The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu's Pampered Wife

Chapter 1718: Sore Point (2)

At the thought of this, Qi Lei’s handsome face turned gloomy again, and his eyes flickered.

“I’m just making an objective analysis, you’re the person involved, so you’ll naturally have your own subjective thoughts.”

Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes also flickered with a wise light. She quietly watched him, paused for a moment, and continued, “Let me ask you, have you seen your father’s trusted aide, a capable assistant like Wang Chun, assisting Qi Feng? Also, as far as I know, Yue Hai seems to be your father’s capable aide too. Putting aside his loyalty, I don’t see Qi Feng being able to curry favor with him.”

“As for you, when you founded Tai Yu Corporation, both of them were sent over to help you. Qi Feng could only intervene in the South River Project until his death...”

When he heard this, Qi Lei’s eyes flashed. He suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at Dongfang Liuyun. His gaze was unfathomable.

“You investigated my matter?”

Qi Lei asked softly after a while. It was not a displeased question, but a meaningful one.

Dongfang Liuyun turned her head and laughed. “I didn’t need to investigate you for your information to be sent straight to my email.”

“Was it Lan Xiu?”

Qi Lei was a smart one?

He could think of an answer in a moment.

Dongfang Liuyun nodded happily. “That’s right. Since I’m married to you, they naturally have to find out your background. Also, I’m afraid that there are a lot of information on you from Father’s side. Don’t take it to hear, they’re just worried about me.”

Hearing that, Qi Lei smiled, “Of course I don’t mind. Since it’s a well-known fact, I’m not afraid of others looking into it. However, Lan Xiu is indeed very concerned about you. He might not be happy when you became my Mrs. Qi so rashly.”

“Lan Xiu does have some feelings for me. Moreover, it’s been many years. I know, but I’ve never wanted to expose it. I blame myself for not being cautious in the beginning and making such a request to him, he’s been alone all these years. I think it’s time to find him a partner.”

Dongfang Liuyun’s voice sounded like she was sighing.

“Is there no one else in the Lan Family?” Qi Lei asked.

Back then, Yang Sheng had secretly investigated Lan Xiu’s background, but the results he obtained made him feel somewhat incredulous.

“He used to have an older brother named Lan Qi. I’ve told you this before, he was also my good friend, but now... their life isn’t any better than yours. They were also from a rich family in their early years, so of course, they were not from our City Z. Lan Xiu’s mother was a very kind person. She worked in the customs. When Lan Xiu was very young, his father had an affair so obviously that started a war in the family. One night, Lan Xiu’s mother was patrolling the dock. Someone broke into the dock and caused trouble. Unfortunately, she fell into the sea. When she was rescued, she was already dead.”

“Later, his stepmother came into the picture, his life with Lan Qi was naturally not easy. When Grandpa Lan and the others were still around, their lives were better. When Grandpa Lan and the others passed on, there was no place left for them. They could be considered to have been indirectly expelled from the Lan family. Until today, it really hasn’t easy for him.”

As Dongfang Liuyun said this, she suddenly thought of something and stopped what she was doing

“After that, they came to City Z. It was their grandmother who took them in, their grandmother was just a retired veteran. Of course, Grandfather Lan and my grandfather were good friends, so...”

“Up until now, they haven’t gone back. Although there has been news from there, Lan Xiu doesn’t care anymore. Of course, they haven’t come to look for the two brothers before. Of course, this is only the rough story. Only Lan Qi and Lan Xiu know what they really went through, but they never mention this to anyone, including me.”

Dongfang Liuyun sighed. As she spoke, she took a deep breath and put away the towel in her hand, “So, don’t pity your own experience, and don’t be dissatisfied. Compared to many people, we’ve got it so much better. Perhaps we have never encountered a true dead end. This is an era of peace, so how can there be so much despair? Any excuse for difficulty isn’t enough to be a reason for us to indulge and degenerate. Alright, drink up. Wash up and rest early. Wash the dishes yourself. I’ll go take a bath.”

As Dongfang Liuyun spoke, her slender figure quickly disappeared from the door.

When Qi Lei turned to look at her, she was long gone from the door.

...

The event was held satisfactorily. For the next few days, the number of orders for new products was on the rise. In addition to the intensity of the event, there were many customers.

The incident at the dinner party was suppressed and did not affect much. It was thanks to Dongfang Liuyun’s prompt decision.

Dongfang Gan had been very busy for the past few days and did not go to the company. Dongfang Liuyun only saw him in the evening on the third day after she finished her leave.

“Father, where have you been these past few days? I couldn’t get through to you on the phone either?”

In Dongfang Gan’s office, Dongfang Liuyun frowned as she looked at Dongfang Gan, who had a hint of fatigue between his brows.

Dongfang Gan pointed to the seat in front of him and gave a look to Ah Fei, who quickly poured a glass of water for Dongfang Liuyun before leaving.

Dongfang Liuyun quickly sat down as well, her gaze still fixed on Dongfang Gan.

“Discussed with the other partners about the matter over there, it’s nothing much. Don’t worry! I’ve heard the details of the event. It’s been hard on you. Secretary Ding also told me about the matter of the investigation. I was the one who told her to stop the investigation. It’s a critical period right now, I think you can understand my reason for doing so.”

Dongfang Gan remained standing. As he spoke, he turned around and walked towards the bookshelf behind him. He took out a document from the bookshelf above and continued to speak, “The truth of this matter is not that important. However, the result can cause one to ponder over it.”

His profound gaze swept over Dongfang Liuyun. Dongfang Liuyun was quiet for a moment. After some thought, she finally nodded. “I understand, Father! Silence is better than words. I know what to do. Don’t worry.”

Dongfang Gan looked at his daughter with approval and smiled amiably, “It’s good that you understand. You’ve always been smart, you understand with just a hint from me. After tomorrow, when I leave home, remember to come home often. Your mother will be home alone, I’m worried too. She doesn’t object your relationship with Qi Lei anymore. In fact, as long as you’re happy, your mother and I will be satisfied. The thing we’re most worried about is you not doing well.”
