Chapter 1555: Encounter (4)

They had a simple breakfast, and it was already 7.30 am when they headed out. There was still plenty of time if they took the highway.

Qi Lei was driving while Dongfang Liuyun sat in the passenger seat beside him. She was dressed in black casual clothes with a cap of the same color and a pair of large beige sunglasses. Although she was all covered up, it showed off her beautiful lips on her little face, which looked very distinct with the contrast in colors.

“I have asked Butler Xu to list all the things that you need. Everything will be ready when you get back. Regarding what happened this morning, I understand now, so if I have any good equipment in the future, I’ll keep them for you first before taking the rest.”

Dongfang Liuyun seemed to be surprised by him.

“Just remember what you said. I’m not difficult to get along with. Since we’re both in this together, I won’t abandon you,” Dongfang Liuyun said while looking at him intently. Her eyes were clear and sincere.

Qi Lei nodded without looking at her, but his tone was full of affirmation. “I believe you, but I always feel that those words should come from me. I feel like I don’t have the dominance of a man in front of you , Mrs. Qi.”

He did not even try to hide his thoughts.

Dongfang Liuyun’s face suddenly filled with relief when she heard that, and she silently looked away to look out of the car window. “You have your own strengths too, just like everybody else. I’m not that strong either. For example, I was also very fragile when I was sick. I still cry when I watch sad TV series. I’m also very new to business matters and have never done anything like that, so it will be very difficult for me in the future.”

Qi Lei felt better, but he still looked at her in surprise as he wondered, “Are you the kind of person who cries when you watch dramas? You don’t look like it at all.”

“Not when I watch dramas, but I often do when I watch documentaries. A few years ago, when I made a trip to Africa and saw the tragedy that was happening over there, I—”

“It’s okay. Don’t watch too much of those in the future. Also, just take it slow when it comes to business matters.”

Qi Lei had made his way up all by himself. Now that Tai Yu Corporation was on the right track, and he had the support from the Qi Kai Group, he did not have to go through those useless battles anymore. In fact, he could still manage such a huge company by himself.

“Help me out so that I can feel more at ease.”

“You’re always so straightforward when you speak,” Qi Lei glared at her and smiled wickedly.

“Why can’t I be straightforward? I’m not one who likes beating around the bush. At least, I can save myself from going through detours,” Dongfang Liuyun replied disapprovingly, “You can do the same in the future. Most gentlemen are hypocrites though. I hope you’re not like that.”

“Then, what kind of person do you think I am?” Qi Lei raised his eyebrows and asked.

“A single-celled organism,” she immediately replied.

Qi Lei glanced at her, but there was a rare smile on his face. He stepped on the accelerator and said, “Don’t worry. I’ve completely evolved. Remember to call when you get there. Also, when do you plan to make things official? I feel like I’m not even a secret lover now.”

“The marriage agreement was signed with our names, and that’s self-explanatory. If we were to go back in time and I had to choose again, I think I’ll still say yes without hesitation.”

When Dongfang Liuyun said this, he sighed softly. “We were still good friends, and this sudden change was certainly something new for both of us, but since we’ve already taken this step, we might as well just try.”

“Are you confident about our marriage?” Qi Lei asked in a low voice while his gaze was fixed on her face.

“What do you think?” she asked rhetorically with a warm smile.

“I don’t know,” he replied very sincerely because he really did not know how to manage a marriage, and most of the marriages he saw did not end well, so he…

Dongfang Liuyun did not answer but glanced at him indifferently and turned her head to look out of the car window. The car had slowly driven into the parking space on the side of the road, and Qi Lei stopped the car steadily. After they both got out of the car, he carried her luggage for her before locking the vehicle.

They went straight into the airport through the VIP passageway.

It was almost time when she picked up her ticket, but being the considerate man he was, Qi Lei sent her off at the boarding gate.

“Be careful and remember to call when you get there,” he reminded as he passed her the backpack in his hand. Qi Lei looked at her with depth in his dark eyes, and she could not determine his emotions.

Dongfang Liuyun took her backpack and carried it on one shoulder as she raised her head to look at him.

The height difference between them was actually quite large. Dongfang Liuyun was just 1.61 meters tall. Although she was not that tall, she was lean and slender, which made her look taller than she actually was. However, Qi Lei was almost 1.82 meters tall.

“Okay,” she finally answered after a long time. She lowered her gaze, and when she was just about to turn around, Qi Lei suddenly bent down slightly and stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms. He said emotionally in a deep voice, “I’m worried that this is all just a dream…Dongfang Liuyun, listen to me. You made this choice, so you can’t give up before I let go…I don’t have much left, so you…”

Although he did not continue, she was able to capture the message he wanted to convey through his eyes.

She thought about it and gently wrapped her hands around his waist, and leaned against his chest as she patted his back lightly. She chuckled and said, “I’m just like you, so I’m not any better. I guess we’re now…just seeking warmth from each other, so…”

Warmth from each other?

Qi Lei looked at her and seemed happy to hear what she said.

After thinking about it, he wanted to say something. However, before he could, he suddenly felt himself being pulled down, followed by a faint cold fragrance and softness on his lips that warmed his heart.

Taken aback, he could not even react.

When he finally came back to his senses, the warmth on his lips had already subsided.

“We have just started, and happiness is often in our own hands, Mr. Qi. Goodbye…”
