?
Qin Han walked in.
Everyone except Lin Yi, including Qiao Zihao, was a little nervous.
âLin Yi, what are you doing? Didnât you see Young Master Qin enter? Get up!â
Seeing Lin Yi sitting there as if nothing had happened, Qiao Zihao snorted coldly.
âWhy should I get up just because heâs here?â
Qiao Zihaoâs face turned ugly. Was this guy here to mess things up?
What kind of person did he think he was? He didnât even stand up when Young Master Qin walked in!
He was so f*cking pretentious!
The Gu family members shook their heads. This Lin Yi was too much.
Even country bumpkins like them knew how to stand up and toast, yet he was still sitting there eating.
There wouldnât be any big developments in the future.
Qiao Zihao didnât say anything when he saw Lin Yi insist on sitting alone. He simply raised his glass and smiled.
âYoung Master Qin, youâre too kind. Weâre just having a casual meal, but you arranged for a private room and are now making a toast. Youâre making me feel embarrassed. Letâs have a good drink when I set up a table one day.â
Gu Jingwuâs eyes lit up when she saw Qiao Zihao chatting happily with Qin Han.
His brother-in-law was too handsome. She only needed to be half as handsome as his brother-in-law in the future.
Huh?
Qin Han was a little stunned. What was going on?
He was hosting this for Lin Yi. Why was this guy standing up?
âWho are you? Do you think youâre worthy of me making a toast to you?â
Huh?
Qiao Zihao was stunned. âQin, Young Master Qin, what are you talking about? Arenât you here to make a toast to me?â
âWho are you?â Qin Han said. âIâm doing all this for Lin Yi. Why donât you take a p*ss and look at yourself? Besides, I donât even know you. Why should I give you a toast?â
Everyoneâs head buzzed as they looked at Lin Yi in disbelief.
It turned out that they were wrong!
Qiao Zihaoâs reputation was not that big!
At this moment, they all looked at Lin Yi!
Was he not just a high school administrator? Moreover, he was an orphan with no power or influence. How could he have such a big reputation?
âCome, come, fill your glasses, Iâll drink to you.â Qin Han smiled. âOld Lin, many city leaders came today. Donât hold a grudge against me for being late.â
âDonât worry. Iâm not that particular.â
âThatâs good.â
âErm, Young Master Qin, I donât know how to drink. Can I just drink fruit juice?â Gu Jingshu said nervously.
With Qin Hanâs popularity and status in China, Gu Jingshu never thought that she would one day be able to drink with such a person in the same private room. She was so nervous that her brain felt short of oxygen.
âForget about the juice. Drink less, Iâll pour it for you.â Qin Han said
âNo, no, no, Young Master Qin. Iâll do it myself.â
âHow can that be? Youâre Linâs woman. I have to pour you this cup of wine.â
Gu Jingshuâs face was red, and her heart was pounding. It was a good feeling to be misunderstood.
Lin Yi knew that Qin Han was up to no good when he saw the sly smile on his face.
However, he was too lazy to pursue the matter.
He helped Gu Jingshu to fill up half a glass, then raised his glass and said.
âOld Lin is my good friend. You guys came here today to give me face. In the future, whenever you mention Lin Yiâs name, all of your meals will be free!â
The Gu family members were speechless!
As long as one mentioned Lin Yiâs name, all of their meals would be free. This was a huge deal!
After a toast, Qin Han patted Lin Yi on the shoulder. âOld Lin, you have a guest here. I wonât disturb you anymore. Order whatever you want.â
âAlright, go do your thing. Donât worry about us.â
Qin Han left after saying goodbye, but he gave Lin Yi a meaningful look as he left.
Lin Yi had goosebumps all over his body.
What the hell was he up to again?
Qin Han left, and the room was completely silent. The atmosphere was extremely awkward.
Qiao Zihao was so nervous that he wanted to die.
âUm, donât look at me,â Qiao Zihao said awkwardly. âIt was just a misunderstanding. I didnât expect Lin Yi to have such a big reputation.â
Gu Jingshu rolled her eyes at Qiao Zihao and cursed in her heart.
