Jiang Cheng reluctantly explain every details about the transaction to his client's assistant. Well, this transaction is important and is need to be done soon like what his client demand the time he recieved his message.
The lady seems to be trusted so he relaxed himself a little bit and end the discussion with less effort. They bid a good bye to each other before they both part ways.
----
Jiang Cheng decided to head back to the hq only to be welcome by his now dressed up daughter. He was about to ask her but she beat him to that. She already had an answer even before the question."We still have time to meet them" she uttered and drag Jiang Cheng back to the car. Knowing that Jiang Cheng couldn't win over her, he just drive the car heading to the LPC.
On their way to the LPC, A-xiang made fun Jiang Cheng of being so weak when it comes to her in which Jiang Cheng just respond a weak smile.
After reaching to their destination, Jiang Cheng prepared himself to face the consequences he might face in meeting his brother again after 10 years of not showing up. After 10 years of hiding from everyone. After leaving without goodbye.
It would be a lie if he said he's not nervous right now.
They entered the building, trying not to get any attention but everyone could tell this man beside the young lady is someone that their president has been waiting for.
Jiang Cheng is no different from his father when it comes to their faces. He looks exactly like the young Fengmian who had built this building.
"Dad, they are looking at us" A-xiang whispered with an awkward expression as she lean closer beside Jiang Cheng and cling into his arm. Jiang Cheng shooked his and just let her daughter be like this.
They head to the top floor where his father's office is as he remembers it. Upon getting there, they heard Wei Wuxian's voice near the corridor.
"Jiang Cheng" The only words came out from his mouth as he was stunned in surprise. It's as if he couldn't believe what he is seeing. And then his gaze advert into A-xiang who hides behind Jiang Cheng.
"What are you doing silly girl? Didn't you want to meet him? Why don't you go and greet him?"
With that, Gu Xiang went over to Wei Wuxian and hug him fondly. "I finally meet you, though you're not as tall as my uncle describe you but I'm still glad" Gu Xiang was always been so careless when spitting facts that's why Jiang Cheng doesn't let her go when he's meeting a clients. He might just end up insulting them to the point they would lose their temper.
Wei Wuxian awkwardly smile at the young lady and invited them inside his office (not literally his). Jiang Cheng and Gu Xiang followed and sat down at the couch.
Nothing change, it's still the room that Jiang Cheng remembered from before. The only change is the smell of the incense which was once the smell of a fresh lotus flower.
"Where have you been this past 10 years?" Wei Wuxian asked, his voice seems to change a little bit. It becomes more mature than before yet it still gives the same vibes.
"Living my life without my annoying brother" Jiang Cheng answered, a bit real yet much more tease. "I'm serious Jiang Cheng! Uncle died and asked to find you so that you could continue this business" Wei Wuxian said, raising his voice a bit out of feeling beaming inside him right now.
"Is hurting me not enough? Wei Wuxian I'm not here to talk about this, I'm here because Gu Xiang wants to. I'm not ready yet, can't you at least tell that by reading my expression and action? Aren't you good at that?"
They turn silent for a moment, trying to find a perfect time to talk but they were surprised when A-xiang stood up.
"You better be in good terms since I'm planning to take you two back to Lotus Pier because Aunt Yanli requested me to do so"
Not minding their reaction, A-xiang left the room and went back to the parking lot. She waited for them to come down and it literally took almost half an hour before they finally decided to follow her.
They drove to Lotus Pier like what A-xiang said. Jiang Cheng couldn't say no when A-xiang made up her mind and her face turn incredibly serious. Even Wei Wuxian felt like he was enchanted by her. Can't bring himself to decline an offer which wasn't even one.

I literally messed up guys, I don't know if I could still continue this story. I kinda felt like I'm in complete trouble. I couldn't make up my mind and it just doesn't give me much idea on how am I supposed to continue or even end this.
Though I'm thankful that some of you read this. This feels really lame, I don't know if I am good enough or ready to be taking this writing skill as my talent or dropping it.
