    “There’s no need to prepare much. It’s not a grand wedding anyway. Besides, it doesn’t seem like there’s a need for us to be lively anymore.” Dongfang Liuyun smiled and said.


    “Even if we’re doing it simple, there must be ns.”


    Qi Lei did not talk too much about the wedding. He had already nned to give her the most memorable wedding of her life.


    “You decide. Don’t be toote. I’ve already prepared the bath water for you, clothes are on the shelf. Hurry up and wash up then rest early.”


    Understanding that he had been through a lot today, Dongfang Liuyun said that as she helped to pack up the tea set.


    Qi Lei looked at her deeply but did not say anything. He just watched her quietly pack up her things.


    “Hurry up and take a shower. Why are you looking at me?”


    Seeing that he did not move, Dongfang Liuyun immediately frowned.


    Only then did Qi Lei quietly get up and leave the tea room. He did not take his phone and coat, so Dongfang Liuyun could only help him take them up.


    When Qi Lei came out of the bathroomfortably, Dongfang Liuyun was already lying on the bed. She was flipping through a photo album on antiques in her hand. When she heard movement, she looked up as well.


    “What are you looking at?”


    Qi Lei sat down by the bed and turned his head to look at her.


    “It’s a new album. Just now, Secretary Ding called me. Thepensation for De Bao House has been settled. The insurancepany will also bear most of the responsibility. I want to open a new shop. Although the losses in the shop are quite serious, many valuable items have not been affected, so...”


    “I’ll get someone to help you deal with it tomorrow. Renovate De Bao House and buy the two shops next to it to expand the scale, hmm?” Qi Lei asked.


    Dongfang Liuyun frowned. “There’s no need to cover such arge area. Just renovate it. Anyway, you’re quite familiar with people in this area. I’ll leave it to you. Once the renovation is done, I’ll thank you properly.”


    “Then how are you going to thank me?”


    Qi Lei narrowed his eyes at her. His gaze swept across her fair face unexpectedly, and sparks could not be suppressed in his dark eyes. Before Dongfang Liuyun could react, he had already reached out to take the book in her hand.


    “You... Oh!”


    A warm aura came onto her. She could not say a word, and then she was imprisoned under him. “Pay me somepensation first.”


    ...


    After tossing and turning until midnight, themotion in the room finally stopped.


    “I’m going abroad tomorrow, I don’t know how long I’ll be gone for. I’ve already arranged things here. You’re alone. Be careful. If there’s anything, tell Wang Chun and Yang Sheng. They’ll help.”


    Seeing that Dongfang Liuyun was about to fall asleep from exhaustion, Qi Lei pulled the nket for her and said softly.


    “Hmm? Going abroad? Where to?”


    Dongfang Liuyun immediately woke up slightly when she heard the news. She hurriedly propped herself up and looked at her doubtfully.


    “There are some matters in Southeast Asia that need to be dealt with. I’ll be back as soon as possible. You have to take good care of yourself while I’m away. You have to be on your guard against the Dongfang Group’s matters,” Qi Lei reminded her worriedly.


    “I’ll go with you...” Dongfang Liuyun said.


    “You’re in a critical period now. It’s better for you to stay here. This way, I can be at ease.”


    “Then, I’ll get up and help you pack your things.”


    Dongfang Liuyun struggled to get up, but Qi Lei pressed down on her shoulders. “There’s no need, Liuyun. The arrangements have been made. There’s no need to prepare anything here.”


    “Then,e back soon...”


    “Yes, go to sleep.”


    ...


    The next morning, Qi Lei woke up when the sun had just risen. To be more precise, he did not sleep much. He spent the entire night feeling her presence.


    At dawn, Yang Sheng came to pick her up. Breakfast was prepared downstairs. The children and Dongfang Liuyun did not wake up either. It was probably because they were too tired from ying yesterday.


    The weather outside was naturally very cold, but inside, it was as warm as spring.


    After Qi Lei finished tidying up, he turned to look at therge bed in front of him. He saw that Dongfang Liuyun was sleeping soundly. He thought for a moment before walking over.


    He stopped beside her and looked down at her. After a long while, he bent down slightly and nted a light kiss on her forehead. His slender fingersbed her messy long hair, and his tone was as soft as water


    “Dongfang Liuyun, I, Qi Lei, am willing to use my eternal time in exchange for you to shine like a star. When I return, we will hold a wedding...”


    After saying that, he got up reluctantly and pulled up the nket for her before turning around to leave.


    Dongfang Liuyun was in a daze. She could only vaguely sense that someone was whispering in her ear. The familiar aura made her feel at ease, so she did not open her eyes.


    ...


    “Master Qi!”


    Qi Lei had just walked down the stairs when Yang Sheng came up to him.


    “Let’s go.”


    Qi Lei walked straight to the door, and Yang Sheng followed behind him silently.


    “Master Qi, why don’t I apany you? I’m worried about you going alone. Also, I’m worried about President Qi...”


    Yang Sheng was worried as he watched Qi Lei go alone. He felt that this matter was a little tricky.


    “Don’t you have bodyguards with you? If you go over, who will watch over this ce? You must ensure the safety of this ce. After I go over, I’ll depend on you to watch over your Missus and the Old Man Qi. Also, don’t tell Old Man Qi about my things.”


    Qi Lei naturally did not want to create unnecessaryplications. Qi Qiming was currently in the recuperation stage, so it was best to let him recuperate in peace.


    “Yes, Master Qi. We’ll remember it,” Yang Sheng replied silently.


    “When youe backter, send Xiao Rui and Wei’er back to Maple Residence with your Missus. Wang Chun will personally apany Dongfang Rou’er’s wedding.”


    “Don’t worry, Master Qi. We will definitely take good care of Missus.”


    Yang Sheng naturally had some petty concerns in his heart. Who knew if Fujiwara woulde looking for them again? It was not easy for Master Qi to find someone he liked. Of course, they had the obligation to help them keep an eye on her.


    “I didn’t ask you to keep an eye on her, just protect her. I don’t want any idents to happen during this period of time. Also, you have to pay more attention to the renovation of De Bao House.”


    Qi Lei did not forget the promise he made to Dongfang Liuyun yesterday.


    “Yes, Master Qi!”


    The two of them walked out of their house one after the other. It was a chilly wind outside. Qi Lei only felt a chill. He tightened his coat and strode towards the car in front.


    Yang Sheng also got into the car and sent him to the airport.
