Chapter 1166: Gifting Flowers (3)
Inside Qi Feng's office in Qi Kai Corporation, Professor Terl packed up his equipment with a smile and spoke to Qi Feng with his not-so-fluent Mandarin.
"Mr. Qi, according to your condition, if you can even feel a little bit of numbness, that means you have a very high chance of recovery. I've checked and noticed not all the nerves on your legs are dead since you've been doing massages all these years as well, and there are no signs of withering, so I'm confident that you'll recover."
"That's great news, Dr. Terl. If you can heal our Master's legs, we'll reward you handsomely. Please do your best and help him stand again!" Morrison seemed worked up.
Qi Feng smiled as well as he spoke to Professor Terl humbly, "I'm relieved to hear those words from you. Let me know if you need anything from me. I'll do whatever in my power to aid you to heal my legs."
Professor Terl smiled. "I'll do my best. If you cooperate with my therapy, I'm sure your wish will come true soon. Alright, it's time for me to go back now. Just follow my instructions."
Morrison sent him out.
"First Master, I think you'll be able to stand. How exciting!" Morrison was overjoyed after he sent Professor Terl out.
Qi Feng smiled while he lowered his head and looked at his legs with a smile. "After six years, I never thought I'd be hopeful again. God's blessings are with me."
Rat-a-tat!
There was a knock on the door. Gu Lingsha opened the door and came in before he could reply.
"Missus!" Morrison greeted her.
Gu Lingsha smiled and left some documents on Qi Feng's table. "These documents need your perusal. Take a look."
Qi Feng flipped through them as Morrison left the room quietly.
"The progress of South River Project No. 2? Looks like it's going smoothly. Xi Xinyi seems capable. I'm surprised the promotion is doing so well." Qi Feng was generous with his compliments.
"Xi Xinyi is Yue Hai's subordinate. She'll have to be up to standards under his wing. However, I have to say that she is indeed capable. I had a talk with her some time ago, and I definitely sensed hatred towards Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye in her tone. Ah Feng, we're in a passive position right now, and I notice that Uncle Qi has been meeting his private lawyer quite frequently lately. Do you think..."
Gu Lingsha looked at Qi Feng hesitantly.
"He sees Qi Lei differently now. He will definitely reward him one way or another even if I take over Qi Kai.
"But it feels like Lei has been curse. He's taken Mu Yuchen and Xi Xiaye's side. He was actually defending them. Plus, I really have no idea how to deal with my parents' issue now. My mother sent evidence to the court, and I'm sure the court summons will reach my father in the next few days. Don't you have any ideas?" She stopped beside Qi Feng and looked at him with those sorrowful eyes of hers.
"What other methods do you think can solve their problems? You should know your parents better than anyone else."
Qi Feng's eyes darkened when Gu Qiwu and Doris were mentioned and his tone sounded cold as well. "Moreover, it's not like we can get involved in their matter."
"Then, what should I do? Just watch them make this mess and actually get divorced? How many people do you think are watching this? Should I let Mu Yuchen and the others just laugh at us?"
"Alright, Shasha, let me think about it. The issue is to deal with Mother right now. Father won't stop if she doesn't let up. Instead of talking to me, you might as well try to convince your mother."
"Ah Feng, do these matters really tire you out? You've been watching this whole thing like an outsider. There are no benefits to us at all if my parents actually get divorced! If Father officially takes Mu Lingshi back...I know my father too well. He hasn't been really happy with me lately. He actually got his subordinates to do a DNA test between me and him in secret."
Gu Lingsha was worried. She somehow found out about Gu Qiwu's task for Ah Yong.
"Mother's actions are indeed surprising. Fortunately, the information is still suppressed. It's not really a big deal if Father keeps quiet about it. The evidence is long gone now, so I'm sure he won't want to stir it up."
"But Father and Mother are really against each other right now. She's determined to get a divorce, and it seems like she'll be getting a portion of the Hui Gu Corporation shares, but Father doesn't want to give her anything. If things get to a stage whereby it's too late, I really don't know who I should side with. Mother forced herself to be discharged from the hospital this morning, and she warned me to pick a side. Just what does she mean by that?"
"If we're forced to make a choice, we can only stand on your mother's side. I'm sure you know the reason why." Qi Feng's tone was firm.
Gu Lingsha's expression froze for a moment. "Father didn't seem like he was going to take Mu Lingshi in, or else, he wouldn't have waited for so long. I met Father in the hospital earlier today. She is in great conflict with Father. It's not something that can be solved in an instant—"
Rat-a-tat.
A knock interrupted Gu Lingsha.
"Come in," Qi Feng answered.
Morrison came in followed by a young man with a bouquet of white chrysanthemums in his hands.
"First Master, this guy is looking for you!"
"Hi, are you Mr. Qi Feng?" the young man asked with a smile.
Qi Feng raised his eyebrows before nodding. "That's me."
The man smiled. "Greetings Mr. Qi Feng, I'm from Smile Florist. CEO Xi from Fuhua sent you some flowers. Please sign here." He then handed the bouquet to Qi Feng.
CEO Xi of Fuhua? Xi Xiaye?
Her name appeared in Qi Feng's head.
However, his expression darkened instantly when he saw the flowers...
