Chapter 314 - Return to Offices (1/2)
As their honeymoon vacation has ended, both Li Qin Yao and Zhang Yu Han had to return to their offices and facing the pile of documents on their table. When Li Qin Yao walked into the office, she was glad upon knowing that the first phase of the construction was back to their schedule. However, seeing the documents that she had to read and sign, Li Qin Yao suddenly had the urge to cry.
At this time, Li Qin Yao could not help but think of how leisure managing the small cafe instead of looking after a big project as this construction site. However, Li Qin Yao loved the sense of accomplishment upon seeing the once abandoned site has changed and the buildings were getting taller.
Liang Sheng stayed by her side as they attended a meeting with the staff and ȧssisted her to understand what was going on when she was away. The meeting just before lunch and Li Qin Yao turned to Liang Sheng as he helped her to review a few documents.
”Did you just come back from Capital City?” Li Qin Yao asked upon seeing the slight black rim under her ȧssistant's eyes.
Liang Sheng nodded. ”Yes. I went to see Chairman Li and gave my report on the construction.”
Because Liang Sheng was the ȧssistant that her grandfather had chosen to help her, once every week, Liang Sheng would travel to Capital City and reported on the progress.
Although Chairman Li live far away from B City, he cared so much about this project. After all, it was the first project for QL Group which was outside of Capital City. With Liang Sheng, his ȧssistant's son by his granddaughter's side, Li Ren Xin was more at ease to let his granddaughter manage the development project.
”How was my grandfather?”
Liang Sheng smile. ”Chairman Li and his wife were doing well. They heard that you and Director Zhang had come back from your honeymoon last Friday and was relieved that you have returned safely.”
Li Qin Yao nodded. She turned her attention back at the documents on the table and made a reminder to herself to give her grandparents a call later. When she looked up again, she did not miss the hesitant look on Liang Sheng's face. ”What is it?”
”No,” Liang Sheng shook his head. ”Just that… when I went to Li's residence, I found out that Miss Li Mu Chen is now living with your grandparents. I heard from Auntie Han that Miss Li wanted to spend more time to accompany elder madam,” Liang Sheng said.
A frown appeared on his face as he recalled the encounter with Li Mu Chen. Previously, he had run into Li Mu Chen a few times and would always leave after nodding politely at her. However, this time, Liang Sheng could not help but feel a bit uneasy with the way Li Mu Chen would act around him.
He might be a bit paranoid, but he did not like the way Li Mu Chen seemed to be keeping her eyes on him when he was around the Li's residence.
As Li Qin Yao's ȧssistant, Liang Sheng knew that Li Mu Chen had previously tried to do to harm his boss and he was wary of Li Mu Chen.
”How did my grandparents react?” Li Qin Yao asked.
”I heard that President Li was against this decision,” Liang Sheng said. ”However, Chairman Li had thought that it would be best to let Miss Li Mu Chen live with them. Chairman Li intended to keep his eyes on her lest she'll make trouble.”
Li Qin Yao tapped the pen in her hand against the table and heaved a long sigh. ”If Chairman Li thinks it would be best, then just let it be.”
The truth was that Li Qin Yao did not care much about what her cousin, Li Mu Chen wanted to do. As long as she stayed away from her and no longer cause trouble for her, Li Qin Yao would be happy. She had never understood Li Mu Chen's animosity towards her from the very beginning. Li Qin Yao could only think that Zhao Wei had probably said something just because she wanted her son to achieve the top position in QL Group.
