Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The sky gradually darkened. The autumn rain that had lasted for a few days had stopped slightly, but the ground was still very wet.
It was Su Chen who drove. Qi Lei sat in his car, and the two friends went straight to Emperor Entertainment City.
Qi Lei and Su Chen had been frequent visitors here before. After Glory World Corporation’s Imperial Sky Entertainment City opened for business, their base of operations shifted to that side, but they were still esteemed guests here today.
When they arrived at Emperor, the sky had already turned dark. The entire city was once again enveloped by a large expanse of dazzling lights. This was also the beginning of sleepless city.
The two friends did not look for a private room. Instead, they found a corner to sit down and ordered some good wine and food.
There was a band playing on the small stage in front of them. It was not ear-splitting music, but a very soothing song.
Qi Lei took the wine and poured a glass for Su Chen before pouring it for himself. His deep voice rang out, “What has Zimo been doing recently? I haven’t seen him come out for a long time.”
He did not forget to show his concern for Zhou Zimo. After his relationship with Dongfang Liuyun was announced, Zhou Zimo quickly expressed his blessings publicly. It was obvious that he was pointing out the relationship between the two buddies, it was obvious that he was on Qi Lei’s side.
Qi Lei was naturally grateful for this.
“He’s busy chasing women. Let’s call him out another day. I just called him. He’s having dinner with his girlfriend tonight.”
When Su Chen mentioned this, he felt that it was a little strange.
“Girlfriend?”
Qi Lei raised his brows as he held his wine and looked at Su Chen. “He really has one?”
“He really does!”
Su Chen’s tone was unusually certain.
“Who?”
Qi Lei was a little puzzled. For someone like Zhou Zimo, what type of woman would he fancy?
“You wouldn’t know her even if I told you. She’s a female officer who went on missions with me in the army. She’s very skilled and she’s saved Zimo once. I think it’s precisely because of this that Zimo’s been thinking about her. Now, he’s planning to give himself to her.”
Su Chen smiled. Of course, he did not know the truth that Zhou Zimo had revealed to Mu Yuchen before. Otherwise, he would have been even more shocked.
“Give himself to her?”
Qi Lei smiled calmly and took a sip of his wine. Then, he smiled. “That doesn’t seem like something he would do. Hearing you say that, I’m a little curious about this woman.”
“She’s a powerful character. She’s probably similar to your family’s character, but I’m afraid that Qin Su…”
When Su Chen said this, he glanced meaningfully at Qi Lei.
Qi Lei raised his brows and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp. “Let’s gossip again the next time we meet.”
“From what I remember, you’re not that fond of gossip. Oh, I went to the Mu family’s old residence this morning. Ah Chen said that you went there before too?”
“Mmm, I heard that Grandfather Mu isn’t doing good, so I went over to take a look. is he feeling better?”
When Qi Lei mentioned this, his eyes could not help but darken—
When he went over before, he knew that Mu Yinan’s condition was not great. Even when Mu Yuchen mentioned it, he could not hide his sadness.
“He’s still the same. Ah Chen said that he probably won’t be able to hold on much longer.”
Su Chen’s dark eyes were gloomy, and his tone was much heavier. “Grandfather Mu practically watched us grow up. Back then, Grandfather Mu spent a lot of effort to discipline us. When I heard this news, I felt a little…”
“He’s a very amiable person and also a wise man, but unfortunately…”
“Grandfather Mu’s life experience is also very legendary. His feelings for Grandmother Mu are very deep. You also know that ever since Grandmother Mu left, his heart has also become empty. My grandfather also often said that Grandfather Mu has not being doing well emotionally.”
“Alright, take some time to go over and take a look. Do your best. If there’s nothing you can do, come and drink!”
At this point, Su Chen did not want to continue. He could only sigh to himself.
Qi Lei had already poured him some wine.
“I see that you’ve lost a lot of weight these days.”
“Zitong’s reaction is quite big. The doctor said that the first few months are a little tougn. You’ll go through the same thing in the future. Oh right, you’ve been married to Dongfang Liuyun for a while now, no plans to have a child yet?”
“We’ll let nature take its course. What, are you worried about others now that you’re a father-to-be?”
Qi Lei narrowed his eyes at Su Chen and teased.
“I wanted to remind you that it’s about time.”
“You should keep this for Zimo. I’m not in a hurry. The two of us haven’t had enough of each other yet.”
Qi Lei smiled.
Su Chen glanced sideways at him as if he suddenly realized something. He turned his gaze and looked in the direction of Qi Lei’s gaze. Only then did he realize that there were two handsome men sitting beside their cubicle. From the looks of it, they seemed to have extraordinary looks as well.
“Do you know them?”
Su Chen asked Qi Lei in a low voice.
Qi Lei reacted quickly and lowered his eyes. “I know one of them. He’s Lan Xiu, Liuyun’s good friend.”
Yes, the two people next to him were Lan Xiu and Fujiwara.
He really did not expect to meet them here. Qi Lei immediately knew the identity of the man sitting next to Lan Xiu—
He had handsome and exquisite facial features, a reserved and deep temperament, and a noble and extraordinary aura. With one look, one could tell that he was not just any mediocre person.
As Qi Lei was sizing up Fujiwara, Fujiwara stared at Qi Lei without blinking. Lan Xiu was also silently observing the two of them.
Qi Lei?
Why was he here?
Lan Xiu was naturally a little surprised.
“Is he Qi Lei?”
Before Lan Xiu could react, Fujiwara’s quiet voice came from the side.
When he heard this, Lan Xiu abruptly retracted his gaze and looked at Fujiwara. Only then did he realize that Fujiwara had already retracted his gaze and was casually drinking his wine.
“Yes, Qi Lei. Previously, he was the Second Master of the Qi family. Now, he’s the young CEO of Tai Yu Corporation. His status in City Z is very high. The person beside him should be Su Chen, the Master of the Su family. He’s also the Vice Chief of the Traffic Control Bureau. He’s famous in City Z and has got quite an influence in City Z. You should have seen the news a few days ago. Otherwise, those things wouldn’t have caused such a big stir.”
Lan Xiu explained simply.
“Liuyun hasn’t been willing to pick up the phone these few days. I think it’s mainly because of this matter to avoid suspicion. Actually, I don’t know much about her and Qi lei, but she’s very protective of Qi Lei. Based on the previous situation, Qi Lei treats Liuyun pretty well. At first I thought that he was just…”
Lan Xiu did not continue, because he noticed that Fujiwara’s handsome face was a little tense, and his eyes were…
