Chapter 922 Idiot, Messing With My Brain...

Angry and upset, Lu Lijun wished to go away somewhere. He went to the seminar hall, which was the only empty place in the entire building. Sitting in the chair in that quiet place, he thought about what to do now. 

Though he had his return flight ticket booked for England, somewhere, he wanted to cancel it after spending his time with the family and with someone always around him. But, what he heard a while ago made him change his decision to stay back. 

Pulling out his cellphone, Lu Lijun called his agent to prepone his flight ticket. 

"Book my ticket for today," Lu Lijun instructed. 

"Sir, you can only get a ticket for tomorrow. No flight available today," the agent answered. 

"Book whatever is earliest," Lu Lijun said, and the man agreed. 

Calming himself down with the thought that he would be away from everything soon, Lu Lijun went to see his friend Noah. 

The moment Lu Lijun knocked and entered Noah's office, Noah stopped working and stood up as he bowed to Lu Lijun. 

"Good afternoon, fourth young master."

"Shut up," Lu Lijun sat in the chair opposite Noah. 

Noah could only smile and asked, "What's the thing that's bothering my boss?"

"Will you shut up, or I need to use my hands?" Lu Lijun warned. 

"Okay, I'll stop. But still, it won't look good if I call you by name," Noah spoke. 

"Don't worry about it. They hired you, knowing our friendship, so they have to bear with it. No need to change for the sake of useless formalities," Lu Lijun countered. 

Noah knew this was how Lu Lijun would react but didn't wish to miss the chance to annoy him. 

"Not for them but for me. It feels good to call you like that, fourth young master."

"Seems like you are missing your highness and giving me this much respect in his stead," came the sarcastic but teasing reply from Lu Lijun. 

Noah chuckled, "Missing him? My ass."

"He reached," Lu Lijun informed. 

"Hmm," there was no such reaction from Noah. He resumed his work, "For your kind information, I am here for work."

"Being with me is one of your responsibilities, and it will last till tomorrow."

Noah stopped working and looked at Lu Lijun, "Don't tell me….."

Lu Lijun's cell phone rang. It was from the agent who booked Lu Lijun's flight ticket.

"I am leaving tomorrow," Lu Lijun informed after he hung up the call.

"You should think about it again," Noah suggested. 

"I did already."

Noah had nothing to say, as forcing his stubborn friend was not even an option.

In Jiang Yuyan's office…

Jiang Yuyan received the call from San Zemin.

"Boss, the fourth young master, has booked return tickets for tomorrow," San Zemin informed. 

"Wasn't it a few days later?"

"Yes, but he changed it for tomorrow."

"I see." Jiang Yuyan hung up the call and leaned back in her chair. She turned the chair around and continued looking out through the glass wall behind her work table. 

She looked in deep thought, but at the same time, looked like she was calm and difficult to understand what she was thinking.

England…

Jake went to his father's office, where everyone greeted him as he was the prince Jacob, the future heir to this conglomerate. 

Not noticing others as if they didn't exist, the cold guy who was immersed in his chaotic thoughts straight went to his father's office. 

"When did you return?" asked the tall, grey-haired man who looked like in his early fifties. He wore a stylish business suit that matched his royal personality. 

His sharp feature, similar to Jake that was enough to show they were father and son. 

"A few hours before," Jake replied. 

"What's the matter?" his father asked. 

Jake was taken aback but replied calmly, "Nothing."

His father leaned back in a chair and stared at his son, who stood opposite him. 

"You are here suddenly when you never liked to be here and that too immediately after you reached England. That means you are here for something important."

"I want to work," Jake came straight to the point.

It surprised his father, "Did something happen?"

Not telling anything, Jake countered, "Isn't it what father always wished for?"

The older man nodded, "I do, but I want you to work when you are ready and not under any pressure."

Jake knew his father was always patient with him and let him do what he wished. He was thankful though he never said it to his father. 

"I am not under any pressure," Jake replied firmly. 

"As you wish."

"I'll be in my office," Jake informed and left. 

His father called his assistant and informed what to do. 

Jake went to his lavish European style designed office, which he hardly used, but it was always ready to welcome him. 

All he could think about was keeping himself busy with whatever he could, or he felt like going crazy. Whatever he tried, that certain someone's thought couldn't leave his mind. 

"That idiot. Messing with my brain," Jake mumbled and frowned.

Ming Industries… 

The current project that everyone was busy working on, it's design was getting ready. Lu Lian was handling the design part of the kid's play zone and the community center while Ming Ruseng worked on properly planning the entire thing along with other experts. 

The assistant had been appointed for Lu Lian. To tease Ming Rusheng, elder Ming planned to hire a man but dropped the plan as he wished Lu Lian to be comfortable and hired the woman assistant that was chosen one from the start. 

Getting the male assistants' files was just elder Lu's way to test his grandson, and he got a hundred percent positive result.

In the meeting, when they were done with corrections and new ideas for the shopping mall and corporate park, they waited for the community center and kids zone ideas. 

Ming Rusheng looked at Lu Lian, "Have you planned something?"

Lu Lian nodded, "Hmm," she passed the file in front of her to Ming Rusheng. He opened it and saw the rough design plan. 

She continued, "The kids play zone would be more focused on the quality as well as the safety where they can play without any restrictions and harm. For the plan, I have contacted the experts and are working on it." 

"Hmm," he nodded while going through the file. 

She then passed another file to him, "The community center, I plan to design it with a traditional Chinese touch. It would be modern but traditional also, like a fusion of both styles. The rough idea is ready but to plan it perfectly, I need to visit a few places to understand traditional style better."

Ming Rusheng went through the proposal here. There was nothing much to suggest, and he approved for her to go ahead and decide on it once the design was ready.

That day, Elder Ming attended the meeting too but observed everything quietly. He looked at both grandkids and saw how serious these two looked, but it was a good sign that worked with harmony. 

He was used to seeing his grandson workaholic but sensed the same thing from Lu Lian too. 

'If these two kept focusing on work only, then what would happen to the plan?' Elder Ming thought, 'I need to plan something.'
