Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At six o’clock in the evening, Han Jinlei and Zhao Guoping gathered together.
“What’s going on with Li Zhen’s side? They’ve prepared so much evidence, but Meiguo still hasn’t decided. What the hell is going on?” Zhao Guoping said.
It had been more than 20 hours since Li Zhen was captured.
However, during this period of time, Li Zhen and Han Jinlei did not lose contact with him.
All of this was Shen Shuyi’s doing. Her goal was to get more useful evidence from Han Jinlei.
The more things she obtained, the higher her chances of winning.
“This is within my expectations.” Han Jinlei placed the cup back on the table and said.
“I’m guessing that Lin Yi is making a final struggle. After all, he’s not someone to be underestimated. Although we have evidence in our hands, we can’t kill him on the spot. We might have to wait for a while.”
“I’m just a little anxious. His company can be said to be at the forefront of the semiconductor industry. If we can seize it, we will have the final say in the future semiconductor field. No one can imagine how profitable it will be.”
“Don’t be anxious. Good things come to those who wait. The person who sanctioned him is Meiguo. He can’t avoid it. We just have to continue preparing evidence.”
“This day has finally come. We’ve sacrificed too much.”
Han Jinlei nodded, “Since things have come to this, I guess it should be over in a day or two. Lin Yi is about to exit the history books.”
It was past ten in the evening. Lin Yi was still at the Lingyun Group and had not gone home.
After work, Ji Qingyan arrived, along with Qi Xianzhao and He Yuanyuan.
On the coffee table in the office was also supper that he had just finished eating and had not had time to clean up.
“Boss, the various departments are almost ready. When do you plan to make a move?” He Yuanyuan asked.
“Don’t be anxious. I’m waiting for a notice. I think it’s about time.”
The few of them did not know who Lin Yi was waiting for, but they could vaguely guess that the person who their boss was waiting for must have a high status in Huaxia.
It might even affect the direction of this matter.
Buzz buzz buzz!
Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was a message from an unknown number. There were only two words on it.
“Take action!”
Lin Yi immediately guessed that this was Shen Shuyi’s way of preventing others from noticing.
Lin Yi wanted to laugh when he saw the message on his phone.
He felt that it was a little cruel.
In the past, when they watched movies, the big shots who dealt in contraband there were all smart. Now, it seemed that they had learned it from these big shots.
Lin Yi stood up and stretched. “Tell the various departments to start working!”
“Okay!”
With Lin Yi’s order, Qi Xianzhao and He Yuanyuan walked out of the office and prepared to arrange the next step.
The two of them were Lin Yi’s most trusted aides. Forget the huge risk involved, even if they were asked to die, they would do it as long as Lin Yi gave the order.
After the two of them left, only Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan were left in the office.
However, Ji Qingyan had also been busy with the matter at hand and did not want to miss anything.
She didn’t try to dissuade Lin Yi. This was a huge risk, and she wanted him to be careful.
Moreover, she was already used to his behavior.
No matter what happened, she would stand with Lin Yi.
Instead of persuading him, it was better to firmly support him.
And she had long been prepared to live a normal life with Lin Yi.
Hence, she had no qualms about this.
No matter what it was, she was not afraid.
“Stop reading. You’ve been reading it all night. Can your eyes really handle it?” Lin Yi said.
“It’s fine, it’s not a big problem,” said Ji Qingyan.
“I think the other party might use the fact that it is a monopoly to make an issue out of it, so we have to be more careful so that we don’t get caught.”
“It can’t be helped. It’s already developed to this point. There’s nothing we can do, but you don’t have to worry too much, because it’s completely out of our control,” Lin Yi said.
“If their case succeeds and leads to us being labeled a monopoly, at most, there will be some reprimands or penalties, but nothing too severe. If it doesn’t succeed, whether it is considered a monopoly or not, the ultimate outcome will be the same.”
Ji Qingyan rested her cheek on her hand. “You’re right.”
“Are you afraid that 1’11 lose?” Lin Yi asked with a smile.
“I’m not afraid.”
“You have so much confidence in me?”
“It’s not that I have confidence in you, but I’ve saved two billion yuan in the Swiss bank. It’s enough for us to live on for the rest of our lives. Even if you want to make a comeback, it’s enough. Therefore, I’m not afraid of any business in Zhonghai.”
“So you’ve got a backup plan. But I have a question.”
“What kind of problems?”
