Chapter 745 For the bes (2/2)

Qin Jun was the first to answer. He reaches inside his pocket and takes out a cigarette to smoke as he needed to calm his mind.

He knows that the assistant has every right to say what he said. They had bid Yue Ling farewell with her thinking they understood her reason for moving. However, behind all the smiles they showed her that day, it was nothing but a façade.

The second she left City Z, every one of them, excluding Hana and little Shin, decided to cut ties with her.

They thought that by doing so, it was the only way she could find happiness and live an ordinary life. If they disappear from her world, she will be able to move on from anything that tied her back to Shin.

However, the idea was harder said than done.

Not a day goes by that any of them didn't think about her. There were days he would pick up his phone and wanted to call her, but he could only force himself back.

As no one said another word, Liu Shan sneers a soft chuckle at them. He knew why they never contacted his boss and so did she. However, did they not stop to think if it was fair for her?

He scans the people in the room, and his eyes dimmed a shade darker.

Yue Ling had already lost so many people in her life. To her, the people standing in this room were like family to her. She made the decision to move to Imperial was to be with her yeye and Ji Jingxu. Yet, this so-called family of hers did not try to understand and decided to disappear from her life.

”Now I see why she never once bothered to ask me how any of you are doing.”

His sharp words sent another wave of suffocation into the hearts of the three men. He sighs deeply and his words continue.

”Then again, she might have not asked me, but I can see it in her eyes that she still thinks about you all from time to time.”

He averts his gaze from Qin Jun and slightly turns his head to the left at Song Jing Li.

”Especially Shin.”

As Yue Ling's assistant and her closest subordinate, he might not be able to read her mind ninety-five percent of the time, but during the other five percent, he could.

And he was able to distinguish how hurt she must have been when she realized that these three men didn't want to be apart of her life anymore.

He brushes these thoughts and feelings aside as he didn't feel like staying anymore. He had done what he came here to do. However, as he turned away, he sees the dejected look on each person.

His eyes slowly flutter, and he proceeds to the door to leave the place. He reaches for the doorknob and without looking back at them, he parts his lips.

”Li Wei.”

All three men abruptly look in his direction, but before anyone could say a word, Liu Shan had already disappeared out the door.

Each person held a confused expression, but in the next second, they understood the meaning of why the name was given to them.

Qin Jun looks at Kira and his head nods once to give a silent order as the long-haired man strides over to his computer station.

However, unlike them, Song Jing Li walks over to a window near the door Liu Shan had exited and he stares out to the red car.

Oblivious and not caring about what the three men inside were doing, Liu Shan sat in his car and did not hesitate to drive away from the building.

He steals a glance at the rearview mirror and sees the silhouette of Song Jing Li by the window. His lower lip purse and he mumbles to himself with a faint feeling of guilt inside.

”Was I too hard on them?”
