Chapter 1755: Fujiwara (2)
Only then did Lan Xiu stop. He reached out to take out his phone. When he saw the caller ID, he was stunned. He let his phone ring for a long time, but he did not pick it up.
“President Lan, it’s Master Fujiwara’s phone call… he has called you many times, but…”
But you did not pick up…
Ah Li did not dare to say anything else. He had just rushed over and yet saw Dongfang Liuyun leave. As for Lan Xiu, he stared blankly at the phone in his hand and did not seem to have any intention of picking it up.
Seeing that the screen of the phone had darkened, Lan Xiu decided to mute it. Then, he stuffed the phone into his pocket and walked forward.
“President Lan!”
Ah Li frowned. There was a hint of worry in his eyes. Then, he followed.
…
Just as she walked out of the inpatient department, Dongfang Liuyun saw Wang Chun.
“Missus!”
Wang Chun greeted him warmly, “How is Lawyer Song’s injury? Is she better?”
Wang Chun naturally knew about Song Siting.
Dongfang Liuyun nodded. “Much better. Why are you here?”
“Second Master asked me to bring you the information. If it’s confirmed that there are no problems, please sign it. I’ll get someone to send it over to Vice President Zhang at the Dongfang Group. Oh, right, Second Master will probably be working late tonight. I’ve already asked the hospital to arrange for two special nurses to take care of Lawyer Song. Second Master asked you to go home and rest first. He’ll come over later and tell you not to worry.”
Wang Chun relayed Qi Lei’s instructions directly. As he took out the documents from his briefcase, the two of them walked unhurriedly towards the garden path at the side.
Dongfang Liuyun took the documents and flipped through them briefly. Soon, she looked up at Wang Chun. “Your President Qi is at the company right now?”
Wang Chun nodded. “There’s a very important meeting in the afternoon. He can’t even make it for lunch now, so he rushed out with the plan.”
“I understand. There’s nothing serious at the hospital. I’ve already asked Secretary Ding to rush over. I’ll go directly to Tai Yu Corporation to look for him. You do your thing.”
Dongfang Liuyun frowned. Then, she closed the document in hand and walked forward.
“Missus! Second Young Master said…”
Dongfang Liuyun naturally pretended not to hear the rest of his sentence. She took out the car keys from his pocket and went to the parking lot.
…
“It’s been arranged, Master Qi.”
In Tai Yu Corporation’s President’s office, Yang Sheng spoke in a low voice. He was afraid of disturbing Qi Lei, who was sitting in front of his desk and flipping through his documents.
“Yes, hurry up.”
Qi Lei did not even lift his eyelids as he ordered. He did not stop what he was doing.
“Yes! Master Qi! Oh right, this weekend is the once-in-three-years king of gamblers competition. Master Qi, do you want to…” Yang Sheng reminded him.
“Let Wang Chun handle it. Do what he did in the past. I remember that there are people in charge of these things. Other than the company’s matters, try not to disturb me with anything else.”
Qi Lei instructed with an indifferent expression.
“But Master Qi, now President Qi is still…”
“Long ago, when grandfather decided to whitewash the industry, he already made many plans. I don’t want Tai Yu Corporation to get involved in that circle again. You have to remember these words. In the future, try not to disturb me with these things.”
As Qi Lei spoke, there was a hint of gloominess between his brows. “Grandfather said it clearly in the past. Otherwise, if old man Qi had been more ruthless back then, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have had the chance to stand here.”
“Master Qi, you’re probably thinking too much. I heard Wang Chun say that President Qi only wanted to hand Qi Kai over to the First Master to manage. He didn’t involve anything else. In fact, I’m afraid that even President Qi didn’t trust the First Master. Otherwise, the First Master would have known more about the casino.”
“Would have known more? If I didn’t know about it from my grandfather or my mother, would I have been able to touch these things?”
Qi Lei could not help but take a deep breath when he said this. “All these years, Qi Kai has taken both the dark and the light paths. It’s not like there aren’t any guards of honor along the way.”
Qi Lei slowly propped himself up on the table and stood up. He held an empty cup in his hand and walked to the coffee table beside the sofa. He poured himself a cup of water and also poured a cup for Yang Sheng. He pointed at the sofa opposite him and gestured for him to sit down.
Yang Sheng was stunned for a moment before sitting down behind him.
Qi Lei leisurely drank a few mouthfuls of water before speaking unhurriedly, “When the situation in Tai Yu Corporation is more stable, I plan to consolidate these forces. After being stranded for so many years, there are many internal matters that need to be cleaned up. Wang Chun did show me some information previously. You know this matter well.”
“Master Qi, President Qi should be the one to do this…”
“If you wish for him to wake up, you might as well count on yourself.”
Qi Lei gave a simple reply before slowly getting up and walking towards the window. He left a cold dark view towards Yang Sheng, looking lonely and bleak.
“Master Qi, there’s news from the other side. I also asked someone to pay attention to Fujiwara… I heard that he and Missus once…”
“Fujiwara? Did I ask you to investigate him?”
Before Yang Sheng could finish, Qi Lei had already cut him off. There was a hint of displeasure in his tone.
Yang Sheng broke into cold sweat, but for the sake of Master Qi’s future, he could only bite the bullet and say, “I’m sorry, Master Qi. I’m just worried that they’ll do you harm. That Fujiwara is determined to get Missus. If it weren’t for…”
“Determined to get her? Don’t tell me that I, Qi Lei, am afraid of Fujiwara? Dongfang Liuyun is now Madam Qi, my woman. Who is this Fujiwara?”
Qi Lei’s face immediately turned cold when he heard that. His tone could not help but be filled with a hint of sarcasm, “I don’t care what their relationship was in the past. I only care about the facts now. Don’t ever bring this up in front of your Missus.”
It was not wise to create a rift between the husband and wife because of these past matters. However, Dongfang Liuyun had said before that she would tell him about these things in the future. He did not ask any more questions after that.
They all have a past. For instance, Qi Lei was not very open and aboveboard. At the very least, he was a true playboy in the past.
Dongfang Liuyun was so outstanding that it was normal for him to have an admirer. But now, he, Qi Lei, was the one who had her, was that not true?
As he thought about this, the stifling feeling he felt earlier receded a little—
He knew that Dongfang Liuyun probably had profound feelings for Fujiwara, but he did not know how she felt about him?
