Unexpected Second Chance at Love-Chapter 885 - To Discuss The Acquired Goods

Chapter 885 - To Discuss The Acquired Goods

The windows and walls of De L'amour block the pouring rain from the employees as each person starts off their daily tasks. Yue Ling made a quick stop in her office and then looked over each design set to be released.

"These looks good."

She held a tablet in her hands and scrolls through the work of one of her employees. Once she confirmed what she wanted to see, she placed the tablet back down on the desk.

"Have it sent to Lian Ni Shang. She will have it translated into proper blueprints and design models."

"CEO Han."

Just when her last word fell, a woman's voice calls out to her from behind. She turns around to the door and sees her secretary.

"Can I help you, Secretary Jiang?"

Jiang Shengyi smiles with a stack of documents in her hands. She takes out the one at the top and hands it to Yue Ling.

"Cloth Co. has received the design book and has accepted the designs we've sent to them. They want you to take a look before proceeding with the next step."

Hearing her secretary's words, Yue Ling bids an excellent day to her employee and walks to the woman. She takes the document and walks out of the room.

She scans through the pages, and when she gets to the signature, a small smile curls on her face.

It was Madam Lu who had signed it.

She looks at Jiang Shengyi and hands her back the document.

"Is this all?"

"As of now, yes."

Jiang Shengyi answered, and Yue Ling looked away. She heads toward the elevator and stops in front of it, then presses the button to go up.

"Everything here is under control. I'll be visiting An Qing."

At the mention of An Qing, Jiang Shengyi is taken aback. She didn't think that Yue Ling would be visiting the company so soon.

Yue Ling didn't need to look at the woman to understand what she was thinking. The elevator doors open, and she steps inside.

"Assistant Liu will be going with me. You can stay here and see to the work here."

Jiang Shengyi almost stumbled in her step when she heard the assistant was going. However, she was able to steady herself quickly.

She had hoped that Yue Ling would take her. She wanted to see the work-life in An Qing now that all the negligent employees have been dismissed. However, knowing she could not go against her superior's words, she could only comply.

"I will notify you if anything is amiss here."

The two women rode the elevator together until they arrived at the top floor. Yue Ling headed to her office while Jiang Shengyi went to her desk.

"Oh, boss. I was just looking for you."

Liu Shan called out when he saw Yue Ling open the door to her office. He grabs his work tablet and strides with significant steps just in time to enter the room after her.

He thought she was going to take a seat behind her desk but arched one eyebrow when he saw her putting on her coat.

"Are you going somewhere?"

Yue Ling didn't answer with words but a nod. She picks up her work bag and walks past her assistant.

"We can talk on the way to An Qing."

Hearing this, Liu Shan was at a loss for words. He looks down at the tablet in his hand then back at his boss.

"…but I have work to do here…."

He murmured to himself, but Yue Ling heard him loud and clear. She stops at the door and looks back at him.

"If you're busy, I can have Qi Li go with me."

"What? No, no, no."

Liu Shan returns from his thoughts and makes his way after her. He doesn't wait for her to leave the room first and walks out.

"I am your assistant. How can you ask an illustrator to take my job? Hmmf."

He couldn't believe his ears at all. He understood if it was Jiang Shengyi since she is a secretary, but to pick Qi Li? How dare she (Yue Ling) do this to him.

Watching him stride away, Yue Ling shook her head and sighed inside. She knows that there is a lot to do here, but the only way to get him to go with her is to mention someone he rivals with when it comes to getting the job done.

And that person is Qi Li.

Of course, Lin Hui is Liu Shan's true rival, but the man (Lin Hui) doesn't work in De L'amour.

As the boss and assistant leave for An Qing, Lu Tian finishes the morning meeting at Lu Corps. He enters his office with Xu Long following behind him.

"How is it going?"

His deep voice sounds as he sits down on his chair, and Xu Long blinks his eyes in puzzlement. He (Xu Long) stares at his boss for a long second before finally understanding the sudden question.

"Oh, it's going good. I woke up early this morning to make breakfast, but then I forgot to eat it."

"…"

Lu Tian's eyelids grew heavy at the response. He heaves a long sigh and reminds himself that his assistant has a low EQ.

"I'm referring to the task I gave you."

Sometimes he can't help but wonder how Xu Long passed the interview to be his assistant.

Xu Long's cheeks turned pink when he heard his boss's words of correction. He clears his throat at the awkwardness and forces out a sarcastic chuckle.

"Oh.. heh heh. I knew you were referring to that."

He clears his throat again, and thinking about the task he was assigned, he smiles a smile that reaches his eyes.

"It's going as planned. I've already got in contact with the assistant. We'll be meeting for lunch to discuss the acquired goods."

Lu Tian didn't know whether to laugh or cry at his assistant. If anyone else had heard their conversation, they would have mistaken them as drug dealers having a conversation.

He shakes his head, turns his computer on, and then reaches for the first stack of documents piled up on his desk.

"Make sure not to reveal the plan. You can leave."

Xu Long's smile never left his face but grew wider until it revealed his teeth. He straightens his posture and raises his right hand to gesture a salute like a soldier.

"Don't worry, boss. I will see to it that the plan is my lifelong goal."

He lowered his hand and spun around to leave the room.

Lu Tian watched as the man disappeared out of the room and shook his head with a sigh. He leans back on his hair and pinches the space between his eyebrows.

He can't help but wonder if he had assigned the task to the right person.

However, pushing the thought aside, he leans back in his chair.

He tilts his head back and slightly turns to look at the windows surrounding his office. The rain stained the glass, and it would slide down every so often.

"I hope the rain doesn't ruin the plan…."

He gradually closes his eyes like he is going to sleep, but inhaling a deep breath, he opens them. He sits up and focuses his attention on his work.

Before he can proceed with his plan, he must make sure that work doesn't get in the way.
