Chapter 1414 Disappointed 3

After he watched Qi Qiming's car drive further away and finally disappear into the hazy night, Yang Sheng turned around to go back in.

"Master Qi, I feel like CEO Qi's quite different from before. Did he want you to do something for him?" Yang Sheng looked at Qi Lei puzzledly as he asked softly.

Qi Lei did not say anything. He just nonchalantly lowered his head to drink the water in his cup. Moments after that, he said calmly, "He's been acting out of the ordinary recently. I can't quite make out his intentions either, but I think it can't be anything good. You don't have to care about it too much. Just be on alert."

Yang Sheng nodded. "Alright, Master Qi. Right, the documents from the industry and commerce office have arrived. It's going to be the Spring Festival soon, so everyone's quite busy and worn out. In fact, the new company's launching after the New Year, and I'm afraid they'll have to return sooner to work, so..."

"After the weekend, try to get the end-of-year work done next week, and let them go home for the New Year early. You and the other two VPs can organize the work to be done after the New Year. We'll be very busy, so you should have a peaceful rest too."

Qi Lei took a sip of water and leaned back against the sofa, changing into a relaxed position.

"Alright, I'll arrange for that, Master Qi. Also, the company's opening ceremony guest list has been prepared. It's in the folder in the briefcase. Master Qi, please have a look through, and if it's all's good, we can print the invitations."

"Mmm, I'll give it to you on Monday. It's quite late now. Go home." As Qi Lei massaged the space between his worn brows, you could hear a hint of fatigue in his voice.

After many days of being busy, he could gradually feel the exhaustion these past days. It was a good thing that everything seemed to be looking up, so he could catch his breath.

"Alright, Master Qi, you should rest well in the next two days too. You've been overworked recently, and you should be quite tired," Yang Sheng said a few concerned words before he left.

You could hear the sound of the car leaving outside, then the large villa suddenly fell silent. The living room was extremely quiet, so only the rustling sounds of the wind from outside could be heard.

He sat there for quite a while until he finished his cup of water before he slowly walked upstairs.

Dongfang Liuyun had not been online for a long time now that the university break had begun, but she was still quite busy, and they had not bumped into each other for many days, so Qi Lei did not switch his computer on. A while back when he passed by De Bao, the doors seemed to be still closed. He heard that she had gone away again. She was indeed a busy person as well.

Sitting before his desk in the study room, Qi Lei did not switch on his laptop, but he took the thick book from the side and continued to flip through it.

It was Dongfang Liuyun's Bible that she had given him.

When he first started reading it, he did find it a little profound and hard to understand, but his comprehension skills were still pretty good. What the book talked about was what he needed to understand too.

Because of this, he suddenly realized that Dongfang Liuyun's wide knowledge and mysterious demeanor was something that he admired, especially for a woman...She was really great and excellent, yet he thought to himself that it must be quite tiring for her.

...

Inside the luxurious living room of the Qi residence, the butler looked at Qi Feng who was flipping through a magazine on the sofa as he carefully asked for instructions, "Master, the dishes are cold now. Should I heat them up? I think CEO Qi should be home quite soon."

Upon hearing that, Qi Feng paused and looked up at the butler. Then, he glanced at the time on his wrist. The time showed that it was 9 p.m., so he hesitated for a moment before saying in a calm voice, "Alright, please heat up the dishes."

"Alright, First Master! Has CEO Qi been very busy with work recently? He seems to always come home late and disregard dinner too," the butler said worriedly.

"Work at the end of the year is always a little busy. Next time, you can prepare dinner a little later."

"Alright, First Master," the butler answered, then ordered for the servants to heat up the dishes again.

They had just taken away the dishes when Morrison suddenly walked in with huge strides from outside. His expression was solemn as he held his phone in his hand. He walked over to Qi Lei's side.

"First Master!" Morrison said in a lowered voice.

"What is it?" Qi Feng flipped to another page of the magazine in hand as he calmly answered.

Morrison's expression was tense. He hesitated, then bent down slightly to say softly by Qi Feng's ear, "First Master, earlier, our people called to say that they saw CEO Qi going over to the Grand Lake Villa area. Also, Secretary Wang Chun brought some ingredients along too. They stayed at Grand Lake Villa for more than two hours before they left. When they left, CEO Qi seemed to be in a pretty good mood."

When Morrison finished, Qi Feng stopped what he was doing. He looked at Morrison with a gloomy gaze while his raspy voice had an air of suppression. "Is this true?"

Morrison nodded to confirm. "It must be. CEO Qi's been going there quite often. In fact, Second Master's new company is launching soon, so I think it must be because of that. CEO Qi doesn't seem to put much heart into the annual shareholders' meeting, First Master, do you think CEO Qi's got some kind of plan? I feel like his recent movements have been quite odd. We can't tell what he's trying to do."

Morrison could not help but bring up his suspicion. As he thought about all that had happened recently, he had a feeling. It seemed as if the whole thing was gradually leaving their control. Some of these variables made them uneasy, and the suspense only intensified.

Qi Feng's eyes dimmed as he looked at the bleak lights out the window. His silent face turned stiff, and he could not help but feel faintly disappointed...

He did not know why, but he suddenly felt as if he was slowly losing something. Suddenly, he frowned.

"Master, what should we do now? At such a critical time, we can't let there be any drastic changes!" Morrison said worriedly.

Since they had been preparing for so long, he did not want their hard work to just go to waste. Qi Qiming's attitude was very important, so they dared not treat this lightly.

Qi Feng did not say anything. He fell silent for a long time before reaching out to use the walking stick on the side and slowly standing up.

After another long treatment, his legs had recovered much more, and right now he could walk quite a distance with the help of a walking stick.

"First Master!"

When he saw Qi Feng walk away, Morrison could not help but call out anxiously. However, he only heard Qi Feng's raspy and cold voice.
