The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu's Pampered Wife Chapter 1613 – Unromantic (Chapter 2)

Chapter 1613: Unromantic (2)

The afternoon sun seemed to feel very short-lived. After familiarizing herself with the company with Ding Xiaoling, she was also busy in her office. It was not until the evening when Dongfang Gan called that she realized that it was already late.

When Dongfang Liuyun packed up the documents and left the office, the employees outside had almost finished their work. She took the elevator directly to the parking lot on the second floor of the basement.

Soon, she found her father, Dongfang Gan’s car.

It was a modest black-colored car, and Dongfang Gan was driving. When he saw his daughter coming over, he quickly went over to help her open the car door.

“You’ve been waiting for a long time, haven’t you? Is there any water?”

Dongfang Liuyun took off the backpack on her shoulder, threw it into the backseat, and closed the car door.

“The bottle on the side is clean. You’re all sweaty, wipe yourself dry. It’s already autumn, and the weather is still very hot. Let’s go shopping at night, you can buy a few cotton skirts to wear to keep you cool. I’ll also get a few for your mother. She’s been busy with work for the past two months, so she hasn’t been taking care of herself.”

Dongfang Gan turned to look at Dongfang Liuyun as he started the car.

Dongfang Liuyun reached out for the water bottle, opened it, and raised her head to drink a few mouthfuls. She wiped her sweat as she replied, “Father, every time you go shopping with me, you have an ulterior motive. In name, you go shopping with me, but in reality, it’s mostly for the sake of Madam Song at home. Sometimes, I still don’t understand how a successful person like you would fall for a woman like my mother. Isn’t it said that people at your level like gentle, virtuous, and talented women?”

“Which one is your mother lacking in? Your mother took care of the family all these years for the sake of us father and daughter. When I first joined the Dongfang group, it was very difficult. Your mother and I fought our way through it step by step. We’re an old married couple. I don’t have the mood anymore. You’re already so old.”

Dongfang Gan thought for a moment before saying, “Besides, for many things, I still need your mother to hold down the fort. You might not understand even if I told you. If you really meet him in the future, you might be able to understand. I’ve roughly observed Qi Lei and checked him out. Overall, he’s not bad, even though he had a previous reputation of being flirtatious. But if such a person can be faithful, he’ll be more loyal than those who are so-called faithful from the start. Father is also a man, when I haven’t chosen your mother in the early years, I spent a lot of time like him too, so I can understand a little.”

It was rare for him to give a pertinent opinion. Dongfang Gan had been thinking over and over again for the past two days—

Since his daughter had already made such a choice, he could not force her to do anything. After all, the path was her own choice, so he should just let her do whatever she wanted. He had to believe in his daughter. Moreover, no matter what, he would still have his daughter in the future, as Dongfang Gan’s daughter, she would always be the noblest princess.

“Do you really think that you’re counting on me to marry Lan Xiu?”

Dongfang Liuyun glanced at Dongfang Gan in surprise. She watched as Dongfang Gan skillfully increased the speed of the car. She took a deep breath and continued, “I’m too familiar with Lan Xiu. In fact, it’s not suitable for us to get married. He knows my background very well. It’s not a good thing for some relationships to go with the flow. There’s no sense of anticipation.”

“You mean that Qi Lei makes you feels a sense of anticipation? I can’t tell how much you really like him from your eyes, but he’s very sincere to you. However, sincerity isn’t love. You can’t hide it from my eyes.”

Dongfang Gan glanced at Dongfang Liuyun.

Dongfang Liuyun leaned back and leaned against Dongfang Gan. She was silent for a moment before saying, “He’s pretty great. At least, I don’t feel too much pressure when I’m with him. Occasionally, I feel a little happy. His relaxed and optimistic state can deeply affect me. You know, I need these healing things myself. In this day and age, who would want to carry a burden for the rest of their life?”

Dongfang Liuyun recalled some things about Qi Lei. It seemed to be true. It was only during such times that she could feel more relaxed and the shackles in her heart could be temporarily released.

“If you want me to talk about marriage, I’ve always felt that the most important thing is to be compatible, not whether it’s how things should be. Compatibility is a truth proven through practice, and how things should be is just a subjective matter.”

“Don’t use such materialistic dialectics to tell me these things. I don’t understand, and I don’t want to understand. You chose the path yourself. You have to walk it yourself while you’re crying on your knees.”

Dongfang Gan glared at her.

Dongfang Liuyun immediately chuckled and reached out to pat Dongfang Gan’s shoulder. Dongfang Gan shrunk his shoulders and looked at her with disdain, “Don’t touch me. Every time you reason with me, the reason is always on your side. Your mother is the same. I’m the only one who suffers the most at home.”

“That’s because I’m right. I’ve left you speechless! Alright, father, I know that you care about me and cherish me, but I’m already so old. I know what’s right and wrong. Besides, have you seen me cry all these years? I won’t embarrass you.”

Dongfang Liuyun raised her hand and fiddled with her bangs.

“I’ll know later if I’m embarrassed or not. Tonight, be more positive, it’s all the big shots in the industry and some of my good friends. The dinner was arranged in your name. You should know what to do, right? Can’t you keep away the ring on your hand? Maybe you might even take a fancy to a certain young master.”

Seeing the sparkling ring on Dongfang Liuyun’s hand, Dongfang Gan subconsciously frowned.

“I’m already married, so there’s nothing wrong with wearing a wedding ring. Besides, I didn’t embarrass you. It’s not tacky, and it’s quite nice and expensive. Take a look.”

As Dongfang Liuyun spoke, she extended her hand that was wearing the diamond ring to Dongfang Gan.

Dongfang Gan glared at her, “Take it back. It’s an eyesore! It’s ostentatious!”

“I’m just announcing my status as a taken woman to avoid unnecessary trouble. They might not know who I’m dating anyway,” Dongfang Liuyun replied indifferently.

Qi Lei’s words suddenly flashed across her mind, and she continued, “Oh right, father, Qi Lei said that he wants you and mother to pick a time to come home and discuss the marriage. He wants to find a date to betroth.”

“Since it’s a betrothal, why don’t you get him to come over and tell us himself? Do you think that my daughter is easy to marry?” Dongfang Gan replied unhappily.

Thinking about how his daughter, whom he had doted on since young, had immediately become another man’s, he could not help but feel uncomfortable.

“I’m just telling you in advance. Don’t vent your anger on him. He didn’t mistreat your daughter,” Dongfang Liuyun smiled and said.
