Mentor (4)

" Jie jie..! Jie Jie!!!!"

The little boy ran towards Lina. She turned back to see Little Ranran calling her name. She shushed him to keep silent. The boy slowly sat beside her.

"Someone asked about yeye. " Ranran, the boy whispered to her ear after opening his drawing books and pointed outside.

Lina was suspiciously turned around. How could anyone possibly look for shifu here! She quickly took a glance outside and checked the surroundings.

But there was none.

" Are you sure they asked for Yeye ? Who was it ?" Lina asked the little boy who was now busy with coloring.

" A tall man. Whiye shirt. A black sunglass... Another one with a black coat..... Wait a minute jie jie. " the boy got busy in drawing something.

Lina sent a message to the management to look for any suspicious person found in the cctvs around the studio. But right then Ranran tugged her sleeves.

" hmm... done... Jie jie... look here."

The little chubby boy Zhang YiRan aka Ranran showed his drawing book to Lina. There was picture of a young man around her age. Most of his face was covered in a large sunglass.

Oh! Sorry. I forgot to mention. Zhang YiRan had this amazing ability developed in his early childhood. He could draw anything he had seen once in his life. For this absolute awesome ability, Ranran became quite close to Lina. Cause she herself was somehow similar to him since childhood.

Lina looked at the picture for quite some time. The sharp features behind the sunglass reminded her of someone very familiar but she was unable to figure out who exactly it was.

" This guy also asked for you." Ranran stated " asked me how to contact yeye."

" You told them?" Lina asked subconsciously still gazing over the artwork Ranran just made.

" No way. I told them to go to the reception."

" Good job Ranran. " Lina slightly pinched his chubby cheeks.

" Ah.. yes.. Jie he also gave me this. " YiRan shyly took out the candy he had taken from the man.

Lina saw a very familiar candy wrapped in a green paper in his hand.

" It is your favourite one. So I asked him for another one."

Lina was happy that the little boy remembered her preference and brought some for her.

" But Ranran you know right you should not receive things from strangers. " Lina ruffled his hair.

" I know Nana Jie. That's why I observed him closely in case it was harmful. So that I can draw his picture for police later. You know I'm a smart guy. " The little boy proudly flexed his muscles .

Lina smiled and whispered to him " Okay, I know, my little Ranran is a smart guy. Thank you for the chocolate. Now look closely. Yeye is teaching something new today!"

" Really!? Uff Jie Jie! Why didn't you tell me before. You made me late." The boy then gave all of his attention to the old man who was still busy with his brush. He was passionate about painting.

Lina stared at the chocolate in her hand for the next few minutes before giving concentration on the canvas.

" Mr. Lu. We are extremely sorry. But it's not convenient for us. Please try to understand. He does not wish to meet up with anyone." Mr. Feng tried to convince Lu Yang in the office.

It was strict order from the higher authorities. Only the visitors permitted by Ye YuKhei himself could meet him.

" It's impossible Mr. Lu. Actually Mr. Ye doesn't like to entertain guests that much. " He told Lu Yang while trying to contact higher authorities on the phone.

Lu Yang came with Assistant Mu. Who was a well known face in the buisness world. He was directly linked to the CEO of Lu industries. Mr.Feng identified at first glance. But about the identity of the young man in front of him, Mr. Feng was still clueless.

More than that, Assistant Mu was addressing him as 'sir' , which made his eyes twitching. The surname 'Lu' was hard to ignore in C-country. Mr. Feng decided to call Nanxian himself.

Although Nanxian wasn't sure about the identity of the man, he suggested Mr. Feng to contact Ye YuKhei after hearing that assistant Mu was also there. Nanxian was aware of the intimate relationship between the 'Lu' family and 'Ye' family.

Mr. Feng then finally contacted Ye YuKhei over phone.

" Sir, there is one Mr. Lu want to visit you ."

- .....

- " Sir, I told him that you are busy . But.. "

- ...

- " Yes Sir, I understood. "

- ...

" I'm sorry sir. Mr. Ye is not available today. Please make appointment beforehand next time." Mr. Feng apologetically looked at Yang lowering the phone.

" Is he still on the line? Then.... Just tell him Adora is trying to get in touch. I hope he will change his decision. after this..."

Lu Yang gave him a sly knowing smile.

" Huh ... ! Yes Sir... Yeah .. He is....? okay... Yeah.. I understand... " Mr. Feng strangely looked at Lu Yang. But soon after his facial expressions took a 180 degree turn.

"Sir, he is saying that Adora is trying to..... Ah ..what.? yeah.... okay... Yes sir..right away... okay sir." Mr. Feng gave a surprised smile to Yang after hanging up the phone.

" I'm sorry for the inconveniences Mr. Lu. He is waiting for you. " Mr. Feng politely smiled at him and led him the way personally.

" This way sir. " He walked him towards a lakeside villa behind the studio.

That nurse from before received him from the gate. Nurse Qin was seemingly surprised to meet him again. She couldn't have ever imagined him to be that important guest Ye YuKhei was impatiently waiting for.

" Sorry for the inconveniences before. Please have a seat Mr. Lu. Mr. Ye will meet you in a few minutes. " The nurse led them to the living room.

The villa was attached to the studio from before. Actually there was an entrance to the living room straight from the studio.

Lu Yang took a seat in the sofa and explored the hall.

As expected of the world famous artist Lucas Ye. The room was beautifully decorated. The front was just beside the lake. The view was beautiful. The room had touch of ancient mythological culture mixed with modern architecture. He got busy in observing a Buddha statue placed on the wall behind him.
