Chapter 948 What if she goes after them?
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
After leaving the design room, Yue Ling left for her office. Before she could reach her office, she saw Jiang Shengyi sitting at her desk."Secretary Jiang."
Upon hearing her voice, Jiang Shengyi looks up from behind her monitor. When she spotted her boss walking towards her, she stood up and gestured a polite bow.
"Good morning, CEO Han. Is there anything I can assist you with?"
Yue Ling was glad to have found a capable and sincere secretary, unlike her last one. She knew that Jiang Shengyi would not betray her.
She stops in front of her secretary's desk and smiles.
"Book 2 first-class flights to City Z for Lian Ni Shang and Shan Sinan."
Jiang Shengyi doesn't question the order and nods her head. She sits back down on the chair and gets right to work.
"Is there a specific date I should book the flights?"
"The sooner the better."
Yue Ling answers in a calm voice and heads for her office. She knows what to do if there are any more questions.
She enters her office and places her work bag down before removing her coat. The second she hung it on the nearby rack, the door to her office flung open with immense wind.
"Boss! Boss! Have you seen the news?!!"
Liu Shan frantically enters the room. He wore all black with a grey marble wool coat. His usual appearance was dignified and collected, but not at this moment.
A huge smile plastered on his face as he held his arm out with his phone.
"You will never believe what I just saw!"
He stops in front of his boss, indicating for her to take the phone. Unable to hold himself back, he covers his mouth with his freehand and snickers like a little old grandma.
"I'm serious. I thought I was seeing things."
Yue Ling stares at her assistant without batting an eye. She doesn't look at the phone but walks to her desk.
"Sophia already showed me."
She pulls her chair back before taking a seat. As she did this, she glanced at him, and the smile on his face was replaced with confusion.
Like he was curious about something involving the news.
Others might not be able to read him, but she could.
She looks away and turns on her computer.
"It was Alpha Team that did it."
At the mention of Fate's Alpha Team, Liu Shan's jaw dropped to the floor. He was flabbergasted by such a response from his boss.
"Y-You mean…"
He stares at his boss. He wanted to see her expression if she was lying to him. However, unable to catch any traces of lies on her face, his hand holding the phone drops to his side.
His eyes move left and right like he is in disbelief.
"T-this…"
He stutters one word but doesn't say anymore. It was only after a long minute had gone by that he came back to his senses.
His fingers wrapped around his phone tightened, and he pressed his lips together.
"How dare they…"
His grip intensified, causing his entire body to tremble like a madman.
"Those bastards. I thought I was their friend. How dare they not include me in this?!"
How can he not be furious with them?
He had shed blood and tears with them for so many years. If they were planning to humiliate Ji Chu Hua, he wanted to be a part of it, too.
How dare they remove their identity as the design team and put on their identity as Alpha team without him?!
Yue Ling had already started her work. She didn't need to look at her assistant to know what was happening in his mind.
However, not wanting to waste the little time she had with work, she looked at him.
"Is there anything else?"
Liu Shan came back from his thoughts. His body stops shaking, and he takes a deep breath like he is meditating to ease his mind.
"What are you going to do? What if that wench decides to retaliate?"
He has been by Yue Ling's side for many years and has all the records of Ji Chu Hua. The woman may appear friendly and caring on the surface, but behind that facade, she is a woman with a disgusting heart.
Ji Chu Hua only got to where she is today because of her background as part of the Ji family. Without the Ji family, she was nothing.
For that reason, many people have been taken care of for crossing her line.
Yue Ling looks away from her assistant and shrugs her shoulder. Her expression held no emotions but indifference.
"If she wants to retaliate, she can go ahead. I'll happily welcome her retaliation."
Liu Shan wasn't worried about his boss. He knew she could take care of herself, but he pursed his lips, thinking about something.
"What about Alpha Team? What if she goes after them?"
Unlike his boss, everyone from Alpha Team didn't come from a prominent background. If Ji Chu Hua wants to fabricate a crime to ruin them, the evil woman really can.
Yue Ling was typing on the keyboard when she heard her assistant. Her hands stopped, and she looked at him.
"And you think I will let her?"
Her response was like a slap back to reality for Liu Shan. He couldn't even believe that he was thinking about what would happen to Alpha team if Ji Chu Hua went after them.
Ji Chu Hua may be an evil woman, but his boss is a devil woman.
Once she takes someone under her wing, they have her backing.
He lets out a sigh and nods his head to let her know that he understands her.
"I'll keep tabs on that woman's movements. If she does anything suspicious, I'll inform you right away."
His words fell, and he excused himself. He needed to settle a score with some people.
Yue Ling watched her assistant leave, and she lightly shook her head. She knew him like the back of her hand and knew where he was going.
Her design team was going to get an earful from him.
She shifts her gaze back to the monitor in front of her, and her fingers dance over the keyboard again. She needed to send an email to Kang In-sung about Lian Ni Shang and Shan Sinan's visit.
As Yue Ling began her work, Lu Tian was no different back at her house.
The aloof man continued his search for both Choi Li Sun and the other person looking for him (Choi Li Sun).
Since Choi Li Sun arrived at Imperial, he has been living off the grid, leaving no paper trail. No surveillance captures the man.
Choi Li Sun was a man who would sacrifice a pawn to secure the big picture. So long as he is safe, he will stop at nothing. Despite his ruthless and corrupted ways, many people, even law enforcement, would bend their backs to him.
However, things just got tougher now that another force was looking for the man.
*Vrr vrr
Before his thoughts could trail too far, the sound of his phone vibrates on the desk.
The name on the caller ID was Xu Long.
He answers the call and places the phone next to his ear.
"Report."
["Boss, they're awake."]
From the other line came Xu Long's horsed voice. The assistant sounded like he had not slept all night.
Lu Tian responded with a faint ''mm' and ended the call. He looks at the monitor screen for a brief second, then at his wife's empty desk.
No one knew what he was thinking at this very moment as he turned away.
He grabs his coat before leaving the house he shares with his wife.
