When Qi Lei rushed over, the banquet had already begun. It was Dongfang Yi’s opening speech.

Dongfang Liuyun was sitting far away on the stairs outside. She could hear waves of warm applause coming from inside. She was a little tired. Since the event had started, her work could be considered finished.

After a busy day, she did not even have time to eat lunch. She was quite tired. Only now did she feel that her legs were not hers. They were numb and sore!

“Are you waiting for me?”

Not long after Dongfang Liuyun sat down, a familiar and deep voice suddenly sounded in front of her. She immediately looked up and indeed, Qi Lei had appeared in front of her without her noticing—

He was wearing a casual suit that was as low-profile as usual. He did not deliberately dress up, but it matched the light-colored professional dress that she was wearing now.

Behind her was Yang Sheng and a few bodyguards in black.

“Why are you so late?”

“It’s cold on the ground, get up!”

The two of them said almost at the same time, but they had the same tacit understanding

Qi Lei reached out to her, and she reached out to him at the same time.

He pulled her up and answered, “I went back to the company to deal with some things. Later, I realized that I was late. It should have started inside, right? Why are you sitting here by yourself?”

Dongfang Liuyun staggered and her mind went blank for a moment.

She had always had low blood sugar.

Seeing her like this, Qi Lei suddenly thought of something. He suddenly reached into his pocket and a few delicately packaged chocolate appeared in his hand.

“I grabbed a few. They taste pretty good. Try them.”

Dongfang Liuyun narrowed her eyes at him and took one without hesitation. She peeled one and stuffed it into her mouth. As she chewed, she replied, “I’ve been busy all day and my legs are weak from exhaustion. It’s going on normally inside. They’ll be watching, I’m taking a breather.”

“Father didn’t come over?”

Qi Lei was very considerate as he helped her fix her slightly wrinkled clothes.—

“He drove by before the start of the show and came down to take a look. He rarely meddles in these matters. At this moment, he should be discussing about Myanmar matters with his friends. I have a feeling that the situation this time is quite serious. He’s been dealing with those matters for the past few days,” said Dongfang Liuyun.

Qi Lei paused with a smile and said, “Don’t worry. I have a friend over there. Let him take care of it when the time comes.”

Dongfang Liuyun nodded, “Yes, it’s fine. Father has always been low-key and cautious. The situation over there is unstable, so it’s normal for his business to be affected. Alright, let’s go in. It’s been quite a while since we started inside. I took down the things that you sent, it’s not worth it.”

“I’m surprised you’d have such thoughts too.”

“I admit that I’m very generous with my money, but…”

“You’re really generous with these things, but you’re actually very strict with yourself. I know many people with your status who are wrapped up in big brands.”

Qi Lei glanced at her.

“Real taste doesn’t need to be wrapped up in big brands. I’m not used to living a luxurious life. Of course, antiques are an exception! My money doesn’t come from the wind. I’m not afraid to tell you that money is something I quite like. The money that my father usually gives me usually has to go through Madam Song’s restrictions. If I didn’t work a few more jobs, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have been able to support myself.”

She spoke very frankly.

“Also, I don’t mind people saying that I’m living off a rich man, like living off of you.”

“You’re an heiress of the Dongfang Group.”

“But the company isn’t mine now. Those halos belong to the family. What I said just now was also my ability.”

“Your views are really surprising, but why do I feel like this you’re looking a little like me back then? Do you have a moral bottom line?”

Qi Lei looked at her with interest as he leisurely put one hand into his trouser pocket.

“You’re single and I’m a bachelor, what do you think? This tastes quite nice, is there more?”

As she spoke, she had already dug into the pocket behind him.

“No, I just took a few. Do you like chocolate too?”

“Of course. I used to eat it a lot when I was abroad, but I haven’t really thought about it in the past two years. You should eat less of this stuff. I keep feeling like your stomach has grown lately. This stuff is similar to a fertilizer.”

Qi Lei… was a little speechless, but he still touched his stomach suspiciously. He did not feel like he had grown any more…

…

Inside the exhibition center.

When the two of them entered, the auction inside was already in progress. The new products were already in the first half of the show. In fact, it was similar to a broadcast commercial, and the effect was pretty good.

The seats that were arranged were basically full.

The couple found two seats at the back and sat down quietly. The lighting in the venue made it so that the two of them were not noticed. Everyone’s eyes were focused on the stage in front, and Yang Sheng was sitting on the other side of Qi Lei, behind him was the bodyguard in black.

“Have some, I’m not expecting the steak to be so delicious. The snacks are still okay, have some.”

Dongfang Liuyun’s interest was not on the stage in front of her. She was famished. She picked up her knife and fork and cut the steak on the plate neatly. Her skills with the knife skills was obviously good. After cutting, she moved the plate of food she had cut to Qi Lei, and then took the plate in front of Qi Lei and cut it neatly.

Qi Lei did not say anything. Instead, he watched her cut it. Yang Sheng, who was at the side, was naturally not thinking about the stage in front of him. Instead, he smiled and held his head as he watched the couple in silence.

At this moment, Yang Sheng suddenly felt that this was the most beautiful scenery in the world!

“The ring on display now is specially designed for young people. It’s a pair of rings. Many young people prefer platinum rings. I think this light-colored gemstone is a pretty good choice for a ring actually. This one, for example, is a more modest version, the meaning behind is mutual respect in a marriage, and mutual help in humble circ.u.mstances. Inside of the band there are sculptures of dragons and phoenixes. Young people these days don’t pay too much attention to the cultural treasures left behind by our ancestors. We’ve been to many places over the years and understand a variety of cultures. In the end, we still prefer our own country’s customs and culture.”

As Dongfang Liuyun ate, she explained to Qi lei.

“So, this batch of new products seem to have elements that have our own characteristics in them?”

Qi Lei naturally noticed the problem.

“Yes, this is also why I’m holding a charity banquet to publicize it. Many philanthropists, I don’t care if they’re real philanthropists or fake philanthropists, and I don’t care why they’re trying to increase their exposure, as long as they show their intention to truly help those in need, then it’s better than those who do nothing but point fingers at others. It’s not the process that matters, but the result.”
