Chapter 519 - Blue Rose and Music
A silvery tinkling of a lullaby was softly playing from the window of the master's bedroom.
The entrance to the balcony was opened, allowing the icy morning breeze to come through.
Lu Yin Ze stood on the balcony.
In his hand was a musical lamp box that had the same design he had gifted to Xiong Zhi before. While deep in thoughts, he heard a knock on the door.
The butler's voice sounded.
"Young Master, your breakfast is ready."
Lu Yin Ze stirred, walked back into the room, and changed to a thicker fur robe to protect himself from the cold. If the servants and his grandfather saw that he was not taking care of his health, they would start worrying again.
Opening the door, he saw his butler standing a few steps away.
He asked about his grandfather.
"Master Lu is preparing to come down."
Lu Yin Ze was the first to arrive at the dining table. He did not start and waited for his grandfather.
A little later, the old man came from the nearby hall, where the private elevator for the elder was located.
Lu Yin Ze stood up, pulled the head chair out for Old Lu, and assisted the elder to sit down.
"Grandfather, good morning. How is your sleep?"
Old Lu smiled gently, seeing his beloved grandson.
"As usual. My back is hurting all night."
Lu Yin Ze looked at his grandfather with a soft smile, but his eyes contained worry. He patted his back trying to massage it.
If it was three years ago, Old Lu would never dare to complain to his grandson about little things like this. He feared that the other would overly worry. But now, Lu Yin Ze started to learn to care for others in a calmer and more stable manner, especially to him.
Which grandparent did not want to be spoiled by their grandson?
Old Lu wanted to be spoiled by the beautiful and filial Lu Yin Ze first thing in the morning. It always lifted up his spirit.
"Grandpa, you should stop dropping by the headquarters. This season is cold. Stay in the mansion for a while, it is warmer here. If grandpa wants, I can accompany you to Yunnan. You can enjoy a warmer weather and amazing scenery there."
"Hmph, you will just leave me there after a couple of days. I want to be at the place where my grandson is."
Lu Yin Ze's heart squeezed, but he was also filled with warmth. He could not stay with his grandfather for a long vacation because he had many things he needed to personally do.
Aside from handling the Lu Empire, he was still in the midst of investigating the list.
Lu Yin Ze held his grandfather's hand.
"I can at least accompany you for three days. Don't worry grandpa, this grandson will finish the company matters soon and accompany you whenever you go as long as you want."
This might be empty words, Old Lu knew that, but he was still touched inside his heart. His complaining face finally broke into a smile again.
"Alright. I don't want to trouble my dear grandson. Let's start eating."
The two ate in peace.
It was only after the two had finished their breakfast that Old Lu spoke again.
"By the way, Little Yin, accompany me to the Tang Mansion before you go to the office."
Lu Yin Ze: "???"
Tang Mansion?
He suddenly remembered the last talk with Mistress Tang.
Mistress Tang had promised that the Tang family would support him. If the time came and he had to really engage with an inheritance battle with his brother, the Tang family would stand by his side. His grandfather must have wanted to nail the deal with the Tangs.
"I understand."
The two went out of the mansion and entered the car to visit the Tang mansion.
While in the car, Lu Yin Ze finally asked what was bugging him since the mention of the Tang family.
"Grandpa, what did you and Mistress Tang talked about that day?"
*That day, his grandfather let him tour the two Tang young ladies in the Lu's garden. He knew that the two old people discussed heavy matters, and was probably related to his father.
That time, Mistress Tang had mentioned that his father came back from the North. What information did Mistress Tang give to his grandfather?
Lu Yin Ze remembered what Guan Guan Gao Huan said two days ago.
Lu Jin and Ming Zhi Yin went back to the country one after another. He spoke as if the two had just recently came back to the country.
But Lu Jin went to the Tang's banquet six months ago and Mistress Tang had already told them that the man was in the country as well. Were those people already in the country since that time up until now? Or they travelled twice?
Lu Yin Zhe did not know which one was more troubling.
For them to stay this long in the country while hiding the fact, knowing their insidious personalities, it most likely meant that there was already a big scheme playing out.
For them to travel in and out of the country, it most likely meant that they were preparing for something big as well, just that the latter was definitely linked internationally.
Old Lu was silent for a moment then sighed.
He patted Lu Yin Ze's hand.
"Little Yin, there's no need for you to worry. When the time comes, I will tell you. For now, let grandfather keep some secrets from you, alright?"
Lu Yin Ze stared at Old Lu.
What was the matter that must be kept from him?
It bothered him, but since his grandfather had already spoken, Lu Yin Ze had no choice but to comply.
"I understand."
The car quietly travelled to the Tang mansion.
****
Tang Yin was hit by an inspiration to create a beautiful piece of music in the indoor patio of the zen garden.
However, she suddenly felt that it was still somewhat lacking. She scratched her head again then crumpled the paper.
Agh!
"Yin'er! Master Lu and your prince is coming!"
Tang Xinyang's voice travelled from the door to the patio. She was running towards Tang Yin with a grin.
Tang Yin's frustrated eyes was suddenly replaced by excitement.
"Linfeng?"
She did not hear 'Master Lu' but only the 'Prince' word.
