âWang Weisi, stop spouting nonsense!â
Before Lin Yi could speak, Bai Jing stepped forward and said,
âI have nothing to do with you. Donât slander my character here!â
âDonât pretend to be innocent in front of me.â Wang Weisi said disdainfully.
âYou knew that my mother was the director, so you deliberately seduced me. After knowing me for less than two days, you went to the hotel with me. Do you need me to say these things out loud?â
Wang Weisi was not a kind person either. He said everything as it was.
âBrother Lin, I admit that I was in the wrong about Brother Wu and your sister. Iâm also convinced that my stabbing was deserved, but this woman is really not good. Other than being close to me, a few of my buddies have also slept with her and she even fooled around with a few foreigners. In short, sheâs very indecent. If Brother Wu gets together with her, itâll be a huge loss.â
Hearing this, Wang Cuipingâs expression changed.
If she had such an indecent private life, he definitely could not accept her.
âSister, donât listen to her nonsense. Heâs slandering my daughter. My daughter is innocent and has never done such things.â
No personal connections remain in bureaucratic organizations.
Liu Yawen had already been fired, so Zhao Li was no longer afraid of her. Thus, her words were very direct.
âWeâll have to think about this properly. Letâs call it a day. Letâs both go back and think about it,â Wang Cuiping said vaguely, indirectly rejecting this matter.
âAunt, didnât we have a good talk before this?â Bai Jing said.
âWhy harp on the past? The past is the past, and the present is the present. If the two of us get together, things will definitely work out.â
After seeing how powerful Lin Yi was, Bai Jing discarded her previous request.
Her first priority was to be with Wu Feiyue.
Everything else could come in due time.
âAnd our daughter Jingjingâs qualifications are evident. If this were in the past, it would require a grand wedding procession, a lawful marriage, and multiple rounds of matchmaking. Now, let alone other conditions, you still refuse to agree!â exclaimed Zhao Li.
âDonât yell at my mom,â Lin Yi said.
âIâm telling you, a grand wedding procession is meant for noble ladies, a lawful marriage is for virtuous and perfect individuals. With the traditional matchmaking procedures, they seek virtuous and exemplary qualities. With your daughterâs character, who could she possibly be matched with?â
Lin Yiâs voice was powerful and resounding. It seemed to make a sound when it fell to the ground, making the Bai family freeze on the spot, not daring to say another word.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Wu Tianfu walked over. âMr. Lin, do you need me to help you deal with this?â
Lin Yi waved his hand impatiently. âGet rid of these unrelated people. My head hurts when I see them.â
âGot it, Mr. Lin. Iâll deal with them now.â
Facing the others, Wu Tianfu changed his expression and whispered, âMr. Lin has already ordered you to leave. Do you still want to stay here?â
âI- Iâm leaving now.â
Bai Yongjun said in a trembling voice. Then, he pulled Zhao Li and Bai Jing away in a hurry, not daring to stay for a second longer.
The Wang family members also bowed repeatedly and left the orphanage.
After the unrelated people left, Wang Cuiping held her forehead.
âI thought she was a good girl. I didnât expect her to be like this. I was really wrong. â
Lin Yi and Wu Feiyue looked at each other. The former went forward to comfort her.
âThis is expected, so donât even think about setting up another blind date for my brother. Let him take care of himself. â
âYou young people are too messy. I wonât care about you anymore. Do whatever you want.â
âMom, where are you going?â Lin Yi asked as Wang Cuiping left.
âItâs already noon. I have to go cook.â
âAlright, Iâm starving.â
That afternoon, Lin Yi didnât go anywhere and stayed in the orphanage.
Because the matters in Yangcheng had been settled and he planned to return to
Zhonghai tomorrow, he spent the rest of his time accompanying Wang Cuiping and Zhao Quanfu.
The next morning, Lin Yi put on his clothes and left for the airport after eating.
Originally, Wang Cuiping wanted him to stay for a few more days, but since Lin Yi mentioned Ji Qingyan, she didnât say anything and even urged him to go back quickly.
After getting off the plane, Ji Qingyan came over to pick her up.
She didnât care that there were people around and gave Lin Yi a big hug.
Thinking about it carefully, it had been more than ten days since they last met. It would be a lie to say that he didnât miss her.
The two of them drove to the office. Along the way, they chatted about what had happened during the Lunar New Year. They chatted all the way to Ji Qingyanâs office, but they did not even finish their conversation then. They were acting as if they would not have the chance to talk about it the next day if they did not talk about it today.
When they arrived at the office, Ji Qingyan poured a glass of water for Lin Yi and asked sweetly,
âMr. Lin, do you have any plans for the new year?â
âFarming. Thatâs the top priority right now.â
âWhat about the companyâs development? Do you have any plans about that?â Ji
Qingyan asked.
âDuring the Lunar New Year, Yuanyuan talked to me about this matter.â
âShe must have been criticizing me like crazy, right?â Lin Yi replied.
Ji Qingyan laughed heartily, âI see that you understand Yuanyuan better than I do.â
âAs long as she opens her mouth, I know what crap sheâs going to spew. Itâs probably nothing good,â he retorted.
âYou canât say that. She did offer many constructive suggestions and even mentioned striving to make Lingyun Group one of the Fortune Global 500 companies,â Ji Qingyan replied.
âBut this year, the photolithography machine project is about to take shape. This will be a good time to show off.â
âGood luck, Mr. Lin.
âSure thing.â
That night, Lin Yi booked a place and had a candlelight dinner with Ji Qingyan before going back to rest.
The next morning, seeing that Lin Yi was about to leave after putting on his clothes, Ji Qingyan asked,
âArenât you going to Happiness Village? Why are you dressed so handsomely?â Lin Yi glanced at Ji Qingyan unhappily.
âYou donât think that those young wives in the village will pose a threat to you, do you?â
Hearing Lin Yiâs words, Ji Qingyanâs waist trembled in amusement.
âWhat I mean is that you donât have to wear such clean clothes when farming.
You can just wear casual clothes.â
âIâm not going to Happiness Village immediately. I have to go to the corporation,â Lin Yi said.
âIâm not good at farming, so I have to ask He Yuanyuan for help.â
âThen you have to show some attitude. Otherwise, she will take this opportunity to hit you while youâre down. â
âYou know her best.â Lin Yi said.
âThatâs why I took out the box of expired chocolates from the fridge. I was going to give it to her.â
âYouâre really something. Why canât you bring something nice along when asking for help?â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âHe Yuanyuanâs stomach canât enjoy high-end stuff. Expired items are most suitable for her..
