Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 675 Would you like to have the honor



Chapter 675 Would you like to have the honor

Yue Ling returned to De L'amour like she had never left to pay An Qing a visit. She steps out of the car and makes her way towards the front entrance.

As for the six people she had left behind in An Qing, she didn't need to worry about them.

When she and her team left, the security guards had arrived to the scene and she explained the situation to them. Some would find it strange that she would place her trust on An Qing's security guard, but one should know that they are her own people. The few that she had ordered to be her eyes inside An Qing.

"Um, boss wait."

Yue Ling had only entered through the doors when she was stopped by Gui Zhongmin. She pauses in her steps and turns around to look at her stylist.

"What is it?"

Her voice sounded in a calm tone, but the moment she fully turned around, she was astonished at the scene in front of her.

It wasn't only Gui Zhongmin who was looking at her, but also the six other members of her design team.

Her eyes blink a few times before she takes note of each person's expression. For some odd reason, she felt they looked nervous.

"Is everything alright? Why do you all look like that?"

She slightly pouts her lips and crosses her arms over her chest. Her pouting lips return to normal and a nonchalant look appears on her like she was saying, 'well?'.

Gui Zhongmin couldn't help but struggle a hard and difficult gulp when he saw the look on her face. He swore, he should have been used to this side of her now, but even after so many years, he felt like she is still the same person from the underworld.

He opens and closes his mouth wanting to explain, but unable to voice anything, he takes two big steps back and slowly moves to hide behind his older twin brother.

"Bro, you're older. You tell her."

Gui Tian Lan was dumbstruck by his twin. He may be older, but how can his brother not know that as twins they can feel what the other person is feeling.

Like Gui Zhongmin, he was also nervous and didn't know how to ask Yue Ling.

He chuckles sarcastically at his boss then slowly turns his head to the left.

"Psss, you tell—"

He wanted to give the honor to the person on his left, but when he saw who was standing next to him, he was even more dumbfounded.

Out of all the people here, why did it have to be the man with no emotions?

Qi Li was as cold as ever. His eyes remained on his boss, but he could see Gui Tian Lan from the corner of his eyes. He heaves a sigh and the look on his face flat out says, 'Don't look at me. You guys were the one who dragged me into this.'

Knowing that pleading will not work on the cold face man, Gui Tian Lan stuck his tongue out like a child. He then flung his head around to his right and seeing who it was, his eyes lit up.

He clasps both his palms together like he was begging and his glistening eyes flutter.

"Lian Ni Shang, would you like to have the honor to say it?"

Hearing him, Lian Ni Shang glance at the tailor. She usually maintains a straight face without a care, but the moment she saw Gui Tian Lan's face, it was like the glass shielding her face suddenly shattered and her brows crease in aversion.

She swore, if she were not careful, she would have gone blind from Gui Tian Lan. Did he actually think he looked cute right now? Instead of cute, he looked more like he was constipated.

However, understanding why the two idiotic twins were so nervous, she decides to help. If she doesn't, their boss will see through their plans.

"Boss, we were wondering if we could also have the remaining day off."

Her words fell as the others, excluding Qi Li, nods their head in agreement. As much as they love their job, only for today, will they have the courage to ask to leave early.

Yue Ling stares at each person from her design team. She didn't need to think much and shrug one shoulder as she turns away from them.

"I'll see you all tomorrow."

She walks over to the receptionist's desk and smiles at Sophia.

"Let everyone know, if they are finished for the day, they can go home early."

Without staying to chat, she heads for the elevators. There are still 2 hours left before everyone clocks out, but she didn't find it wrong to let her workers off early. After all, before she left for An Qing, she had taken a look at the schedule and there wasn't much to do.

As she enters the elevator, Sophia stood up from her desk and runs after Yue Ling.

"Boss, wait! I forgot to tell you—"

"No, no, no."

Before Sophia could finish her words, she was interrupted by Ju Suo's petite figure. She (Ju Suo) lifts one hand and presses her pointer finger on her lips in a gesture for the receptionist to quiet.

However, her eyes were wide and glaring viciously at the young woman like she wanted to stranger her (Sophia).

"Shh. Are you trying to ruin everything?"

Sophia quickly covers her mouth with both of her hands. She stares at all seven members of the design team and she wanted to cry. How could she be so brainless? Good thing Ju Suo was quick and stopped her from spilling the beans.

Arriving at the highest floor of the building, Yue Ling was oblivious to the situation that unfolded on the first floor. She heads in the direction of her office but thought back to her design team.

One glance was all it took. However, like how they trust her, she also trusts them and decided to pretend like she doesn't know that they were up to something.

Brushing this thought away, she plans out what to do when she leaves work. Inu has been staying with Grandfather Ji and Ji Jingxu for a while now, so she should go pick up the little guy.

As she nears her office, a frown appears on her face, and her pace slows down. She stares at the door leading to her office and alertness fills the air around her.

Before she left for An Qing, she clearly made sure her office was locked. Why would it be ajar?

She creeps closer to the door with exceptionally light footsteps. Like a detective investigating a crime, she slowly, but carefully reach out her hand to gently push the door open.

The moment the door opened enough to see inside, her cautious expression was replaced with surprise.

"What are you doing here?"
