Chapter 153 Where’s your car?
Unexpected Second Chance at Love
ââââ
Yue Ling walks out of the meeting room. She just finished her last meeting about De Lâamourâs winter fashion. Liu Shan didnât attend the meeting because she had asked him to do something for her.
Entering her office, she sits behind her desk and takes out a sketch book and pen. Flipping the pages until she came to a blank page, she starts doodling sketches to add to the new designs in her head.
*ring ring*
She looks at her phone; Lee Hana.
Seeing the name, Yue Ling felt her heart tighten. She still hasnât told anyone from City Z about Lu Tian....
Reaching for her phone, she stood up and walks to her floor to ceiling window. She lower head and she looks at the name. Taking a deep breath, she answers the call.
"Hana."
["Mami!! Do you not miss me at all? How come you havenât called me? Hm? Hm?"]
Hearing the cheerful voice of her best friend, Yue Ling smiles a smile that didnât reach her eyes. She did miss everyone back in City Z. But the reason why she hasnât called, is because she doesnât know how to tell Hana about Lu Tian. She was hoping to say it when she gets the chance to visit, but.... she knows, it was either now or never.
Taking a deep breath again, she steady herself, and spoke the words.
"Hana, if I tell you that Iâm seeing someone, will you hate me?"
["...."]
"Hana?"
["You dare to betray my oppa?!! Hm? If you do, I will not be your friend anymore."]
"..."
["Hahah, I was just kidding."]
"....."
["Hmm.... You know.. I always hoped youâd be my sister-in-law. I hoped that you, me and oppa would be one family..."]
Yue Ling didnât say a word. She didnât know what say to Hana. It was really hard telling her ex-fiancéâs sister that she found someone... someone who made her happy...
From the other line, Hanaâs voice continues...
["I know oppa will want to see you happy. Your smile meant everything to him and he wouldnât want to see you live in grief forever. Neither do I... Mami, if youâre happy, then thatâs all that matters."]
Hearing those thoughtful words, Yue Lingâs heart tightens before it turns soft. It was as if a huge weight had been lifted from her shoulders.
["Itâs been three years since oppa left this world. Itâs time you moved on too. Donât let anything stop you from finding your own happiness. Not me, not Qin Jun or anyone. Your happiness is yours and it counts."]
Yue Lingâs hand on the phone tightens and her lips tremble. She was happy to hear Hanaâs encouraging words. Especially since Hana is Shinâs only family.
"Thank you, Hana."
["So.... tell me, who is this man? How did you two meet? Is he nice to you? Details. Give me the details."]
Yue Lingâs lip curls upward hearing her best friendâs excited voice. Even if they were only talking on the phone, she knows that Hana was genuinely happy for her. She told Hana everything. From her and Lu Tianâs first encounter to their relationship now. She didnât leave anything out. Except the parts about their shameless acts.
However, she still needs to tell her Yeye, Jingxu and the members of FAITH about her and Lu Tianâs relationship. She doesnât know if theyâll react like Hana, but she needs to tell them soon.
As their conversation continue, they laughed and talked about everything thatâs been happening to them.
Outside Yue Lingâs office, Liu Shan stood in front of the door, not daring to go inside. His hand that was in midair about to knock on the door, slowly lowers. He turns around and walks to his office. Sitting down, he takes a deep breath. He had heard everything Yue Ling said. It can only mean, she has told Hana about Lu Tian.
Like a proud father, he smiles. He is happy that his boss found her new happiness. It means the world to him to see his boss happy. Liu Shan knows that behind that smile of Yue Lingâs was nothing but a facade. She didnât want everyone to worry about her, so she hides her sorrow behind her smile.
However, he can see the change ever since she met Lu Tian. The man may be cold and ruthless like the world put him to be, but Liu Shan knows the man is sincere towards Yue Ling.
As his mind continues it thoughts, Yue Lingâs angelic voice suddenly sounds from the door.
"Liu Shan, youâre back already?"
Looking up, he smiles at his beautiful boss, "Mm. I got everything needed."
"Lets go, I want to visit Jingxu and Ting."
"Me too? Whereâs your car?"
"Lu Tian has it."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Currently, at Lu Corps, Han Yue Ling and Lu Tianâs relationship was still the hot topic. It didnât take long before all the men agreed that Lu Corps beauty can only belong to their future lady boss. Qian Li Li was nothing in comparison to Han Yue Ling.
Ever since Qian Li Li was embarrassed, she didnât leave her office at all. She locked herself in, not wanting to show her face.
"Han Yue Ling. Just you wait. I will definitely get rid of you."
She spoke through her gritted teeth. Holding a pen in her hand, she stabs into a printed picture of Yue Ling on her desk.
*knock knock*
"Miss Qian?"
Hearing Mao Wanlinâs voice, Qian Li Li quickly crumbles the picture of Yue Ling and toss it in the trash bin. She smiles and welcomes her assistant.
"Wanlin, What is it?"
Mao Wanlin enters and sets a folder on Qian Li Liâs desk, "These are the blueprints you asked for."
"Mm. Thank you." She pretends to look hesitantly at Mao Wanlin, then asks, "Is the meeting with Zi International still taking place?"
Not thinking much, Mao Wanlin answers, "No, it just ended."
Hearing this, Qian Li Liâs heart leaps excitedly. She nods her head, "Mm. You can leave."
The moment the door to her office closed, she takes out her make up bag and retouch her makeup. After applying her red lipstick, she stands up and walks to the mirror in her office. Fixing her clothes and adding more exposure to her body, she smiles in satisfaction. Without grabbing any documents like usual, she leaves her office.
