Chapter 1930: Like? (3)
Fujiwara did not say anything. He merely gave Riko Inoue a cold and indifferent glance as he walked past her.
“Do you like Dongfang Liuyun so much? You can even disregard the Fujiwara family’s family business for her? Are you crazy?” Riko Inoue chased after him and asked coldly.
Fujiwara stopped walking and gave Riko Inoue a sidelong glance. He was silent for a long time before he said, “Like her?”
After muttering this sentence in a low voice, he sneered sarcastically, “What do you mean like her? My relationship with her isn’t a secret. You, Riko Inoue, aren’t that much of a fool.”
Riko Inoue naturally understood the meaning behind Fujiwara’s words, and the expression in her eyes changed unpredictably. “You’re worried that I’ll go against Dongfang Liuyun?”
“What else?” Fujiwara said coldly.
Riko Inoue sneered disapprovingly. “If I really go against her, will you fall in love with me?”
“No.”
Fujiwara’s reply was very straightforward.
Hearing this, Riko Inoue immediately smiled, “So, do you think I’m stupid enough to make you hate me? Moreover, Dongfang Liuyun is Qi Lei’s Missus Qi. I’m afraid that your chances are slim. What I need to do is to convince you to marry me. This is what we should do. It’s the best thing we can do.”
“I’ve said that I won’t marry you.” Fujiwara furrowed his handsome brows and said coldly.
“You’re talking about the past, it doesn’t represent the future. No one can say for sure what will happen in the future, so I’m very confident. You can only marry me in time to come. This is the best choice between us. And Fujiwara-kun, I won’t hide my admiration, satisfaction, and even love for you at all. I won’t give up.”
Riko Inoue had already made things clear, and her tone was exceptionally resolute.
Fujiwara paused for a moment, but he did not say anything in the end. He turned around and strode away.
Like?
What was there to like about something that was based on benefits?
Other than Dongfang Liuyun, he did not want anyone else.
Fujiwara laughed coldly in his heart. He pretended not to hear anything after that.
…
The sun was already up high. After breakfast, the better media and photography team came over. They took some videos of Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun interacting. The couple cooperated very well.
The video and interview went very smoothly and naturally. When the photographer and staff left, it was already afternoon.
Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun had gone to the kitchen to have lunch together, but after a whole morning, they were a little tired now.
“Have a cup of tea.”
On the sofa in the living room, Qi Lei was reviewing the documents in his hands when Dongfang Liuyun’s voice suddenly came from the side. Before he could react, the faint fragrance of tea filled the air.
Qi Lei suddenly raised his head. Dongfang Liuyun had already handed him a cup of hot tea. Then, she picked up a wet towel and continued to work.
Qi Lei frowned. He took a sip of the tea and said, “Can’t you just get the part-time worker to clean it up?”
“There’s no need. It’s good to clean it up occasionally.”
Dongfang Liuyun responded, but her hands did not stop moving. “Go do what you need to do. I’ll clean it up. It’s a little messy.”
Dongfang Liuyun was a methodical person. Occasionally, she would tidy up her own home and did not like to hire hourly workers.
“Aren’t you going to the office in the afternoon?” Qi Lei asked.
“No. I’ll accompany you at home.” Dongfang Liuyun replied.
Hearing this, Qi Lei was a little surprised. He raised his handsome eyebrows. “What’s wrong with you?”
“I’m very normal. I’ll accompany you at home today.”
Dongfang Liuyun listened to Qi Lei’s surprised tone and replied kindly.
“That’s rare. Is there anything I can help you with?” Qi Lei thought about it and asked. He did not think that Dongfang Liuyun was just simply accompanying him at home. The company was very busy.
“Yes, I hope you can put away your petty heart.” Dongfang Liuyun replied without any courtesy, “Vice President Zhang just came back this morning. I shouldn’t be as busy as before, so I have more time to stay at home. You’ve been quite busy recently. I don’t see you at home. Is there anything that I can help you with?”
Although he did not have much business contact with his company, they had been married for so long, and Qi Lei had never been able to avoid her at work. On the contrary, he would sometimes discuss with her and exchange views appropriately, the husband and wife often talked about work. They knew a little about each other’s company situation, especially for a certain hot project, they could help each other out where needed.
Qi Lei raised his eyebrows. After thinking for a while, he handed her another document, “Since you’re so enthusiastic, I won’t let you down. This is the proposal submitted by the Jin family. What do you think of the execution? The Jin family plans to give me a share.”
Qi Lei did not hide it at all.
Dongfang Liuyun was stunned. Looking at the document Qi Lei handed over, she was a little surprised—
This matter…
“You have the final say on this matter. Do you think it’s good for me to agree or not?”
“They can’t get the land, so they plan to make you a shareholder?” Dongfang Liuyun asked. She had some admiration for the methods of the Jin family and Dongfang Ren. They could actually think of such a move.
“Missus is smart!” Qi Lei praised generously, “They plan to give me 5% of the shares.”
“Are there such good deals?”
Dongfang Liuyun was a little surprised.
“They don’t have a better way either. However, this proposal seems to be done well. Vice President Wang Chun is somewhat interested.” Qi Lei said simply.
“That’s true. The current situation doesn’t affect them very well. After Lin Yuanyuan left the company, it’s inconvenient for Dongfang Ren to handle many things. It’s the same for Dongfang Yi. Both parties suffered heavy losses. They need a project to stabilize their position in the company. Now that Jin Sheng and Dongfang Rou’er are getting married at the end of the year, we can take advantage of this time to improve our performance.”
Dongfang Liuyun thought for a moment before saying this. She took the document in Qi Lei’s hand and sat down next to him. She flipped through it and started reading.
…
“I’ve already discussed this with another developer. If it’s possible, I would like to invite your Dongfang Group to conspire together for a big plan. However, I hope that you’ll be in charge of this project.”
Qi Lei looked up at her with interest as he spoke.
