Liu Shan stares at Yue Ling and he didn't know what to think at this moment. It was like everything he had learned in life was thrown out and his brain no longer knew anything.
Isn't she supposed to be on leave to recover until Doctor Dong says it is okay for her to come to work?
"W-Why are you here?"
He swore it was like an entire day had gone by before he finally found the correct brain to put inside his head.
"How are you here? Can you even be here? Does Doctor Dong know that you are here? What about Lu Tian? Does HE know that you are here?"
Seeing Liu Shan act like an overly dramatic grandfather, Yue Ling didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She shakes her head and chuckles softly at him.
"Don't worry, I drove myself here and I'm only here as a guest. As for Tian and Doctor Dong, I already informed them while I was on my way here."
Liu Shan was able to calm down at her words, but his eyes didn't forget to narrow at her like he didn't believe a word she said. He has always trusted her, but right now, he was hesitant.
Should he believe her words or secretly give Lu Tian and Doctor Dong a call to confirm?
"Fine, I'll take your word for it."
He decides to believe her words since she is his boss. However, that doesn't mean he will treat her like a guest. It is something that he can never do when they are inside De L'amour.
"Wait in your office. A package came in for you."
His words fell as he turns away from her and was already walking towards his office.
Yue Ling held her smile and stares at his departing figure. She lifts her leg and walks to her office. When she reached the door to her office, she was frozen in place and stares blankly at the door handle.
She slowly opens the door like she was hesitant about seeing the inside, but the second her eyes met the familiar place, she hurriedly enters.
"Oh… my second home."
She was only entering her office, but for some reason, she felt like she had opened the door into fairytale.
Quickly striding over to her desk, she didn't hesitate to sit down and spin in a circle with her swivel chair.
Most people want to be away from work, but not her. If possible, she wanted to be at work without missing a single day. After all, she loves her career as a fashion designer and despite all the hard work, she has no complaint about it.
Her palms trace over desk carefully like it was the most prize possession to her. She leans forward and gently press the side of her face against the smooth top of her desk as she closed her eyes.
"Oh, how I miss you so much."
She looked like a mother who had finally been reunited with long lost child after so many years.
While Yue Ling immerse herself in her own world, Liu Shan stood at the door with a perplex expression. He was going to knock on the door to let her know of his arrival, but seeing her this way, he didn't know if it was right for him to interrupt her little moment.
"Ahem."
However, reminding himself that there is a package for her, he clears his throat and steps inside the room.
Yue Ling's eyes flutter open and she sits up. Despite her quick change in behavior, one can see how red her cheeks are due to being caught in the act.
"Ahem. Where is the package?"
She clears her throat and stood up to walk towards the couches in her office.
Liu Shan watched her every move with a straight face. However, unable to hold himself back, he laughs out loud as he held his stomach with one hand.
"Here."
He spoke through his laughs and meets her at the couches.
Yue Ling cast him a glare before taking the package. She was about to ask him who sent the package, but seeing the address, she swallowed back her question.
"Boss, are you alright?"
Seeing her quick change in demeanor, Liu Shan stops laughing and couldn't help but ask. She was acting fine a few seconds ago, but now, she in silence.
Yue Ling thought to herself for the short second as Liu Shan's voice brought her back to her senses. She gives him a reassuring smile and set the package on the coffee table that separated the two couches.
Removing the tape, she pulls open the flaps then the packing papers that kept whatever was inside from moving around.
She picks up the note card that was inside the package and as she read the message, a soft smile curls on her lip with her body.
"What is it?"
Liu Shan asks as he tries to stretch his head to see was inside. He didn't understand what could be inside that made her smile like that. However, all he could see was the packing papers.
Hearing his question, Yue Ling place the note card on the table. She didn't need to look at him because she can already see his curious expression from the corner of her eyes.
"It's from Hana and Shin."
She doesn't bother with the card anymore and moves the packing papers. Her hand reach inside the box to take out the item.
In her hand was a small suede necklace box. She slowly opens the lid and inside was a white gold necklace with diamond pendant in the shape of a star.
She stares down at the necklace and an even softer smile curls on her lip. As her fingertips gently trace over the necklace, her eyes moisten. It was like the necklace was the most valuable item in the world and she was afraid of destroying it.
Liu Shan was taken back by surprise. A second ago she was in smiles, then in the next second she was in silence. However, now, she looked like wanted to cry but holding back her tears.
He looks at the box in her hand, but unable to see what the gift looked like, he walks overs to the couch across from her.
As he sat down, he reach for the note card she had place on the table.
Note: 'Godmother, I really really miss you. My mommy is my moon. Will you be my star?' -Little Shin Shin
Liu Shan read the message in his head and like his boss, he also felt his entire being soften to the maximum like jello.
His eyes welled up with tears and he sounds a sniffle then a chuckle to hide his urge to cry.
"That little brat is only three but he's already a sweet talker."
