Dongfang Rou’er did not expect Qi Lei to ask this. She was stunned and could not answer. She could only frown at Qi Lei. Her eyes were still filled with awkwardness, and her beautiful face was slightly red.

“It seems that President Qi doesn’t treat us as his own people. We’ve been to Vice President w.a.n.g Chun’s place before, but it seems that he… is probably under Fourth Sister’s special care, right?”

Dongfang Rou’er smiled bitterly and took a deep breath. “She’s always been like this. I should have guessed it long ago. Fujiwara was the same before. Other than relying on these things, can’t she show off her true abilities?”

As she finished speaking, Dongfang Rou’er’s voice seemed to contain some resentment. She unconsciously clenched her fists, and her entire being seemed to be in a tense state.

“Relying on these? I don’t think there’s anything wrong with a woman relying on her own man. Fifth Lady, with your personality, you’re not very likable in front of men. Your words insinuate other things. I’ve seen many women like you. A humble smile and a reserved manner, and doing things realistically will make your temperament better. Don’t treat people as dolls with low IQ. At least, I don’t think highly of you on this point.”

Qi Lei’s deep tone was filled with coldness.

Hearing this, Dongfang Rou’er’s expression became even uglier. She pursed her lips. Even though she wanted to say something, looking at Qi Lei’s calm expression, she understood that Dongfang Liuyun was probably not ordinary in Qi Lei’s heart.

Moreover, just based on the fact that Qi Lei dared to announce their marriage to the media and even gave a large portion of Qi Kai’s shares to Dongfang Liuyun as a dowry, just based on this, she was envious of Dongfang Liuyun’s charm and ability!

Was Fujiwara not the same?

That lunatic would probably fall out with the Fujiwara family for Dongfang Liuyun and give up everything!

Thinking of this, Dongfang Rou’er suddenly felt an imbalance in her heart.

She was also the pearl of the Dongfang family, but her grandfather cared about her more than anyone else. Many people favored her, but she…

Even though Jin Sheng was already engaged to her and was about to get married, he still had his guard up against her. Furthermore, the two of them could not be considered to be in love. With such a transactional marriage, would she, Dongfang Rou’er, really be happy?

“Consider me misspoken. However, since President Qi is already married to Fourth Sister, please treat her well. You’re not the only one who has such deep feelings for Fourth Sister. It’s really hard to explain things like feelings. The person who once had deeper feelings and loved her may not be the one she ends up with. Fourth Sister let go quite frankly, how would she know the pain and suffering of others?”

As she said this, Dongfang Rou’er sighed softly. She turned her gaze to look at Qi Lei’s handsome face, which was still as calm as water. Finally, she smiled, “It seems like President Qi is confident in the relations.h.i.+p between the two of you. In that case, I wish you both happiness and good luck.”

“Thank you,” Qi Lei replied with this last sentence. He gave her a sideways glance and suddenly walked down the stairs with some disinterest, “I appreciate Fifth Lady’s kind intentions. It’s just that you’re thinking too much. My marriage to Liuyun has nothing to do with anything else. It’s only about the relations.h.i.+p, some things aren’t as self-righteous as you thinkthey are. The Fifth Lady will soon become a member of the Jin family. I hope you can be a good Mrs. Jin.”

When Qi Lei said this, Dongfang Rou’er paused for a moment. She had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but she could not pinpoint what it was.

By the time she snapped out of her daze, Qi Lei had already walked down the stairs. His tall and straight body slowly pa.s.sed through the plum blossom forest in front of him. After a while, he disappeared in front of her.

…

At this moment, in Song Siting’s study.

Song siting’s expression was not looking too good. Dongfang Liuyun was sitting on the sofa opposite her. Song Siting wanted to get up to make tea, but Dongfang Liuyun was one step ahead of her. She reached out to stop her

“Let me do it. You’re recovering from your wound. Don’t drink these things for now. Just drink some hot water.”

As she spoke, she poured some water for Song Siting. Song Siting raised her eyes and glanced at her before quietly reaching out to take it.

“What did Grandmother say to you earlier? You don’t look too well.”

Dongfang Liuyun leaned back on the sofa behind her. She looked at Song Siting and asked in a low voice.

Song Siting’s dark eyes flickered when she heard this. She calmed down too. She lowered her eyes and looked at the steaming cup in her hand. A long while later, she finally said in a low voice, “It’s nothing, just repeating the old saying. I’m used to it. You know that my relations.h.i.+p with your grandmother is so tense. There’s no way to improve it.”

“No way to improve it? It’s something that you don’t want to improve, right? There are many things that you insist on if you think that you are right. I admire that about you. However, one must always consider one’s stance when considering any matter. I don’t want to comment on the so-called right and wrong. You can be as happy as you like. You can do whatever you want.”

When Dongfang Liuyun spoke about these things, her tone was filled with weariness and annoyance. Song Siting was not a fool, so of course, she could tell.

“I know that you’ve always disliked our Dongfang family’s profane style. It’s not as n.o.ble and righteous as what you insist on in your heart. But this is my life, my father’s life, and the life of the entire Dongfang family. Our life is a big dye vat. I’m not afraid of letting you know too that as long as I still want that position, I won’t be able to stay too honorable in time.”

“So, is it true? If one day, I’m also targeted, as a mother, will you personally send me to prison?”

As she said this, Dongfang Liuyun stared intently at Song Siting’s eyes. Her pitch-black eyes had a hint of desolation in them—

“That’s actually what grandmother meant. She hoped that you could consider father and me first before thinking about anything else. After so many years, can’t you see what she means? She has always hated the bad effects caused by internal strife.”

Dongfang Liuyun spoke word by word, and when she heard it, it was like a gust of cold wind that gradually blew away the haze in Song Siting’s heart.

“So, you and your father have been dissatisfied with me all these years, but you just endured it and didn’t say anything?” Song Siting asked in a daze.

“You know my att.i.tude very well. As for father, he just cares about you and doesn’t want you to feel wronged.”
