Dongfang Liuyun replied indifferently.

When Dongfang Shuman heard this, her heart also became somewhat solemn—

“Regarding the mine, you should also pay more attention to it. The current situation is not like a few years ago. You should be making more plans. These resources will eventually dry up. Moreover, it will also be very pa.s.sive. A transformation is something that will happen sooner or later.”

“However, a transformation is not an easy thing, especially for a family business like ours. You should have such an awareness now.”

As Dongfang Shuman said this, she lowered her gaze and took a sip of tea.

Dongfang Liuyun’s elegant face was also stained with some solemnity. After thinking for a moment, she replied, “I’ve discussed this with Father before, but this is not something that can happen overnight.”

“It’s good that you know. It’s not easy to transform a company, especially a family business with many problems. I’ve been trying to slowly transform the company over the years. I’ve been busy for most of my life, and I’m a little exhausted now. It’s up to you guys to carry out this task.”

“This is a big project. Grandmother doesn’t need to worry too much. We’ll take it to heart. Recently, Vice President Zhang and Father have been working hard too. Grandmother should be very clear about this matter.”

“You still need to get used to the company’s matters. It’s not easy to get to this point, and I don’t want anything to go wrong. Otherwise, I won’t be biased. After lunch, the two of you come to my study.” Dongfang Shuman thought for a moment and said.

“Okay,” Dongfang Liuyun responded and exchanged a look with Qi Lei. Qi lei nodded at her.

…

The wind was very strong outside. When Dongfang Liuyun pushed the door open, a strong cold wind blew against her face and rolled up the curtains on the floor.

Outside her room’s balcony was the backyard of the Dongfang old mansion. Standing in front of the railing, she could see half of the backyard below.

Dongfang Liuyun stood in the cold wind and silently looked at everything below. The pavilion at the side and the winding corridor…

When Grandfather Dongfang was still alive, he always liked to fiddle with some flowers and plants in the corridor, or he would personally put new iron wires on the fence at the side to fix it.

Now, those by the small fence beside the pavilion was all planted by Elder Dongfang himself, but now it looked a little pale.

Hearing the footsteps behind her, she slowly turned her head and saw the man standing behind her.

“What are you thinking about? This place is a little cold.”

As he said that, a coat draped over her shoulders.

Dongfang Liuyun reached out to pull the coat and said indifferently, “It’s nothing. I haven’t seen this place for a long time. I just feel a little nostalgic.”

“Didn’t you say that you don’t like memories?”

“Not liking them doesn’t mean that they won’t come back to me. In this house, the only person who could leave a deep impression on me was my grandfather. It’s a pity that he left quite early. Otherwise, if he were still here, he would definitely like you very much.”

Dongfang Liuyun’s tone was calm. Listening to her, one could hear a hint of disappointment.

“How do you know that he would like me? Maybe he’s like Grandmother and has some tests for me as well?” Qi Lei chuckled and asked in return.

Dongfang Liuyun gave him a sidelong glance, “Grandfather isn’t like Grandmother. He’s like Father. He’s a very easygoing person. He never really forced me to accept anything. As long as it’s something that I like, he’ll always agree to it. In my eyes, he’s always been a gentle and refined old gentleman. He’s a true aristocrat. He dotes on and tolerates Grandmother. He also treats Father and Aunt with both gentleness and firmness. He’s the most humble and courteous elder I’ve ever met. He’s the best father.”

Elder Dongfang had a deep impact on Dongfang Liuyun. Now that she recalled it, Qi Lei could feel the heartfelt respect from her. He could not help but feel a little surprised at this Elder Dongfang who he would never meet, but even more, he felt a respect for him.

To be able to make someone like him feel respect, they must be an extraordinary person.

“May he rest in peace. Don’t think too much. As long as that’s the case, I’m afraid all we can do is remember them.”

Qi Lei seemed to sympathize with her on this point.

“Yes, sometimes, it seems to be the case. The things and people we care about are not something that we can truly protect. When Grandfather was still alive, he often asked me to come back. I didn’t think too deeply about it back then. When he left, I realized what I had missed.”

“My grandfather pa.s.sed away when I was very young. From what I remember, he doted on me very much. Even then, I wasn’t sensible and didn’t put much effort into remembering him. Now that I think about it, my memory is a little blurry.”

As Dongfang Liuyun finished speaking, Qi Lei said faintly.

“I am a little luckier than you. I admit that.”

Dongfang Liuyun smiled calmly and allowed him to hold her shoulders. She subconsciously reached out to grab his hand and said, “But now, we seem to be equally lucky.”

Qi Lei paused for a moment before smiling. She let him hold her and looked down at the pavilion.

“I didn’t expect Grandmother to accept you like this. What did you say to her that day? And Father, how did he stand on your side? He was…” Dongfang Liuyun probed.

“That’s is our agreement. You just need to know that we can handle them,” Qi Lei replied with a mysterious smile without revealing anything.

Dongfang Liuyun rolled her eyes at him. “Where’s your sincerity?”

“It’s gone.” Qi Lei replied with a chuckle.

“When you meet them later, there will inevitably be some gossip. You…”

Dongfang Liuyun thought of the meeting later and was worried that Qi Lei would…

“Do as you see fit. Don’t betray me just because you hear something. I’m a person who holds grudges. Otherwise, I’ll have ways to deal with you when I get home.”

Dongfang Liuyun’s tone became a little serious. As she spoke, her face was stern. It was the first time Qi Lei had seen her like this.

Qi Lei raised his handsome brows and quickly expressed his loyalty. “Don’t worry, Mrs. Qi. I wouldn’t dare!”

“It’s good that you wouldn’t dare. We’ll soon enter a state of deep suffering. You haven’t fought those people head-on, so you won’t know how powerful they are. I hope they can behave themselves.”

Dongfang Liuyun was naturally used to such a life, so she did not feel anything at the moment, but Qi Lei…

“Fourth Lady, Master, President Shu wants you to go take a seat downstairs!”

Just as Dongfang Liuyun finished speaking, the voice of a servant came from outside.
