At this point, Song Siting suddenly paused. After some thought, she continued—

“Your father told me about Qi Lei, in fact, he saved me before. My old illness flared up the last time, it was all thanks to him for sending me to the hospital in time. Actually, he’s a pretty good person, especially after observing him for some time.”

..

“But Liuyun, will you be happy marrying him like this? You don’t love him at all! Your gaze can’t fool anyone. Even if you’re protective over him, I can still tell that there are no deep feelings between the two of you. Mother has seen too many examples like this. I really don’t wish for you to be unhappy.”

When Song Siting said this, Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes darkened. She thought for a moment, and a cold and indifferent smile appeared on the corner of her indifferent mouth. Her tone was very calm—

“Happy? What do you think is happiness for me? I don’t even know what that is. How can I have It? You don’t have to always use your viewpoint to demand things of me and restrict me. You just have to manage your own problems, I’m not your employee. How many things have I been able to do according to my own wishes all these years? What else do you want from me? Divorce Qi Lei and marry Fujiwara according to your wishes?”

Dongfang Liuyun’s gaze suddenly turned sharp as a blade. She looked coldly at Song Siting and her tone instantly turned as cold as ice—

“That will never happen! I will only follow my own heart. Moreover, Qi Lei and I are already a legitimate couple. I want to see how the both of you plan to oppose me!”

Dongfang Liuyun’s attitude naturally caused Song Siting’s expression to instantly darken, but Song Siting could still suppress the raging anger in her heart. “Even if I tacitly agree to the both of you, don’t forget that your on grandmother’s side...”

“I never agreed to use my own marriage as a foil for my family. If she wants to interfere in my marriage, she’ll have to see if I’m willing to let her. In the past, when grandfather was still around, he didn’t dare to interfere in my marriage either. Is she really that bold!”

“She’s also doing this for your own good. In this matter...”

“If it’s really for my own good, then respect my choice. Don’t stop me from going my way. I’ve always respected you. As a mother, you’re a very good role model for me.”

“But you’ve always wanted to control me. Your desire for control is too strong. I’m not like father, who can handle it with ease. I have my own path in life, and you can’t help me finish it. No one has the right to set the path for others, even parents. I’ve never liked emotional blackmail, always saying that it’s for my own good, and wanting to arrange everything for me.”

“Marriage is my bottom line. I can’t face the person I hate to spend the rest of my life with me. If it were you, would you be able to do that? I’m very firm on this issue, and I don’t want to talk about these things every time I come home. I only want to live a simple and ordinary life now. Please don’t force me.”

“Liuyun!”

Song Siting could not help but feel a headache coming on. This was happening again!

Before she could say anything else, Dongfang Liuyun had already turned around and left—

“I know Fujiwara wants to return to City Z, but don’t harbor any illusions. I’m already Qi Lei’s wife now. I won’t be abandoning what I started. He used everything he had to bet on this marriage, I won’t let him lose even if it kills me. The past is in the past, who can guarantee that I won’t fall in love with him?”

Dongfang Liuyun’s words drifted in the cool wind, and her slender figure disappeared into the corridor in front of her.

Song Siting was stunned and did not come back to her senses for a long time...

Was she really just going to let her do as she pleased?

Or had it always been like this? Had she been doing it all wrong?

No!

If she had not supervised her, she would not have been so outstanding today. One’s potential was limitless, sometimes, it was necessary. She had long played the role of a strict mother.

If she could have a better life in the future, she did not mind that she hated her more now.

...

When they returned to the living room, Dongfang Gan and Qi Lei were still discussing the South River Project. Dongfang Liuyun walked over silently and sat down beside Qi Lei.

From their conversation, Dongfang Liuyun seemed to be able to catch a hint of admiration for Qi Lei on Dongfang Gan’s face.

Dongfang Gan was a veteran in the business world. To be honest, Dongfang Liuyun knew that her father had always been a reserved person. It was rare for him to have such an expression towards anyone.

“Alright, let’s do as you say. My flight is tomorrow afternoon at two o’clock. Before I leave, I’ll get Vice President Zhang to finalize the agreement. If the matter over there ends quickly and I can rush back earlier, we can talk about this proposal sooner. Otherwise, Liuyun can supervise it on my behalf. She knows quite a bit about this case,” said Dongfang Gan.

Qi Lei nodded. “Don’t worry, Father. I’ll keep an eye on this side.”

“Yes. In short, I’ll have to trouble you. You’re already married to Liuyun now and can be considered a member of the Dongfang family. I’m afraid Liuyun will need you to keep an eye on her in the future. Although she is quite smart, she doesn’t have much experience in the business world. I’ll try my best to come back as soon as possible. Don’t worry about your mother. Although she didn’t say anything, she has tacitly acknowledged you. Our requirements are actually very simple.”

Dongfang Gan suddenly turned his gaze to Dongfang Liuyun. “Just treat her well and don’t let her fight alone.”

“Enough, Father! Don’t ask for so many things. How do you know it’s not your daughter who’s fighting alongside him? He’s not familiar with the Dongfang family’s matters, so don’t make things too difficult for him. There are some things that I can resolve on my own. If I can’t resolve them on my own, I won’t be too polite with him either.”

Dongfang Liuyun was speaking the truth. She felt very at ease asking Qi Lei to help her. It was like in the game, she seemed to have the final say, and Qi Lei himself was very willing to cooperate with her, as long as it was not a matter of principle, he would do his best to satisfy her.

On this point, she was quite grateful. Of course, she also understood that there were not many people who could do the best.

When you first meet Qi Lei, you might not think much of him. However, after getting to know him better, you would know that he was also a sensitive person. Of course, he had the gentleness of a man too.

No matter what, he was really good to her. It was also because of this that Dongfang Liuyun was even more determined about her feelings. That was why she answered Song Siting like that.
