Chapter 887 - Get An Autograph (1/2)

Unaware of her younger brother's troubles at school, Yue Ling sat in the back seat of Liu Shan's car. She scrolls through the tablet in her hand with her mind occupied with work.

Liu Shan glanced at the rearview mirror and hesitated a few seconds. He looks back at the road ahead then inhales a deep breath.

”Boss, I received an e-mail from Blush Tree.”

Yue Ling's hand on the tablet's screen pauses then continues without looking up.

”What happened?”

Hearing the question, Liu Shan wanted to cry but lacked the tears to shed. He inhales another breath to calm his mind before answering.

”Ji Chu Hua took your dress for your engagement party.”

Yue Ling stopped what she was doing and placed the tablet down on her lap. A dangerous glint of light flashed across her bluish-green eyes, and she smirked.

”Interesting.”

She had been wondering why her cousin had been so quiet lately. It appears the woman was up to this.

Liu Shan could see her expression from the rearview mirror, and he couldn't help but shiver a hard gulp. He knows that his boss is scary when her line has been crossed, but the situation is now different.

That smile on her face meant someone's fate was sealed.

”B-Boss… do you want me to take care of it?”

Yue Ling glance at the mirror that reflects her assistant's face. She lightly shakes her head and picks up the tablet.

”I'll take care of it. You just focus on your work.”

She crosses her right leg over her left leg. Her gesture shows that she does not want to dwell on the topic anymore.

Liu Shan sighed inside, and his thoughts were all over the place. However, considering the fact that Ji Chu Hua dares to do something ridiculous such as steal his boss's engagement dress, he doesn't feel any sympathy for the woman.

Ji Chu Hua deserves whatever punishment comes her way.

Oblivious to her assistant's thoughts, Yue Ling holds the tablet in her hand but lifts her head to look out the window.

She stares at the rain that doesn't seem to stop anytime soon.

”Boss, we're here.”

The car soon slows to a stop in front of An Qing, and Liu Shan announces their arrival. He steps out to help her out from the back seat.

Yue Ling's view changed from the passing buildings to the building belonging to herself. She cleared her mind of all unnecessary troubles and stepped out of the car when the door opened.

”CEO Han.”

Liu Yilong greeted her. The elderly man smiles at her and gestures a polite bow in respect.

”It's wonderful to have you come here despite your busy schedule at De L'amour.”

Yue Ling gives the elderly man a nod and heads in the direction of An Qing while Liu Shan leaves to park the car in the underground parking garage.

”I trust that everything here is good.”

A chuckle sounded from Liu Yilong as he walked shoulder to shoulder with Yue Ling. He was surprised to see her hear about her sudden arrival, considering the situation that happened. However, he was glad to know that she was still the same.

She never allowed her busy schedule to stop her from doing anything.

”Everything here has been taken care of, and we've rid all the snakes.”

As the two reach the double glass doors, he reaches for the door handle and holds it open for her.

”Regarding the branch locations, what do you plan to do?”

Yue Ling smiles thankfully at the elderly man and enters the building. However, she doesn't forget to answer the question.

”It's being taken care of by De L'amour's design team.”

Liu Yilong was surprised by her answer. He thought Yue Ling would send someone from An Qing to handle the branch locations, but he didn't know what to consider to hear that the task was given to her design team.

As someone who used to be with Fate, he knew each person well. After all, if the people in question weren't posing as De L'amour's design team, they were Fate's notorious Alpha Team.

However, he couldn't help but smile when thinking about the seven people. He met Qi Li when he came to An Qing with Yue Ling, but he hasn't seen the others.

Are they all doing well? What about Lin Hui?

Yue Ling stops in the lobby to wait for Liu Shan. When she sees the elderly man's smile, she smiles with him.

”Don't worry. They're doing well, and they won't stir any trouble.”

Hearing this, Liu Yilong was relieved. He was worried because he wasn't sure if sending deadly people to handle business affairs would be safe for Yue Ling and the companies she worked so hard on.

He nodded his head in understanding and held his hands behind his back.

”That's good to hear. Just remember that you still have us at An Qing. If you need us, we will be at your call.”

Yue Ling was genuinely thankful for her employees at An Qing, especially those who used to be a part of Fate.

Despite leaving Fate to live a decent life, they still treated her the same.

However, the more she looks at Liu Yilong, the more she feels regretful.

He had long passed the age for retirement, yet he chose to remain in An Qing to help her. She would ask him to stop working and spend time with his family without any worry if she could persuade him.

Liu Yilong knew what Yue Ling was thinking and reassured her at a glance.

”You don't need to consider this old man's feelings. As long as I am still standing, I will always work. Even if it wasn't here.”
