"Ms. Lu please don't go there," the engineer continued to request her but the words fell on the deaf ears. Lu Lian continued walking and not having any other option the engineer continued to walk with her so she wouldn't fall down and hurt herself.
The dust around was a little clear and Lu Lian reached where everyone was trying to move big pieces of the collapsed part of the roof along with the iron bars.
Soon the ambulance reached there as five private ambulances were always assigned to the construction site in case there were any accidents and people were hurt, which was a normal thing to happen on such huge construction sites.
The paramedics hurried to the site with stretchers as the others on the site joined them.
One engineer among the group of people who were trying to move the collapsed part and save everyone there saw Lu Lian and ran towards her, "Ms. Lu, you should not be here."
"Where is Mr. Ming? She asked as the engineer next to her held her to support. The blood was constantly dripping from her forehead, though the engineer with her tried to stop it with a cloth but she didn't care.
The other engineer looked sad as he answered, "We are trying to get him out of it. The condition doesn't look so good. Please stay away so we can do our job."
Lu Lian lost whatever left strength in her feet and fell on the ground as the engineer managed to catch her on time.
With her half-opened eyes, she saw one man completely covered in blood being taken away as his stomach was pierced with an iron rod. With this, her heart almost stopped beating and she heard the worried engineer, "They are almost done, he will be out soon."
She didn't hear it as she continued to sit on the ground helplessly with the support of that engineer and mumbled, "Rusheng... you need to be alright."
Just then she heard people, "He is out. Get the stretcher."
Lu Lian's heavy eyes moved towards the group of people and stuck at them to see if he was fine.
Soon after some time, a blood-covered man in a suit was being carried on the stretchers as oxygen support was attached to his mouth and bandages to stop the bleeding from his head.
Lu Lian recognized him though the entire was covered with blood and nothing about him was recognizable.
The tears she managed to hold back in a hope to see him alright, finally rolled down her cheeks as he didn't look fine at all and she gave up on holding onto her consciousness. She fainted and soon after was carried to the hospital in an ambulance along with other injured people.
The entire site was filled with the noises of ambulances as more of them arrived from the outside.

In Ming Mansion…
Zhang Jei was busy in the kitchen along with the servants as the next day was a special day.
"Why are you so busy in the kitchen, mother," MIng Lan asked.
"Tomorrow I plan to cook everything your brother liked when he was a kid," Zhang Jei replied, "These dishes can't be prepared in just a day. So I need to prepare from today."
"Ohh, it's because it's his birthday tomorrow," Ming Lan concluded.
"Hmm, even I am preparing all this after so many years so not sure how it will taste."
"Brother always liked whatever you made mother. He just never told you that."
"Really?"
"Hmm. You know he is just tight-lipped when it comes to admitting or appreciating something."
"True. So stingy with words. I wonder how he will ever get a girl with that attitude. Even your father and grandfather are better than him."

"There must be a girl who must only like this tight-lipped cold man."
"I hope so. I don't want him to be single. I think it's high time for me to be addressed as a grandmother."
"That will make me an aunt," Ming Lan said happily and looked at what her mother was making, "What is that mother?"
"This is longevity noodles meant to wish the person for his long life," Zhang Zei informed, "It should be longer and cooked as just one long noodle strand as the entire dish. I can't break it."
"Looks difficult."
"Hmm, I want my son to have a long life filled with happiness only."
"Mother, just like brother, you too never showed him how much you love him. You always act like a strict mother."
Zhang Jei smiled, "Don't worry, he will see his new mother from tomorrow onward."
Smash!
Just then they heard a sound and turned to see what happened. The servant who was arranging the glasses in the stands broke one of them as it smashed on the floor.
"Apologies, Mistress," she bowed.
"It's fine. Just clean it up," Zhang Jei said and turned to her work but the long noodle she had just made was broken and she looked at it in disbelief. "How did this break?"
Ming Lan looked at it too and then looked at her sad mother, "It's fine mother, You can make it again."
"But..this should not break like this...I was careful…"
"Mother, it's fine. Let's make it again."
"It's ominous," Zhang Jei mumbled.
Just then, the servant came there, "Mistress, the master is looking for you."
"What happened?"
"Not sure but he looks in a hurry."
Zhang Jei left what she was doing and hurried out with Ming Lan after washing her hands.
"What happened?'' she asked, looking at her restless husband walking here and there in the living room.
"We need to go to the hospital, right now."
"Why? What.."
"Rusheng is hurt… just hurry up…."
Both ladies were left shocked, "Hurt? How did he get hurt?"
"Don't ask much. Are you coming or should I leave," he said angrily as worry for his son took over him.
Without asking much the two ladies followed him and they left for the hospital where Ming Rusheng was taken too.
Soon the news about the incident had spread everywhere and it was the headline on all the news channels. Every business family was shocked with the news that Ming Rusheng was hurt and in the news, they had been informed that the conditions didn't look so good.
Elder Ming was with his friend elder Lu when all this happened. A car arrived to get elder Ming as he was informed that Ming Rusheng was hurt and needed to go to the hospital. Elder Lu also accompanied him.
This news reached the Lus also that Ming Rusheng and Lu Lian both were hurt.. They hurried to the hospital.