“With Chaoyang’s size, you shouldn’t be able to deposit 2 billion yuan in savings, right?”
“I only offered 300 million. The rest of the money was paid for by the Lingyun Group.”
“Huh? You took out so much money? Why didn’t I know?”
“Yuanyuan is amazing.”
“Don’t tell me you two are in cahoots.”
“I told her my thoughts before, and she wanted to test her ability to transfer assets and embezzle public funds.”
“It turns out that Yuanyuan is quite capable. She transferred 1.7 billion yuan without any mistakes. Do you want to consider giving her a raise?”
“Damn it, I want to kill her!”
Ji Qingyan rocked back and forth in laughter. “Don’t be so agitated. We were just playing around. Didn’t I tell you already? Anyway, this is our emergency fund. You can do whatever you want with Lingyun Group and Chaoyang Group, but don’t even think about touching a single cent of this two billion.”
“Yes, yes, yes, I won’t.” Lin Yi smiled. “With so much money, forget the two of us, it’s enough to support a nest of children.”
“Tsk, I’m going to give birth to a big fat boy. I’m not going to give birth to a nest.”
“What if the first child is a girl?”
“Then, let’s have a second child.” Ji Qingyan grinned.
“Actually, I’d rather have both a son and a daughter, but I prefer that the first child is an older brother, so he can protect the younger sister.”
“That’s a good idea. I’ll take off my pants.”
“Hooligan.”
Lin Yi gently hugged Ji Qingyan as he looked out the window at the myriad of lights outside. He felt that Ji Qingyan behind him, the future was still something to look forward to.
Creak…
At this moment, He Yuanyuan pushed open the door and entered. She was holding a stack of documents in her hand and was really flipping through them with her head lowered. She did not see the two of them hugging.
“Boss, the people below have all started, both domestically and internationally…”
He Yuanyuan stopped mid-sentence.
Because she realized that Lin Yi was looking at her in a bad way.
“You, why are you looking at me like that? Although I’m wearing a skirt today, there are safety pants under it. You can’t see anything.”
“Don’t you know what you’ve done?”
“Ah, this…”
He Yuanyuan stuttered and looked uneasy.
“I was upset a few days ago and went to the bar to have a drink with a young man. But how did you know about this?” He Yuanyuan said.
“But for the record, I took a cab home after drinking. I didn’t do any of that nonsense. I’m sorry about Gao.”
“What the f*ck, we suddenly got some unexpected gains?!”
Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan looked at each other. “This is getting interesting.”
“Hmm? What unexpected gains?”
He Yuanyuan was stunned. “F*ck, was that not what you’re talking about? Damn it, you fooled me.”
“Didn’t the two of us take out 1.7 billion previously? I told Lin Yi,” Ji Qingyan said resentfully.
“So that’s it.” He Yuanyuan heaved a sigh of relief and patted her chest.
“How is it, Boss? I took out 1.7 billion behind your back. I’m not bragging, but in the entire Huaxia, even in the entire world, not many people have my skills.”
“Then why don’t I give you a promotion and raise your salary?”
“There’s no need for that. I’m already quite satisfied with the CFO position. There’s no need for me to be on equal footing with Brother Qi.” He Yuanyuan coughed a few times. “However, I suddenly remembered that I have something else to do. I won’t talk to you anymore. I’ll leave first.”
“Get your *ss back here!”
Lin Yi cursed, “You took out 1.7 billion. I want to throw you off the building now.”
“Alright, alright. The two of you can stop quarreling.”
“I’m the one who made the decision. Are you going to throw me down? Seriously.”
“How is that possible? 1’11 only throw He Yuanyuan. You’re so thin that you’ll be blown away by the wind. You’re not like He Yuanyuan, who can smash a hole in the ground.”
“F*ck, I’m not that fat!”
“Alright, stop dawdling. Let’s get down to business,” Lin Yi said.
“How’s the deployment going? The trolls should have started working.”
“It’s exploding. The effect is better than we imagined.” He Yuanyuan said.
“Many people have taken the bait. The popularity on the Internet is also gradually rising. Some people even labeled them as traitors. I didn’t expect this. The complexity of the matter and the spread of the news have exceeded my imagination. The effect might be greater than we imagined.”
“At this point, it’s useless to think about anything else. Don’t worry and do it boldly. In any case, there’s no substantial evidence. As long as we can hide it from those onlookers, it’s fine.”
