As Fujiwara listened, he felt a sharp pain in his chest—
Was it not enough?
Now, he felt like he was trampling on himself?
But, what else could he do?
In such a situation, the moment he turned away, it would be forever. He would lose her forever!
So, how could he dare to turn away just like that?
“Are you in love with Qi Lei?”
Fujiwara was stunned for a long time before he looked at her and asked silently.
Dongfang Liuyun’s face was already pale. She leaned against the cold wall behind her and closed her eyes without saying a word. After calming down for a long time, she opened her eyes again and took a deep breath—
“There’s only so much we can do for each other. It’s up to you whether we’re fated or just pa.s.serbys in each other’s lives. I don’t want to be with you, so you don’t have to be stubborn. You don’t have to worry about everything that I, Dongfang Liuyun, have. Right now, I only want to be with one person for the rest of my life. That person…”
As she spoke, she suddenly raised her gaze and stared at him. Fujiwara had never seen such a resolute gaze from her before!
“It’s not you, but Qi Lei! He’s my husband, the person I should love. And you will meet the person who loves you and spend the rest of your life with her. That person won’t be me either.”
“This isn’t a fairy tale, Fujiwara… an oath of eternal love only happens in stories. Only by recognizing this can we be free. Let us go, let Lan Qi go, let everyone go.”
Fujiwara was stunned…
“Let’s just, do our best and be good on our separate ways.”
Dongfang Liuyun said this then pushed him away and squatted down. She quietly picked up the doc.u.ments and briefcase that had fallen to the ground and left.
She did not even look back…
When she walked past Lan Xiu, Lan Xiu could still see a faint glimmer in her eyes…
She must have been very sad and heartbroken, but he knew that it was not only for Fujiwara, but also for that lost youth.
When all the lost time had settled down, reminiscing it would always make one have the urge to cry.
Lan Xiu did not chase after her. He just turned his head to look at Dongfang Liuyun’s disappearing figure, his eyes flickering with a faint light—
He knew that none of them needed to chase after her because there was someone waiting for her downstairs. That was the person she should be with.
That is right, it was Qi lei.
When Dongfang Liuyun walked out of the Lan Group, she saw Qi Lei standing by her car from afar. He was standing against the light.
The warm sunlight poured on his body, covering him with a holy radiance. At this moment, she suddenly felt his figure and his appearance becoming clearer and clearer in her mind.
The sunlight stretched out his shadow so much that it reached her feet. She just had to take a step forward and she would be able to touch him.
She was in a daze for a moment. Suddenly, her eyes could not help but heat up. She, who had always felt strong, realized that she still had such a weak side. Her eyes reddened slightly as she walked over silently.
Qi Lei leaned slightly against the car door. When he saw her walk over, he looked at her silently. When he saw her slightly reddened eyes, his handsome face immediately tensed up as he narrowed his eyes and stared at her.
“What happened?”
His deep voice carried a hint of danger.
“It’s nothing. The sand got into my eyes.”
Dongfang Liuyun blinked and reached out to pull at the corner of his shirt that was messed up by the cold wind.
“You can’t even lie properly. Did Lan Xiu upset you?”
Qi Lei’s tone was filled with dissatisfaction. “He doesn’t know what’s good for him. I’ll go up and teach him a lesson for you!”
Qi Lei naturally could not bear to see Dongfang Liuyun suffer like this. He was extremely angry!
It was not easy for Qi Lei to settle this d.a.m.n doc.u.ment’s data. Not only did this Lan Xiu not know how to be grateful, he even dared to bully his woman. This was absolutely not allowed to happen.
As he spoke, he stood up and was about to rush to the door.
“Don’t go up! It’s not him!”
Dongfang Liuyun hurriedly pulled him back and explained.
Being pulled back by her like this, Qi Lei’s expression became more and more tense. He turned his head and lowered his gaze to glance at her. He was stunned for a moment before asking, “Is Fujiwara up there?”
Dongfang Liuyun’s movements also paused for a moment when she heard this. She did not reply, but that gaze had already answered his question.
Qi Lei felt an inexplicable anger rise in his heart. He clenched his fists slightly and glanced at her. He said coldly, “I’ll teach him a good lesson for you!”
“No need. He didn’t say much anway. Let’s get in the car first.”
Dongfang Liuyun took a deep breath and took out the car keys from her pocket.
“You can’t bear for me to beat him up?”
Qi Lei’s handsome brows furrowed.
“You’re no match to him, don’t take this loss.”
Dongfang Liuyun held his large hand. Her slender and pet.i.te body could not help but lean into his embrace. She wrapped her arms around his waist. “Hold me tight.”
A low voice sounded. The faint warmth from her chest made Qi Lei absent-minded for a moment. However, he could not help but raise his arms. He hugged her tightly and patted her gently—
“What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly so sentimental? This isn’t like the you I know…”
Dongfang Liuyun sniffed, and her hoa.r.s.e voice sounded a little raspy.
“I just feel that I’m quite lucky. From now on, I’ll love you wholeheartedly, trust you, and grow old with you.”
When Dongfang Liuyun said this, Qi Lei immediately stiffened. A moment later, he looked down at her with some joy and said happily,
“So, you’ve clarified what’s in your heart?”
Dongfang Liuyun blinked and nodded silently.
Qi Lei was in a daze for a moment, and the large hand around her waist also froze for a moment.
What could he say? At this moment, the vortex of fear in his heart was shrinking bit by bit?
“Then, who do you think is more important, between me and Fujiwara, who is more…”
“You’re more important. You always will be.”
Dongfang Liuyun did not wait for Qi Lei to finish before she answered him directly, “Dongfang Liuyun can’t be a saint. Forgive her selfishness. She always thought that her husband was more important because… standing behind you makes me want to be an ordinary little woman. I don’t have to wear myself out so much and don’t have to be so strong-willed.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes were unusually sincere and gentle at that moment. The relief in her heart made her eyes suddenly become clear. “I don’t want to let go of this luck again, and you are this luck.”
Qi Lei’s heart suddenly warmed when he heard that. He could not help but press her tightly into his chest and said in a low voice…
“If you like me, just tell me. Did you have to take a roundabout way to express that you want to be with me forever? However, seeing that you’re so sincere, I’ll reluctantly accept it.”
