The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu’s Pampered Wife Chapter 1451 - Opening Ceremony 6

Chapter 1451 Opening Ceremony 6Yang Sheng quickly took the file and looked through it before nodding to confirm.“Yes, Master Qi, I’ll send the orders as soon as possible. They’re still working overtime at the company tonight. The opening ceremony will be at noon tomorrow, but there are still many things that aren’t settled yet, so I’ll go take a look later,” Yang Sheng said as he stored the documents in his briefcase.

“I might still need to trouble you to take care of the matters there. After the opening ceremony, I’ll share a portion of the profits with all of you. It’s only two days away. Now that the company is on track and everything’s going smoothly, there’s no need for everyone to be anxious and stressed out. In business, you just have to try your best and leave the rest,” Qi Lei encouraged him after thinking for a while.
Yang Sheng said gratefully, “Yes, thank you on behalf of everyone, Master Qi. Everyone has been very tired these days, especially you. Take some time off tonight and rest early to regain your energy for tomorrow. By the way, Master Mu and President Xi are coming back tonight too, and they’ll attend the opening ceremony of Tai Yu Corporation tomorrow. Master Mu’s assistant, Li Si, personally called and sent us his regards just now.”
“Okay, got it. You should go back first and call me if there’s anything so that everyone can go back and rest as soon as they’re done.”
“Yes, Master Qi!” Yang Sheng replied before turning around and leaving with the briefcase and car key in one hand.
When he saw Qi Qiming, he bowed and left the room.
It was just the father and son left in the living room. Qi Qiming’s assistant, Wang Chun, was waiting in the car outside.
Qi Qiming took a sip of tea and immediately tasted the bitterness in his mouth. He felt helpless but could not seem to find a better solution than this. While he was not satisfied with their way of communicating, it was still nice to be able to see his son.
“Are you planning to never return to the Qi family?” Qi Qiming finally asked after pondering for a long time. Even though he knew the answer would disappoint him, he still could not help but ask it anyway with a glimmer of hope in his heart.
Qi Lei paused when he heard Qi Qiming’s question. He lowered his head and looked at the cup in front of him quietly.
“I believe so.” Qi Lei did not try to conceal his intention in the slightest. As soon as he said this, Qi Qiming was certainly hurt and he could feel a blunt pain he had never felt before.
“Do you hate me?” he asked again while staring at Qi Lei with his deep gaze. “Do you hate me so much that you don’t even bother talking?”
Qi Lei sneered when he heard that and then broke into a smile. “I can’t even hate you. In fact, you don’t have to do this at all. I’ve told you, if you’re trying to gain something for Qi Feng, you can just be straightforward. I want to see for myself what else you guys want to take away from me. What else do I have that draws your interest?”
“Xiao Lei, you don’t have to think like that because I’m not doing this for Ah Feng. I might have been too eager and forceful before about the matter between you and Ah Feng without considering your feelings, but I don’t think any father would want to see his children falling out,” Qi Qiming said in a serious tone.
“Who do you think is the culprit of our falling out? You think that as long as I’m with Qi Feng, then we brothers can be in harmony. Let me ask you. Since we were kids, have I ever tried to fight with him over anything at all? From the very beginning, your choice for the heir of Qi Kai Group has always been him, and the only son you think about is him. Have I ever said anything about it? I’ve tolerated it for years, and I’ve taken so many steps back until there’s nowhere else left to go. Why haven’t you thought about how I feel? What more do you want?”
It had finally got to the point whereby it was too difficult for Qi Lei to conceal the sadness in his heart. “Do you want me to be just like my mother? So that you’ll have one less hurdle when I suddenly disappear one day?”
“Xiao Lei, I’ve never said that it was all your fault. I know Feng’s temper…Over the past few years, I’m afraid it has only gotten worse. All these years, I haven’t treated you well because of your mother. It was also partly because I couldn’t convince myself to do so. After your mother left, I’ve thought about it for a long time, and I do want to make it up to you,” Qi Qiming quickly expressed his intention. He seemed a little uneasy talking about it. “Some things were out of my control. The sudden loss of your mother made me sad too. I was also anxious when you went missing…”
The distantness in Qi Qiming’s voice was gone, and there was a hint of unexplainable melancholy and sadness instead. He did not know when and how these feelings came about!
When he returned home every day, seeing his empty home and walking through the long corridor reminded him that he could no longer see the vases that Wang Qin liked before or even the oil paintings that were hanging on the wall. He could not explain the loneliness and emptiness he felt. It was often those times that made him feel extremely alone.
It was the kind of loneliness and emptiness that could never be filled, and he only seemed to feel better when he visited Qi Lei occasionally or have a meal with him.
He even got tired of the life he had lived before as all his beautiful mistresses lost their appeal in an instant. It made him feel bored, even a little repulsive when he saw them, so he just gave them a sum of money and sent them away. Things seemed to be slightly easier now.
However, he did not know that whatever he said was nothing but a ridiculous joke to Qi Lei.
The damage had been done, and nothing else would make it better.
If he could realize his mistakes earlier, Qi Lei would not have to work so hard, but that was in the past, and it did not matter anymore because Wang Qin could never come back and Qi Lei did not care anymore.
“You don’t have to say anything because it means nothing to me. At least, people still think we’re father and son and that will be our relationship at best, so if you can come tomorrow, then come. If you can’t, I don’t care either,” Qi Lei said as he put his cup down.
“All things will pass, but, Xiao Lei, the Qi Kai Group shareholders’ meeting will be delayed. No matter where you go, you’re still part of Qi Kai, and I hope you will continue to serve as the company’s vice president. If you really want the Qi Kai Group, there’s a possibility that I may not choose Ah Feng as the heir, but the premise is that you must return to Qi Kai and the Qi family!”
