It was time to leave for the farmhouse. Everyone came downstairs but Lu Lijun and Jiang Yuyan.

Lu Lijun came out of his room with a bag, and just then, the servant came out of Jiang Yuyan's room with one bag.

Ignoring, Lu Lijun stepped to go ahead, but the servant called, "Fourth young master, the bag."

"No need."

Rejecting the servant's offer, Lu Lijun was about to leave, but the servant pleaded again, "Please fourth young master, let me do my job."

Seeing the servant bowing down to him and pleading, Lu Lijun handed him over his bag.

The servant left, and Jiang Yuyan came out of her room. Lu Lijun looked at her, but the next moment turned to leave.

Not minding it as if it didn't matter to her, Jiang Yuyan continued walking, Lu Lijun ahead, and she was behind him at a few steps distance.

Though Lu Lijun didn't show it, his ears were taking a note of each of her steps that were following him. He could feel her every moment without even looking at her. Everything seems like it had stopped, and the only thing he could hear or feel was her.

When they reached the first floor, a small figure collided with Lu Lijun. Lu Lijun held the little guy before he would fall, "Watch out."

Weiwei looked up at Lu Lijun, "I knew uncle would hold me."

The chubby kid smiled brightly that Lu Lijun couldn't even feel annoyed at him.

Before Lu Lijun could say anything further, the kid ran towards Jiang Yuyan, behind Lu Lijun.

Weiwei looked at her head to toe, "Aunt Yuyu is the prettiest."

Jiang Yuyan didn't know how to react. Lu Lijun heard it too. Not turning to look at those two, Lu Lijun stepped ahead and went downstairs.

"We should go," Jiang Yuyan instructed, and Weiwei held her hand, "Let's go."

While coming downstairs, everyone in the living room saw Weiwei holding Jiang Yuyan's hand. The surprising thing was, she allowed him to do whatever he wanted.

"This time, she agreed to come with us, or I thought she wouldn't come," Elder Lu spoke.

"Today is a miracle day," Lu Chen added, and others agreed.

Lu Lijun heard it but acted as if he didn't know what they were talking about. Seeing Lu Feng near the Mansion door, talking to the driver, Lu Lijun went to him.

Before getting into the car as everyone was ready, Weiwei went to Lu Lijun.

"I want to talk to you, uncle," he informed.

"Say it," Lu Lijun instructed. He was not cold, but he was not soft either, thinking Weiwei was just a kid.

Holding his hand, Weiwei took Lijun away from everyone and spoke, "My aunt told me you and aunt were good friends, and you two used to have lots of fun."

Saying the little guy stopped, and Lu Lijun waited for him to finish.

"I want to be friends with aunt Yuyu and have fun with her," Weiwei said.

"Then go to her," Lu Lijun said coldly.

"She doesn't talk much and sometimes looks scary too. But I like her a lot. I want you to tell me how to be her friend," said Weiwei, his face carrying pleading expressions.

"There is nothing to like about her. Go get the friends of your age."

Commenting, Lu Lijun was about to turn, but Weiwei held his hand to stop him.

"My friends are not pretty like her."

The moment Lu Lijun turned, his sight happened to fall on Jiang Yuyan, who was ready to get inside her car. He found himself unable to move his sight away from her.

She was wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, and her hair tied in a ponytail. There was nothing exceptional she did, but why were his eyes found unable to look somewhere else.

When Lu Lijun was immersed in his world, the little guy let go of his hand and ran towards Jiang Yuyan's car that pulled Lu Lijun out from his thoughts.

"Weiwei, be careful," He Kun said in a loud voice when she saw her son running.

Weiwei reached the car before Jiang Yuyan could sit inside, "Aunt Yuyu, I want to go in your car."

Nodding lightly, Jiang Yuyan stepped back and let him climb inside the car first as she helped him.

"Thank you, aunt Yuyu," the little guy looked happy.

"He troubles her too much. I need to scold him…." He Kun spoke.

"No need. Let him be with her," elder Lu instructed. "There is at least someone she gives in to and might make her smile like before."

Everyone sat inside the cars and left for the destination. The farmhouse was not far, and it was just outside of the city where it took hardly one and a half hours to reach.

We should have asked our friends to join in too," Lu Feng spoke as both brothers sat lazily in the back passenger seat.

Just then, Jiang Yuayn's car came in side by side with Lu Feng's car on the side of Lu Lijun.

He noticed Jiang Yuyan was going through a file while Weiwei was sitting beside her eating something.

Seeing Jiang Yuyan, Lu Lijun remembered something and commented back on what Lu Feng just said, "There was no need. It's family time with grandma."

Lu Feng's cell phone rang, and he continued talking about his work while Lu Lijun continued staring at Jiang Yuyan's car, which was sometimes with them or ahead of them. His eyes used to glue to the side view mirror or the rearview mirror whenever the car was behind them.

This continued for a long time. The car stopped at one place where again, Jiang Yuyan's car stopped beside them. She leaned back in the chair with her eyes closed while Weiwei was sleeping, resting his head on Jiang Yuyan's lap.

Lu Lijun frowned as he stared at them, but just then, Lu Feng talked to him.

"Are you enjoying assisting the project?"

"It's going good," Lu Lijun answered.
