Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Sorry, I missed this question...
OK a few suggestions:
If you decide to go to Phu Quoc -- book your accommodation and flights now. Not tomorrow, now.
I'd drop Chiang Mai off the trip completely, fly from Saigon to Luang Prabang and do your trekking either from there or spend the extra time heading north to Muang Ngoi, Nong Khiaow.
The reason I suggest skipping CM is that at best you're going to get a 2-day trek and, well, it may not be the most satisfying experience. (See this trekking story for more info) If you're planning on going to Luang Prabang anyway, you'll probably get a more "untouristed" trekking experience there.
And yeah, ask the boss for another week off work!
More questions, ask away!

Agree fully about skipping CM and doing the trek out of LP!
