Chapter 1632: How Could I Lose It? (1)

Later on, the couple even bowed three times to w.a.n.g Qin in tacit understanding. This was the first time Dongfang Liuyun had visited the Qi family as Qi Lei’s wife, but…

After staying for a while, the couple left.

It was already evening when they left the cemetery. The rain had stopped and there was some sunlight, but the air was still hot and stuffy. It would probably rain soon.

The couple headed straight back home, and rushed to the supermarket near the villa area to buy some ingredients before that.

When they got home, Dongfang Liuyun decided to show off her skills with rare interest. Qi Lei was naturally very happy. He leisurely watched TV in the living room and waited for Dongfang Liuyun’s dinner.

More than an hour later, the food was served on the table.

“Don’t forget the promise you made with father tomorrow. He hates people who don’t have a sense of time.” Dongfang Liuyun suddenly reminded him when she was serving soup to Qi Lei.

“Don’t worry, I’m taking this to heart.” Qi Lei took it and replied. He drank a few mouthfuls of the soup in enjoyment.

“You’d better be concerned. Otherwise, it won’t be easy for you to pa.s.s the test over there. Although I don’t approve of the Dongfang family’s actions, there are some things that I can’t change for the time being. You need to get along well with father. I’ve gotten along well with father since we were young. Apart from being father and daughter, we’re also friends and he’s my teacher. He usually respects my choice, and since he’s asked you out like this, it means that he acknowledges you,” said Dongfang Liuyun.

“Are you so worried that mother and father won’t acknowledge me?” Qi Lei stopped what he was doing and looked at her meaningfully.

She did not have much of a reaction. She continued to drink her soup. “If they don’t approve of you, we’ll need more time to deal with them. So, what do you think?”

Qi Lei listened and suddenly smiled. He nodded happily and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, I won’t make things difficult for us.”

…

The night gradually grew late. The city near midnight was much quieter than during the day, especially in this kind of weather. The bright lights were also much dimmer than before.

Lan Xiu stood on the balcony outside the study and quietly looked at the street lights below. There was a trace of worry between his brows that even he did not notice. He was holding an open doc.u.ment in his hand.

“President Lan, I just found out that at the end of last month, Miss Dongfang and President Qi of Tai Yu Corporation had already registered their marriage. Moreover, a few days ago, they had already gone back to see President Gan and the others, President Lan…”Ah Li said carefully.

Looking at Lan Xiu’s face, he realized that his face had already turned a little pale. There was also an inexplicable hint of loneliness or sadness in his dark eyes?

“I understand. There’s no need to continue.”

Lan Xiu’s low voice was heard. His hands that were holding the railing in front of him had already tightened—

He could no longer describe the feelings in his heart. He could only numbly feel waves of dull pain a.s.saulting him. There was a suffocating feeling of darkness that almost took away all of his rationality and breath.

Actually, he should have been able to guess then.

Married?

Dongfang Liuyun, you are re still…

“President Lan, are you alright?” Ah Li, who was standing behind him, asked worriedly. He went forward to hold Lan Xiu.

However, Lan Xiu raised his hand to stop him. “I’m fine. You can go down first.”

“President Lan, you’ve only just recovered from your cold slightly. It’s already so late. You should rest first to prevent it from getting worse. Let Miss Dongfang come over tomorrow. Perhaps you’ll be able to find out what’s going on.” Ah Li lowered his voice and said.

“You should go back first. I know what I’m doing.” Lan Xiu said indifferently with a cold tone.

Ah Li knew Lan Xiu very well, so he could only turn around and leave immediately.

Hearing the sound of the door close, Lan Xiu’s five fingers brushed across his scalp. He held his suddenly aching head, and he began to feel a little dazed…

He wanted to call her, but he held back. Even if he knew that he would immediately hear her voice if he pressed the b.u.t.ton…

..

Dongfang Liuyun did not expect that Lan Xiu would just show up. The next day, after she finished reading through some doc.u.ments, the two of them agreed to meet at a coffee shop near the Dongfang Group.

It seemed like he was not in great condition…

His face was a little pale. As she looked at him, she instantly frowned. She walked over in a few steps and sat down across him.

“How did you end up like this? Have you been busy recently?” A concerned tone was heard. It was as simple and natural as before.

Lan Xiu ordered a cup of herbal tea to warm her stomach. The waiter served it just as she sat down.

Seeing that she had lowered her head to take a sip of the herbal tea, Lan Xiu picked up the cup of coffee in front of him and took a sip. His dark eyes could not hide the hint of melancholy. He looked at her for a long time before he said in a low voice, “I have a cold. I’m fine. How have you been recently? You look pretty good.”

“I’m fine. You have to take care of yourself. It’s not like you’re in a hurry to become a top-notch big shot. Didn’t we already say that we shouldn’t work too hard? Also I should be the one looking for you. I didn’t expect you to come looking for me first.”

Dongfang Liuyun held the cup lightly with one hand and lowered her eyes indifferently.

“I thought that if I didn’t come looking for you, you wouldn’t come to me.”

Lan Xiu looked at her and his tone was a little desolate. After pondering for a moment, he continued, “The night after the day I returned, I was waiting for you downstairs at your office. I wanted to give you a surprise, but you surprised me instead.”

Dongfang Liuyun paused for a moment when Lan Xiu said this. She looked up at him and thought for a moment. She seemed to have suddenly thought of something and asked…

“Is it about me and Qi Lei getting married?”

There was not the slightest ripple in her calm tone. Dongfang Liuyun lowered her head as she spoke. She continued to drink her tea, “I wanted to talk to you about this. The day after you rejected me, I agreed to his proposal.”

“Why? You don’t like him at all, yet you still agreed to his proposal?”

Lan Xiu’s hands tightened slightly as he looked at Dongfang Liuyun’s unperturbed face. “Why isn’t it person me? Liuyun… Why isn’t it me? You know very well…”

“You know the reason, Lan Xiu. You’re right. If you had agreed to me back then, a lot of things would have changed. We’re so familiar with each other. You know me very well, and I know you very well too.”

Although she said this, it was like a sharp blade that pierced into Lan Xiu’s heart…
