Chapter 625 Get back on my fee (1/2)
The rest of the car ride to the fabric company was in complete silence. Neither Yue Ling nor Liu Shan made a sound as the boss and assistant kept to themselves. Not because they didn't want to say anything, but because they were immersed in their own thoughts.
They had kept their dream to themselves as they thought others would think they sound crazy. However, after letting it all out, a part of them felt a sense of peace inside.
To some, it may have only been a dream, but to be able to see your loved ones again, it was the greatest thing ever.
After another moment of silence, Yue Ling looks at the sky one last time. What she did not know was that, in that same day, the three men in her life had also looked up at the sky as her.
She turns her head away from the window and looks down at the tablet in her hand. She calmly turns it off and set it aside.
”Shan, don't blame yourself for what happened.”
She wasn't referring to the incident that took her child away but was referring to what happened to Chen Yifeng.
”He will not want to see you live in regret and guilt.”
Ever since his passing, she knows that Liu Shan has been blaming himself for their friend's death. She knows because despite them in City Z at the time, the assistant would occasionally ask for a day or two off so that he could visit Chen Yifeng's grave in Imperial.
She believes that in Liu Shan's most crucial moment in life, Chen Yifeng came to his dream to loosen that knot of regret and guilt that had been accumulated over the passing years.
It was their deceased friend's way of telling Liu Shan to let go and stop blaming himself.
Liu Shan had only freed his eyes of any tears when he heard his boss's words. However, his heart still felt like it was shattered into millions of pieces. The pain he grieved over his good friend's death is by far the most painful feeling he carries on his shoulders.
Even when he had his heart broken from Ling Ni, that aching pain was not comparable to the loss of his friend who he will never see again but in a dream.
As he thought this, he ponders about Yue Ling's words. She was right. He must have dreamt about Chen Yifeng because his friend wants him to move on from the past.
He takes a deep and long breath as the corners of his lip curl ups into a small smile.
”Thanks boss. I really needed this talk.”
A faint chuckle escapes his lips as he felt relief letting all these feelings out. He was glad that the person who listened to his dream was his boss as she is the only person who will never judge him and understood him the most.
”You're always the one to help me get back on my feet.”
Yue Ling smiles at his words. She glance at him in the rearview mirror then turn to look at the empty seat next to her. No one was sitting there, but there was a bag that had been put there before they left De L'amour.
”If you ever need someone to talk to again, I am here. Not as your boss, but as your friend.”
She knows that he often confines in Yuanyuan, but she also knows that there are some things he cannot talk to her (Yuanyuan) about. So for that, she is willing to lend him her ears as he to her.
”Thanks. I'm glad to have met you in my life.”
Liu Shan nods his head as he spoke. Everything they spoke about on this car rise will remain inside the car.
He rubs his eyes again and his demeanor quickly changes from her friend to her assistant. It was as if their heart felt conversation never happened.
”We'll be arriving in five minutes.”
