Seeing that Gao Dexi had adjusted the price and was about to leave, the villagers gathered again.
Originally, Gao Dexiâs price was not much higher than others, which was a little disappointing.
Now, he had increased the price again. This was quite good.
Even if someone else came, they probably wouldnât be able to offer a higher price than this.
âLet me tell you, this is your last chance. You know the situation in Dongsan County. You only produce so much food every year. Itâs not even worth us making another trip. If you donât agree, you get another chance in the future.â Gao Dexi said,
âAlso, that man is obviously a swindler. If you end up getting tricked, donât blame me. Moreover, if you donât agree to sell food before five oâclock tomorrow, I wonât accept it. You can decide what to do next.â
With that, Gao Dexi and Yu Mingming turned around and left without saying anything else to the people of Dongsan County.
More than 30 villagers from Dongsan County gathered together and fell into a dilemma.
They did not overcomplicate things. They just wanted to sell it for more money. That was all.
However, Lin Yiâs price was too high. It was so high that they didnât believe it themselves, so they were afraid of being cheated.
On the other hand, the price Gao Dexi offered was very good. It was very difficult to find another offer like this on the market, so they didnât know what to choose.
At the same time, Lin Yi and Li Sijin were walking towards the county.
âBrother Lin, are you serious? Are you actually offering such a high price?â
âWhy are you suspecting it too?â Lin Yi smiled.
âDo I look so bored to you?â
âOur family farms too. Iâve never seen such a high price since I was young.â Li Sijin changed her posture and looked at Lin Yi.
âBrother Lin, donât tell me youâre paying out of your own pocket just to do a good deed?â
âHow is that possible? No matter what, Iâm still a businessman. 1 wonât offer a losing deal.â Lin Yi said.
âI got someone to contact the central governmentâs grain storage. This is the price they gave me. We cut out many of the middlemen and even set the price according to the price of premium grain. Otherwise, it wouldnât be so high.â
âSo thatâs what happened.â Li Sijin was overjoyed and took out her phone.
âI have to call my father and ask him to come over tomorrow and sell all his grain.â
Lin Yi smiled and stepped on the accelerator, driving towards Dongsan County.
When they returned to the office, they happened to see Li Qingkai packing his things, as if he was preparing to get off work.
âComrade Li Qingkai, you are packing your things and getting off work at 4:10 just now. Even slackers donât act like you.â
Li Qingkai looked at the door and scolded jokingly,
âYou still have the cheek to criticize me, seriously.â
âSince you, the leader, have left, the two of us wonât stay here anymore. Letâs get off work too.â
âDonât go. Iâve been waiting for you.â
âIs something wrong?â
âCome to my house for dinner tonight. Iâll get your sister-in-law to make something good for you.â
âWhatâs the occasion?â
âA while ago, the two of you went to Zhonghai and bought so many things for my son. Your sister-in-law feels bad and wants to treat you to a meal.â
âDonât worry, it didnât cost much,â Lin Yi said.
âI know youâre rich and donât care about that, but we canât take your things for free. We have to show some respect.â Li Qingkai said.
âBoth of you, donât refuse. Pack your things and come with me later.â
âThen 1 wonât stand on ceremony.â
Compared to the joyous atmosphere on Lin Yiâs side, Ji Qingyanâs Yunshui Villa was much quieter.
Ji Qingyanâs clothes, cosmetics, and other daily necessities were packed into a car, which was all unloaded by evening.
Because it had been idle for too long and no one had taken care of it, there was a lot of dust in the corners of the villa.
There was a trace of desolation and coldness to the home.
Back then, Ji Qingyan had thought that she might never return. She had even thought of selling this villa.
Now that she thought about it, it was a good thing that she had been too lazy to sell it. Otherwise, she would currently be homeless.
âSenior Sister, donât stay here today. 1â11 get someone to clean it tomorrow.â
âMhm.â Ji Qingyan nodded. âLetâs talk about it tomorrow.â
Seeing that Ji Qingyan was not in a good mood, He Yuanyuan did not feel good either.
She wanted to cheer her up, but she didnât know what to say.
A person like her senior sister was very aware of the situation. No matter what
she said, it was useless. She could only let her slowly digest the news.
âItâs past five. Letâs find a place to eat. Iâm hungry.â
âBy the way, didnât Gao Zongyuan call you? You two go eat. Iâm not too hungry.â âYou havenât eaten all day. How can you not be hungry? Hurry up and follow me.â
âIâm really not hungry, and Iâm not in the mood to eat.â
âGo eat. 1â11 stay here for a while.â
âHow can 1 do that? I canât leave you here alone.â
âIâm already an adult. Are you still afraid that 1â11 take things too hard?
Seriously.â
Ji Qingyan tied her long hair into a ponytail, making it look neat and tidy.
âGo ahead. Iâll stay at home for a while.â
âForget it, 1 wonât go either. 1 can live without Gao Zongyuan, but I canât live without you,â He Yuanyuan said.
âHere you are speaking as though the sky is falling.â Ji Qingyan smiled.
âItâs not as serious as you think. Hurry up and eat.â
âNo.â He Yuanyuan refused immediately. â1â11 order some takeout. Letâs have a meal here.â
Ji Qingyan knew He Yuanyuanâs temper very well. She probably wouldnât leave even if she ordered her to.
âThen letâs decide on something.â
Exhausted, she sat on the sofa, lost in her thoughts.
He Yuanyuan did not know what to do either. She could only order the takeaway first.
People are like iron, and rice is like steel; they canât survive without eating.?
About forty minutes later, He Yuanyuan ordered a table full of food, but Ji
Qingyan was disinterested and only ate a few mouthfuls before setting it aside.
âSenior Sister, take a few more bites. You canât not eat after breaking up.â
âIâm really not that hungry.â
âEat first. 1â11 go back to my room to rest.â
âThe house hasnât been tidied up yet. How are you going to rest?â
âItâs fine. 1â11 just make do with it.â
With that, Ji Qingyan walked upstairs tiredly.
âSenior Sister, letâs not stay here.â
âIf not here, where?â
âDongsan County.â
Frowning, she asked, âWhy should we go to Dongsan County?â
âLetâs go see who that little vixen is.â He Yuanyuan rolled up her sleeves and said.
âWhy should 1 let him be so happy? When 1 see him, 1â11 go up and slap him.â
âStop fooling around.â
âThese things are very normal. Thereâs no need to go looking for him. When he comes back, Iâll just have him explain things clearly.â
âI canât wait any longer. If you want to say something, say it now. Letâs go now!â
