“Young Master Qin, what a coincidence,” Wang Mazi said.

“The municipal tender project has nothing to do with you, right?” Qin Han said.

“Indeed, it initially had nothing to do with me, but I find this project pretty attractive, so I’m cooperating with Director Zhao to develop it.”

“You still want to do real estate? Do you think you are the right person for the job?”

Wang Mazii wasn’t angry at all but instead smiled.

“Of all the high-end real estate developers out there these days, how many of them are clean? It’s only reasonable for us to get involved.”

Qin Han shrugged. “I can’t control you, but I’ve already told Zhang Ao everything I needed to say. Lin Yi is my brother, so you’d better set aside those evil thoughts. We’re all businessmen, and we’re here for money. Don’t make things unpleasant.”

Hearing that, Ji Qingyan was surprised.

She never thought that Lin Yi would get involved with these hooligans.

Sensing Ji Qingyan’s mood change, Lin Yi patted her shoulder, telling her to relax.

“The bidding is about to start. Go get ready, don’t waste time.”

Ji Qingyan grabbed Lin Yi’s hand. “What about you?”

“I’ll come find you after I’m done with this.”

“Come with me. Don’t stay here.”

“Old Qin is here. How can I leave him behind?” Lin Yi gave her a relaxed look. “Just continue with the bid normally. Don’t worry about me. Go.”

“Be careful then.”

Because of his relationship with Qin Han, Ji Qingyan knew that she wouldn’t be able to bring Lin Yi away.

However, she wasn’t too worried about Lin Yi’s safety.

This was the city’s bidding hall, which was official government property. No matter how bold these people were, they wouldn’t dare to make a move here.

“Okay, go.”

Lin Yi looked at Luo Wan, who was sitting in the corner, and smiled. “Director Luo, the bidding is about to start. You guys should go out and prepare for it.”

“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll go out with President Ji.”

Luo Wan was a proper businessman. He had never experienced anything like this before.

President Lin was really something.

He had a feud with Zhao Zhengyang and Wang Mazi. If word got out, it would be enough to cause a stir in Zhonghai.

Everyone who had nothing to do with the matter walked out of the meeting room. After this, Wang Mazi put his hands behind his back and looked at Qin Han.

“You can ask me not to pursue this matter, but are you asking me to let Zhang Ao’s injuries go just like that?”

“He ran over to show off and help Li Qingfeng settle a score. He was stabbed because he wasn’t capable enough, and now you guys are here to take revenge. What are you doing now by taking advantage of your superior numbers to bully those smaller than you?”

“This is the rule of the underworld. From the beginning to the end, this is how we do things.”

“Alright, let’s do things according to the rules of the underworld, then.” Qin Han pointed at Wang Mazi and said,

“I’ll let you include Zhao Zhengyang. I’ll let you even decide on the place to have the fight. Anyone who doesn’t show up will be branded a coward.”

“Look at how this matter has developed.” Wang Mazi chuckled and said,

“We’re already so old, so who would still want fight and kill? The underworld has become a lot more civil now.”

“Civil?” Qin Han smiled. “If you’re talking to me about civility, it means that you haven’t risen high enough.”

Wang Mazi’s face darkened. Previously, he could still face Qin Han as an elder.

However when he heard the word ‘haven’t risen high enough’, he could not control his emotions.

“I, Wang Mazi, have been in this world for so many years. Isn’t it ridiculous for you to say that I don’t understand the ways of the world?”

Qin Han leaned back in his chair with his legs crossed.

“We’re not even in the same class. Why are you discussing the civility with me? Only when two parties are evenly matched do you start discussing such things. If you meet someone of a higher level, do you think they’d be willing to grant you such mercy?”

“But at the very least, the Qin family hasn’t reached that level yet.”

“I’ll repeat what I said just now. If you want revenge, we will fight face to face. If you do anything sneaky in the dark, I’ll arrange to take care of your whole family.”

“Who the hell do you think you are talking to…”

“Get lost.”

Zhang Ao’s scolding stopped abruptly at Lin Yi’s words. He didn’t dare to say another word.

“Haha…”

Wang Mazi laughed dryly. “We’re here to bid today, not to fight. We’ll talk about these trivial matters later. I have plenty of time anyway.”

“Then we’ll waste it slowly,” Qin Han said playfully. “But I suggest you guys don’t join this bid. You won’t enjoy any success.”

“What does he mean by that?” Wang Mazi looked at Zhao Zhengyang, wanting to know what was going on.

The latter whispered in his ear a few times, and his expression changed. Finally, he left the small meeting room with a cold face.

“What a bunch of idiots,” Qin Han cursed.

“What’s the point of being so arrogant? It’s not worth it.” Lin Yi patted Qin Han’s shoulder. “Let’s get Old Liang and Old Gao together for dinner tonight.”

