Chapter 152 When the time comes (2/2)

Sitting at the side of the bed, Old man Ji looks at Jingxu. His mind couldn't help but think about what happened to Ting.

Ting situation is like Jingxu's back then. Even though it was he and his wife who took Jingxu in, it was Yue Ling who pulled Jingxu out of the darkness. It would be good if Yue Ling can help Ting too...

However... he can't help but worry about Yue Ling. His granddaughter has been helping people escape darkness, but when the time comes, who will help pull her out of the darkness?

———-

Outside of De L'amour, Lu Tian parks the car right in front of the door entrance. He looks at the dark building and he frowns.

He knows that Yue Ling owns De L'amour, but why is the building not even half the size of Lu Corps. Not only that, he's driven pass An Qing and it's bigger than this puny building.

Yue Ling looks at Lu Tian and she held in her laugh. She knew what was on his mind. It was written all on his frown. Gathering her things, she smiles.

”Tian, don't judge a book by its cover.”

She spoke in a calm voice, then she unbuckles her seatbelt. While Lu Tian was still frowning over his wife's small company, she leans over to him. Catching him by surprise, Yue Ling pecks his lips.

”See you later.”

Not waiting to see his reaction, she bolted out of the car.

”.....”

Watching his wife disappear into the dark doors, he sighs. How he wish she can be in his line of sight, every second of the day.

Entering De L'amour, Yue Ling takes a deep breath. She glance at the time and she sighs again. It is 5 minutes till 2pm. That means she's been at Lu Tian's company for almost 2 hours. Ahh... what kind of boss is she to go out for such a long lunch....

What Yue Ling did not know is that in secret, Lu Tian had already notified Liu Shan about keeping his wife at his office longer.

”Boss, you're back already?”

Liu Shan calls out as he grins like an idiot. He looks at Yue Ling then covers his mouth and giggles like a little girl.

”Heheh, Boss, you could have stayed a bit longer to enjoy your 'lunch'.”

His brows twitching upwards as if hinting something to Yue Ling.

”...”

Yue Ling looks at her assistant. He actually changed out of his beggar outfit from earlier into a more stylish and put together outfit. Shaking her head, she walks towards the elevator. However, when she walked passed him, she smacks Liu Shan's head.

”Since you stopped looking like a beggar, stop joking and get back to work.”

”...”

Liu Shan laughs heartily and caress the part of his head Yue Ling smacked. It was like a small pat on the head, but he made it look like it hurts very much. Still laughing, he follows behind his boss.

From the behind, Sophia had just come back from the ladies room and she was dumbfounded. She had witnessed her boss hit assistant Liu on the head. Yet, the man was not one bit angry. Instead he laughed like a crazy girl and follows after.

Shaking her head, she sits down and starts working. Even though she just started working at De L'amour, she knows that Yue Ling and Liu Shan hold a strong bond. She once heard Ming Yue say the two were in a secret affair, but to Sophia and everyone else, their bond for each other was more like close siblings.
