The sharp tip of the knife was pointed at Fujiwara’s throat. The sharp cold light forced Fujiwara to subconsciously narrow his eyes. However, there was no fear on his cold face. He was still as calm as ever.
When he looked up, he saw that Dongfang Liuyun was holding the sharp knife against his throat. She was looking at him coldly.
Fujiwara’s face fell into silence, and he looked at Dongfang Liuyun. “If you can do it, then do it. With one strike, not only can you avenge Lan Qi, you can also end everything between us.”
“I’m not interested in being buried with you, and you don’t have to provoke me. Let go!”
Dongfang Liuyun tilted her wrist, and the tip of the knife in her hand was close to Fujiwara’s throat. The sharp knife had already left a red mark on Fujiwara’s neck, and a bright red spread along the tip of the knife.
Not only did Fujiwara not let go, he even tightened his grip—
“You’re not my match, Liuyun.”
“Then we’ll have to try and find out!”
Dongfang Liuyun narrowed her eyes coldly, and the sharp knife in her hand stabbed forward without the slightest hesitation. Fujiwara, on the other hand, took a step faster and clamped the sharp blade between his two fingers. His figure flashed past like lightning!
With a clear whistle, another sharp knife on the knife rack was pulled out.
‘Ding!’
The sound of metal colliding could be heard. In the dimly lit study room, a faint white light suddenly interweaved and flickered.
Dongfang Liuyun did not show any mercy when she attacked, because no one knew Fujiwara’s sword and knife skills better than her!
‘Bang—’
The cold light swept past, and the vase and coffee table by the side were shattered into pieces in the blink of an eye. The ground was instantly in a mess…
…
At the same time, by the South River, Qi Lei was discussing the progress of the project with Vice President Zhang Lan of Glory World Corporation. Suddenly, Yang Sheng walked over with an uncertain expression.
“Master Qi, Missus went to Cloud Residence!”
Yang Sheng lowered his voice and whispered into Qi Lei’s ear.
Hearing this, Qi Lei was stunned for a moment. A complicated emotion flashed across his black eyes. After a moment, he returned to normal. His gaze did not move away from the blueprint in front of him. Instead, he calmly replied, “How did you know?”
“When I just came from Dongfang Group, Dongfang Rou’er said that she seemed to have sent people to keep an eye on Missus recently. Oh right, when we were investigating that Mr. Ge, our people even took a photo of her having afternoon tea with Mr. Ge. Take a look at this.”
As Yang Sheng spoke, he handed a photo to Qi Lei.
Qi Lei then looked up from the document unhurriedly and reached out to take the photo that Yang Sheng handed over. After taking a quick glance, it was indeed Dongfang Rou’er and Mr. Ge’s figure in the photo.
“How did Dongfang Rou’er get in contact with this person?”
Qi Lei asked in confusion.
“I’m not too sure either. I’ve never heard of them knowing each other before. However, I feel that it’s a little unusual for Dongfang Rou’er to be in contact with Mr. Ge at this time.”
Qi Lei nodded as he listened. “Keep a close eye on them and see what they’re up to.”
“Yes, Master Qi! Then, about the Missus…” Yang Sheng asked tentatively.
“I know about this. She told me this morning that Driver Wang sent her over.”
Qi Lei answered nonchalantly, then looked down at the blueprint in his hand.
Seeing this, Yang Sheng naturally did not dare to say anything more and retreated carefully.
Suddenly, only Qi Lei and the silent Vice President Zhang Lan were left by the riverside.
“President Qi’s feelings for Missus Qi is really enviable sometimes.” Zhang Lan smiled.
“What’s there to be envious about? Aren’t your Chairman Mu and Xi Xiaye even more enviable? They’ve been out for quite some time now, yet they haven’t called back. They’re really willing to leave these heavy responsibilities to us.”
Qi Lei did not even lift his eyelids. He took a pen and made a note on the blueprint as he said this.
“Chairman Mu knows that with President Qi around, he’s at ease. Naturally, he’ll be at ease on vacation with Missus. Oh right, President Qi, I heard that Dongfang Yu from the Dongfang Group left City Z and his staff suddenly moved out. Should they send someone over to discuss the materials? Dongfang Yu was in charge of this matter before.”
Zhang Lan suddenly remembered this matter.
“Don’t worry, Liuyun will come over to discuss this matter with you two in person the day after tomorrow.”
Dongfang Shuman was indeed a veteran. After he found Dongfang Yi the other day, Dongfang Yi had indeed transferred Dongfang Yu out and temporarily hid from the limelight. Right now, Dongfang Ren and Dongfang Yi were in a fierce battle, especially on this South River Project. Dongfang Yi was keeping a close eye on Dongfang Ren to catch any flaws. This made Dongfang Ren very tired, and the resentment in his heart grew day by day!
In the past few days of the regular meetings, the two of them could not hold back their anger and directly opened fire on the meeting table, making the shareholders present very dissatisfied. However, they could only hold it in for now, but they were secretly thinking in their hearts, the fight between the two could push the company’s interests out. If the company fell into their hands, how would that be?
It was also because of this that everyone suddenly missed Dongfang Gan, who was far away in Myanmar. They would only be at ease if he personally took charge!
Dongfang Shuman adopted a nonchalant attitude as she watched the fight between the two of them coldly. As long as it did not substantially harm the interests of Dongfang Group, she did not mind standing by and watching.
“So President Qi has already made plans. Forgive me for being presumptuous.” Zhang Lan said apologetically.
Qi Lei put away the blueprint and waved his hand. “It’s okay. I admire Vice President Zhang’s dedication. I’ll need you to take care of Liuyun for the South River Project in the future. She’s new to this new project, so she’s not familiar with many places.”
Zhang Lan smiled. “You’re too kind, President Qi. This is the first time I’ve seen you say something like that. It seems like you’re very attentive to Missus Qi.”
Qi Lei smiled but did not answer. He just handed the blueprints to Zhang Lan and turned to walk along the railing by the river. Zhang Lan followed him.
“Chairman Mu told us before he left. Don’t worry, President Qi. We believe in Miss Dongfang’s ability. We’ve done some research on the Dongfang Group. It’s quite complicated internally, and we’ve heard that President Gan isn’t in the city. It must be very difficult for Miss Dongfang to hold on by herself.”
“She’s always been strong…”
“But from what I see, President Qi, you seem to be a little uneasy. Is it because you’re worried about Miss Dongfang?” Zhang Lan asked.
Qi Lei did not answer. He only slowed down.
“President Qi, no matter how strong a woman is, she still needs to be cherished and protected. I’ll be fine here. You should go over. You haven’t been in good condition all morning…”
