Chapter 691 Im a free spiri (2/2)

Yue Ling sighs a smile. She reaches for a pen and circles one of the names then close the folder.

”Thanks for your reminder.”

She hands the folder over to Liu Shan as he didn't hesitate to take it.

”Neither names will be removed. An Qing will continue to be the main source in support of De L'amour.”

Liu Shan gives her a look asking if she was sure and she shrugs both her shoulders.

”It was my original plan. Nothing will be changed. I'll move my office to An Qing but pay a few visits here.”

Holding the folder in one hand, Liu Shan nods his head in understanding. Seeing that there was no other reason for him to stay, he gestures a polite bow.

”Then I'll take my leave.”

”Shan.”

Just when he was about to turn around, Yue Ling stops him. He looks back at her and gives her a strange look.

”Yes?”

Yue Ling stares back at him for a long minute. She sighs a smile and decides to ask him.

”Not as my assistant, but as my friend, how do you feel about becoming An Qing's COO?”

She is going to be busy with her grandfather's request. So, if she has to trust someone in keeping both De L'amour and An Qing in place, it would be Liu Shan.

It's not that her other subordinates are not fit for the job. Each person in her team is skilled and capable, but Liu Shan is the only one who has more knowledge.

However…

”I'm a free spirit.”

Liu Shan responds without the need to think about her question. He smiles a chuckle when he saw her dumbfounded expression.

”I'm happy for the promotion upgrade, but I prefer to be your assistant. That way I can follow you to many places and help you out.”

His smile grew wider until it reached his eyes.

”Plus, I am not fit for the position. I want to be free like the wind and spread my wings as much as I can.”

Yue Ling had difficulty trying to blink her eyes. She stares at him and didn't know what to think anymore. How does being a COO take away his freedom? Not only that, he doesn't want to be COO but wants to continue being her assistant.

What was she expecting? She knew he would turn down the offer. She only thought she should ask in case he decides to accept.

Staring at his smile, she could only sigh inside. Good thing she said COO. If she had told him she wanted him to be CEO, he would have fainted and maybe threaten to kill himself if she gives the position to him.

However, deep inside, she knows that she can never force him to do anything he doesn't want to do. Not just him, but the same with all of her subordinates.

For now, she will have to continue to be the CEO of De L'amour, An Qing, and H-International. Then when everything is settled with Ji Corps, she will try to think of another plan to handle all four companies together.

Thinking about all the weight on her shoulders, she heaves a sigh and gestures a small wave at Liu Shan.

”Alright, you can leave.”

Liu Shan wanted to ask her why she asked him to be COO. However, being dismissed, he could only tell himself to ask her later.

He turns away and walks out of the room. However, reaching the door, he turns his head to look at her again.

”Secretary Jiang from Fang Fabrics called the other day. She wants to meet you for lunch today.”
