MY LOVING MARRIAGE - Season 21 Episode 6

When she saw Dongfang Xue, she was in the backyard of the Dongfang old residence.

When Dongfang Liuyun had just turned the corner of the corridor, she saw a white figure in front of her from afar.

Dongfang Xue was just like her name. She loved white. She was in her forties, but she looked very well maintained. She looked like she was only in her thirties. She looked very energetic, as if she had matured over the years, her appearance was quite similar to Dongfang Shuman’s when she was young. She was a capable beauty.

At this moment, she was wearing a white professional dress with a beige coat over it. Her chestnut-colored hair had just reached her shoulders, and she looked very clean and neat.

When Dongfang Liuyun walked over, she was half-squatting in a dark corner, fiddling with a few hanging orchids. When she heard footsteps behind her, she did not stop what she was doing. Instead, a mellow and gentle voice was heard—

“Have you gone to see your grandmother?”

It was obvious that she already knew who the person behind her was, as Dongfang Xue asked.

Dongfang Liuyun stopped walking and stood quietly. He replied calmly, “Yes, she said that we should catch up, so she chased me here.”

When she heard that, Dongfang Xue straightened her back slightly. She turned her gaze and glanced at Dongfang Liuyun. “I heard that you’re married. Where’s your man? Aren’t you going to bring him back for me to meet?”

“He has some business to attend to. There will be plenty of time in the future. When he comes back, I will naturally bring him back to serve tea to aunt,” Dongfang Liuyun replied straightforwardly.

Dongfang Xue smiled indifferently and retracted her gaze unhurriedly. From the corner of her eyes, she shot Dongfang Liuyun a meaningful glance, “I can tell that you have been living quite comfortably these days. You look much better than before. You don’t look as lifeless as you did.”

“Aunt is also living quite well. You looks much younger than before, I’m sure you handled things quite easily over there,” Dongfang Liuyun replied nonchalantly.

Dongfang Xue chuckled, “Even your words are much more vivid than before. However, I don’t have such a good life. I’ve always been so busy.”

Dongfang Liuyun casually smiled, “However, I’ve always admired aunt’s free and easy attitude. Even grandfather has said that you live more comfortably than the other uncles and my father. If the daughter of the Dongfang family is said to have a good life, then it’s also a good life. If it’s not good, then it’s not good, is it?”

“I heard that your grandmother wants me to stay in the headquarters in the future. What kind of position do you and your father plan to arrange for me?”

Dongfang Xue was also a person who hit the nail on the head. She had long known about these rumors, “Is it because your father doesn’t trust me to stay outside, so he plans to transfer me back? He might feel more at ease with me right under his nose. Or, does he want me to come back and help you shoulder some pressure. After all, your current situation isn’t great either?”

Hearing this, Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes darkened, but there was no change in her expression.

“It’s not up to me to decide whether aunt stays or goes. Grandmother did mention this to me before, but Aunt is after all a pillar of the company. Of course, it’s not up to me to decide. I think Grandmother will be more wise and farsighted. Aunt can ask Grandmother. We will accept her arrangements.”

Dongfang Liuyun had received Dongfang Shuman’s hint before. Her words startled Dongfang Xue. She looked at Dongfang Liuyun with a deep gaze that seemed to be scrutinizing her, “Is that so? I thought your grandmother would ask you for advice on which position to place me in.”

“The one who controls the company is not me or my father, but Grandmother and the entire group of shareholders. I think aunt should be the most clear on this point, right?”

Dongfang Liuyun naturally could not let Dongfang Xue get a hold of anything. She did not really understand Dongfang Xue’s attitude. Sometimes, she felt that she was very ambitious, but sometimes, she was very sincere in fighting for the best interests of Dongfang Gan.

Dongfang Gan and Dongfang Xue had a good relationship. Sometimes, they were very harmonious, but sometimes, Dongfang Xue was…

“If it were you, which department would you place me in?”

Dongfang Xue seemed to be very insistent on Dongfang Liuyun’s opinion.

“What position does aunt want the company to place you in then?” Dongfang Liuyun asked back.

She did not expect Dongfang Liuyun to ask so boldly. Dongfang Xue paused for a moment and thought about it seriously, “What if I wish to be like your First Uncle and Second Uncle?”

“There are only so many positions in the company. If Aunt thinks that First Uncle and Second Uncle would voluntarily give up their positions, I think that Grandmother and the others will definitely not hesitate to fulfill Aunt’s request.”

After Dongfang Liuyun said these words, Dongfang Xue laughed lightly. She then straightened her body and looked at Dongfang Liuyun quietly, “This kind of trick of kicking the ball around was something that only your father would do. I did not expect that you would receive some of his true teachings not long after following him around. The Dongfang clan’s matters were originally a pool of muddy water. Since you yearned for freedom, why did you get involved? Could it be that after being outside for a long time, you’ve also been tainted by these secular auras?”

“I’ve never said that I’m not a secular person.”

“Is that so? How do you perceive me?” Dongfang Xue asked.

“Aunt is family, and we’re on the same side. Does Aunt feel that way?”

Dongfang Liuyun’s tone was very certain when she said this. Her starry eyes were also staring intently at Dongfang Xue.

At this moment, Dongfang Xue finally chuckled and nodded. “The relationship between the Dongfang family is very complicated. Since you have chosen to walk on this path, you should be more careful and take care of yourself.”

“Thank you for your advice, Aunt,” Dongfang Liuyun replied very politely.

Dongfang Xue waved her hand and walked towards the corridor ahead. Dongfang Liuyun followed behind her silently.

“What would you choose in the face of family ties and benefits?”

As Dongfang Xue walked, her voice quietly brushed past Dongfang Liuyun’s ears.

“Before answering this question, I would like to ask aunt a question,” said Dongfang Liuyun.

“Tell me about it,” Dongfang Xue answered with her hands behind her back.

“Is Aunt satisfied with the current situation?”

“Oh? With the current situation? I’m very satisfied. Why wouldn’t I be satisfied?”

Dongfang Xue glanced at Dongfang Liuyun in surprise. Seeing the deep look in Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes, she smiled. “Are you using my question to brush me off?”

“No, I just want to know if Aunt is like me and feels that family ties are more important. There are some things that cannot be brought along, so I will always choose family ties. It’s just that there are some responsibilities that one must bear,” Dongfang Liuyun lamented.

“Is that what you think?” Dongfang Xue asked.
