1248 Wine Tastes Better With A Friend 3

Qi Lei paused as he listened to Dongfang Liuyun’s words. He understood what she meant after moments of pondering.

“However, not everything can just be let go easily. It’s not as simple as just saying ‘I’ll forget about it’.”

He was reminded of the scene when he had left his home just now. As he thought about what Qi Qiming told him, he felt really bitter. He grabbed the glass and emptied it instantly.

“You can’t let go because you can’t find a reason to do so yet,” Dongfang Liuyun said after a while as she refilled Qi Lei’s glass again, “Let’s stop talking about such heavy topics. Since we bumped into each other tonight, we should enjoy ourselves.”

Qi Lei chuckled and nodded, “Wine sure tastes better with a friend. Thank you, Liuyun. I feel relaxed every time I talk to you, so here’s to you.”

Dongfang Liuyun clinked glasses with him and emptied the glass.

They took their time to enjoy their meal. It was nearly 7 p.m. when Dongfong Liuyun realized it was about time for her class, so she got up and was ready to leave.

However, the rain was still pouring heavily and it was cold outside as well.

“Time to go. Goodbye!” She thought that it might be too late to wait for the rain to stop, so she was about to run under the rain.

“Didn’t you drive?” Qi Lei looked at her and noticed a frown on her face.

“It was peak traffic when I came out, so I took the subway,” Dongfang Liuyun replied.

He acted quickly and covered her with his coat. “Let’s go. I’ll send you there. My car is just right over there.” He dragged her along without waiting for her response.

Dongfang Liuyun was slightly shocked, but she did not decline his help. Naturally, she would accept help now that someone had offered it, so she followed him to his car.

Thud!

The two of them quickly got into the car.

“Want to listen to music? Pick one yourself,” Qi Lei handed her some tissue as he asked.

She thanked him and wiped the water off her face. Then, she looked around and put a CD into the music player. Qi Lei was surprised when he heard the sound of instrumental melody. It was one of his favorites.

“‘A Faraway Journey’?” Dongfang Liuyun quietly read. Her eyes turned quiet as she was reminded of something, but she grinned as she looked out of the window.

Qi Lei thought she was about to say something, but she just remained silent thereafter. He took a glance at her and just saw her side profile.

“This song tells us about the origin of Japanese, many stories were incorporated into this song, just like ‘The Palace’s Memory’, and ‘Conquering Heaven’.”

“Do you like music with a majestic vibe?” Qi Lei caught something in her words as he asked.

Dongfang Liuyun gave it some thought before replying, “I like songs that are full of historical value, but of course, the genre is important too. Music like this can be mind-opening.”

“It sounds like you’re really obsessed with history and archeology.”

“Everything passed down from the ancient era was a huge treasure to us, so it’s meaningful for me to investigate these things. However, the essence of these things isn’t appreciated by people of the modern era. What were the four greatest ancient inventions? What were the names of each era in ancient China? I doubt many people can answer that.”

“You sound like a teacher right there. You sure are a nationalist.” Qi Lei laughed as his curiosity towards Dongfang Liuyun increased.

What a mysterious woman!

While she was that same high-level player she met in the game, with her little speech now, it was obvious to see that she was extremely knowledgeable and hard to fathom.

Dongfang Liuyun did not deny his words as she just smiled.

…

Unlike the heavy rain over City Z, it was all sunny on Xi Xiaye’s end.

Xi Xiaye woke up as she heard the birds chirping. Her man was nowhere to be seen, but she could still sense his warmth beside her and his scent was still lingering in the air too.

She blinked and sat up on the bed as she looked outside the window. The golden sunshine graced upon her. She looked aside and noticed that her outfit had been prepared for her.

Xi Xiaye scratched her head a little and went to get ready. It was a simple equestrian outfit and a cap.

Were they going to ride some horses today?

Surprised, she suddenly heard some laughter in the next moment. That should be Su Nan’s voice.

Xi Xiaye smiled and went outside to the balcony.

As expected, she saw Su Nan playing tennis with one of the bodyguards while Ruan Heng was resting under an umbrella. The scene looked so beautiful and tranquil, especially Su Nan’s laughter. It had been forever since she looked this happy.

However, Xi Xiaye could not find her man anywhere.

Where did he go?

She frowned and started to walk down the stairs.
