“Weren’t you supposed to be all that? Get up and continue fighting,” Lin Yi raised Yan Biao’s head and said.
“No, that’s enough. Let’s talk things over. Please, no more,” Yan Biao panted.
“Take your men and scram. If you cause trouble for me again in the future, you’ll be the next person lying on the road.”
“Yes, yes, yes. I’ll get lost now. We won’t cause any more issues.”
With the help of his subordinates, Yan Biao, Huang Mao, and the others left. Similarly, the shantytown also quietened down.
“Thanks for this.” Lin Yi patted Qin Han’s shoulder and said sincerely.
He was confident that he could have resolved this matter with his own ability.
However, Qin Han’s loyalty touched Lin Yi.
“Why are you bringing this up? We’re brothers. Don’t stand on ceremony.”
“Brother Lin, Wang Mazi and the others are a group of hooligans. Moreover, they’re in cahoots with the Zhao family. I have a feeling that Wang Mazi won’t let this go so easily.” Liang Jinming said, “We still have to be careful.”
“That’s right. If anything happens in the future, just let us know. We’ll be on call,” Gao Zongyuan said.
Lin Yi patted their shoulders. He had a lot to thank them for, but he felt that it would be too pretentious to say it, so he didn’t say anything.
“In the past, you guys helped me a lot. I wanted to treat you guys to a meal as well as a night of fun in order to repay this favor. However, today’s issue was a little too big. I definitely can’t afford to pay you back just by treating you to some food. In the future, if you need any investment or help with family projects, just let me know. I’ll be on call.”
“F*ck, what are you saying? If you keep being polite, I’ll get mad,” Qin Han said.
“Alright, that’s all for today.” Lin Yi said.
“Take these brothers to the Peninsula Hotel for a meal and give each of them 2,000 yuan. Don’t make them have come here for nothing.”
“I got it, don’t worry about it. No one will hold any grudges against you.”
“Alright, that’s all for today. You can all go back first.”
Under Lin Yi’s arrangements, everyone left one after another.
Lin Yi looked at Wang Hongji. “This matter should end here. Just proceed normally, but you can’t tell President Ji about this, understand?”
“Got it, Brother Lin.”
Lin Yi looked at Wang Ying. “Let’s go back.”
“You head back to pick up President Ji. Don’t worry about me.”
Wang Ying had her own car, so Lin Yi didn’t dwell on these small matters.
“In that case, I’ll leave first. Drive back slowly. If there’s anything the company needs in the future, remember to tell me sooner rather than later.”
“Okay, got it.”
After reminding Wang Ying, Lin Yi prepared to drive away.
“Lil Yi.”
The moment the car door opened, Lin Yi was stopped by Wang Ying.
“What’s wrong? Is there anything else?”
“I know I don’t have the right to say anything about you, but can you listen to me and stop doing such dangerous things in the future?” Wang Ying’s eyes were red.
“Although I can’t even be considered your lover now, if something really happens to you, I won’t be able to live anymore.”
“What are you talking about?”
Lin Yi hugged Wang Ying’s waist and kissed her forehead.
“Don’t think about useless things all day. You don’t have to worry about me. A person who can hurt me hasn’t appeared yet.”
“Just promise me, or I won’t be able to sleep well.”
“Alright, I promise you,” Lin Yi said, “Your words are a reminder to me.”
“I’m relieved to hear that.”
“Alright, drive back slowly. Call me if you or Lulu ever need anything.”
“Yeah.”
After calming Wang Ying down, the two of them drove their separate ways.
Lin Yi drove to Chaoyang Group before Ji Qingyan got off work.
“Doctor Lin, have you gotten off work? Do you need to work overtime today?” Ji Qingyan asked over the phone.
“I haven’t gotten off work yet. I have something on tonight, so I have to work overtime.”
“Oh.” Ji Qingyan’s spirits plummeted.
Lin Yi had said in the afternoon that he would get off work in the evening and pick her up.
She had already planned out where to eat. It seemed like their plans had fallen through once again.
