Chapter 639 Cant help but think about her (1/2)

As Lu Tian went ahead and ate the Shredded Ginger Chicken Congee, Yue Ling stepped out of her office. She had already eaten with Qin Xue and Shi Yan so there was no need for her to eat again.

She quietly close the door like the man inside the room was sleeping. Taking a step away, she heads in the direction of Liu Shan's office that was next to her.

”Oh, you're finally done feeding dog food to us single people?”

Liu Shan sat behind his desk. He didn't need to turn around as he could hear her footsteps. However, when he was sure that she was inside the room, he spins around on his swivel chair and locks gaze with her.

”Eh? You're alone? Where's Lu Tian?”

”He's eating in my office.”

Yue Ling answers without the need to think. She walks over to stand near his desk and her eyes subconsciously glance at her assistant's computer screen.

There was a listing of vacant housings and apartments. Some looked extravagant while others looked decent.

”You're looking for a new place?”

Liu Shan's face blush red at her words. He wanted to slap himself across the face for forgetting to close out the website. He didn't want her knowing about this because she will not hesitate to help him.

However, knowing that she already saw, he slumps down into his chair and nods his head.

”Mm. I don't want to, but I've been feeling like shit these past few days.”

He turns away from her and looks back at the computer screen. His eyes skim over the many listings as his usual carefree expression replace with one full of pain.

”They say time will heal, but every day when I go back home, I can't help but think about her…”

One corner of his mouth curls up faintly and he sighs in self-pity.

”Did she have a good night's rest? Has she eaten yet? How is she doing? What is she doing?”

He sounds a chuckle that held sarcasm behind it, but one can still hear the heartache behind it.

”I'm pathetic, aren't I? She stepped on my heart out and yet, I still think about her.”

The back of his chair stood facing Yue Ling, but she could see the top back of his head. Even without seeing the expression on his face, she could guess what kind of face he was making.

She sighs inside and walks over to him. With to his desk being in a L shape, she leans against the side where there was nothing on top.

”Love is patient, love is kind, it holds an amount of pain, but it is nothing but a word.”

She stares at the side of his face and slowly reach an arm out to him. Her hand looked like she's going to caress his head, but instead, she flick his head with a small amount of strength.

”No assistant of mine is pathetic, let alone a friend.”

Suddenly being flicked on the side of his head, Liu Shan, as dramatic as he is, flung his head in the direction she had hit him. He kept his head hanging at the side for a long second before giving her a side glare.

However, thinking about her words, he sits up and massage his forehead.

”You're right. Love is just a word full of different meanings.”

Slightly lowering his hand, he pinch the space between his brows and sighs depressingly.

”I really need to get over Ling Ni. I'm sure she has already moved on.”
