Chapter 994 - His Final Decision...

In the Ming Industries office…

There was a knock on Ming Rusheng's office door, and elder Ming entered the office.

"I hope I am not disturbing you?" elder Ming asked, smiling lightly.

Ming Rusheng looked at his grandpa, "Isn't grandpa here to do the same?"

Getting a sarcastic reply from his grandson was nothing new for the elder Ming. "Can you stop me from disturbing you?" Elder Ming asked as he sat on the couch.

"I dare not," Ming Rusheng replied and asked, "I'm sure there must be a reason behind this sudden visit."

Not explaining, Elder Ming instructed, "Join me here."

Ming Rusheng closed the file he was working on and stood up to go to his grandpa as he sat opposite to him.

Ming Rusheng waited for his grandpa to talk.

"I'm here to discuss something important and for the last time," Elder Ming said.

"Tell me, grandpa."

"What do you think about Lu Lian?" Elder Ming directly jumped to the point.

"She is a nice and hardworking woman," Ming Rusheng replied casually.

Elder Ming sighed, not getting an expected reply, "You know what I mean, so talk about it."

"Grandpa, If you are here to ask me if there is something possible between her and me, then my answer is No." Ming Rusheng replied he looked serious as he meant what he said.

"Why not," Elder Ming asked and added, "From what I see, I can see you like her and care for her."

What elder Ming said was the truth, so Ming Rusheng couldn't deny it, but he didn't even want to admit it.

"What grandpa saw is because I was making up for my mistake of hurting her. Also, she fell sick because of me, so I had to treat her well, and I can't forget she is from the Lu family."

"Are you sure about it?" Elder Ming asked.

"Hmm."

Elder Ming sighed in disappointment and concluded, "So you don't want to marry her."

Ming Rusheng nodded, "I can't."

"Is it the final decision?" Elder Ming made sure again, as he asked, looking straight into his grandson's eyes.

Staring back at his grandpa, Ming Rusheng replied confidently, "Yes."

Elder Ming felt utterly disappointed and stood up, "Well then, I'll leave. You carry on your work."

Ming Rusheng felt bad for disappointing his grandpa and stood up, "I'm sorry, grandpa."

"You don't need to. It's not like I can force you to marry her," Elder Ming turned and stepped towards the door, while Ming Rusheng kept looking at his grandpa.

While saying no to his grandpa, the confidence Ming Rusheng had, disappeared in a moment as his eyes carried the sadness of losing something important.

Lu Corporation…

Xiao Min went to Lu Lijun's office to inform him about the upcoming meeting. Being busy with his work, Lu Lijun looked at him, and Xiao Min bowed to greet him.

Keeping one file in front of Lu Lijun, Xiao Min informed, "These are few details about the new project we will start by collaborating with a European company. We have a meeting regarding it in a while, so President Lu asked the Fourth young master to be there."

Lu Lijun picked up the file to go through it, and just then, Xiao Min's sight followed the wristwatch on Li Lijun's wrist. The wristwatch was very familiar and reminded him about someone, but Xiao Min was unsure if he was right.

"I'll be there," Lu Lijun informed, going through the file, but there was no reply from Xiao Min.

Lu Lijun looked at Xiao Min questioningly and noticed Xiao what Xiao Min was looking at.

"You are right. It belongs to my elder brother. It's a birthday gift from President Lu," Lu Lijun answered Xiao Min's unspoken question and pulled him out of the thoughts.

Xiao Min looked at Lu Lijun, "It suits you."

Lu Lijun was taken aback by this loyal assistant, who turned cold just like his current boss and did nothing or talked nothing more than what his boss had instructed him; finally, he talked about something which was not related to his work.

"I know," Lu Lijun agreed, and Xiao Min turned to leave, but Lu Lijun called him.

"Xiao Min."

Xiao Min turned around, "Yes, fourth young master."

"Do we have any other new project going on with Wen's?" Lu Lijun asked.

"For now, there is none. The latest one is what the fourth young master is working on," Xiao Min replied, not knowing why Lu Lijun asked it.

"In Florence?" Lu Lijun asked again.

Jiang Yuyan went to Florence with Wen Zac, so Lu Lijun was curious to know it.

"Not there too," Xiao Min assured.

Lu Lijun acted as if he was just casually asking it and didn't mean much. "President Lu and Mr. Wen went to Florence…."

"It was not related to business," Xiao Min informed, not revealing any details about why Jiang Yuyan went there.

"Then?" Lu Lijun asked.

"I'm not sure," Xiao Min replied, and Lu Lijun understood Xiao Min wouldn't say anything.

Lu Lijun paused for a while and asked again, "What kind of a person Mr. Wen Zac is?"

"He is a good person and one of the business partners, that boss trusts a lot when it comes to business," Xiao Min replied.

Lu Lijun somewhere knew it, and getting confirmation from Xiao Min was the end of it. 'Other than Wen Zac, she didn't meet anyone if there was no business involved, so Wen Zac must be an important person for her or.... a special for her,' he thought.

"You can leave," Lu Lijun instructed as he looked back into the file, intending to work, and he had nothing more to ask.

Just as Xiao Min left, Lu Lijun put back the file and confirmed himself with certain things like the marriage talk going on regarding Jiang Yuyan must be true.

He didn't like it but again consoled himself, saying, 'Whatever. It doesn't concern me.'

Whatever and however he tried, he could never control that hidden anger and frustration inside him, which was piling up a bit by bit, ready to explode one day.
