Chapter 2005: Chapter 2005: A Solemn Promise

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Yi’s face was dark. “Can’t you think of anything else?”

“I can’t help it. I’m neither the main wife nor a lover. I have to seize opportunities where I can. Do you think it’s easy for me?”

Ning Che’s face remained calm, and she spoke with great righteousness, making Lin Yi feel like he was at fault.

“But I see Caie Mitsui is very devoted to you. Considering their unique cultural background in Sunrise Land, if you were in better shape, we three could have a fun night together. Just thinking about it is exciting.”

Ning Che sighed, “Ah, what a pity.”

Lin Yi shivered.

It seemed like he would need to recover quickly.

After all, these women were more vigorous than the next, and whether he could handle them was still an open question.

Time flowed like water, and before he knew it, three more days had passed.

Lin Yi’s wound had healed, but he still couldn’t make any intense movements to avoid tearing the wound.

However, Lin Yi didn’t plan to stay there any longer; he was ready to pack up and return to his country.

The only regret was not achieving the feat of the three of them sharing a bed.

But both women had taken care of him separately, so he felt he had enjoyed the best of both worlds.

As Lin Yi was leaving, Caie Mitsui saw him and Ning Che off at the airport.

This time, she behaved well, only showing reluctance without crying.

To her, Lin Yi was like Mount Huji, a majestic presence to be admired from afar.

No one could have him all to themselves.

About three hours later, Lin Yi’s private jet landed in Zhonghai. When he got off the plane, Ning Che helped him.

“Wow, Brother Lin, you’ve become so weak that you need help walking?” Liang Jinming said.

Besides him, Qin Han and Gao Zongyuan were also there to pick him up.

Over the past few days, the group had kept in touch.

Knowing Lin Yi was returning today, they had come to the airport in advance.

“Weak my *ss,” Lin Yi cursed, “I got stabbed a few days ago, had some stitches, and I’m not fully healed yet.”

“What the hell, you got stabbed?”

Their expressions changed as Qin Han lifted Lin Yi’s shirt, seeing a white bandage wrapped around his abdomen, hiding the wound.

“What happened? How serious is it? How many stitches?”

“About thirty.”

“Anyone who didn’t know would think you went to Sitia instead of Sunrise Land, always getting hurt,” Qin Han scolded.

“It was an accident,” Lin Yi said with a laugh.

“But this matter stays between us. Don’t tell anyone else.”

“You only need to tell Old Gao that,” Liang Jinming said.

“Damn it.”

“Let’s go. This isn’t the place to talk. Let’s go to my place for some food.”

“I have other things to do, so I won’t join you for the meal,” Ning Che said.

“It’s not going to take long. Just have a bite before you leave,” Lin Yi said.

“Boss Liu has something urgent to discuss. I really don’t have time. I’ll visit Zhonghai in a few days, and we can meet then.”

“Alright.”

After saying their goodbyes, Ning Che took Lin Yi’s private jet back to Yanjing.

Lin Yi and the others got in the car and headed to Qin Han’s BBQ restaurant for a welcoming meal.

“Brother Lin, you’re not leaving again, right?” Gao Zongyuan asked.

“Nothing urgent at the moment,” Lin Yi said.

“But even if something comes up, I can’t go. In my current state, I’d be cannon fodder.”

“Then just stay in Zhonghai peacefully. Otherwise, who knows when you’ll get into trouble again.”

It was clear that Qin Han didn’t want Lin Yi getting involved in the Central Guards Brigade’s affairs again.

But the situation was complicated, and there was nothing he could do to stop it.

All he could do was complain and vent.

“I know. I’ve got it under control.”

“Then let’s not talk about it anymore. Let’s have a drink,” Liang Jinming said, “This is Maotai from 1993, very strong.”

“Stop talking nonsense. Drinking will only slow my healing. I’d like to live a few more years.”

“You can’t drink and can’t touch women. This period must be torture for you.”

Lin Yi shrugged. “It is what it is.”

“Now’s not the time for that,” Qin Han said.

“There’s still the matter with Old Lin and President Ji. It’s not settled yet. We need to figure out a way to resolve it.”

Gao Zongyuan’s eyes lit up as if he had an idea.

“Brother Lin, there’s something coming up that might spell an opening for you.”

“What is it?”

“I heard from Yuanyuan that President Ji’s mother is celebrating her birthday soon. You could take this opportunity to visit and smooth things over between you two.”

“Do you think that’ll work?” Liang Jinming frowned, “President Ji’s temper isn’t something anyone can handle. What if it backfires?”

“Not necessarily. After the kidnapping incident, President Ji’s attitude has changed. It’s not as bad as we thought.”

Qin Han and Liang Jinming looked at Gao Zongyuan. “How do you know?”

“Because Yuanyuan doesn’t complain about him as much anymore.”

“Sh*t, that’s a reason?” Qin Han said.

“It really is,” Gao Zongyuan said. “At least her attitude isn’t as aggressive as before. It’s a good sign.”

“Whatever the case, if there’s an opportunity, we should take it,” Liang Jinming said. “Go and see how things stand.”

Lin Yi took a piece of beef and chewed it slowly.

It was indeed an opportunity, but how to use it to mend the relationship still needed careful consideration.

After the meal, as per Lin Yi’s request, Qin Han took him to Li Chuhan’s place.

His wound still needed care and disinfection, and he trusted Li Chuhan to do it.

“Another mission?”

Seeing Lin Yi’s wound, Li Chuhan frowned.

Lin Yi leaned back on the sofa. “Not really a mission, just an accident.”

Li Chuhan took out the disinfection tools and started treating Lin Yi’s wound.

“Who stitched you up? The technique is terrible.”

“Toyo Miharu Hospital,” Lin Yi said with a laugh.

“It’s decent enough. You can’t expect too much from them.”

“Now that you’re a team leader, do you still need to do such dangerous things?”

Li Chuhan didn’t say it directly, but it was clear she was a bit resentful.

“It was just an accident. It won’t happen again.”

Lin Yi’s tone was particularly serious, not like the casual responses he gave others.

He knew very well that if something happened to him, Li Chuhan wouldn’t survive either.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

So, even if just for her sake, he couldn’t take such risks again.

“Yes, please be careful.”

Li Chuhan responded gently.
