Chapter 871 Her Thrilling Driving Skills...
Lu Corporations…
Jiang Yuyan was discussing something with Xiao Min, and there was a knock on the door.
San Zemin entered the office, feeling happy but trying to maintain a stern face. Jiang Yuyan and Xiao Min looked at him, knowing there must be something.
"Boss, I have news," San Zemin spoke.
"Hmm!"
"Fourth young master is returning home," San Zemin wanted for his boss' reaction, but she resumed her work, saying, "Hmm!"
"He is leaving tomorrow evening and would be here the day after tomorrow," San Zemin added.
"Hmm."
Jiang Yuyan's reaction was still the same as if it was nothing so important.
"Are you not happy, boss?" San Zemin asked while Xiao Min was not surprised by this kind of reaction from her.
"His family is here, so one day he had to come back," came the cold reply from the cold woman.
Puzzled, San Zemin looked at Xiao Min, who signaled him as if saying let it be. Just then, they heard their boss.
"Do I have any business trips planned? If not, then plan it for tomorrow."
"Boss, there is no trip this month, and if we plan tomorrow, it's a weekend," Xiao Min informed, and Jiang Yuyan sighed.
Xiao Min knew why his boss asked for it, but he didn't want her to go, and fortunately, there was no plan for her to leave the city.
"I will be in my home," Instructing, Jiang Yuyan closed the file in her hand and got up to leave.
It was Friday, and every Friday after her office work, Jiang Yuyan stayed in her and Lu Qiang's private home and came back on Sunday night to Lu Mansion.
During these last two days of the week, Xiao Min made sure not to disturb her unless it's an emergency.
While leaving Lu corporation as the driver waited for her, she instructed him to give her car keys.
The driver looked hesitant as he looked at Xiao Min.
Jiang Yuyan noticed it, "Seems like Xiao Min is your boss."
The driver spoke, "N-No boss. The road is not safe today, so I will drive."
"Xiao Min, ask San Zemin to change the driver," Jiang Yuyan instructed, and the driver felt the cold line of sweat on his forehead.
Before it got serious, Xiao Min instructed, "He is just worried, thinking the boss must be tired and not safe to drive." Xiao Min signaled the driver to pass her keys, and the driver did so.
Jiang Yuyan got the keys. "No need to come with me," instructing the driver, she sat in the car and drove away while the driver looked worried.
"I hope the boss's driving gets better and safer soon," the driver commented.
"She is driving for years now, trust her," Xiao Min instructed.
The furrowed lines appeared on the driver's forehead, "Trust? Boss doesn't know there is a break in the car. She only knows to step on the gas. Last Friday, she gave me a heart attack."
"But you are still alive, so you should be happy, Yinzi."
"I am worried about our boss that she would hurt herself one day," the driver countered.
The driver was the same appointed by San Zemin since the day Jiang Yuyan became their boss. Just like San Zemin and Xiao Min, he cared for his boss too.
"Hmm, driving is the only thing boss can't handle…I still remember those thrilling experiences of my life when she asked me to let her drive, and since then, my life turned upside down."
Xiao Min smiled, and both remembered the days when Jiang Yuyan practiced driving on the weekends.
The first day, she sat on the driver seat while the driver sat on the co-driver seat and looked at her, "Boss, are you sure you can drive."
"Do you dare doubt?" saying confidently, Jiang Yuyan started the car, but it stopped with the jerk the next moment.
The driver said nothing, and she started again but happened the same few more times, and she slammed her hands on the steering wheels in frustration.
"What brand car is this? I don't want any car of this brand around," saying she stepped out of the car.
"B-Boss, it was not the car's fault," the driver tried to speak, not intending to offend his boss.
Jiang Yuyan gave him a narrowed eyed look, "Is it my fault?"
"N-not at all. I will change the car," the driver assured.
The next day, they got another car of a different brand, and it ended up banging on the roadside tree, but the car was at slow speed and equipped with all safety measures, so the impact was light.
Jiang Yuyan stepped out of the car, angrily, "I didn't like this car."
"Boss, are you fine," the driver was worried if his boss was hurt, but his boss's ego was more potent than his worry.
"Get a good car, or you won't be fine," Jiang Yuyan warned.
"This one is one of the safest cars and best cars... in.. the... world....."
