Going Places

In the end they didn't jive into what happened earlier that night.

The next day, Yue woke up without Yyan in sight.

It was not the first time this has happened so Yue didn't fuss about, until Monday came and it was Assistant Yi who fetch her.

"Good morning Miss Crest, let me bring you to work for this day" Assistant Yi politely greeted.

"Where's my brother?" Yue is getting a bad feeling about it.

"Young Master had a sudden emergency and left this Assistant to care for Miss for the time being. Young master is sorry to leave miss without saying goodbye but he should be back by tomorrow. He told me to tell miss not to worry and not to forget your meals and to always take care"

Yue was observing Assistant Yi as he smoothly recited his spiel.

Although it didn't look like there's something wrong but Yue took note of several things.

If the situation Yyan was facing was not that serious then there's no need for Assistant Yi to deliver his message for him.

Assistant Yi also mentioned that Yyan should be back by tomorrow, but that 'should be' would be, if nothing extra troublesome happen.

Yue knew her brother had some underground dealings and she cannot just interfere blindly. All she can do now is pray for his safety and trust that he'll be back soon.

"Alright, let's go. There's no need to fetch me later, I'm sure my brother needs Assistant Yi more than I"

Yue relieved Assistant Yi from her side.

"But Miss-" Assistant Yi tried to protest.

"I would be more at ease if Assistant Yi is there to support and protect my brother" this is the only thing Yue can do for now. The more capable people her brother has by his side, the more he could eliminate the danger that may come his way.

"Then Miss have my gratitude" Assistant Yi was truly grateful to his Miss. Although he made it sound simple, but the emergency they had right now is actually a matter of life and death. Young master needed every single person he could mobilize.

Assistant Yi grew up besides his young master. Truthfully, he doesn't look at Miss Crest with positive light at first. Although he knew that it was not her fault for breaking down, but he thought that if she could just be a little stronger then she could share the huge burden that his young master shoulders.

Thankfully, she managed to pick up herself and at least not add to his young master's burden. And today, she even managed to analyze the truth with very little information and make a good decision.

Assistant Yi finally recognize Miss Crest and was looking forward to her growth.

They finally reached Alcane, setting aside her worries, Yue excitedly walked towards their studio.

Yue wanted to discuss with Ker her ideas for the upcoming fashion festival. She got the inspiration from the floating lights that she saw at the party.

Ker was not hard to work with, he's not as eccentric as other people made it out to be. In fact, he is like a teacher that patiently guides her.

The only problem that he has is that he easily falls asleep, and once he woke up he would be really grouchy.

She had a first hand experience of being shouted at one time when she accidentally woke him up.

Good thing she was used to such a scene during her amateur days as a model, so she can be nonchalant about it.

"No! I want to go with you. I want to be with big sister!!"

Even from afar, Yue can already hear the loud crying of Kil.

"Troublesome" Ker was irritated. He didn't know where the little guy gets the energy to cry for a long time.

"Can Kil give big sister a hug?" Yue entered and called for the little guy.

When Kil heard his beloved big sister's voice, his tears magically disappeared and he also magically disappeared only to be seen all over Yue.

Ker can only twitch at the scene. Even after seeing it for days, he was still amazed at how fast his baby brother changes face.

"Why are you crying earlier?"

"I didn't want him to go with us" before Kil could start, Ker already answered her question to avoid the dramatics. The little guy can only pout.

"Are we going somewhere?" Yue got hyped up when she heard they were going out.

"Uhn, when I heard about your idea, I decided to set our theme based on the country's unique phenomena. To get an accurate feel for the designs, I thought it would be good to visit places" It was only when it comes to design that Ker would spout lots of words.

"And Kil would be a hindrance" Ker added.

"No I won't, I'll behave. Big sister, Kil would be good" Kil looked at Yue teary eyed. The little guy was really irresistible.

"Then, is there someone who would babysit Kil if we leave him?" Yue tried to be realistic. She wanted to bring Kil over but it would be bad if they cannot pay much attention to him since they're going for work.
