Chapter 1747. Injury (1)
Hearing this, Qi Lei did not continue. He turned to look at her and saw that she was propping up her slender fingers against her forehead. She was closing her eyes silently.
“She has very different philosophies from us. There’s no way to communicate with her. You’ll get used to it. All these years, only my father has been able to tolerate her. You don’t have to worry too much about her when you’re with me.”
As Dongfang Liuyun spoke, she brushed her long hair with her fingers and turned to look at him. “Don’t worry, I’m not that kind of blindly filial person. If I think it’s right, I’ll support it.”
“Your mother is also my mother. I have to thank her for bringing you into this world. Liuyun, many times, don’t let unnecessary conflicts exist. You can still cherish everything that you can now, unlike me, even if I wanted to cherish it, I don’t have that chance anymore.”
Qi Lei thought for a moment before saying this.
Dongfang Liuyun just chuckled, “I know what you mean, but you only know one part of it. Madam Song has never dared to admit to people outside that I’m her daughter, nor would she give me the halo of the Dongfang family’s Fourth Lady. I know that she wants to train me. But when you have to face too many difficulties alone, you’ll feel…”
“My mother had always wanted to protect me, but I know that I can’t always hide under their protection. The halo of the Qi family’s Second Master isn’t necessarily good for me. You know my situation very well,” said Qi Lei.
“Ms. Song suffered a lot in the early years. She felt that I should have her spirit, so she hoped that I could experience what she did. This is not something I can endure. Everyone has their own path to walk, and they have their own ways of mature thinking. My father always said that she’s actually very fragile. In my eyes, she’s a superwoman who could never fall.”
There was no meaning in that tone of voice.
