As soon as Qi Qiming finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the door.
Dongfang Liuyun glanced at Qi Lei, and Qi Lei followed suit.
The few of them walked towards the hospital’s backyard.
Qi Qiming walked in front unhurriedly, while Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun followed behind in silence.
The weather today was quite warm. It was almost noon, and there were quite a number of people who came out to take a walk and bask in the sun. Qi Qiming walked along the cement path in front of him.
“Things at the company are going well, right?”
After walking for a long distance, Qi Qiming, who had been walking in front with his hands behind his back, suddenly stopped. He turned his head to look at his son who was following behind him and asked in a deep voice.
The sudden question made Qi Lei pause for a moment, then he said, “It’s going well.”
“That’s good. w.a.n.g Chun has already roughly told me what happened. I didn’t expect so many things to have happened recently. There are so many things that I can’t remember. Your mother, she…”
Qi Qiming suddenly stopped speaking. His pale face froze for a moment, and he did not continue speaking.
He already knew about w.a.n.g Qin from w.a.n.g Chun. Of course, there was also the matter with Qi Feng. Although he could not recall what happened, the information that he had found and the things that w.a.n.g Chun had told him personally should not be lies.
“I have already done the examination several times, and there are basically no problems. I want to be discharged from the hospital tomorrow. Since Qi Kai has already been taken over by you, I don’t need to worry about it anymore. You should take good care of it.”
Qi Qiming did not continue to talk about w.a.n.g Qin. However, Dongfang Liuyun could see the bleak and dejected look in his eyes when he looked away. Faintly, there seemed to be a hidden… pain?
Was it because of w.a.n.g Qin?
Dongfang Liuyun could not tell.
Qi Qiming retracted his gaze and continued to walk forward, “I’m old, and there are many times when my strength isn’t up to my expectations. Moreover, the situation is like this now. The burden of the Qi family is still on your shoulders. Don’t think about the past anymore.”
“Do you think that you can just pretend like nothing happened and that others could do the same as you?” Qi Lei replied indifferently after Qi Qiming’s words. Dongfang Liuyun frowned slightly and tugged at his sleeve.
Qi Qiming suddenly turned to look at Qi Lei. Facing Qi Lei’s silent gaze, Qi Qiming’s eyes were as clear as water.
“Since I can, why can’t you?”
A moment later, Qi Qiming averted his gaze and replied.
“As people we have to always look ahead. Now that you have a wife, you still have a long way to go, no need to focus on those things in the past. I know you’re not satisfied with me as a father, but a father is a father, and a son is a son. This fact cannot be changed.”
Qi Qiming’s tone was very calm. Although his words sounded a little uncomfortable, Dongfang Liuyun did not notice any excessive emotions.
“I know you’ve arranged other accommodations for me. I want to return to the Qi family’s old mansion,” said Qi Qiming.
“After all, that is the Qi family’s hundred-year-old mansion. It has the efforts of several generations of the Qi family. Just let them renovate it. It’s not good to have the house too quiet, rear a few Huskies. I remember that you’ve always liked this dog. Previously, when you wanted to rear them, I objected because your mother didn’t like these pets very much, and it was too noisy.”
Qi Qiming also vaguely remembered these things. He could not be too sure about the incomplete fragments, but he would not be so lonely if he kept a few pets like this.
When he said this, Qi Lei’s expression became gloomy and uncertain.
“Huskies are quite cute, it’s good to have a few. Why didn’t I know you liked Huskies before? I didn’t see you having them either.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s calm voice broke the deadlock. As she spoke, she glanced at Qi Lei with some confusion. She had a feeling that he would not like Huskies.
“You’ve never asked me either?”
Qi Lei glanced at her with annoyance. He could sense that Dongfang Liuyun seemed to be quite protective of Qi Qiming. He knew that she seemed to be trying to ease the relationship between the father and son, however, Dongfang Liuyun was also not good at managing relationships. She did not know what she could do apart from saying some comforting words.
“Can’t you speak properly? There’s no point to being dissatisfied right now.”
Dongfang Liuyun leaned over and whispered into his ear.
Qi Lei slowed down and glanced at her.
“Speak properly.”
Dongfang Liuyun frowned slightly.
Qi Lei cleared his throat, and his expression eased up a little.
Qi Qiming turned and saw the couple whispering to each other. His dark eyes froze for a moment, and his pale face relaxed a lot.
“Let Qi Lei arrange this. He’s worried that the old mansion is too big. He and I also live in the Grand Lake Villa area. It’ll be a little lonely for you to stay there alone. Mother’s villa area is a little livelier, and it’s quite close to us. It’s easier for us to take care of you.” Dongfang Liuyun explained in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
Qi Qiming glanced deeply at Dongfang Liuyun. His gaze shifted and he sized up Qi Lei. Seeing that his gaze had been fixed on Dongfang Liuyun, he began to have some thoughts in his heart.
When he woke up, he saw Dongfang Liuyun. Everyone said that she was Qi Qiming’s daughter-in-law. She seemed to have a pretty good personality. Moreover, it looked like his son liked her very much. From the way he looked at her, he could tell.
He really did not expect that so many things had happened while he was unconscious.
He had asked his people to investigate and sort out all the missing information. He also asked w.a.n.g Chun to briefly tell him about the things that had happened during this period of time. It was roughly the same as the information he had sorted out.
There were also some fragments that occasionally appeared in his mind. It made him realize that too many things had happened during this period of time that he could not control.
Moreover, Qi Kai had already been taken over by Qi lei.
In that case, Qi Qiming seemed to be able to breathe a sigh of relief. He could slow down his pace and live a few peaceful days.
“It’s quieter over at the old residence. It’s better. You young people should have your lives too. You don’t have to worry about me.” Qi Qiming refused.
After some thought, he added, “I can take care of myself. I’m more used to the environment over there. You’re Dongfang Liuyun, so Song Siting, Lawyer Song, should be your mother, right?”
“Yes, my mother has also mentioned you.”
The reason why Qi Qiming had a slight impression of Song Siting was because Song Siting was Gu Qihao’s lawyer during the dispute between Gu Qihao and Doris.
