Chapter 1883: Warming Up (5)  

Lan Xiu was not surprised to be interrupted by Dongfang Liuyun. He understood that Dongfang Liuyun had never liked to hear explanations in this regard. Perhaps it was as she had said, it had already happened and turned out like this, the process or the reason was not that important, especially now that it was so difficult to change such a situation.

After thinking for a while, Lan Xiu looked at Dongfang liuyun and said, “I know that you don’t want to know about these things and don’t want to talk about them, but I think that perhaps after you know the truth of everything and the reason for what happened, you can make a more accurate judgment. The person I knew would always get ahold of the overall situation and understand the whole story before you made your judgment.”

Lan Xiu actually did not want to say these, but looking at the ongoing stalemate, he naturally did not want it to be like this. He thought that even if Fujiwara and Dongfang Liuyun could not be together, at least they could return to how they were before and still be friends.

Fujiwara was actually the same as him, a very lonely person. Every time he was with him, he could really relate with him.

“And then? So what if I made another judgment? You know very well what kind of situation I’m in right now. I definitely can’t put aside my current peaceful life and accept the impact of the waves.”

Dongfang Liuyun asked.

“Liuyun…”

Lan Xiu muttered in a low voice.

“You know my situation very well. You don’t have to persuade me. I know what I’m doing and have my own plans. I’ll think of a way to solve this matter. I won’t let everyone’s efforts go to waste.”

Dongfang Liuyun put the document in his briefcase and took a sip of tea.

“I’ll think of a way to find Mr. Ge.” Lan Xiu said.

“No need. I think someone will be able to find him faster. This matter has been quite difficult for you. It’s also my fault for not handling the matter satisfactorily. Don’t worry, I’ll solve it.”

Dongfang Liuyun stood up and said.

Lan Xiu’s deep eyes fell silent for a moment, as if he could also catch something from her words. Suddenly, he asked, “Are you going to look for Ah Ye?”

“Since this matter has got to do with him, I’ll have to look for him. Didn’t you say that we needed to meet too?”

As Dongfang Liuyun’s indifferent voice fell, before Lan Xiu could react, his slender body went over—

“I’m going back. Let’s contact each other if there’s anything else. I know you want to be his lobbyist, but Lan Xiu, remember our previous agreement. I hope you can remain silent. This will be good for the three of us.”

Hearing this, Lan Xiu’s eyes suddenly darkened. His lips moved, wanting to say something. However, Dongfang Liuyun’s figure had already disappeared outside the door!

“Liuyun…”

Lan Xiu could not help but call out to Dongfang Liuyun. However, Dongfang Liuyun did not seem to hear him and left.

…

“President Lan…”

Seeing Dongfang Liuyun’s figure leave, Ah Li, who had just returned, frowned. He walked in and saw Lan Xiu sitting quietly on the sofa. He could not help but call out to him.

Hearing Ah Li’s voice, Lan Xiu, who had his eyes lowered, slowly raised his gaze and looked at Ah Li.

“Miss Dongfang, she… President Lan, she…”

Ah Li said in a daze. Looking at Lan Xiu’s somewhat disappointed expression, he did not continue his sentence.

“She left.” Lan Xiu said faintly.

“President Lan, actually, if you ask for this project, Miss Dongfang will definitely go and look for Master Fujiwara. As long as Master Fujiwara asks, this project shouldn’t have any problems. I think this is also the reason why Master Fujiwara rejected Mr. Ge previously. Although I don’t know the whole story, I believe that Master Fujiwara will definitely have a way to make Mr. Ge relent.” Ah Li analyzed.

As he listened, Lan Xiu only smiled indifferently. His smile clearly contained a hint of self-mockery—

“Even if I didn’t speak to her, she would still go over, I know her. In fact, when I looked for her, she should have known about it. It’s just that she didn’t expose me.”

After saying this, Lan Xiu smiled bitterly helplessly, “Ah Li, with some things between us, no matter how hard I try, I’m afraid that I won’t be able to hold on to them. Even if I become more careful and cautious, in the end, it can’t be compared to the passing of time. I once thought that the few of us should be best friends forever. Between me and her, we are also the kind of friends who can confide in each other and talk about everything.”

“President Lan…”

Ah Li looked at Lan Xiu and felt a wave of discomfort in his heart. He thought for a moment and said, “Miss Dongfang still cares about you very much. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have rushed over at the appointed time the moment she received your call. She is very concerned about your matters. This project is also of great importance, so she…”

“You don’t understand Liuyun. Concern is another thing, but we’ll never be able to feel that sincere and pure feeling between us again.”

Lan Xiu was actually a person who loved humbly and timidly. On one hand, he longed for the so-called love between him and Dongfang Liuyun. However, he was also afraid in his heart. If he were to pierce through this layer of paper, between them, they would feel uncomfortable even just being friends.

In fact, what Lan Xiu was facing now was the situation that followed.

Dongfang Liuyun was the same as before. It was just that Dongfang Liuyun’s enthusiasm now had a hint of estrangement. Perhaps Dongfang Liuyun herself did not notice it, but Lan Xiu could feel it very clearly.

“President Lan, Miss Dongfang may not have meant anything. It’s just that you’ve been under too much pressure recently, so…”

“I’m afraid even you won’t believe this reason. Do you think I’ll convince myself like this?”

Lan Xiu lowered his head and took a sip of tea. Then, he put down the teacup and walked toward the office desk gloomily. “Still haven’t found any traces of Mr. Ge?”

Hearing this, Ah Li’s face changed. He quickly lowered his head and said, “Sorry, President Lan! Our people still haven’t found Mr. Ge’s whereabouts. We only heard that he appeared in the underground casino. When we went to investigate, we couldn’t find him. I think this may be related to the casino. Maybe they are in cahoots. Mr. Ge escaped through the casino. Or the casino people might have caught him and wanted to know something from him.”
