âNow that the problem has been resolved, there should be no need to pay attention to those people, right?â
âItâs better to be on guard. He might come and cause more trouble in the future.â Lin Yi said.
âBut you donât have to worry about this. Iâll help you keep an eye on the project. You just have to stay in the office and relax.â
Ji Qingyanâs beautiful eyes flitted back and forth over Lin Yi for quite a while.
âIf you say so, I actually have a task Iâd like to entrust to you, Mr. Lin. Would you consider it?â
âWhy are you looking at me with such suggestive eyes? Could it be you want to become a mother? Iâd gladly accept this responsibility without refusal. Letâs take action tonight, and I guarantee that in ten months, your dream of becoming a mother will come true.â
âGo away. Who said anything about this?â Ji Qingyan rolled her eyes.
âIn any case, you donât go to the company every day. Youâre just messing around. Why donât you come to my place? What do you think?â
âTo your place?â
âDidnât the company change to commercial real estate? I plan to separate the new business in this area from the other businesses in the company. Come to the company and be my vice president. Youâll be in charge of that business. That way, 1 wonât have to hire someone else.â
Ji Qingyan winked and said.
âIf you had told me a day earlier, I would have agreed. Iâm afraid I canât now.â
âHuh? Why not? Arenât you pretty free right now?â
âWho said Iâm free? Iâve already found a new job.â
âHuh? New job?â
âWait here.â
Lin Yi returned to the car and took out the ID and information the system had given him.
Upon seeing this, Ji Qingyan was stunned for a long while, her expression changing indeterminately.
âYouâre a cop?â
âThis job seems quite interesting. I want to give it a try.â
âYou really canât stay idle.â
Ji Qingyan quickly accepted the fact that Lin Yi had joined the police.
After all, he used to drive Didi and run errands. It seemed understandable for him to become a police officer now.
At the very least, it was a proper job.
The only disadvantage was that it was more difficult. This was not great.
âI donât object to you becoming a cop, but would it be risky? Does it involve shoot-outs, undercover work, that sort of thing?â
âUmâ¦â
Lin Yi pointed at Ji Qingyanâs forehead. âWhat are you thinking about? Be normal. At most, Iâll just be catching thieves. Itâs not as complicated as you think.â
âIf youâre just catching thieves, itâs nothing much,â said Ji Qingyan.
âAlthough youâre good at fighting, you have to be careful.â
âDonât worry.â
Ji Qingyan nodded with a smile.
âSince you canât come with me to the company now, could you take care of the recruitment process for me?â
âIt seems like you really want me to take charge of this, donât you?â
Lin Yi saw through her thoughts at a glance.
âHeheâ¦â Ji Qingyanâs eyes narrowed into slits as she chuckled.
âItâs mainly because this business is a turning point for the company. There canât be any mistakes. I canât take so much time to take care of it, and a certain someone would rather go out and have fun than help me. What can I do?â
âStop, stop, stop. Iâll take care of this. Donât beat around the bush.â
âThatâs more like it. If you listen to me obediently, youâll get a lot of benefits.â
âIâve already sent out the relevant recruitment information a week ago. Come to my place in a few days and look through the applications.â
âFrom what youâre saying, my body will end up being exhausted.â
âPervert.â
Ji Qingyan snapped at him, then untied her long hair behind her head.
âDo what you have to. Iâll go take a shower.â
âOkay, go ahead.â
Ji Qingyan went to the bathroom. Lin Yi took out his phone and called Qi Xianzhao.
At this time, it should be morning on his side.
âPresident Lin.â
âHow are things going over there?â
âWeâve been discussing a solution the past few days,â Qi Xianzhao said.
âAlthough these people have agreed to compensate, they are still procrastinating on some trivial matters and are unwilling to bear any additional responsibilities.â
âThese are small matters. Whatâs important is that we have to think of a way to transport the items back.â
âIâm also dealing with this matter. Iâve also contacted two reputable shipping companies, but neither of them has a spare ship. We need to wait for a while more. We will be able to sail in a month at the earliest. Weâre in a very passive situation.â
Lin Yi fell silent. Things were developing in the worst direction.
From all the signs, it was likely that someone was behind this, but they still didnât know who it was.
âRegarding the compensation, you deal with it first. At the same time, contact Bazil and get them to help deal with it. If they still refuse, then donât pay the remaining 20%.â Lin Yi said.
âIf thereâs still no progress on your side in the next few days, find two ships in Zhonghai. Donât worry about the cost. Just bring the goods back first.â
âGot it, President Lin.â
âBe careful while youâre there.â
âThank you, President Lin. 1 will.â
After a few more reminders, Lin Yi hung up, but he fell into a long silence.
Although he was not completely certain, he was 70% sure that this matter involved some hidden factors.
Therefore, it was not wise to try to overthink it. The most important thing now was to get the goods back.
Since they still held 20% of the final payment in their hands, even if there was a bit more back and forth, the group wouldnât incur any losses.
It was just a delay.
After dealing with Qi Xianzhaoâs matters, Lin Yi fiddled with his phone and called Mo Hongshan.
âBrother Shan, are you asleep?â
âNot yet. I just sent Elder Yang back. Whatâs the matter?â
âI want to ask you a small favor.â
âThereâs no need to be so polite. Weâre all on the same side. If you have something to say, just say it.â Mo Hongshan said straightforwardly.
âI have a project on Baoshan Road. Recently, someone has gone over to cause trouble. Can you send a few people over to watch over it for me for a few days?â
âWho dares to cause trouble at your place? How many brain cells do they have?â Mo Hongshan said with a laugh.
âIâm not sure myself. 1 thought of just waiting for things to happen, but 1 donât feel comfortable letting others handle it, so I have to rely on Brother Shan.â
âNo problem, just send me the specific address and a contact number. We can touch base afterwards.â
âThank you, Brother Shan, but donât make a big deal out of it. Stay hidden.â
âI know that. This is one of our training subjects. Itâs a small matter.â
âAlright,â Lin Yi said, âIâll send you the address later.â
Then, Lin Yi sent the relevant information to Mo Hongshan. With his ability, it wouldnât be a problem for him to handle this matter.
That night, Lin Yi, who was sleeping soundly, was woken up by the urgent ringing of his phone.
It was from Mo Hongshan.
âDonât sleep yet. Weâve caught him. Come to the construction site..â
