Chapter 1700: Festival (3)

After that…

After that, he never saw her again!

Now…

After being in a daze for a long time, Zhou Zimo finally returned to the car.

“Go straight back to the villa.”

After getting into the car, Zhou Zimo thought for a moment before saying this.

“Master, but the Elder Master asked you to…”

Lian Ziyao tried to persuade him.

Zhou Zimo did not answer. He only looked at the champagne rose in his hand as if he was deep in thought. He was a little absent-minded…

Lian Ziyao dared not say anything more. He gave the driver a look and the driver nodded, increasing the speed of the car.

Meanwhile, in the Grand Lake Villa area, when the couple got up, it was already close to noon and Mama Wang had prepared lunch. The two of them had a simple meal and drank two cups of tea before the butler and Mama Wang brought the gifts to the car.

It was still raining heavily outside.

“It’s a little cold outside. Go and change your clothes.”

Qi Lei changed into a neat dark-colored suit and walked down the stairs. When he saw Dongfang Liuyun still sitting on the sofa leisurely eating fruit and drinking tea, he said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Dongfang Liuyun raised her gaze and looked over. As expected, she saw Qi Lei standing on the stairs leisurely fixing his cufflinks while looking at her.

Dongfang Liuyun was not in a hurry. She leaned lazily against the back of the chair behind her. Her clear eyes did not hide the fact that she was sizing Qi Lei up and down a few times. There was also a hint of admiration in her eyes that could not be hidden—

If this fellow were to really dress up, he would be quite attractive. At least, she found him very pleasing to the eye right now, so she did not hold back, “Hey, to be honest, you’re really quite handsome. You must have been a campus hot stuff when you were in school, right?”

Hearing her say that, Qi Lei’s face froze for a moment. Then, he smiled. “I don’t rely on my looks to get what I want.”

“Then you really don’t know how to use resources rationally. You’re a person who can use your looks to get what you want.”

Dongfang Liuyun smiled happily.

Qi Lei gave her a sidelong glance before walking down the stairs.

Only then did Dongfang Liuyun get up and slowly went upstairs to change her clothes.

About 10 minutes later, she changed into an ibis white casual dress and came down. It matched Qi Lei’s dark suit quite well.

“Let’s go.”

She took the car keys on the coffee table and glanced at Qi Lei, who was fiddling with the flower pot by the bookshelf across from her.

Qi Lei quickly stopped what he was doing. He wiped his hands and followed her out.

Grand Lake Villa district was still quite a distance away from Tanshan Villa district, needless to say, they got caught in a traffic jam.

At this moment, in Tanshan Villa district.

Dongfang Gan had already received many Mid-autumn Festival greetings. Since last night, his phone had not stopped ringing. The only thing he could do was switch off his phone.

“Where’s Madam?”

At this moment, Dongfang Gan had just walked out of the study. He looked around, but Song Siting was nowhere to be seen, so he asked the servant.

“Madam went out to buy groceries, President Gan!”

“Isn’t everything ready? Why is she buying groceries?” Dongfang Gan asked in surprise.

“Madam said that she hasn’t cooked for a long time, so she wants to make a few of your favourite dishes, President Gan.”

“I like what Miss likes to eat. Isn’t it all prepared in the kitchen already?”

Dongfang Gan frowned, “How long has she been gone?”

“She should be back soon. It’s been almost an hour. Madam usually buys groceries from the nearby supermarket,” replied the servant replied.

However, before she could finish her sentence, the sound of a car driving in could be heard from outside. Dongfang Gan then walked downstairs.

As expected, not long after, he saw Song Siting walk in with sonorous footsteps. The servant behind her was still carrying some groceries.

“Take the groceries back to the kitchen first. Take care of what needs to be handled. It will be faster to put them into the pot later.”

Song Siting instructed the servant.

“Yes, Madam!”

“There are so many ingredients prepared in the kitchen, why did you go out to prepare them personally?”

Seeing that she was sweating slightly at the forehead, Dongfang Gan poured her a glass of water considerately.

Song Siting wiped her sweat and took it. She drank it in a few gulps and sat down on the sofa. “She hasn’t been back for so long. I know she doesn’t want to see me. You father and daughter are close, but it doesn’t mean she’s close to me, her biological mother.”

There was a hint of helplessness in Song Siting’s tone, but her eyes were sharp and bright, “I really don’t wish for her to be too much like you. The Dongfang family is too deep in the waters. I can’t imagine if she really sits in your position one day, if she’ll be tortured by those people? Dongfang Gan, don’t forget, back then…”

“Enough, enough. I understand all your considerations. All that just to say that you lack confidence in our daughter. You didn’t even get to know her, how would you know her potential? If you ask me, her current depth isn’t inferior to you! Siting, the child has already grown up, the more you want to hold on to her, the more she wants to break free.”

“She’s my only daughter! How can I not be worried?”

When Song Siting said this, her tone became much more irritable, “All these years, I’ve been holding it in for so long that I’m going crazy! Dongfang Gan, if you’re a man, you have to protect your daughter at all costs. Hurry up and get rid of those people! How could you promise Liuyun to transfer her to the Marketing Department. Don’t you know that Lin Yuanyuan and the others are her immediate superiors? What nonsense!”

“Our daughter is like you, she means what she says, what do you think I can do about it?”

“I’m really going crazy. If it weren’t for you not supporting me, Liuyun and Fujiwara would have become a couple a long time ago. Fujiwara has strong feelings for Liuyun, they have always loved each other deeply, he would do anything for our daughter. Plus, with the powerful Fujiwara family backing him up, Liuyun wouldn’t have to work so hard, especially with their relationship in Myanmar. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be so miserable right now!”

Song Siting could not help but feel a headache when she brought this up.

“Qi Lei, I admit that he’s very good. His conditions aren’t necessarily worse than Fujiwara’s, but you have to understand that the Qi family and the Dongfang family haven’t really interacted. If something really happened, would he be able to support Liuyun? Besides, you know how Liuyun is like. Do you really believe that she could forget Fujiwara and fall in love Qi Lei? If she really could, she wouldn’t have kept quiet about Fujiwara!”

“I’ve been thinking a lot lately. I close my eyes every day and think about this. Sometimes I feel like you shouldn’t have taken on this responsibility from the start.”

Song Siting’s tone was a little weak. She rubbed the space between her eyebrows and said, “Even I’m tensed, living such an anxious life every day.”
