Chapter 1422 Joy and Sorrow (Part 2)

"How did you come?"

In the desolate evening breeze, her faint voice came.

"I passed by here and came to take a look. I closed the door and thought you hadn't come back yet."

Qi Lei also responded calmly.

Dongfang Liuyun also walked up, taking out the key from the pocket of his windbreaker and opening the door, "I went to Xinjiang and stayed there for several days."

"It should be very cold over there at this time."

Qi Lei followed and walked in. Looking at her figure, he felt that she seemed to have lost weight again, her face looked a little pale, and it was not difficult to catch a hint of fatigue in her starry eyes.

"It's snowing over there right now, otherwise I wouldn't be able to come back so quickly."

She said, pushed open the door, put the keys in her pocket, put the black backpack on her shoulders on the counter next to her, turned around and walked out, and took a few strides to the trunk of the car. , opened it, and came down carrying a black duffel bag. It seemed heavy, and it seemed a little difficult for her to carry it.

Qi Lei looked at it, followed it with a few strides, and reached out to take it.

Dongfang Liuyun did not refuse, "It's a bit heavy, so be careful."

"I have been to the underground city holy land. The terrain there is quite complex. It would be difficult for me to pass through it alone. I can barely deal with that guardian even if I am fully armored, not to mention the guardian beast. ”

Qi Lei carried the duffel bag quite easily while talking to Dongfang Liuyun.

"Did you get the map of the Holy Land? You dared to go in before the map fragments were put together. You are very brave."

Dongfang Liuyun smiled calmly, "I haven't had time to go online recently. The newly upgraded system in the service area should be pretty good. Let's go up and have a look in two days. I have to take a rest these two days."

"You're quite hardworking too."

Qi Lei glanced at her sideways and said in a low voice.

"An investigation group in Xinjiang discovered a group of tombs in the desert. There might be something of interest to me, so I went there to have a look. I didn't want to catch up with the weather. I spent a few days in the desert and saw that in a short time There was no way to conduct a normal inspection, so I came back and waited for the weather to be warmer after the new year to go and have a look."

Dongfang Liuyun rarely took the initiative to talk about these things to anyone, but today when he saw Qi Lei waiting here, he was in a good mood, so he simply said a few words.

"What about you? I heard that we are preparing a new company? When do you plan to open it?"

Dongfang Liuyun also knew something about Qi Lei from Yang Sheng before, so Dongfang Liuyun asked——

Qi Lei never took the initiative to talk to anyone about work. He and Dongfang Liuyun felt like friends who had known each other for many years. When they got together, they usually just drank and chatted, or talked about some interests. thing, but it feels pretty good.

"I've always wanted to send you an invitation, and it just so happens that it's the Lantern Festival on the 15th day of the new year. Will you come?"

Putting the duffel bag on the shelf aside, Qi Lei took out a red invitation letter from his coat pocket and handed it to Dongfang Liuyun.

Dongfang Liuyun stopped very quickly, lightly scanned the invitation letter in front of him, raised his eyes slightly, glanced sideways at Qi Lei, stretched out his white and slender fingertips, took it, and opened it leisurely Take a look.

After a moment, she closed the invitation and smiled lightly, "Congratulations."

"I would be happier if I were there to congratulate you."

Qi Lei also smiled and looked at the sky outside, then continued, "Take some time to clean up and find a place to have dinner. Just treat it as a welcome relief for you."

"There's no need to pick up the wind and wash the dust. Just find a place to have something to eat. The library is closed tomorrow, so I'll rush over to find some reference books."

"It's not easy for you either."

"Just get used to it, be busy and feel fulfilled."

"Not everyone has your professionalism and state of mind?"

Qi Lei thought for a while and replied.

Dongfang Liuyun raised his eyebrows, narrowed his eyes meaningfully, and smiled, "For example, you?"

As he said that, he also rolled up the bead curtain and walked inside.

"I am also a hard-working young man."

Qi Lei touched his nose, explained evilly, and followed him.

Dongfang Liuyun's thin figure walked through the long corridor. He took off his windbreaker and threw it into the lounge chair next to him. Qi Lei, who was following behind, discovered that there was actually another room in Debao Zhai. Standing at the door, looking at the big kitchen, there is nothing missing in the clean and tidy kitchen. The various knives and kitchen utensils on the opposite shelf are very complete. In this posture, even the full set of kitchen utensils he just bought at home is also complete. It may not be as complete as here.

"A man of thirty, do you think you are still a young man? Don't go out. There are only noodles here. If you don't mind, you can stay and make do with me. Otherwise, turn right when you go out and there is a nice restaurant about a hundred meters ahead."

Dongfang Liuyun said that he had already pulled his long hair into a beautiful bun, untied his cufflinks, washed his hands and started to get busy.

Qi Lei raised his handsome eyebrows, and of course he would not miss this opportunity, so he volunteered to help, but Dongfang Liuyun sent him outside to close the door...

…

It is also in the evening, and the maple house is illuminated by the soft light of dusk.

"Master, Master Su and Master Mo are here."

When Mu Yuchen was going downstairs to get busy in the kitchen making dinner, Sister Wang suddenly came over to inform him.

Hearing this, Mu Yuchen was surprised. He unbuttoned his cufflinks leisurely, rolled up his sleeves, and asked after a moment, "Is there any good food at home?"

"The young lady said that some of the dishes were a bit boring, so I just cleaned the refrigerator. I thought I would go home tonight and buy some fresh and good dishes when I come back tomorrow morning."

Sister Wang replied.

"It's okay, you can rest as usual."

Mu Yuchen saw that Sister Wang had packed up and was about to go home, so he replied, turned around and went upstairs, shouting -

"Xia Ye, come down for a moment."

Sister Wang looked at them and smiled. She didn't want to disturb them, so she quietly left.

Xi Xiaye was watching cartoons with Mu Zirui at the moment. When she heard her husband's shout, she got up and went out.

"What's wrong?"

As soon as I walked to the door, I saw the man already standing at the door.

"Su Chen and Zimo are here. Needless to say, they must be here for a meal. You go to the supermarket to buy some vegetables. You can watch what you like. Remember to pick a new drawing board for Xiao Rui."

Xi Xiaye raised her eyebrows as she listened, and then stretched out her hand towards Mu Yuchen.

Mr. Mu glanced at her and scolded with a low smile, "Lazy!"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he also touched his pocket and quickly took out a black wallet and handed it to her.

Miss Xia Ye quickly took it and turned to follow Mu Zirui who was still watching TV inside and said, "Son, go shopping with mom -"
