Chapter 665 Mad Reaper (1/2)
Outside in the hallway, Yue Ling walks away from the conference room and head for the elevators. She wasn't worried about her design team still being inside the room as she knows they will not neglect their work.
As she nears the metal box, the door slides open and a very familiar figure rushes out.
It was her assistant.
”Am I too late? Did I miss the meeting?”
Liu Shan darts out from the elevator but comes to a screeching stop when he realizes someone was in front of him and of all people, that someone just has to be his boss.
His breathing was in a mess, but he stares at her and wipes away the sweat that had gather on his forehead.
”Boss, why are you here and not in the conference room?”
Yue Ling stares back at the disheveled man. She glances down at his outfit and the corners of her lips curls up.
”Well, aren't you feeling bright today?”
He was wearing an oversized green sweater with baggy gray plaid pants that looked like pajama pants. On his feet were a pair of bright yellow sneakers and he even had on a white beanie to hide his hair.
However, brushing his outfit aside, she shrugs her shoulder at his question and enters the elevator behind him.
”The meeting just ended.”
Liu Shan was struck speechless at her answer. His feet were rooted to the floor but seeing that the elevator doors were closing, he jumps in before they closed.
”Sorry, I didn't mean to be late. I was stuck in traffic.”
His excuse sounded reasonable, but Yue Ling already knew why he was late. Before she attended the meeting, she had received a message from Yuanyuan explaining the situation.
She doesn't what made Liu Shan suddenly get so drunk, but she trusts he must have his reason.
Slightly turning her head to look at him, she couldn't help but chuckle at his clothes.
”I'm guessing what you have on is another new trend?”
Liu Shan was relieved that she didn't further question his tardiness. However, seeing her laugh at his outfit, he pursed his lip with flush cheeks.
”Just so you know, it is a new trend. It's called shining as bright as Liu Shan can possibly be.”
He spoke these words with a face full of confidence, but deep down, he was crying with never-ending tears.
After he ran out of Yuanyuan's house, he had wanted to go home and change. However, when he checked his location on his phone map, he found out that his place was on the opposite side.
Not only that, but De L'amour was also right in the middle of his and Yuanyuan's house. If he were to go home, he would be even more late to work.
So left with no other choice, he could only grab whatever he had in his trunk. Luckily, everything he had wasn't as bad as that time when he had to watch Inu. The only sad part was, what he has on is what he usually wears to sleep.
As for the beanie, he needed to wear it because his hair is in a mess and he didn't have any hair products in his car.
Arriving on the highest floor, the boss and assistant exit the elevator. Yue Ling walks ahead and summarizes the meeting to Liu Shan.
”The list has been sorted out. As for the textile company we are going to work with, I decided on Cloth Co.”
Liu Shan arches a brow at her last words. He watches her enter the room on the right where some of their designs are hung on black fixtures and follows in.
”Why Cloth Co.? Can we trust their mysterious owner?”
Yue Ling shrugs a shoulder and walks over to a fixture. She picks a white button-up shirt with blue strips and passes it to Liu Shan.
”The more mysterious the owner is, the more interesting the collaboration will be.”
Her answer fell in a carefree tone and she grabs a black pant and a pair of tan oxfords. She hands them to Liu Shan and walks out of the room.
