Was it stolen? An illusion? Lili didn't know what to say or how to feel. She was utterly speechless as she looked around in search of her car.
Maybe she had packed it at another spot. Maybe. Because she didn't hope her day would get any worse than it already was!
"What's taking you long?"
She suddenly heard someone ask as she turned only to see SiChen leaning against her car while waving at her.
Lili gasped. was it a sigh of relief? Maybe she felt it was because she too was uncertain of why she had made it.
She stood there looking at SiChen who had that hypocritical smile on her face. It was now another fact that pissed her off!
"Why are you standing there and Just looking, come over here!" He snapped.
Just like an obedient fool, she had no choice but to approach him. She took a quick glimpse at the car he was leaning on just to confirm.
It was hers!
"Why....are you here?" She asked. It was the best form of conversation-starting she could think of at the moment.
"Why am I here?" He repeated "Oh.
Maybe because it's my company" He smirked.
"....." Lili was lost for words.
"I can see you went to the cemetery and took your punishment. I'm partly here to commend you on your obedience. keep it up and you might get a bonus"
"...." Lili had nothing to say!
"So... how's your dream job going? Are you loving it?" He asked.
Looking at his smirk, Lili couldn't help but get annoyed. But she had to cover up a smile of hers.
"It's Okey...I'm getting used to it" She said.
"That's good..." He nodded with that smile on.
Chen wasn't the Time who seemed as though he smiled. One was safe for Say that he never does!
But when he did, like he did not, It was also safe to note that a smile from him was insincere and surprisingly cold!
It was capable of Making one feel guilty and uncomfortable!
But Lili seemed firm in her smile at the moment.
"You must be heading home, right?" He asked.
Lili simply nodded.
"Well good then, take me along," He said as he opened the door to the backseat and made his way in.
Lili stood out, watching him confused. She wondered if she was heading home?!
When no one was coming into the car, Chen looked out the window. "Hey what's taking you so long? Get in and drive me home!"
Lili said nothing but to get into the driver's seat.
"I heard from my little blabby driver that my funeral is tomorrow... Which was strange because I'm still alive. Well, I guess I'll have to head home and ask questions" He said leaning back against the seat with his eyes closed.
Lili didn't bother saying anything. She simply started the engine and made her way into the busy road, heading home.

Minutes of driving brought The car packed before the Luxurious Li mansion.
Chen was the first to get out of the car as he stretched himself out. After that, he took his time to look around the place.
"I guess it's been long since I've been here," He said.
Then Lili walked out of the car as she locked it up.
"Let's go" SiChen plainly said as he made his way in.
Lili watched him enter for a while, she couldn't help but wonder what he was up to now! But anyway, she guessed she'd have to flow along with the rhythm.
Without further thinking, she made her way into the building behind Chen.
****
The doorbell went at the Li Mansion's door. and then another ring came between intervals.
"I'm coming!"
Mrs. Li made her way down the stairs when she saw that no one was free to answer the door. "I wonder who's making such a fuss at the door. Could it be Xiaomi?" She wondered heading to open the door.
As she arrived at the door, she casually pulled it open after unlocking it without even thinking twice.

The exams were coming, which was a better roan for YiMing to study hard.
As always, she Burnt the night candle, Studying through the subjects she wasn't attached with.
She sat before her study table, with the book on her table and her lamp light on. She flipped through the pages of the textbook, studying.
It was said that it was dangerous having your phone beside you as you studied, And YiMing guessed she would fall prey anyways!
Her phone beside her Kept beeping and beeping endlessly with massages dashing in. It wasn't only distracting her this time, but also tempting her to halt their studies and take a break on her phone.
Although it was only reasonable to turn off her phone, she didn't anyways.
When she finally gave in, she took her phone and logged into the school forum where the hot discussion was being held.
As she expected, the hot discussion of what had happened to LingLong at school was still trending!
She ignored this and scrolled through further discussion and then came into another interesting discussion.
Looking closely, YiMing could read out the heading which read.
- Su LingLong Birthday is coming up soon and at the same time her father's 15th death anniversary -
" A birthday and a death anniversary at the same time?" YiMing repeated the rather fascinating read-up.
