Chapter 1882: Warming Up (4)

He walked ahead for quite a distance, Qi Lei did not speak. His expression was as calm as water.

Yang Sheng saw that he was also deep in thought, so he naturally did not dare to disturb him.

After a long while, Qi Lei, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and turned to look at Yang Sheng. Yang Sheng also stopped almost instantly and looked up at Qi Lei.

“I remember that two years ago, my mother had some friendship with the Elder Mr. Ge from before?”

Qi Lei asked in a low voice.

Hearing this, Yang Sheng paused and recalled carefully. Sure enough, after a moment, he nodded, “Yes, Master Qi. Vice President Wang seemed to have saved Elder Mr. Ge’s life when he was on a business trip in City C. At that time, Elder Mr. Ge thanked her profusely and said that he would definitely remember Vice President Wang’s favor.”

Qi Lei listened and nodded in understanding. “Alright then, organize these documents and send them to Mr. Ge. Tell him that it’s time for him to fulfill the favor.”

Yang Sheng was stunned when Qi Lei said this. He quickly said, “Fulfill the favor? Master Qi, this… This isn’t very good, right? On Missus’s side…”

“If Mr. Ge is someone who keeps his promise, he will know what to do. It’s better than asking her to find that Fujiwara person.”

Qi Lei closed his eyes and took a deep breath. After a long while, he opened his eyes and continued walking forward.

“Master Qi!”

Yang Sheng did not come back to his senses for a moment. He was in a daze for a while before he roughly understood what Qi Lei meant.

“I understand, Master Qi. I’ll contact Mr. Ge right away.”

“No, you have to go over personally. You have to settle this matter.” Qi Lei said.

Yang Sheng nodded as well. “Yes, I got it. I’ll make some preparations right away. I’ll book a flight ticket and leave immediately.”

…

While Qi Lei was worrying about this matter, Dongfang Liuyun was not having it easy either. It was precisely because of this matter that she was worried.

At this moment, in Lan Xiu’s office, when Dongfang Liuyun arrived, Lan Xiu had already brewed tea and was waiting.

The two of them sat facing each other. Lan Xiu handed over the project information to Dongfang Liuyun, “I tried to contact Mr. Ge before, but his cell phone couldn’t get through. I think he intentionally avoided us. The hotel he’s staying in is Emperor. However, he hasn’t returned to the hotel in the past two days, so we couldn’t find him.”

“You couldn’t find him? How is that possible?”

Dongfang Liuyun frowned. “I’ve already asked you to send someone to follow him. Didn’t we do that?”

“He’s intentionally avoiding us, naturally our people won’t be able to find him.”

Lan Xiu picked up the tea and took a simple sip. “I’ve already asked Ah Li to increase his efforts and make sure to track him down. So, we can only wait for news now.”

Dongfang Liuyun’s expression darkened as she listened. She then rubbed the space between her brows, “If he’s deliberately avoiding the project, does that mean that the project will not continue? We can’t be so passive. This project is not something that he alone can make an absolute decision on.”

“He’s the one in charge of this project. It won’t be easy for him to find another shortcut.”

“I know. What else do you think he can do now?”

Dongfang Liuyun looked at Lan Xiu quietly, her brows knitted together.

Lan Xiu was silent for a moment before replying, “Do you really have to insist on this project?”

“What do you think? We’ve come this far, and you’ve seen everyone’s hard work. If this project is ruined, many of our previous plans will be disrupted. I don’t want to see this result.”

“Did Mr. Ge go to Fujiwara after he got off the plane?”

Seeing that Lan Xiu was silent, Dongfang Liuyun asked directly from behind.

At this moment, Lan Xiu took a deep breath and said with a bitter smile, “This matter has nothing to do with Ah Ye. Don’t always target him. Actually, Mr. Ge and Ah Ye aren’t very close. Mr. Ge is only close to Elder Fujiwara…”

It seemed as if Lan Xiu could not stand Dongfang Liuyun’s misunderstanding of Fujiwara, so he explained.

Dongfang Liuyun listened and smiled indifferently, “You don’t have to speak for him. I know that he’s been spending a lot of time with you recently, and you’re also clear about the situation on his side. If it weren’t for him, this project wouldn’t have been delayed so much. I know that he’s waiting for me to find him.”

“There are many things between the two of you that need to be discussed. You should know that he’s been through a lot these years. I’ve thought about Lan Qi’s matter. Actually, I can’t blame Ah Ye. If he had saved him at that time, Ah Ye might not have made it back. He’s willing to be a hero for you. However, with Lan Qi…”

“Don’t mention Lan Qi to me. No one understands what happened more than me. We’ve already become a thing of the past. Once something becomes a thing of the past, there’s no way of coming back from it. Lan Xiu, I only have so many feelings for him. After I squander it away, it’s gone. Some things aren’t going to work out just with one’s own wishful thinking.”

“He’s had a hard time these past few years. Every day, he’s been thinking of you. I know that it’s not right to say these things now. Qi Lei is a good person, but Liuyun, if this problem isn’t resolved, you won’t be able to truly live a peaceful life. Fujiwara is in this city right now. He’s here for you. Can you guarantee that Qi Lei doesn’t care about him at all? If he really cares about you and truly loves you, he wouldn’t not care.”

Lan Xiu said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Dongfang Liuyun’s expression darkened. After a long silence, she replied, “Even so, I can only choose to trust him. Fujiwara, I’ve already met him before.”

“It’s been so long since we last met. I feel much calmer now. It’s really not a big deal. Tell him not to persist any longer. It’s meaningless. The person I have to protect in this life can’t possibly be him.”

Dongfang Liuyun said with some disappointment.

“But he feels that the person you should guard is him. I’ve tried to persuade him, but you know his determination better than anyone else.”

Lan Xiu took a deep breath. “Liuyun, there’s something I think I should tell you.”

Suddenly, as if he had recalled something, Lan Xiu’s tone sounded a little grave.

Dongfang Liuyun raised her gaze and quietly watched him.

“Back then, when Ah Ye returned, he was served by the Fujiwara family’s family law and was locked up in the detention room for two months. This was the reason why he didn’t return after so long. Actually, when Elder Brother Lan Qi proposed to you, I didn’t quite agree. I know that you didn’t have any feelings for him at all. You almost…”

“Alright, stop talking! Stop!”

Before Lan Xiu could finish, he was interrupted by Dongfang Liuyun—

“I only care about the results. I only want to care about the result. The process isn’t that important anymore…”
