As soon as he finished speaking, the figure quickly passed by.
Wang Chun sighed quietly. Watching Qi Lei’s figure walk ahead, he could not help but turn to look at Qi Qiming’s ward. Finally, he could only withdraw his gaze and follow him.
“Second Master, Dongfang Rou’er from the Dongfang Group called me today to make an appointment to talk to me. I think it’s about the South River Project.”
Wang Chun caught up and said in a low voice, “Dongfang Ren had already probed me before. When President Qi met him at a dinner party, he also mentioned brought this up, so they should have been watching this project for a long time.”
“Dongfang Ren? Hasn’t he always wanted to replace Dongfang Gan’s position in the Dongfang Group?”
“Yes, and so does Dongfang Yi. The three of them have been secretly dealing with each other for many years, and there’s also the powerful Dongfang Xue. The Dongfang family’s waters are very deep, so Second Master, Young Madam, it’s not easy for her. “It’s hard for her to deal with these people…”
As Wang Chun spoke, he suddenly thought of Dongfang Liuyun. Thinking about how such a proud person fought with these people, he really felt that it was tough for Dongfang Liuyun—
This was practically the same as the court battles in ancient times.
As Qi Lei listened, his eyes darkened. After thinking for a while, he suddenly said in a low voice, “It’s not easy, but she won’t lose. What belongs to her can only return to her hands forever.”
Qi Lei could understand that feeling because when he thought about it, Dongfang Liuyun’s current situation was actually similar to how he was in the past?
Qi Kai, back then, even the Qi family’s elder personally agreed for Qi Lei to inherit it. Now, Dongfang Liuyun was Dongfang Gan’s only daughter, but because of her identity as a daughter… This was the old conversative thought process, why was she still so unfortunate to have it affect her.
At the thought of this, Qi Lei suddenly felt a little sad because of the predicament Dongfang Liuyun faced.
“You should respond to her for the time being. I won’t interfere in this matter. Let’s follow the original plan for the collaboration with Dongfang Group. Of course, I don’t want to see anyone appear in front of me to negotiate with me later, other than your Missus. Do as you see fit.”
When Qi Lei said this, Wang Chun was stunned. After a long while, he finally understood what Qi Lei meant—
It was obvious that he wanted him to do everything he could to drag the Missus into this and then openly go easy on her. Could there be such a thing?
Wang Chun could not help but cough. He said, “I understand, Second Master. I’ll do as I see fit!”
Hearing him say this, Qi Lei gave him a sideways glance and walked towards the car in front.
“I’ll drive myself back. You guys should leave too. I’ll rest for the next two days. Don’t disturb me if there’s nothing else.”
Qi Lei said this and quickly opened the car door. He got in and drove away.
..
The air was stiflingly hot. As he drove slowly across the road, he could see sweaty pedestrians everywhere. Qi Lei glanced at the time on the screen and saw that it was almost six o’clock. The sky was a little dark, the thunderstorm had not passed yet. After some thought, he called Dongfang Liuyun.
When she received Qi Lei’s call, Dongfang Liuyun was packing up to get off work.
“Are you off work? I’m about to arrive at your office.”
Qi Lei’s voice came through. Today, he went for a discussion with the President of another company, so he sent her to work as well. Dongfang Liuyun did not drive to work today.
“I just packed up my things and was preparing to go downstairs.”
“Hurry up.”
Qi Lei said these two words, then hung up and sped up.
A few minutes later, Dongfang Liuyun also packed her things and went downstairs. However, to her surprise, just as she walked to the door, she saw Dongfang Rou’er’s slender figure in front of her—
She wore a custom-made light muslin dress and held an exquisite high-end handbag in her hand. She had the style of a perfect goddess.
Even Jin Sheng, who was waiting for her with a bouquet of flowers in his hands, could not take his eyes off her. His eyes were filled with an amazement that could not be concealed as he silently watched Dongfang Rou’er approach him.
“What’s wrong? Are you dumbfounded?”
Dongfang Rou’er’s lips curled into a perfect smile as she looked shyly at Jin Sheng, who was in a daze.
Jin Sheng did not mind and withdrew his gaze. He took a step forward and handed the bouquet of lilies over to Dongfang Rou’er.
Dongfang Rou’er received it generously. She lowered her head and asked before smiling to say, “It smells so good. Thank you!”
As she spoke, she held Jin Sheng’s arm with one hand and smiled, “Where are you planning to treat me to dinner? I’ve already said it. It’s your turn this time. I was the one who paid for it last time.”
“I’ll listen to you. However, you were the one who fought to buy it last time. I’m very innocent.”
Jin Sheng’s joyful laughter could also be heard. The two of them walked out together. That scene naturally caused many people to be envious.
Dongfang Liuyun, who was walking behind them, slowed down a little. She watched the two of them walk out of the door together before she walked over unhurriedly.
Initially, she thought that it would be less troublesome if she did not go up too much. However, sometimes, there were people who just could not bear to see her being comfortable!
As they walked past the door, Dongfang Rou’er’s gaze swept past the glass door at the side. She actually noticed Dongfang Liuyun, who was walking not far behind them. Her eyes flickered for a moment before she suddenly pulled Jin Sheng and turned around to look behind her.
The person in front suddenly stopped. Dongfang Liuyun also stopped walking at an unhurried pace in the next moment and raised her gaze to look at the two of them.
“Dongfang Liuyun!”
“Did Fourth Sister just get off work?”
Their voices were heard almost at the same time.
Dongfang Liuyun calmly retracted her gaze and nodded, “You don’t seem to be sincere in inviting me to dinner. Can you move aside? I still have to get to the supermarket to buy ingredients and cook.”
“Since when did Fourth Sister learn to cook? From what I remember, you lead quite a pampered life.”
Dongfang Rou’er’s eyes were filled with surprise. She glanced at Jin Sheng, who had a complicated expression on his face, and smiled.
“Don’t act like you know me so well. I’m afraid your impression of me is still the same as when we were children. Moreover, what you said made me a little dissatisfied. When you were seven years old, didn’t you take the cake that I personally baked to give to grandfather as a birthday present? Didn’t you know already know then that I’m not that pampered?”
As Dongfang Liuyun spoke, she looked at Dongfang Rou’er with a teasing look. She looked on with satisfaction at her suddenly stiff and taut little face.
“Dourth sister, you must be joking. That was the cake that Auntie Wu found for me. I didn’t know that you personally baked it. It’s not my fault…”
“She’s also one of your people, wasn’t she?”
