When they drove over, Qi Lei had already arrived. He ordered a table full of good dishes and naturally ordered some wine.

Dongfang Liuyun poured wine for the three glasses in front of her. She moved them one by one in front of Lan Xiu and Qi Lei. Then, she took her own glass and looked at the two of them indifferently—

“Let’s toast. From what I remember, this is the first time the three of us have gathered like this. Let’s have a drink and have a meal together.”

As soon as she finished, Qi Lei and Lan Xiu exchanged a look before raising their glasses.

The few of them toasted each other and drank up.

“I can tell that you guys come here often to relax.”

Lan Xiu smiled. When the waiter served the dishes, he knew their tastes. They must be regular customers here.

“I’ve been coming here often in the past year or two. This place isn’t too far from De Bao House. I haven’t been back to the shop for a long time. Uncle Ming is taking care of everything.”

As Dongfang Liuyun spoke, she poured wine for the two of them.

“Uncle Ming? Is he still healthy?”

Lan Xiu naturally knew Uncle Ming. He was Elder Dongfang’s right-hand man. After Elder Dongfang left, he retired. He treated Dongfang Liuyun very well.

“It’s fine. He’s just alone and quite lonely. It’s good that he likes these antiques too. It’s best to let him take care of them.”

“That’s good.”

…

Qi Lei did not say much. He just stayed by the side quietly. Occasionally, he would peel a few prawns from Dongfang Liuyun’s bowl and add some dishes that she liked.

Dongfang Liuyun and Lan Xiu did not avoid talking about business matters during dinner. Of course, there was also the matter of Dongfang Shuman’s birthday tomorrow.

“You have to face the things that you have to face sooner or later. Lan Xiu, you don’t have to worry about anything. The Dongfang family’s matters have got nothing to do with you. Don’t be too hard on yourself. It’s time for you to think for yourself,” Dongfang Liuyun said indifferently.

She took a deep breath and downed the wine in her glass in one gulp. Then, she lowered her eyes and said, “Grandfather once told me that the Dongfang Group is a mess to begin with. It’s not easy to take control of it. Now, I can be considered to have experienced it behind my back. It’s just that I don’t want all his hard work to be destroyed by our generation.”

“The Dongfang Group has gone through much for so many years, and there are many internal problems. Only now do I understand how my father was able to hold on with great difficulty back then. Grandmother’s control is fine, but she places too much importance on friendship. I know that she had an agreement with Grandfather and Grandfather’s ex-wife back then. Now, she is also very passive. Grandmother has always been unwilling to talk about this matter, but Grandfather told me about it.”

“Now, do you know why Grandmother didn’t dare to touch Dongfang Ren and Dongfang Yi? Even my father is now somewhat constrained by this matter. I’m destined to be this bad guy.”

Dongfang Liuyun turned her body slightly and smiled a little sadly. She picked up the wine bottle and poured herself another glass. “Actually, Grandmother and my parents know about my situation, so…”

“A few years ago, things were peaceful, but in the past one or two years, some people couldn’t hold back anymore. Otherwise, my father wouldn’t have been in trouble in Myanmar so often. I’m still young. If anything happened to my father, with my understanding and ability of the Dongfang Group, I would be equivalent to a useless chess piece.”

“Liuyun, don’t think too much. Everything is developing quite well now. Uncle Dongfang knows about it.”

Lan Xiu tried to console her.

“Let’s not talk about these things for now, let’s drink happily tonight.”

Dongfang Liuyun was tired of talking about the rest.

Naturally, Lan Xiu would not be so tactless, so he stopped talking.

…

When they went back, it was already very late. Dongfang Liuyun was not drunk, even though she drank the most. Qi Lei did not drink much because he was thinking about driving.

Lan Xiu had a good tolerance for alcohol, but Ah Li was the one who sent him back.

“I won’t let you lose. The Dongfang Group will definitely be in your hands.”

As the car sped towards the Grand Lake Villa district, Qi Lei suddenly said this. His sonorous and firm voice broke the silence in the car. It was exceptionally clear and naturally reached Dongfang Liuyun’s ears.

Dongfang Liuyun quickly pulled her gaze back from the street outside and looked at him silently. After a moment, she smiled calmly. “Do you think I can do it?”

“Of course,” Qi Lei replied.

“Then I can definitely do it.”

Dongfang Liuyun smiled.

Qi Lei raised his handsome eyebrows and was a little puzzled.

“Since you have so much confidence in me, I naturally have to have confidence in myself.”

“Your ability to adjust is quite surprising.”

“How did you think I was a teacher then?”

Dongfang Liuyun accepted his praise without any modesty.

…

At the same time, when Lan Xiu returned home, it was already late at night.

Ah Li asked the servants to cook some sobering soup for him and served it to him on the second floor.

At this moment, Lan Xiu had just finished showering and changed into a nightgown.

“President Lan, this is hangover soup. You drank quite a lot of wine tonight. You should drink some. You might be able to sleep better later. You haven’t had a good rest for a few days. Next week’s work will be very intense. You need to pay more attention to your health.”

Ah Li said with concern.

Lan Xiu glanced at him, then his tall body crossed over and sat on the sofa. He reached out and took the hangover soup Ah Li handed over. He quickly drank two mouthfuls and felt refreshed.

“You should go back soon, you’ve worked hard.”

Lan Xiu raised his head slightly and looked at Ah Li.

“It’s fine. President Lan, your current state is quite worrying. Today at Miss Dongfang’s place… It seems that she’s still a little avoidant of Master Fujiwara’s matters. President Lan, why do you have to worry about this? Perhaps Miss Dongfang is just a passerby in your life. Even if we don’t think about it now, the outcome would still be obvious. I think that we might…”

“Liuyun is not a passerby, Ah Li. You know my situation all these years. From my point of view, I know that you’re doing this for my own good. However, you might not know exactly what I experienced and how I persevered through all those years, but Liuyun is very clear. If it weren’t for her, I’m afraid that I wouldn’t be here today.”

Before Ah Li could finish his sentence, he was suddenly cut off by Lan Xiu. “She won’t be a passerby, she can’t be.”

Lan Xiu thought that there was probably no one in this world who could occupy such an important position in his heart. Of course, even he himself could not compare to her.

Unfortunately, between them…
