Chapter 1602: It Must Be Him! (3)
The Dongfang couple exchanged a look, and both of them fell silent.
Dongfang Gan was silent for a long time before he slowly said, “Perhaps this is not important to Liuyun. Besides, this is not what we want. Do you know Liuyun’s past? How much do you really know about her?”
“I don’t want to pursue her past. All I can see is the present and look forward to tomorrow, because everyone has their own past. Since it has already happened, we don’t have the ability to change it. The only thing we can grasp is the present and plan for tomorrow.”
Qi Lei was very open-minded. He had thought that perhaps Dongfang Liuyun had a past that was not beautiful, and he, Qi Lei, was he not also a scum in the past? If she could choose him, why did he have to worry so much? It would naturally be best if they could let go of all this.
Moreover, Dongfang Liuyun was mostly clear about his matters. When he was down and out, even he looked down on himself. She could even calmly drink and play games with him, treating him as an ally, a good partner, a good comrade. Just based on these, he felt that she would definitely be a choice that he would not regret.
“This thing about tomorrow isn’t just talk. To be honest, I don’t approve of the two of you being together. She should…”
Although Song Siting was slightly moved by what he said, she still had some rationality. In comparison, she understood Fujiwara better, and Fujiwara…
She preferred Fujiwara more. This was not an opinion that could be easily changed.
“I should what?”
However, before Song Siting could finish her sentence, a cold voice came from upstairs.
The few of them immediately turned around and saw Dongfang Liuyun standing on the stairs. She was leisurely holding the railing with one hand and looking down at them from above. There was an indifferent expression on her calm face, it was as if one could always catch a hint of mockery.
“Go on, I’m listening. I want to see what kind of person a person like me can match up to.”
Seeing that they had not spoken for a long time, Dongfang Liuyun walked down unhurriedly. Her lazy posture gave off an imposing aura. Song Siting and Dongfang Gan could not help but exchange glances, the husband and wife both slightly restrained their overbearing manner.
Dongfang Liuyun walked down the stairs and walked towards them in a few large strides. She stopped when she reached the table. She lowered her gaze and casually glanced at the document. She reached out and picked it up. After flipping through it, a smile quickly appeared on her face, she glanced at Qi Lei, who was coughing lightly and reaching out to snatch the document back.
Dongfang Liuyun turned to avoid him. She looked at him and smiled. “Do you really want to give me control over the finances?”
“Why not?” Qi Lei cleared his throat and replied in a low voice.
“It’s better not to bring out these things casually. I was the one who forced myself on you and forced you to marry me. Did you really think that I treated you just as a playmate because I’ve been asking you out for drinks and playing games with you every night?”
Dongfang Liuyun’s clear voice came through. Her starry eyes were filled with mockery as she looked at Qi Lei with a profound gaze. It was as if there was a darkness that gathered in the depths of her eyes that could not be dissolved.
‘Cough cough—’
Qi lei choked on his words. He stared at her with his eyes wide open. When he saw her affectionate expression, he was completely stunned—
What did she mean by forcing him?
What did she mean by forcing him to marry her?
Also, what did she mean by that last part?
After being stunned for a while, Qi Lei’s sharp eyes caught the teasing look in her eyes. Only then did he react. Thus, they cooperated very well. He stared at her in a daze and said with some doubt, “Isn’t it?”
Dongfang Liuyun closed the document in her hand and casually handed it to Yang Sheng, who was also stunned. She took a deep breath, picked up a cup of tea on the table, and drank it. Then, she frowned and said, “It’s not a matter of one or two days that I’ve taken a fancy to you. I, Dongfang Liuyun, have never believed in a man that I can’t conquer. I like the charisma on you, it reminds me of how I was back then. I thought, if I could spend the rest of my life with another me, that wouldn’t be a bad idea. It was my fault for taking advantage the other night, I drank too much as well,” said Dongfang Liuyun indifferently.
Dongfang Gan and Song Siting’s expressions changed drastically. They had yet to react!
What did she mean?
Did their daughter mean that she was the one who had..
Dongfang Gan could not believe it. His dark eyes locked tightly onto Dongfang Liuyun’s small face. He tried his best to catch any traces of it. However, it seemed like he knew his daughter well. She did not seem like she would joke about something like this.
Song Siting was also a little flustered and exasperated. She stared coldly at Dongfang Liuyun and said coldly, “You’re a girl. How can you say such a thing? Shameless! How did I give birth to a daughter like you!”
“Currently, only the few of us know. If you want the entire world to know what your daughter has done, you can say it out loud. I’m trying my best to remedy this mistake. Everyone is happy. What’s wrong with that? Anyway, you often tell me that I’m in my late twenties and not young anymore.”
“Shut up! You’re really going to make me so angry that you’re willing to do that, aren’t you?”
Song Siting took a deep breath. She did not want to lose her temper, but…
“That’s how it is now. Anyway, it must be him! Legally, we are already a couple. If you want to make my life more difficult, you can maintain your attitude. I respect you, but I don’t want to leave my fate in your hands, so I chose the person I like. We are of equal status, and I didn’t bring shame to you. I think you should support me and respect me. At least, this is mutual, isn’t it?”
Dongfang Liuyun’s tone was very calm. She had always been like this. Compared to a heart-wrenching expression, she would rather remain calm. At least, she could remain calm and clear-headed at all times.
“Liuyun, don’t talk to mother and father like that. They’re only concerned about you.”
Qi Lei could feel the helplessness and coldness from Dongfang Liuyun. After thinking for a moment, he reached out and gently held her slightly cold hand. He turned to look at Dongfang Gan and Song Siting, “Father, mother, Liuyun knows that you all mean well. Don’t worry. No matter what happens, I’ll treat her well.”
“In this matter, I have to follow my own heart. I have to make my own decisions about my marriage unless you want me to follow your path.”
Dongfang Liuyun’s tone was unusually determined.
