Qi Lei was not giving in at all as he replied in a calm tone. His wicked-looking eyes were glancing over at Qi Fengâs face as well.
âYou know that I donât like to compromise myself on a lot of things. If Iâm not even allowed to have my own attitude, whatâs the difference from being a dead man? I wish you luck if you insist on playing the good guy and make the family proud because Iâm not interested at all. Iâm all alone and I donât care about anything. I have nothing to lose.â Qi Lei stared deeper into Qi Fengâs eyes, chuckling at the end of his speech.
Qi Feng was not angry at all. His expression was still calm as usual. It seemed like there was not really anything that could throw him off anymore. He returned the glance at Qi Lei and smiled. âAttitude? True, you have your own attitude. You look much better than when youâre flailing around doing nothing and being a useless Second Master Qi. Donât you care about anything? Or do you think you can really go against us just because Mu Yuchen is on your side?â
Qi Feng had made a lot of guesses before. With Qi Leiâs current relationship with Mu Yuchen, if Qi Lei was actually interested in Xi Xiaye, he was still able to mix with Mu Yuchen and Su Chenâs bunch, which also meant that Mu Yuchen knew but did not care.
He fully understood the true terror of Mu Yuchen. Qi Feng was already impressed based just on his generosity and intellect alone! However, the more trustful and relaxed someone was, it was easier to be surprised to the point of despair!
For instance, Mu Lingtian was driven into despair and had nearly crumbled!
Qi Feng thought of Mu Yuchen as his strongest opponent and enemy, so he spent a lot of time analyzing him. He never stopped gathering news about Mu Yuchen even when he was abroad. It was not as if he did not know Mu Yuchen and Qi Lei were getting closer, but the speed of his information network slowed down slightly when he had been busy preparing to return lately.
Qi Lei was surprised that Qi Feng would reveal it so easily, but he was not stupid. Qi Feng would be wasting his time if he had come here to find out more from him. On high alert at the moment, Qi Lei already made an agreement with Mu Yuchen that he would not say a word about them.
âDo you really I think I need help? Just because you have a grudge against Mu Yuchen, canât I have a drink with him? He just gave me some gifts some time ago, so I have to treat him appropriately somehow. I have my own socializing rules. I donât think itâs wise to make another enemy when being a friend is an option. At least, when Iâm lazy to cook, I can shamelessly head over and stick with them for dinner. You know very well I nearly know nothing in the kitchen, and I heard from Yang Sheng that the higher-ups planned to demote me. Iâm a poor man. What should I do about my future expenses if I donât consider befriending a millionaire right now?â
Qi Lei put on a pitiful and innocent expression. Qi Feng found his smile annoying, but his expression remained unchanged.
âQi Lei, you know weâre brothers and we can be straightforward with each other. You can keep your tricks for stupid fools like Yang Sheng.â
Naturally, Qi Feng noticed that Qi Lei was trying to cover things up.
Qi Lei shrugged as he ran his fingers through his hair. âI canât help it if you donât believe me. I suppose Iâm done talking right now. Besides, donât insult the word âbrothersâ! My mother only gave birth to one son. Who told you that youâre my brother? Youâre a handsome, thoughtful, and talented young man, and a super nice guy at that. How could you have a brother like me whoâs useless, greedy, and always loafing around? Just putting my name beside yours would sully your reputation, donât you think?â
âThatâs enough, Qi Lei!â Qi Feng could not stand it anymore as he raised his voice and his eyes turned hard. âThereâs no need for you to mock me! You know very well what youâve done in the past few years. Youâll have to upgrade yourself if you want to gain respect and recognition from others. You even gave your own father the cold shoulder. Do you really expect him to take good care of you?â
âYouâre right. Iâm useless. Then, whatâs the point of you coming to talk to me? Donât you understand by now? Weâre unrelated at all, so you can leave now! Iâve clearly told you that what happened to Qi Kai has nothing to do with me. You know what happened from the beginning to the end. Thereâs no need for me to say anything else! Donât come here and lecture me out of nowhere! Just who do you think you are? Are you trying to pick a fight with me now?â Qi Lei stood up and peered down at Qi Feng.
âQi Lei, this is not up to you. I came here today totally prepared. You know what Iâm capable of. You might feel better if youâre cooperative today, or else, donât blame me for whatâs going to happen!â Qi Fengâs patience ran out, and his expression turned icy cold as he stared at Qi Lei.
Qi Lei suddenly started laughing. His gaze turned intense as well as he glared at Qi Feng fearlessly. âAre you going to do it? Are you sure youâre going to do something to me?â
âOh, I almost forgot that youâre the same as that old man. You canât leave the old thug ways in the past! Iâm telling you now that Iâm not going to cooperate, so what can you do to me? Are you going to kill me or cripple me? Just come at me already!â In his fury, the cold gaze from Qi Leiâs eyes was terrifying. Qi Feng could sense a chilly aura from him.
Qi Feng squinted his eyes as he observed Qi Lei who was spreading an unfriendly vibe around him, and he was stunned for a moment. He was surprised to see Qi Lei like this. He was totally different from his old self. Nonetheless, he returned a cold smile. âIf you insist, donât blame me then. Morrison!â