“Just for dinner?”

“Then what else were you thinking?”

“We should at least have a swimsuit party. It’ll be more exciting that way.”

“F*ck…”

Three hours later, Ji Qingyan walked in excitedly. “Lin Yi, we won the bid!”

Qin Han sighed silently.

‘Your man even won over Liang Ruoxu. It’d be weird if you didn’t secure the project.’

However, after thinking about it, he found this matter really infuriating.

A mistress giving a project to her first wife was really f*cking shady business. The benefits would be kept completely internal.

“See, I told you that you would win the bid.”

“Okay, okay, okay. You’re the best.” Ji Qingyan said delightedly, “As a reward, I’ll cook dinner for you tonight.”

“Cough, cough, cough…”

Qin Han coughed lightly. “Old Lin, didn’t you say that you’d treat me to dinner tonight? I think the weather’s pretty good today, so let’s do it today.”

“You guys are such jokers…”

“What are you talking about?” Ji Qingyan stopped them. “If you guys don’t mind, come with us. We can also invite Liang Jinming and Gao Zongyuan. It’ll be more lively with more people.”

Earlier at Xinhua Airport, Liang Jinming and Gao Zongyuan had helped Lin Yi and herself out of trouble.

Now that they had the chance, they had to repay them.

“It’s settled then.”

The group returned to Jiuzhou Pavillion later, but they had barbecued meat for dinner instead of making Ji Qingyan cook.

Ji Qingyan went back to rest after ten at night.

Lin Yi, Qin Han, and the others drank until dawn before ending the engagement.

The next morning, Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan got up and prepared to go to work.

Qin Han and the others were still sleeping soundly. Lin Yi ignored them and let them continue resting.

“Doctor Lin, it’s your first day on the job. I won’t make you send me off,” Ji Qingyan said playfully. “It’s won’t be good if you’re late.”

“That works for me. Pick a car from the garage.”

Ji Qingyan glanced at the garage. “I’ll drive a Bentley, but you shouldn’t drive a luxury car. It’ll be too eye-catching. I’ll find some time to buy you an ordinary car.”

“I don’t care what I drive. I don’t need to buy a car. I’m already quite comfortable in my Shari.” Lin Yi said with a smile.

The two drove to work separately after assigning the cars.

As the best hospital in Zhonghai, Huashan Hospital was naturally quite high-class.

Lin Yi sighed as well. He’d finally found himself a more awesome job.

“What’s going on?”

He was walking past a market when he saw a large group of people blocking the road.

There wasn’t even enough space for a bicycle to pass through, let alone Lin Yi’s Shari.

Lin Yi got out of the car and walked toward the crowd. He wanted to see what was going on.

“Can someone help us? My grandfather suddenly has a stomachache and can’t stand up anymore.”

Just as he walked over, he saw a little girl carrying a schoolbag and crying.

Beside her was a pale-faced old man with a pained expression, as if his life was in imminent danger.

“Don’t move, let me take a look!”

Just as everyone was thinking of helping but was unsure of how to do so, a young man rushed out from the crowd.

The man was about twenty years old. He had short hair, eyes, and a scholarly air about him.

“Big Brother, do you have a way to cure my grandfather?” The girl cried.

“Don’t worry, I’m a doctor from Huashan Hospital. Just leave it to me, there won’t be any problems.”

“A doctor from Huashan Hospital!”

“This girl is really lucky. Huashan Hospital is the best hospital in Zhonghai, and the doctors there are all extraordinary. Her grandfather will be okay this time.”

Lin Yi was a little surprised. He didn’t expect to meet a colleague here.

“Thank you, Big Brother.”

The bespectacled man was very professional. He first touched the old man’s abdomen and appendix, then looked at his eyelids and tongue. Finally, he said seriously,

“This is acute appendicitis. We have to send him to the hospital quickly. If we are late, his life will be in danger!”

“What?! Acute appendicitis!”

The little girl cried even harder and panicked.

It was normal for a young girl like her to panic when faced with such a situation.

“Acute appendicitis is life-threatening. There’s no time to wait for the ambulance.”

“Sigh, how pitiful. He actually fell ill in such a place. He’s too unlucky.”

“Alright, stop talking for now. Since we can’t wait for an ambulance, we’ll borrow a nearby car and bring the old man there ourselves,” the bespectacled man said hurriedly.

Hearing this, everyone realized that this would be much more effective than an ambulance.

Then, everyone turned their attention to Lin Yi. Because this was a vegetable market, no other car could be reached at this time. At this moment, only his car could be used.

“Kid, I need your car. Take this old man to the hospital!”

The bespectacled man was about to help the old man up and into Lin Yi’s car.

“Why do you need to get into my car?”
