Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Exiting Fang Fabrics, Secretary Jiang walked Yue Ling and Liu Shan to their car. When she saw how fast the meeting was, she knew right away that President Fang had screw everything up.

However, she doesn’t blame De L’amour for withdrawing the contract.

As the man’s secretary, she knows that President Fang is a selfish and stubborn man. He only wants everything to be done his way and does let anyone put in their two cents.

Stopping in front of Liu Shan’s car that was already waiting for them, the assistant opens the back door for Yue Ling. However, before getting inside, she turns around to look at Secretary Jiang.

”Thank you for sending us out.”

She reach inside her coat pocket and takes out a black business card. Her hand stretch to Secretary Jiang and a faint smile curls on her lip.

”If the day comes and you decide to leave Fang Fabrics, take this card to De L’amour.”

Secretary Jiang was confused, but she still took the business card. She wanted to ask for more details, but before a word could slip her mouth, Yue Ling had already entered the car. The assistant gave her a goodbye nod then gets inside the driver seat.

As the car drove away from the building, Secretary Fang was still stuck in a daze. Feeling a slight touch of breeze brush against her body, she finally lowers her head to look at the business card.

It was coated in black, with the words De L’amour written in metallic gold script.

Her brows slightly furrow as she didn’t quite understand the meaning behind Yue Ling’s words. Why would a secretary from another company suddenly give her a business card?

However, when her hand subconsciously turn the card around, her jaw slowly drop to the ground. The name on the back was printed in white letters, but it was not the name she was told…

She looks back up in the direction Liu Shan’s car had gone and stares with widen eyes.

What newly appointed secretary of De L’amour? That was actually Han Yue Ling, the CEO of De L’amour and An Qing!

Leaving the parking lot belonging to Fang Fabrics, Liu Shan clicks his tongue disapprovingly inside the car.

”That man is too much. If it weren’t for the fact that he has good materials in his hands, we wouldn’t even consider working with him.”

His nostrils flare like a Spanish bull ready to attack its opponent holding the red flag.

”And the way he was looking at you too! Arggh! I wanted so badly to prod his filthy eyes out. If Lu Tian were to know about this, Fang Fabrics will be wipe out clean!”

Annoyed and frustrated at his own words, he scratch his head then glance at the rearview mirror. However, the second he did this, all the feelings he felt disperse into thin air.

”Boss, how can you be so calm at a time like this? Could it be that you have a plan you did not tell me?”

In the back seat, Yue Ling wasn’t bothered by her assistant’s raging outburst. She casually removes the silver-like wig and wig cap to free her dark long hair that had been tied up.

When she heard his questions, her hand doesn’t stop, but place the wig and wig cap back inside the bag she had taken them from.

”President Fang is not worth the trouble. You should waste your time on him.”

Her head tilts back and she closes her eyes to rest on the seat.

She can understand why Chen Limei kept proposing deals with Fang Fabrics. As someone in the fashion industry, one would only want the best materials. However, she is not Chen Limei.

Her eyes slowly open again and she looks out the window to the passing buildings.

”Fang Fabrics is the first on my spring-cleaning list.”

President Fang may have his connections in getting his hands on those materials, but so does she. Even without him, she can still get the materials she needs.

Not only that, she had purposely set up this meeting to end all involvement with Fang Fabrics. Even if those companies will benefit her own company, as the CEO of both De L’amour and An Qing, she cannot let her employees and work be associated with ill-manner people.

”Boss, if that is your plan, who is next on your list?”

Liu Shan couldn’t help but ask. He was surprise to see how fast the meeting went. When they were leaving, he thought it was unnecessary to even arrive at Fang Fabrics if his boss was going to turn it down. However, now everything made perfect sense.

There was never a meeting to begin with.

Thinking this, he thought back to when they first arrived in Imperial. She had said she was going to clean out the people Chen Limei had involved. However, he is sure she never once mentioned who were on the list.

Yue Ling sits up and takes out her phone from inside her coat pocket. She scrolls through the web as her voice sounds in a calm and casual tone.

”An Qing.”

Setting her elbow on the window, she uses it support the side of her head like a pillow.

”There are still too many of Chen Limei’s people working inside. I cannot let them sabotage the company WE spent so much time building.”

As the owner of An Qing, she should have used the word ’I’, but she chose ’we’ because it wasn’t her alone who worked hard on stabilizing An Qing. There were Liu Shan, Chen Yifeng and the rest of her team.

Chen Limei may have sat in the CEO seat, but that was only in name. She was more like the messenger because at the end of the day, everything still has to go through Yue Ling for approval.

Even though she entered An Qing as a fashion designer, she has her own people working inside and would report back to her.

She could have removed Chen Limei a long time ago, but in Chen Yifeng’s final letter, he asked forgiveness for his younger sister.

Some said she should have just gone on with the plan as Chen Yifeng was dead, but for her, she couldn’t. She believes that even the dead can still see.

After years of letting Chen Limei do whatever she wanted, she (Yue Ling) decided that she had kept her words for long enough which led her to reveal herself.

Yue Ling looks up from her phone and move her hand to support her chin as she looks out the window again.

If only she had seen Chen Limei’s evilness from the beginning. Maybe then, she would have been able to save Chen Yifeng and he would still be here with them. However, she knows that it is too late for regret as she can only do one thing for him now.

”I must get rid of the remaining people that harmed Chen Yifeng.”

Liu Shan was immersed in his own thoughts when he heard her words. He glance at her through the mirror with a determine flash of light in his eyes.

”For Chen Yifeng.”

His words fell and he furrow his brows when he remembers something.

”Boss, why did you give Secretary Jiang your business card?”

Thinking back to it, his boss never gives out her business card to just anyone. When he saw her do so, he was surprised but decided to wait for a right time to ask.

Yue Ling doesn’t answer right away but thought to herself before answering him.

”De L’amour and An Qing will soon merge into one. Since the secretary position is open, I’m offering her the position if she wants to join us.”

Secretary Jiang works for Fang Fabrics, but she can tell that the woman’s potential is not being used to the max. She finds it meaningless to let a person like Secretary Jiang work for someone like President Fang. So with that being the case, why not offer her a position she actually signed up for.

*vr vr vr

The phone in her hand vibrates and she lowers her head to look down. At first, she thought it might be Lu Tian, Grandfather Ji or Ji Jingxu calling her, but unexpectedly it was a massage from an unknown number.

”Shan, once we return to De L’amour, I will be leaving. Can you handle the rest by yourself?”

One corner of Liu Shan’s lip curls up into a seductive, yet mischievous smirk.

”My name is not Liu Shan if I cannot handle anything.”