The driver stopped speaking as he could sense daggers flying towards him the way his boss looked at him.
He bowed his head, "I will get the better one for the boss."
The third day was better where the car didn't collide anywhere but ended up climbing the roadside low height divider.
"This car is canceled too," Jiang Yuyan said, stepping out of the car angrily.
The brands after brands were getting canceled every day by the boss. The driver, Yun lee, Xiao Min and San Zemin, felt worried if they would have any car left to drive, or they would have to buy bicycles soon.
No one dared to tell her that the cars were fine, but she was not a good driver. Thankfully, soon Jiang Yuyan got hold of it and could drive, but it was not something to feel good about because once she learned to drive, there was no break under her feet.
She used to drive faster on the highways, and others were thankful that she at least didn't like to put others' lives in danger by going at speed on the busy roads inside the city and preferred to let the driver do his job.
She always did it on highways as driving inside the city at slow speed was boring for her.
Still, the way she drove on highways scared the driver and Xiao Min, who sometimes accompanied her and experienced the thrilling drive with her holding the breaths, praying for their lives.

In the night, Lu Lijun returned after spending time with his two friends, and Jerome welcomed him by bowing, only to hear something surprising.
"I am leaving for China?" Lu Lijun informed him.
"May I ask, when is the plan?" Jerome asked.
"Tomorrow evening," Replying, Lu Lijun stepped towards the staircase.
It surprised Jerome, "Tomorrow?"
"Hmm, would be back soon."
Lu Lijun went to his room while Martha heard everything and came to Jerome.
"Did I hear it right?" she asked.
Jerome nodded, "Hmm, let's prepare to see him off tomorrow. We might not see him again here."
"Didn't he just say he would be back?"
"I don't think he will," said Jerome left to go to his room.
Jerome and Martha were happy that Lu Lijun would finally go back to his family, but somewhere they were sad too as they would miss him.
----------
The next morning, Lu Mansion.
Everyone was sitting at the breakfast table, and Lu Jinhai informed, "I have one good news for you all.
The others looked at him with the anticipation, and Lu Jinhai replied, "Lu Lijun is returning home."
With this, everyone stopped what they were doing as if the time stopped and continued looking at Lu Jinhai, thinking they heard something wrong.
"Are you telling the truth?" elder Lu asked.
"Yes, he and father would be here day after tomorrow," Lu Jinhai confirmed.
Ning Jiahui was Uttley shocked and stopped eating as she was ready to get up, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I haven't prepared anything. His room, his…."
"Calm down," Lu Jinhai instructed.
"How can I? He is coming after so many years, finally. I need to…."
"We will do everything we can. He decided it yesterday, and Xiao Dong told me today,"
"It's good that finally, he decided to return, or I thought I won't get to see him ever," grandma commented as she looked happy.
"Does Yuyan know it?" elder Lu asked.
"Nothing can be unknown to her," Lu Jinhai commented.
"Hmm!"
----------
Lu Lijun packed his needed stuff and was ready to leave for the airport in the evening.
"Have a safe journey, Fourth young master," Martha wished, and Lu Lijun nodded.
Jerome accompanied Lu Lijun to the airport, where Noah already waited for him.
"I thought you had changed the plan," Noah teased, but Lu Lijun didn't reply.
"Have you informed your family that you are coming?" Noah asked.
"No need to inform. Right now, they must already be planning to welcome me."
"I forgot you are no less than our highness, Jake."
"Looks like someone missed me."
Both looked at the person who just talked.
Noah chuckled, "Jake, you never give us a chance to miss you, as you are always around," Noah commented.
"Now, you will get a chance once you are in China," said Jake.
"Let's see if we miss or you miss us more. If you do, then don't cry and just come to us," Noah teased.
Jake frowned as he looked at Noah, "Cry? My ass and for you, never."
Lu Lijun, who calmly listened to his friends' argument, put his hand on Jake's shoulder, "Think before you talk."
Jake shrugged his shoulders to get Lu Lijun's hands-off from his shoulder and looked at him, who offered him a teasing smile.
"I hope this smile will last till the moment you step inside your home."
The smile on lu Lijun's lips disappeared, and Noah gave a displeased look to Jake.
"It's time. We should go," Noah instructed.
Saying bye to Jake and Jerome, both left.
