“I’m sorry, Master Qi. I didn’t mean anything by it. It’s just…”
Noticing that Qi Lei’s expression was not right, Yang Sheng quickly stood up and explained apologetically.
Qi Lei raised his hand slightly and gestured for him to leave.
Yang Sheng was stunned for a moment before he nodded. “Alright, I’ll leave first then.”
Taking a deep breath, Yang Sheng suppressed the panic in his heart. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and left silently.
…
Qi Lei slowly closed his eyes when he heard the sound of the door closing. He calmed down for a long time. When he opened his eyes again, he had already regained his calm…
When Dongfang Liuyun rushed over, Qi Lei was in a meeting. Yang Sheng had his secretary bring Dongfang Liuyun to Qi Lei’s office. At the same time, the meeting was still ongoing in the meeting room.
Qi Lei’s expression did not look good. The manager who was making the report was also very cautious, afraid that he would offend the boss above.
Qi Lei’s gaze was fixed on the document in front of him. There was no expression on his face. When he looked at the people below, his entire body could not help but tense up as he carefully looked at Qi Lei above him.
Qi Lei flipped through the document in his hand and frowned slightly. After a long while, he was about to say something in a deep voice when Yang Sheng suddenly walked over and whispered in his ear, “Master Qi, Missus is here. She’s waiting in your office.”
Qi Lei was stunned when he heard that. He paused for a moment before closing the document. His handsome face softened a little. He suddenly looked down and said faintly, “I won’t comment on the proposal for the time being. I’ll think of a solution to the problem that was raised just now when I get back. The same time on Friday afternoon, I’ll still be waiting for you here. If you still hand in a proposal that looks like this, forget about coming to work anymore.”
Qi Lei said this calmly before standing up and walking towards the door.
He pushed open the office door and scanned the office with his elite gaze. Soon, he noticed Dongfang Liuyun, who was standing by the bookshelf and taking a book from it.
She was so engrossed in reading that she did not notice him even though he had been standing in front of the door for a while.
After a while, he walked over. In the blink of an eye, he was behind her. Following her line of sight, he looked at the open book in front of her. Only then did he realize that she was reading a book about Feng Shui.
“You’re so engrossed in reading? Just take it home later. Didn’t I tell you to go home and rest first? How’s Mother?”
As Qi Lei spoke, he leaned over and sat in the chair on the side.
Dongfang Liuyun had already reacted when he approached. She turned around calmly and looked at him with her starry eyes. She closed the book in hand and handed it to him, “It’s nothing serious. I only came over after the doctor gave her a checkup. Secretary Ding is over there, so I’m relieved. Wang Chun gave me the materials, I’ve signed it and put it on your desk.”
“It’s almost time to get off work. Let’s pack up and go home.”
“You go back. I’ll go to the hospital later to take a look.”
Qi Lei thought for a moment and said as he looked up at her.
Dongfang Liuyun shrugged and said nonchalantly, “There’s no need for that. You might not be able to take care of her better than those nurses. Besides, you haven’t had a good rest in a while. Your eyes are bloodshot. Are you sure you can keep on like this?”
As she spoke, she did not wait for his reply. She had already begun to help him pack up the things on the table. Qi Lei continued to sit quietly as he watched her busying herself. His gaze was gentle.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
“Come in,” Qi Lei responded indifferently. The door was quickly pushed open and Bai Xiaowei walked in with two cups of tea.
“President Qi…”
Just now, she heard Assistant Yang ask her to bring two cups of hot tea that can warm bellies. She was curious as to what kind of guest could make Assistant Yang be so courteous. Naturally, she looked up and sized them up, soon, she saw the woman who was packing her things at the table and the man who was quietly watching the busy woman.
The woman had her head lowered, her long hair reaching her waist. It was hanging down wantonly and intertwined in front of her chest like a dark cloud. She was dressed in a very simple and comfortable outfit
She wore a pair of slightly white low-waisted jeans and a rather thick light-colored shirt on her upper body. The hem of the shirt hung loosely and was very loose. When she wore it, she looked very slim. Her facial features were very exquisite and beautiful, however, she exuded a sense of extraordinary elegance.
Bai Xiaowei had never seen a woman with such a combination of beauty and temperament. She was indifferent and otherworldly, but she looked very harmonious.
In the past, most of the women who came to look for their President Qi were dressed up in all kinds of beautiful and noble clothes. Their temperaments were also very deliberate. Especially with their President Qi’s status and status, there were too many women who tried to move up the ranks. However, they had never seen their President Qi act in a special manner for any woman before.
But now…
Who was this woman?
She could actually make their President Qi look at her quietly with such a warm gaze?
Bai Xiaowei had never seen Dongfang Liuyun before, but she vaguely felt that she looked familiar. She did not know if she was a celebrity who was currently in the limelight, but what was the relationship between this woman and their President Qi?
From the way President Qi treated her, it seemed that he was very tolerant. Moreover, there was a hint of indulgence in his eyes?
Could it be that she had seen wrongly?
Bai Xiaowei was stunned for a while, but she did not bring the tea over. It was not until Dongfang Liuyun raised her gaze and looked at her that Bai Xiaowei could not help but pause. Only then did she calm down.
Qi Lei also noticed Dongfang Liuyun’s reaction and followed her gaze to look at Bai Xiaowei.
“What’s the matter?”
His deep voice sounded a little unhappy.
“President Qi…”
Bai Xiaowei finally came back to her senses and quickly brought the tea over. “Assistant Yang asked me to make two cups of flower tea and bring them in. Take a look.”
“Bring them down. We’re going back anyway.”
Qi Lei stood up and glanced at Bai Xiaowei. He frowned and did not say anything else. He took the briefcase from Dongfang Liuyun and put his arm around her shoulder as they walked out of the door.
“President Qi…”
Bai Xiaowei was stunned for a moment. She quickly turned her head to look at the two figures, but they had already disappeared outside the door.
“The woman just now was…”
Dongfang Liuyun naturally noticed Qi Lei’s abnormality and could not help but ask. She thought for a moment and said, “Could it be that you’re secretly keeping a mistress? Something doesn’t feel right.”
