âItâs mainly because you canât use the other things. Itâs a waste to throw them away. I can only reluctantly pick them up and use them myself.â
âWhy does it sound like youâre the one whoâs been wronged?â
âIsnât that the case?â
âI donât even use their cosmetics, but for your sake, 1 bought an entire set. 1 canât throw away the rest, so I can only reluctantly use them. I never realized that I was such an understanding person.â
âOld lady, you should hurry up and take a shower. Donât be so unreasonable.â
She chuckled and headed upstairs with her cosmetics and new clothes.
This was a routine every time she came back from shopping. She had to take the things back and play with them for a while.
In her words, it was a sense of ritual.
At Huashan Hospital in Zhonghai.
During the day, not long after Lin Yi left the Jiangnan Spring Hotel, Ma San was sent to the hospital by his subordinates.
With the collaboration of many departments, it took the entire morning to stabilize his situation.
It seemed very serious and terrifying, but to the doctors in the hospital, it was similar to an amputation. It was not difficult to deal with, but the scene was a little bloody.
However, the doctors of Huashan Hospital were all experienced. They could tell at a glance that someone had cut his hand off. Therefore, when they performed the surgery, they were a little frightened.
Ordinary people simply do not sustain such injuries, indicating that the victim is not an ordinary person and definitely not clean.
In the dead of night, Li Huaxing drove to the hospital after receiving a call that Ma San had awakened and wanted to check on his condition.
Arriving at the fourth inpatient department, Li Huaxing entered Ma Sanâs private room to find him pale, with his hands wrapped in thick bandages, a sight that was shocking to see.
âPresident Li.â
Seeing Li Huaxing, Ma San said with difficulty.
âYouâve been wronged. I didnât expect this to happen.â Li Huaxing sighed. âThat man is more ruthless than I thought.â
âThis is also something I didnât expect,â Ma San said expressionlessly.
âIâve already contacted the people in Shianggang. We must take revenge. We definitely wonât let him off!â
âThis place is different from Shianggang. Itâs not our Li familyâs territory. You have to be careful in everything you do. Donât make any more mistakes.â
Although he did not say it explicitly, Li Huaxing had acquiesced to Ma Sanâs actions.
His father was already old and it was time to split the family assets. He would be the first successor if he could make a name for himself on the mainland.
Therefore, he could not let this matter rest!
âDonât worry, President Li. Iâll personally bring someone over this time. I wonât make a mistake on the business trip again.â
Li Huaxing nodded and sat on the chair beside him.
âHowâs your injury? What did the doctor say?â
Ma Sanâs face was gloomy, and his expression was extremely ugly. It seemed to be a memory that he did not want to recall.
âWe got into a fight, and heâs very skilled. Not only did he manage to cut off one of my hands, but he also broke one of my legs. After the injury stabilizes, Iâll need to have a steel plate inserted and will have to stay here for a while.â
âThereâs no need to stay here. Iâll take you back to Shianggang.â
As a trusted subordinate who had followed him for many years, Li Huaxing knew how important Ma San was to him and did not want to leave him inland.
âPresident Li, donât worry. It will be very troublesome to return to Shianggang at this time. I can get treated here first.â Ma San said.
âMoreover, we can take care of our business on the mainland and take revenge. Letâs stay here for the time being.â
Li Huaxing nodded. âThen weâll do as you say. Thereâs another piece of land being auctioned in Zhonghai. I have to go back and prepare. If you need anything, just let me know.â
âUnderstood, Mr. Li doesnât need to worry about me. The arrangements for the mainland shouldnât be delayed on my account. Iâll handle this matter as quickly as possible.â
âAlright, for now, donât think about anything else. Focus on healing. We can discuss other matters later.â
âThank you, President Li.â
The next morning, Ji Qingyan hummed a tune as she got out of bed to cook. She was in an exceptionally good mood.
While Lin Yi was eating, Ji Qingyan returned upstairs to change her clothes. When she arrived, Lin Yi was stunned.
She wore blue jeans, a white T-shirt, and a black jacket. Her hair was tied back into a ponytail. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
In her hands, she also held a pair of black Doc Martens boots, clearly meant to match the outfit she was wearing.
Styles like Doc Martens boots are generally hard for the average person to pull off, as they demand very specific leg types.
Your legs must be both long and straight, and not too thin, but most importantly, your posterior needs to be perky. Otherwise, the overall aesthetic appeal would be greatly diminished.
Thankfully, Ji Qingyanâs figure fit all of these requirements perfectly, and she looked cool and valiant.
âWhy did you change your style today? You rarely wear such clothes.â
âYouâve already become a police officer, so I have to match you.â Ji Qingyan spun around on the ground. âHow is it? It looks pretty good, right?â
âItâs good.â Lin Yi said.
âBut itâs useless for you to dress like this. 1 canât possibly wear a uniform and go out with you.â
âItâs just a ritual.â Ji Qingyan giggled.
âIâll send you to work today. Itâs a good time to see where we are and take a look.â
âPresident Ji personally sent me to work. Wouldnât those new colleagues be envious?â
âItâs useless to be envious, hehe.â
With that, Ji Qingyan planted a kiss on Lin Yiâs cheek. She was in a good mood.
Because it was a closed-door training session, Ji Qingyan took out Lin Yiâs suitcase after breakfast. It was filled with clothes and toiletries.
Although Ji Qingyan was supposed to send Lin Yi over, Lin Yi still ended up driving.
Ji Qingyan instinctively sat in the passenger seat, taking several selfies to document her new look.
The training venue was the Xinshan District. Lin Yi had some impression of this place.
Compared to the city, this place was considered a suburb. Although there were some bungalows, it was different from the countryside. It was just not as developed.
Previously, during a conversation with Liang Ruoxu, Lin Yi learned that this area was also a focus of planning, and he had already informed Ji Qingyan to strategize accordingly in this area.
âThe environment seems a bit lacking, but itâs still not bad, not as bad as I imagined.â
âAnyway, itâs still in the vicinity of Zhonghai, so naturally, it wonât be too bad, just not as developed.â
Ji Qingyan nodded, âLetâs go, Iâll walk you in.â
The two of them got out of the car, and Lin Yi brought the luggage down.
He looked at the door and realized that there were many people like him carrying things and walking in.
But at this moment, Lin Yi suddenly saw a familiar figure, and his heart skipped a beat.
âF*ck, it canât be her, right?â
