However, just as the couple walked out of the meeting room and turned the corner, they saw Dongfang Rou’er, who was putting away her phone.

At this moment, the smile on the couple’s faces had not faded. They were discussing something very pleasant. Dongfang Rou’er could see the harmonious scene. What surprised her even more was that Qi Lei had his arm around Dongfang Liuyun’s shoulders, the two of them were about to walk to the private elevator.

Dongfang Rou’er could not help but be surprised. She was stunned on the spot!

Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun, how...

They looked like a couple?

“Manager Rou, let’s go. The people in front are waiting for us!”

The secretary reminded her at the right time. Only then did Dongfang Rou’er pull her thoughts back. She left with the secretary in a daze, but her gaze kept on the two who were walking over.

As they watched the two people in front of them disappear into the corridor, Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun exchanged glances.

“Will there be any problems?”

Qi Lei asked in a low voice. He subconsciously let go of the arm around her shoulder.

“It’s fine. It’s just a matter of time anyway. Let’s go, I’m really hungry.” Dongfang Liuyun said indifferently. The current situation was not as bad as before. She did not have to worry about Dongfang Rou’er doing anything.

However, Dongfang Liuyun did not know that she had underestimated Dongfang Rou’er this time!

“You didn’t even eat much for breakfast.”

“I think your cooking is better than Mama Wang’s. How about you cover breakfast from now on?”

Dongfang Liuyun glanced at him and followed him into the private elevator.

“Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday, me. Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, you do it,” said Qi Lei.

Dongfang Liuyun frowned and glanced at him disapprovingly.

“Okay then, you’ll have to guarantee that I’ll be in a good mood every day.”

As Qi Lei said this, he gave her a meaningful look, but Dongfang Liuyun’s frown deepened.

...

After the South River Project was finalized, Qi Lei left City Z the next morning and rushed straight to City B. Dongfang Liuyun also began to work on the project step by step.

“Hey, do you know? I heard that our company got the South River Project because our Manager Yun used honey trap!”

“Exactly! The people who attended the meeting yesterday came back and said that President Qi from Tai Yu Corporation was very close to our Manager Yun!”

“Yeah, no wonder President Qi came out to help Manager Yun during the last Mid-autumn Festival. I didn’t expect that Manager Yun would be so good at it.”

“It’s just an unspoken rule, it’s too normal! If she get into President Qi’s bed, would he have given us the project without any reason? The capabilities of the two companies that competed with us are right there!”

“I really didn’t expect Manager Yun to be that kind of person. She seems to be quite high and mighty. To get to the top, she really went all out!”

...

At some point in time, such small talk had started to appear in the company!

When Secretary Ding came out of the washroom, her face was already covered with dark clouds!

“Where did you hear this news from? You don’t understand the situation yet you just spout nonsense. When did the company allow you to casually talk about your boss?”

A cold and harsh rebuke was heard. The few employees who were gathered in front were all shocked and hurriedly left.

Secretary Ding frowned.

Dongfang Liuyun, who was busy in the office, naturally did not know about these things. Secretary Ding wanted to say something, but she hesitated. She wanted to tell her about this, but she held it back in the end. She did not say anything. She thought that as long as she did not pay attention to this matter, the rest would naturally fall silent.

However, it was obvious that she had underestimated the viciousness of these rumors.

Qi Lei was the focus of the media’s attention. After all, he was a big shot in the movie industry. Qi Kai’s background was very deep, so the Qi family naturally received a lot of attention, not to mention the news about a legendary figure like Qi Lei.

Although Qi Lei had been keeping a low profile for the past two years, the more that was the case, the more attention the media paid to him. Especially when it was revealed that the female lead of the unspoken rules was the daughter of Dongfang Group, Dongfang Gan’s precious daughter, and the genius of the archaeology world, Dongfang Liuyun!

When Dongfang Liuyun got off work the next night, she was already surrounded by a large group of reporters downstairs. They were all asking about her and Qi Lei. The sharpness of the questions made Dongfang Liuyun frown.

What was even more worrying was that when the market opened on Monday, the Dongfang Group’s stock market started to fall. After a few days, the situation did not improve. Some shareholders were already starting to feel uneasy and asked Dongfang Liuyun to come forward to resolve the matter.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

At this moment, in Dongfang Shuman’s study in the Dongfang family’s old residence.

A burst of intense, heart-wrenching coughing could be heard coming from the study. In front of the study table, Dongfang Shuman’s old face was completely pale. Her assistant, Ah Cai, passed the medicine to her. She also took it with a trembling hand and swallowed it, it took a while for her to recover.

“President Shu, your health... why don’t we go back? It’s not suitable for you to recuperate here. Your health is getting worse. The doctor said that you need to rest more and recuperate.”

Ah Cai was naturally very worried about Dongfang Shuman’s health, especially since she had just returned. Her condition had been very bad, and Dongfang Shuman could not stay idle. She had been understanding the affairs of the Dongfang Group for the past few days.

“It’s fine. My health has always been like this. How’s the investigation going? Also, what does this mean?”

Dongfang Shuman looked very upset. After taking a deep breath, she threw the newspaper in her hand in front of Ah Cai.

Ah Cai’s heart tightened. She quickly picked it up to take a look. The front page was about Dongfang Liuyun and her use of unspoken rules. Dongfang Shuman had been through a lot, she was not too anxious about the decline of Dongfang Group’s stock market because she was also very confident. She was now concerned about Qi Lei and Dongfang Liuyun.

“President Shu, this is actually very obvious. It’s just someone wanting to use the pressure of public opinion to reduce Fourth Miss’s spirit, but the way things have developed seems to be a little beyond our imagination. Should we...”

“Since it’s her own carelessness that caused it, then let her solve it herself. How’s the investigation going?”

A sharp glint flashed across Dongfang Shuman’s eyes as she said coldly.

“It’s already been investigated. This is Qi Lei’s information. Also, my intuition tells me that the defeat of the Lin Corporation might be related to Qi Lei. I sent people to the casino to investigate in secret and found that Qi Lei’s right-hand man, Wang Chun, had appeared near the casino. Of course, I didn’t find any evidence to prove it.”
