The next day, Yang Sheng rushed over early in the morning.
Qi Lei was still in a daze on the bed. Dongfang Liuyun was in his arms too. The couple only woke up when they heard sound from downstairs.
Dongfang Liuyun grabbed her messy hair and struggled out of Qi Lei’s arms. She sat up in a daze.
“It’s still early. Let’s sleep for a while!”
Before she could sit up, a pair of long arms reached out and pulled her back.
“It’s late. It’s past seven already, hurry and get up!”
Dongfang Liuyun lifted the blanket and got out of bed. She walked swiftly to the bathroom.
Qi Lei felt a chill on his body. He reached out and grabbed for the blanket for a while. When he could not find it, he climbed up and sat up…
…
The couple washed up and went downstairs. Almost half an hour later, the sky outside was bright. The morning light was faint, and the autumn air was crisp. They could faintly smell the faint fragrance of flowers in the air.
“Master Qi, the investigation you asked for has come to a conclusion. The person who did it was someone who protected the venue. According to his description, someone gave him a sum of money and asked him to throw a big bag of things onto the stage. That person told him that it was to liven up the atmosphere on the stage. That person did not realize anything and did as he was told, so…”
Yang Sheng lowered his voice and said to Qi Lei, who was reading the morning paper while sipping his tea on the sofa.
Qi Lei did not seem to be too affected upon hearing that. He just flipped a page of the newspaper in his hand. “Have you found out who’s behind this?”
At this point, Yang Sheng leaned over and lowered his voice even more—
“We were almost at the bottom of it, but I found out that the person beside President Gan is that Ah Fei. He suddenly stopped Missus’s people from investigating further. I think President Gan must have found out something. However, according to the current a.n.a.lysis, I think it’s very likely that it was someone from Lin Yuanyuan’s end. However, the person who did it was someone who knew Dongfang Yu, seems to be a friend of Dongfang Yu.”
“Oh?”
Upon hearing this, Qi Lei silently stopped his actions. He then raised his eyes and looked at Yang Sheng. That pitch-black and deep gaze made Yang Sheng instantly stunned.
After a while, Qi Lei looked away and a rare smile appeared on his handsome face, “If that’s the case, then Dongfang Yi must’ve been the one who did this. Go tell Vice President w.a.n.g Chun about this, say that it’s my idea and I’ll let him plan on how to arrange it. I want everything to look logical and reasonable.”
Yang Sheng understood what Qi Lei meant and nodded immediately. “Yes, Master Qi! Have breakfast with Missus first. I’ll make the arrangements right away.”
“By the way, let’s see if there’s anything wrong on President Gan’s end and why he suddenly stopped the investigation,” Qi Lei added on.
“Alright, Master Qi!” Yang Sheng replied and then left.
At this moment, Dongfang Liuyun and Mama w.a.n.g had just prepared breakfast.
Breakfast was a very ordinary Hong Kong-style morning tea. It was also Dongfang Liuyun and Qi Lei’s favorite.
“Master, Missus, everything is ready. The bodyguards have moved all the things into the car.”
The butler came to report.
Qi lei nodded.
“This is the list, Master!”
The butler handed over a fiery red notebook.
Qi Lei took it and casually flipped through it. He quickly closed it and handed it back to the butler. “Hand it over to a.s.sistant Yang.”
“Yes, Master!”
…
“You don’t have to move all yours treasures to the house over there. My parents aren’t people who would be polite to you. I’ve already asked Yang Sheng to remove some of them. It’s just a ceremonial ceremony. Even if you don’t offer the betrothal, my father and the others won’t be able to do anything to you.”
Dongfang Liuyun looked at his focused and serious handsome face and felt a warmth in her heart.
Qi Lei looked up at her but did not answer. He sized her up and then looked at his suit. After some thought, he said, “Go up and change into a bright-colored dress later, we’re not going to work.”
Hearing that, Dongfang Liuyun looked down at herself. She was dressed in a grayish-black professional suit. It was very formal. After some thought, it did not seem to be suitable, so she nodded.
After that, Dongfang Liuyun changed into a beautiful one-piece dress. Then, the couple went out.
It was not like before. When the couple went back, Dongfang Gan and Song Siting went to welcome them at the door.
Dongfang Liuyun knew that Dongfang Gan must have said something to Song Siting. Otherwise, knowing Song Siting, she would not have tacitly agreed to her marriage with Qi Lei so quickly.
However, regardless of whether they admitted it or not, it did not affect her very much. After all, she did not really care about their opinions. This could be considered as the freedom that she could fight for for herself.
Dongfang Gan was in a good mood and had a good att.i.tude towards Qi Lei. As soon as Qi lei sat down on the sofa, he had already taken the initiative to talk to Qi Lei about some work-related matters.
Dongfang Liuyun saw that the two of them were chatting happily, so she did not disturb them and went to the backyard alone.
The backyard was a garden of flowers and plants. Song Siting liked these flowers and plants, so Dongfang Gan built a beautiful garden for her.
Although it was already autumn, some of the flowers in the yard bloomed just right, such as the colorful chrysanthemums in front of her.
“This is the seed your father brought back from Holland two years ago. It took two years to grow these few flowers. This kind of flower is not easy to cultivate. A big bag of flower seeds only produced this few flowers.”
Just as Dongfang Liuyun was leisurely closing the purple chrysanthemum in front of her, her mother’s voice suddenly came from behind.
Dongfang Liuyun did not turn around. She continued to silently look at the flowers until Song Siting walked over and watered the flowers. Only then did she shift her gaze away.
“Father kept the plants alive?”
Dongfang Liuyun’s low voice was heard.
“You know how it is. How does Qi Lei treat you.”
Song Siting was still concerned about Dongfang Liuyun after all. After thinking for a moment, she finally asked the question.
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Liuyun turned and took a glance at her. She then nodded gently and said, “He treats me very well. He is very accommodating and tolerant, just like how father treats you.”
After Dongfang Liuyun said this, Song Siting did not know what to say because she did not know whether Dongfang Liuyun’s words were true or false.
Her daughter had always harbored prejudice against her. Every time she wanted to calm down and have a good talk with her, she would end up unhappy.
“Not everyone can be like your father, if Qi Lei…”
