Chapter 1167: Doubt and Suspicion (1)

White chrysanthemums...

Those flowers were meant for dead people!

The atmosphere in the office became heavy. Even Morrison could sense an overwhelming pressure.

However, it only lasted for a moment. Qi Feng soon put on a sweet smile, the same one that made Gu Lingsha fell for him. He even forgot how unhappy he had been just a while ago.

Qi Feng slowly took the flowers and signed his name.

"Please thank CEO Xi for me." His smile was warm and gentle.

Morrison was confused about the chill that just ran down his spine.

"CEO Xi also wishes you a speedy recovery. Goodbye!" The young man then left.

Giving him these flowers and wishing him a speedy recovery? Did she really think he did not know what the flower language was?

Qi Feng looked at the white chrysanthemums and smiled.

Xi Xiaye?

Interesting...

Gu Lingsha observed Qi Feng's reaction. Naturally, she had no idea what Qi Feng was thinking about as she did not know what happened between them before. From her perspective, the chrysanthemum represented encouragement, and Qi Feng seemed to be pretty fond of chrysanthemums.

It was a sign of friendliness!

Who else could Fuhua's CEO Xi be aside from Xi Xiaye?

Xi Xiaye!

Gu Lingsha was instantly in a bad mood when she thought about her. Her expression turned cold as she took a deep breath and stared right at Qi Feng.

"Ah Feng, what is this? CEO Xi? Is this from that witch Xi Xiaye? Why did she give you flowers? Why? Since when were you on such friendly terms with her?" Her cold tone was filled with jealousy!

Qi Feng frowned as he looked over at her. His eyes darkened when he saw the cold expression on her face, and he handed the flowers to Morrison. "Put these inside a vase."

"No, you don't! Throw them away right now. Do you hear me?!" Gu Lingsha grabbed the flowers before Morrison could take it. She then slammed them hard onto the floor! The bouquet was smashed and petals scattered everywhere.

Qi Feng's expression darkened as he stared at her for a moment. He then turned towards Morrison to command, "Clean this up."

"You owe me an explanation for this, Qi Feng. Since when are you on friendly terms with Xi Xiaye? First, there was Weiwei, and now you too! Don't think that I don't know that the umbrella Weiwei has been hogging around all day belongs to Xi Xiaye! I've been waiting for an explanation for that. Can you say something?"

Gu Lingsha took a deep breath before lashing out in anger. She shot Qi Feng an angry glare.

Qi Weier's condition was getting worse. She hugged the big, black umbrella all day, yet she was afraid of her own mother getting close to her. She suppressed her anger and tried to get closer, but she was deemed less important than Xi Xiaye whom she had just met several times!

Gu Lingsha did not know about it at first. She only started trying to find out when she noticed that Qi Weier was obsessed over the umbrella. Then, she found out it was from Xi Xiaye! Assuming that it was just a trivial matter, she did not think that Xi Xiaye would influence her long-time relationship with Qi Feng.

However, after she heard those words from Doris lately...

Gu Lingsha could not bear children anymore, and with Qi Weier's current condition, would the Qi family really accept them?

She did use marriage to bind Qi Feng down now, but was it strong enough to hold him forever?

After all, her parents, who had been in love for so many years, were now on the verge of a divorce.

Did true love really exist?

Did forever really exist?

Would Qi Feng love her forever?

She might still have an answer if she had asked herself these questions before, but what about now?

Could she still answer them earnestly?

She was afraid...

She was getting sensitive. How was she going to bear all of these?

"Manager Gu..."Morrison called out to her quietly.

"Get out!" Gu Lingsha stared right at Qi Feng's face.

"Nonsense."

Qi Feng grabbed a pen and signed the document he flipped open just now. He then handed it to Gu Lingsha. "She sent me a flower congratulating my return to Qi Kai. It's just business. Is there a problem?"

"Business? Do you think I'm a fool? Why didn't she give me any flowers when I came here to work? Just what's going on between Weiwei and her? Have you ever given me an explanation? What's your relationship with her? Judging by our conflict with Mu Yuchen, why would she lend you her umbrella?" Gu Lingsha questioned him endlessly.

"I've told you that we're not related. Believe it or not, it just happened. I've signed the document, so take it away. Do not speak about private matters in the office ever again."

Qi Feng glanced at her irritatedly and his tone sounded cold too.

"Private matters? So you know that's a private matter too? Didn't you just say it's just business for her to send you flowers? It's a work matter, isn't it? How is that a private matter? Don't tell me you're becoming like Qi Lei!" Gu Lingshi could feel anger filling up her whole body.

"You're not in your right mind now. Go calm down. You've been becoming more and more unreasonable lately!" Qi Feng sounded annoyed. He took a deep breath and eased his tone to say, "Rest if you're emotionally overloaded. I know you've been under a lot of stress lately."
