1245 Showdown! 4

It was rare to see Qi Lei being this aggressive.

Qi Qiming actually knew that he had been underestimating Qi Lei. Especially ever since Wang Qin passed away, his performance was way above average.

Qi Qiming thought it was a good thing. If Qi Feng and Qi Lei could work together, Qi Kai would surely reach new heights, but it was impossible for the two of them to work together.

It was just like Wang Qin and him!

He thought that if only he could have been more generous in the past, things might not have turned out like this!

He noticed that he liked to reminisce of the past as he got older. He realized that he regretted what he did. Perhaps he had been too strict with he. She had still been his woman after all. Only Wang Qin could call herself Qi Qiming’s woman, and naturally, Qi Lei was his son, so why did he fight with her until the bitter end?

What if…?

Unfortunately, one could not redo life.

Qi Qiming suddenly turned quiet and his cold eyes darkened as well. “Qi Kai is your mother’s work as well. I don’t want to see Qi Kai fall like this.”

“How can you be so sure that Qi Kai will fall if I take charge? If you already have this bias from the very beginning, it’ll be pointless no matter what I do,” Qi Lei said calmly with an expressionless face.

Qi Qiming was stunned for a moment before answering, “You have a bias against Qi Feng too, don’t you? Must the two of you really go against each other?”

Although he knew the brothers were not on good terms, Qi Qiming thought…

“You should ask Qi Feng about that! You knew what Qi Feng did to me, but you act like you didn’t see anything. I suppose I’m dispensable to you. Do you think a father like you deserves my gratitude?” Qi Lei put on a cold smile as he pointed at the documents before Qi Qiming. “If I don’t do this, you know very well what will happen to me once Qi Feng takes over your position. I’ll probably be transferred externally or get into an ugly dogfight like my mother and you. Who knows if I might die of an odd incident like my mother?”

“That’s enough, Qi Lei! Qi Feng wouldn’t do that. I can assure you that no one will challenge your position in the company with me being around, but Qi Feng is more suitable to be Qi Kai’s CEO than you are. Aside from that, I can fulfill any conditions you want. Give up on working with the outsiders and cooperate with your brother!” Qi Qiming grabbed onto the teacup tightly as he stared straight at Qi Lei.

“What if I insist on the CEO position? Didn’t you say that Qi Feng doesn’t care? I care about that. Why don’t you tell him to quit and let me handle it? He can be the tactician and work under me since that’s what he’s supposed to be. Who says that I don’t care about power and fame? I care! I care about them a lot! Why are you trying to stop me from putting in effort when you can’t give me what I want? Those things belong to my mother, so what’s wrong with me taking those back? If you think that you’re not in the wrong, then shut up and learn to ignore it!”

“That’s enough! You’re unbelievable. Don’t forget that I’m your biological father! Why can’t you speak nicely for once?” Qi Qiming coughed several times.

However, Qi Lei did not seem to bother. He let out a cold laugh and enjoyed his tea leisurely.

“Just when did you band together with Mu Yuchen? Why would he hand Chenye Movies and Television to you? Did you promise him something? What does he want you to do?” Qi Qiming asked.

“That’s none of your business.”

“You’re trying to go against Qi Kai by working with him, aren’t you?”

“If you don’t try to fight him, I can guarantee with my life that he won’t do anything against you.”

Qi Qiming’s eyes darkened. “But he’s the one that caused that accident! Your brother Qi Feng turned out like this because of him.”

“Because of Mu Yuchen? Do you think he’d have done that if Qi Feng and Gu Lingsha didn’t do what they did? Has he ever bothered any of you? I once thought it was actually his fault, but after I found out what exactly happened, I realized that wasn’t the full truth.”

Qi Lei took a deep breath. “I thought about staying in Qi Kai for a while longer, but it seems like it’s not my place to be anymore. If you’re unhappy, you can just fire me tomorrow.” His tone of voice was calm and cold, and Qi Qiming did not like it.

It took Qi Qiming some time to find back his voice again. “So, you’ve decided to betray Qi Kai for real and band together with Mu Yuchen?”

“Where is the betrayal when I’ve never sworn loyalty? Do you even understand how betrayal works? Moreover, I’m not working under Mu Yuchen. We’re working together. Don’t assume everyone just wants to be like your dear son.’

“Qi Lei, you watch your mouth!” Qi Qiming stood up with a stormy expression.

“You heard what I said. Do you need any further explanation?” Qi Lei’s expression remained unchanged as he stood up as well and glared at Qi Qiming.

“Do you really have to go this far? You and Qi Feng are brothers!”

“You were my mother’s husband. Were you ever kind to her?”
