When Dongfang Liuyun found out about the Lin Corporation’s incident, it had already been a few days since the news had spread. When she saw the newspaper report that the Lin Corporation was on the verge of bankruptcy, Dongfang Liuyun was also a little surprised.

No wonder Lin Yuanyuan and Dongfang Rou’er did not come to find trouble with her these few days.

It just so happened that the preparatory work for the South River project was almost done.

“Manager Yun, it seems that someone has already bought most of the shares of the Lin Corporation. It might not be long before the ownership of the Lin Corporation changes.”

Seeing Dongfang Liuyun frown as she read the newspaper in her hand, Secretary Ding smiled and said.

“How did the Lin Corporation come to this point? Although I know that the Lin Corporation’s business had been declining in the past few years, with Lin Yuanyuan keeping an eye on it, it might not come to this point. Moreover, with such a huge incident, why did Dongfang Xin and the others not do anything and just let the Lin Corporation decline like this?”

Of course, Dongfang Liuyun did not know that all of this was Qi Lei’s doing. Furthermore, it was all for her.

“If it was just a simple operation, it wouldn’t be like this. It’s because of that useless son of the Lin Corporation, Lin Yonghua! Lin Yonghua owed more than 300 million in gambling debts in the underground casino. It was impossible for the Lin family to take out this sum of money all at once. The Lin Corporation already has a serious deficit. Now that there’s such an astronomical figure, they naturally can’t handle it.”

“Moreover, on Manager Lin’s side, even if they want to help, they can’t do anything. Old President Shu is here right now. It’s not like they haven’t considered making a move for a large amount of gambling debts. If it causes a shortage of funds, it wouldn’t be good if they had something against them. Oh right, Manager Yun, I heard that Dongfang Yu encouraged Lin Yonghua to place such a big bet. I don’t know how Manager Lin wants to settle the score with him!”

Secretary Ding subconsciously lowered her voice when she said the last part.

“Dongfang Yu?”

Dongfang Liuyun was shocked and said with some doubt, “How is that possible? Isn’t Dongfang Yu rarely involved in these things? That hypocrite is just like Second Uncle.”

“I’m not sure about the details, but I’ve asked someone to investigate. That night, Dongfang Yu was indeed with Lin Yonghua, and he seemed to be Lin Yonghua’s strategist. Oh, right, Lin Yonghua seems to have been quite close to Dongfang Yu in the past year. I don’t know if there’s anything fishy going on.”

Hearing this, Dongfang Liuyun’s lips curled into a knowing smile, “It’s just a cat-and-mouse game. It’s just that Lin Yuanyuan seems to have overestimated their own strength. Now, the roles are reversed. Since things have come to this, let’s just sit and wait for it to develop.”

“Yes, Manager Yun!”

“Go and make some arrangements. There’s a message from Tai Yu Corporation. At 9:30 tomorrow morning, they’ll hold their first business negotiation on the South River Project. Let’s see how Vice President Zhang will arrange it.”

Dongfang Liuyun recalled what Qi Lei had reminded her of this morning.

“Tomorrow morning at 9:30 am?”

“Yes, go to vice-president Zhang’s place personally. See what he has to say and how he’ll arrange it.” Dongfang Liuyun said.

Secretary Ding nodded. “Okay, manager Yun.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she left. Dongfang Liuyun put away the newspaper in her hands and continued with her work.

However, she had just read two documents when there was a knock on the door.

‘Dong dong—”

“Come in!” Dongfang Liuyun answered simply.

“Manager Yun, President Lan Is Here!”

The door was opened and someone came to report.

Lan Xiu?

Dongfang Liuyun was a little surprised and quickly looked up. When she saw Lan Xiu standing behind the secretary, her expression could not help but become a little complicated. However, her reaction was very quick. She put down the documents in her hands and suddenly stood up—

“Come in, you can go out first.”

“Yes, Manager Yun!”

The secretary replied and then left, closing the door behind her.

“So free to come over today?”

Dongfang Liuyun went over the table and sat down on the sofa at the side. She boiled water—

“Tea or coffee?”

“Tea.”

Lan Xiu glanced at the flower tea in her hand and replied as well. Then, he sat opposite her in silence.

“Have you been very busy recently?”

Lan Xiu lowered his head to see that she was busy as he asked faintly.

“I’m fine. There are a lot of things to do at the company. How about you?”

Dongfang Liuyun also answered very naturally. However, she felt that there was something more between them compared to before. In the past, they would not be so polite, but...

“I’m fine too. I went to see Auntie Song this morning. Her recovery is quite good. The doctor said that she will be under observation for another two days. If there’s nothing else, she’ll be discharged soon. When will Uncle Dongfang be back?”

Lan Xiu reached out to get her a tissue and stared at her with his deep eyes.

“There’s no news yet. The matter over there won’t be resolved anytime soon. Qi Lei just went over this morning too and the doctor said that she’ll be discharged next week. Has Mr. Ge not agreed to the project yet?”

Dongfang Liuyun asked as she poured him a cup of flower tea.

“This matter has been temporarily put on hold.”

Lan Xiu was not very concerned about this, but was worried...

“Did Fujiwara not agree to it?”

Dongfang Liuyun narrowed her eyes at him indifferently, her tone firm. As she spoke, she picked up the cup of tea and took a sip indifferently—

“I know that Fujiwara has arrived in City Z, but I won’t go looking for him.”

Dongfang Liuyun directly stated her position.

“I know. He still lives in Cloud Residence. You know, that’s the gift he always wanted to leave you. It’s just... forget it, let’s not talk about him.”

Lan Xiu could also sense Dongfang Liuyun’s silent expression, so he did not continue.

“Regarding the project, I’ll think of a way myself. You don’t have to feel pressured. I also don’t want him to use this matter to suppress you. You should be free.”

“Lan Xiu, I know you’re worried about me. Don’t worry, I’m fine. At least, I’m satisfied with my life right now. We’re used to confining ourselves. It’s also time for us to find a new life. You can’t go on like this forever.”

Dongfang Liuyun was quiet. She lowered her eyes and was silent for a while before saying, “I’m worried about you too. I’ve always treated you like my big brother. You have to live up to yourself, Lan Xiu.”

“Why do you sound more and more like Uncle Dongfang? Sometimes, I can see older brother’s shadow in you too.”

Lan Xiu sighed and silently lowered his head to take a sip of tea. “It’s just that he’s gone now.”

“Lan Qi’s misfortune... the responsibility is mine. I’m sorry. I didn’t take good care of him. I owe him too much, and I owe you too much...” Dongfang Liuyun said softly.
