In the end, the meal ended on bad terms.
After lunch, Dongfang Liuyun instructed the servants to take note of things, and then left the Tanshan Villa area, rus.h.i.+ng straight for the Dongfang Group.
The afternoon autumn sun was still somewhat warm, and the cold air in the morning had calmed down.
The plane pa.s.sed through the thick clouds and steadily landed on the runway.
“Master Qi, do you want to take a break? Your cold has become worse, you can barely speak, and you’re still…”
When they walked out of the airport, Yang Sheng followed behind Qi Lei with a worried expression.
Qi Lei was currently wearing a black windbreaker and a pair of large sungla.s.ses. He looked quite thin, and his steps were not very steady. He looked travel-worn.
He had not completely recovered from his cold, and he had been working day and night for the past few days. His body could not take it anymore, especially in this season. It was easy for him to catch a cold.
Thus, Qi Lei was affected.
His physique seemed to be much worse than before!
He frowned with some difficulty and coughed a few times. Qi Lei took a deep breath and calmed down for a while. Then, he continued walking forward—
“It’s alright. Let’s rush to the company immediately.”
His voice was naturally very hoa.r.s.e, and it sounded sickly weak.
He had been busy the night before. Initially, it was just a small cold. Unexpectedly, it became much more serious this morning. However, he could not put it on hold. He quickly finished what he was doing and rushed back.
“Master Qi, you’re already like this. Why don’t you rest for a while?”
Yang Sheng naturally placed Qi Lei’s health first.
“Have you arranged for the press conference?”
Qi Lei frowned and endured the discomfort all over his body. However, he was still concerned about the matter.
“Master Qi…”
“Hurry to the company. I can’t let her lose!” Qi Lei got into the car and ordered.
Yang Sheng’s eyes fell silent for a moment. He looked at Qi Lei worriedly in the back seat. Then, he could only sit in the car and nod at the driver beside him. The driver started the car silently.
Qi Lei could not help but fall asleep in the seat behind him as soon as he got into the car. Fatigue and exhaustion constantly troubled him. Of course, there was also the worry and longing he had for the past few days.
He was also worried that he would not be able to make it back in time. How was she going to deal with the trouble on her side?
Therefore, along the way, he experienced a feeling of anxiety.
The sound of breathing became heavier and accompanied by the sound of light coughs. Even Yang Sheng, who was in front of him, could feel the stifling air that made one sweat.
He could faintly hear the heavy and uncomfortable breathing. Yang Sheng turned around to look at Qi Lei worriedly, only to see that Qi Lei had already fallen asleep. His forehead was covered in hot sweat, his handsome face was also slightly sickly red.
“Drive slowly and steadily.”
Yang Sheng took a deep breath, blinked, and said to the driver beside him.
The driver nodded silently and slowed down the car.
Naturally, he wanted Qi Lei to rest more. He had been working overtime the entire night, but he just wanted to return faster.
“Sigh, Master Qi, you’re so diligent. I wonder about the Missus’s side…” Yang Sheng muttered softly.
He wanted to say something, but he did not.
Qi Lei was also in a deep sleep. After an unknown amount of time, the car finally drove slowly into Tai Yu Corporation’s building. Yang Sheng got out of the car and walked over carefully—
“Master Qi? Master Qi? We’re here!”
The call was heard, Qi Lei opened his heavy eyelids with some difficulty. He was in a daze for a moment before he slowly got out of the car.
“The reporters have been arranged in the guest lounge. Ten minutes has also just pa.s.sed. The people from the public relations department are already managing them. Master Qi, are we going over now?”
Yang Sheng quickly followed Qi Lei’s footsteps as he asked.
“Let’s go back to the office first and give Vice President w.a.n.g Chun a call.”
Qi Lei entered the elevator neatly. Yang Sheng followed in a hurry and handed him a warm towel.
Qi Lei took it and simply wiped his sweat. Only then did he feel much better.
Qi Lei had rushed to this point, while Dongfang Liuyun was not doing much better.
Dongfang Liuyun did not really take Qi Lei’s words from last night to heart. He told her not to worry, but she naturally could not feel rest a.s.sured and had poor sleep.
She tossed and turned all night just trying to think of a way to deal with today’s situation.
The shareholders’ meeting was going on as usual.
At the top of the table sat the true ruler of the Dongfang Group, Dongfang Shuman.
Although Dongfang Shuman was in her twilight years, her position in the Dongfang Group was very high. Most of these management people were her personal confidants, so her prestige in the company was unquestionable.
Even Dongfang Ren and Dongfang Yi had to admit defeat.
At this moment, the meeting room was already full. Dongfang Shuman, Dongfang Ren, Dongfang Yi, and the company’s vice presidents were seated on both sides of the table.
Dongfang Liuyun’s seat was just below Lin Yuanyuan’s seat, and on the opposite side was Dongfang Rou’er. The large meeting room could accommodate dozens of company shareholders and some of the company’s higher-ups.
Lin Yuanyuan did not look too good. She looked a little haggard and a little absent-minded. Dongfang Rou’er’s expression was also a little strange.
It could be seen that the Lin Corporation’s matter had dealt quite a blow to them, especially Lin Yuanyuan. It was said that she had a big argument with Dongfang Ren because of this. However, the way she looked at Dongfang Yi now was unusually fierce, filled with… hatred?
Could it be that the Lin family’s matter really had something to do with Dongfang Yi’s side?
Dongfang Liuyun was also in the mood to watch the show. Of course, she did not forget the trouble she had gotten herself into.
Dongfang Ren, who was at the top, had already briefed Dongfang Shuman on the projects he was in charge of. Following that, there were a few reports from the other people in charge.
Dongfang Liuyun had noticed that Dongfang Rou’er had been looking at her with a meaningful gaze.
However, Dongfang Liuyun was too lazy to guess. She lowered his head silently. She was a little tired. She had not rested well yesterday.
“The project is almost done. President Shu, I think it’s time to talk about the recent decline in the company’s stock market. As the head of the company’s Public Relations Department, we need to pay attention to the company’s reputation and image at all times. I think Manager Yun should give everyone a reasonable explanation for this matter.”
Dongfang Liuyun held her head and felt a little dizzy. Then, she heard a voice. She was stunned for a moment, but she also became clear-headed…
