Not A Single Word From This Incident Should Reach Sheng's Ears.

Normally, Jeong Namjoon had a bad habit of not receiving phone calls most of the time. However, at this awkward moment, he would most definitely pick up the call, even if it was from the most unimportant source.

"Hello,"

"Namjoon, the shooting for "Diamond Lovers" has been rescheduled. You can stay in China for two more days, if you wish." It was Jeong Namjoon's Manager, Lee Yoo Min.

"What, now? When have you come to China? What is this sudden top priority, man! Huh...alright, I'm heading back right away then."

Lee Yoo Min slightly knitted his eyebrows, as he didn't know what Jeong Namjoon made out of his words. Was he drunk or what? He tried to correct the latter and said, "No, I said, you don't have to return in two days, as the shooting-"

Nevertheless, Jeong Namjoon cut him off, and replied with a wildly unreasonable hurry.

"Twenty minutes will be too much, manager Lee! Okay-okay don't scold me anymore, I know I shouldn't have escaped from the set yesterday. I will reach the hotel room in an hour."

"Which hotel room are you talking about? Are you drunk? But you sound sober though," Lee Yoo Min asked confusedly, Jeong Namjoon's weird words rendering him almost speechless.

"Yeah-yeah. I'm coming," Saying this, Jeong Namjoon hung up, and looked at everybody with a fake apologetic expression. "My manager just called me back for an important meeting. Gotcha go..."Jeong Namjoon said hurriedly, as he made to leave.

"Namjoon, stay over for lunch…" Chui Kaili called on her grandson's retreating figure. However, Jeong Namjoon already went far away, as if he hadn't heard a word.

Chui Kaili felt bad for her grandson, thus, she narrowed her eyes on her husband. This old fox not only harassed Jeong Namjoon in front of everyone, but also burdened Lu Yunsheng with an unwanted marriage.

Suddenly, Lu Heitin stiffened, and a chill ran down his spine. Subconsciously, he glanced at Chui Kaili and their eyes met.

Lu Heitin coughed lightly and said softly, "Take me to the bed, I want to rest for a while."

Lu Donghai nodded, and supported his father to the bed, before helping him sit on it.

"You don't have to make a mountain out of molehill in every matter. Especially with your grandsons, you seem to be adamant about being after them. If you can't treat them nicely, at least don't bedevil them. Here, drink some water. You coughed the hell out of your chest," Said Chui Kaili turning towards her husband, handing him a cup of water.

Hearing his mother's words, and witnessing his father's earlier smirk, Lu Donghai started growing his own scepticism. Nevertheless, he decided to keep zipped-mouth regarding this matter.

No matter what, his son shouldn't catch a whiff of this incident. What if Jeong Namjoon's claim turned out to be true? It was already a Herculean task to get Lu Yunsheng agree for this marriage, and now they couldn't afford to back off. The Lu family needed an heir, and for that, this marriage was compulsory.

"Mother, that day it was Sheng's fault and today it was Namjoon's. Don't admonish father," A tinge of unhappiness could be heard in Mu Jiaying's voice, and her words were filled with trust and admiration for Lu Heitin..

Chui Kaili shook her head. Naive Mu Jiaying!

Lu Heitin was just a wolf in sheep's clothing.

When she was married to him, she also thought that he was upright and honest, but after sleeping on the same bed with him for years, she realized that this man was full of bad ideas.

"Why have you all assembled here? Seems like the Lu family has been pampering servants recently! Otherwise, where would some trifling servants get the courage to enjoy our family disputes?" Lu Donghai derided, his voice was cold and murderous.

Terror-struck, all the servants started to scatter away hastily.

"Stop!" Lu Donghai sounded extremely stern and he stood in front of the servants, towering over them in a domineering manner.

"Master, we apologize. Please, forgive these lowly ones this time. There will be no next time." One of the servants, who was braver than the rest, apologized first. Following which, the rest started pleading as well.

"There will be no next time, Master."

"Please, don't dismiss us, Master."

"Show some mercy, Master."

"....."

"....."

Mu Jiaying stared at the people before her who were all trembling in fear. After giving it some thought, she decided to not interfere. They actually needed a lesson. After all, it wasn't a good thing for workers to know everything about masters.

"Not a single word from this incident should reach Sheng's ears. Otherwise, you and your next three generations will suffer from the upshot." Lu Donghai declared with a cold voice, skimming his eyes across the gathered servants, before retiring to his room.

As it was Sunday, Tang Xi decided to stay at home and do a thorough clean-up of her apartment. Even a month ago, she didn't have to bother herself with these things, as she was living with her grandfather in the ancient villa.

Tang Xi put her dirty clothes, and some bed sheets into the washing machine, before starting the machine, and spreading new bed covers on the beds. She picked up the broom, swept the floor, then moped it gleaming clean.

After it seemed like two or so hours, Tang Xi was done with all the chores, including her shower, and just then her phone went off. Looking at the caller ID, she swept her finger across the green button, just to be met with a freaked out Song Ah Lam through video call.

"He invited me for a lunch date! Come on, help me choose my OOTD!"

"Lunch date? With whom?" Tang Xi's nonchalant attitude took on a slightly serious one.

"Zi Heng, the heir of the Red Light Club! You know what, he has his full back tattooed with a huge eagle, and also has his tongue pierced! OMG, he is totally my type!" Song Ah Lam replied enthusiastically, while starting her makeup session with a hydrating water essence; just for a little bit extra moisture on her face, and it helped the foundation blend out easier.
