When they arrived at the seaside resort, it was almost noon. The couple found a restaurant nearby and had a simple lunch before going to the seaside cottage.
The wind at the seaside was not very strong. The weather, which had been cloudy for many days, had cleared up in the past two days. The winter sun was very warm.
The heater was turned on in the cottage. It was not cold either. The sunlight was shining on the French windows at the side.
“You should rest first. I’ll help you finish this chart.”
Qi Lei took the laptop from her hand and opened it. He handed her a clean blanket. “It’s a little cold. Be careful not to catch a cold.”
Dongfang Liuyun took it and spread the blanket over her shoulders, “Your physique is much worse than mine, and you’ve just recovered from your cold. You should put it on yourself. There’s still some in the bedroom. I’ll sleep on the sofa to accompany you, wake me up at three.”
Without waiting for Qi Lei’s reply, she went to the bedroom and brought a blanket over. She fell asleep on the sofa behind him. Seeing that he was busy and focused, she thought for a moment before moving over and resting her head on his thigh.
“What’s wrong?”
Qi Lei lowered his head and glanced at her. His gaze quickly returned to the laptop screen in front of him.
“Thank you for being so attentive to my matters,” Dongfang Liuyun said softly.
“Of course. Who told you to be my Mrs. Qi?”
Qi Lei responded as well. His fingers that were tapping on the keyboard did not slow down at all.
“Are you only attentive because I’m your wife?”
“Of course. Otherwise, who else would have the privilege, especially with someone as lazy as me?”
“I think you have the potential to be a good husband.”
“Thank you Missus Qi for thinking so highly of me.”
…
“Miss, Master Fujiwara has been staying in the company for the past few days to deal with official business. He hasn’t seen Dongfang Liuyun or any other women. Instead, he occasionally goes to Lan Xiu’s place for a short visit.”
In the backyard of cloud residence.
Yoshimoto reported Fujiwara’s recent whereabouts to Riko Inoue.
“By the way, Miss, I noticed that Dongfang Rou’er seems to have tried to look for Master Fujiwara several times. However, Master Fujiwara didn’t meet her. I wonder if it’s because of business matters.”
Yoshimoto was puzzled for a moment before he directly brought it up.
“Dongfang Rou’er?”
Riko Inoue furrowed her brows and thought for a long time. She did not seem to recall the background of this person, so he looked at Yoshimoto in puzzlement.
“Dongfang Rou’er is the Fifth Miss of the Dongfang family. After Dongfang Liuyun, she has always been at odds with Dongfang Liuyun. It won’t be a matter of a day or two before she wants to replace Dongfang Liuyun. The two of them are also fighting openly and secretly. I think that if we want to suppress Dongfang Liuyun, we might need to meet this Dongfang Rou’er personally,” Yoshimoto lowered his voice and said.
When she heard this, Riko Inoue’s expression changed for a while. “Suppress Dongfang Liuyun?”
“Why should I suppress her? She’s very well-behaved now. If I make such a fuss, it wouldn’t be worth it. As for this Dongfang Rou’er, find out what her motive is. I remember that when Dongfang Liuyun and Fujiwara-kun got into an accident, she was also involved in this matter. Who knows if she might have wanted to use someone else’s hand to eradicate Dongfang Liuyun. Dongfang Ren’s daughter isn’t that simple.”
Riko Inoue also analyzed the pros and cons of this matter very incisively.
“Even though I, Riko Inoue, am not a good person, I can’t just rashly disturb the peace of others. I think the relationship between Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun is fine now. Moreover, the Qi family has quite an influence in the underworld. Although they have declined over the years, it’s always right to be cautious.”
“Miss, you’re right. It was Yoshimoto who was thoughtless.”
Yoshimoto wiped off his sweat and felt a little ashamed.
Riko Inoue raised her hand slightly to stop him, “I came here mainly because of Fujiwara-kun. Father is very satisfied with him being our Inoue family’s son-in-law. Moreover, he is much better than those people in person. If I can’t take him down, won’t I become a joke? Therefore, anything that threatens the relationship between us needs to be carefully considered.”
Riko Inoue had no lack of suitors by her side all these years. Since she was young, she could be considered to have seen all kinds of things in this circle. She also had her own thought and opinions regarding feelings.
“I understand, Miss…”
Yoshimoto had also taken Riko Inoue’s considerations into account during this period of time.
“Miss… Why don’t we return to Japan first? Master Fujiwara seems to be…” Yoshimoto said with some hesitation.
“Seems to be what?”
Riko Inoue lowered her head and sipped her tea as she asked.
“I’m sorry, Miss! Forgive me for being blunt, but Master Fujiwara doesn’t seem to care about you at all. These days, he hasn’t really cared about you. He’s just providing us with a place to stay. We can’t always be passive like this.”
Yoshimoto said with some concern, “Moreover, I’m worried about Miss’ situation. If Master Fujiwara continues to be like this, I’m afraid that the old master won’t be able to explain himself. We don’t have to blame the Fujiwara family. Miss, I don’t think that we should lower our status by ourselves.”
Yoshimoto had also endured for a very long time. He said these words in one breath and looked at Riko Inoue with some apprehension in his heart.
Hearing this, Riko Inoue was stunned for a moment. After thinking for a moment, she could not help but sigh, “It’s not like I haven’t thought about all of this. No matter what, father will never give up on the idea of using my marriage to support the family. Rather than being pushed around like this, it’s better to pick someone that I like. Although Fujiwara-kun resists me, he’s very outstanding. He’s enough to make people look up to him and respect him. If this marriage can be fulfilled, it’ll be very good for everyone.”
“But Miss, this subordinate cannot bear to see you suffer like this. If Master knew, he would most likely not agree.”
Yoshimoto’s tone was filled with worry.
Riko Inoue drank the tea in her cup in one gulp. Her frown eased for a long time before he finally spoke, “You can’t just shrink back from a difficult problem. You have to think of a way to solve it. If Dongfang Liuyun still has designs on Fujiwara-kun, it might be a little more difficult for me to intervene. But now, things aren’t that bad.”
Riko Inoue was still full of confidence in her charm and ability.
“Instead I’m increasingly sure that Fujiwara-kun and I are the same type of people.”
When Riko Inoue said this, she smiled mysteriously, “Don’t tell Father about these things. I can handle it. It’s the same with Uncle Fujiwara. They don’t need to know about these things. I don’t want the stalemate between me and Fujiwara-kun to become even more rigid because of this.”
“Yes, Miss, I understand!”
Yoshimoto was silent for a moment when he heard Riko Inoue’s reply.
