As soon as Dongfang Gan finished speaking, Dongfang Liuyun tidied up her messy hair. She turned and met his gaze—

“Since we’re already here, come in and have a seat. Qi Lei should be back by now.”

“Next time, I’ll come with your mother, I’m not prepared today and it’s already so late, so I don’t want to disturb your peace. Did you listen to what I said to you?” Dongfang Gan looked at her with a frown.

Dongfang Liuyun nodded. “Don’t worry, I remember. I have my own plans. I know what to do. Father, go back and talk to mother. I really want to live a peaceful life. Qi Lei, he’s very good to me.”

Dongfang Gan listened and could not help but pat Dongfang Liuyun on the head, “Alright, you’ve just married him and already know how to defend him. I’ve never seen you treat anyone this special. You seem to care about him.”

“He’s now my real husband, your son-in-law. How can I not care for him?”

Dongfang Liuyun shrugged and opened the car door as she spoke. She quickly closed the door and walked to the backseat to get her things. Then, she walked over and continued, “Alright, you can go back now. Drive carefully on the road.”

“You can go in first. Father will look after you.”

Dongfang Gan said this and silently looked at Dongfang Liuyun.

Dongfang Liuyun was stunned for a moment. Then, she smiled and did not say anything else. She suddenly turned around and walked into the villa area. Her slender figure disappeared into the night in front of her. At this moment, Dongfang Gan slowly started the car, and left...

There was still a short distance between the entrance of Grand Lake Villa area and Qi Lei’s villa. The street lights on both sides of the clean cement road were naturally very bright. When she looked up, she could see a few moths flying around.

She walked along the road under her feet and soon arrived at the door of the house. To her surprise, she realized that the lights in the courtyard were very bright. It seemed like they were left on purpose. Usually, only the street lights in the front yard were turned on, but now, even the lights in front of the door were on.

Dongfang Liuyun’s footsteps paused for a moment, but she quickly reacted. She continued walking forward, swiped her card, and entered through the door.

At this moment, in the brightly lit living room, Qi Lei was sitting on the sofa. The television in front of him was turned on. He was holding a big bowl in his hand and eating with chopsticks in one hand.

Dongfang Liuyun had just walked through the door when she noticed his figure. The sound from the television was quite loud, and he did not even notice that Dongfang Liuyun had put down her things.

Dongfang Liuyun looked at him for a while before she relaxed her steps and walked over.

“What are you watching? Why are you so engrossed in it? What are these? A bunch of them. For me?”

Soon, she saw that the sofa beside him was filled with shopping bags.

The sudden sound startled Qi Lei. He swallowed the food in his mouth and turned to look at her. He had no idea when she stood behind him, “Why are you so late? You didn’t pick up your phone.”

“When you called me, I was almost home. Egg fried rice? You seem to really enjoy it.”

She raised her eyebrows and reached out her hand at him.

Qi Lei paused and handed over his chopsticks. Without hesitation, she picked up the tempting fried egg and put it to her mouth. She ate it slowly and narrowed her eyes at him, “It’s a little salty.”

Then, she returned the chopsticks.

Qi Lei looked back at her. “The eggs are salty and delicious. Who sent you back? Did you take a taxi? Did father really send you back? Why didn’t you let him come over?”

As he spoke, he poured her a glass of water and moved it over.

Dongfang Liuyun took it naturally. After drinking two mouthfuls, she replied, “Mmm, it was too late. Besides, wouldn’t you be nervous if he comes over?”

“My father-in-law, which means I’m practically half his son. Why would I be nervous? Besides, the circumstance is settled. It’s useless for them to object!” Qi Lei spoke with conviction.

“I really don’t know where your sense of superiority comes from?” She shook her head and smiled.

“Superiority comes from self-confidence. Self-confidence comes from Qi Lei himself. You won’t be able to defeat me. I know where my charm lies.”

He looked at her proudly, a wicked smile on his lips.

“Did you receive the flowers I sent you?”

He suddenly thought of this.

Dongfang Liuyun nodded. “Only a person like you would give such a tacky flower. However, I won’t accept your apology for what happened this morning.”

“Why won’t you accept it? I just think that red roses are too tacky and rustic, so I chose white roses. They look nicer, but you actually think I have no taste?”

Qi Lei frowned and looked at her with some dissatisfaction.

“Your taste is indeed quite low.”

“You’re such an unromantic woman. I don’t give flowers to women easily. The bags next to them are the dresses I bought along the way. Try them on.”

Dresses?

Dongfang Liuyun subconsciously turned her head to look at the bags on the chair beside her...

Just now, when she was shopping with Dongfang Gan, her attentive father had also bought her a few bags. Was it the shopping festival today?

“Why do you have time to go shopping?”

Dongfang Liuyun asked him in surprise as she reached out to take the few paper bags. She opened and looked at them. They were all new dresses with good designs. Needless to say, the quality was not bad. This guy still pursued the brand and quality, the clothes in the closet were all high-end goods, be it his or hers.

“Weiwei might be going to City B in two days. She’s the only child Qi Feng and Lingsha left behind. In theory, I should be taking care of her as her uncle. If it wasn’t for the fact that she’s happy with Mu Yuchen and Xiaye and it’s good for her, I’d like to bring her back too. You...”

Qi Lei looked at her hesitantly.

Dongfang Liuyun lowered her eyes and put the clothes away, “I don’t have any objections. This is indeed your responsibility. Do as you see fit.”

“It’s not that I’m bringing her back. She’s doing quite well over there. I don’t really mind.”

“If you feel that you’re treating her unfairly, then you should show her more concern on a daily basis. Of course, this concern isn’t just about material things. I think you know what to do. ”

“I know. When we’re stable, you should meet her. My instincts tell me that she’ll like you very much,” Qi Lei said this before continuing to eat his meal.

“Alright, make the arrangements. I’ve told father about your suggestion, and he didn’t object to it. However, I’ve thought about it. Let’s have him and Ms. Song come over for dinner next Saturday night. Do you have any objections?”
