He was also afraid that his connection with her would break. When he almost could not hold on any longer, he vaguely realized something—
If he died, she might still be able to hold on. Fujiwara and Lan Xiu were both decent people, but if she was pregnant with his child, then with her character, she would probably be persisting all the way.
He could not bear that for her, so he did not dare to die.
After hearing this news, his heart calmed down a lot.
He turned his head and looked at the fireworks that were still blooming outside. He suddenly missed her very much…
…
w.a.n.g Xun did not allow him to get out of bed. For a few days, he had been letting him rest in bed. Only after the doctor came to check and said that he could exercise properly, did he allow the bodyguards to occasionally help him out for a walk.
w.a.n.g Xun did not allow him to contact City Z either. Moreover, Qi Lei knew that Qi Qiming and Yang Sheng were waiting for news of him in Singapore, but w.a.n.g Xun did not let him.
He knew that this was also because w.a.n.g Xun wanted him to rest well.
The relationship between him and his uncle was not that deep, but w.a.n.g Xun was very good to him. Perhaps it was because he loved w.a.n.g Qin. Qi Lei had always been very clear about w.a.n.g Xun’s feelings for w.a.n.g Qin.
Qi Lei had once thought that perhaps it was better for w.a.n.g Qin to have been with w.a.n.g Xun than to suffer with Qi Qiming for the rest of her life.
After the rain a few days ago, the air was much better. The weather was very warm now.
It was considered a tropical area. He could not feel the cold in City Z, and he did not know how she was doing!
He had been trying to contact Dongfang Liuyun for the past few days, but…
“What are you thinking about?”
Under the flower rack in the backyard of the villa, Qi Lei was deep in thought when a deep voice suddenly came from behind him.
Qi Lei quickly turned his head and saw w.a.n.g Xun standing silently with his hands behind his back, looking at him.
Qi Lei had not fully recovered. If someone had not helped him, he would not have been able to walk. His leg had been hit when he fell into the river, and he had not recovered yet. Fortunately, his muscles and bones were not injured, or else…
His face was still pale. He had lost too much blood before he was saved. Naturally, he had not fully recovered yet.
“How is Liuyun?”
w.a.n.g Xun had suddenly become very busy these few days. It was probably because there were too many things piling up in the company. He was in a rush to deal with them.
Every time he came over, Qi Lei would ask about Dongfang Liuyun.
“How are you? Are you feeling better today?”
w.a.n.g Xun did not answer his question. Instead, he greeted him with concern. He was more concerned about his recovery.
Qi Lei retracted his gaze and lowered his eyes. He replied faintly, “I’m much better. I want to return to City Z in two days. I’m really worried about her being alone there.”
He had roughly heard about Dongfang Liuyun over the past few days. He did not dare to imagine how much pressure she was under.
“You can only leave after a month. I won’t let you make a joke of your health. Those things are just worldly possessions. If she really cares about you and loves you, she will definitely choose to do so.”
w.a.n.g Xun walked over and sat down beside him.
“She can’t handle it alone.”
“So what if you go back? Are you worried about those things? You should take care of yourself first. It’s been quite stable for a while, she only went to work after a few days, there hasn’t been many changes,” said w.a.n.g Xun.
“When is the shareholders’ meeting scheduled for Dongfang Group?”
Qi Lei ignored w.a.n.g Xun and asked himself.
w.a.n.g Xun, on the other hand, gave him a deep look. He not only felt a wave of emotion in his heart, but he sighed. “You’re just like your mother, Xiao Lei! What’s so good about that Qi Kai! You might as well stay here and have less trouble!”
“Thank you for your kind intentions, Uncle. I like it there,” Qi Lei replied indifferently.
w.a.n.g Xun took a deep breath and looked at Qi Lei with a gentle gaze. His tone was very low—
“Xiao Lei, you know that I don’t have a son or a daughter. I have always treated you as my child, and you should have been my child too. Back then, your mother was worried that you would be wronged and wanted to send you back to the w.a.n.g family. She wanted to put you under my name and make you my son.”
“That’s all in the past. Don’t worry, Uncle. Liuyun and I will take care of you.”
Qi Lei’s eyes darkened as he said, “You haven’t told me about Liuyun’s situation.”
“You… She’s very good. Recently, she’s been holding up Tai Yu Corporation for you. There aren’t any major problems on your side, but it might not be the case on Dongfang Group’s side. The shareholders’ meeting has already been confirmed to be rescheduled to the 15th of the first lunar month. Dongfang Yi strongly requested it.”
w.a.n.g Xun finally could not hold on any longer, so he still explained to Qi Lei.
Qi Lei listened and only paused for a moment. There was no expression on his face. Instead, he took out something that looked like an amulet from his pocket. He tore open the packaging on the outside and took out a USB flash drive from inside, throwing it to w.a.n.g Xun.
w.a.n.g Xun quickly reached out to take it. He glanced at the USB flash drive and then turned to look at Qi Lei. His eyes were filled with doubt.
Qi Lei explained quietly, “This is the internal information of the Dongfang Group. It contains evidence that Dongfang Ren bribed officials to keep women. Dongfang Yi established a company in his own name to evade taxes. There is also evidence of Dongfang Rou’er meeting Mr. Ge in private.”
Qi Lei paused when he said this. w.a.n.g Xun’s face was immediately filled with surprise—
“You actually have these things!”
“I had people investigate for a long time. I didn’t have enough evidence before, so I didn’t want to alert them. After I came to Myanmar, I met Mr. Ge and got some evidence. That was the only way to be considered complete,” Qi Lei replied, his dark eyes flashing with coldness.
“You must help me deliver it to Liuyun as quickly as possible. With it, none of them will be able to escape from Dongfang Group’s shareholders’ meeting. I want Liuyun to successfully take over Dongfang Group.”
Qi Lei’s calm tone was filled with determination.
w.a.n.g Xun was stunned for a moment. He looked at him deeply and suddenly seemed to understand something. He smiled and held the USB in his hand, “I was wondering why you needed to come personally? Apart from me, it’s more because of this, right? Or is it because of your father-in-law?”
Qi Lei did not answer. He only glanced back at him.
w.a.n.g Xun shook his head helplessly. His expression was a little desolate.
Qi Lei knew that he was most likely thinking of w.a.n.g Qin again!
Only when he thought of w.a.n.g Qin would his uncle have such an expression.
“Alright, I’ll deliver this safely to Dongfang Liuyun. Qi Qiming is in Singapore right now. He’s certain that you’re here with me. It seems like he’s quite anxious to see you, his son.”
