Dongfang Liuyun did not stay for long and she walked outside the hospital as soon as she left.

In the office of the Tai Yu Corporation President, Qi Lei had just returned to the office after a meeting and was about to briefly read through the meeting doc.u.ments when he received a call from Yang Sheng. He did not expect Yang Sheng to call, so he immediately picked up.

“It’s me.” His deep voice was a little hoa.r.s.e because he had not rested recently.

“Master Qi, Miss Dongfang has already woken up, but she went home straight away and asked me to thank you for her…” Yang Sheng said in a low voice.

Qi Lei paused and stopped his hand movement for a while before he responded, “I see. Just go through with the formalities.”

What a stubborn person…

Qi Lei left Yang Sheng with his instructions and hung up the phone. He stayed quiet and continued to look down at the doc.u.ments in his hand.

Dongfang Liuyun dragged her tired and weak body to take a taxi back to the Beach Villa District. She then realized that she did not have a key with her, and she did not even know where her backpack was. Fortunately, she had set up a fingerprint lock before.

When she got back home, she fell asleep on the sofa before she had the time to do anything.

The day pa.s.sed quickly. When Yang Sheng knocked on the door of Qi Lei’s office, it was already time to get off work in the evening.

“Master Qi, this is the bag that Miss Dongfang left at the hospital, as well as the medicine prescribed by the hospital. Do you think someone should send it to her? The bodyguard drove her car back to De Bao House, so only this bag was left…” Yang Sheng said in a low voice when he saw Qi Lei flipping through an architectural magazine while standing under the bookshelf.

When Qi Lei heard this, he raised his gaze and looked at Yang Sheng to see a black backpack in his hand. “Just put it aside, I’ll take it to her later.”

‘It’s on the way anyway,’ Qi Lei thought in his heart.

“Okay, Master Qi, then I’ll leave it on the sofa…” Yang Sheng walked towards the sofa and put the backpack there as he carefully glanced at Qi Lei. He noticed that he was looking at the book in his hand calmly.

He did not dare to say anymore and carefully left without disturbing Qi Lei.

The night quickly approached though it was not a starry one. There was a rare crescent moon in the sky. The night breeze was refres.h.i.+ng, and it kept blowing the curtains that grazed the ground. The faint moonlight was s.h.i.+ning through the French windows and illuminated the floor.

Dongfang Liuyun slept like a log on the sofa. Since returning home, she had slept for several hours but was still groggy. If not for the doorbell that she vaguely heard, she would probably be still asleep now.

She glanced at the video on the side with her heavy eyelids, and when she saw the person standing at the door, she was a little surprised. She pressed the b.u.t.ton on the door anyway and pulled the door open.

“Why are you here?” she asked as she watched Qi Lei pa.s.s through the clean concrete pathway to the steps in front of her door.

“I came to see you and to bring you this, as well as the car key,” Qi Lei lifted the black backpack in his hand and said. He raised his gaze to look at her standing on the steps.

As the night wind blew, her clothes started swaying, and the shadow on the ground also danced constantly, making her appear even thinner.

“Aren’t you going to invite me in?” When he saw that she did not respond, he gave her a rare smile.

Dongfang Liuyun took some time to react. Her pursed lips relaxed a little and she nodded slightly. She turned around and silently motioned a welcoming gesture to him.

Qi Lei climbed up the stairs and walked in, and Dongfang Liuyun slowly followed behind him.

“Drinks?” she asked after combing her long, messy hair.

Qi Lei walked towards the sofa and put the things in his hands down. He looked at the somewhat messy sofa and subconsciously turned around to look at her. She looked sleepy and her face was still pale. He looked around and did not seem to see any servants in the house. After some thought, he asked, “Haven’t you had dinner yet?”

Dongfang Liuyun was not thinking about food at all, but now that he brought it up, she suddenly felt that her stomach was empty. The hunger pangs made her frown. “Haven’t you had dinner too?”

“I just came from the office,” Qi Lei responded.

“Let’s go out for dinner. Dinner’s on me to thank you.” Dongfang Liuyun leaned over the sofa as she tried to find her purse in the backpack, but he had already reached out to stop her. “Well, don’t try to act tough if you’re feeling sick. I don’t actually like dining outside.”

Dongfang Liuyun then sat down. When he saw that she was silent, he said, “Is there still food in your refrigerator?”

Surprised, she raised her eyebrows. “Do you want to cook by yourself?”

“Consider yourself lucky. I haven’t shown anyone my exclusive secret technique.” Qi Lei glared at her and took his coat off leisurely.

Dongfang Liuyun turned her head and smiled indifferently. “Well, since you brought it up, it seems unfair if I don’t give you this opportunity. The kitchen is on your right, and there are ample ingredients in the refrigerator, so you can show off your cooking skills as you wish.”

“I’ll try my best. By the way, you should take your medicine first. You left the hospital in the morning. Do you happen to hate that place too?” Qi Lei said and reached over to pull out a big bag of medicine from her bag. He prepared it for Dongfang Liuyun according to the instructions and poured her a cup of warm water.

Dongfang Liuyun was silent for a long time after hearing what he said. She then reached out to take the gla.s.s of water he handed along with the medicine and wash down the bitter taste in her throat. She sighed lightly. “That’s where I have experienced life and death countless times, so I’m a little scared.”

When Qi Lei heard that, he paused, and then nodded in sympathy. “I can understand how you feel.”

For a long time after w.a.n.g Qin had left, he was terrified to go to a hospital, not to mention the gloominess and the smell of disinfectant in the hospital that seemed obnoxious to him.

“Sit down. Dinner will be ready soon,” Qi Lei said as he unb.u.t.toned his sleeves and rolled them up before walking towards the kitchen.
