Chapter 1640: Cool Night (1)
Jin Sheng’s grip was very strong, so strong that even Dongfang Liuyun could feel the pain of his grip on her wrist.
“I told you to let go, don’t make me repeat myself for the third time!”
Dongfang Liuyun’s brows were tightly knitted together, and the gaze she used to look at Jin Sheng was unusually cold and stern. However, Jin Sheng’s grip was getting tighter and tighter—
“I just want a reason. Don’t you know that because of that accident, I…”
‘Mmm—”
Before he could finish his sentence, a black shadow flashed past, followed by a muffled groan.
He turned around to look at the source of the sound. Jin Sheng was already leaning against the elevator wall with a livid expression. He glared hatefully at Dongfang Liuyun, one of his hands still holding the elevator wall. His expression was quite unsightly.
He knew from before that Dongfang Liuyun was quite a skilled martial artist, she would be at a disadvantage if she went up against Fujiwara. He did not expect her to get this good already. Before he could defend himself, Dongfang Liuyun had grabbed his shoulder and pinned him against the wall, he did not have the strength to move at all.
“Jin Sheng, don’t make me lose my patience! A reason? What is a reason? I want a reason more than anyone else. The Dongfang Group has always been in turmoil. If you want to use Dongfang Rou’er to go against me, or if you have other intentions, don’t blame me for being impolite. I don’t need to do anything to handle you. If you think it’s Fujiwara, then you should go get even with him. Don’t point your gun at me! Blindly guessing will only make me want to laugh at your stupidity!”
Dongfang Liuyun’s beautiful face was filled with coldness. Her cold tone carried a hint of disdain. As she spoke, her grip grew stronger. It was so strong that Jin Sheng suspected that his shoulder would be crushed by her in the next second!
Jin Sheng’s face was so ashen that it was somewhat pale. However, he gritted his teeth and endured this heart-piercing pain. His dark eyes still endured his stubbornness as he looked at Dongfang Liuyun without making a sound.
“Why should I believe that it wasn’t you?” Jin Sheng gnashed his teeth as he spoke.
“Why? What do you think? Where did you get the confidence that I, Dongfang Liuyun, would take a fancy to you and even lay my hands on you? You think too highly of yourself. The way you consider all these things show that your level of intelligence is at a low level. In the future, it’s best that you don’t always appear in front of me like a victim. That way, at least I think of you as a man and not a wronged little woman!”
Dongfang Liuyun’s words almost made Jin Sheng vomit blood. He did not even manage to catch his breath. His entire face was flushed red as he glared hatefully at Dongfang Liuyun.
Dongfang Liuyun suddenly retracted his hand. His face was flushed red as he coughed violently and took in deep breaths.
Dongfang Liuyun glanced at him from the corner of her eyes. He was obviously in a sorry state. She retracted his gaze indifferently and opened the elevator door. Then, she walked out of the elevator.
“Dongfang Liuyun, one day, I will make you kneel under me! I will!”
As he watched Dongfang Liuyun’s figure gradually disappear into the distance, Jin Sheng endured the pain from his shoulder and supported himself against the wall of the elevator. He lowered his voice and gritted his teeth as he muttered. His dark eyes were filled with determination and coldness.
…
When he returned home, the sky had already darkened. In the blink of an eye, it was already the early evening.
Dongfang Liuyun parked her car in the garage. When he returned to the living room, he realized that there was a person sitting on the sofa in the living room—
Wang Chun?
Qi Lei’s special assistant?
There were documents all over the table in front of him. At this moment, Wang Chun was also holding a document in his hand as he looked through it with a focused expression.
Dongfang Liuyun’s gaze subconsciously swept over it, but she did not see Qi Lei. She immediately frowned and thought about it before taking off her high heels.
When he heard the movement behind him, Wang Chun instantly turned his head. When he saw Dongfang Liuyun, he immediately smiled and said, “Missus is back!”
Dongfang Liuyun nodded politely. “Busy? Where’s Qi Lei?”
“Second Master is busy in the kitchen. He said that he’ll cook tonight,” replied Wang Chun.
“Have some tea. It’s almost time to go back. There’s no need to work so hard.” Dongfang Liuyun said this politely and put down the briefcase in her hand.
“It’s fine. I’m just sitting around anyway.” Wang Chun smiled at Dongfang Liuyun.
“As you wish then. I’ll go take a look in the kitchen.”
After saying this, she turned around and walked to the kitchen.
As expected, just as she reached the door, she saw the man inside preparing the seasoning with a pair of chopsticks. He was on the phone.
Dongfang Liuyun walked over and washed her hands before reaching out to take the seasoning bowl from his hand.
“There’s still no salt and sugar.”
Qi Lei reminded her in a low voice before walking to the balcony at the side. He continued to explain things to the person on the phone. Dongfang Liuyun took over his work after that. After he finished, Dongfang Liuyun had already put the fish in the pot onto a plate.
“Why are you back so late today?” Qi Lei rolled up his sleeves and walked over as he asked.
“I ran into some trouble. It’s fine. It’s settled.”
“I see that you don’t look too good. Who offended you? Tell me about it.”
He reached out to take the spatula from her hand. He narrowed his eyes at her and continued with what he was doing.
“Didn’t you say that I don’t like showing my emotions?”
She glanced at him from the corner of her eyes. She leaned against the cabinet at the side and looked at him indifferently.
He paused for a moment and turned his head to look at her meaningfully, but he did not answer.
…
After dinner, Qi Lei and Wang Chun went upstairs to the study room. Dongfang Liuyun cleaned up the dishes tacitly too.
In the study room, Qi Lei was on the sofa while Wang Chun was sitting across from him.
Qi Lei handed the document in his hand to Wang Chun. “Let’s leave this proposal for now. The inspection team is ready as well. Make a report on the situation of the few companies in the next few days. Then, send a copy to Mu Yuchen.”
Wang Chun took the document and skimmed through it. Then, he nodded. “Okay, Second Master, don’t worry. I’ll take care of this. Oh right, I heard from Yang Sheng that you’re planning to visit the Dongfang family next month?”
Qi Lei frowned. He glanced at Wang Chun and said, “When did Yang Sheng become so talkative?”
Even if he wanted to go, it would be with Dongfang Gan and Song Siting. He did not want everyone to know about it.
“Second Master, don’t misunderstand. Yang Sheng just wanted to consult for opinion. He’s afraid that things won’t be done satisfactorily.”
“He’s quite loyal and hardworking,” Qi Lei said unhappily.
“When does Second Master plan to hold his wedding with the Missus? You’ve been married for some time. It’s about time…”
“We’ll take it slow with this, after a little while.”
He had to ask Dongfang Liuyun for her opinion too…
