Chapter 1421 Joy and Sorrow 1

Yang Sheng murmured as his eyes glistened faintly.

They had been at a disadvantage, but lately, they seemed to be slowly picking up and getting better. Recently, everyone had worked extremely hard, and they seemed to have caught a glimpse of the glorious future of their new journey.

After such a long period of working together, everyone gradually realized that Qi Lei was not at all as unruly as people said. On the contrary, he was a very wise and intelligent man. When his unruly façade many knew him for was stripped away, he was actually a very profound person, so profound that even Yang Sheng, who had been working with him for a long time, could not read his emotions. He could never tell Qi Lei’s true feelings and thoughts.

He felt as if Master Qi was Master Qi, but at the same time, he was not exactly himself.

“Mu Yuchen is very clever and cunning. If Qi Feng weren’t cruel enough, he wouldn’t be his opponent at all. However, Mu Yuchen actually has flaws. He cares too much about the people he wants to protect. Since this incident, Gu Qiwu has fallen silent. Based on my understanding of Qi Feng, he’s not going to give up willingly. Buried grievances can’t be erased that easily, so I’m still Qi Feng’s target, and Mu Yuchen probably can’t be excluded from the matter as well. Our people should watch Qi Feng because I’d rather he direct all the hatred towards me than me owing Mu Yuchen even more than I already do.”

When Qi Lei said this, his gaze was still fixed on the street outside the car window.

At this time, City Z was already close to dusk, and the soft yellow sunset enveloped the entire city, but Qi Lei felt slightly uneasy in his heart.

“Mu Yuchen has spent way too much money this time, but fortunately, Gu Qiwu shared some of it. So, we must do our best to prevent Qi Feng from taking over the Qi Kai Group at the shareholders’ meeting this time,” Qi Lei added after pondering for a while.

Yang Sheng nodded when he heard that. “Yes, Master Qi. I know. We will try our best.”

“Some time ago, Father casually mentioned that the shareholders’ meeting late this year may not be held as scheduled. I think he’s trying to test the waters, so we should not act rashly, Instead, we should just sit back and watch. We won’t give in. Qi Feng has always been tolerant, but this time, we’ll see if he can really hold back,” Qi Lei said indifferently, but his dark eyes seemed to say otherwise as he appeared to be conflicted.

He could not determine Qi Qiming’s intention clearly. Perhaps, he never could even thought they were father and son because how many fathers and sons were like them?

“It won’t be as scheduled?”

Yang Sheng immediately raised his eyebrows and his face beamed as he said, “If that’s the case, then it will be great for us. It would be best if the Qi Kai Group can hold back and give us their acquiescence. This will reduce our pressure tremendously. Recently, there have been rumors saying that you and Master Qi aren’t on good terms because you plan to stand on your own and cut all ties with him. These rumors will negatively impact the development of our new company.”

“Take one step at a time and see how it goes. It would be great to avoid these rumors, but if people believe them, then so be it. Tai Yu Corporation mustn’t hide under Qi Kai’s shadow.”

The new company Qi Lei registered was named Tai Yu Corporation. The company could not be registered as a listed company at such an early stage, but it was not formed on a small scale at all.

Yang Sheng obviously understood what Qi Lei meant. Qi Lei wanted to break free from Qi Qiming’s control.

It made sense because Qi Lei had probably given up on Qi Qiming. After the incident with President Wang, the relationship between the father and son was probably beyond repair no matter how much effort they put.

In the back of the car, it was suddenly quiet again, and the car was still moving forward steadily.

Qi Lei had been looking out of the car window, and when the car was driving through the vicinity of De Feng Avenue, he was reminded about some familiar streets. He suddenly thought of something and said, “Stop the car.”

Yang Sheng was surprised by the sudden voice and it took quite a while to react. He then asked dazedly, “Master Qi?”

“Pull over next to the street light in front. You guys can go back to the office,” Qi Lei ordered.

The driver at the front could see Qi Lei’s serious expression through the rearview mirror, so he did not dare to say anything. He hurriedly turned the steering wheel, drove to the side, and parked the car.

As soon as the car came to a stop, Qi Lei got out of the car. Yang Sheng did not have time to ask anything. When he turned to look, he could already see him walking towards the sidewalk. His figure somehow looked a little empty and lonely...

As he walked through several streets, remembering the route from memory, Qi Lei quickly found the quiet street where De Bao House was.

Under the hazy soft light, the quiet street seemed to be like another world. The bare branches of the withered weeping willow beside the artificial lake swayed in the evening breeze, and right opposite him was Dongfang Liuyun’s De Bao House...

As he approached the building, he realized that De Bao House was still the same. The door was still shut securely. It seemed that it had been closed for a long time as there was dust collecting on the large lock on the front door.

Qi Lei stood on the stairs in front of the door and looked at the closed door before him disappointedly. He took a deep breath before turning around slowly and gazed at the warm sun shining from the sky. Sitting down on the stairs while basking in the sunset leisurely, he reached into his pocket, and just when he was about to grab his cigarette box and light a cigarette...

He could vaguely hear the sound of a car driving into the street, so he raised his head and tried to find out where the sound was coming from.

On the street, a black Jeep draped in soft golden sunlight was slowly driving towards him, and in the driver’s seat was...

Qi Lei immediately stood up in front of the stairs as he quietly watched the approaching car.

The car quickly came to a stop at an open space next to the willow tree. The door was opened and a small figure came out of the car gracefully.

She wore a tight black dress layered with a black hooded coat with gloves only on her left hand. Donning a pair of field boots that seemed to be a little dusty and time-worn, her long hair was a little messy. Her delicate face was calm, and she looked like she just had a long day.

Who else could it be if not Dongfang Liuyun?

It felt like Dongfang Liuyun could sense someone staring at her. After shutting the car door, she suddenly looked up, and there she saw the man standing at the top of the stairs...
