Hearing the footsteps, the two of them stopped and subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound.

Seeing the figure of Dongfang Liuyun walking in, Song Siting took a deep breath and looked Dongfang Liuyun up and down. She did not see anything unusual on her and was finally relieved.

"What did your grandmother say?"

Song Siting did not catch the emotion on Dongfang Liuyun's face, so she asked curiously.

Dongfang Liuyun stopped beside Qi Lei and looked down at Song Siting. She reached out to take the apple that Qi Lei had just peeled and took a bite. She ate it slowly and replied, "What do you think she said?"

"If I could guess it, I wouldn't ask you," said Song Siting.

"When you recover and finish the case at hand, you can stay by Father's side with peace of mind. You can be a private consultant or a private secretary. Grandmother is right, there are too many accidents, and you won't be so lucky every time. As long as dad cares about you, you don't have to prove anything. Your status is already admirable, why do you still need to be so strong at a time like this?"

Dongfang Liuyun said calmly.

"Is that what your grandmother told you?"

Song Siting's eyes darkened.

"There were too many things talked about, it's useless even if I tell you. Take care of your health. We'll go back first. Grandmother will probably send someone over tonight. If you can't handle it, give me a call."

Dongfang Liuyun put the apple in her hand on the table dispiritedly. She reached out and pulled Qi Lei, who had been silent all this while.

Qi Lei's eyes darkened. He subconsciously glanced at her. He could clearly feel that something was wrong with her expression. She must have been wronged at the old Dongfang residence?

Song Siting did not say anything when she saw this. She just watched as her daughter pulled Qi Lei out tightly.

Qi Lei said a simple sentence to let her rest well. In an instant, the ward was empty.

"What happened?"

Qi Lei let her pull him all the way to the car parked by the hospital door. He frowned and asked.

"Does it look like something happened to me?"

Dongfang Liuyun slowly let go of him. Seeing the worry in his eyes, she thought for a moment and suddenly reached out to hold his handsome face. She leaned forward and kissed his slightly cold lips wantonly...

Before Qi Lei could react, her lingering scent had already entangled him. He did not care about anything and just wrapped one hand around her slender waist and the other hand to hold her head. He silently responded.

After a moment of warmth, Dongfang Liuyun slowly retreated and threw herself into his warm embrace. Her voice was grave and somewhat hoarse, but her starry eyes were silently looking at him. At this moment, Qi Lei could also catch a hint of weakness in her eyes.

"Would you sacrifice yourself for me?" She asked.

Qi Lei paused for a moment, then suddenly hugged her tightly. "Of course, only you have the right."

"Grandmother may disqualify me as the successor. I may..."

"Don't worry, the Dongfang Group will definitely be yours. Trust me."

Qi Lei patted her head and took a deep breath. "Give me some time."

"I can't lose it. I promised Grandfather. Also, Grandfather and Father have put in too much effort into it. Naturally, I don't want to see the Dongfang family fall apart. I don't know when I started worrying about the Dongfang family too."

"Because, in the end, we still can't get past ourselves. We can't be truly ruthless."

Qi Lei recalled how he and Qi Feng were just like this back then?

"Can we persevere together?" Dongfang Liuyun asked again.

"Yes," he replied.

Hearing this, Dongfang Liuyun eased up a little. She took a deep breath and subconsciously wrapped her arms around him tightly, "Remember what we said today. In the future, if you have a hard time holding on, don't give up easily. I've decided to hold your hand and grow old together with you. Do you understand?"

When she said this, Qi Lei felt an inexplicable warmth in his heart. Of course, he did not doubt the authenticity of her words. He nodded solemnly and replied, "Yes."

"Alright, don't worry. There will be a way. Go home. It's getting late."

After a while, he pulled her out of his arms. His deep voice sounded emotional, "It's not a big deal. As long as we have enough strength, we don't have to worry that we'll lose. I know that you might be worried about Fujiwara. If you can't face him, I'll do what I can and work harder."

Qi Lei smiled and patted her head.

"You know about Fujiwara?"

Dongfang Liuyun heard this and quickly looked up at him. Her starry eyes were filled with doubt.

Qi Lei did not answer. His large hand slid down and held her shoulders. He reached out to open the car door and signaled for her to sit in.

Dongfang Liuyun saw this and naturally took it as his tacit agreement. She obediently sat in the passenger seat.

Qi Lei quickly got into the car and started the engine.

Dongfang Liuyun did not ask any more questions. The couple was just so silent. After a while, Dongfang Liuyun closed her eyes and leaned against his shoulder.

"Have you ever thought of marrying another woman?"

After a while, Dongfang Liuyun suddenly asked in a low voice.

"Marrying?"

Qi Lei paused for a moment. He subconsciously turned around and glanced at her. Seeing that her eyes were still closed, he thought for a moment before replying, "My family mentioned it before, but as long as I didn't want to, they couldn't force me. At that time, I was still very willful and did as I pleased, no one could do anything about me. Plus, I didn't necessarily care about the family business, so there was no threat."

"So sometimes, I envy those who can do whatever they want. They don't have to be like us. Most of the time, they can't help themselves."

Dongfang Liuyun could not help but sigh. "Over the years, I've long gotten used to it. Even if it's hard to persevere, I still have to continue."

"Life isn't just for us to enjoy. You used to be more open-minded than me, but now you still have such feelings?"

Qi Lei smiled and glanced at her.

"I don't want to either."

Dongfang Liuyun replied indifferently. She paused and said helplessly, "But the problem is there. What do you want me to do? Alright, let's not talk about this. How's Father? I asked them just now. They said that you went there to take a look. He should be stable now, right?"

Dongfang Liuyun asked with concern.

Hearing that, Qi Lei's eyes darkened. His expression was indifferent. "He's stable for now. The situation after that is still unclear."

"That's good. Sometimes, thinking about it, the two of us don't seem to have very good luck..."
