Revenge Sevenfold

Hui Yin nodded. She actually hadn\'t eaten anything yet, but what if Lu Shen joined her during breakfast? She\'d only lose her appetite.

"You should eat more," he said critically. "You\'re already so thin."

"That\'s none of your business."

Hui Yin sat on the bed and looked at him, silently signalling that he should leave her alone.

Lu Shen ignored her signal.

"You should go downstairs later. There\'s a garden just east of the tennis court."

Hui Yin stared at him.

"There\'s a puppy," he added.

Hui Yin remained unmoved.

Lu Shen frowned, irritated. Was she going to remain in her room for the rest of the day? When she was in Tianshang Renjian, this girl seemed to happily enjoy touring around like an excited bunny. Or was it because of that male singer that she was so enthusiastic?

His mood plunged to the bottom of the ocean.

"Go down for lunch later," he snapped, slamming the door on his way out.

Hui Yin rolled her eyes. That tyrant was worse than a woman on her menopausal.

She stretched her legs and stood up, walking towards the balcony. The breeze lifted some strands of her hair, and Hui Yin lightly twirled them around with her hand. She gazed at the view below, quickly spotting the tennis court that Lu Shen told her about.

Hui Yin squinted her eyes. On the green expanse, she saw a white and tiny fluff ball hopping about like a bouncing rubber ball. It seemed to be chasing something.

Was that a...Samoyed puppy?

...

"What do you mean? Brother Shen took the day off?"

Nian Zhen stared at Assistant Yang in deep shock.

She came to visit Lu Shen in his office, but she didn\'t expect him to be absent. Ever since he started his own company, Nian Zhen couldn\'t recall a time that he took a day off.

Did he get sick?

"Why?" she demanded.

She was worried that he might have worked himself too hard and had fallen ill. Should she contact Auntie Lu and ask her? But thinking about it, Lu Shen would probably not even tell his parents about it.

He was always alone and took care of himself, forming a thick barrier that separated him from the people around him.

Assistant Yang was intimidated by Nian Zhen\'s aggressiveness. How should he know why the boss took a day off? The Great Dragon King had simply told him the day before to manage the things at the company and to not call him unless it was important.

He even particularly stressed out that by \'important\', he meant either the company was going to become bankrupt, there was a sudden apocalypse, or anyone he knew was in a critical condition and was holding on to the last breath of life.

Unless it was any of the three, Assistant Yang was not to disturb him.

"Miss Nian, the boss did not tell me. Maybe you should come back on another day. I\'m sure the boss would meet you then and answer any questions that you might have."

Nian Zhen was not satisfied by Assistant Yang\'s tactical evasion. Was Lu Shen really sick then? Maybe he didn\'t want anyone to know and was quietly recuperating in his villa. He was the type to endure alone and Nian Zhen was concerned that his sickness might only get worse.

Should she go there?
