Lu Feng woke up and saw Jiang Yang was still sleeping on the couch. Both drank the previous night, so they slept till late. The sunlight had brightened the entire home, and as it was already late in the morning.
Shaking his head to sober up, Lu Feng got up and collected all the beer bottles from the center table to put them into the trash can. Not waking up Jiang Yang, Lu Feng went upstairs to Jiang Yang’s room to freshen up and wore Jiang Yang’s clothes.
Just as he was about to come downstairs, his sight followed Jiang Yuyan’s room. He wanted to go straight downstairs but couldn’t stop himself from going to her room.
Opening the door, he entered the room, and it was the same as how he saw it the last time on Jiang Yuyan’s birthday. The origami crafts made by three brothers together were still hanging in the room as it was. The place still looked lively, as everything in the room marked her presence there.
Reminiscing all those memories, Lu Feng went downstairs just to see Jiang Yang woke up and was sitting on the sofa. He looked at Lu Feng but said nothing. Lu Feng understood Jiang Yang knew he went to his sister’s room, but Jiang Yang didn’t tease him. That meant Jiang Yang was serious, and he didn’t come out of what they had discussed the previous night.
"Go freshen up; I will order something for us to eat. Also, don’t go for work today if it’s not necessary," Lu Feng instructed.
Obeying, Jiang Yang went upstairs, and Lu Feng ordered breakfast. Just then, he got a call from Xiao Min.
"How is Mr. Jiang?" Xiao Min asked.
"He is fine. You can tell your Boss not to worry," Lu Feng replied.
"Hmm!" Xiao Min added. "There is something I want to inform you about."
"Shoot."
"It’s about Ms. Nicky," Xiao Min said.
"What happened?" Lu Feng asked, feeling worried.
"I have mailed you something. Go through it, and you will get the idea. I need to attend a meeting. I will talk to you later."
"Hmm!"
Lu Feng hung up the call and checked his mailbox. There was a mail from Xiao Min with specific attachments, informing about what Xiao Min wished to tell Lu Feng.
Going through it, Lu Feng gave out a deep sigh as he mumbled, "This girl."
He called Nicky, asking her to meet him and she agreed to it.
When Jiang Yang came downstairs, they quietly had breakfast. Once they were done, Lu Feng asked, "Are you going to the hospital?"
"I asked for leave today," Jiang Yang replied.
"Good. I have to go out for some work. You better take care of yourself. I will be back soon."
"I am not a kid that you will come back to look after me. I am fine. You can go back and do your work."
Lu Feng didn’t insist. "As you say."
Lu Feng left, and Jiang Yang decided to spend time in the home. Xiao Min went to his Boss and informed her that Jiang Yang was okay, and she didn’t have to worry about it.

Lu Feng went to Xi residence to meet Nixxxie. She was in her room, and Lu Feng went to see her there.
"What are you up to, Nicky?" Lu Feng asked as he saw Nicky working with a few doc.u.ments.
Nicky looked at him. "Have a seat, brother Feng."
"I am here to know what you are planning these days," Lu Feng said as he sat on the couch.
"So you know it," she concluded.
Lu Feng nodded. "And I am against it. Why do you have to do this?"
"This is the best thing I can do now, and it won’t change it."
"Think about it once again," Lu Feng insisted.
"I have decided already brother Lu Feng and today I will meet him and tell him about everything. I don’t think he will object to my decision.
"Your decision will break him even more as he is already not in a good state of mind," Lu Feng countered.
Feeling puzzled, Nixxxie looked at Lu Feng as she asked worriedly. "What happened to him? Is he alright?"
"He is not because he already got to know the story behind Lu Qiang’s accident."
It shocked Nicky. "Did you tell him?"
"No, but I already told you one day he will get to know it, and you should prepare for it."
"I already have, and that’s why I am doing this. The only difference is, he got to know it even before I could tell him," she said and added giving out a deep sigh, "Anyways, it’s good, so now I just have to inform about my decisions which won’t shock him and he must have already prepared himself for it."
Talking to Lu Feng, she looked like she was not affected at all, and she was perfectly fine.
"When are you meeting him?" Lu Feng asked.
"Today."
"He is home today, so better go there instead of meeting outside,"
"Hmm!"
Lu Feng suggested. He understood he couldn’t meddle between these two, and they had to decide for themselves.
In the evening, Nixxxie went to see Jiang Yang. She had already messaged him that she would be coming to his home. Jiang Yang knew why she would be coming and prepared himself for it.
Finally, it was the moment that the doorbell rang, and Jiang Yang opened the door to see his woman standing in front of him. She looked at him with a slight smile on her lips, but her eyes showed otherwise. The pain she will feel once she enters and leaves this house was evident in her eyes. Both felt like it’s been ages since they didn’t see each other.
Jiang Yang could see through her and felt his chest became heavy with the thought of seeing her hurt. He let her inside the home and closed the door. Both didn’t know how to start talking, but they stepped towards the living room. Nixxxie sat on the sofa, and Jiang Yang sat next to her, leaving space between them.
"How are you?" she asked, trying to avoid turning her face to look at him.
"Fine. Was on leave today," he replied.
"Hmm!"
They talked like they were strangers as both were scared of what would come next when they talk about the actual thing.
