Chapter 525: Chapter 525 - Why Did You Call Him a Brat?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Hearing this, the Cao family was stunned.

Even Zhao Mo, who was about to leave, stopped in his tracks.

“Alright, I understand. Hurry up and contact someone to put out the fire. I’ll go over now!”

Cao Xiangyu hung up the phone and looked at the person in the room in shock.

“The goods we stored at Sci-Tech were all burned down!”

Cao Jiadong’s hands were trembling and he was out of breath.

“It-it must be Lin Yi!”

“Other than him, there can’t be anyone else who would do this!” Cao Xiangyu said through gritted teeth.

“I’ll call him now!”

Without any explanation, Cao Xiangyu called Lin Yi again.

“Lin Yi, how dare you burn Cisco’s goods? I won’t let you off!”

“Ah? Burn Cisco goods?” Lin Yi was surprised.

“Brother Cao, you’re going too far. The assembly line, warehouse, canteen, and toilet are all under your control. My little secretary doesn’t even have the right to go in and take a look around. What right do you have to say that I burned your goods? Isn’t this slander? You have to bear legal responsibility if you continue.”

“Don’t talk nonsense. You did it!”

“Brother Cao, calm down.” Lin Yi smiled.

“Think about it. Even if I did it, what can you do? We signed an agreement before. I’d hand the warehouse to you for safekeeping. If anything ends up happening, it will have nothing to do with me. Therefore, you have no right to come looking for me. You’d better think of a way to put out the fire. Otherwise, it’ll all burn down.”

With that, Lin Yi hung up, not giving Cao Xiangyu a chance to speak.

The Cao family members stopped talking, their faces filled with fear.

When they signed the warehouse escrow agreement, they all knew the details.

Cao Jiadong and Cao Xiangyu even celebrated it.

At that time, only Cao Jingqiu expressed her doubts, but neither of them listened and didn’t take Lin Yi seriously.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yi had started plotting against Cisco from that moment on!

If the goods in the warehouse were burned, the loss would not be as simple as a small amount of goods.

Originally, Cisco wanted to rely on these goods to supply some other small companies. This way, he could recover billions of yuan in cost. This could slightly reduce the cost they would have to bear.

Now that the warehouse was on fire, not only would they not be able to supply other companies, but they would also be involved in a bigger lawsuit and have to pay out huge compensation packages.

Before this, he could still recoup billions of yuan, but now he had lost billions more. The net loss was at least five billion yuan.

Supporting her forehead in pain, Cao Jingqiu closed his eyes and leaned on the sofa without saying a word.

He thought that Lin Yi had pushed Cisco from heaven to the mortal world, but he didn’t expect to be pushed into hell.

It was impossible for Cisco to make a comeback.

…

Liang Ruoxu’s home.

She also heard Lin Yi and Cao Xiangyu’s second call.

Apart from being shocked, she was also shocked by Lin Yi’s methods.

After lying low for so long, it turned out he had been plotting against Cisco from the beginning to the end.

He planned out every step of the way until they were completely destroyed.

Liang Ruoxu sighed. Why did he have to provoke Lin Yi for no reason?

“You’re too bold,” Liang Ruoxu said. “I feel like I’m here to clean up after you. Zhao Mo will definitely come to me tomorrow.”

“I guessed as much. Maybe he’ll punish me through Lingyun and Didi.” Lin Yi said.

“But if he dares to do that, it would be too boring. How lowly would his methods be?”

“I’ll try to calm him down for you.”

“There’s no need,” Lin Yi said, “Try your best not to get involved in this. I’ll deal with him.”

“Are you sure you have the ability to deal with Zhao Mo?”

“Actually, I don’t know how to deal with him either. When the time comes, it won’t be a problem for me to counter every one of his moves one by one.”

“Alright,” Liang Ruoxu said. “Since you’re drinking tonight, don’t leave. Stay here.”

“Well, I’m not going to reject such a ridiculous request.”

“Pervert.”

Liang Ruoxu knew that Lin Yi and Zhao Mo’s grudges couldn’t be resolved no matter how much they talked things out, so she decided to let it go. She would ask her mother for her opinion later and see what she said.

“Do you want to take a shower? I’ll fill the bathtub for you,” Liang Ruoxu said.

“Are you going to scrub my back?”

“Scrub your back?”

“That’s right. It’s just like in Japanese movies. They rub together and blend together.”

“Rub your *ss. Quickly wash up and go to sleep!”

“Sigh…”

At around 11 pm, the two of them washed up and returned to their rooms to rest.

Liang Ruoxu put on a facial mask and started a WeChat video call with Shen Shuyi.

The mother and daughter were connected by heart as Shen Shuyi was also wearing a facial mask.

“It’s already eleven o’clock. Why aren’t you asleep yet?” Shen Shuyi asked.

“Mom, I want to ask you something,” Liang Ruoxu said. “You should have heard about what happened in Zhonghai.”

“Are you talking about Longxin and Cisco?”

“Yes, this matter has caused a huge commotion. Lin Yi even burned three billion yuan worth of their goods. This is really big.” Liang Ruoxu said.

“Zhao Mo vouched for Cisco. After the accident, Zhao Mo came to Zhonghai. Moreover, the two of them even talked on the phone. There’s a grudge between them. With their personalities, I’m afraid they’ll fight to the death.”

“Don’t worry, that’ll be impossible. The two of them aren’t fools. If they didn’t know their limits, they would have been finished long ago.” Shen Shuyi faced the camera and adjusted her mask, not caring about the conflict between the two sides.

“Why not? You know Zhao Mo’s personality.”

“But you have to know that the Huayin Group isn’t his. Your Aunt Wang is in charge of it. Although he can mobilize a large sum of money, he won’t mess around with it.”

Liang Ruoxu rolled his eyes. “Mom, you mean that as long as Lin Yi can survive this period of time, everything will be fine?”

“Theoretically.”

“Theoretically? Could there be possibilities of something else happening?”

“That’s hard to say. That stinking brat has so many trump cards. Who knows which one he’ll play?” Shen Shuyi said.

“In his eyes, Cisco was equivalent to a bandit stealing some small goods, but Lin Yi reliated with a bomb. Who could have predicted this?”

In the entire Huaxia, there were not many people that Shen Shuyi could not understand.

Especially with the matter regarding Beiqiao Town. In the end, he actually handed off the reputation gain to her CITIC Group and allowed them to benefit from it.

He was exactly like his father.

His head was filled with strange thoughts.

“Wait…”

Liang Ruoxu looked at Shen Shuyi suspiciously. “Why did you call him ‘stinking brat’ just now? Isn’t that term a little too familiar?”

“Um…

“It’s all because of the two of you. After all, I’m his future mother-in-law. It’s not wrong for me to call him that, right?”

Because she knew Lin Jingzhan, Shen Shuyi subconsciously used a nickname. She did not expect to be misunderstood, so she could only try to spit out an explanation.

“I’ve already explained myself. It’s not as you think. Both of us are innocent.”

Creak…

The door was pushed open and Lin Yi walked in casually.

“Other than the refrigerator, do you have water anywhere else in your house? I’m so thirsty.”
