"Do not get me started with what you did, I am beyond disappointed in you!" An old lady around shouted across the room, at the aloof man sitting behind his desks in the study room.

Old Granny shook her head as she held her chest, breathing heavily. She did not know what to say to his son, no matter what he did. She has never once interfere with any of his decisions, but this time round after coming back from florida. She had heard some news in the family, and she was beyond upset at her son.

Louise Evans sat had on a stoic expression as he continue to browse through the documents that was piling up on his table, seeing her son not bothering about her. She sighed helplessly, she had always been helpless in front of her aloof son.

Only his day was able to talk things out with him, but sadly his day passed on early. Leaving no one to control him, unruly and ruthless. "Done?" Louise Evans placed the document on his hand on the desks before raising his head to stare at his mother.

Old Granny stood speechless, looking at the man in wide eye. 'Done?' she could not believed he had asked her that questioned, it made it seems like she was blabbering bullsh*t. Seeing there was no response from his mother, he stood up and head towards the door.

"Reassured, nothing will happened" With that he left the room, leaving behind a worried and stunned old granny behind.

'What does he meant by that?' no matter how she thinks, nothings makes sense to her.

Z.D.Y Corp,

Song Yu was on a call with the supplier in the European market, regarding her venture in London. As she had been delaying her business in London, there was a lot of things requires her to settle. Thinking about that her mind drove off to her and Gu Chen, while still listening to Mr George.

There was only a few days left before she had to leave for the states, she do not know what was happening to her. But she felt a tightening feeling in her heart, feeling of fear, frustration, she did not know what was it.

All she knew was that the feeling makes her uncomfortable, she does not feel like herself. "Ms Song?" Hearing Mr George called out to her, she quickly pushed all the worries behind and pay attention as of right then.

"I will be going back in a few days, continue with the shipping. I will settle the rest with the team when I get back, just..."

"No worries Ms Song, I will smoothly settle the shipping. As for the investors and the military, I trust Ms Song will get it done." Mr George said in a confident and assured tone.

"As for the military, you do not have to worry about that. I will sent some men over to ship the things. Thanks Uncle George~" Song Yu gaze softened as she assured Mr George.

"Don't hold back in front of this old man, I have seen you grown up. I understand you better than anyone, and for that you can trust this old man." Saying that he gently bid Song Yu goodbye before hanging up.

Leaning against the couch in her office, Song Yu ponder deeply. Ever since she was pulled in the underworld and the business world, she had to be very careful as not to let her competitors get to her weakness. She had to be cautious against numerous people, including her family.

Saying the word family, made Song Yu gaze darkened. The word sounded too surreal to her, she never felt love before. Loneliness creeping out on her, she felt sorrow. The feeling of not having anyone that truly and fully understands her, or maybe she did not dare to trust and was afraid of implicating others.

Her life was dangerous, knowing more about her would put those close to her in harm. That was the last thing she wanted it to happen, her family was dangerous. Having been born in a mysterious and powerful family, she had to pay the price for the luxury she had.

But she was thankful there was still some that trusted her and stayed by her side, like Mr George who had seen her grow up. He was like a father figure to her, no matter what he had always stood by her. Qiao Lin, Damon, Yvonne and Zachary was the same. She felt lucky to have them and for that she would not want to risk anything to put them in any harm.

'Thud~Thud~'

The sound of the door knocking brought Song Yu out of her thoughts, "Come in" she leaned against the couch in a tired manner, not bothering about who was going to come in as she knew it was going to be Tang Ai.

Hearing her boss signals her to come in, Tang Ai gently pushed opened the door. Turning towards the couch she saw the tired looking Song Yu, feeling heartache for her. "There's~"

"Ai, not now." Song Yu thought Tang Ai was going to nagged at her again, messaging her temples she took of her specs and placed it beside her before shutting her eyes. "Ai, can you pass me some painkillers"

Gu Chen who was behind Tang Ai taps her shoulder signaling her to leave before walking towards his woman, he had on a concern look. He had wanted to surprised her, but seeing her in a haggard state, he blamed himself for wearing her out. Thinking that it was him that made her tired, blaming himself he walks behind her.

using his fingers he slowly messaged Song Yu's head, hoping to relieve her headache. Staring wide eye at the man behind her, she was stunned beyond words. Feeling the feeling of someone messaging her head, she quickly opened her eyes to be shocked by Gu Chen's presence.

She quickly sat up straight, but before she was able to sit up she was pressed down by Gu Chen on her shoulder. "Be good and stay still" halting for a few seconds, she sighs before leaning back and relaxed in the man's touch.

After about 15 minutes, hearing the sounds of the peaceful breathing of the closed eye Song Yu. Gu Chen lightly walks in front of Song Yu before gently placing the tired woman on the couch, making sure she was in a comfortable position. He took off his coat and placed it gently on top of her, making sure she was fully covered so that she would not catch a cold.

He gently pecks her forehead before heading out of the office.

----------

"Buy some porridge, dumpling and abalone soup over. Text me when you reach" Gu Chen instructed Ye Xun before hanging up the call, he turned towards Tang Ai who was sitting opposite of Song Yu's office.

"She's resting" Gu Chen informed Tang Ai before heading back into the office.

Tang Ai who was left staring at the office, she felt loss of words. THE Gu Chen had just entered her boss office casually and had also acted so gentle and caring towards Song Yu. She felt happy for her boss/friend since she knew how tough has it been for Song Yu.

Thinking that now at least there was a men who is capable loves Song Yu, she felt relieved. Knowing now there was someone who can take care of her, and that she would not be alone anymore.
