Chapter 1378. So-Called Love and Hate 6
In the fourth staff canteen, Dongfang Liuyun brought Qi Lei the dishes that she had ordered. Both sets were the same with equal portions of meat and vegetables.
Dongfang Liuyun was the kind of eater who needed meat. Besides that, she was a little picky and did not quite like strong-smelling foods. She liked some alcohol, but right now in this situation, she clearly could not order any.
Dongfang Liuyun handed Qi Lei a pair of chopsticks as she said, “I met Principal Xi and Chairman Mu a while back, and I heard about your situation briefly from them. I was abroad at that time, but since you’re fine, then there’s no need to bring up these unhappy things anymore.”
Qi Lei’s handsome brows raised as he accepted the chopsticks. Upon hearing her say that, he could not help but glance at her and whine a little unhappily, “Since you know about what happened to me, why didn’t you seem more stirred up earlier? I did just get a new lease of life after a harrowing encounter, so as a friend, shouldn’t you show your concern? Dongfang Liuyun, you really are the most heartless woman I’ve ever met!”
Dongfang Liuyun, who had picked up her food and was about to stuff in it her mouth, was stunned upon hearing his complaint. She looked up in surprise and stared at him. After a while, she smiled calmly. “It’s greatly fortunate that you’re fine. Even if I expressed any concern, it wouldn’t change anything, would it? Besides, do you think you’re such a delicate person?”
“Delicate? Did you just call me delicate?” Qi Lei frowned and squinted at her.
“You are more delicate than the typical person. Once you’ve experienced more of life and death, you’ll find that this was nothing. Once you go through some things, you’ll understand more. I think that your calamity this time might not have been a bad thing. At least, now that I look at you, you seem different from before. That’s what you’ve reaped,” she said. She thought about it, then put the drumstick on her plate into his. “This drumstick is to encourage you. Here you go.”
Second Master Qi could not help but feel defeated. Why was it that every time when he was with her, he would feel like he was a rookie in front of an experienced person?
“You always make it so logical. I wonder when I’ll be able get back at you,” Qi Lei grumbled.
