The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu’s Pampered Wife Chapter 1377 - So-Called Love and Hate 5

Chapter 1377 So-Called Love and Hate 5

When he did not hear Qi Lei’s answer, Yang Sheng turned and looked carefully at Qi Lei. Upon seeing that his expression had darkened and that he did not seem to plan on answering, he inhaled while hesitating, then Yang Sheng continued softly, “Master Qi, previously, CEO Wang and…”
“I never thought of having anything to do with the Wang family, and I don’t want to have any contact with the Qi family even more. Don’t bring them up in front of me anymore. We shall go our separate ways, and I’ll find my own way. Who says that I have to rely on someone else if I want to start over from scratch? I’ve long gotten used to such dire circumstances,” Qi Lei spoke nonchalantly. His dark eyes seemed extremely calm as if there was an inmeasurable deep abyss that one could not quite make sense of.
“Master Qi, it’s good that you can take it all on yourself, but you’ll be very tired, and things are finally looking up for us right now. I’m afraid—”
“What are you afraid of? I’m not even afraid! At this point, what is there to be afraid about? The new company will be launched as planned after the New Year. Whatever marketing plans must be executed on a large-scale and bombastically,” Qi Lei commanded while a sneer flashed across his lips.
He felt as if he had written himself off as hopeless and he began to act recklessly. Since there was no other way, he would just charge ahead with full force without any need to say much as it would all work out in the end. He just had to be aggressive and resolve whatever problems that came his way.
“Master Qi, well…” Yang Sheng was a little doubtful.
“Just do as I say. I have my own considerations. It’s good to be ambitious, but just demand what is ours, and do as much as we can. It’s when you’re certain and win in steadiness that that’s the real path to wealth and success. Since that’s the case, there’s nothing to worry about,” Qi Lei said.
“But, Master Qi—”
“No buts, Yang Sheng. Our journey to come will be much tougher than what it is right now. You’re very loyal and meticulous as well, but like me, you lack a fierce drive. We must consciously learn to avoid that next time,” Qi Lei said with a lowered voice.
Yang Sheng paused, then responded slowly, “I understand. I’ll be more careful.”
After that, the two of them did not speak anymore. The car drove ahead, and after about half an hour, Qi Lei sent Yang Sheng back to his neighborhood, before driving off.
The neighborhood that Yang Sheng stayed in was quite near University A’s campus. When Yang Sheng got down from the car, he unconsciously mentioned that it was Christmas Eve.
When Qi Lei drove along the road, he could see that on both sides of the walkways were young students and couples holding hands while strolling. This area was active with student activity, and there were quite a number of students.
When he passed by close to the entrance of University A, the steering wheel in Qi Lei’s hand shifted slightly. He thought about it, then drove into University A.
Previously, he had driven around with Dongfang Liuyun, so he knew where her office was, and he decided to go look for her.
The director of the teaching and research section was an uncle in his 50s who looked quite friendly. When he saw Qi Lei walk in, he was stunned for a moment. He fixed the glasses on his face, then sized Qi Lei up while he asked curiously, “Are you looking for Miss Dongfang?”
Nodding, Qi Lei walked up and smiled modestly. “Yes, may I know if she’s around?”
“Oh, you want to see Miss Dongfang…I think she’s gone for a lecture. Do you want to wait for her here? Her office is over there,” the director smiled and said.
“Oh, no need. I’ve got to see her urgently. May I know which class she’s in right now?”
“Mmm, let me take a look at her schedule. Ah, this one. Room 507.”
“Alright, thank you. I’ll go over then! Thank you!” Qi Lei thanked him gratefully, then left.
In Room 507 of the fifth block in University A, Dongfang Liuyun was lecturing the students. It was the last class of the semester. She mainly needed to arrange for the students the entire semester’s course synopsis and exam topics to focus on, and there were two classes of students together.
Because there had been some delays before this, she had to rearrange the lecture and put both classes together.
Qi Lei entered through the back door and chose a seat in the last row. He silently listened to Dongfang Liuyun lecture on the platform.
The students were usually quite interested in Dongfang Liuyun’s syllabus, so the class was rarely very noisy. In addition to that, the first few rows were filled with boys…
However, just as Qi Lei sat down, Dongfang Liuyun already noticed him. She looked at him, paused, and then returned to normal in the next second without reacting much.
After about ten minutes, the bell rang, indicating the end of the class. After Dongfang Liuyun was sure that the students had no more questions, she kept her textbook away unhurriedly.
Soon, a few of the boys went up to her and invited her for a meal.
“Miss Dongfang, do you want to eat together?”
“Yes, Miss Dongfang, let’s!”
“When you’ve all gotten excellent results, I’ll treat you to a meal,” Dongfang Liuyun calmly answered, then she held the textbook before leaving the classroom.
Qi Lei raised his brows and got up to leave the classroom to follow after her.
She did not walk that quickly either. At the staircase, she paused and waited for him to catch up.
“When did you get back?” Upon seeing him get closer, Dongfang Liuyun examined him briefly and her gaze soon stopped on his stiff arm that hid underneath the coat. She calmly asked, “Did you get hurt?”
Stunned, Qi Lei followed her gaze and looked at his arm. With a smile, he said, “I just got back. It’s a little scrape.”
“Have you eaten?” Dongfang Liuyun looked away and waved the textbook in her hand. “If you don’t mind, let’s eat together, but our staff canteen dishes aren’t like the ones a Master like you would be used to.”
Despite saying that, she had already begun to walk downstairs.
She wore a black figure-hugging dress today with a large coat on the outside and a pair of flat boots similar to combat boots. She had light makeup on her face and seemed quite distant, yet it also made one feel at peace.
She was not the kind of charming, elegant woman like Xi Xiaye. To Qi Lei, Dongfang Liuyun felt more the kind of leader who kept to herself. Her quiet eyes seemed to have gone through a lot, thus lending her an air of calmness now to be able to control her emotions as she wished.
Qi Lei watched as her little, cold figure vanish at the corner of the staircase. He brushed his own nose, then followed after her.
