“Be patient.”
That was all Dongfang Liuyun said to him. The two of them walked unhurriedly to the backyard.
The scenery in the backyard was great. Previously, Qi Lei knew that Dongfang Liuyun would occasionally play some music, so he specially arranged a room in the backyard with a few musical instruments for Dongfang Liuyun to play.
Qi Lei did not expect that Dongfang Liuyun would bring him to this room.
“Why are we here?”
Standing at the door, the doubt in Qi Lei’s eyes became even stronger. He fixed his gaze on Dongfang Liuyun and asked.
Dongfang Liuyun raised her eyebrows and smiled at him indifferently. Then, she slowly let go of him and pushed the door open to enter.
Qi Lei paused. He watched as her figure disappeared through the door, but he did not follow her in until he heard the elegant sound of a piano playing…
Qi Lei could not help but be stunned.
He did not remember Dongfang Liuyun playing the piano before, and it was obvious that this familiar tune must have been played by her.
Qi Lei was in a daze for a moment. He quickly walked forward and looked over to the sound of the music. Indeed, he saw Dongfang Liuyun sitting quietly in front of the piano by the window. Her ten fingers were skillfully playing the black and white piano keys.
The winter sun outside the window had already shone in diagonally. It landed on her without any deviation. In the light of the setting sun, she was as elegant and indifferent as when he first met her—
She wore a long white blouse, and her long hair hung down. Her eyes were as clear as water.
The tune was an oldie, but it was very pleasant to listen to.
“Valderfields.”
Hher soft singing voice too—
Previously, he had heard it played in her car.
Her singing was very pleasant. Although he always heard her say that she could not sing well, now it seemed that he did not think that those professional singers were any better than her. At the very least, he was very moved by her as he looked at her.
The smile on Qi Lei’s lips slowly widened. He simply leaned against the door frame and looked at her calmly while listening.
Dongfang Liuyun played and sang as she subconsciously looked up at him. The smile on her beautiful face was very brilliant.
At this moment, Qi Lei had to admit that her appearance made his soul tremble.
When the song was finished, Qi Lei did not calm down for a long time. After an unknown period of time, he slowly opened his eyes. When he lowered his gaze to look at her, he realized that she was also sitting there, quietly looking at him.
He laughed softly and suddenly walked over. He reached out to touch her head and sat down beside her. He stretched out his slender fingers and placed them on the black and white piano keys in front of him. A string of beautiful music was heard again—
It was the song that Dongfang Liuyun had just played.
He did not play any worse than her. Dongfang Liuyun enjoyed listening to it. She lowered her eyes and smiled. When the music stopped, she looked up and turned her head to look at him. Seeing his calm expression, she suddenly turned her head, kissed the corner of his mouth gently, like a dragonfly skimming the water. She quickly moved away and smiled, “Your reward.”
“So precious?”
Qi Lei smiled. Clearly, he was very satisfied with her reward.
“Mr. Qi Lei, are you willing to date me? To be my boyfriend?”
Dongfang Liuyun blinked her clear eyes and looked at him without blinking. She asked very seriously.
Qi Lei’s handsome brows were raised high. He could not react to Dongfang Liuyun’s words. After a long while, he held her hand and smiled, “Of course, it’s my honor. However, I’m not too satisfied with this relationship. Why not husband? Aren’t we already married?”
“Don’t you want to enjoy the feeling of being chased by me?” Dongfang Liuyun smiled.
Qi Lei smiled in surprise before nodding. “Of course. However, I’m afraid that I’ll directly agree to it if you just ask.”
“Then can’t you be a little more pretentious?” Dongfang Liuyun said with a slight frown.
“It depends on your performance, Ms. Dongfang.” Qi Lei answered very cooperatively.
“Well, do I have the honor to have dinner with you tonight? I’ll take you to the beach and bring you to eat something delicious.” Dongfang Liuyun said seductively.
“Really?”
Mr. Qi Lei’s eyes instantly lit up. He smiled cooperatively and said, “If it’s not expensive or high-end, I won’t go.”
“Would I make you suffer?”
Dongfang Liuyun glanced at him and reached out to fix his slightly wrinkled jacket. “Finish the documents first. We’ll go out later and see if there are any good movies that have recently been released.”
Qi Lei nodded happily. “I’ll go with your arrangements then.”
Dongfang Liuyun suddenly smiled. She slowly stood up and reached out to him.
Qi Lei very straightforwardly handed his hand to her.
Dongfang Liuyun then pulled him up and returned to the living room. Qi Lei was very obedient all the way as he let her hold his hand.
“Master, Missus, President Shu is Here!”
The couple held hands. They had just turned the corridor and were about to walk into the room when the butler’s voice suddenly came from behind them. The couple paused and immediately exchanged a look. Then, they turned their gaze and looked down the stairs, as expected, they saw Dongfang Shuman slowly walking towards them with Ah Cai accompanying her.
Those sharp eyes subconsciously sized up Dongfang Liuyun’s two hands that were entangled together. The light in her eyes flashed.
“Greetings, Grandmother!”
Qi Lei was the first to react. He gently knocked on Dongfang Liuyun’s arm. Dongfang Liuyun recovered from her daze and said calmly, “Grandmother.”
Dongfang Shuman secretly sized them up and nodded.
“Fourth Lady, Fourth Son-in-law!”
Ah Cai also greeted them respectfully.
Qi Lei nodded modestly and said, “It’s cold outside. Grandmother, Auntie Cai, come in and sit.”
The group then walked into the house.
Dongfang Shuman briefly sized up the Grand Lake Villa area. She was quite satisfied with this place. When she saw the couple holding hands just now, she felt much more at ease.
“Grandmother, Auntie Cai, have some tea.”
Qi Lei made tea politely. Dongfang Liuyun sat across from Dongfang Shuman. She was secretly guessing Dongfang Shuman’s intentions for coming over today.
“You can sit too.”
Dongfang Shuman took the tea and took a simple sip. Her old voice could be heard.
Qi Lei nodded and sat down next to Dongfang Liuyun. “How’s Grandmother’s health these days?”
Dongfang Shuman’s aged face softened a little when she heard the concerned greetings. “It’s nothing serious. I’ll be fine as long as I get some rest. I haven’t seen you two come back for a visit these past few days, so I came to visit you.”
