“Okay, now don’t think too much. Even if something were to happen, I’ll still be here sharing the burden.” Dongfang Gan raised his arm and patted Dongfang Liuyun’s shoulder while offering his weighty but earnest advice, “However, you’re way past the optimal age for marriage. You should start to take things more seriously, but you should search slowly. There’s no need to rush. You’ll definitely end up with your Mr. Right.”
“You’re my only daughter. I worry that no one will be there to take care of you when your mother and I grow old. So, before both of us reach that point, I certainly hope that you can find a man who suits you and to whom I can safely entrust my daughter’s happiness. A huge family like ours is nowhere near better than others. The circle is just too complicated. You have to keep your eyes wide open. As for those incidents in the past, let’s just not think about it, okay?”
Dongfang Gan’s deep tone was full of concern. He was very sentimental, and it somehow made Dongfang Liuyun feel a little embittered deep down, but she just took a breath as she suppressed the sour discomfort in her throat and nodded.
“I have news for you. Fujiwara will arrive in Z City next Saturday. You should know that the Fujiwara family owns quite a few branches over here, so if he’s here to deal with their company’s agenda, I’m afraid that he might be staying here for quite a long time. I think you should understand what this is about.”
Having said that, Dongfang Gan took a good look at Dongfang Liuyun. Seeing that there was still no response on her beautiful face, he finally sighed. “Your mother has always liked Fujiwara, but it’s up to you. Still, be careful. He’s not a man to be trifled with. How long has it been since he started to have a thing for you? Ten years?”
“I can’t remember, but no matter how long has it been, it’s already reached the end.” Dongfang Liuyun retracted her gaze and turned around. “I’ll go back tomorrow. I’m going out for some air.”
Such a conversation made her feel suffocated because she knew her situation too well. Her options were always pathetically limited.
“Liuyun…” Dongfang Gan wanted to stop her, but her silhouette had disappeared at the stairwell.
…
It hurt!
Dongfang Liuyun had just exited the door and was about to walk to her car when excruciating pain from her stomach made her frown. Her face turned pale instantly while her forehead started perspiring a little. At that moment, she held onto the car door with one hand and pressed against her stomach with the other.
Given the level of pain, even a mere breath would lead to oppressive suffocation.
“Miss Dongfang, are you okay?” A familiar voice rang out, and before she could react, a pair of strong arms had already held on to her and supported her.
She took in a deep, cold breath as she turned her head around to look, only to realize that it was Yang Sheng.
“I’m fine. Help me grab my medicine. It’s in the car. Thank you,” Dongfang Liuyun moved her body slightly and said weakly.
“Alright, okay, just a second. I’ll grab them for you right away.” Yang Sheng opened the car door to go through all the contents of the car. He found the medicine and gave it to Dongfang Liuyun. She then took a pill and felt better after a while.
“Thank you.” Dongfang Liuyun thanked him again. Yang Sheng was about to say something, but the phone in her pocket vibrated suddenly. She took it out and saw that it was Lan Xiu calling. She thought about it for a while and then answered.
“Liuyun? How was it? Did they embarrass you?” Lan Xiu’s deep and hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone call and a hint of concern could be sensed between his words.
As Dongfang Liuyun paused for a split second, her eyes lit up and flickered. She then said, “Can you meet me? Let’s meet at the New Era Plaza, right next to the musical fountain. I’ll wait for you there.” She hung up immediately after conveying the message, enduring the faint pain coming from her stomach while she got into the car directly.
“Miss Dongfang, you’re not feeling well. You shouldn’t be driving, Miss Dongfang!” Yang Sheng wanted to catch up to her, but she had already started the car.
He could not help but feel anxious. Looking at the pallid face of Dongfang Liuyun’s just now, it was a no-brainer to him that it must be…
After giving it a thought, he could only take out the cell phone from his pocket and dial a number swiftly.
Of course, the call went directly to Qi Lei, who was still busy in the office.
…
Half an hour later, at the New Era Plaza.
The sky had gone dark and silent. The streetlights around the plaza were lit up, and there were not many people in the center of the square. Maybe it was just time for dinner.
Dongfang Liuyun endured the faint pain and pulled the car aside. Soon, she saw a black luxury sedan parked in front of hers. The license plate number was naturally familiar since it was Lan Xiu’s car.
“I’m here,” Lan Xiu’s voice came from the front when she just got out of the car.
Dongfang Liuyun looked up and saw him standing beside the car in front of her.
In light-colored casual wear and a pair of sneakers, he looked like he was at a racetrack or a golf course. After all, these two sports were Lan Xiu’s favorite. Besides, Dongfang Liuyun had always been aware of Lan Xiu’s habits, he would spend some time exercising during the weekends, especially at this time.
“Did I disturb you?” Dongfang Liuyun closed the car door and walked towards the bench beside her while Lan Xiu followed suit and sat down next to her.
“It’s okay, but you did call me out in a hurry. What’s the matter? Did Dongfang Ren do something to you again?” Lan Xiu asked out of concern.
“They won’t be able to plot against me that easily, but I just learned from my dad that Fujiwara is coming over next weekend.” Her faint voice pierced through the still air, and her eyebrows frowned slightly while her back was already drenched with cold sweat.
Lan Xiu listened and nodded. “Yeah, I just got the news. At first, I wanted to tell you tomorrow, but it seems that Uncle Dongfang’s eyes and ears are very efficient too.”
“Dongfang Rouer and Jin Sheng will get engaged on the eighth of next month.” His eyes froze for a while when the news hit him. He then sucked a breath in. “If that’s so, you…”
“My grandma is someone who always focuses on the big picture. She had the courage to marry my grandpa, and later on, take over the whole Dongfang Group from him. You can see her means from all that. Back then, while my father married my mother, both families were never considered equal in both their financial and social status, and because of that, my mother has been trying her best to prove herself. Therefore, the relationship between grandma and my father has been rather rigid. I really don’t want to relive such tragedy.” Having said this, Dongfang Liuyun suddenly turned her head and looked at Lan Xiu quietly.
A gloomy light flashed across Lan Xiu’s eyes. His body stiffened a little, and he stared fixedly at Dongfang Liuyun. However, when he saw the determination and despair in her eyes, his heart sank once again.
“Liuyun, do you like me, or do you love me?” While he threw the question, his palms, which were placed on his knees, were silently clenched.
