Chapter 2024: She Cried (4)
“Missus, Ah Fei found information about Master Qi. He was also shot in the chest and fell into the river. Our people searched for a long time, but we still couldn’t find Master Qi and the others… Ah Fei said that Master Qi was probably doomed. Ah Quan, who was sent by Master Mu, also said that he was pessimistic about the situation…”
Dongfang Liuyun felt as if warm blood was gushing into her chest. She felt something turn in her throat for a while, and her mouth began to fill with a b.l.o.o.d.y taste.
With a whoosh, she hurriedly reached out to cover her mouth, and a b.l.o.o.d.y and hot breath fell into the tissue in her palm. The bright red color was especially shocking.
“Missus, what’s wrong?”
When he heard an abnormality on the other side, Yang Sheng on the other end was also worried to the extreme, he hurriedly voice out of concern.
Dongfang Liuyun violently coughed a few times, laboriously forced himself to swallow the b.l.o.o.d.y taste in her mouth, eased herself for a long time, then weakly replied, “It’s all right… keep looking. If he’s alive, I want to see him. If he’s dead, I want to see his body… Increase the manpower. Find him. You must find him…”
“Yes, Missus…”
…
After hanging up the phone, Dongfang Liuyun lost all his strength, her whole body was trembling, and she kept panting…
“Manager Yun!”
Secretary Ding also rushed over with a choked sob, supporting her to sit down by the railing at the side.
“Are you okay? Manager Yun, oh my G.o.d, you… You vomited blood!”
Secretary Ding looked at the trace of blood at the corner of Dongfang Liuyun’s mouth in shock. She did not miss the bright red tissue in her hand.
Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes were filled with confusion. Of course, most of them were filled with hidden pain and confusion…
Her face was very pale, and there was not a trace of blood on her indifferent lips.
Dongfang Liuyun did not answer Secretary Ding. She only closed her eyes and quietly calmed down. A moment later, she opened her eyes again. At this time, her starry eyes had already regained their calmness. However, in that calmness, there was already a trace of deathly stillness that was as cold as autumn water. Secretary Ding looked at it and felt even more pained and uncomfortable.
“Go and help Aunt Cai deal with Grandmother’s funeral. There are quite a lot of things going on these days, and things in the company aren’t peaceful either. Everyone can’t be distracted.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s faint and weak voice sounded. He paused for a moment before continuing, “Grandmother liked to be quiet when she was alive. A simpler funeral would have been fine. She and Grandfather are close, so let’s bury them together.”
As Dongfang Liuyun spoke, he coughed twice and turned his head to look at the sky outside. Secretary Ding handed her a piece of tissue. She slowly took it and wiped away the remaining blood at the corner of her mouth.
“Manager Yun, I’m sorry for your loss.”
Secretary Ding could only say so.
Dongfang Liuyun nodded and suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly. “Tell me, how powerful can a person be?”
Secretary Ding…
She did not seem to care about Secretary Ding’s answer. As she said that, Dongfang Liuyun suddenly turned around and walked into the corridor in a daze.
A cool breeze accompanied by a faint cold rain blew over. It blew her hair behind her and the corners of her clothes fluttered. All of this looked bleak and desolate.
…
In the President’s Office of Fuhua Real Estate.
Xi Xiaye sat at her desk and read the doc.u.ments in her hands. On the sofa opposite her, Mu Yuchen was hugging Mu Xiaocheng who had fallen asleep. He carefully placed him on the soft sofa and carefully covered him with a thin blanket, Mu Xiaocheng also fell asleep quietly.
The little guy played for the whole morning. He had a full lunch and played with Mu Yuchen for a while before he finally fell asleep.
“Are you asleep?”
When she saw Mu Yuchen get up, Xi Xiaye looked over as well.
Mu Yuchen walked over and poured her a gla.s.s of water.
“Mmm, after playing for the whole morning, the little guy is quite energetic.”
“Little kid, I feel tired even after playing with him. I didn’t think he could be so tiring, but fortunately, if you ignore him, he won’t bother you. Mother said that his personality is like when you were young.”
Xi Xiaye’s gaze was filled with gentleness as she looked at her son who had already fallen asleep on the sofa, “Xiao Rui and Wei’er are having their final exams this Friday. If you have time tonight, help them prepare. See if there are any questions that they can’t understand. Help them take a look.”
“When do you need to worry about Xiao Rui’s homework? It’s not like he has to do well every time. Just try your best. Being first or second isn’t that important.”
Mu Yuchen said nonchalantly, “Sometimes, I even hope that he’ll fail a few times. That way, I can remind him to be cautious and modest.”
When she heard this, Xi Xiaye frowned and glanced at Mu Yuchen. “I won’t allow you to use your methods to undermine your son’s self-confidence. Those things can be slowly accepted by him.”
“Didn’t we agree before that the children’s education is under my control? Xi Xiaye, with your att.i.tude, it’s most likely that a loving mother will cause more harm than good. In the future, when it comes to educating children, you only have the right to remain silent.”
Mu Yuchen’s tone was very serious.
Xi Xiaye’s face darkened. Just as she was about to refute him, the phone in Mu Yuchen’s pocket started ringing. Mu Yuchen quickly picked it up
It was a call from Li Si.
“Master, it’s not good. Ms. Dongfang’s side is really full of misfortunes. President Shu from the Dongfang Group just left… Also, there’s news from Myanmar. According to reliable sources, Master Qi was also shot and fell into the river. Our people followed along and fished in the river to secretly investigate nearby, but we didn’t find any traces of Master Qi. Ah Quan said that it’s most likely going to be a disaster…”
Li Si’s voice was grave.
When Mu Yuchen heard this, his handsome face changed several times, and his dark eyes were soon filled with a hint of worry
“We haven’t found him yet. Don’t come to a conclusion yet. Increase the intensity of the search. No matter what, we must find him.”
Qi Lei…
He definitely cannot encounter any misfortune, or else…
Mu Yuchen did not think further. He only felt a sudden sense of depression in his heart.
“Yes, Master! Then, what about Miss Dongfang’s side? Once the news of President Shu’s death is released, the Dongfang Group will undoubtedly suffer even more.”
Even Li Si felt extremely anxious.
Mu Yuchen held the corner of the table and was silent for a moment before replying, “What’s the situation on Dongfang Gan’s end?”
“He’s still unconscious. His fever just subsided this morning. His condition has stabilized for a while now.”
“Find the best doctor. Make sure Dongfang Gan gets through this safely. Take care of the Dongfang family at the right time.”
“Yes, Master!” Li Si answered, and Mu Yuchen hung up as well.
“Did something happen on Qi Lei’s end?”
Xi Xiaye was unusually sensitive about this matter as well, so she asked directly.
