689 Li’s don’t cry
Yushen widened his eyes in shock and asked, "What happened? Why are you crying? Did something happen?"
With her head buried in Yushen's chest, Qiang shook her head. "It's nothing, I was just missing you, mom, dad and everyone."
"But-"
"Take me home Yushen. I wanna see mom." Qiang said in between her sobs.
Pulling away, Yushen wiped her tears away and cupped her cheeks. "Hey, why are you crying? I am here already so you don't have to worry okay? Geez you look super ugly when you cry."
When Qiang didn't stop crying, Yushen frowned deeper. Usually when he called her ugly, Qiang would start throwing tantrums and beat the shit out of him but today it was different. Qiang kept on hugging him and sobbed harder.
Looking at Guang who was staring at Qiang with misty eyes, Yushen pursed his lips. Something seemed off between them but he couldn't really point it out.
Yushen had left home early in the morning to look for them. Things became much more easier when Yinhai managed to track down their exact location.
"Hey Qiang, remember what father taught us when we were small?" Yushen asked.
Qiang slowly nodded her head and said, "Li's don't cry."
Yushen smiled and nodded his head. "Yes, so why are you crying? Remember that you are a Li and we are supposed to make others cry."
Wiping her tears away when Qiang nodded her head, Yushen patted her head and said, "Go and sit in the car. I'll be there in a minute."
After making sure that Qiang boarded the car, Yushen lashed out at Guang. "What did you do? Why is my sister crying?"
When Guang did not say anything, Yushen shouted, "Are you not going to say anything now? Are you going to stay quiet? Tell me what happened."
Both the Li brothers were always extra possessive of their sisters. Seeing Qiang's miserable condition, Yushen's blood boiled.
"You know how lucky you are that brother Zian isn't here? You know what would've happened if he was here right?" Yushen asked.
When Guang still did not say anything, Yushen frowned deeper. "Uncle Songpa is going to kill you if you have really bullied Qiang."
"Take care of her." Guang said before boarding his car and driving away.
Massaging his forehead Yushen sighed. He was already really upset after what happened between him and Jennifer yesterday at the cinema. And now seeing Qiang like that worsened his mood.
After taking a deep breath, Yushen calmed himself down before boarding his car.

Li Corporation.
Glancing at her watch every now and then, Jennifer kept on wondering why he hadn't arrived yet.
Yesterday after Yushen left, Jennifer realised that she had gone overboard and said things that she shouldn't have.
She couldn't stop herself from thinking about him all night. She also felt very guilty for snapping at him for no good reason.
Her guilt surged up when she realised that no one in the office actually knew or talked about what had happened yesterday.
Jennifer wanted to apologise to him for her rude behaviour but it was almost lunch time and Yushen hadn't arrived yet.
Taking out her phone, Jennifer was about to call him but decided not to. What would he tell him? And what if he ignored her call? How was she to face him again if he actually ignored her calls and messages?
Tossing her phone aside, she groaned in frustration. She ruined everything but Jennifer was determined to fix things with Yushen.
…..
Xie corporation.
Yinhai's office.
"Hey, why did you call me over?" Becca asked.
"Ahh thank God you are, I actually need your help over something really very important." Yinhai said before rushing towards Becca.
Becca on the other hand, couldn't take her eyes off him. How could someone be so charming, smart, handsome and sexy at the same time?
Becca had a huge crush on Yinhai since high school but she never had the guts to tell him about it because she wasn't sure whether he felt the same way or not.
When Yinhai requested her to come over to his office saying that he wanted to talk to her about something important, Becca was delighted. Though she didn't know what he wanted to talk to her about, Becca still couldn't help but feel giddy.
"Help? What kind of help?" Becca asked.
"I cannot take Qiangs help because she is my sister and you know Huiling is busy with her new job and the guys are not good at these things. And you are the only girl from our group who isn't doing anything so I thought maybe you could help me." Without waiting for her reply, Yinhai added, "You remember Jasmine right?"
"The over smart and arrogant one from our high school?" Becca asked.
Yinhai nodded his head and said, "Yes, Jasmine. I met her a couple of days ago at the mall and then we exchanged numbers. After talking for a couple of days, we decided to go on a date so I need your help to choose a gift for her."
Becca pursed her lips and clutched her hand into a fist. " So you called me over for that and nothing else?"
"What else? I don't understand." Yinhai asked.
Grabbing her bag, Becca got up and started walking towards the door.
"Hey Bec wait." Yinhai shouted before rushing towards her.
"Listen to me Yinhai, I am not doing anything at the moment doesn't mean that I have time for this shit. Don't call me over to help you with shitty and irrelevant things like this. And FYI, I already got a job in the finance department in Yang corporation so I am no more free for your shit." Becca snapped.
Stopping mid way, she turned around and added, "And if you really want to gift that horny woman something, how about a sex you? That would be the perfect gift for her."
Without waiting for his reply, Becca dashed out of the office.
