When Qi Lei said this, Dongfang Shuman’s withered hand suddenly tightened. This sentence could not help but appear in her mind. Elder Dongfang’s familiar and distant face suddenly became clear in front of her eyes.
Back then, Elder Dongfang seemed to have said something similar to her. And it was precisely because he said it so firmly that she married him without any hesitation.
Only more and not less?
Who wanted more and not less? Oftentimes, they only wanted a true love. When some feelings get put into reality, the many things that need to be considered make it all complicated.
She had no qualms about it back then, and later on, Elder Dongfang had spent his entire life to prove the promise he had made to her back then. All these years had been ups and downs. She had forgotten the promise he had made back then, but he never forgot his original intentions.
And now, Qi Lei had said the same thing to her, Dongfang Shuman’s granddaughter…
What surprised her even more was that when he talked about Fujiwara, he could remain so calm.
“You know, right now, I can see her grandfather’s shadow in you. Back then, he said the same thing as you too. He used his entire life to prove this to me. I might not be able to see it through if you, Qi Lei, can do it too.”
Dongfang Shuman lowered her eyes and quietly drank the tea in her cup.
“Grandmother will live a long and healthy life and be able to witness our relationship.”
Qi Lei noticed the gloominess in Dongfang Shuman’s eyes. He thought about it and consoled her like that.
“I’m not an unenlightened person. Now that things have come to this, you can be considered sensible to have come here in person. I thought Liuyun would bring you to me.”
“Grandmother, don’t blame her. She’s always been protective of me, but she doesn’t want me to face these awkward times. I know what she’s thinking.”
“You two are really in sync. I’ve seen her defend someone like this before.”
Dongfang Shuman took a deep breath. As she said this, she slowly stood up and took the cane with one hand—
“You’re a good person. It’s good that you can protect her. I know that Song Siting won’t let you off either. She’s always been like that. Ah Gan is more sensible.”
After Dongfang Shuman said this, her thin figure walked towards the door.
Qi Lei watched Dongfang Shuman’s figure gradually disappear at the door. Then, a meaningful smile appeared on his lips—
Father-in-law is more sensible?
Is she reminding me of something?
Previously, he had heard Dongfang Liuyun say that Dongfang Shuman and Song Siting did not have a good relationship. He did not want it to be so obvious now. Song Siting’s relationship with Dongfang Shuman was really a quite…
“Master Qi, how was it?”
Before Qi Lei could think of anything, Yang Sheng’s voice had already reached him.
Only then did Qi Lei retract his thoughts. He raised his eyes to look at Yang Sheng. After thinking for a moment, he said, “The gifts that I prepared can be sent over.”
“Gifts? A gift for Elder Madam Dongfang? Will she accept it? From the look on her face when she walked out just now, she seemed very…” Yang Sheng said hesitantly.
“Don’t worry, just send it over. She won’t reject it.”
Qi Lei’s tone was very certain, and his eyes were flowing with a faint light. He seemed to be in a good mood.
“Won’t reject it? Master Qi, do you mean that Elder Madam Dongfang has accepted you and Missus?”
A look of joy flashed across Yang Sheng’s face.
“As long as she doesn’t object, it’s a good thing for me that she won’t interfere. Alright, let’s go back to the company.”
After Qi Lei said these two words, he slowly stood up.
“Ah? Master Qi, do you mean that Elder Madam Dongfang hasn’t agreed to the matter between you and Missus?”
Yang Sheng exclaimed.
Qi Lei glanced at him.
Yang Sheng subconsciously covered his mouth and looked at Qi Lei in confusion. Seeing him stride past him, he followed—
“Master Qi, how could she accept that gift? I heard that Elder Madam Dongfang is a very strict person. No one in the entire Dongfang Group disagrees with her. She’s the real iron hand. Even Dongfang Ren and Dongfang Yi respect her very much. It’s really too difficult to do this. Do you know that Dongfang Ren and Dongfang Yi are…”
As Qi Lei walked ahead, Yang Sheng’s voice came from behind him.
…
When Qi Lei walked out, Dongfang Shuman’s car was long gone. The surroundings were also quiet. The driver drove the car over, and he got straight into the car. Yang Sheng followed closely behind.
“Master Qi, the hospital called just now. They said that President Qi seems to be waking up. There’s been new developments with the brain examination.”
Yang Sheng suddenly thought of this matter.
When he heard this, Qi Lei, who had just closed his eyes to rest, was stunned. He suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Yang Sheng—
“What did you say?”
Yang Sheng coughed lightly and said, “Missus went to see President Qi this morning. She asked the doctor to do another examination of President Qi’s brain. Only then did she discover something. If his condition is stable, there’s hope for President Qi to wake up!”
Yang Sheng smiled, but his eyes were cautious—
He was not sure what kind of attitude Qi Lei had towards Qi Qiming. Missus was rather calm. Although she knew what Qi Qiming had done to Qi Lei, she did not seem to blame him, she also considered Qi Lei’s feelings.
“What did the doctor say?”
Qi Lei asked in a deep voice. It was not difficult to catch the urgency in his tone.
“Doctor Liang said that the situation is pretty good. Sje called just now. The Missus should still be at the hospital.”
Yang Sheng replied.
“Go straight to the hospital.”
Qi Lei gave the order as well.
“Okay, Master Qi!”
The car started very quickly.
…
In Qi Qiming’s ward at the hospital.
Dongfang Liuyun was dressed in a crimson windbreaker. She stood silently beside Qi Qiming’s bed. The nurse beside him was helping Qi Qiming with the injection.
“Missus, don’t worry. Recently, President Qi’s recovery has been good. This checkup was done on time. If there are any changes, Doctor Liang will record it.”
The special nurse at the side saw that Dongfang Liuyun had been frowning, so she comforted him.
“Mmm, I understand. I’ll let you guys worry over here then. Your Master Qi won’t mistreat you.” Dongfang Liuyun also replied.
“Alright, Missus, don’t worry. Everything will be fine. Master Qi also comes to visit often. I think President Qi won’t have the heart to continue sleeping like this.”
“I’ve done everything I can. For the rest, I can only leave it to fate. Alright, I’ll go back first. If anything comes up, call me again.”
Dongfang Liuyun said indifferently.
“Alright, Missus!”
As the nurse’s voice fell, Dongfang Liuyun also walked towards the door of the ward.
