The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu's Pampered Wife Chapter 1512 - She“s Like The Wind 2

Chapter 1512 She“s Like The Wind 2

Upon hearing that, Dongfang Liuyun propped her head up on one hand. Her beautiful face could not hide a hint of fatigue. “Sometimes, it’s not about just doing whatever I want. I did live 20 over years of a carefree life, so it’s time I changed up my lifestyle.”

“To hear this from Dongfang Liuyun does put me in slight disbelief.” Qi Lei chuckled.

“Disbelief? I’m human too. To suffer through such pressure for a long period of time wears me out, so it’s good for me to change my lifestyle anyway. You’ve changed quite a lot too. I haven’t met you in about half a year. Why do you seem so mysterious and profound now?” Dongfang Liuyun calmly asked back.

“When you come visit me at my office and face those subordinates as well as those business partners, you’ll understand why.” Qi Lei’s tone was actually somewhat helpless, but he thought about it and just smiled.

When she heard that, Dongfang Liuyun obviously understood. She had seen such a thing before. Her mother always taught her how to cultivate one’s charisma and vigor.

Her mother was a lawyer, and in fact, she was quite a famous one whose imposing manner made even the judges suffer from stage fright sometimes.

“That’s true. Sometimes, it’s only like this that your opponent won’t be able to catch on to you. You’ve changed quite a bit in a short amount of time, and I’m amazed.” Dongfang Liuyun was happy for Qi Lei.

“Enough about me. What do you want to eat? I finished work early to treat you to a meal, so consider it a celebration for the last time we attacked the underground military base the last time.”

“The underground military base? It’s been so long. Did you really want this meal so much? Let’s have Chinese. I’ll let you decide where.”

A light glimmered in Dongfang Liuyun’s starry eyes while she lowered her gaze and flipped another page of the magazine as she spoke absent-mindedly. She leaned back against the seat and slowly shut her eyes.

Upon seeing the fatigue that gathered between her brows, Qi Lei did not make another sound. Instead, he changed the CD to another more relaxing piano tune, and then continued to silently drive.

After about 20 minutes, the two of them reached their destination. It was a rather high-end looking eatery with an elegant atmosphere. It had the charm of ca.n.a.l towns, exuding a style with a homely feel to it.

Once they walked into the eatery, they could hear the sound of water flowing, and then came a refres.h.i.+ng feeling that made Dongfang Liuyun feel more awake.

The two of them found a booth in a quiet corner to sit.

When Qi Lei handed over the menu, Dongfang Liuyun just casually waved. “You order. I’m not too picky about my food. Just don’t order alcohol.”

He instantly looked up from the menu when he heard her. Then, he gave her a glance and his concerned gaze fell onto her quickly. “Are you feeling unwell?”

“It’s minor. My stomach’s not been feeling too well, but it’ll be fine in two days,” she said nonchalantly.

Qi Lei flipped open the menu unhurriedly and said calmly, “We’ve known each other for a while now, and we’ve gathered many times, but I really don’t know what you like such as whether you like lighter flavors, savoury, or sweet.”

“I don’t pursue vegetarianism. I’m one who loves meat,” replied Dongfang Liuyun as she held up the tea before her to take a sip.

“Only people like you who don’t seem to get fat no matter what you eat would have such boldness. Alright then, I’ll order some things that are easier on the digestive system.”

Qi Lei then swiftly ordered the food and even got some shredded chicken porridge for Dongfang Liuyun.

Since they were there during dinner time, there were many customers at the eatery. However, despite the crowd, everyone spoke quietly. On the round 360-degree stage upfront, there was a live band playing in the middle. Dongfang Liuyun could see it when she turned. They were eye-catching and the song that was being sung felt quite apt too.

The dishes were soon served, and they picked up their chopsticks in unison.

“Are you not planning on going away again after your return this time?”

She would always disappear for a month or two, or for quite a few months, so Qi Lei was used to Dongfang Liuyun busy and running around.

Dongfang Liuyun held up her bowl and finished half of it before she responded, “For the short term, I might need to stay put before I make plans again. For the next one to two months, I’ll be resting first. I’m afraid I won’t be quite as free anymore after this. While I still have a chance, I’ll cherish it.”

“I heard that Mr. Dongfang wasn’t too healthy before this. You must have rushed back for him.”

Even though Qi Lei was not too clear about the information on Dongfang Liuyun’s end, he roughly knew that the Dongfang Group was a financial group that ran in the family. They were a listed company with a long history, run by a well-known and mysterious family enterprise. If one were to go into concrete details, it should be similar to Qi Kai’s previous incarnation.

The range of businesses that they were involved with was broad with jewels and antiques as the main sector. They also broke out of the conventional sole manufacturing mode and expanded into light decorations and electronics, as well as packaging and other businesses.

The real person wielding power at Dongfang Group was Dongfang Liuyun’s grandmother, Dongfang Shuman. As a legend from the same generation as Mu Yinan, she was an eminent and unapproachable person at the top of the pyramid.

Apparently, Dongfang Shuman’s real name was Shuman while Dongfang was her husband’s surname, but she changed it when she got married to Old Master Dongfang. After Shuman married him, they gave birth to Dongfang Gan, who was Dongfang Liuyun’s father, and they had another daughter called Dongfang Xue. Dongfang Xue was their daughter that they had at 40-odd years old, but right now, she was 36 years old without anyone to settle down with.

However, it seemed like these past few years Dongfang Shuman had been retreating from the business scene. A few years ago, she even fell severely ill. Outsiders were unsure about whether she was alive and well or not. Previously, even Qi Lei and Yang Sheng thought that Dongfang Shuman was gone. If it were not for the fact that she had been brought up once by chance, he would not have known.

However, the current CEO was Dongfang Gan. The Dongfang Group’s internal structure was actually quite complicated. Old Master Dongfang did not just have one son alone since he had gotten married once before. His first wife also bore two sons for him: Dongfang Ren and Dongfang Yi. After they were divorced, the two sons followed Old Master Dongfang, and after that, he had married Shuman.

Also, Old Master Dongfang was not the family’s only son. He was the eldest and had quite a few siblings after him, so…