“Anyway, I’m not afraid of anything. Even if we lose, I still have our Old Gao. I can still live a good life.”
“From the looks of it, Old Qi is a little pitiful. He’s still alone.”
“I think Director Tian is a pretty good person. How about introducing her to Brother Qi?” Ji Qingyan suggested.
“If you want to find a partner for Brother Qi, it’s better not to do so at the main company,” He Yuanyuan said.
“Now, throughout Lingyun Group, from 40-year-old married women to recent master’s graduates in their 20s, anyone you bring forward in front of the boss act infatuated, like young girls experiencing their first love. Other men no longer catch their attention. So, when it comes to this matter, we need to target people outside the company.”
Ji Qingyan looked at Lin Yi suspiciously. “You’re quite popular in the company.”
“Naturally. If one day the boss cheats, I can guarantee that no woman will be spared.”
Ji Qingyan’s pretty face turned cold.
Lin Yi, “…”
F*ck!
“Don’t look at me. I don’t even come to the company a few times a month. This has nothing to do with me.”
“Tsk.”
Yanjing, Ministry Courtyard.
By midnight, most of the people had already fallen asleep.
Zhao Guoping was the same.
Ring ring ring!
A Huawei phone on the bedside table rang. It was extremely abrupt in the silent night.
However, no one picked up after it rang a few times until the call ended.
In less than a second, the phone rang again, but Zhao Guoping was still sleeping soundly.
Only the third time, Zhao Guoping suddenly sat up from the bed. His expression was ugly, and cold sweat had already seeped out of his forehead.
He had two phones. The one he usually used would turn on flight mode around 11 p.m. to prevent others from disturbing his rest. However, the other phone was always switched off. Only the people closest to him knew about it.
Only under extremely special circumstances would someone call this phone number and contact him.
Therefore, every time this phone rang, Zhao Guoping would be terrified and anxious.
Under normal circumstances, if something good happened, they would not reach him through this line. No one would be in such a hurry to contact him unless something bad happened.
Zhao Guoping hurriedly picked up his phone and realized that the person who called was his assistant. He calmed down before picking up the call.
“Director Zhao is in trouble. Meiguo didn’t punish Lin Yi. He has already returned to the country and is targeting us.”
The assistant’s voice was deafening, as if he might not be able to finish speaking if he didn’t hurry.
Zhao Guoping was stunned. It took him a long time to react.
“That’s impossible. We were so well-prepared. Besides, he’s committed such a huge crime. Meiguo wouldn’t let him off!”
“I don’t know what happened either, but he did come back. The news on the Internet is overwhelming. The Wang family and the Han family are also implicated. It has reached an uncontrollable level.”
“Send it to me. Hurry up.”
“Okay.”
The assistant hung up the phone and sent all the news online to Zhao Guoping.
Seeing the overwhelming surge of news, Zhao Guoping was dumbfounded.
It was early in the morning, but the traffic in Yanjing was still heavy.
A rich young master who was having fun every night brought his female companion to the hotel.
There were also people who left the nightclub and were going for their second round of partying.
The working class, who were still entitled to the ‘996’ work schedule, were exhaustedly driving back home.
Of course, there were also high-ranking officials and nobles who had just finished their social gathering and were on their way home. Han Jinlei and Fu Yahui were two of them.
The two of them had just finished eating with the Wang family and discussed Lin Yi’s situation together, preparing to carve up all the businesses under him.
“How’s the situation in Meiguo? Is there no verdict yet?” Fu Yahui looked at her watch. “It should be around one o’clock in Meiguo now.”
“Li Zhen said that everything went smoothly, but Lin Yi hasn’t given up yet. If it wasn’t for the Liang family supporting him, he would be finished now.”
“The Liang family is really in the way. Can’t they see the current situation? Shen Shuyi isn’t such a stupid person to go against our three families for Lin Yi’s sake.”
“Well, she and Qin Yingyue were old friends back then. Lin Yi is her son, so she’ll definitely do his best to help,” Han Jinlei said.
“But it’s useless. They have no chance of winning.”
“That’s true, but we can’t underestimate Lin Yi or Shen Shuyi.”
“Don’t worry, I’ve already contacted Li Zhen just now. He told me that Lin Yi is still struggling on the verge of death, but Meiguo is well prepared. Regardless of whether there’s a sufficient reason or evidence, they’ll arrest him. His Lingyun Group is finished. We ll just prepare to take over..”
