Chapter 1470 Shareholders“ Meeting 2
Miss Weiwei?
When his daughter was brought up, Qi Feng’s dark eyes could not help but glimmer in composure.
Actually, he admitted that he was a very selfish and extreme person, but when it came to his daughter, Weiwei, he genuinely loved her. Perhaps, it was also because he had been by her side watching her grow ever since she was born. Every time he saw her struggle with her illness, he seemed to see shadows of his old self.
The father and son and duo sympathized with one another, so as a father, Qi Feng still loved Qi Weier very much. Because of Qi Weier, he put in a lot of effort. Thankfully, her health had improved a lot since, and she seemed to be doing better in terms of mental health as of late too.
Previously, Gu Lingsha had been depressed because of Doris’s passing. In order to avoid being affected by Gu Lingsha’s emotions, Qi Feng had especially separated the mother and daughter for a period of time. When he heard that Gu Lingsha was doing better, he let them stay together again.
Even though Gu Lingsha was still working at Qi Kai, because of her previous emotional instability, she kept on taking leave although Qi Feng got used to it.
“If you’ve made the arrangements, then go fetch them. It’s been a while since I’ve gone out,” Qi Feng said calmly.
“Alright, First Master, I’ll go right away.”
Then, Morrison let out a sigh of relief before he retreated.
...
The sky gradually darkened, and the warm, gentle sunlight shone on the horizon. Moments after that, the sun set into the horizon, and the vast world appeared dusky.
When Xi Xiaye walked out of the office, the sky had darkened, and it was early evening.
She had just walked down the stairs when the chauffeur and bodyguards drove the car over while the guard by the door respectfully went up to open the car door for her.
She quickly got into the car.
“Go to the hospital in the city center.”
Her man had called her earlier, saying that he would have dinner with Su Chen and the rest that night and would be returning home late. Every time he went out, he would knowingly report his movements to her so that she would not need to worry about not being able to find him.
“Alright, CEO Xi.”
She was worried about things on Qi Lei’s end. Earlier, when she had called him, his phone had been switched off, so she called Yang Sheng and found out that he had been staying at the hospital.
Fuhua Real Estate was not too far from the hospital. It took only an approximately 40-minute drive. When they passed by the bustling city center, Xi Xiaye asked the bodyguard to get dinner for Qi Leei.
The hospital was naturally quite quiet at night. As she walked along the empty corridor and listened to the clear sound of her own footsteps, Xi Xiaye was actually slightly afraid. She had always been quite nervous about the hospital, but thankfully, there were the two bodyguards behind her that Mu Yuchen had arranged for.
Before she reached Qi Qiming’s room, she could see Qi Lei from afar. He was standing at the glass window looking in from outside, and his figure actually looked quite lonely.
She walked lightly, but her rhythmic steps were heard. Qi Lei turned to look in an instant. He followed the sound, and Xi Xiaye’s elegant, slender figure soon greeted his sight. Relief flashed across his face.
“You’re here!”
Xi Xiaye reached his side in a few steps with a nod, and then looked towards the sickbed. Qi Qiming lay still on bed.
“How’s he doing?” she asked with concern as she turned to look at Qi Lei, catching a hint of fatigue in his bloodshot eyes.
Qi Lei breathed in. “He’s alright. He was stable by the afternoon. Earlier, the doctor just came to check, and he said that if he can safely get through tonight, and his condition stabilizes, he’ll be able to get through the critical period for now, but we don’t know when he’ll regain consciousness.”
Then, he turned around and pointed to the chairs behind him. “Let’s sit down and talk.”
Xi Xiaye nodded and sat down too. “You look really tired. You should rest, or you might collapse yourself.”
Qi Lei closed his eyes for a while, then opened it and calmed himself down before saying, “I’m fine. I can handle it still. I was just a little tired a few days ago, but earlier, I had a quick shut-eye in the car on the way here, so I feel much better already.”
“Don’t push yourself too hard. I got you some dinner. Quickly have some,” Xi Xiaye said as she waved to the bodyguard beside her. The bodyguard knowingly brought the lunchbox forward and respectfully handed it to Qi Lei.
Qi Lei massaged the space between his brows. He did not reject the food and put it on the glass table beside him.
“You don’t have to make a trip all the way here. Nothing’s changed.” Qi Lei’s lowered voice sounded raspy.
“I was worried, so I came to look. Even though I don’t want to say too much, I do hope you’re doing better, and that all will be fine and things will look up again.”
When Xi Xiaye turned her head and looked at Qi Lei’s worn out expression, she felt sorry for him. He has had too much too bear, and she really hoped that everything he was going through right now would be rewarded with happiness just like how she had it back then.
“I’m fine. There’s no need to console me, but of course, I’m happy that you care about me. Perhaps this is just my fate: to be a lone wolf,” Qi Lei said in what seemed like a very calm tone.
“When did you believe in fate? We’re all good people and we haven’t done anything terrible, so we shouldn’t be abandoned by fate. Don’t be too pessimistic now. Even I found happiness. You’re better than I am. How could you be left behind?” Xi Xiaye smiled calmly.
“These words sound familiar like someone else asked a similar question before...” Qi Lei laughed softly as his fingers combed through his dark hair while he sighed helplessly. “I’m not such a great person. I’ve lived to be 30 years old and I haven’t done a single good thing. Instead, I’ve caused endless trouble. Sometimes, I really wish I could turn back time. Perhaps I could change many things.
“But there are no what-ifs now. I don’t like what-ifs or similar terms anyway. Sometimes, those terms are just a way of finding excuses for our past mistakes.
“I didn’t see things thoroughly back then and forced myself into dire straits. Xiaye, you’re a good woman, and I’m grateful to have met you. At least, right now, I’ve still got a friend like you visiting me and talking to me.”
Qi Lei sighed, and then his dazed gaze fell onto the sickbed inside...
