__Lu Corporation Chairman office__
"Sir, Young Master has secured the deal with the merchants from Japan and will be back on Tuesday. I would like your signature on the documents so we can proceed further." Secretary Park said.
"Hmm.... good for him." Father Lu replied while signing the documents. "And what about my wife's birthday celebration?"
"You have assigned the Second young master to be in charge of this year's celebration. The manager has given a few suggestions."
"Hmm, ask him to confirm with me before finalizing. It's his first time organizing such a big event without Ruo Bei, I don't want any trouble."
"Yes, Sir"
RING RING MELODY
Just then Father Lu's phone rang.
"Hello?"
"..."
"Hmm, I'll be there." Father Lu sat there for a while without moving. He looked shocked.
"Sir.... Sir?"
"Hmm?"
"Are you okay? You look pale. Is everything alright?" Secretary Park asked looking worried.
"Yes, send me to the base."
"Yes, sir."
__Base__
"Did you just say that I have to bring a stranger home and pretend to her uncle? And that unknown girl will be impersonating my princess? Haha Haha..." Father Lu exclaimed.
"We know that it's not a good thing to do but Lu, this is a mission and a very important one at that." Commander Sung stated.
"Alright tell me about it first."
"There is an Indian agent named Kale who has gone rogue and is selling confidential information. One day during a project he joined hands with the enemy. Because of his betrayal, many of their members have been sacrificed. From our intelligence, we found out that he had started his organization in many countries. He was seen in our country many times. They think that he's going to do something big here. He is a threat to us as well. We tried finding and capturing him but to no avail. He is like a snake, slipping out of our hands."
"So, what does that have to do with a girl coming to my house?"
"That girl is the only person who has an upper hand over him, and she is the only one who can complete this mission."
"And why is that so?"
"Because she has personal relations with him. He has divulged intelligence about many of his coworkers except her."
"What if he discloses her info after her arrival?"
"She'll be coming here as Rhi Ning Xi, your best friend's daughter."
Hearing this Father Lu sighed again.
"Has it been approbated?"
"Yes, it has been approved by the higher-ups."
"Alright, but I need to meet her first."
"Yes, you'll meet her first as you have to make her the real Rhi Ning Xi. No one should suspect her and even if someone does, you have to make sure she knows even the color of your clothes when she was born. You have to teach and tell her every single detail that Rhi Ning Xi should know."
"Sigh...hmm. When is she arriving?"
Next week. Three days before your wife's birthday and she will attend the party and make a public appearance."
"You mean I have to teach her in three days? Are you kidding me!! How is it even possible to change a person's behavior in three days? Eight years of information.... it is a whole eight years dammit."
"She is a very smart person we have cooperated with her a few times. She'll grasp it faster than you think. You don't need to worry about that."
"Alright, I hope what we're doing will succeed and will be over soon." Saying Father Lu stood up to leave.
__In the car__
'Sigh'
'Sigh'
The driver and the secretary looked at each other questioning what was wrong with their boss today.
"Sir, is everything alright?" After some contemplation, Secretary Park asked.
"Sigh... do you think Ruo Bei will kill her?"
Secretary Park: ~°○°~ (Wide eyes, open mouth)
Screech!!!
"Sor...sorry sir there was a rock in the middle of the road." the driver blurted.
"Ahh haa I know what type of rock it was. You guys... there's no need to be so shocked. I was just exaggerating. I don't mean it literally." Father Lu uttered.
"Sir, why do you think so?"
"You'll know soon...Sigh."
__Lu mansion, study__
Knock knock
"Come in."
"You called for me father." Ruo Bei walked in.
"Hmm, there is something I wanted to tell you about. Come sit."
"Yes father."
"We have got a mission."
Hearing that Ruo Bei became serious.
"We?"
"No, actually it is my mission and its confidential, but I don't want you to be in the dark. It's about princess.'
"Jaan? What about her? Did you find her?" Ruo Bei became flustered.
"No, we didn't find her and she's never coming back so forget about it."
"She'll definitely coming back."
"Focus on the mission!" Saying Father Lu threw the documents in front of him.
"A woman impersonating Princess will be coming here and staying with us. She will become Rhi Ning Xi.'
"No way! I'll never allow anyone to become Jaan."
"It's a secret mission assigned to us by the higher ups. I am not asking your permission; I'm just informing you about it."
"You agreed to it?"
"You think I have a choice? I can't refute them. The orders are from higher ups."
"Why? Why does she have to impersonate Jaan?"
"Because no one knows her. This is the best choice for them."
"Whatever it is I won't allow it." Ruo Bei stood up ready to leave.
"You are not to do anything Lu Ruo Bei. I told you about it not for you to create a scene but because I don't want you to think that she's back and treat her as such."
"You think I can't recognize her?"
"She'll be fully trained before coming here. Do you think you'd be able to differentiate between them. And what we have are just memories of childhood nothing else."
"I'll never ever treat her as Jaan."
He strode out of the study. But just as he opened the door Father Lu said, "Don't tell anyone about it; I'll tell your mother later and Joon doesn't need to know."
The door close with a Bang.
SIGH
Father Lu felt tired. He kept kneading his forehead.
