Chapter 1619: Can Only Be A Regret (3)

When he said this, Dongfang Liuyun’s indifferent face froze for a moment. After thinking for a moment, she replied—

“What’s done is done. She can’t do anything about it.”

“Yes, but I do have a bit of faith in Qi Lei. Relatively speaking, he can do as he pleases. There aren’t too many restrictions holding him back, as for Lan Xiu...” Dongfang Gan said.

Dongfang Liuyun did not answer. In fact, the reason why she agreed to Qi Lei back then was largely because she used him as a shield. Therefore, she knew deep down that she was very unfair to him, and she could not really feel at ease.

“Father, don’t Bother Lan Xiu about the Dongfang family’s matters.”

“Lan Xiu doesn’t know about you and Qi Lei, right?”

Dongfang Gan naturally understood the meaning behind Dongfang Liuyun’s words.

Dongfang Liuyun lowered his eyes and said helplessly, “I haven’t had the chance to tell him. He’s been busy these few days.”

“What a pity. Such a good young man. It’s not a matter of one or two days that I’ve been looking forward to him becoming my son-in-law. It’s really not easy to find someone who treats you well. When I think about it, I can only feel regret. A very, very great regret. I’ve always thought of him as my son-in-law.”

“You can make him your godson. I’ve always been a friend to him. Don’t worry, I’ll explain it to him clearly.”

“Tell him that I’ve always thought of him as my child. When he has time, it’ll be good for him to come over and sit with me, play basketball, and chat with me.”

“Okay.”

Then...

It was still dark in the evening, but it was not raining. The ground was already dry.

When Qi Lei drove to Maple Residence, Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye had just gotten home from work.

Sis Wang was preparing dinner while Xi Xiaye was busy in the kitchen. The children were playing on the lawn in the front yard.

On the rooftop on the second floor, Mu Yuchen and Qi Lei stood side by side against the railing as they watched the three children play.

“Wei’er seems to be much more cheerful. I remember that she didn’t dare to play much before.”

Qi Lei had brought Qi Wei’er for a physical checkup not long ago. He knew that her body was much better than before. Now, when he saw Qi Wei’er playing happily below, he was relieved.

“She’s just a little closed off. As long as we have the patience to enlighten her, she’ll slowly return to normal. She’s been doing pretty well recently. I heard from Xiaye that she could even play a few moves of chess yesterday. It’s summer vacation, I don’t plan to let them have any classes anymore. Let them play to their heart’s content.”

Mu Yuchen held the railing in front of him with both hands as he looked down at the children below. His eyes were filled with a fatherly gentleness.

Qi Lei also looked down

Mu Xiaocheng was hugging a big ball and playing with little apple. Qi Wei’er was very interested in the butterflies in the flowers while Mu Zirui was playing with the puzzle.

“Wei’er is doing well here. You Don’t have to think about bringing her back. Just let her grow up here. This is actually Lingshi’s responsibility. In terms of responsibility, you’re at the bottom. Besides, Xiaye has always wanted a daughter,” said Mu Yuchen.

“You can have another one with Xiaye. She’s still young anyway.”

Qi Lei said as he looked at these cute children. For some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of envy.

Mu Yuchen was undoubtedly happy and had everything, but could Qi Lei also have such luck?

Mu Yuchen did not answer. He just quietly lowered his eyes.

“What happened to Zimo that day?”

When he averted his gaze, Mu Yuchen had already turned around and sat down on the rattan chair.

“Didn’t he tell you?”

Qi Lei raised his handsome brows.

“What did he say?”

Mu Yuchen glanced at him.

When he heard this, Qi Lei instantly smiled and shrugged. He sat over as well and said with a smile, “Then, there’s nothing much. It’s just a little accident. I know that his family is very tight-lipped, so I kind of sympathize with him.”

“They’ve always been tight-lipped, but he’s just like that. Su Chen and I can’t do anything about him either.”

Mu Yuchen took the tea Qi Lei handed over and took a sip.

“Are you going over tomorrow?” Qi Lei asked

“Mmm, the flight is tomorrow afternoon. I was in a hurry the last time, so I didn’t get to visit Lingshi and Ah Mo properly. I want to stay a few more days this time,” Mu Yuchen replied as he glanced at him.

Very quickly, he caught the wedding ring on Qi Lei’s ring finger. Surprise flashed across his eyes as he stared at him and asked, “What’s up with your hand?”

Qi Lei did not deliberately hide it, so he did not care about the thing on his hand that announced his married status.

Qi Lei followed his gaze and glanced at his ring finger too. He paused for a moment before saying in a deep voice, “Exactly what you think is up, I’m a married man.”

“Who is she?”

Mu Yuchen was a little surprised. He knew Qi Lei’s background pretty well. He had never heard of him having a very close relationship with any woman, but he had been through it before, so he was not too shocked.

“Dongfang Liuyun. You should know her,” replied Qi Lei.

“Her? Dongfang Gan’s Daughter?”

This time, the surprise in Mu Yuchen’s eyes deepened as he looked at Qi Lei.

Qi Lei nodded silently, “It’s her.”

When Mu Yuchen heard this, he calmed down a little. Then, he quickly returned to normal, “It’s beyond my expectations.”

“I can tell.”

Qi Lei took a sip of tea and smiled, “Even I’m a little surprised.”

“The Dongfang family’s situation is very complicated. I don’t think you’re in love with her. Why her?”

After some thought, Mu Yuchen stared at Qi Lei and asked.

Qi Lei stopped what he was doing and thought about it for a moment before replying, “Actually, I don’t know why. After so many years, I’ve only thought of the word ‘marriage’ when I see her. Maybe I thought that marrying her would allow me to accept it calmly.”

“I remember that you were still thinking about my wife before this.”

Mu Yuchen squinted at him.

When he heard this, Qi Lei raised the corners of his mouth in disapproval, “Do you think I’m the kind of person who can’t let go? You and Xi Xiaye are in love. I’m not a fool. I’ve worked my way up. I admit that I did like Xiaye back then, but it’s not that I have to have her. Besides, my current Mrs. Qi is both talented and beautiful. I can win a round too.”

“How dare you!”

Mu Yuchen glanced at him disdainfully. “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Otherwise, it’s worthless. But you have a good eye.”

“Really? You think she’s not bad too? She’s very pretty and has a lot of charisma, right?”

When Mu Yuchen said this, Qi Lei finally asked proudly.