âThere are many things you didnât expect!â
âAlright, letâs not talk about anything else.â Gu Jianguo said. âJingshu, Lin Yiâs plate is empty. Can you cook something for him?â
Because of Qin Han, the Gu familyâs attitude towards Lin Yi had dramatically changed.
Although they did not say anything, they had already dismissed Qiao Zihao.
Although Lin Yiâs family background was not as good as Qiao Zihaoâs, his relationship with Qin Han was so good that he could do no wrong in the future.
âIâm not eating anymore. Iâm done eating.â
Lin Yi was a little absent-minded. He kept fiddling with his phone because Qin Han had sent him a WeChat message.
Qin Han, âOld Lin, Iâve observed it. The woman sitting next to you should still be a virgin. Iâve created an opportunity for you. Weâll hit a home run tonight.â
Lin Yi, âHmm? What are you talking about?â
Lin Yi could guess that Gu Jingshu was still a virgin, but what opportunity did Qin Han create?
Qin Han, âDidnât I just pour that woman a glass of wine? I added a little seasoning during the process. No side effects too, so itâs really exciting!â
Lin Yi, âF*ck! Youâre really bad at this!â
Lin Yi finally understood what was going on. No wonder he wanted to pour Gu Jingshu a glass of wine. Itâs because he was waiting for this.
âWell, since Lin Yi isnât eating, letâs go,â Qiao Zihao said.
He did not want to stay here for another minute after what had happened!
It was too f*cking awkward!
âAlright, weâre almost done eating,â Jianguo said.
âUncle and Auntie wonât be leaving tonight, right?â Lin Yi asked, âIâll arrange a place for them to stay.â
Lin Yi was also in a hurry to leave because Jingshuâs face was red. Something was wrong.
What the hell did that son of a b*tch Qin Han put in there?!
How did it work so well??
âLin Yi, I wonât trouble you with this. Iâll arrange everything for uncle and Auntie,â Qiao Zihao said.
He had lost so much face today. If he did not find a way to restore his dignity, then he would not stand a chance in front of Jingshu!
He had to prepare his own place!
âDirector Qiao, let Lin Yi make the arrangements,â Jingshu said.
It was obvious that Jingshu did not want to have anything to do with Qiao Zihao anymore.
âItâs just a place to stay. It doesnât matter who makes the arrangements. Besides, I know a hotel thatâs pretty good.â
âCould the hotel youâre thinking of be the Peninsula Hotel?â Lin Yi asked.
âPeninsula Hotel?â Gu Jingwu was surprised.
âAs far as I know, the Peninsula Hotel is a super five-star hotel. It even has a ranking in Zhong Hai!â
âThatâs right, Iâm talking about the Peninsula Hotel.â Lin Yi said with a smile.
âNo way, such a good hotel? I can brag about it when I go back.â
Gu Jingwu was so excited that he could not figure out what was going on. âDad, Mom, letâs go to the Peninsula Hotel.â
âYes, yes, yes, letâs go to the Peninsula Hotel,â Qiao Zihao continued. âActually, my first thought was to go to the Peninsula Hotel. The two of us wanted to go together.â
Qiao Zihao felt his heart bleeding when he said that.
With their status, they wanted to find a three-star hotel to stay in, but Lin Yi wanted to build a five-star Peninsula Hotel!
If they did not say that, they would really be outclassed!
With the size of the Peninsula Hotel, three rooms would cost at least 7,000 dollars!
Fortunately, he was a member, so it should be cheaper.
Otherwise, he would lose even more.
Lin Yi smiled. This Qiao Zihao was really something. Why did he have to pretend to be wealthy?
âAlright then. Weâre new here, so weâll listen to your arrangements.â Gu Jianguo said with a smile.
After leaving the barbeque shop, Qiao Zihao led the way.
âUncle, Auntie, get in the car. Iâll drive you.â
âDirector Qiao, itâs getting late. You should go back. I wonât trouble you,â Jingshu said.
âYes, yes, yes. Just take Brother-in-lawâs car,â Jingwu said.
âJingshu, look at Little Wu. He said heâd take my car. Let me drive you.â
âWait, donât misunderstand. Iâm not talking about you, Iâm talking about Lin Yi. Donât flatter yourself.â
