Just as she was about to leave, Lu Jinhai spoke, "Stay in the home where Lu Lijun is staying. Better to stay at home than in a hotel."

Jiang Yuyan wanted to say she will stay in the hotel but Lu Jinhai talked to Xiao Dong even before she could say a word, "Xiao Dong, inform Martha and Jerome to make arrangements for Yuyan."

"Yes, Mr. Chairman."

Lu Jinhai looked at her, "It's a huge house where our entire family can stay. You will be more comfortable there."

Jiang Yuyan could only agree to it and left.

By night, Jiang Yuyan left for England. She reached there early in the morning and went to their family home. Martha and Jerome were present there to welcome her. It was the first time they got the chance to see Jiang Yuyan in person and they were happy.

"Welcome, Young Mistress," both greeted her.

"Boss, she is Martha and that is Jerome," Xiao Min informed.

"I know,'' was what she said and heard Martha," Young Mistress, I have prepared the room for you." Martha guided her way towards the guest room. While walking, Jiang Yuyan passed across the staircase.

Martha noticed it and informed, "Fourth Young Master and His Friend stays on the floor up. If you would like, there are more rooms upstairs, I can…."

"No. I am fine downstairs," Jiang Yuyan interrupted her and followed behind.

Jerome carried their bags and guided Xiao Min's way towards another guest room.

Getting ready, both came out of the room where they heard Martha talking to Jerome, "Where is the fourth young master. He is not home again. How much will he work? I see him getting weaker every day."

"I will call his office," Jerome assured and noticed Jiang Yuyan and Xiao Min.

Jiang Yuyan realized that these two were not aware of Lu Lijun's situation and that he had surgery.

They both greeted her. "Breakfast is ready, Young Mistress," Martha said.

"I have to go out for work, don't have time for breakfast," Jiang Yuyan said and turned to Xiao Min, "Do you want to."

"I am fine boss," he said and then was ready to leave with his boss. Lu Lijun was in the hospital and there was no way she could even think about eating.

They went straight to the hospital where Xiao Min took her to the room Lu Lijun was admitted in. When they reached the VIP ward, they came across Noah who could not believe his eyes that President Lu was there.

He immediately bowed to her and greeted them, "Good Morning President Lu."

Even before he could ask why they were there, Jiang Yuyan spoke, "How is he?"

Noah understood why she was there and he cursed himself for not realizing it sooner. Lu Lijun was in the hospital and how come she won't be there. It should not be anything surprising to him.

"He is fine now but still sleeping," Noah informed.

Jiang Yuyan nodded and walked towards the door that Xiao Min opened for her. Lu Lijun was lying on the bed in a patient's uniform. She walked closer to the bed and observed him. Now she realized he looked even weaker than how he looked on the screen during the meeting. In just four months he turned like this.

"I wished to talk to his doctor," Jiang Yuyan said.

Noah and Xiao Min went outside while Jiang Yuyan stayed with Lu Lijun for a while when she was called to meet the doctor.

She wished to know in detail what exactly happened to him though she had overheard it already from Xiao Min.

Jiang Yuyan sat in front of the doctor who explained her situation.

"He must have been ignoring his food and overworked himself. All the stress and not eating properly caused his stomach to turn into a bad situation that damaged the inner lining. For now, it's not that serious and with small surgery, it's treated. I believe he won't ignore his health again. He needs to eat proper food and rest."

Jiang Yuyan talked for a while with the doctor and returned to Lu Lijun's room. When she entered the room, Lu Lijun was already awake and the nurse was checking the IV attached to his hands.

Seeing her there surprised him and didn't know how to react. He had so many things in mind but not even one of them was clear to him. He didn't know what to talk or what to ask.

Once the nurse finished her work, she said, "Mr. Lu, you are not allowed to eat anything for now. But after twenty-four hours, you can have liquid."

Lu Lijun only nodded and the nurse left. Jiang Yuyan approached him and he tried to get up. She hurried to him, "don't move."

He lay back in the bed and wanted to ask why she was in England but he chose to keep silent. There was a sudden silence that surrounded the room that Jiang Yuyan broke, "Father is busy so he asked me to come here for the project work," she explained though it was not the complete truth. She was here to see him as she was worried.

"Hmm," he responded.

"You should rest. I'll be here. If you need anything, let me know."

He again nodded and closed his eyes. He was overwhelmed with so many emotions after seeing her in front of him that in his weak condition he had no energy left to cope with them. He chose to not say a word or show anything on his face.

Jiang Yuyan sat on the couch and looked at him silently. She continued her work from there keeping watch on him and saw the doctors and the nurses visiting him in between and then they talked to her about him as she was his family.

Though she was by his side, there was no conversation between them other than exchanging gazes whenever he was awake.
