The Most Loving Marriage In History: Master Mu's Pampered Wife

Chapter 1392 - Grief and Indignation 1

Chapter 1392 Grief and Indignation 1

Towards the end, Qi Qiming did not even realize when he left. He just knew that by the time he did, he had drunk all the sake and eaten half the dishes on the table...

The sun outside was brighter, and the car slowly left the Grand Lake Villa area.

Along the way, Qi Qiming stayed silent. Thoughts weighed on his mind to the point that even when Assistant Wang called out to him several times from the front, he did not respond.

“CEO Qi?”

Afterward, Assistant Wang raised his voice slightly, and Qi Qiming was stunned. He then gathered his thoughts from his daze.

Qi Qiming’s obscuring gaze flickered, his eyes then returned to calm as he softly asked, “What is it?”

The assistant could hear from Qi Qiming’s tone that he was not very happy, so he then lowered his voice and carefully said, “Should we send someone to oversee Doris’s matter? Miss seems to be landing in City Z this evening, and I wonder how First Master will be arranging for her arrival.”

Doris...

When this name was brought up, Qi Qiming’s gaze darkened. He thought about it for a moment, then took a deep breath before saying in a lowered voice, “Let him handle it himself.”

“Yes, CEO Qi!”

“Also, look into what Qi Feng has been doing recently,” Qi Qiming said exhaustedly. Even if he did not want to, at this point, he could not help but have doubts. He was inclined to believe what Qi Lei had said, especially about the search mission to find Qi Lei. Qi Feng had not performed in a satisfactory way after all.

As a father, he did not wish to see the brothers go against each other, but right now, it seemed like things were not as simple as he thought. What was going on between the brothers was not just disharmony, but...

“CEO Qi...” When the assistant heard Qi Qiming, he began to feel puzzled. He looked hesitantly at Qi Qiming through the rearview mirror and said, “Master Qi, are you saying that you want to investigate First Master?”

“That’s right. Look into what he’s been doing recently, especially his subordinate, Morrison. Examine them thoroughly. I want information on them from the past six months. Also, revoke the information about the proposal with South River Project No. 2 first. I’ll take over it myself.”

“But, CEO Qi, isn’t First Master in charge of this project? If we suddenly revoke the information, I’m afraid it won’t be a good idea. First Master’s most familiar with the project in the whole of Qi Kai. CEO Qi, you’ll have to think this through!” Assistant Wang could not help but remind.

Yes, he was right!

South River Project No. 2 was a project that Qi Qiming had fought for to help Qi Feng rise up. Currently, they were collaborating with Hui Gu. However, now under the current circumstances, given that Gu Qiwu announced with great fanfare that Mu Lingshi was going to be his heir, he could not guarantee the progress of this project.

In truth, Qi Feng had been handling this project well, and he was very happy about it, but right now he suddenly seemed to have additional considerations.

After the New Year, Qi Lei’s new company would be open for business. The fact that he could reach this stage proved that he was quite extraordinarily capable as well, so...

Qi Qiming hesitated before saying, “Send Yue Hai over to supervise it, and let them both work on this project. This project is one of Qi Kai’s most important projects in recent years, so we can’t afford to be negligent. Just let Yue Hai go over to supervise.”

Then, Assistant Wang nodded. “Yes, I got it, CEO Qi!”

...

The warm sun faded away, and in the blink of an eye, it was evening.

After having lunch at the old Mu residence and staying for a while, the husband and wife returned to the Shen residence.

Since Shen Yue retired, he rarely left the house now. It was not too bad when the weather was warmer, but once it got cold, he would curl up at home to read or play chess, and on the weekends he would accompany Mu Zirui to practice writing or do some other things.

The elder’s life was quite a calm one. At least, compared to before, he was much calmer, and he looked more spirited.

When Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye rushed back, Shen Yue was pruning his bonsai in the backyard. Coincidentally, Lan Zilang was there too.

The elder was dressed in a Tang suit [1], and he held a pair of scissors in his hand, and he hummed his favorite ‘Katyusha’ [2]...

“Elder CEO, you look more energetic these days. In fact, you look brighter too. Have you been doing well recently?” Lan Zilang did not notice Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye behind him. He just smiled cheerfully as he watched the joyful Shen Yue.

Upon hearing that, Shen Yue’s aged eyes squinted. He fixed the plum blossom in the pot before him as he said, “I don’t have to worry about anything, so of course, I look spirited. I should have long let go of my burdens. Now, I truly understand the true essence of life. If only Ah Hua was still around! Now, we’ve got grandchildren too, but sadly, she wasn’t that lucky. When we were younger, she suffered so much with me, and by the time we could finally enjoy ourselves, she left us...”

“Elder Madam will feel happy in heaven knowing that you’ve been thinking of her all these years, Elder CEO. Now, it’s good that you can be more at ease. Xiaye’s managing the company very well, so you can rest assured,” Lan Zilang said with a smile.

“I’m not worried about you lot handling the company’s matters. Our Shen family isn’t a famous family, hence we don’t need any heirs to carry forward the family name as long as the children are happy. In the years to come, when you’re dead, none of this will matter. They should fight for the life they want too. Girls may be rich and spoiled but not the boys.”

At this juncture, Shen Yue paused what he was doing but did not look up at him.

When Lan Zilang heard that, he laughed and quickly said, “It’s quite rare to think of things like you do, Elder CEO. I always thought that you cared a lot about finding an appropriate match for a marriage partner like...”

“Like Wenna and Mushan?”

Before Lan Zilang could finish, Shen Yue had already cut him off. His aged eyes narrowed slightly at him.

Lan Zilang paused, then nodded.

When Shen Yue set aside the scissors in his hand, Lan Ziland quickly brought him a cup of hot tea.

Shen Yue took it and slowly took a sip.

“Actually, that wasn’t my intention back then. I did look into the kind of family the Xi family was. If it had been possible, I would still much rather have arranged for Wenna to marry you. Otherwise, Ah Chen’s father, Mu Tangchuan would have been great too. He was better than Xi Mushan either way, but after that, I thought it through. Those external factors aren’t as important as I thought. Didn’t I, Shen Yue, come from the origins of being a farmer? When I was younger, I did all the tiring, dirty work. Ah Hua was an heiress from a good family too, but didn’t she end up marrying a poor soldier like me?”
