Zhang Mansion – 9:45
The Secret Weapon

"Sir, but it's the truth---"

Zhang Zidong threw a penetrating stare at the informant. "A sudden field trip, you say? Then this must be Yoonjae's doing."

Behind him was Yuqi laying on the bed, with seven needles inserted into seven different veins. Her father smoothed her curly brown locks while staring at her unconscious face. "Xuan and I never regretted having children."

There were loud bangings on the door and Zidong gave one last look to the man standing. "Do invite Yoonjae and his wife here tonight, I have important matters to discuss with them."

Lucas was anxiously pacing outside the room. His father has been inside with Yuqi for almost three hours and it's already past bedtime for the both of them. He couldn't help himself but knock on the door politely. "Dad, is Yuqi done?"

The door opened and Lucas' attempt to peek inside failed as his father's bulk figure was refraining him from doing so. "Yuqi's perfectly fine, Yukhei." The man said and carried the boy into his arms. "Let's tuck you into bed. Where's Mama?"

Lucas trashed wildly in his arms, punching his neck. "Put me down, you old fart! Bring me to Big Sis!" He demanded and cried, "And where's Yuqi?!"

"Father, do you need help?" Jackson appeared standing in the hallway. He comes by and extended his hands in offer.

"Thank you." Zidong practically threw Lucas to him and rushed away, combing his slick hair back tiredly.

"You shouldn't anger him, Yukhei. Otherwise Yuqi might stay in that room even longer." Jackson scolded quietly. He put Lucas down and the boy immediately grabbed Jackson's hand.

"C'mon, let's get you to bed." Jackson twisted the doorknob and ushered him inside. Lucas frowned, "But this is not even my room---"

Jackson sofly pushed him inside and Lucas tripped with a yelp. "Ow! What was that for?!" He whined and dusted his knees. "Whoaa.. is this really your room, Big Sis?"

Tzuyu turned back to see Lucas gazing up at the stingrays above the glass ceiling

Tzuyu turned back to see Lucas gazing up at the stingrays above the glass ceiling. "I've never seen your room like this, Big Sis! It's so cool!"

The young woman bent down to pick up her little sibling so he could get a closer look at the hammerhead shark peering at him. "Welcome to the night mode of my room."

Jackson closed the door and went to stand beside her. "Found anything yet?"

Tzuyu shook her head. "Not yet," Swiping two fingers in air, she scrolled through all the receipts she retrieved through her father's business phone. "Clearly there wasn't anything regarding our blood. Only properties, land negotiations and covering corruption scandals,"
