âIâm embarrassed Miss Liang rolled up my pants for me,â Lin Yi said with a smile.
âIf youâre really so thin-skinned, you wouldnât have brought a piglet out to feed next to the Forbidden City. You really embarrassed me.â âHow can you compare the two? Itâs two different things.â
âI canât outtalk you.â
After tidying Lin Yiâs pants, Liang Ruoxu stood up. âI think it looks pretty good. Look in the mirror.â
Lin Yi nodded. â1 think so too. You have good taste.â
âDonât you realize who picked it?â
Liang Ruoxu was a little smug. She did not hide her thoughts at all.
âWait here. Iâll pay for it.â
Lin Yi stood on the spot with no intention of paying.
With Liang Ruoxuâs wealth, this amount of money was nothing to her.
By the time she finished buying the clothes, the sky was already dark.
Liang Ruoxu brought Lin Yi to an inconspicuous shop. Before they entered, they could smell the fragrance of meat.
âHotpot?â
Liang Ruoxu nodded. âYanjing hotpot is different from Zhonghaiâs. Although the environment is not great, it tastes really good. Let me bring you to try it.â
âHot pot is perfect in this weather.â
The two of them entered the hotpot restaurant one after another.
Immediately after, a Toyota Alphard stopped at the door, but no one got out. The car was fine, but the people in it were in a sorry state.
Two of them had bandages and casts on their bodies. They looked like they had just recovered from a serious illness.
One of them was Han Renping.
âBrother Han, how do you feel? You were the most seriously injured. You have to be careful.â
The person who spoke was sitting in the back row. His name was Zhao Zhenyu, and he had also participated in the fight at OT Bar.
However, his condition was better. His injuries were not serious.
Other than the two of them, there were two others in the car. Together, they were preparing to attack Lin Yi tonight.
However, the four of them werenât the only ones in the car.
Next to Han Renping sat a middle-aged man in his forties.
The manâs name was Li Siqiang. He was very thin and had big eyes. His cheekbones were prominent and there was a wisp of beard on his chin. He was half-bowed and looked out of place with the noble Han Renping. He looked like someone from another world.
âBrother Qiang, Iâve told you the details. The person I want to deal with is the man who went in just now,â Han Renping said.
âBut you must remember that you canât touch the woman beside him. If the two of them are together, leave him be. Donât attack unless heâs alone.â
Han Renping was very wary of Liang Ruoxuâs identity.
The Liang family was already very strong to begin with. Coupled with Shen
Shuyiâs support, the Liang familyâs strength was very prominent in Yanjing.
Han Renping would rather not deal with Lin Yi than accidentally hurt Liang Ruoxu.
There was also a reason why Han Renping asked Li Siqiang to come over.
Li Siqiang had carried out several murders, but because his methods were brilliant, he often managed to frame others.
Although the police had always wanted to arrest him, they did not have enough evidence. As a result, he was still alive and well after so many years.
So this time, Han Renping asked someone to hire him because he wanted him to cripple Lin Yi.
âNo problem. Have you brought the money?â Li Siqiang said. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYou should know my rates through the intermediary. A leg costs 500,000 yuan. Come and collect the money from me after itâs done.â
âI have another condition. If things donât go well, you need to arrange a getaway plan for me,â Li Siqiang said in a low voice.
âThatâs not a problem. With the Han familyâs connections, it can be done easily.â
âSure. â
Han Renping pointed out of the window with his chin. âDo you see that black Nissan? The person in the car is my friend. If youâre ready, drive that car away.â Li Siqiang glanced outside, then picked up a black box and got out of the car.
In a few minutes, the owner of the Nissan car returned to the Alphard.
âBrother Ping, are you done with the arrangements? There shouldnât be any problems, right?â
âLi Siqiang is different from us. Heâs really killed before. With him dealing with Lin Yi, nothing will go wrong,â Han Renping said.
âThe only worry is that Liang Ruoxu is always by his side. This is a little troublesome. I donât know when they will seperate.â
âFrom the looks of it, they might go to the hotel tonight. Itâs hard to say if he will have the chance to make a move.â
âThereâs nothing we can do if they really go to the hotel. Letâs take it slow.
There will be a chance.â
At the same time, Lin Yi and Liang Ruoxuâs orders were already on the table.
The steaming hotpot added some warmth to the slightly cold weather.
Although Liang Ruoxu came from a wealthy family, she was not as refined as Ji Qingyan.
In some aspects, she was even inferior to Li Chuhan and Wang Ying.
This was the difference between women in the north and south.
From Liang Ruoxuâs body, one could see a kind of bold and valiant beauty.
This was something rarely seen on Ji Qingyan and the others.
âDonât just eat meat. Try this frozen tofu and pickled vegetables. Itâs super delicious with the Yanjing broth.â
Lin Yi had eaten frozen tofu before, but this was the first time he had cooked pickled vegetables.
He felt that the taste was very good, and it was also very greasy.
âAre you going to the semiconductor summit forum tomorrow?â Lin Yi asked while eating.
âItâs not appropriate for me to go. You can go with my mother.â
âWhatâs inappropriate about it?â
âThe people attending the meeting tomorrow are all big shots in the industry. Many people know my identity. Itâs not appropriate for the two of us to appear together. We have to learn to avoid arousing suspicion, lest others think that weâre family and report me.â âSo what? Soon weâll be family.â
Liang Ruoxu picked up a few pieces of mutton and placed them in the pot. Then, he dipped them in the sauce in the bowl and said,
âI can turn a blind eye to your affairs, but can you give up on President Ji?â
Liang Ruoxuâs expression seemed nonchalant, but to the two of them, this was a fatal problem.
It was also a problem that he had to face.
It was unavoidable.
âI canât.â
Lin Yi answered without any hesitation.
Liang Ruoxuâs eating suddenly slowed down. She chewed two mouthfuls carefully, then picked up a few pieces of mutton and placed them in the pot. The water in the copper pot was boiling, but her heart gradually calmed down.
There were some things that could not be changed.
Being a step late had cost her true happiness.
âSince you canât give up, eat well. Get up early tomorrow and pick up my mother. Donât be late.â
Lin Yi picked up the chopsticks and looked around the copper pot. He picked up the mutton that Liang Ruoxu had put in, dipped it in the sauce a few times, and put it all into his mouth.
âI wonât give up on her, and I wonât give up on you either. Thatâs for sure. It wonât change no matter what..â
