Qi Lei stared at her for a long time before taking it slowly. He flipped through it silently while Dongfang Liuyun moved the cup of water in front of him.
“Is this the Mr. Ge you were talking about?”
Qi Lei closed the document in his hand and asked calmly.
Dongfang Liuyun nodded, “Yes, it’s him. I told you about him before. Things aren’t going well right now, there’s nothing Lan Xiu can do about it. I’m the one in charge of this matter. In theory, I should be responsible to the end. I can’t let their hard work go to waste like this.”
At this point, Dongfang Liuyun suddenly tightened her grip on the corner of his shirt and looked at him silently. “So, no matter what, you have to help me solve this matter.”
“If it’s solved, how are you going to thank me?”
Qi Lei narrowed his eyes meaningfully and asked in a deep voice.
“How do you want me to thank you then?”
Dongfang Liuyun asked back?
“Mrs. Qi will be cooking tonight, and she will also be doing the dishes. How about it?”
Qi Lei raised his handsome eyebrows and smiled.
“Are you secretly protesting that you’ve been cooking too much recently, and that you don’t want to wash the dishes?”
How smart was Dongfang Liuyun? She immediately guessed the hidden meaning behind Qi Lei’s words.
Qi Lei coughed lightly and put down the documents in his hand. He pulled Dongfang Liuyun up, and Dongfang Liuyun naturally got up with tacit understanding. Qi Lei sat down on the chair, and she sat down on his lap as well. She wrapped her arms around his shoulders, she looked at him silently.
Qi Lei naturally could not bear to look at her with such clear and clear eyes. He said, “Why would I do that? Well then, satisfy me tonight. Anything goes after that.”
“That’s all you think about in this head of yours.”
Dongfang Liuyun said helplessly.
“Because I feel that other than this reward, there’s nothing else I want.”
Qi Lei gave her a meaningful glance, and the corners of his lips curled up.
Dongfang Liuyun also turned her head away. She pursed her lips into a smile and stood up unhurriedly. “Alright, we’ll talk about it when the time comes. It’s getting late, so I’ll get off work early today, okay?”
“Okay.”
Qi Lei responded and also simply packed the documents on his desk. Not long after, the couple also left the office.
However, the couple did not go straight home. Instead, they went to the hospital to see Qi Qiming. The doctor told them that Qi Qiming was recovering very well. The signs of his recovery were becoming more and more obvious, and his heartbeat had returned to normal.
After returning from the hospital, the couple went straight home. Qi Lei cooked dinner. It was a very simple home-cooked meal. The couple had some hot porridge with some dishes.
However, the work of washing the dishes was done by the couple together.
“You should visit the hospital more often. From what the doctor said just now, I think he might really wake up. When I stood beside him and spoke to him tonight, I seemed to feel his hand moving, but it wasn’t a huge movement. I don’t know if I was too sensitive.”
In the kitchen, Dongfang Liuyun, who was cleaning the dishes, suddenly stopped what she was doing. She turned to look at Qi Lei and said in a low voice, “Qi Lei, are you alright?”.
Hearing this, Qi Lei was stunned. He stopped what he was doing and turned to look at her. Seeing the concern in her eyes, his heart softened. After a moment of silence, he replied, “I know. Let me worry about these things. I know what I should do.”
“I’m worried about you. If you can’t get over the pain in your heart, even if he wakes up, you won’t be able to let go either. Some things are indeed man-made. Many things are just that we can’t let go of, that’s why we’re having such a hard time. Take me for example. You’re also clear about my family’s situation. But, at least, I think I’m considered Llucky.”
Dongfang Liuyun sighed softly, “What I can’t let go of is Lan Qi’s matter. Even though I’ve been trying my best to convince myself and even want to live a brand new life. You may not know this, but in the past, whenever I brought up Lan Qi, I’d be resistant. But now, I can at least face this.”
“I know that you really want to know about the matter between me, Fujiwara, and Lan Qi. I’ve also told you briefly before. Don’t worry, it’s not that I don’t want to tell you. It’s just that right now, I don’t know how to talk about it. Today, Lan Xiu also brought it up. This matter is a heavy burden in everyone’s hearts. It’s also the reason why I broke up with Fujiwara.”
“Then I’ll wait until you want to tell me.”
Qi Lei replied indifferently. He washed the dishes and put them away.
“As long as you’re Missus Qi now, everything will be fine.”
“My request is that simple. As long as you’re by my side, I’ll feel satisfied. I’ve been used to living alone all these years. It wasn’t easy for me to break this peace. Naturally, I don’t want to go back. Liuyun, I really hope that one day, you’ll have a trace of affection for me. I don’t expect it to be as rich as wine, but…”
After Qi Lei said this, Dongfang Liuyun stopped what she was doing. She looked up and turned to look at him
“You’re not expecting too much. I know that you’re very good to me, and I’ve been working hard. I naturally hope that our long marriage is also about love. You don’t seem to have that much confidence in me.”
As Dongfang Liuyun spoke, the corner of her mouth was filled with warmth. She looked at Qi Lei with a gentle gaze.
As Qi Lei listened, the bitterness in his heart that he had suppressed for a long time suddenly showed signs of recovering. After thinking for a long time, he slowly spoke in a low voice—
“What do you mean by confidence?”
“You obviously don’t have confidence in me now.”
Dongfang Liuyun rolled her eyes at him.
“You don’t have to doubt my past. I’m not a person who will turn back. Besides, you’re very important to me now. Other than my parents, it’s you. Don’t always underestimate your own worth.”
Dongfang Liuyun had always understood that Qi Lei was very careful with his feelings. She did not want to read too much into it. She thought so too. It was good that he treated her sincerely. At least, she was satisfied with what she had now, was she not?
She could feel some warmth as she got closer.
The two of them warmed each other, and some things happened silently.
“What do I mean to you then?”
Qi Lei asked as his gaze stopped on Dongfang Liuyun’s face. “We’ve been married for so long, but I don’t think I’ve told you that I care about you. In fact, I…”
“In fact, what?”
Seeing that Qi Lei did not continue, Dongfang Liuyun asked.
“In fact, what…”
As Qi Lei muttered, he only smiled faintly at the end…
