"Okay. I won't stay up late, " said Linda.
Pleased with her response, Anna left.
Linda withdrew her eyes from Anna's back and looked at Lily Jiang. Linda could tell that Lily Jiang felt a bit awkward when Nelson's name was mentioned a few minutes ago.
Linda was sure that Nelson liked Lily Jiang a lot. If he didn't like her, he wouldn't pick her up after school everyday.
Nelson was a very busy man. He had to deal with different kinds of errands in the Nalan clan and handle the office work in the Nalan clan's company. Despite all that, he still would manage to pick Lily Jiang up. It was obvious that he was into Lily Jiang.
"Lily, I have an important mission for you. Could you invite Nelson to play mahjong with us?"
"He is very busy. I don't think he can spare time to play mahjong with us, " Lily Jiang said awkwardly.
"Even if he is busy, he should spend some time with you. If you fail to bring him over, you could stay with him tonight. Don't bother to come back here then, " Bun said with a smirk on her face. She was teasing Lily Jiang.
Lily Jiang blushed and said, "Stop it."
"Hurry! It's over six o'clock. We only have three or four hours left. I need to go to bed early, " said Linda.
"Okay, okay. I'll go and ask him now, but I need to discuss something with you before I go. Do you still remember the indecent photos we downloaded from Amy's cell phone? Her underwear selfies?" asked Lily Jiang.
"Yes. What's wrong?"
"Back then, we were thinking about posting them on the internet to humiliate Amy. But now..."
Lily Jiang stopped talking, since they all knew that Amy was dead.
Lily Jiang was a kind-hearted woman. She thought that it would be cruel to post the photos now.
"But, My Lady, Amy had almost killed you, and she had made you suffer a lot. Don't you want to do something about the photos?" asked Bun.
Bun had always hated Amy. She thought that Amy could never make up for what she had done to Linda even she was already dead.
"Let's delete all the photos. Amy is dead now. I think she had realized her mistakes before she died in the hospital. She was stubborn. If she had another chance, she still would not let go of Charles. Nothing would change even we posted her photos. Just get rid of them."
Lily Jiang nodded her head and said, "Okay, then. I'll delete them all."
Then, Lily Jiang rushed to Nelson's room.
She knocked on the door, and Nelson opened it soon enough.
He was surprised to see Lily Jiang outside his room.
"What's wrong, Lily?"
"Lady Linda asked me to invite you to play mahjong with us. Do you know how to play?"
"Yes, I do know a little about it."
Nelson had been really busy lately. It was the end of the month, and he had to sift through others' reports. He also needed to finish his own monthly report. But, since it was Lily Jiang who invited him, he agreed.
"Okay, then. Let's go!"
Lily Jiang was very happy that Nelson agreed. Her face was red because she had run to his room in a hurry, but she still looked cute.
"Don't run so fast next time. You are sweating."
Nelson went inside his room and retrieved some tissues. He helped her wipe the sweat off her face.
Lily Jiang's face grew even redder because of Nelson's action. Her heart raced. She turned around and said, "Hurry up. Lady Linda is waiting."
"Lily, "
Nelson shouted at her from behind.
"What's wrong?"
