Qi Lei raised his handsome eyebrows and unhurriedly placed some good dishes into her bowl. After looking at her for a while, he lowered his eyes—

“As long as you’re not a fool, you can tell that someone deliberately made a fuss about our matter this time. You’ve won such a huge project, and you’re now a prominent person. Lin Yuanyuan is your direct superior, and you’re an insider. The person who made things difficult for you before will definitely take this opportunity to do you a favor.”

Qi Lei a.n.a.lyzed, his dark eyes flowing with an unfathomable light. The corners of his mouth curled up into an evil smile—

“On this point, I admire Grandmother’s wisdom. She didn’t let everyone name their candidate during the meeting, so she left room for everyone to ease up. If she immediately let you take the position during the meeting, that would have pushed you to the teeth of the storm. Whether she did it intentionally or not, it can be considered to have solved a big problem for you.”

Qi Lei had calculated this before. He had wanted to figure out Dongfang Shuman’s att.i.tude towards Dongfang Liuyun. Of course, he also wanted to test Dongfang Shuman’s depth. He had no doubt that after this incident, the person who would take over the position of the Lin Yuanyuan would definitely be Dongfang Liuyun.

However, how could Dongfang Liuyun take over the position inconspicuously and not become a thorn in the eyes of the Lin Yuanyuan and Dongfang Rou’er? That was the key!

That was why he had w.a.n.g Chun arrange it this way. Dongfang Yi had unintentionally obtained the evidence that Lin Yuanyuan had exposed. After waiting for so long, he had finally gotten this good opportunity. Everything was just as he had predicted. He was really lucky.

When Qi Lei said this, Dongfang Liuyun was also stunned. Previously, she had also felt that Dongfang Shuman’s att.i.tude made her feel a little incredulous. She had never seen her like this before.

…

Of course, she did not know that Qi Lei had planned all of this behind her for a long time just to pave a path for her and help her ascend to the position that should belong to her. This was also an unspoken agreement between him and Dongfang Gan of course.

“If that’s the case, I need to reconsider my relations.h.i.+p with Grandmother.”

Dongfang Liuyun thought about it for a moment before saying calmly.

Dongfang Shuman’s att.i.tude towards her and Qi Lei was also very subtle. She did not say whether she would accept or oppose it. Dongfang Shuman was always like this. Many things were left open for others to guess, even Dongfang Liuyun sometimes found it difficult to understand what Dongfang Shuman was thinking.

However, when it came to scheming, she admired Dongfang Shuman. Back when her grandfather, Elder Dongfang, was still alive, he was also full of admiration for Dongfang Shuman.

“Hmm?”

Qi Lei did not understand what Dongfang Liuyun meant and looked at her in confusion.

Dongfang Liuyun swallowed the food in her mouth. She tugged at her loose collar and said, “The last time I went back, I told Grandmother about you, but her att.i.tude was quite strange.”

“You don’t have to pay attention to their att.i.tude. It’s us who’ll have to live our lives.”

Qi Lei reached out and grabbed a tissue and handed it to her.

Dongfang Liuyun accepted it tacitly. She wiped her mouth and took a deep breath, “I know, it’s good that we agree on that, but we can’t avoid some uncertain factors, especially what we carry on our backs.”

Dongfang Liuyun suddenly stopped. She looked up and looked at him silently. “Sometimes, I really think that if we had met 10 years earlier, we might not have had such a hard time.”

“Met 10 years earlier?”

Qi Lei raised his handsome eyebrows and could not help but laugh. “I was probably still studying abroad then. Moreover, even if we met at that time, you might not have liked me. I was indeed quite a jerk back then.”

Hearing this, Dongfang Liuyun suddenly smiled. She rested her chin on one hand and looked at him with interest. “How bad? Tell me about it. How many girlfriends have you had? Have you ever done anything that made women sad?”

When Dongfang Liuyun asked this question, even she herself found it unbelievable!

She never cared about anyone’s past, especially things that might affect their relations.h.i.+p to a certain extent. However, at this moment, subconsciously, she wanted to know about his relations.h.i.+p history.

Qi Lei was stunned by this question. After a moment, he looked at Dongfang liuyun with a deep gaze. His hoa.r.s.e voice was very emotional—

“Do you mind my relations.h.i.+p history?”

Dongfang Liuyun leisurely stretched out her chopsticks and placed a dish into his bowl. She said nonchalantly, “I don’t mind at all. At our age, who doesn’t have some relations.h.i.+p history? Isn’t it the same for me too? Tell me, I’ve never heard you talk about it before. You know me pretty well.”

“Actually, there’s nothing much to talk about. I had a few girlfriends back then, and we broke up because of different ideals. There were some that left a deep impression, but after I returned to China, a lot has faded away, we don’t keep in touch anymore, and the past left with the wind. Don’t worry, although I’m not some good person, I’ve never mistreated women. I broke up with them amicably.”

Qi Lei did not seem to be in the mood to talk about these things. It had been a long time, and there was nothing he could recall.

However, when he talked about this, the scene he saw downstairs at Dongfang Group suddenly flashed past his mind…

He thought about it for a moment. He wanted to ask her directly, but after thinking about it, there did not seem to be a need to ask. After all, they…

There was nothing wrong with giving her some privacy. She was a very rational and rea.s.suring woman. He thought that he should be able to trust her with his back, just like in the game.

“Liuyun?”

Thinking of this, he suddenly stopped what he was doing and looked at her silently.

“Hmm?”

Dongfang Liuyun met his gaze. “What’s wrong?”

“Are we a couple who trusts and protects each other?”

Qi Lei’s hoa.r.s.e voice sounded, and his eyes were abnormally bright. He looked at her without blinking.

Dongfang Liuyun was silent for a moment, then nodded. “Of course.”

Hearing that, Qi Lei smiled. Then, he retracted his gaze and quietly lowered his head to continue eating.

Dongfang Liuyun, on the other hand, was still looking at him. The faint smile on his face fell into her eyes, and for some reason, she felt a warmth in her heart—

This man seemed to be getting more and more attractive the more she looked at him. In the past, she had never realized that he looked so good when he lowered his head and ate quietly…

Later on, she could not help but laugh out loud.

He hurriedly raised his head to look at her and asked, “Why are you laughing instead of eating?”
