‘Bang!’
The sound of the door being slammed could be heard. Even the office seemed to feel a tremor!
Dongfang Liuyun narrowed her eyes as he looked at the tightly shut door. A sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth—
This Dongfang Rou’er was quite smart. Now, she could tell that the thing with South River Project was done on purpose. However, it did not seem to be as calm as she had imagined.
“Manager Yun…”
Seeing Dongfang Rou’er leave with a gloomy face, Secretary Ding walked in worriedly and asked with concern, “Are you alright?”
“I’m fine. She won’t be able to stir up much trouble.”
Dongfang Liuyun did not care about Dongfang Rou’er. Now, she was looking forward to what Dongfang Ren would do next. Her two uncles were masters at scheming and hiding their abilities. Looking at Dongfang Ren, he was able to hold back his anger, this was enough to prove that he was a person who could keep his cool. Of course, she did not know if Lin Yuanyuan would do something stupid.
“That’s good. Oh right, Manager Yun, Vice President Yi wants you to go to his office and talk about the South River Project. There are some problems that he needs to report to you.”
Dongfang Yi?
Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes darkened. After a moment, she replied, “I understand. I’ll go up immediately.”
“Okay, Manager Yun!”
…
It was evening. It was still windy and rainy outside.
In Tai Yu Corporation’s president’s office.
Qi Lei was standing in front of a few huge screens and looking at the situation of the stock market on the screen. He was holding his phone and talking. From his tone, he sounded very gentle. There was a rare hint of gentleness on his handsome face—
“The recovery is very good. Don’t worry, Father.”
That’s right, the person on the other end of the phone was Dongfang Gan.
“Have you met your grandmother?” Dongfang Gan asked kindly.
“Not yet.”
“Liuyun, this child, thinks too much. It’s fine. Although your grandmother is quite strict, she’s not an unreasonable person. Your mother and your grandmother’s relations.h.i.+p is a little tense. Liuyun and I are also quite sensitive to this topic, so don’t think too much about it.”
During this period of time, Dongfang Gan had been in contact with Qi Lei. He had even spent more time with Qi Lei than with his own daughter, Dongfang Liuyun. Of course, the things they were discussing were all related to Dongfang Group, which means it was also related to Liuyun.
“Yes, Father, don’t worry about this. I know what I’m doing.”
“I’m exactly worried about what you mean when you say you know what you’re doing. I’ve called your mother. Although she’s quite stubborn, she’s also a very rational person. I think you probably know that she didn’t have a great att.i.tude towards you before this. I hope you won’t take it to heart. The Fujiwara family has a deep relations.h.i.+p with her. Fujiwara’s grandmother is her mentor and an old friend of your grandmother. Your mother is also on good terms with Fujiwara’s mother. She has watched Fujiwara grow up and has long treated him as her own son, just like Lan Xiu.”
Although Dongfang Gan was far away in Myanmar, he was very clear about the situation in City Z.
Fujiwara…
Upon hearing this name, Qi Lei felt a little uncomfortable, but there was no change in his expression
“I understand. I’m not thinking too much about it, don’t worry Father.”
“I think you should have some thoughts!” After Qi Lei said this, Dongfang Gan smiled. “No matter what, since you and Liuyun are already married, you are now the son-in-law of the Dongfang family.”
“Thank you, Father.”
Qi Lei smiled. “Your openness and wisdom make me feel lucky.”
“Don’t say that. You’re also very good. Liuyun is considered lucky to marry you. You two should have a child as soon as possible. That way, your Qi family can be more lively. Forget about the agreement we made before. As long as you two do well, I’ll be satisfied.”
Dongfang Gan’s slightly disappointed voice suddenly came from the other end, “I don’t want anything from you two either. I didn’t approve of it back then because I didn’t understand your situation. But from what I see now, Liuyun and you will be happier. As her father, I understand what she wants.”
“Father…”
Qi Lei did not quite understand Dongfang Gan’s words.
“I’m very satisfied with what you’ve done. Qi Lei, I believe that you’ll be a good husband and a good son-in-law. Alright, I won’t say anymore. That’s all for now.”
Dongfang Gan said a few more words, and before Qi Lei could react, he hung up the phone.
Qi Lei, on the other hand, was a little puzzled. He stared at the darkened phone screen in his hand. After thinking for a moment, he vaguely felt that something was not right
Could it be that his father-in-law had noticed something?
It was very possible!
Dongfang Gan was definitely a person who hid himself well. Just his actions in the Dongfang Group over the past few years were enough to explain everything!
“Master Qi, Chief Su is here!”
Just as Qi Lei was deep in thought, Yang Sheng’s voice was suddenly heard from behind him.
Only then did Qi Lei come back to his senses. He quickly turned his and was a little surprised. “Who’s here?”
“It’s Chief Su. Chief Su is here!” Yang Sheng replied.
Su Chen?
He had been busy with his matters and spending time with his wife, Ji Zitong. Even Zhou Zimo had complained to him several times. Why did he have time to come over?
“Let him in!”
“Okay!”
Not long after, Su Chen walked in with big strides. When he saw Qi Lei sitting on the sofa, he walked over directly—
“I thought you weren’t here.”
“You didn’t call before coming over, you might really miss out on me next time.”
Qi Lei quickly poured him a cup of hot water.
“I saw that your car was still downstairs, so I made a bet.”
Su Chen also sat down opposite him.
“I just came to see you. I didn’t have anything else to do. I heard about what happened between you and Dongfang Liuyun recently, so I was worried. I just happened to be in the vicinity for a meeting. After that, I came over to take a look.”
Su Chen also directly explained his purpose of coming.
“I’m fine. How have you been these past few days? Ji Zitong’s side…”
“Sigh, I can only say that this pregnancy is really not something that a person can endure. It’s quite torturous. When the child is born, I’ll definitely take care of it!”
When he mentioned this matter, Su Chen felt a little helpless, but his dark eyes were flas.h.i.+ng with the antic.i.p.ation of a father-to-be.
Qi Lei smiled. “When the time comes, you won’t be willing to be too harsh on the child. Alright, since we’re already here, it’s also time to get off work. Let’s go out and have a good meal.”
“You’re treating?”
“When have you ever treated me to a meal with me?”
Qi Lei gave him a sideways glance and stood up unhurriedly. He took a jacket from the side and draped it over his shoulders.
“It’s not that I’m unwilling, but you guys never gave me a chance.”
“Are you treating this time then?”
“No way! We can settle everything at Imperial Sky Entertainment City!”
“How did Mu Yuchen fall for a bad friend like you?”
