Chapter 2091: Son or Daughter? (2)

After hesitating for a long time, Lan Xiu finally looked up at her.

His eyes were filled with complicated emotions, and in an instant, his eyes returned to their usual silence.

He took a deep breath and swallowed the wine in his mouth. He drank it quickly and coughed twice. He lowered his eyes, not knowing what he could say to her.

He had always known how intelligent the woman in front of him was. For so long, she had also known about Dongfang Liuyun’s existence, but she had never taken the initiative to mention it. However, he had mentioned it several times before, Leng Xinran did not ask any further.

“I don’t mean anything. After all, everyone has a past, and you know my past clearly. I don’t want to interfere with your feelings too much, so don’t feel unhappy.”

Seeing that he did not respond for a long time, Leng Xinran smiled without saying anything else.

“No, Xinran. I don’t mean to blame you. I don’t want to explain too much about Liuyun, but she and I didn’t have a beginning, so there’s no past. Our relationship is very simple. We’re friends who can speak their minds, and she treats me as her elder brother. The reason why I, Lan Xiu, am where I am today is largely because of her. Otherwise, many years ago, I would have been utterly defeated…”

That was how Lan Xiu explained it. He was the only one who knew how he felt about Dongfang Liuyun. However, that was all in the past. She was living a very happy life now, and only Qi Lei could truly make her happy. Thus, he was satisfied.

In this world, not everyone who liked someone could have it. It was also not that people who did not like each other could not be happy. He, Lan Xiu, was one of these people. He did not feel sad or sad. After all, the heavens did not grant you such a fate, did they?

He quietly looked at the woman in front of him with a calm expression. “So, please don’t…”

“I said, I didn’t mean anything else. You don’t have to explain. I believe in your friendship.”

Leng Xinran interrupted him at the right time and toasted him. “I think that she should be a good person too. Qin Su told me about her.”

Qin Su?

She almost forgot that Qin Su was Zhou Zimo’s wife. Qi Lei and Zhou Zimo were also very familiar with each other, so Qin Su should be in frequent contact with Dongfang Liuyun, so she naturally knew some things.

“Alright, let’s eat first.”

Leng Xinran did not want to continue this topic. After saying this, she lowered her head and went to eat.

Seeing this, Lan Xiu did not say anything more. He glanced at her and silently lowered his head as well.

…

Leng Xinran’s room was next to Lan Xiu’s. It was the same room that she had stayed in before. Lan Xiu had already renovated it according to the style that she liked. Naturally, Leng Xinran was very satisfied with Lan Xiu’s attentiveness.

Days passed quickly. Leng Xinran was rather used to staying here. She had already given up on the previous two jobs. Now, she was focused on taking over the Leng Group.

Leng Mingyi’s condition was sometimes good and sometimes bad. Leng Xinran had even more reason to send Ye Xiaolian to take care of Leng Mingyi.

Leng Mingyi naturally knew what Leng Xinran was thinking. Ye Xiaolian also complained about Leng Xinran’s ruthlessness in Leng Mingyi’s ears, but Leng Mingyi did not pay any attention to her.

Because Leng Mingyi was very clear about his daughter’s indifference. After so many years, she probably still hated him to the bone, right?

She did not even want to talk to him anymore. Other than those necessary business matters, she did not want to say anything more to him, like right now.

“The proposal that you discussed with Leia Company is already out. I have some doubts about the data. In the next two days, I will hold a high-level meeting of the company to specifically discuss the problems of this proposal and the potential for cooperation.”

On the sofa in the hall of the Leng residence, Leng Xinran said to Leng Mingyi meticulously.

“We agreed to this proposal before. How can we change it just like that? Where is the credibility of this enterprise?”

Before Leng Mingyi could say anything, Ye Xiaolian’s voice was heard. It was not difficult to hear the anger in her tone.

Leia Company was a distant relative of Ye Xiaolian. In order to achieve this cooperation, they had put in a lot of effort to Ye Xiaolian. Of course, they had also given Ye Xiaolian a lot of benefits. She had also swayed Leng Mingyi a lot with pillow talk, only then did Leng Mingyi decide to take a look at the proposal.

“When did we agree? At that time, we only said to take a look at Leia’s proposal. You seem so nervous, does that mean that you have a guilty conscience?”

Leng Xinran glanced at Ye Xiaolian coldly and did not hold back.

“What kind of attitude is this?! I’m also thinking about the company’s reputation. Back then, your father also said that we can cooperate! Isn’t that right?!”

Ye Xiaolian was naturally very nervous in her heart. Leng Xinran had always been at odds with her, and recently, she had been suppressing Ye Xiaolian’s power in the company. Now, Ye Xiaolian’s lackeys in the Leng Group were almost all cut off by her.

“What are you nervous about? Didn’t I say that I couldn’t? Now, I’m going to let the higher-ups carefully review the proposal and see how it can be implemented. If the proposal made by Leia can really pass the test, I won’t forget to consider the matter of cooperation,” Leng Xinran said indifferently.

Her face was expressionless, but her gaze fell on Leng Mingyi indifferently. Obviously, she was looking at Leng Mingyi’s reaction.

“You… you… Leia is also a veteran company, so there is naturally no problem with the proposal! You’re doing this just to target me. Who doesn’t know that you’ve been displeased with me all these years?”

As Ye Xiaolian spoke, her face turned a little green.

“Whatever you say. For the sake of prudence, I feel that there is a need to re-examine it, this is to be responsible to the company. Do you think that I shouldn’t do this? Or is it because you think that because Leia has a relationship with you, you can be special?”

Leng Xinran’s expression was abnormally indifferent. As she spoke, she did not wish to continue arguing with Ye Xiaolian. After thinking for a moment, she stood up coldly, “You should carefully consider what I said. The company has been operating like this for so many years, and there’s been many malpractice left behind. It must be rectified. Leia Company’s proposal must be re-examined.”

“You make the decision. The company is now under your management. I don’t have so many thoughts. I’m relieved to leave it to you.”

Leng Mingyi, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke in a low voice.

“Mingyi! How can you do this! Didn’t you say that there was no problem with Leia before? How can you go back on your words now?”

When Leng Ming Yi said this, Ye Xiaolian started to panic!
