Chapter 1782: Missing (3)
The light of dawn tore through a corner of the sky. When the gray haze outside the window was dispelled by the rays of dawn, Qi Lei woke up.
In fact, Qi Lei did not really fall asleep. Of course, he did not dare to sleep. It was not until dawn, when the doctor said that the situation had stabilized, that he finally relaxed and took a nap.
He raised his hand to rub his tired eyes. Suddenly, he felt something pressing down on his shoulder. He subconsciously turned his head to look and realized that Dongfang Liuyun was sleeping soundly on his shoulder.
She was really exhausted. She had been busy for the past few days, and now...
A faint fragrance assaulted him. Her beautiful long hair draped over her shoulders. She looked worn out.
Qi Lei subconsciously reached out and touched her head. He turned to look out the window. A ray of dawn had already shone through the window, and the soft light scattered all over the floor in front of the window.
"Let's go home."
Qi Lei said this in a low voice. Then, he helped her steady herself and got up. He bent down slightly and easily carried her up. He strode toward the door.
Outside the door, Qi Lei had just come out with Dongfang Liuyun in his arms when he caught up with Yang Sheng who had just rushed over.
"Master Qi..."
The moment Yang Sheng spoke, Qi lei gave him a cold stare. Yang Sheng shuddered and immediately noticed Dongfang Liuyun in Qi Lei's arms. He immediately reached out to cover his mouth and sucked in a breath of cold air. Then, he said in a low voice, "Master Qi, you..."
"Old man Qi's condition has stabilized. We'll be going back first. Make arrangements for the rest. Call me if anything happens. Ask the driver to drive the car to the deck by the roadside of the hospital."
Qi Lei's voice was a little tired and hoarse. He did not sound very energetic at the moment.
It was no wonder. He had endured for so many days. It would be strange if he could hold on.
Yang Sheng quickly replied in a low voice, "Alright, Master Qi! I'll make the arrangements right away! You and Missus should rest at home for the next few days. Vice President Wang Chun and the others will take care of the matters in the company."
"Okay," Qi Lei replied flatly and continued walking forward.
Dongfang Liuyun slept very soundly. Even after Qi Lei placed her in the car, she did not wake up. She was still sleeping soundly on Qi Lei's lap.
Dongfang Liuyun slept soundly, but Qi Lei did not feel sleepy, even though his eyes were bloodshot from exhaustion.
The atmosphere in the car was very warm. He was leisurely tending to her messy hair, so his movements were very light.
The phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated. He frowned and quickly picked it up.
Of course, it was a very familiar number.
"It's me."
Qi Lei's indifferent voice was transmitted over.
"The matter has been settled. Lin Yonghua spent a lot of money at the casino last night. Dongfang Yu was the strategist. In one night, they lost 300 million. Lin Yonghua wrote an IOU and put down his fingerprint."
A low and hoarse voice came from the other end.
Qi Lei's dark eyes darkened, and he said lightly, "I feel rest assured with you on the job. Now, take the IOU and go to the Lin Corporation to collect the debt. If he can't pay the debt within three days, get them to use the Lin Corporation to pay the debt and prepare a few more astute appraisers. We don't have much time."
"Understood. It's already prepared. Ah Lai has called for it. There won't be any changes."
The person on the other end continued.
"Mmm, find some time to arrange things and make a trip back to City Z. You handled the matter with Qi Feng well last time."
Qi Lei was silent for a moment before saying.
"As long as you're satisfied. By the way, Fujiwara's private jet has arrived in City Z. He's a madman. You have to be careful. Don't be attacked from both sides."
The person reminded him.
Qi Lei paused for a moment before replying, "Got it."
"Perfunctory! I don't understand what's so good about this Dongfang Liuyun. There are plenty of beautiful women like her in Victoria. They're worth tens of thousands for a night of fun. Do you have any type you want? You're really going back to your old ways."
There was a hint of disdain in his low and hoarse voice, but it sounded even more helpless.
"Come and talk to me about this when you're married," replied Qi Lei.
"Hmph!"
The person on the other end snorted coldly and was very disdainful.
"I'm waiting for good news. I'm a little tired, that's all for now."
As Qi Lei said this, he did not wait for the person on the other end to make a sound and just hung up the phone.
...
"Master, something's happened to Master Qi."
In Glory World Corporation's Chairman's office, Li Si's slightly heavy voice sounded exceptionally clear in the quiet space.
Mu Yuchen, who was reading the documents, suddenly looked up and looked over—
"What happened?"
Mu Yuchen frowned slightly and asked.
"Last night, President Qi was critically ill. I heard that he only recovered after staying up all night. I've already called Yang Sheng to confirm it, but he's temporarily out of critical stage now." Li Si replied.
Mu Yuchen nodded when he heard that.
"But yesterday was the Elder Madam Dongfang Shuman's birthday, and Miss Dongfang stayed in the hospital with him all night. I heard that when Miss Dongfang asked her secretary, Miss Ding, to send the gift over, Dongfang Shuman rejected it..."
"I'm afraid Qi Lei has hit a brick wall this time. Everyone in the Dongfang family isn't easy to deal with, but he went ahead bravely." Mu Yuchen smiled.
"That's right, Master. He's a true person who doesn't care about his own life for love. He knows that it's muddy water, yet he's still going forward. Who knows what will happen in this abyss of suffering?"
Li Si could not help but say.
"Let Qi Lei and the others handle these matters themselves. Let me see what's going on with Zhou Zimo's side."
Mu Yuchen knew about Qi Lei's situation. Qi Lei had matured a lot now, unlike Zhou Zimo. With his random tricks, he would be lucky if Qin Su was not planning on getting back at him
Especially since...
When he thought about this, Mu Yuchen could not help but have another headache. However, before he could calm down, a call came in. When he looked at the caller ID, it was actually...
Uncle Zhou!
Zhou Zhenjun!
Zhou Zimo's father!
Mu Yuchen was a little surprised, but he quickly picked up the call.
"Hello? Ah Chen? It's me, your Uncle Zhou. Is Zimo at your place?"
"Zimo? He hasn't come to my place for a few days. What's wrong?"
Looking for Zhou Zimo?
Mu Yuchen could not help but feel a little puzzled.
"This bastard. He can hide now, but he can't hide forever!"
"Uncle Zhou, are you fussing over Zimo's marriage again?"
Mu Yuchen could already guess without even thinking.
"There's nothing else I need to worry about apart from this. Once I've caught him, I'll shoot him to save trouble! A good-for-nothing who can't even handle a woman!"
