Chapter 893 She Kept Him Alive Inside Her...
Ming Industries.
Lu Lian was handed over with work by Ming Rusheng"s a.s.sistant, as she was yet to have her a.s.sistant.
The project she would work on along with Ming Rusheng was going to be one creative piece of architecture, and she felt excited about it. Going through the project details, she forgot about how she was upset and unwilling to join Ming Industries, but now she felt good as good work was what she needed.
There was a meeting after some time which Lu Lian had to join. Ming Rusheng"s a.s.sistant was there to guide her as she was new, and his boss had ordered him to do his job better.
Ming Rusheng came out of his office, where he waited for Lu Lian. He had to follow his grandfather"s order to look after her, and he wished to help her till she got used to everything in the company.
Somewhere he felt that even if it were not his grandfather"s order, he would have done the same. He frowned at himself for feeling responsible for her, but he couldn"t help it.
Outside of the meeting hall, Ming Yusheng came across Lu Lian to whom she bowed.
"Welcome. Good to see you are ready to work here," said Ming Yusheng.
"My pleasure, Mr. Chairman," she replied.
"It"s okay to call me uncle as we are family," Ming Yusheng replied.
They stepped inside the meeting room, where others were already waiting for them.
Everyone stood up and bowed to them. Lu Lian was a new person for everyone; they felt curious to know who she was. Those were the company employees, the heads of different departments who were unaware of the kids from the wealthy families who never preferred to be in the limelight.
Ming Rusheng introduced everyone to Lu Lian.
"Welcome, Ms. Lu Lian."
Everyone bowed to her to welcome her. She looked royal, and if she had come along with their boss, that meant this woman was someone really important.
"Ms. Lu will work with us on this project, and I wish you all to cooperate with her."
Everyone nodded and soon took their seats. Ming Rusheng"s a.s.sistant pulled out the chair beside Ming Rusheng for Lu Lian to sit on it.
Ming Rusheng didn"t introduce her as the Lu family"s daughter, and Lu Lian felt relieved because she never liked to use her family"s name at her workplace.
It was a long rectangular table where Ming Rusheng sat at one end while his father sat at the other end, and Lu Lian sat on his one side.
The meeting started, where everyone discussed and proposed the ideas and designs to Ming Rusheng, where he instructed them with changes and indicated the lackings.
It was the first day of Lu Lian, so she just listened and observed everything. She noticed Ming Rusheng was not the same person she met years back and hated him. While working, he was different, and she couldn"t help but admire him the way he was explaining things to everyone.
He could handle everything single-handedly, and it showed why he was the most successful person in this business.
When she was in her thoughts to look out for his good points, the next moment, what he said about the women in her family and her deceased brother, rang in her ear that she shrugged the right thoughts about him and frowned inside.
After the meeting, it was lunchtime. The a.s.sistant went to Lu Lian"s office, where she was busy studying the project.
"Ms. Lu has been asked to be in the boss"s office," the a.s.sistant replied.
"For lunch?" she asked.
"Yes."
"Do all other employees have lunch with your boss?" she asked, looking back into the files.
"No."
"Then spare this employee too. I will order something for myself," she replied.
The a.s.sistant went back to his boss and informed him of what she said. Ming Rusheng was not surprised by it.
"It"s good she knows her place," Ming Rusheng spoke to himself and instructed his a.s.sistant, "Get that packed lunch to her and tell grandpa sent it."
The a.s.sistant did what his boss said. Upon hearing elder Ming sent the lunch, Lu Lian couldn"t refuse it.

Jiang Yuyan"s office.
Yun Fan again entered the office to remind the two busy people about the lunch.
"President Lu, you two will miss lunch."
Jiang Yuyan, who didn"t wish to eat, suddenly realized Lu Lijun was with her, and he was yet to have lunch.
"Arrange it," she instructed.
Yun Fan followed the order and arranged the lunch for them on the dining table inside the lounge.
Lu Lijun forgot about the lounge, but when Yun Fan said the lunch was ready inside the lounge, he remembered it.
Not waiting for Yuyan to get up, Lu Lijun stood up and went towards the lounge. In the past, he spent his time whenever he came to the office, and his brother used to be busy.
It was like a second home for him when he was so young, but he hardly had time to visit it when his school started.
The lounge was the same, and nothing was changed from before. Lu Lijun went to the wardrobe and saw the things he left there in the past, was still kept inside, and Jiang Yuyan had thrown nothing. The gadgets he used to have with him were still there.
He could see his brother"s clothes were still there along with his stuff. Not only his brother"s bedroom, his office, but this place was the same, and it was not the coincident as he could see Jiang Yuyan kept everything as it is.
He didn"t know if he should hate this woman to send him away and kill all emotions inside him or forgive her for keeping his brother alive inside her even after so many years.
Jiang Yuyan entered the lounge, and she looked at him.
"Do you need something?" she asked.
Her sight, her words weren"t like before when she used to care for him and made him feel she was doing everything for the sake of it. The soft side that developed inside his for just a moment disappeared, and he replied coldly.
"Nothing."
Both had lunch together silently, where they both didn"t talk or look at each other.
