Naturally, Doris knew about Qi Lei’s feelings for Gu Lingsha before.
Although Doris did not know Qi Lei very well, she knew that he was pretty sweet toward her daughter and was polite to her as well, but she did not really care much for him due to her less than desirable relationship with Wang Qin.
Doris had always intended for Mu Yuchen to be her son-in-law. Besides, Qi Feng was not up to her standards.
She heard that Qi Lei was pretty concerned about Gu Lingsha’s news in the past few years, but they got into a fight soon after that although Doris had no idea what happened. However, she did feel annoyed right now.
“How bold of Qi Feng to ask this! Throwing this problem to me and making me the bad guy here…is he trying to get results by doing nothing?” Doris laughed coldly.
“Ms. Doris, please don’t doubt Master’s intentions. You should know that’s the only way now with the situation he’s in at the moment. Both of you are on the same side now. The two of you are working with Ms. Shasha tying you two together, isn’t it?” Morrison pointed out their relationship. “Don’t worry. Master always keeps his word. He’ll give you whatever he’s promised. Ms. Shasha is the First Master’s wife. Does it not make sense for him to help her?” he assured her.
“Don’t try to sugarcoat your words. Is Qi Feng really that innocent? I’m not Shasha! And it’s not like I need Qi Feng to fulfill my wishes.” Doris did not seem to care.
“Ms. Doris, you’re a smart woman. I suppose you wouldn’t want the information Master has gathered to be leaked, will you? Mu Yuchen probably found out about something in New York too. Mr. Gu has also been looking for the child’s fa—”
“Enough! Stop!” Doris’ expression turned cold instantly. “Don’t think that you can threaten me. If it weren’t for Shasha, I’d make sure you regret your words today! Go back and tell Qi Feng that I need time to consider this. Qi Lei isn’t someone that I can just do something about easily, and Qi Qiming’s subordinates aren’t idiots either. Why else didn’t they do something already?”
“Don’t worry, Ms. Doris. Master will cooperate with you.” Morrison smiled. “However, we hope you can get it done cleanly, or else, we might be in bigger trouble instead.”
“I don’t need a mere subordinate of Qi Feng’s to lecture me!” Doris glanced at Morrison coldly as she started to dislike him. She knew that he had unkind intentions, but his loyalty to Qi Feng was unwavering.
Morrison was stunned for a moment. Then, he smiled without saying anything.
“Go back now and tell Qi Feng to come and talk to me himself the next time. Is he that unhappy to see his mother-in-law?” Doris’s tone of voice was cold, and she did not sound like she actually cared about her son-in-law at all.
“I understand! I’ll go back now!” Morrison was angry, but he could not say anything because he knew how powerful Doris was. Even Gu Qiwu and Qi Feng had to be wary of her.
Morrison soon left the room.
The room turned quiet all of a sudden.
Doris’s eyes darkened as she sat stationary. She then suddenly flung the wine glass in front of her.
Clank—
The sound of glass breaking echoed through the room. Her subordinates dared not make a squeak, but they all knew Doris was not in a good mood.
“Qi Feng, how dare you threaten me!?” Doris ground her teeth.
“Miss, Qi Feng’s attitude recently…he didn’t take you seriously at all. Ms. Lingsha’s situation isn’t very good, but he doesn’t seem to be trying his best at all. Could it be…”
“Don’t underestimate Qi Feng’s ambitions. Qi Lei starting out on his own isn’t weird, but he’s trying to stop him at full force right now. It’s clear to see what his intentions are.” Doris pinched the space between her eyebrows as she spoke with a cold tone. Her chest felt suffocated.
“Miss, should we give Qi Feng a warning?” her subordinate asked.
Doris took a deep breath and raised her hand. “There’s no need. It’s not the time to be infighting right now, and Qi Feng realizes that. I’ll remember this. I’ll make sure he knows there are some people he shouldn’t mess with.”
“Yes, Miss! What should we do now then? I doubt we can be of help with Ms. Lingsha’s case. The police are clinging onto the evidence fiercely and we can’t just get her out easily at the moment. This matter is oddly identical to what happened over in New York. It’s very likely that Mu Yuchen is behind this. Perhaps, Qi Feng was trying to observe our reactions by pushing this problem onto us, so it’s best we proceed with care.”
Doris’s trusted subordinate was called Glenn who was a middle-aged man and had been a trusted assistant of hers. He used to work under Doris’s mother before being reassigned to Doris.
“To be able to control things from thousands of miles away, Mu Yuchen is much more powerful than we imagined. He managed to make Gu Qiwu and Qi Feng suffer the last time as well, we should be careful. Shasha made a blunder this time, I’m really disappointed that she can’t even deal with Xi Xiaye, what’s the point of getting jealous all the time?”
Doris was unhappy.
“Miss, I don’t think we can put the blame onto Ms. Lingsha. Mu Yuchen was Ms. Lingsha’s fiancè before, and now that he’s become Xi Xiaye’s husband, as her relationship with Qi Feng deepens, this issue is probably…”
“You don’t have to speak for her sake. She’s just useless! I warned her that being too emotional is immature! Men have the innate attitude to be enslaved. The more you care, the more they don’t take you seriously. Just look at what happened to my mother. What a tragedy! Just look at the mess I had to clean up for her all these years!” Doris expression was cold. “Shasha’s just like my mother: cowardly and useless. They were born princesses, but they act like slaves to their men!”
