As he was about to go in he got the call, looking at the phone screen he saw it was his mother and answered the call. Even though he was quiet perplexed why his mother was calling this early in the morning.

"Yes, but I already treated his and he will be fine as long as he follow my instructions. Also he can now sense his legs"

"What? Really what you said is true"

Li Jia Yi's shocked and disbelieving voice came from other end of the call. Lu Hong instinctively pused his phone away from his ear and once Li Jia Yi calmed down he spoke.

Lu Hong quickly closed the system panel without any change in expression. he was quiet numb after drawing so many amazing things for 3 months straight. Lu Hong stood up as he wade his way towards the shower after rinsing himself he stepped out wrapped in towel. Lu Hong selected a faded jeans along with the school basketball jersey and put it on.

After conversing with Lu Hua Yang for a moment Lu Hong took the Porsche speedster as it spread forward straight to the magic city university. After parking the car Lu Hong locked the door and turned around as he made his way towards the play ground. After sitting for half an hour Lu Hong was called over as it was his and his team's turn to play.

Lu Hong stood up as he walked to the participants area followed by Song Zi Sheng and Zhou shi Hai as three of them were in the same team. For the past few days Lu Hong and others put lot off effort in honing their sync, as everyone changed into fresh pair of shirts and shoes. Lu Hong Sat to the side as he looked through the documents system sent regarding Douyin live.

With the Whisle from the referee all the members of two teams gathered at the center of the court.

"Whisle"

As the time hit 25 minutes the referee blow an whistle as everyone collapsed onto the ground, Lu Hong and others walked back on to the rest area. The moment he sat on the bench several girls stormed over surrounding Lu Hong each carrying various beverages. Lu Hong was stunned and was about to reject politely when a voice broke from the end of the crowd.

"Please make the way"

Everyone turned around to depict a doll like figure with elegant and porcelain like skill took deliberate steps towards Lu Hong. Everyone who saw her stood their motionless too stunned to move, Morong Yu revealed a coolly smile as she sat beside Lu Hong. Raising her right hand into the air she revealed a bottle of sparkling water bottle as she spoke.

"Lu Hong, Ms. Bu told me to pass it to you along with a note I am pinning my hopes on you"

Lu Hong took the bottle not saying anything as he was well aware that Morong Yu was giving him a way out. Morong Yu shot a cold sidelong glance at the girls standing around as if she was was claiming her property. All the girls present were well aware that they were no match for her and left in dejection.

For the next half of the match Lu Hong sat on the side lines giving all his teammates a chance to play. Either way the Finance class 2 won in the end as Lu Hong already scored enough points to win the game. In the afternoon class 2 of finance took 4 the consecutive wins in a row advancing them directly to the semi quarter finals.

After his last game for the day Lu Hong left the ground alongside Morong Yu as he agreed to take her to the shopping. After changing himself into a casual clothes Lu Hong walked straight to the parking area only to find people surrounding his car.

Squeezing to the front of the crowd Lu Hong asked around and found that. Apparently a girl from the computer science department was sheduled to report late took a shortcut since her luggage was heavy. She tripper and lost balance as her body crashed straight into his car.

Lu Hong lips twitched slightly feeling annoyed as it was second time his car getting damaged in the campus. Soon Morong Yu noticed Lu Hong as she approached him saying

"I already checked their was no severe damage tothe car just a small dent to the front rear and few scratches"

Lu Hong nodded as he can see it from a far due to his keen eye sight, Lu Hong walked ahead as Morong Yu followed him. First he looked at the frail figure with round thick glasses wearing a faded shirt and jeans sitting to the side as she clutched a big bulging bag.

The women sensing Lu Hong gaze upon her raised her head looked at Lu Hong her eyes devoid of any emotion only filled with pure halo. She looked like she had gone through he'll with no hope on life.

"Are you the owner of the car?"

Jiang Mu Xue enquired her voice hoarse vioce devoid of any warmth, Lu Hong didn't respond instead bent slightly as he extended his hand asking

"Are you alright?"

Jiang Mu Xue was taken aback yet she maintained her cold and indifferent attitude as she spoke.

"I will write an IOU and repay the damage cost in installments"

"No need, how about we talk somewere else"

Lu Hong suggested not discouraged or anger, Jiang Mu Xue looked around and glanced at the gradually gathering crowd and nodded. Lu Hong took Jiang Mu Xue and Morong Yu to the cafeteria as Lu Hong ordered two bubble tea along with a cup of warm water. Placing the warm water infront of Jiang Mu Xue before placing one cup of bubble tea 🧋 in front of Morong Yu.

Taking his place opposite Jiang Mu Xue and Morong Yu as he took a sip before getting straight to business.

"The car costed me 3 million and looking at the damage infected on itcosts approximately 50,000 to 100,000. You have two choices one work for me after graduation or become my personal Butler starting today."

Lu Hong is not jesting as he already investigated Jiang Mu Xue's circumstances and was well aware of her hacking proves. Winning several awards and medals since childhood several top companies had already offered her a substantial amount to retrain her.

But she insisted on attending college and got in purely through her skills without any degree. As for her family she was adopted by a middle aged couple as they can't have kids but soon after an year they were blessed with a baby boy. Since then they stopped distancing themself from Jiang Mu Xue and the only reason they kept her around was the substantial amount she earned.

The grip around the glass tightened as she looked at Lu Hong trying to discern his thoughts. but all she saw was composed Lu Hong sipping his tea. Lu Hong sensing her hesitation placed his cup down as he added

"I can help you find your birth parents"

Thanks to the artificial information he draw from the system lu hong found out the identities of Jiang Mu Xue's parents identity. Jiang Mu Xue hands on the cup trembled slightly as she showed a rare expression of anticipation. Jiang Mu Xue always eager to know about her biological parents and want to ask many questions she was holding in.

Morong Yu sitting beside Jiang Mu Xue raised an eye brow filled with disbelief and bewilderment. Lu Hong gave her a reassuring glance before continuing sipping his tea. Jiang Mu Xue fiddling with her straw contemplating her choice amd finally decided to investigate Lu Hong background as she spoke.

"Can I respond tomorrow morning?"

"No problem"

Saying that Lu Hong didn't lingerie any longer and departed along with Morong Yu, Jiang Mu Xue lingerie for a while before departing.

Meanwhile far away in Imperial capital Li family residence, the old man with residing hair and advanced In age sat at the head of the table in front of him sat two middle-aged men amd a women. If Lu Hong was here he would recognize the women as his mother Li Jia Yi, the elderly man cleared his throught and spoke with an utmost seriousness.

"Long family announced that whomever found their missing young lady will be awarded with a substantial amount of wealth and will pledge their utmost sincerity. Jia Yi your vast network of connections around the country,"
