Mentor (3)

Lu Yang who had been watching the incident via the transparent window glass could not help smiling.

" Pfft... 幼稚 ( childish) ..!"

The assistant standing beside him also left out a loud laugh only to get a glare from the 'Boss'.

[Insert NCT U - BOSS] ( It's a bop.)

Lu Yang saw the old man instructing the nurse something. The nurse then walked to the teachers and told them something and suddenly all the teachers began to gather the children together.

The teachers and the children all seemed to be excited about something.

The old man instructed the children to settle down.

In the meantime, Lina brought over a large canvas and readied the easel and paints and brush. The teachers distributed brush and colour to the children and they themselves sat together with them.

The old man sat in front of the canvas and adjusted the canvas and prepared the ink.

" So, my dear children, today we are going to learn a new type of drawing. This old jiejie of yours will also learn with you and your teaches too. So are you ready ?? "

The children were excited as ever " Yes Yeye!! " The were happy beyond any bound.

The other teachers were blushing enthusiastically. I mean who would wish to lose a chance to learn from THE 'Ye YuKhei' aka 'Lucas Ye'.

Lina also set her paper ready.

The old smiled seeing the eager crowd infront and began moving the brush on the canvas.

" Welcome to the world of calligraphy. Watch carefully. "

Lina couldn't held back happy tears. Her shifu was now teaching his greatest artistic creation ever. She had been longing for this day since she didn't know when. At this time she missed her sister so much. Rini was also very fond of Yeye's drawing.

She secretary picked up the phone and began to record the moment. This scene was too precious for the sisters. She decided to make her sister a part of this historic moment too.

Lu Yang noticed her unusual response from outside. Hundreds of questions were coming to his mind. But the old man making strokes on the white canvas suppressed all the other thoughts in his head. He stood there witnessing them in amusement. There was some melancholic feeling making waves.

Suddenly, the assistant made him coming back to the present by elbowing him repeatedly.

Feeling the irritation Lu Yang turned to him to give a scolding for disturbing him from seeing such valuable moments. But the assistant indicated towards something infront.

He saw the attending nurse from before coming out of the studio.

Lu Yang hurriedly walked towards her and asked to stop there for a moment.

" Excuse me ma'am. Do you know where Lucas Ye stays? Where can I find him? " He was sure about the old man's identity. Of course, he had spent his entire childhood running around him. How he could not recognise him? But his assistant was yet to make an appointment. His every effort went into vein. He was unable to meet with the management.

The women strangely looked at him. She was seemingly panicked. .

" Ma'am please. It's urgent. Please. Can you just tell us how to connect with the management? "

" I don't know any Lucas Ye staying here. " The woman threw these words before running off somewhere. Lu Yang noticed sweat beads already forming over her forehead.

The Nurse Xia Qing was helpless. The old man really loved his privacy and she had already signed agreement with the management about nit revealing his information with anyone.

Ye YuKhei had strictly forbidden any interaction with strangers especially those who came looking for him.

In the past few years who haven't come looking for him after the news about him staying here was revealed by a temporary worker. There was numerous celebrities, industrialists, art- collectors, artists.Who was not in the list! Everyone wanted to meet him. But he refused every request. And the management had to publish a false official notice that stated "'Lucas Ye' is not staying here. Please respect the privacy of the residents."

Right after the incident, the management not only increased the security around here but also made agreements with the workers to keep mum about him. One had to make personally contact him to make appointment.

How could she give information to a stranger so easily! Nurse Xia didn't reply further and ran towards the security office to inform the management about two strange men looking for him inside the campus.

Lu Yang helplessly stared at the studio.

He really wanted to meet him. It's been years since their last meeting. Beside his grandfather, he too missed this 'Yeye'.

He began to think about different ways to approach him. And, Lina's presence here and her interaction with his 'yeye' increased the level of his curiosity.

Suddenly he saw a little boy running towards the studio. His small hands were full of drawing book and board.

Lu Yang approved him from behind.

" Hey kiddo! Wait up.!"

The toddler stopped and looked up to him. He was pleasantly surprised. The tall man wearing sunglass was calling him. He stared at him for some time as if remembering all of his features in full details.

" Hey Kiddo wait up!!" Lu Yang bent down and asked him gently.

" Can I talk to you?"

The boy just stared at him without blinking. Lu Yang thought if he had scared him.

" Yes. But hurry up. I'm late for the class." He pointed towards the studio.

Lu Yang gave him a chocolate from his pocket. He had this habit of eating Candy so he used to stuff his pockets with them since childhood.

The boy stared at the chocolate for few seconds and shyly asked him for another one.

" It's Jiejie's favorite. Can I have another one please?" His chubby cheeks were slightly red in embarrassment.

" Your jiejie?" Lu Yang gave him the last one left in his pocket. " She loves this?"

" Yes, my jiejie. She gives us this candy every time she comes here. Her bag is full of them." The kid pointed towards a girl inside the studio. " See my Jiejie. Over there. "

Lu Yang looked back towards where his finger was pointed. He saw an attentive Lina watching the old man carefully.

" She is your jiejie? So pretty. "

" Don't look at her. She is mine. Lina jie is only Renren's." The kid glared at him.

"Pfft..." Assistant Mu, the man standing behind Lu Yang could not stop laughing at his answer.

" Okay. I'll not look. She is only your Jie." Lu Yang assured him with a gentle smile on his lips. " But can you take me to meet him ?" He pointed towards the old man.

" No. No. Yeye doesn't like visitors. Jiejie will scold me. You contact the reception. Get appointment." The kid was now impatient.

And once Yang let go of his hand , he ran off towards the studio.

" Thanks for these." He suddenly stopped on his way and turned back to thank him.
