Chapter 1591: Not A Boss But A Friend



At the Xi residence, the family welcomed a guest for breakfast―Jiang Yang. After so many years, he finally entered the Xi residence and was even sharing a meal with them. There were only four of them: Jiang Yang, Nicky, and her parents.

"Doctor Jiang, it's good to have you here after so many years," Nicky's father said.

"I feel the same," Jiang Yang replied.

"Nicky's mother went to the hospital for a check-up. How is everything?"

"There is nothing to worry about," Jiang Yang assured.

"As you said, I will take your word for it."

"You can surely trust me as Mrs. Xi's doctor."

Song Meilin interrupted the two, "We can avoid discussing my health at the table." Her words were directed at her husband, "I am absolutely fine."

"As you say," the man complied with his wife.

Nicky was quiet; she knew why Jiang Yang was here. She knew he was straightforward and would speak directly just as he had in the past. She braced herself for her parents' reaction. But, to her surprise, it was someone else who started the conversation-her mother.

"Doctor Jiang, it seems you and Nicky are together again," Song Meilin said. "What are your plans for the two of you?"

"I want to marry her," Jiang Yang declared, "But before that, we want to date like a normal couple and make up for the lost time. I want your permission to date your daughter."

"I won't ask what happened between you two back then," Song Meilin said, looking at her husband who nodded in agreement. "My husband and I do not object to it as long as you two don't repeat the past and don't leave each other again."

"It won't happen again," Jiang Yang assured. "Whatever happens, we won't part ways."

Song Meilin turned to her daughter, "Do you agree with what he said?"

"Yes," Nicky replied, looking at Jiang Yang who offered her an assuring smile.

Jiang Yuyan accepted the file and looked through it. She was still one of the major shareholders, even after transferring her shares to Lu Lijun.

"Lu Lijun planned this," Lu Jinhai informed her, "and I support his decision. He will be handling everything, and you won't need to concern yourself with the company's day-to-day operations-just show up at important board meetings. I hope this doesn't interfere with the plans you have for yourself."

Jiang Yuyan looked at the man in front of her and didn't have the heart to say no to him. "I accept it, Father."

Lu Jinhai smiled, relieved. He knew she never craved wealth or power, and it worried him that she might reject the role. After dedicating ten years of her life to the company, she deserved to be honored and to stay associated with it.

Jiang Yuyan stepped out of the office where Xiao Min was waiting for her. Having been her assistant for almost a decade, it was hard for him to imagine not following her around anymore, that she wouldn't be his boss.

"Boss."

"You don't have to call me that anymore, Xiao Min," Jiang Yuyan said, a light smile playing on her lips. "I'm no longer President Lu, who you used to work for."

It hurt when she said it, but it was the truth. "I will still consider you as my boss, though I have to change the way of addressing you now-Miss Jiang or Mrs. Lu."

"You can call me Yuyan," she offered. "I've lacked friends anyways, and the way you've known me, with all my secrets over these past ten years, and took care of me, there wouldn't be any better way for our current relationship to define. Let's be friends." She extended her

hand.

Xiao Min felt overwhelmed that she considered him a friend and nodded. "I would be honored to have you as my friend, Yuyan," he replied, accepting her handshake, a pleasant smile

playing on his lips.

"I know you will be Lu Lijun's strong support, just like you were mine," she said. "Congratulations on getting promoted to vice president."

"Thank you. I will do my best," Xiao Min assured her. "You have to meet the other side as well. I'm sure all of them would cry buckets when you say goodbye," Xiao Min said as they

walked together.

"I would like it if you joined them in crying as well," she chuckled. "I'll take a picture of all of you crying and treasure it forever."

Xiao Min chuckled back. "That will do, as I am pardoned from work today so I can accompany you to the secret base. I will make sure you get the better picture."

The two left the company and drove towards the secret base, with a few more cars following them, led by San Zemin.
