As the cool breeze swept through the bamboo forest in the afternoon, the sound of the bamboo rustling echoed through the air, and the clicking of the bead curtain swaying could be heard.

In a secluded room, Qi Lei sat down and ordered a pot of tea.

When Mu Yuchen arrived, Qi Lei had already flipped through several magazines and drank a few cups of tea.

“Have you waited for long?” Mu Yuchen sat opposite Qi Lei and handed him a folder. “The documents are ready and you can go through them. Liu Lingyu has been busy lately. The preliminary work is almost done so you can go there and have a look.”

Qi Lei quickly took the folder but did not open it immediately. “I trust you.”

He raised his hand to pour Mu Yuchen some tea and said, “Doris’s funeral was very simple. It wasn’t crowded and no one from England visited. This incident was definitely a big blow to Gu Lingsha and Qi Feng, so they probably won ‘t have the mood to plot anything for a while. It’s almost the end of the year, and everyone is going to be busy. Qi Kai Group’s general shareholders’ meeting will be held right after the New Year.”

Mu Yuchen picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said lightly, “I also want to have a peaceful year. There’s something about Qi Kai that you should be warier about. It’s about what I told you regarding Xi Xinyi before.”

Qi Lei raised his eyebrows and hesitated upon hearing that. “Xi Xinyi? Is she getting transferred to where Han Yifeng is?”

“The conditions I gave her before could be a good thing given the circumstances and uncertainty right now.”

Mu Yuchen’s voice was calm but Qi Lei could not help but smile. “You really are a competent brother-in-law, constantly worried about everything. You’d probably feel less exhausted if you had less conscience. Just the affairs about Mu Zixi alone are enough to drag you down. Sometimes, I really admire your courage.”

“Life must go on even when you’re exhausted. Comfort is for the dead. A comfortable life isn’t handed on a platter to you. You have to always fight for it. If you have any thoughts, you need to take action . Otherwise, you’ll be very passive in the future. People like us can’t just compromise on everything.”

At this point, Qi Lei could not help sighing faintly. He finished his cup of tea and said, “You’re right. We can’t just compromise.”

“As long as you get the idea. You should know what to do and I won’t interfere,” Mu Yuchen lowered his eyes and said calmly.

Qi Lei nodded. “Never mind. These are family matters anyway, so let me handle them myself. I know what to do.”

He did not want to let Mu Yuchen interfere either. The problems between Qi Feng and him could only be solved personally so as not to involve the innocent. After all, a depressed person like Qi Feng might end up like Doris if he had nowhere else to go.

Qi Lei had nothing to worry about since he had nothing to lose, but Mu Yuchen was different. He still had to think about Xi Xiaye and the Mu family.

He had to admit that he held some respect and admiration towards Xi Xiaye in his heart. Although it was nothing more than that, he could not bear to let her go through any trouble. The reason he met Mu Yuchen today was to clarify those things .

After pouring a cup of tea, Qi Lei looked down at the fragrant tea in front of him in silence and continued, “I’ve always been a person who doesn’t simply accept help from others, but, Chen, I really appreciate you and Xiaye. You’re intelligent, and if I were in your position, I’d probably do everything I can to my opponent considering the relationship with Xiaye. Instead…you have the generosity that I don’t, and I admire you for that.”

Mu Yuchen smiled after hearing his words and he shook his head disapprovingly. “No, I might not be as accepting as you are. At least, in Qi Feng’s case, I probably wouldn’t stay silent if I were you. You can say that I’m more realistic as I only keep people who are worth something by my side and be genuine with them just like you. The biggest difference between you and Qi Feng is that you are pure, righteous, and peaceful by nature, and I think we can be friends.”

Qi Lei also smiled and sipped his tea, then he said, “Your guess is indeed accurate. I am honored.”

“We are just pursuing a win-win situation. I’m a businessman myself, and I’ve always sought after benefits. I haven’t suffered any losses when working with you, so you don’t have to thank me. You always put in a lot of thought and effort when it comes to things like these, far more than I do. Really, I should say thank you just based on the fact alone. However, I hope that we’ll never need to mention this between us,” Mu Yuchen said sincerely, moving Qi Lei’s heart.

“Such humility coming from you is rather uncommon, Mu Yuchen. Xi Xiaye made the right decision to choose you. Fine, I won’t be a stranger and make polite conversation next time. After getting these documents today, you don’t have to worry about me anymore. I can handle them. The Hui Gu Corporation is now in Mu Lingshi’s hands, so Qi Kai, Qi Feng, and the others are probably brazen in their assurance. I’m afraid it’s a little difficult for me to come forward now, but I’ll try my best to arrange your request.

“Also, in the coming future, we should meet less and you should have less contact with Qi Kai and his people so as not to aggravate Qi Feng. If he could do this to me, he can definitely do the same to you. It’s better for you to just stay put and keep quiet,” Qi Lei reminded him in a heavy tone.

Mu Yuchen raised his gaze at Qi Lei who had a serious look on his face. “Can you handle it?”

“I can handle it. Don’t worry. The worst that can happen is losing. I’m not afraid as I have nothing to lose. What else can I lose?” Qi Lei said sarcastically, “I sold some of the shares from some foreign companies that I joined, and my mother also left me a lot of money over the years. It won’t be hard to financially support the new company.”

“But you still need to watch Qi Feng’s actions. Also, I heard that someone from the Wang family contacted you.” Mu Yuchen glanced at him.

Qi Lei’s eyes darkened and he lowered his head to drink his tea. “I have nothing to do with them anymore.”

When Mu Yuchen could hear the bitterness in his tone, he stayed silent for a while. He did not question him any further and both of them continued drinking their tea in silence.
