Chapter 1637: Stop (2)
These words naturally surprised Dongfang Gan, but on second thought, he seemed to be able to understand her reason for doing so.
After some thought, he said, “I won’t interfere in the matters of you young people. Lan Xiu has always been very good to you, and I also feel that it’s a pity, but no matter what, I hope that he can live a happier life.”
“Don’t worry. I hope that he can live a good life too.”
Dongfang Liuyun turned around. “I’ll go back first. You should think carefully about what I told you.”
Dongfang Gan nodded, and Dongfang Liuyun left the office.

“Master Qi.”
By the railing at the bottom of the steps in the backyard, Yang Sheng found Qi Lei sitting in a chair with a sketchbook sketching a corner of the lake in front of him.
He was so focused that he did not even notice Yang Sheng walking over. Yang Sheng’s words quickly drifted in the wind. When he got closer, he saw a half-finished drawing on Qi Lei’s sketchbook.
Qi Lei finally came back to his senses when he noticed the footsteps behind him had stopped. His hands did not stop either. He continued to draw a few fine lines with his eyes lowered.
“What’s the matter?” His deep voice carried a hint of peace.
He had always known that his Master was a genius in the construction industry and had seen the drawings he had completed. However, it was rare for him to draw a scenery. However, from the looks of it now, their Master was also skilled in drawing.
Yang Sheng did not know how to draw. He only felt that the drawing on his Master’s paper was very good and somewhat realistic.
“Oh, Master Qi, Special a.s.sistant w.a.n.g Chun asked me to send you the inspection report on the Dongfang Group. Take a look. If it’s approved, sign it and hold a high-level meeting tomorrow to discuss the next work plan for the South River Project. In addition, during the meeting, an investigation team will be set up to conduct various inspections on the companies that bid. There’s also a proposal for the work plan here. Take a look.”
It took Yang Sheng a long time to come back to his senses. He quickly explained the purpose of his visit and handed over the two doc.u.ments in his hands.
Qi Lei listened and gave him a sideways glance, but he quickly averted his gaze and continued to finish the drawing on the paper.
Yang Sheng naturally did not dare to disturb him. He silently took back the doc.u.ments and sat down quietly. He waited by the side until about half an hour had pa.s.sed before Qi Lei put away the pen in his hand in general satisfaction, he also put the sketchbook in a corner of the table.
“He’s quite efficient.”
Qi Lei casually poured a gla.s.s of water and drank a few sips. As he spoke, he pointed to the seat opposite him. “Sit.”
Yang Sheng quickly walked over and sat down obediently. Qi Lei also leisurely poured a gla.s.s of water for him.
“Special a.s.sistant w.a.n.g Chun was President Qi’s most capable a.s.sistant in the first place. President Qi is a strict person, so he’s very appreciative of his abilities. Also, I heard that he and President Qi are like teachers and friends for each other. President Qi treated him very well. Now that the company has settled down so quickly, he’s actually very useful.” Yang Sheng could not help but praise him.
Qi Lei raised his head and narrowed his eyes at him as he reached out. “You have quite a high opinion of him.”
Yang Sheng handed the doc.u.ment over and smiled, “Of course. When I first joined the company, I worked under him. He was meticulous in everything he did. I admire him very much. Even Vice President w.a.n.g had high praises for him. VP w.a.n.g only admires this w.a.n.g Chun among the people around President Qi.”
Qi Lei paused for a moment. He thought about it then said, “I was a little hesitant at first, but now that you’ve said it, I’m certain.”
“What are you certain of, Master Qi?” Yang Sheng asked curiously.
“I plan to transfer Yue Hai to City B. He’s quite capable, and he’s skilled too. The boss of the Yue family has been transferred to City B. Qi Kai’s internal structure is no longer the same as before. I’ve switched up a few people in a row, and Yue Hai understands my intentions. He’s learned his lesson. He applied to transfer me to City B himself.”
“Transfer to City B?”
Yang Sheng was a little surprised, but on second thought, a smile flashed across his face. “This is a good thing, Master Qi. It’s rare for Yue Hai to take the initiative to make such a request.”
“He’s not as reckless here as before. Now That Xi Xinyi is doing well in America, I’ve given him quite a lot of benefits. If he wants more, he can only walk out.”
Qi Lei flipped through the doc.u.ment in front of him and started browsing through it.
“I see. If that’s the case then Master Qi, you’re saying that you’re planning to let w.a.n.g Chun take over Yue Hai’s position as Vice President? Be in charge of Qi Kai’s affairs?” Yang Sheng guessed Qi Lei’s motives.
“Mmm, w.a.n.g Chun is undoubtedly the clearest about Qi Kai’s situation. His prestige in Qi Kai is quite high, and his relationship with the higher-ups is very harmonious. I’ve been thinking about it for a long time.”
Qi Lei flipped through a page of the doc.u.ment, paused for a moment, and continued, “Let’s wait until the inspection is over. After he’s a.s.signed, your side will be too busy. You can pay attention to the HR department now and ask them to recommend a capable secretary to help you with your work.”
“Oh, okay Master Qi! I got it. I’ll instruct the HR department to pay attention to it later,” replied Yang Sheng.
“Oh right, Master Qi, the things you asked me to prepare have all been settled. The date has also been chosen. Based on the birth dates of you and Missus, it should be after August 15th next month. August 20th is the most suitable date for the betrothal. What do you think…,” Yang Sheng asked carefully.
“August 20th? What’s so suitable about it? Are there no good days this month?”
“There are, but I’ve invited a few gentlemen to take a look. They all say that this is the best day. Everything will be smooth sailing in the future. The husband and wife will be harmonious and grow old together. The rest of the days will be…”
“We’ll stick to this day then. We still have to wait for so long!” Qi Lei frowned.
Yang Sheng looked at him and smiled. “It’s fine, Master Qi. You’re already registered with the Missus. Even if you don’t betroth her, Missus is now yours. With the marriage certificate in hand, the Missus won’t be able to escape, and the Dongfang family won’t be able to blame anyone either.”
“Nothing good comes out of that mouth of yours! Do I look like someone who can’t even afford a wife?” Qi Lei glared at Yang Sheng unhappily.
“Even if I let down the whole world, I won’t let down the woman who marries me. I heard that when you married your wife, you only gave your mother-in-law’s family 10,000 yuan. Is that true?”
When Yang Sheng heard that, he immediately felt embarra.s.sed. “Back then… well back then we didn’t have the money. Also, we… did a shotgun wedding…”
