Qi Lei finally stopped. He cleared his throat and thought about it seriously before replying in a low voice—
“Bring me to Sky Restaurant No. 1 then. I haven’t been there in many years, the scenery there should be much more beautiful now. In the past…”
When Qi Lei said this, he paused for a moment. His dark eyes suddenly flashed with a trance.
The ambience there was pretty good, the dishes were decent. Most importantly, he enjoyed it very much, the mood was great. A few years ago, he had wanted to ask Gu Lingsha to go with him, but it did not happen.
Now that he thought about it, it seemed like everything had changed.
Among the four of them, Qi Feng, Gu Lingsha, Mu Lingtian, and him, Qi Lei, he was the only one left…
Thinking of this, Qi Lei’s eyes suddenly darkened.
“What’s wrong?”
Dongfang Liuyun could naturally sense that something was wrong with him, so she slowed down slightly and asked in a low voice with a hint of concern in her tone.
Qi Lei only slowed down at this moment, and his footsteps continued—
“It’s nothing. I’m wondering if you can fulfill this condition of mine.”
Dongfang Liuyun smiled happily. “Of course! Let’s go on the night you come back. Confirm the time, I think we’d need to make a reservation.”
“Okay.” He answered simply.
…
The couple chatted for a while. When they hung up, Qi Lei had arrived at the hotel.
“Master Qi, it’s so late. You should rest early. Things here are just finishing up. Chairman Mu and President Xi will probably be back the day after tomorrow. School has already started for quite a while, they’re worried about the children being home alone.”
When Yang Sheng was preparing midnight snacks for Qi Lei, he could not help but say when he saw that Qi Lei was still fixated on the doc.u.ment in his hand.
“It’s okay. I just need to improve the design on my side. I’ll work on it tonight. I should be able to hand it over to President Li tomorrow. Call Vice President Yue now and ask him to come over tomorrow afternoon. When I hand this doc.u.ment over to President Li, he’ll be in charge of things here. Also, make a reservation for the flight back to City Z tomorrow night. We’ll rush back tomorrow.”
Qi Lei reached for the cigarette packet on the table and took one out. He lit it up and took a leisurely puff. As he flipped open the doc.u.ment in front of him, he continued to read it.
“Tomorrow?”
Yang Sheng was stunned and said in surprise, “Isn’t it too rushed, Master Qi?”
“It’s fine as long as the mission is completed. We’ve been out for almost a month. If you like it, you can keep staying here. I’ll go back first.” Qi Lei answered without turning his head.
“That won’t do. I’ll definitely go back with you!”
Yang Sheng quickly replied, “Do you want to tell Chairman Mu then?”
Yang Sheng had already automatically cla.s.sified Qi Lei’s decision as that their Master Qi was definitely missing the Missus at home!
As he thought about it, he carefully narrowed his eyes at Qi Lei. Seeing that he was focused on flipping through the doc.u.ments, he could not help but laugh.
“Do as you see fit. Anyway, I have to return to City Z before eight o’clock tomorrow night,” Qi Lei said.
Only then did Yang Sheng clear his throat and quickly replied, “Yes, Master Qi! Don’t worry, I’ll do it right away.”
“Make me a pot of tea first.”
It was obvious that he wanted to stay up late to complete the task at hand—
Their Master Qi was really eager to return home!
If Qi Lei knew that Yang Sheng thought so, he might have rolled his eyes at him!
He had been staying out for nearly a month now, and he was already tired of staying out. After some time, he naturally wanted to go home and rest quietly for a few days.
…
Dongfang Liuyun had been very busy recently, leaving early and returning late.
She had rested late last night and was very tired in the morning. The dark circles under her eyes were also very obvious. She had to put on a light make-up to barely cover up the fatigue on her face.
It was the weekend, but because the Mid-autumn Festival was fast approaching, the activities were also somewhat urgent. The company often held update meetings on Sat.u.r.day mornings. As a project manager, Dongfang Liuyun had to attend this meeting of course.
She arrived at the company early in the morning. After Dongfang Liuyun had finished preparing the proposal, she sent it over straight to Lin Yuanyuan.
The meeting was at nine o’clock, and it was now past eight o’clock. In theory, this proposal was meant for Lin Yuanyuan to go through.
“Manager Yun!”
Dongfang Liuyun had just walked to the door of Lin Yuanyuan’s office when she saw Lin Yuanyuan’s secretary walk out.
“Yes, is Manager Lin Inside?” Dongfang Liuyun asked.
“Manager Lin hasn’t come to work yet, but it should be about time. Are you here to deliver the proposal?”
The secretary looked at Dongfang Liuyun and was polite. She had seen the scene that day and knew that Dongfang Liuyun had a great background. Therefore, she did not dare to neglect her now.
Dongfang Liuyun frowned when she heard this. She thought for a moment and was about to turn around and leave when the secretary spoke again, “Manager Yun, Manager Lin will be here soon. You can leave this proposal here for now. Once Manager Lin gets to work, you will be able to handle it immediately.”
Dongfang Liuyun listened and thought for a moment before nodding. “Then I will put it on her desk. You can remind her later that it is a doc.u.ment that will be used in a meeting. It is very urgent.”
“Alright, Manager Yun!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Dongfang Liuyun walked into the office and placed the doc.u.ment on Lin Yuanyuan’s table, right in the middle where it was very eye-catching.
After that, she instructed the secretary before leaving.
However, Dongfang Liuyun probably would not know that not long after she left, another person came over.
“Good morning, Manager Rou!”
Upon seeing Dongfang Rou’er, the secretary greeted her respectfully.
“Mmm, good morning! Is my mother not here yet?”
Dongfang Rou’er asked as she walked towards Lin Yuanyuan’s office.
“Not yet, she should be here soon. Manager Rou, you should wait for a while. Usually she’ll be arriving soon at about this time. I’ll go make you a cup of coffee first!”
“Okay, hurry up, add a little more sugar!” Dongfang Rou’er walked towards Lin Yuanyuan’s office desk and said.
“Okay, Manager Rou! Please wait for a moment, it’ll be ready soon!”
The secretary quickly left.
Dongfang Rou’er sat comfortably in Lin Yuanyuan’s office chair and leaned back comfortably. Her beautiful eyes scanned her surroundings and soon found the doc.u.ment on the table. She was about to take it over and flip through it, however, a sound came from the door. The secretary had already brewed coffee and walked over.
“Manager Rou, please have some coffee— Aiya!”
Before she could finish her sentence, Dongfang Rou’er subconsciously reached out her hand and accidentally touched the cup. The boiling hot coffee instantly spilled out…
