Ruled out!

When these words entered Lan Xiu’s mind, he could not help but turn pale. His hand that was holding the cup tightened!

Yes, he was right. He, Lan Xiu, was ruled out!

Qi Lei’s gaze turned sharp. Seeing that his expression was not good, he slowly stood up—

“I know you like her, but from the moment you rejected her, you’ve already lost all your right. Also, you’ll know that in this world, there’s absolutely no one more suitable for her than me, Qi Lei. This is fated. She’s mine.”

Qi Lei gritted his teeth as he finished the rest of his sentence. His gaze was unusually determined!

Lan Xiu’s breathing stopped for a moment. When he looked back at Qi Lei, he had already taken a step forward..

“Your love rival isn’t me. I’ve always been the guardian behind her, that’s all.”

In the end, Lan Xiu said this to Qi Lei’s back.

Qi Lei was stunned for a moment, but his footsteps did not slow down at all

He could talk about the rest later. Who cared about his love rival? Anyway, he and Dongfang Liuyun were progress well now. Why should he disturb the peace between them because of these trivial matters?

This was extremely unwise. The conflict that caused trouble was the most unjust!

...

Qi Lei left just like that. When Lan Xiu came back to his senses, his figure was long gone.

He sat there for a long time before leaving in a daze.

On the way home, the chauffeur drove, and Ah Li was in the passenger seat.

Ah Li had been looking at Lan Xiu in the back seat through the car mirror.

He saw that Lan Xiu had a depressed look on his face and seemed to be troubled.

“President Lan, it’s the Mid-autumn Festival soon. Do you want to prepare a gift? President Gan called. He said that he will prepare food and wine at home on the night of the Mid-autumn Festival, that you and Miss Dongfang should go home. Every year, you...”

“Just prepare a gift and send it over for me. This year, I won’t go over.”

Lan Xiu’s indifferent tone sounded unperturbed.

Yes, if he was in City Z, he would definitely go to Dongfang Gan’s place on the Mid-autumn Festival. But this year, it seemed..

It was only at this time that he could deeply understand that the so-called liveliness belonged to them. He felt that he had nothing.

“President Lan...”

Ah Li was shocked and turned his head to look at him. All he could see was the gloomy side profile of Lan Xiu.

“President Gan will definitely feel very regretful.”

Ah Li thought for a moment before replying.

Lan Xiu closed his eyes and thought for a long time before saying, “Then let’s go over on the 16th.”

It was their family reunion. It was expected that there was nothing for Lan Xiu to do. If he went, it would be bad. However, he still had to go over to Dongfang Gan’s side to take a look.

“Alright, I understand, President Lan!”

Ah Li replied with a hint of helplessness in his voice.

...

Dongfang Liuyun naturally did not know that Lan Xiu had gone to look for Qi Lei.

At this time, Dongfang Liuyun was busy with the Mid-autumn Festival event. The matter of the previous proposal had gone unanswered. Later on, Dongfang Rou’er had actually gone back to rummage through the forest garden’s paper basket, but it seemed to have been disposed of. She had not found it in the end.

Later on, because of the upcoming event and the lack of manpower in the Marketing Department, Vice President Zhang transferred Dongfang Rou’er’s people over to assist.

Dongfang Rou’er’s ability was also famous in the company. Her methods were amazing. The people in the company had long heard of her and were very impressed.

Thus, the problem came–n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Who asked you to arrange the process like this?”

In the International Exhibition Center, Dongfang Liuyun was supervising the staff’s arrangement of the venue. Ding Xiaoling brought a document over for her to look at. Dongfang Liuyun frowned as he looked at it and turned to look at Ding Xiaoling, his gaze was very sharp. “What about the process that I said before? Who told you to make the decision on your own?”

“Manager Yun, this was sent by Xiao Zhang. He said that Manager Rou insisted on her changing it. Manager Rou is still there. She said that you have no experience in this aspect, Manager Yun. This process is the most suitable.”

Ding Xiaoling withstood that extremely oppressive gaze and explained in a low voice.

Hearing this, the corners of Dongfang Liuyun’s mouth curled up into a smile, “You go and tell them that the person in charge of this activity is me, Dongfang Liuyun. If I say what to do, then do it. Otherwise, if the activity goes wrong, that so-called experienced person will be responsible. Just cause I give her some face it doesn’t mean she can step on me. I, Dongfang Liuyun, have never been a patient person.”

Her sonorous tone caused Secretary Ding to tremble slightly.

“Yes... Manager Yun!”

Secretary Ding took a deep breath.

“If you have any problems, just let her come to me directly. Making things difficult for her subordinates is something that only a fool who bullies the weak would do. Help me ask her if she, Dongfang Rou’er, is such a person. You just need to tell her exactly what I said.”

Dongfang Liuyun threw the document in her hand into the trash can at the side and walked forward. “Do as I said before. Hand it over to me before work.”

“Okay, Manager Yun!” Ding Xiaoling replied and then turned around to leave.

Dongfang Rou’er’s expression naturally did not look good when she directly passed on Dongfang Liuyun’s words to Dongfang Rou’er. However, her strong control prevented her from exploding on the spot. Instead, she chose to endure it.

On the other hand, her mother did not have such good endurance.

In Lin Yuanyuan’s office.

Lin Yuanyuan’s expression was extremely gloomy. The floor was already littered with papers. Lin Yuanyuan propped herself up at the desk in front of her with both hands, her entire body filled with stagnant anger.

“Manager Lin, don’t be angry first. This is the decision of the higher-ups, and it isn’t just Vice President Ren who has the final say. We still don’t know what situation Vice President Yi is in. If we can’t hold it in now, we will be at a disadvantage when the time comes!”

The secretary reminded him.

Lin Yuanyuan listened and took a deep breath. She could not hold back his anger and said, “They really know how to do it. We went through a lot to get this project, so why should we let second brother get a piece of the pie? Those old families didn’t want to offend either side. Even Dongfang Gan had tossed away this problem. Tai Yu Corporation’s attitude was still unclear, but they had made these things happen quite quickly! Why didn’t we see them actively mobilize over there back then? They’re obviously ready-made. Second brother, he’s always been such a shrewd person!”

“Manager Lin, this is actually not a bad thing. This project is so complicated, it’s naturally best if we can share some of the burden...”
