Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Shangguan Ning stared at Lu in surprise. She hadn’t expected that Lu possessed such strong power. She was also very fast and must have been received extensive trained for it. Shangguan Ning started to admire this little girl.

She said smilingly, “Okay, okay, I believe you. Lu is excellent and I apologize for my mistake. I will have to trouble you in the future.”

Lu could handle Jing Yiran anyway without any problem. She was finally able to get rid of the maniac.

Hearing what Shangguan Ning said, Lu got very happy. She clapped her hands as a child. “Sister Shangguan, please don’t worry. I won’t allow any bad man to bully you.” She talked as if Jing Yiran was that bad man.

She was just about to leave when her ankle was gripped by someone.

Lu looked down and her large eyes twinkled with confusion. “You need anything, Brother Jing?”

She didn’t think that she had made a mistake by smashing him down to the ground.

Jing Yiran lay on the floor as if his bones had been completely broken. Ignoring the pain, he surveyed Lu up and down. “Lu, you look very familiar to me!”

“Brother Jing, have you lost your memory because of my hit? We have known each other for so many years, of course I look familiar to you.” Lu rolled her eyes and chuckled.

“No, I think you look like someone. But I can’t remember who it is. Do you have any... siblings?”

Lu shook her head vividly. “No, Brother Jing. You must have really got affected because of my hitting you. Go and get yourself checked up at the hospital. I am parentless, and you know that. How can I have any siblings?”

Jing Yiran of course knew that Lu had no family. But when he caught sight of the side look of Lu, there came an indescribable feeling of familiarity inside his heart.

Was it because he hadn’t seen Lu for half a year and had become distant from her, she looked strangely familiar when they met again?

Lu glared at him and pulled her ankle out of Jing Yiran’s grip. She took hold of Shangguan Ning’s arms and said sweetly, “Sister Shangguan, you are so pretty! No wonder both Brothers of Family Jing like you. I like you too!”

Luckily, it was the floor for the President’s office where the ordinary staff had no access. Otherwise there would be a huge explosion in the entire enterprise after someone heard what Lu said.

It was too weird for both the Masters of Family Jing to fall in love with a minor assistant.

Shangguan Ning didn’t know Lu’s origins and the reason for her addressing the two masters of Family Jing as brothers. But what she could feel was that the crystal eyes of Lu didn’t reflect any viciousness. Instead, she was like a little girl who knew nothing about the world.

She was startled for a moment and then patted Lu’s hands as she corrected her. “Brother Jing likes me, but the second Brother Jing is just asking for trouble. You will know when you grow up. I also like you, Lu, you are just lovely!”

Lu Qing coughed behind her and said in a low voice, “Deputy President Shangguan, Lu is 26 years old . She is an adult! It is just... that she doesn’t look her age.”

Shangguan Ning was again shocked. She surveyed the girl in front of her carefully.

She had a pretty face and her large, dark eyes were pure and flawless. She was skinny and short, her skin was tender. She even talked like a child. The pink Adidas sportswear as well as the white pair of sneakers and the pigtail made her look as if she were only 18 years old.

She didn’t look like 26 years old. Not only in appearance, but also in mind!

“Ha, you noticed that too? Lu is a bit mindless. In that way, she resembles you. She is 26 years old and still dresses like an underage woman. She has been with our family for 8 years and still hasn’t grown up. So strong and fierce, I don’t think you can find any husband in the future!”

Jing Yiran had just got up from the ground. He massaged his wounded arm and spoke without any politeness.

Shangguan Ning’s heart skipped a beat. She glared at Jing Yiran furiously.

She had noticed that Lu was not normal. But how could anyone just talk about her being mindless right in front of her. This man had such a vicious heart.

Fearing that Lu would get upset, she took hold of the tiny, slightly rough hand and consoled her, “Lu, don’t bother with what that man says. You are the smartest girl and you are very pretty. You can even perform martial arts well. You are definitely going to find a great husband.”

Lu blinked and said confusedly, “Sister Shangguan, why must I marry someone? I am so happy being like this. I think Brother Jing is right. I have grown much in strength. Do you think that I could become an undefeatable, powerful woman in the world?”

Shangguan Ning was stuck by her words. So Lu had not thought that Jing Yiran was laughing at her. Instead, she felt that she had been praised.

Who had made her think so?

She took up Lu’s hands and walked into her office together. She locked Jing Yiran out and spoke in a soft tone, “Lu, you are a very nice girl. What is the point of being the strongest woman? You are a grown-up and should marry someone. You will have a husband and babies too. Understand? So, you should think about something other than growing in strength...”

Lu observed the surroundings of the office as she said cheerfully, “Sister Shangguan, can I also call myself Shangguan? Your surname sounds so nice, I want to be called Shangguan too!”

Shangguan Ning was dumbstruck.

She felt that she and Lu were not in the same room. Lu didn’t take in anything she had just said.

Could she just decide whatever she wanted to be called?

Shangguan Ning was about to explain to Lu that surnames shouldn’t be changed at will and that she should be named after her father when she suddenly realized that Lu was an orphan.

So she could call herself with whatever surname that she wanted. Children deserted by parents deserved care and pity. They didn’t need to follow their father’s last name.

She brought out a box of chocolate from the drawer and gave it to Lu and said, “Okay, if you think it sounds nice. Then change your surname to Shangguan!” Lu might have felt that Shangguan was a rare family name and catchy.

At the sight of the chocolate box, Lu widened her eyes. Her large eyes lit up upon hearing that Shangguan was willing to share her surname. She said happily, “Great! Sister Shangguan, now I have a family name too. I will be called Shangguan Lu, right?”
