Chapter 354 - Are You in Trouble? (2/2)

The change in Liang Sheng was subtle, but it was still noticeable, especially since Li Qin Yao spent most of her time with him.

The bespectacled man was someone who always had a smile on his face from the first day she had met him. But recently, Li Qin Yao often found him in a daze, especially right after he returned from Capital City to visit her grandfather.

Because Liang Sheng often had this expression after he came back from Capital City, Li Qin Yao had a suspicion that something was happening to him during his visit to the city. Of course, she would first suspect that something was going on with his family.

However, during her last phone call with her grandfather, Li Qin Yao found out that he was not having trouble with his work or his family.

After the meeting ended, Li Qin Yao sat on the chair as she watched her staff walked out to return to their job. Her gaze shifted to Liang Sheng who was staring at the documents on the table in a daze.

Li Qin Yao tapped her fingers on the table softly as she continued to watch her ȧssistant. Ten seconds have passed, and the bespectacled man did not look up as if he did not notice her gaze. A frown appeared on her face as she wondered what was on the man's mind. She rapped her knuckles on the table and Liang Sheng turned to her, startled.

”What's wrong?” Liang Sheng spoke with a hint of panic in his voice. He turned to look around the room and was relieved upon finding that he was in the office. Seconds later, his gaze changed again, and Liang Sheng turned to Li Qin Yao with a hint of guilt on his expression.

”Liang Sheng, tell me, are you in trouble?”

Liang Sheng shook his head. ”No. Why do you ask me this?”

Li Qin Yao stared at the man for a few seconds longer. ”Liang Sheng, you haven't been yourself. Although it did not affect your work, I still find it uneasy that you often stare into space.”

Liang Sheng seemed flustered upon hearing her words, but he recovered quickly. ”I'm sorry. I will pay attention while I am in the office.”

”That is not what I meant,” Li Qin Yao said. ”Liang Sheng, you are my right-hand man. When you are not yourself, of course, I will worry about you. If you encountered any problem that you cannot solve, you can come and talk to me.”

Liang Sheng stared back at his boss and took a deep breath. ”Thank you for your concern. But at this time, I think I can manage.”

Li Qin Yao let out a sigh upon hearing his answer.

”Of course, if I cannot find a suitable solution to this problem, I will come and talk to you.”

Her lips tilted into a smile. Li Qin Yao nodded and watched as Liang Sheng gathered his stuff and walked out of the room. She then leaned on her chair and rested a hand on her stomach, ċȧrėssing it slowly.

Li Qin Yao touched her face and pouted when she recalled that Zhang Yu Han had this habit to pinch her cheeks recently.

At this time, someone knocked at the door. Li Qin Yao turned around to see that it was Xiao Lian Yi.

”Boss, someone is here to look for you,” Xiao Lian Yi said.

”Who is it?”

Xiao Lian Yi gave a mysterious smile and spoke, ”You will know when you come out.”