“Then remember to eat dinner. If you’re tired, sleep for a while, understand?”
“There’s no way I can rest. There’s an emergency patient at Chaoyang Group. I’m in the parking lot waiting for the patient to come down.”
“Huh?”
She was stunned for a moment before her heart filled with joy.
“Have you reached the parking lot downstairs?”
“A long time ago, but I don’t know when my patient will come down. I’ve been waiting for a long time. It seems she has no sense of time.”
“Hehe, then wait for me. I’ll change my clothes and go down immediately.
“I bought a new dress a few days ago. It’s especially beautiful. I’ll wear it for you to see later.”
“It’ll be my pleasure.”
About ten minutes later, Ji Qingyan walked out of the elevator with her handbag in hand like a happy little bird.
Ji Qingyan was wearing a black tube top dress with a four-leaf clover pattern on it. She was also wearing a pair of three-centimeter high heels that accentuated her figure.
Ji Qingyan stood by Lin Yi’s window and gave him a spin.
“Is this dress nice? I spent a long time picking it.”
“The dress isn’t that good, but it looks good on you.”
She smiled adorably. “I knew you would say that.”
With that, she opened the passenger door and got into Lin Yi’s car.
“Why are you getting in? I’m here to pick up my patient.”
“I’m your patient.”
“May I ask what illness you have?”
She raised her head proudly. “It’s an incurable disease.”
“You’re so full of yourself.”
“Hehe, drive quickly. I want to bring you to a particularly delicious French restaurant.”
“Let’s go.” Lin Yi said.
“You know, I realize now that you’re a real glutton.”
“That’s because of how much you feed me. Hmph.”
“You even blame me for this. How can you be so unreasonable?”
“I can blame everything on you.”
As they drove to their destination, Lin Yi chatted and laughed with Ji Qingyan the entire way.
After that, they went to eat French food and watched a movie. Satisfied, Ji Qingyan later followed Lin Yi back to Jiuzhou Pavilion.
After returning, they washed up briefly and returned to their rooms to rest.
The next morning, Ji Qingyan once again made breakfast, and this time, it seemed that her culinary skills had improved significantly. She had probably learned a lot from Zhang Shumin recently.
Since Lin Yi’s working hours were uncertain, Ji Qingyan did not ask him to send her off. Instead, she drove to Chaoyang Group.
As soon as she arrived at the office, she saw the secretary bring over a large stack of documents.
“President Ji, the project in the suburbs has been settled. We can start work at any time.”
“Really?” Ji Qingyan was surprised. “Yesterday, those tenants refused to move no matter what. How did they suddenly come to an agreement?”
“The project department said that the other party saw that our attitude was firm and there was no possibility of us backing down, so they simply agreed.”
“That’s pretty good.” Ji Qingyan looked at her watch. “Inform the company’s vice president and the project department to have a meeting at ten.”
“Got it, President Ji. I’ll go inform them now.”
The secretary turned around and left. Ji Qingyan heaved a sigh of relief and prepared to give Lin Yi a call to tell him the good news.
However, just as she picked up her phone, she saw an unfamiliar number calling her.
“Who are you?”
“President Lin, I’m Wang Bing1. I hope you still remember me.”
“Wang Bing?” Ji Qingyan thought for a moment. “I’m sorry, I don’t know you.”
“President Ji, you’re really forgetful. We met at the bidding center that day. Don’t you remember anything?”
She recalled the bidding process that day and suddenly recalled who the other party was.
“You must have been the man in the linen suit.”
“That’s right, that’s me.”
“Why are you looking for me?” Ji Qingyan asked sternly.
This person didn’t get along with Lin Yi, Ji Qingyan was not very polite toward him.
“There’s something I want to tell you. Yesterday in the shantytown, your man, Lin Yi, hit my subordinate and seriously injured him. Now, we don’t know if he’ll survive. He is in critical condition. President Ji, you’re the boss of Chaoyang Group, so shouldn’t you take a stand?”
