Yuyan.

In the office...

Jiang Yuyan was getting updates from Xiao Min and wished to look into the project.

"Get me the files," Jiang Yuyan instructed.

"Fourth young master asked for everything, and he had instructed not to trouble the president with anything," Xiao Min informed.

Jiang Yuyan glared at him, "Who is your boss?"

"But, the fourth young master is now in charge of the project," Xiao Min informed calmly.

"Get me other ones," Jiang Yuyan instructed.

Xiao Min was ready to get an angry reply reaction from his boss with what he would say the next, "Since past few days, the fourth young master is looking into it so..."

"Seems like you have already decided to change your boss," Jiang Yuyan frowned.

"Boss, I think he wishes you to rest," Xiao Min informed.

"He doesn't need to worry about me," Jiang Yuyan said coldly.

Just then, someone entered the room.

"I don't have time to care for anyone. I just don't like anyone to meddle in my work when I'm handling it."

That was Lu Lijun, who entered the office and heard the conversation before entering the room.

Though his words were sarcastic, they didn't seem cold. It looked like he cared for her but didn't wish to show it.

Xiao Min, too was on Lu Lijun's side as he wanted his stubborn boss to rest and stay away from work for a while.

Jiang Yuyan didn't reply to him and focused on the laptop screen as she worked on it with her one hand.

Xiao Min knew how stubborn his boss could so he thought to leave her to another stubborn person in the room, the fourth young master. He might be the only person who could handle his boss.

"I'll have to arrange for the meeting," bowing Xiao Min left.

Lu Lijun was holding one file in hand. Going towards Jiang Yuyan's table, he opened the file and put it on the table.

"Short summary of everything that president Lu should know about," Lu Lijun informed.

Jiang Yuyan didn't look at him but looked at the file, "Xiao Min would have brought it to me," she commented.

"As long as I remember, I'm the one assisting president Lu, and I don't have a habit of leaving my work half done," Lu Lijun countered.

Jiang Yuyan said nothing and looked into the file. With one hand, she continued changing the pages while looking into the data and information.

Subconsciously Lu Lijun continued staring at her. He knew there was no need for him to come to her personally, but he couldn't stop himself.

Why was he there then? Was he worried for her? he continued thinking, then shook his head and thought, 'Mother asked me to look after her, so...."

"This one?" Jiang Yuyan spoke, pointing towards something in the file, and Lu Lijun snapped out of his thoughts.

She looked at him finally and spoke, "You need to look into it."

Finally, she looked at him, and their sights met.

'She only looks at me when it's about work.'

Thinking, Lu Lijun went onto her side of the table as it would be easy to see what she was talking about and less stressful for her as she had only one hand to work with.

Lu Lijun stood beside her and looked into the file.

"What president Lu suggest?" Lu Lijun asked.

"The one claimed to handle it and doesn't like others to meddle in their work, should find the answer by themselves," Jiang Yuyan commented and landed back in her chair.

Lu Lijun understood she was using his words on him but didn't mind it.

Observing the data where Jiang Yuyan pointed, Lu Lijun picked up the file, "Half hour," he said and left.

Jiang Yuyan smiled lightly and resumed her work.
