Uncle Luo glare at Ting, but calmed himself. "She is someone you should never offend. No one in imperial can afford to offend her." He said his piece and walks out the double glass doors.

Ting was rendered speechless but also curious. The beautiful lady was not only beautiful, she even own one of the keys to Jade Condo's most expensive penthouses.

Each floor of Jade Condo consist of 10 condos, but it was only the 52nd floor that only has 4 penthouses and they were the best of the best in all of Imperial.

Only billionaires can accommodate those 4 penthouses.

Reaching the 52nd floor, the elevator ding in arrival with the doors open.

Yue Ling leisurely stepped out.

She scan the floor and realize the long and wide hallway with white walls. What was more eye catching was that there were only 4 doors.

The white walls brought natural lighting into the hallway, as the doors to each housing were dark gray with the same color border around. Both sides of the doors had tall windows.

Each housing number was carved in gold onto the door, on top the peep hole.

On the one side was two doors almost side by side, whereas across was the same. At the end of the hallway was two double glass door with the sign 'pool and roof access' on the side.

Yue Ling walked to her door, which was the second door to the left. She wondered if the other floors were as elegant as this floor.

Inserting one of the black house keys into the key hole, it clicked and the door unlocked.

Entering her new temporary home, she was dumbfounded by its view.

The flooring to her Residence was glossy white, with white walls.

The living room had floor to ceiling windows all around. The view of Imperial could be seen from any part of the living room windows. Two white mid-century couches were set in an almost L-shape, a white tub chair in one part, with a rectangular marble coffee table. Under was a large white fur carpet. A 50" smart tv was placed on a long white tv stand.

The kitchen was separated from the living room by a white marble wall island, 4 white stools sat on the outside. The cabinets were also white with silver pulls. The only color beside white in her kitchen were the silver fridge, silver oven, silver microwave, and the silver air vent on top of the black top stove.

Across the kitchen was a dining room with a black dining table and four white parsons chairs.

She sighed at how white her housing was.

But she also liked it because the natural lighting contrasted with the white made the place look more brighter and not gloomy.

Satisfy with the living room, kitchen and dining room, she walks to the hallway to check on the rooms.

To an even more surprise, she realize that her place has 3 bedrooms!

Like the walls, the rooms were white. The first room was on the left connecting to the kitchen wall. It was bigger, assigned as a guest room, which she will make since there was already a queen bed inside. All she has to do is buy new pillows and sheets to add some color to the room.

Surprisingly, one whole wall of the guest room was floor to ceiling windows.

Seeing this, Yue Ling couldn't help but frown as it's view was none other than her neighbor's. The only good thing was there's an automatic curtain setting for privacy.

Across from that room on the right, was the guest bathroom. It's wall connecting with the dining room. The bathroom had a shower, toilet and sink. Yet it was bigger than normal bathrooms.

Walking forward, next to the guest bathroom was another bedroom, just that, this bedroom was slightly smaller than the guest room and like the guest room, one whole wall was floor to ceiling windows.

Yue Ling could guess this room must be the smallest despite its irregular size.

She decided she'll turn this room into her walk in closet and office, since her career requires her to always deal with fashion.

Passing the room, she finally reached the master bedroom.

Her new bedroom.

Opening the door and walking in, her eyes were on the verge of popping out. The room was the size of her guest room and walk in closet put together!

First door on the left upon entering the room was the master bathroom, it had a shower and a huge bathtub. There was an adjoining door for the toilet. The only thing bugging Yue Ling was the huge window which she was sure would allow her neighbor to see her when she bathes.

She'll definitely buy curtains! Who knows what kind of people her neighbor is!

Across from the bathroom was the closet, which happened to bigger than she expected, but she guess she'll use it as extra storage for now.

The rest of the room was all floor to ceiling windows, the only walls in the room were the wall next to the closet and another small wall on the left where her king size bed covered in all white was.

There was also a double glass door near the bathroom door leading to an outside balcony. The only downfall for her was that the patio connected with her neighbor's. Only a glass wall separated the two balconies.

If one wanted to go over, they'd have no problem at all..

After a few rounds of touring her new place, Yue Ling decided to sleep since she was waiting for Liu Shan to bring her things.

In another part of Imperial, a tall black building stood its ground.

At this moment inside the meeting room, every worker was sweating beads. The temperature was negative degrees but they were still sweating.

In the center seat was a handsome man, if looks could kill then this man's looks would definitely have committed countless crimes.

His cold eyes scanned every person sitting at the meeting table.

Not one person looked up to meet the man's eyes.

If Yue Ling was here, she would definitely remember him as the 'rude man'.

After coming back to Imperial from his meeting in Korea, he had learned that the contract between Lu Corps and TB Corps had not been terminated.

"Before I left, I specifically gave order to terminate the contract with TB Corps. Why am I still meeting their Chairman at 3pm?" His deep and cold voice was low but it was loud enough to penetrate each person's soul with fear.

