Chapter 523: Dispute

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy @Translation

With Wang Qin’s abrupt shout, the noise in the office instantly halted and a stiff coldness appeared in the air.

The mother and son stared at each other just like that.

Wang Qin’s eyes were filled with anger and disappointment which she endured, yet Qi Lei just sneered. The light in his dark eyes was cold as the autumn waters.

After a while, he averted his gaze and apathetically looked down at the document in his hand. “You know that I’m just telling the truth. If you divorce him, you might even get something from him, and with what you have, you can definitely come out whole. Don’t wait until the end when you’re just there paving the way for someone else. The old man is cold and heartless. You have always known this. If he’s even this stingy to a woman, he’s not that great a person.”

Qi Lei’s calm voice was heard, yet it brought a vague feeling of pain. Wang Qin could actually hear a hint of dullness and stillness from his words.

Her expression was a mix of emotions as she sighed deeply and held back the surging emotions in her heart. After she eased off for a while, she stared at Qi Lei. “My son, I just… I just worry about you. Do you understand? You are Qi Qiming’s rightful son, and I, Wang Qin, gave birth to you. You should be enjoying exceptional advantages and be doted on endlessly. You should be the one enjoying the love of everyone, but for the sake of Qi Qifeng, Qi Qiming could be so heartless. This makes me extremely disappointed and sad!”

Wang Qin’s tone could not help but start to turn solemn as her fingers that held onto the side of Qi Lei’s desk began to turn pale. You could tell that she was trying her hardest to control her emotions too.

“You know that the marriage between Qi Qiming and I had nothing to do with feelings. Long before I married Qi Qiming, I already knew that I, Wang Qin, would have no options in this lifetime. Qi Qiming pressures me in all aspects. He can even be this cold to his own son, yet he offers extreme care for that illegitimate son, Qi Feng. How can I stomach this? I can disregard how he has been treating me, but, Xiao Lei, I’m only fighting for what you deserve! I’ve never lost to anyone before. I hope that as my son, you can do this too. You have to understand that life is like a battlefield. Only the victors have a right to speak!” Wang Qin spoke sincerely and earnestly, even though her elegant face seemed somewhat grave, her gaze had softened.

She stared at Qi Lei for a moment, then she could not help but continue again, “Now, I’ve received news that Qi Feng might not be dead. All these years, he has been hidden by Qi Qiming. He must be trying to evade us. While I thought that Qi Feng was dead all these years, I put my guard against Qi Qiming down. Now, all of the company’s shareholders are on his side. If this continues, you should know what the outcome will be in the next shareholder meeting. Qi Qiming is despicable and cruel. I’m sure you know this better than I do.”

Wang Qin could not help but sigh again. She glanced at Qi Lei with a difficult gaze before she finally turned away abruptly. “If you must be like this, I can’t force you either. I just hope that you can understand that all that I do today isn’t for me. If you aren’t willing, then I’ve got nothing to say, but I’ll continue to work hard for it. If you don’t want it, then I’ll destroy it!”

When she finished, Wang Qin left the office in huge strides. Her resounding footsteps sounded heavy, yet as he watched her current figure, she seemed a little too upright.

Qi Lei silently looked up from the documents and watched as Wang Qin gradually vanish out of the door. His handsome face unexpectedly started to shift. He pondered for a while, yet his gaze darkened. After a long while, he sighed and quietly shut his eyes before he leaned back against his chair exhaustedly.

Why must it be like this?

Was there meaning to such struggle?

Even if they got Qi Kai, what would that do?

Could he make Qi Qiming and Wang Qin, this couple who had been fighting openly and maneuvering covertly for half their lives, to coexist peacefully?

Could it allow Qi Lei to obtain his love?

Could it allow him to have happiness or joy?


The answer was—

It could not!

Since it could not, then even if he had Qi Kai, what was the point?

When Qi Lei thought this, he sighed. His handsome brows furrowed and he opened up his tightly shut eyes. Suddenly, his chest felt heavy. He could not help but pull the drawer on the side open as he took a cigarette box and lit a stick up. When he put the box back, he saw that in one corner of the drawer was that familiar drawing book.

Those little pigs with all sorts of expressions…

Qi Lei hesitated for a moment before he quietly took it out. Through the faintly surfacing smoke, he casually flipped through it.

She really had the time to draw such cute things…

When she drew these little things, she must have felt…

As Qi Lei thought about it, the image of Mu Yuchen crashing into his villa and taking her away suddenly flashed in his mind. Before he left, he had even thanked him.

When did Mu Yuchen learn how to say such things?

In fact, it was for a woman.

After that, he even said that Shasha might be returning.

The light in Qi Lei’s gaze shifted from dark to light. In that instance, you could not quite tell how he felt.

It was not sure how long had passed before he got up and walked to the sofa. He took the newspaper that was tossed onto the sofa and walked to the window as he flipped through it and studied the pictures in them.

He stood on the very top floor. Although he could not see the huge group of reporters that gathered around the entrance of the Qi Kai building, he believed that perhaps at Glory World Corporation, it was probably the same.

Rich and Powerful Lady Has An Affair, Qi Kai’s Young Master Gets A Share of the Action?

Affair Exposè?

Unwilling To Remain Lonely?

All sorts of speculations emerged. One after another, each headline was more ridiculous than the ones before!

Qi Lei already knew about this news yesterday. However, he did not clarify anything. Instead, it was Yang Sheng who kept helping him deal with those keen reporters. He was even planning to hold a press conference, but he was stopped.

Of course, like Mu Yuchen, he had taken the effort to take down all the negative news. As a result, many of today’s newspapers no longer published the discussion of the news anymore.

Even so, it did not really seem to completely deal with the media.

He let out a puff of smoke, then closed the newspaper in his hand. After some thought about it, he then finally turned to walk back to his desk. He tossed the newspaper aside, and then picked up his phone to make a call.
