Chapter 360 Man up
"Ahh—!!! Let me go!! I am Chen Limei, CEO of An Qing! How dare you do this to me! Let me go!!!"
Stepping out of the elevator, Chen Limei's scream echoes inside the lobby as the two security guards drag her struggling figure out. The sudden scene caught the attention of the employees who had to come in for work.
"Isn't that CEO Chen? What happened? Why are the security guards dragging her out?"
"Does this have something to do with her loss last night?"
"Did she commit a crime?"
Whispers between the gathering employees quickly surface inside An Qing. Not only their whispers, but also the sound of their phones unlocking to capture a photo and record the scene.
Reaching outside the building, Yue Ling and her group walked in the direction of their parked cars. Even though the scream can be heard from where they are, none paid any mind to it.
Stopping in front of Liu Shan's car, she turns around to face the unfamiliar person in her group.
This person was none other than Chen Limei's assistant. However, Yue Ling did not give her the cold shoulder but gave her friendly smile.
"Sorry you had to put up with her all these years, Qinqin."
Qinqin smiles to Yue Ling and she shook her head, "Putting up with her was nothing comparable to the loss of my Yifeng."
Yue Ling smiles to her and takes a few steps toward her. Her arms wraps around the woman and she takes a deep breath.
This woman name Qinqin was Chen Yifeng's girlfriend that no one knew about due to the difference in their family background. Only she and Liu Shan knew of their relationship.
However, when Qinqin heard about Chen Yifen's death, she begged Yue Ling to help her stay by Chen Limei's side to avenge the death of her lover. Even during his funeral, she was not allowed to see him for the last time but could watch from afar.
Thinking of the tragedy that one must face in life when losing someone they love, Yue Ling tightens her arms around Qinqin before slowly pulling away from her.
"What do you plan to do now?"
Qinqin smiles at Yue Ling and turn to look at the people who are loyal to Yue Ling. She is indeed happy to meet such outstanding people since she moved to Imperial. However, she still has one more thing to do.
"Yifeng's first dream was to help you with An Qing, now I'm want to pursue his other dream and travel the world."
Saying this, she looks at Yue Ling and sighs a smile.
"When I return to Imperial, tell me everything that I missed. Even the tiniest things."
"Mm."
Yue Ling nods her head in agreement and watch the woman walk away into the crowd before disappearing from view. Her mind couldn't help but think about the loved ones she lost in her life. Would she have done the same if she knew they were murdered?
Brushing the thought away, she looks at her team and smiles.
"It has been a long week for you all. In return, I will give you one more week off."
She turns her head to the left and chuckles at Lin Hui's exhausted figure.
"You had it worse, so I'll give you two weeks off."
"Thank~! You~! Boss~!"
Lin Hui happily sang his words with a huge grin. He really does need two weeks off. He and Xu Long still needed to plan on how to keep living in Imperial after Jiangyu's warning.
Everyone from the design team stares at Lin Hui with envy. However, none could say a word, after all, Lin Hui had it worse than them. During the fashion show, nothing happened inside, but something did happen outside.
Giving her order, Yue Ling enters Liu Shan's car as he enters the driver seat and drives away.
Until his car was no long in view, Lin Hui turns to his motorcycle in high spirits. He really wants to go home so he can sleep and do nothing for the rest of the day.
"Wait—!"
Suddenly, a childish voice calls out to stop him from leaving. He pout his lip and turn to look at the owner.
"What is it Ju Suo?"
Ju Suo's petite figure runs to catch up to Lin Hui and both her hands held onto the back of his motorcycle. Her round eyes beam brightly at the man.
"Did you meet him? How was he? Is he okay? Is he as handsome as his photos?"
"Meet who?"
Lin Hui furrow his brows hearing her questions. Was he supposed to meet someone? Why didn't anyone tell him?
Seeing the man's confused look, Ju Suo didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Sometimes, Lin Hui can be very smart, but why is it that most of the time, he is such an idiot?!
Shaking her head, she jumps up and flicks the man's forehead.
"I know Liu Shan already told you. So did you meet him?"
Hearing this, Lin Hui was dumbfounded as he finally understood who she was referring to. He looks down at the petite woman and rub his slightly red forehead from her flick.
He wanted to answer her question, but he was suddenly reminded of something and motions a laugh with his mouth closed.
Ju Suo: "…."
However, quickly as the laugh came, Lin Hui quickly changes his expression into a serious one. He reach a hand for his helmet and the other to pat the little woman on the shoulder.
"I did meet him, but a little advice from your big brother here."
He looks at her and stares straight in the eye.
"You might want to man up."
"…."
"Pffft—!!!"
"Ahahahh!!"
From behind, twins Gui Tian Lan and Gui Zhongmin burst into laughter while holding their stomach. Lin Hui is telling Ju Suo to man up? How can the little woman 'man' up when the 'man' she likes hasn't even 'man' up?
Tang Zhonghui, Lian Ni Shang and Shan Sinan shook their heads without a word and turn in the direction of their vehicles.
After the fashion show ended, Lin Hui had sent them all a photo of the womanly Jiangyu, except, only Ju Suo did not receive it.
Staring at his comrades, Qi Li straightens his rimless glasses and walks to his motorcycle. He does not say anything but put his helmet on and drives off in the opposite direction his boss had gone.
