Lu Lian went back to her room and thought about how she could return Ming Rusheng’s stuff. She couldn’t tell it to anyone in the family as no one knew what happened and how that jacket and wallet came to Lu Mansion.

Only Jiang Yuyan knew it, but Lu Lian couldn’t dare talk about it to her as she had already gone through the humiliation because of it.

Lu Lian thought to get Ming Rusheng’s contact number from his sister Ming Lan and called her.

"Finally, you remembered me, huh?" came the voice from the other side of the line without even saying hello.

Lu Lian was expecting this as she hardly contacted Ming Lan even after getting so many messages from her.

"Sorry, I was just busy....."

"I was joking," Ming Lan Laughed as she interrupted apologetic Lu Lian and asked, "How are you?"

"I am fine...umm... I need one help," Lu Lian informed.

"Don’t tell me you need my brother’s contact number," Ming Lan teased.

"COUGH! COUGH!" Lu Lian felt a loss for words. "Well,...." she stopped.

"Really? Am I that accurate?" Ming Lan asked as she laughed.

"It’s not what you think," Lu Lian explained.

"Then what is it? When most of the girls call me and say they need my help, it’s always the same. Why do I have such a handsome brother?" Ming Lan sighed.

Lu Lian frowned. "Wait! You are getting me wrong, and I don’t find your brother handsome. I have seen enough handsome men in my family," Lu Lian countered as she felt wronged with Ming Lan’s accusation.

"Haha! I was pulling your leg. Calm down," said Ming Lan as she asked, "Can I ask why you need his number?"

"Once we happened to meet accidentally and by mistake, he left his things behind, I need to give him back," Lu Lian informed.

Not asking much in detail, Ming Lan agreed to give her brother’s contact number, "I already messaged you his number. Check it."

"Thank you." Lu Lian gave out a sigh of relief.

"Welcome, but I was right about one thing," said Ming Lan.

"What?"

"So many girls contact me out of the blue just to get my brother’s number, and it’s such a headache," Ming Lan replied.

"Why?" Curiosity filled Lu Lian.

"If I don’t give them my brother’s number, they keep troubling me, and if I give them a number to save myself from trouble, then I’m dead as my brother hates it," Ming Lan explained as she added, "I am fortunate to be alive knowing how short-tempered my brother is."

"I see. Thank you for the help," said Lu Lian as they hung up the call.

Ming Lan’s words seemed right to Lu Lian as she had witnessed the angry side of Ming Rusheng, and it worried her how she would call him and meet him.

’Should I parcel him the things? Will it look good? What will his family think? Should I parcel it to his office? Right, I can do this, but what if he will think I am rude? He helped me, so I should say thank you to him as he was drunk at that time. If not for him, god knows what would have happened with me.’

A shiver ran down her spine as she thought about it, and goosebumps covered her skin.

All these thoughts made Lu Lian’s mind chaotic, and she sighed deeply. With the idea of clearing her mind, she went to the garden where her grandpa instructed the gardener about planting the new plants.

"New plants grandpa," she asked.

Elder Lu nodded, "Yes, dear." Pausing for a while as they both continued looking at the plants being planted, elder Lu mumbled, "It’s time to bring change."

Lu Lian understood what her grandpa meant and asked, "Grandpa, can I ask you something?"

Elder Lu looked at her, "Sure."

"If someone helps you when you are in trouble, but that person doesn’t like to see you. Will you still go to the person and say words of gratitude?"

Elder Lu nodded, "I will," as he added, "It doesn’t matter if that person likes me or not, what matters the most that the person helped me when I was in trouble. So, being a responsible human, I will do my job whether the person will like it."

"You are right, grandpa. Thank you so much for helping me," said Lu Lian.

"I didn’t help you. You knew the answer already, but you just confirmed it with me. Even if I were not here to answer you, you would have done what you should because you are my granddaughter."

There was pride in elder Lu’s eyes for his granddaughter. He never said it as she was so young, but he knew Lu Lian was always a responsible child and acted wisely. He was still so amazed by how composed she was compared to the girls of her age. Elder Lu didn’t miss noticing what she did and how she handled the things.

"Thank you, grandpa, for thinking like this about me," she bowed as she was happy hearing it from her grandpa.

Elder Lu patted her head, "My granddaughter is a lovely young lady I am always proud of."

Both smiled and continued talking for a while.

The next day, Lu Lian thought to go to Ming Rusheng’s office to give his things back to him and say thank you for saving her. Attending the two classes, she left the university and went to the Ming industries head office.

Everyone was busy with their work, and no one noticed her much to think who she was. Lu Lian tried to be lowkey not to get seen as she was the daughter of the Lu family. Still being so young, the daughters were still away from recognized by everyone.

Stepping to the reception table, she looked at the two receptionists wearing the same dresses, white shirt, and a black bottom.

"How can I help you miss?" one of the receptionists sitting in her chair in front of the computer doing her work, asked politely.

"I am here to meet Mr. Ming Rusheng," Lu Lian replied hesitantly.

"Miss, can I ask if you have the appointment booked with him?" the receptionist asked.

"No. I am here to return something, so I...."

"Miss, you can’t meet Mr. Ming like this. We have to schedule the appointment for it," informed the receptionist.

"Umm...Okay...do it then," Lu Lian agreed as she didn’t wish to force them by showing her real identity that who she was.

’How easy it would have been to use my family’s name and...’ she sighed inwardly.

"Miss, you have to fill the form," said receptionist as she was ready to fill the information in the computer in front of her as she added, "I need to fill the information about who you are and will need the ID proof. Also, I need to fill the purpose of the meeting."

When the receptionist said ID proof and her information, Lu Lian’s face turned pale as it would reveal her identity and word might get out that the daughter of the Lu family came to meet the son of the Ming family.

’How annoying it is,’ Lu Lian sighed again.

Lu Lian was immersed in her world of conflicts, the receptionist spoke, "Miss, can I have the ID card?"

"Well.. I..don’t...."

"No need for the formality. I know her."

Suddenly the voice interrupted these women.
