Chapter 1483: Meeting An Ning Again
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“What’s going on?” Li Sijin was stunned. “Why is there a man beside Sister An Ning?”
An Ning could hang out with people of the opposite sex.
It was possible that colleagues from the same department would hitch a ride and come to work together.
Perhaps it was a male relative in the family. However, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the two of them did not seem to have such a relationship.
They were more like a couple.
At this moment, An Ning also saw Lin Yi and Li Sijin.
Her expression instantly became flustered and uneasy. She said goodbye to the man with glasses beside her and rushed into the office building.
The man beside her also noticed the change in An Ning. He subconsciously looked at Lin Yi and sized him up.
However, he did not say anything. A few seconds later, he got into his car and left.
“Brother Lin, could that man be Sister An Ning’s new boyfriend?”
“That should be the case.” Lin Yi said.
“When a man is older, he should get married. When a woman is older, she should get married. Isn’t that normal?”
“That’s true, but I have a feeling…”
Li Sijin was simple and honest, but she was still very smart.
After interacting with her for such a long time, she could tell that An Ning liked Lin Yi.
Now that there was suddenly a man of the opposite sex around her, she could not accept it.
“No wonder Sister An Ning didn’t come to look for you the past few days. It turns out that she has a new boyfriend,” Li Sijin said with a pout.
“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. Let’s go in and get down to business first.”
“Okay.”
The two of them walked into the agricultural research institute and arrived at Chen Shi’s office.
The three of them chatted for more than half an hour about the study trip.
Li Sijin even prepared a small gift for Chen Shi.
However, this was just the icing on the cake. Liang Ruoxu would arrange the real benefits.
“Director Lin, did you have a conflict with An Ning these few days?”
“Huh? Why are you asking about this?” Lin Yi smiled.
“Director Chen, you’re a little gossipy.”
“She’s the granddaughter of my comrade-in-arms, and she’s like my granddaughter.” Chen Shi said.
“Since the day before, there has been a man who has been picking her up from work every day. 1 feel that something is wrong.”
“It’s a private matter. It’s not my place to pry.”
“You’re right.” Chen Shi smiled and said, “Then 1 won’t worry about you guys anymore.”
After finishing their discussion, it was already noon. Chen Shi planned a meal for them.
Initially, they wanted to invite An Ning to join them, but she found an excuse to reject them. After that, the three of them had lunch together before going about their own business.
In the afternoon, because Li Sijin still had to deal with Dongsan County’s matters, she stayed in the hospital. Lin Yi returned to the hospital alone.
That night, around six o’clock, Li Sijin bought dinner as promised and sent it to Lin Yi.
“Brother Lin, Brother Lin, 1 asked around this afternoon and made a major discovery.”
Li Sijin said sneakily, not even bothering to eat the steaming hot Malatang in her hand.
“What did you find? You’re acting like it’s so shocking.”
“In the afternoon, 1 asked a few sisters in the hospital about the man who picked Sister An Ning up. He really seems to be her boyfriend.”
“Wasn’t that obvious? What’s there to ask?”
“This is nothing. The main thing is that the man’s family seems to be quite rich.”
“Is he richer than me?”
“How is that possible?” Li Sijin said.
“My statement was a little off. It’s just that their families seem to be filled with government officials, especially that man’s father. It’s said that he’s the head of a certain department. He even promised that after their relationship is settled, he’ll transfer Sister An Ning away so that she can stop working here.”
“Well, that’s quite impressive. Those are some interesting connections.”
“Don’t you have any thoughts about this at all?”
“Huh? What am I supposed to think? It’s not like I don’t have a girlfriend.”
Li Sijin pursed her lips. She still felt a little regretful about this matter.
“Actually, I think Sister An Ning seems to like you, but she feels like a relationship between you guys is impossible. Hence, she hurriedly found a boyfriend and tried to forget about you in this way.”
“Have you watched too many dramas? That’s quite a plot.”
“You don’t understand women. I think that’s what Sister An Ning thinks. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have changed attitude so drastically and ignored you,” Li Sijin said.
“In normal circumstances, if she didn’t have anything to hide, considering how good our relationship is, she would have let us know that she was in a new relationship.”
“You should focus on your work. Don’t worry about this.” Lin Yi said.
“Do you want her to be my mistress? Are you interested as well? 1 can save a seat for you.”
“Oh, Brother Lin, don’t make fun of me.” Li Sijin said.
“I just feel that it’s a pity since Sister An Ning likes you.”
“Alright, let’s eat. Let’s not talk about this anymore,” Lin Yi said.
“Tomorrow morning at nine o’clock. Don’t forget to come to the meeting with me.”
“Got it, Brother Lin.”
Li Sijin agreed and happily ate her spicy hotpot.
That night, Li Sijin still slept at Lin Yi’s place. However, she was very smart and brought a pair of loose-fitting pajamas. Otherwise, she would find it uncomfortable to sleep in.
The next morning, the two of them went for breakfast just like the day before.
The meeting was held at the International Conference Center in Bingcheng. When the two of them arrived, they realized that this place was already under martial law. No foreign cars were allowed to enter.
Lin Yi looked around and saw that people from the various departments had come. This meeting could be said to be quite high-profile.
“Brother Lin, I don’t think it’s appropriate for us to attend this meeting,” Li Sijin said nervously.
“Don’t worry. Their boss invited me here. Otherwise, do you think I would have randomly come to join in the fun?”
“Oh, 1 get it now that you say that.”
“Let’s go in and take a look.”
“Okay.”
After handing in their passes, the two of them walked toward the conference center.
Li Sijin looked left and right. This was the first time she had come to such a dignified place. Instantly, she felt the difference in status.
“Don’t act like a thief. Stand up straight.”
“Got it, Brother Lin.”
Following the instructions, the two of them walked towards the meeting hall.
But after taking a few steps, Li Sijin suddenly stopped in her tracks.
“Why did you stop?”
“Brother Lin, Sister An Ning is here too.”
Following Li Sijin’s finger, Lin Yi saw An Ning five meters away.
An Ning could also feel the gazes of others on her. She turned to look at Lin Yi and Li Sijin.
Her expression froze and she quickly turned around. She did not dare to look at them, instead acting as if they did not know each other..