No one wanted to answer due to fear of their boss.

Seeing that no one wanted to speak, Lu Tian gestured his assistant.

Knowing what to do, Xu Long clear his throat and spoke, "If no one wants to answer, then please have all your resignation letters turned in by the end of the day."

Xu Long glance at the people and felt pity for them. But who could they blame but themselves.

The boss gave them one job, and yet this one job they couldn't even do.

"Boss, we tried to terminate the contract with TB Corps, but Chairman Ning was persistence in keeping the contract. He said he'll meet you at tonight's social gathering and speak with you for reason." A male worker spoke with fear.

Lu Tian glance at the man without saying a word.

The man gulped in fear. His boss is known as the scariest man in the business world. Just one look from him could kill a soul!

"Mm." was all Lu Tian said, then he stood from his seat and walked out of the meeting room.

Everyone was confused and scared. Were they losing their jobs? What did the boss mean with 'mm'? All eyes darted to Xu Long with questioning eyes.

Letting out a deep and long sigh, Xu Long pinch the space between his brow.

"You all should be thankful that one of you spoke. If none of you did, you all would of been jobless."

He cleared his throat and continue, "Everyone back to their work places. Boss will handle the matters involving TB Corps."

Lu Tian entered his office and sat in his chair as he read some business documents.

A knock resounded at his office door.

"Come in."

"Boss, is there anything you need?" 'Food? Drink? Clothes?' Xu Long asked, while leaving the rest in his thoughts as he dare not to say them aloud.

Lu Tian's eyes remained on the documents in his hand, "Have you found the person?"

Eh? Person? What— Oh My God! Boss is inquiring about that beautiful woman from the airport?

"Did you find anything or are you just going to daydream there?"

Breaking his train of thoughts, Xu long cleared his throat.

"The owner of the bag and luggage is the woman who bumped into you at the airport, her name is Han Yue Ling. She is 28 years old. She is a model in the entertainment industry, but from my resources, tonight should be her farewell party to retirement. Also, she just moved to Imperial today and bought a place at Jade Condo. Besides being a model, once she retires, she'll go back to living a normal life."

"Jade Condo?" Lu Tian frown at the words. He also bought a place at Jade Condo. "Is that all?"

"As of right now, yes. Everything else seems to be blank." Xu Long answered as if he was a soldier in the military.

Xu Long hesitated for a second, but he gulped and spoke anyways, "Also another thing, Han Yue Ling is rated as one of Asia's top models and beauty. She's been number one on the ranking since 6 years ago."

Lu Tian creased his brows as he thought of something, then nod his head, "Mm. You can go then."

"Yes Boss!" Xu Long raise his hand and saluted before quickly leaving the room.

Lu Tian remained calm on the surface but deep down he was dumbfounded by what his assistant just did. Did he think Lu Tian was a general? He'll never understand this side from his assistant of 10 years.

Lu Tian set the documents in his hands down and looked to the hard white luggage and brown Louis Vuitton tote.

For some odd reason, his mind kept drifting to that woman's face and her voice, especially her mesmerizing eyes. Even more strange was, he didn't find her disgusting like all the other women.

There was an unknown feeling he's never felt before creeping its way into his heart without him knowing.

While Lu Tian was deep in his thoughts, in another almost rural part of Imperial, the Ji Mansion was currently a mess.

"Why hasn't she come see me? Am I not important to her anymore?"

An old man an all black loungewear with white hair in his early 70's yelled out angrily.

He paced back and forth in the middle of the living room, both his hands flying everywhere as he yells. "How can she just forget about me when she's already here?!"

"Her assistant already sent me a message and confirmed it!"

"Grandfather, please calm down. I'm sure Jie has her reasons." An attractive young man around 17 years old spoke, he was currently wearing his high school uniform.

"Jingxu, how can I calm down? I am her yeye! That ungrateful child! Wait till I see her!" The old man cursed and cursed without giving a care.

"I'll make her kneel outside and beg for forgiveness for forgetting someone as precious as myself!"

"..."

Jingxu could only shake his head while the servants all tremble in fear.

But, Jingxu knows that although the old man was cursing and is 'angry', anyone could see he was filled with worried and care.

"Grandfather, Jie has a party tonight, so I'm sure she'll come visit tomorrow." Jingxu spoke while trying to calm his grandfather down.

"Haaaaa..." Ji Huan let out a long sigh.

"I hope she does visit soon. That girl has been through so much already. I'm just really worried about her."

He gently pats Jingxu's head, "Good thing I have you here."

Ji Huan stood by the huge window and stare outside with both his hands behind his back.

Quietness overtook as he drifted into his own thoughts.

Jingxu smiled at his grandfather and glance out the window. But his heart was currently crying inside,

'Jie, where are you?! I don't know how long I can delay for you. Grandfather's on the verge of going ballistic!'
