Chapter 1964: Fight For Herself (1)
Qi Lei lowered his voice slightly and probed softly.
Dongfang Liuyun listened and raised her beautiful brows. She looked at him fixedly. After a moment, she smiled happily. “Are you really that capable?”
Qi Lei replied with a mysterious smile. His gaze fell on the information in front of him again. “If I say that I do, would you believe it?”
“Of course I believe you.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes lit up. She looked at him with some anticipation. “Are you really that confident?”
“How would I know if I don’t try?”
As Qi Lei said this, he lowered his head and continued to get busy. “Is the plan very rushed?”
“Yes, I have to give it to Lan Xiu tomorrow morning because he still needs some time to deal with it.” Dongfang Liuyun replied.
Qi Lei was silent for a moment. He saved the document, then closed his laptop and looked at her, “Then hurry up and pack up. I know you’ve been very tired these two days, so I’ll take you out for a walk while it’s still early today. The beach is quite quiet at this time. The weather has been pretty good these two days, so you can bask in the sun. I’ll help you deal with it at night.”
Seeing the fatigue hidden between her brows, he naturally could not bear it.
“Go to the beach? Over at the resort?”
Dongfang Liuyun looked at him in surprise, a little surprised by his sudden suggestion.
“Yes, let’s go over there. Previously, I had a partnership with the developer over there, and there was a small house left over at the resort. It’s quite quiet, and the environment is quite good. I think that place should be very suitable for you now. Just treat it as a quiet environment. It’ll be quiet for a while and we can finish it.”
Qi Lei closed the laptop in his hand and handed it to her.
Dongfang Liuyun thought for a moment before nodding and taking it. “Alright then. Go back and get our clothes?”
“There’s no need. Didn’t the lounge prepare a few sets for you? Just bring them over. Wait here, I’ll go in and tidy up.”
As soon as Qi Lei finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the lounge in front of him.
Dongfang Liuyun quietly put away the documents. Not long after, the couple left the office.
On the way to the seaside resort, Dongfang Liuyun was driving. Yang Sheng had prepared Qi Lei’s driver’s license, but it has not been returned to him yet. Moreover, it was near the end of the year, and the traffic police were very strict. To be on the safe side, Dongfang Liuyun naturally did not dare to let him drive.
“Your driver’s license may only be back in a few days. Don’t be so rash next time. This matter is not a joke. I just called the hospital and asked about it, they said that Father’s current condition is recovering well and there aren’t too many problems. If there’s no other problems, I’ll bring him home in a few days. What do you think?”
From Wang Chun, Dongfang Liuyun knew that Qi Lei had not been to the hospital in the past two days. Qi Qiming had been asking about him several times. It seemed that ever since Qi Qiming woke up and found out that he had such a son, he was a little surprised, however, he was very attentive to him.
After Dongfang Liuyun said this, she did not hear Qi Lei reply. When she turned to look at him, she realized that he was resting with his eyes closed.
“What’s wrong?” Dongfang Liuyun slowed down slightly and asked.
“You’re quite focused on this matter.”
Qi Lei’s low and slow voice sounded.
“He’s your father.”
Dongfang Liuyun silently stated this fact.
“I know the relationship between him and me better than anyone else. Don’t worry, I didn’t think too much about it. I’ve already sent the original butler over. He’ll be discharged from the hospital in two days,” Qi Lei replied unhurriedly.
“You’ve been quite troubled lately. I think I’m not the only one who needs to relax.”
Dongfang Liuyun glanced at him worriedly, “Isn’t everything going well now? Why do you have to think too much? I know that you might not feel good about what happened to me, but if we trust each other, these problems won’t be a problem anymore.”
“Not everyone is as open-minded as you. I’ve never denied that I’m actually a pessimist.”
“Open-minded? Mr. Qi Lei, if you think this way, even if you’re pessimistic, it won’t change the truth. I remember that you told me before that no matter how difficult and painful the reason is, it can’t be an excuse for you to stop moving forward. You know, I’ve actually always admired you. Even though you’re a little pessimistic, you’ve never stopped. That’s the way to rise above others. People always need positive energy.”
Dongfang Liuyun looked ahead silently and said softly.
Hearing that, Qi Lei just smiled and did not deny what she said. “It looks like you still have a high opinion of me.”
“Of course. My man, can’t be that bad.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s mocking tone came through, and there was a smile at the corner of his mouth.
Hearing her teasing laughter, Qi Lei turned to look at her. Seeing her smiling little face reflected in his eyes, he felt a slight warmth in his heart. He coughed lightly. “Of course I don’t dare to make you lose face, Mrs. Qi. It would be unfair for you to marry me.”
“Do you still remember the first time we met?”
Dongfang Liuyun suddenly asked.
Qi Lei thought about it for a moment, and soon, the scene appeared in his mind
“Of course I remember. It was in your Debao House. At that time, you were like an angel who had fallen into the mortal world. No matter how I looked, you felt so out of reach.”
Now that Qi Lei thought of that scene, he still found it slightly surreal.
“But, didn’t I still marry you in the end?”
Dongfang Liuyun smiled. “No one knows what will happen tomorrow. I think what we should do more is to cherish this moment. Cherish everything we have now.”
“Actually, I also admired you back then.”
“Really? What did you admire about me?”
Qi Lei’s dark eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at her.
“You’re not bad looking, and your temperament isn’t bad either.”
Dongfang Liuyun chuckled. “To be honest, the ruffian aura on you makes you quite cute.”
“Cute is used to describe women like you.”
Qi Lei frowned. He was dissatisfied with Dongfang Liuyun’s choice of words.
“I rarely praise people. Even if you’re not happy about it, you should pretend to be.”
Dongfang Liuyun smiled happily. “Also, accompany me back to Dongfang old residence this weekend. I heard from Auntie Cai that Grandmother’s condition hasn’t been great recently. She didn’t get the doctor to take a look at her either. I’m a little worried.”
“Grandmother has a lot of things to worry about. Maybe if Father solves the problem smoothly, she’ll feel a little more at ease when she comes back.”
Qi Lei suddenly frowned when he said this
Dongfang Gan had not called him in the past few days. He had called him before and seemed to be quite busy. He hung up after a few words.
