Later on, Lin Yi picked up Ji Qingyan. Although he still had a lot of work to do, there was not much left in the fridge at home. He was prepared to go to the supermarket to buy some more food.
Even though work was important, to Ji Qingyan, shopping with Lin Yi and experiencing life was more important.
âOkay, okay, okay. I wonât be buying rice, noodles, grains, and oil today. Iâll just buy some seasoning,â said Ji Qingyan.
âHas my mother-in-lawâs family already eaten? Since weâre already here, letâs buy some food and give me a chance to curry favor.â
âThe wound on your shoulder hasnât fully healed yet. Once itâs healed, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to fawn over me.â
âIâm impressed. Itâs so cold, yet you were in the mood to go hunting in the Greater Khingan Mountains. The most unlucky thing is that you even encountered a black bear. I donât know what to say.â
âUh⦠I also feel quite unlucky I encountered such a thing.â Lin Yi chuckled.
âHowever, two days ago, I saw a piece of news online. A person went to Changbai Mountain and encountered a Manchurian Tiger. I immediately felt grateful.â
âPeople like you should think about what you have done in your past life. I canât believe you encountered such a rare incident.â
Lin Yi was at a loss for words.
It seemed that he had indeed done a lot of bad things in his past life
âWhat does this have to do with whether I did anything wrong? Itâs all your fault.â
âWhat are you saying? I missed the part where Iâm at fault.â
âBecause meeting you has used up all the luck in my life. Not only now, but Iâll probably be unlucky for the rest of my life.â
Ji Qingyan couldnât react in time to Lin Yiâs sudden flirting, and her face reddened.
âWhen you say youâre obedient, you really mean it.â
âThen when I went to bed at night, wasnât I the same? I was like a pear blossom pressing down on a crabapple tree. No one could compare to me.â
âIf youâre going to die, can you make it do it silently? This is a supermarket. Donât talk nonsense.â
âWhatâs wrong with what Iâm doing? Weâre a proper couple, arenât we supposed to let people gossip about us?â Lin Yi said.
âIf their husbands had skills and techniques like mine, they would wake up laughing in the middle of the night. You donât know how to cherish me. What a waste.â
âGo, go, go. Donât talk about these inappropriate things.â
Ji Qingyan pulled Lin Yi along and continued to pick out things from the supermarket. They also ate something nearby and only reached home at seven in the evening.
After returning home, Ji Qingyan applied medicine for Lin Yi. Although he was almost fully recovered, and only some parts of his body were still bloody. However, Ji Qingyan had already gotten used to it. At the very least, her hands were no longer trembling.
âHas the company been very busy recently?â She asked while applying the ointment.
âNot really. Why are you asking me this?â
âI realized that youâve been in a daze recently. Is it because youâre under too much pressure?â
âDid you?â
âOf course I did.â
âUm⦠the company is going to build a few new software laboratories. I was thinking about these things.â
âItâs rare for you not to be rushing about nowadays. Rest well and relax your mind. Money isnât earned in a day.â
âAlright, Iâll listen to you.â
âBe good, muaâ¦â
After kissing Lin Yi on the cheek, Ji Qingyan put away the disinfectant and gauze.
âYou can play by yourself. Iâm going up to workâ
âSure.â
After Ji Qingyan left, Lin Yi put on his shoes and went to the courtyard.
He looked into the distance at the dazzling stars in the sky and listened to the sound of the surging waves. He could not calm down.
In the end, the knot in Lin Yiâs heart could not disappear due to the Wang family.
In addition, the Central Guards Brigade was also abnormally calm. Their activities were also spread out in an orderly manner. Although it looked like a good thing, it seemed a little too calm.
There was no sea without waves, no pond without ripples, no branches that swayed in the wind, and no Wang family that had given up their flags and drums.
No wonder the Wang family had been the number one family in Yanjing for so many years.
They were not without ability. Otherwise, Lin Yi would have long seen through their plan.
In the study on the second floor of the villa, Ji Qing stood by the window and looked down at Lin Yi. For some reason, her heart ached.
She knew that he was thinking about business matters, but she could not help much. She could not help but blame herself.
Ring ring ring!
Just as Lin Yi was thinking about these things, the phone in his pocket rang.
It was Yan Ci.
Lin Yi looked at his watch. It was already past eight in the evening. It seemed to be a good time to discuss business.
âCoincidentally, Iâve been troubled recently. Iâll use this chance to get rid of my worries.â
âAre you calling me at this time because you want to talk to me about the billion yuan business?â
âThat business is not urgent. Iâm a little drunk. Can you pick me up?â
Hearing Yan Ciâs panting voice, Lin Yiâs expression became serious.
âWhere are you? Iâll come over now.â
âStar Pari Hotel in Zhonghai. Call me when you get there.â
âOkay.â
After hanging up, Lin Yi returned to the villa and prepared to change his clothes to pick Yan Ci up.
At the same time, Ji Qingyan walked out of the study upstairs after hearing Lin Yiâs phone call.
âAre you going out?â
âIâm meeting a business partner. Do you want to come?â
Lin Yi was magnanimous, but he wasnât afraid at all.
This was because Ji Qingyan had a lot of work to do. She did not even have the time to talk to him, so how could she go out with him?
âI wonât be going. Be careful on the road. Donât drinkâ
Lin Yi had just said on the phone that he was going to discuss a billion yuan business deal. Although the amount wasnât small, he could handle it with his ability. There was no need for her to follow.
âThen Iâll leave first. Iâll be back later.â
âOkay, go ahead.â
After changing, Lin Yi drove out of Jiuzhou Pavilion.
In less than 40 minutes, be arrived at Star Pari Hotel.
After parking the car, he went to the lobby of the hotel and called Yan Ci to tell her that he had arrived.
Star Pari Hotel, Room 1704.
The private room was very large, at least 200 square meters.
The interior was also decorated with Huaxian elements. It was decorated with carved beams, golden dragons wrapped around the beams, and phoenixes spread their wings. It looked like a royal room.
Putting aside the taste of the food here, just the renovation alone was enough to make the place look good.
There was a large round table in the private room. There were more than ten men and women sitting there.
The men were dressed in a suit and leather shoes, exuding an air of nobility. They could also be seen with Xie Guangkunâs hairstyle.
In comparison, the three women were better.
Yan Ci, in particular, was wearing a wine-red dress, plush flesh-colored stockings, and a black cashmere coat. She looked like she was doing her best to stay warm.
At this moment, her face was slightly red. It was obvious that she had drunk a lot and had reached her limit.
âEveryone, Iâm really sorry. My boyfriend is here to pick me up. Excuse me for today. Iâll treat you another day and weâll come out for a gathering..â
