Chapter 1143 - Go After Dongfang Liuyun? (2)
When Yang Sheng saw that, he subconsciously stopped walking.
Qi Lei paused for a long while, before saying, “Next time, tell me less about her. Just reject everything.” His expression was apathetic. Then, he sighed and continued walking ahead.
A smile crossed Yang Sheng’s face, then he quickly went up to him. “Yes! Master Qi! I got it. I’ll pay attention to more of Miss Dongfang’s news! Oh, right, Master Qi, Miss Dongfang seems to frequent this library too. This library has a great collection. In fact, she studies archaeology and she really likes coming over to research ancient texts. She seemed to be looking into some recently discovered artifacts from the West as well. The research institute called her over for it…”
Yang Sheng paid close attention to Dongfang Liuyun, thus he knew all the news about her very well.
You could not blame him. When he was investigating Dongfang Liuyun, he felt that she was pretty marvelous. In fact, Master Qi seemed interested in her as well, thus he took the initiative to pay closer attention, hoping that some sort of fireworks would happen between the two of them. That way, CEO Wang, who had passed away, could be smiling from where she was!
Yang Sheng had journeyed alongside Wang Qin before this, so he was loyal to her. Wang Qin was his patron, and because of his gratitude, he was exceptionally meticulous with Qi Lei’s matters.
Yang Sheng was probably one of the very few people who truly cared for Qi Lei.
“The research institute called her over?” Qi Lei muttered and looked at Yang Sheng in surprise with a meaningful gaze, but he did not expose himself either. Was that she had been busy with recently?
Yang Sheng nodded. “Yes, Master Qi. I think the research institute is nearby too.”
“You do know a lot about her,” Qi Lei smiled faintly as he said.
“Master Qi, Miss Dongfang’s quite great and is so beautiful. She has a good family background too. All her criteria fit your standards. Don’t you feel some kind of way when you look at her?” Yang Sheng lowered his voice and said softly.
Qi Lei’s handsome brows raised and a devilish smile flashed across his face. “What? What feeling? What kind of way?”
“The kind of feeling when a man sees a woman…when you feel an increase secretion of hormones like an electric shock!”
“No good words are to be expected from a scoundrel! Do I look like a pervert without integrity to you? When have I ever not maintained a cool gentleman demeanor in front of women? Don’t look at me with such a vulgar look!”
“Master Qi, you keep going around calling her your wife. What integrity do you have?”
“That’s a game! Do you understand? Reality isn’t the same. To curry her favor, I even lost a few millions worth of equipment.”
“Master Qi, I think you and Miss Dongfang are quite compatible. She really is great. If the two of you could live together and go to work, then go home to play some games like DOTA or something at night, don’t you find that quite a good life? Aren’t you looking forward to it?” Yang Sheng smiled dazzlingly and fixed his gaze on Qi Lei.
“Are you saying I should go after Dongfang Liuyun?” Qi Lei squinted at Yang Sheng as he smiled softly.
“Don’t you like Miss Dongfang in that way?”
Qi Lei smiled but did not answer Yang Sheng’s question. Instead, he took out his car keys and tossed them to him. “Okay, I don’t want to think about this woman right now. Help me send my car for maintenance. I probably won’t be going out for the next two days, so I won’t need it. I’ll just go over myself.”
Then, before Yang Sheng could reply, he quickened his steps.
After a while, Yang Sheng shouted at Qi Lei’s back, “Master Qi, how are you going to go home?”
“The subway!” Qi Lei retorted, then his tall figure vanished in the shady lane into the woods ahead.
When he reached the library, the sky had already darkened and the lights in the library were bright.
There were quite a lot of people who usually frequented the library since there was a great collection of books. Recently, the city had been encouraging everyone to read, and there were many new additions to the library as well as donations. Of course, Qi Lei personally donated some materials too. The new storeroom for new books was already full.
It was dinner time, so there were not many people in the library. He swiped his card and passed through the front desk, took a bookmark, then went straight to the fourth floor where the new books were stored. What Qi Lei needed to refer to were located there. There was also a large study table that could be used to thumb through materials and take down notes. Qi Lei usually went straight to the fourth floor.
The fourth floor was naturally empty right now. Qi Lei went to the shelf on construction and planned to borrow a few books home to pass his time, yet just as he was taking a book off the shelf, he suddenly heard a cheerful voice.
“Teacher Dongfang! Teacher Dongfang! Is that really you?”
When Qi Lei heard that, he immediately spun to the source of the sound. What greeted his sight were two girls holding books in their arms. They looked innocent and were probably students from the university nearby. However, beyond those two students was a beautifully elegant woman!
Dressed in a black off-shoulder cotton dress while her long dark hair was casually tied into a lazy bun with a hairpin, her beautiful face was on full display. She also wore an exquisitely vintage jade bracelet on her slender wrist. She had a low-profile and was charged with an Eastern woman’s mysteriously beautiful charisma as if she had just walked out of a painting.
The two girls’ eyes were fixated on her as they smiled shyly at her. With such graceful mannerisms, who else could it be but Dongfang Liuyun?
She seemed to be researching something at the moment. The table was filled with books that were flipped open beside a notebook, a magnifying glass, and a pen…
When those two young girls called out to her, she slowly looked up to them. Upon seeing the two smiling girls, Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes were filled with puzzlement instead as she looked at them calmly.
“Teacher Dongfang! It’s really you! How glorious! I’m finally seeing you in person! We’re students from University A. The last time when you came to our school to do an academic lecture, I was there too. You gave such a great lecture, Teacher Dongfang. You’re amazing! I bought all your books on archaeology as well. Oh, I like you a lot! Teacher Dongfang, can you sign something for me?”
Those two girls were clearly quite excited and their eyes practically lit up as they stared at Dongfang Liuyun.
…
Qi Lei crossed his arms in amusement as he leisurely leaned against the shelf and quietly watched this scene before him.
Dongfang Liuyun’s reaction was quite calm. She was easygoing and gave an autograph to those two young girls.
