However, he did not think too deeply into it. Seeing that Song Siting had already started to give in, he naturally would not reject her good intentions!
After thinking for a while, he replied—
“Mother, don’t worry too much. Father often goes on business trips, so he definitely knows how to take care of himself. Liuyun has been troubled by many things these past few days and is also a little tired. She hasn’t been able to rest well these past few days. I also hope that she can rest well for a day or two. She’s been busy these past few days, she didn’t co to visit Mother but actually she misses you.”
Qi Lei’s words were very polite. As Song Siting listened, she naturally knew. She was afraid that Qi Lei knew that she was not very satisfied with him back then. After thinking about it for a while, he sighed softly, “Qi Lei, I didn’t an to make things difficult for you. I know that you treat Liuyun very well. As a mother, everyone wants their child to live a better life. Previously, I might not have understood you very well. Plus, the news of your marriage was so sudden. I couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy. I was also worried about Liuyun...”
Song Siting saw what Qi Lei had done during this period of ti. Even though she felt a knot in her heart, she did not harbor too much dissatisfaction toward Qi Lei.
“Mother, you don’t have to explain this to . I understand the hearts of all parents.”
Qi Lei cut off Song Siting’s words. He lowered his head and took a sip of tea as if he was lanting, “I understand very well. My mother treated the sa before. Actually, mother is doing all of this for Liuyun for her sake. When my mother was still around, she treated the sa, but I always went against her wishes and refused to listen to her. She always felt that there was no way for us to reach a consensus on many things, so I always did as I pleased. I knew that she was doing them for my own good, but also...
“It was only after she left that I realized so things. I regret not being close to her at that ti, or else...”
Qi Lei did not continue.
Song Siting sighed slightly
“I’ve heard about your mother, Wang Qin. We’ve t before. Back then, your father had so dealings with the Wang family. If it weren’t for the complicated things that happened later, our families would probably be on good terms now. It’s a pity... your mother is also a very smart person. I’ve always respected her. Now that she’s gone, you don’t have to be too sad. We’ll treat you like our child.”
“If that’s the case, then thank you, Mother.”
Qi Lei thanked her.
Song Siting smiled, but there was a hint of worry and disappointnt in her smile. However, if she did not want to say anything, Qi Lei would not ask.
“It’s late autumn, and the cool breeze is chilly. It’s cold outside, and Mother is recovering, it’s not appropriate for you to be too tired. It’s better to go back in and sit down. I’ll call Liuyun again and ask her to co ho sooner.”
“Sure, let’s go back. This year’s autumn doesn’t seem as cold as it used to be, the feeling of autumn in this courtyard doesn’t seem as dense as it used to be, but it looks pretty bleak.”
As Song Siting said this, she let Qi Lei help her up.
“Wait for the weather to be better in a few days. I’ll ask them to plant fewer plum blossoms. Although it’s quite cold now, looking at the weather, they should be able to survive with good food. They’re all plum trees that have been transplanted for a few years. They’ll bloom in winter.”
Qi Lei glanced at the courtyard in front of him as he said this.
Hearing this, Song Siting paused for a mont before nodding. She did not refuse—
“Alright, I’ll have to trouble you then.”
...
Dongfang Liuyun was naturally a little surprised when she received Qi Lei’s call. However, it was just about ti to get off work at that ti. Dongfang Liuyun packed up briefly before rushing straight to the Tanshan Villa area.
When she arrived at the Tanshan Villa area, the sky had already fallen silent. The sky was still very dark. It looked like it was going to rain.
It was the rainy season right now. Autumn rains fell one after another, and the weather beca colder and colder. As they bathed in the cold autumn rain, the entire world seed to have an additional sense of desolation.
When Dongfang Liuyun walked into the house, she could feel that her shoulders were a little wet.
“Miss is back!”
The butler soon noticed Dongfang Liuyun walking in.
Dongfang Liuyun nodded and walked in as well.
In the living room, Song Siting was reading so newspapers. When she heard footsteps, she turned to look.
“Mother!”
Dongfang Liuyun took off her coat and looked around. She did not see anyone familiar, so she asked directly, “Where’s Qi Lei?”
“Why? Are you worried that I’ll make things difficult for him? Aren’t you going to tell what happened at the company today?”
Song Siting looked at Dongfang Liuyun’s cold expression and felt uncomfortable. She took a deep breath and spoke.
Dongfang Liuyun frowned slightly and glanced at her calmly. “If you’re really making things difficult for him, what’s the point of worrying? You don’t participate much in the company’s matters, do you? Also, I don’t quite understand what you an by asking this.”
The mont Dongfang Liuyun said this, Song Siting’s expression imdiately changed.
“I don’t want to quarrel with you today. The reason I’m asking is because I care about you! Lin Yuanyuan fell, and you went up. This is sothing to be happy about. She has been unconvinced for so many years. She even resents for not caring about our kinship and accepting that case, letting her brother commit suicide. I know that I have a clear conscience about this matter, but she’s been targeting all these years, even your grandmother...”
“I don’t want to hear about your old matters. That’s your business and has nothing to do with . I only hope that Mother can think more about and Father when you’re doing things! You could have handed the case to soone else back then, but you just had to take it on. Are you trying to use this matter to show off your power as the great Lawyer Song?”
When Dongfang Liuyun said this, a cold smile flashed across her lips.
“You know, I didn’t want to bring these things up, but Mother, you always wanted to win. Then, yes, you did the right thing! You are the honest and upright Lawyer Song, I admire you very much. You did the right thing, and very well! Are you satisfied with this?”
“Liuyun...”
“Mother, Grandmother is right. You’re good at everything, but you’re too self-righteous. You think that you’re the great Lawyer Song, so you’re right to do many things according to your wishes, right?”
“I didn’t say that. Why do you always misinterpret my intentions and insist on coming to a dead end?”
“I’m not the one who’s leading us to a dead end, it’s you!”
