âHuh?
âWhat did you say? This hotel is yours?â
Sugar stared at Lin Yi with her beautiful eyes, as if she had heard something unbelievable.
âIf it wasnât my hotel, do you think I would bring you to such an expensive place? My money didnât fall from the sky.â
âThis...â
Sugar did not refute. Lin Yiâs words made sense. After all, the Peninsula Hotelâs price list was right there.
âIf the Peninsula Hotel is yours, then the sports car from yesterday...â
âItâs mine too.â Lin Yi looked at Sugar. âYou donât think I borrowed that car, do you?â
âYouâre so close to Qin Han, so I thought it was his car.â
âWhy would I borrow it? He even asked to borrow my car to drive.â
Suger was shocked.
The famous Qin Han asked to borrow Lin Yiâs car?
How rich did he have to be? Why didnât he show his true colours at school before this?
âYouâre already so rich, so why are you still working at school?â
âTo experience life, why else? Should I just wait to grow old and die?â
âYouâre actually here just to experience life?!â
Sugar was surprised and even a little embarrassed.
Judging from the current situation, Lin Yiâs identity as a second generation rich kid was all but confirmed.
He came here to have fun, but she was always picking on him.
This was too much.
Lin Yi did not think too much about it and got into the car with Sugar.
First, she had to go to school to work, and second, he had to go through the resignation procedures.
He had already started her new career, so there was no need for him to continue doing work at the school committee anymore.
Sitting in Lin Yiâs passenger seat, Suger finally understood why so many women liked being in the passenger seat of sports cars.
It was not that it was comfortable, but they received the kind of envious gaze that could provide unprecedented sense of vanity.
âThank you for last night.â
âWhatâs there to thank me for? I just didnât think it was worth it.â
âI just feel angry, like thereâs a breath in my stomach that I havenât vented yet. Iâm still too calm. If Iâd known earlier, I wouldâve slapped the two of them. That way, Iâd have been able to vent my anger,â Sugar said indignantly.
âI was just having a casual meal, and I ran into him. Iâm so unlucky.â
Lin Yi smiled and did not say anything else. This woman was indeed a tigress.
He could not afford to offend her.
When the Koenigsegg drove onto the campus of the university, there were cries of surprise.
The men and women in the school were staring at him with their eyes wide open.
A school like this university did not have such a rich second generation. Who would drive a car worth more than 30 million to the school?
Lin Yi and Sugar got out of the car.
The girlsâ eyes all immediately fell on Lin Yi.
âNo way, this car is Teacher Linâs?â
âI used to think of him as a Prince Charming. I didnât expect him to be a god of wealth.â
âI really want to sit in the passenger seat of Teacher Linâs car. Itâs my fault that Iâm not as successful as Director Su.â
Hearing the studentsâ exclamations, Sugar looked at Lin Yi. âIâve been wanting to ask you something. Donât you have a sports car? Why did you drive a Shari to work instead? Itâs too unbecoming of your identity.â
âSchool is a place for learning. If I drove a supercar here, wouldnât I be too pretentious person? Do I look like such a high-profile person to you?â
âYouâre right.â Sugar nodded, agreeing with Lin Yiâs approach.
It was rare to see such humbleness from a rich second generation.
âThen why did you drive this car here today? Is it because you didnât have time to change cars?â
âIâm here to pack up my things and resign, so I donât care what kind of car I drive,â Lin Yi said.
âWhat did you say? You want to resign?â
Hearing this, Sugar raised his voice and looked at Lin Yi in confusion. âWhy do you want to resign?â
âDidnât I tell you before? I came here to experience life. Now that Iâve experienced it, itâs time for me to leave.â Lin Yi smiled.
âBesides, youâve always disliked me. Youâll be happy if I leave.â
Sugar remained silent, regretting her actions.
âLin Yi, Iâm sorry. I hope you can accept my apology.â
âIâm not that narrow-minded. Iâm just curious. Weâve never met before, so why were you always targeting me?â
Sugar hesitated for a moment, then told Lin Yi everything that happened a week ago in front of the barbecue shop.
âReally? Youâre calling me a scumbag because of that?â Lin Yi teased.
âIsnât that obvious?â Suger said sulkily. âBut now that I think about it, what I did was really extreme, so I apologize.â
âLet me be clear, I didnât do anything. That person was my friend. She was just drunk, but I definitely didnât do anything to her.â
âAnd I didnât go to the pharmacy to buy anything sinful. I bought the anti-alcohol medicine and some nutritional drinks. Think about it. With my looks and money, do you think I need to get a woman drunk to bring her to the hotel?â
âDo you believe that all I have to do is say the word, and all the female students in the university will line up to wait for me at the hotel?â
Sugar seemed to have been enlightened, and she seemed to sober up a lot.
Just as Lin Yi said, with his conditions, he really did not need to do such a thing.
Moreover, the woman he met that day was not exactly as beautiful as a fairy that he would do anything to get her. She had misunderstood him.
âAlso, think about it. The situation last night was very similar to seven days ago, right? You were also drunk and I sent you to the hotel. What did I do to you then?â
âWhat are you talking about?â Sugerâs face turned red. âI know I was wrong. Donât lower yourself to my level. Isnât this enough?â
âI told you Iâm not that petty. Letâs let bygones be bygones.â
âThen can you still take carry me in the game in the future?â
âHow? Youâre so weak. Who would dare to carry you? If it wasnât for you, Iâd be top ranked by now.â
âIâm a little weak, but donât talk about me like that.â Suger said in disdain.
âOh right, what are you going to do after you leave your job? Are you going to continue experiencing life?â
Lin Yi nodded. âIâm going to be an errand boy. Iâll be working free and easy.â
âNo way! A guy like you is going to be an errand boy? Thatâs beneath you.â
âYou donât understand the suffering of the human world.â
âI really donât understand.â Sugar smiled slyly. âBut since youâre going to be an errand boy, can I place an order with you in the future?â
âCan you not smile like that? Iâm just going to be an errand boy, why are you acting like that?â
Sugar laughed.
Then, Sugar took Lin Yi to the human resources department to complete the procedures, allowing him to official quit his job as the school committee secretary.
After quitting, Lin Yi went back to pack his things.
After learning of Lin Yiâs resignation, the people in the office were very reluctant to part with him.
However, Sugar did not reveal Lin Yiâs identity. After all, he did not want to be high-profile.
Song Jia also proposed inviting Lin Yi to dinner, but she was rejected.
They had met via a chance encounter. They could simply part in this way.
After packing up his things, Lin Yi had only just left the campus when he received a call from Zhao Qi.
âTeacher Lin, why did you quit your job? Is there something youâre not satisfied with? Tell me, Iâll stand up for you.â
âItâs not what you think,â Lin Yi said with a smile.
âI came to the university to experience life. Now that Iâve experienced it, itâs time for me to leave and prepare for a new job.â
âThen you donât have to quit your job, you can just take a temporary position. The school will still give you a higher salary. How about that?â
âIâll keep the honorary vice-principal position. If anything happens to the school, as long as I can do it, Iâll definitely help.â
Zhao Qi let out a heavy sigh of relief. âIn that case, thank you very much, Teacher Lin. On behalf of the 7,800 students of Zhonghai Normal University, Iâd like to express my heartfelt thanks to you.â
âYouâre welcome, Principal Zhao. Itâs all part of my duty.â
After a brief exchange with Zhao Qi, Lin Yi drove back to the Peninsula Hotel.
It was already noon, and he was ready to settle the next issue.
âYou have a new order, please pay attention to it.â
