The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu's Pampered Wife Chapter 1518 - Return 3

Chapter 1518 – Return 3

When Dongfang Liuyun finished, Dongfang Gan thought about it for a while, then nodded.

“That’s fine too. Do as you wish then. I’ve told Ah Fei to prepare the information, he’ll send it over later.”

Then, he inhaled and turned his head to look at Dongfang Liuyun’s expression that was indifferent and hard to read. “Since you’ve quit your job at the university, I’m sure you’re mentally prepared as well. Take some time to rest first. Slowly get familiar with everything else later on. The company’s situation is very complicated, and I’m afraid you won’t be able to take it all on immediately. When you think you can then come to the office to work, be my a.s.sistant first.”

“I won’t be your a.s.sistant. I’ll go straight to the marketing department. In fact, I applied for an advertised position. I know the company’s marketing department has been looking out for a business manager.”

When Dongfang Gan finished, Dongfang Liuyun immediately interrupted him, “Business manager?”

Dongfang Gan frowned and took the tea that Aunt w.a.n.g handed him for a sip. He hesitated for a moment before he continued, “That’s a tough job. Why would a girl like you go and do that? There are so many positions in the whole Dongfang Group. Why did you have to choose that of all things? No way, I disagree. You should just be my a.s.sistant. I’ll ensure you get familiar with the company’s business. Then, when the time is right, I’ll arrange a more suitable position for you.

“In the past two years, I’ve aged quite a bit too. Your mother’s heart isn’t doing well either. I kept saying I’d go on a holiday with her, but it’s been so many years, and this wish has yet to be fulfilled. Now, you’re not that young anymore. When will you take the matter of marriage to heart?”

Dongfang Gan rarely brought up these things to Dongfang Liuyun because he knew that his daughter was always stubborn with her own opinions and plans. Her mother had always wanted to groom her into a sharp and imposing career woman, but Dongfang Liuyun’s bones only inherited Dongfang Gan’s reserved and gentle personality.

“Don’t worry about me. I know what I should do.” Dongfang Liuyun was tired of topics like these.

“I’m just worried about you. Your mother’s brought up about you and Fujiwara. His feelings for you aren’t new. He’s determined on marrying you, but such a sad thing as connecting families by marriage isn’t something I want to happen to my daughter. To live in such a huge family is already frustrating, and marriage is a matter of a lifetime. If you can’t even make your own decision about that, what’s the point of living?” Dongfang Gan took a sip of tea and spoke quite frankly.

Upon hearing that, Dongfang Liuyun’s lips curved into a cold smile. “You say this quite incisively. If my mother can think the same way, that will make me very happy.”

Then, she set aside her gla.s.s and slowly stood up. “What do you want to eat? Since I’m in the mood tonight, I’ll cook you a thing or two.”

When Dongfang Gan heard that, he set aside his gla.s.s too. “Let me help you with that.”

Then, he followed after her.

The kitchen at home was huge, and a few servants were busy in there. When they saw Dongfang Liuyun and Dongfang Gan walk in, they could not help but stop what they were doing and were about to greet when Dongfang Liuyun waved. “You can all go out. We’ll cook by ourselves.”

“Yes, Miss, CEO Gan,” the few of them responded and then left the kitchen.

The father and daughter began to get cracking.

Dongfang Liuyun’s culinary skills were pretty good while Dongfang Gan was terrible. He could only help her prepare the ingredients, though of course, he enjoyed spending time like this.

Usually, Dongfang Gan was a stay-at-home man. He did not have much of a temper, unlike Song Siting. Usually, if he provoked Song Siting, he would just keep quiet and let her be.

So, to outsiders, he was a henpecked male.

Dongfang Liuyun was the same, probably because she was influenced by him. She probably would not know that this was actually the kind of time that Dongfang Gan enjoyed the most. If his wife could also return calmly later on, that would be best.

“Move back and stay with us. I’m worried about you living alone over there. Besides, the residence is so huge and we have servants while you’re alone over there. How can that be more comfortable than being at home? It’s not safe for you to be alone too.”

He was watching Dongfang Liuyun as she sliced the vegetables skillfully. She seemed thinner than before, especially in the large white s.h.i.+rt she wore. Of course, Dongfang Gan felt worried at the sight of this.

He only had one precious daughter, and he loved this daughter of his more than anything else.

“I’m doing quite fine alone there. Don’t worry. I want more peace and quiet. When I think of moving back later on, I’ll let you know again.”

Knowing that her father had good intentions, Dongfang Liuyun’s tone softened. “Come visit me when you have time. It’s quite near the office anyway, so going over for dinner is quite convenient. I’ll be mostly at home for now.”

“What about De Bao?”

“I handed it over to Uncle Ming. I’m considered an idle person for now,” Dongfang Liuyun said as she squinted at him.

“It’s good to be idle. You haven’t quite slowed down and rested in a while. I told you before that there’s no need for girls to live such a tired life. Do you have to be like your mother? You know that I’ve always wished that you could be a carefree daughter.”

“Being carefree isn’t suitable for people like us. This was how you went through things as well, wasn’t it?” Dongfang Liuyun’s tone was calm. She thought about it for a while then continued, “My mother’s always saying that we father and daughter fail to live up to her expectations. Father, actually I understand you.”

When Dongfang Liuyun said that, Dongfang Gan’s movement turned stiff. After a while, he continued what he was doing. “Your mother’s just showing off with her abilities. She doesn’t know how to conceal herself. Because of this, I have been very much worried all these years, especially with her unforgiving zeal that’s enough to drive people crazy. We understand her, so we know that she’s actually a very kind person, but just because we know that that doesn’t mean others do too.

“The conflict between me and her is from the past, and it’s a gradual one. Father, I suggest that you don’t care about these things. The fact that you can tolerate her and go through this life is a great thing.”

“Mmm, okay, let’s not talk about your mother then. Do you want to get this skin peeled or just cut it into strips?”

When he noticed that Dongfang Liuyun did not look comfortable, Dongfang Gan just switched the topic. “Cut it into strips.”

“Right, today Dongfang Rouer came looking for me at the store,” Dongfang Liuyun suddenly recalled.
