Chapter 1674: I’ll Accompany You (7)
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After more than twenty minutes, Lin Yuanyuan’s expression turned ugly, and even Dongfang Rou’er’s eyes darkened—
When Dongfang Liu Yun mentioned the doc.u.ment on Lin Yuanyuan’s table, Dongfang Rou’er had already thought of what happened in Lin Yuanyuan’s office this morning!
She had probably thought that the doc.u.ment was trash and threw it into the dustbin!
The entire meeting was suddenly filled with warm applause. Amid everyone’s praise, Dongfang Liuyun only gave a modest nod before quietly returning to her seat.
Dongfang Gan looked at Dongfang Liuyun with satisfaction and said, “You spoke well, but you still have to do what needs to be done. When you go back, make another copy of what you said today and hand it over to Manager Lin for approval.”
“Yes.” Dongfang Liuyun quickly agreed.
The meeting lasted for nearly three hours. When it ended, it was already close to noon.
They had started to rest in the afternoon.
However, Dongfang Liuyun could not leave immediately because she had to chase that copy out.
When Dongfang Gan went downstairs, she went straight to her office.
“Why aren’t you going back yet? I asked you make a copy of the doc.u.ment, but I didn’t ask you to do it right away.”
Dongfang Gan looked at her daughter who was writing furiously at her desk and asked helplessly.
“I have to take advantage of the fact that I still remember most of it in my mind and quickly do it. Otherwise, I might forget something later. It’s fine. I’ll go out to eat something later. I’ll rush back and will finish it tonight. I definitely won’t have time to do these things next week. Next week, I’ll have to do marketing all day. Time is too short.”
As Dongfang Liuyun spoke, she did not even lift her eyelids. She began to quickly and nimbly type on the keyboard in front of her.
“Then I’ll accompany you for a while! Let’s talk! Did Lin Yuanyuan deliberately put away the doc.u.ment? Did you really hand in the doc.u.ment?” Dongfang Gan asked.
“I’m 100% sure that I placed the doc.u.ment right in the middle of her desk. Even a blind person would be able to find that doc.u.ment. Of course, as for how it disappeared after that, I don’t know. I don’t want to make wild guesses. It’s just a doc.u.ment. At worst, I’ll just do it again. I don’t have time to quarrel with them. Father, you don’t have to worry about this matter for the time being. We should prioritize things. It’s fine if you want to know the reason, but right now, it’s not the main thing.”
Dongfang Liuyun did not mind. It was always best to endure and not speak out.
“It’s naturally for the best if you can think of it this way. I’m also worried about a fire in the harem. If it were your mother, she probably wouldn’t be able to take this lying down. With your personality, I don’t have to worry about many things.”
Dongfang Gan’s tone became more sincere. He pulled out the chair opposite Dongfang Liuyun and sat down—
“I’ve long expected that they wouldn’t let you have it easy either. Otherwise, I’ll arrange a few bodyguards for you. That way, I’ll feel more at ease and directly become your chauffeur.”
“That’s enough, father! I’m a low-profile person, and I don’t want to go out in a grandiose manner every time. I’ve been out here for so many years, and I’ve experienced many dangers. I know how to protect myself, so you’d better think about yourself and Ms. Song. The incident where you were injured in Myanmar made me worry for a while. I’m not able to take care of myself now. Father, you have to be careful. Don’t let anything happen to you, or else I won’t be able to clean it up myself.”
“Are you cursing me?”
Dongfang Gan glanced at Dongfang Liuyun unhappily while Dongfang Liuyun just shrugged—
“I didn’t say anything. I’m just reminding you to be careful.”
“Oh right, when will Qi Lei return? After the Mid-autumn Festival, I might have to go to Myanmar in September. There’s a problem with the mine there, and I have to go. The dispute there can’t be easily resolved,” said Dongfang Gan.
“Go to Myanmar?”
Dongfang Liuyun stopped what she was doing after Dongfang Gan said that. She silently looked up at Dongfang Gan with a serious look in her eyes—
“Must you go? The situation there isn’t very stable. It would be very dangerous to go there at this time. Besides, you’ve experienced it before.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s tone was filled with disapproval. She thought for a moment and said, “Can’t we let other people go there?”
“The secret of the mine is one of the biggest secrets of the Dongfang Group. A lot of the raw materials our company produces come from there, and we work with the people there. If they find out about it and take control of it, I’m afraid that this huge company will have no place for us sooner or later. I don’t have anything to do with it. The main thing is you and your mother. If we don’t handle this properly, a lot of people will be implicated. So, I have to personally handle this matter,” said Dongfang Gan quietly.
Dongfang Liuyun immediately frowned and carefully considered her father’s words. Naturally, he felt that it was very reasonable, but…
“Then, we’ll go over a few days later. After grandmother’s birthday, there’s still Qi Lei’s side…”
Dongfang Gan nodded, “It’s fine. I know. Let’s quickly settle the matter between Qi Lei and you. It’s nothing much at this stage. Your grandmother is a shrewd person. Although I’m her son, it doesn’t mean that she’s biased towards me. It’s the same for you. The rise and fall of the Dongfang family is tied to her. You have to be understanding of her.”
“What’s there that I don’t understand? She has always wanted to be a great and righteous person, a wise person in the family. I can understand.”
“That’s right. Your grandmother was so strong all her life, but she lost to… However, it’s naturally best that you can come to your senses. Each of us has our own standpoints. By standing in the other party’s position and a.n.a.lyzing their thoughts, we will be able to understand our opponents more clearly.”
“Alright, father, I know what you want to say. I don’t feel not at ease in my heart. I am very open-minded. In fact, there is nothing that I can’t see through. Things have already come to this point. When you want to go over, you must be fully prepared. Safety comes first in everything. If you lose your life then nothing else matters,” said Dongfang Liuyun calmly.
Dongfang Gan smiled and took a shallow breath, “It’s okay. I know what I’m doing. Your mother is probably tacitly agreeing to the matter between you and Qi Lei. Don’t think too much about it. Just live your life. I’ll be very happy when you have a child and I become a grandfather. We’re not young anymore.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s fair face turned slightly red. “Let nature take its course. It’s not something you can manifest just by thinking about it. Ms. Song only had me after being married to you for more than two years. I can’t be anxious about it.”
