Chapter 2101: Chapter 2101: Nothing to Say to Him

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“You b*stard!”

This time, Li Zheng stood up, completely ignoring Lin Yi’s threat, and shouted loudly.

“Let me tell you, you’d better understand your position and status. Any one of us here could easily cut Lingyun Group’s stock price in half. Don’t say I didn’t warn you!”

“That does sound quite intimidating, but what I want to say is that whatever you all plan to do is your business. However, society isn’t very safe nowadays. You should be careful when you go out; you might fail to achieve your goals and lose your life instead.” Lin Yi said calmly.

“Secondly, about your dirty business, I won’t bother saying much. Especially you, Director Li. Last year, a female student from the Sino-Overseas Huaxia University named Yu Jiao had to suspend her studies due to an unexpected pregnancy. I believe Director Li still remembers her.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the room was filled with shock, and everyone became uneasy.

Some of the executives present were aware of the incident from last year.

But the matter had been handled promptly and very discreetly, with almost no one on the outside knowing about it. How did this person in front of them find out?!

“Judging by your expressions, you all know what I’m talking about. So, I won’t waste any more words. As for the rest of you, I don’t need to say much. You all know your own situations. So, how you handle this is up to you. It’s always best to leave some room for negotiation; it’ll make things easier in the future.”

After speaking, Lin Yi stretched lazily.

“It looks like time’s about up. Let’s call it a day.”

After finishing, Lin Yi walked to the door of the meeting room, opened it, and gestured to Shen Shuyi.

“Aunt Shen, the meeting’s over. Shall we head out?”

Shen Shuyi gracefully stood up, smiling at the other executives present.

It was as if she was announcing the victory of this battle.

Shen Shuyi elegantly walked out of the conference room, with Lin Yi following behind, and the two returned to the office together.

“Where did you get all that information? From the Central Guards Brigade?” Shen Shuyi asked.

“Other than the Central Guards Brigade, no one else could get that stuff. After all, these people have pretty special identities. Without certain channels and methods, it would be impossible to find out.”

“Looks like you were well prepared in advance.”

“Know thyself and know thy enemy, and you’ll win every battle,” Lin Yi said.

“These people are no pushovers. Simple threats wouldn’t work, so I came up with this approach.”

“No matter the method, at least they’ve surrendered.” Shen Shuyi said.

“Now, we’re in a balanced situation. Neither side can do much to the other. So, what you did won’t cause too much trouble. I think things will calm down for a while.”

“But I remember you told me about these projects last year. Why are they causing trouble now?”

“It’s due to the nature of Huaran Group. Every few years, there’s a change of leadership, so they timed it for this critical moment.”

“I see.”

“With the way you disrupted today’s meeting, I believe they won’t dare make any reckless moves now, and I can relax a bit.” Shen Shuyi said.

“Come on, you haven’t had dinner yet, have you? Let me treat you to a meal.”

“No, no, Aunt Shen, let me treat you instead.”

“Why be so formal with me?”

Lin Yi chuckled and said no more.

Being too polite with each other would only make their relationship seem distant.

They both drove separately to a Huaiyang restaurant.

Shen Shuyi’s arrival made the restaurant manager feel like an emperor was visiting in disguise. He spoke with a hunched posture the entire time, escorting Shen Shuyi to a VIP private room.

Neither of them were extravagant people. They ordered three dishes and a soup and began their dinner.

“I heard the Central Guards Brigade had some trouble recently. Has it been resolved?”

“It was taken care of that very night. But the saying goes, ‘Repaying evil with evil.’ There will be a series of retaliatory actions soon.”

“You mentioned earlier that you’d be leaving tomorrow afternoon. Is it to deal with that?”

Lin Yi nodded, not hiding anything from Shen Shuyi.

“I need to go to Lundun. It should only take two or three days. It won’t take long.”

“Lundun?”

“Why? Do you have any instructions, Aunt Shen?”

“Not really.” Shen Shuyi said.

“A few days ago, Qixian Zhao from your group was on a business trip to Yanjing. He came to see me, and we talked about work. He mentioned that there’s an international semiconductor conference in London soon, and he’s attending. Maybe you’ll run into him when you go.”

Lin Yi nodded seriously, thinking he could give Qixian Zhao a call when he got there.

With so much going on recently, he hadn’t been able to manage the group’s affairs. Now that he had the chance, he figured he should catch up with him.

Though, he wondered if there would be any KTV in Lundun. Without it, chatting might be pointless.

Shen Shuyi paused for a moment.

“How’s your team doing now?”

Shen Shuyi’s sudden shift in topic took Lin Yi by surprise.

He hadn’t expected her to bring up his team.

“Why are you asking about that, Aunt Shen?”

“There’s an old saying, ‘One fence needs three posts; one hero needs three helpers.’ No matter how skilled you are, you can’t achieve great things alone.” Shen Shuyi said slowly.

“Even someone as strong as your father had a group of experts around him. If your team doesn’t live up to expectations, it’ll be hard for you to stand on the world stage.”

Lin Yi chuckled. “Aunt Shen, you’re overestimating me. I don’t have such grand ambitions. A wife, kids, and a warm bed are enough for me.”

“Now you sound just like your mother.” Shen Shuyi said. “She came back for a visit a few days ago. I heard she went to Zhonghai. Did she contact you?”

“She went back to Zhonghai?” Lin Yi asked in surprise.

Shen Shuyi nodded. “She called me when she arrived, and we chatted for a bit. She said she was short on time, so she didn’t come to Yanjing. I thought she had contacted you.”

Lin Yi shook his head. “How is she doing? Is everything okay?”

“Your mother’s doing fine. When we video-chatted, I noticed she’d gained a little weight recently. As for your father, I’m not sure.”

Lin Yi’s eyes shifted. “Aunt Shen, do you know much about what’s going on on the island?”

“You’ve asked the wrong person.” Shen Shuyi laughed and said.

“Even though Little Mi’s grandfather works in the Central Guards Brigade, that’s just him personally. I’m just an ordinary person. Ordinary people and the Central Guards Brigade, as well as the island, are worlds apart. What I know is very limited, so there’s not much I can tell you.”

After speaking, Shen Shuyi paused and continued.

“If you want to know more, you should call your father. He knows a lot about what’s happening on the island.”
