“What is it?”
“Recently, there’s a high-speed rail project in Zhonghai. My family wants to partic.i.p.ate.” Xiao Bing chuckled. “You’re the local emperor of Zhonghai. Can you help us?”
“Huh? Who gave me this nickname?” Lin Yi said, “Won’t this name attract haters?”
“Why so cautious? Isn’t it the truth?” Xiao Bing said.
“In the entire Zhonghai, who would dare to provoke you?”
“Don’t say that. There are many awesome people in Zhonghai. If news of this nickname gets out, I’ll be targeted.”
Xiao Bing chuckled. “This is a small matter. The main topic is this project. Brother Lin, can you help me?”
“Who’s in charge of this project?”
“Secretary Liang of the Zhonghai Communist Party, can you speak to her?”
Lin Yi was a little surprised. He didn’t expect Liang Ruoxu to be in charge of this.
Logically speaking, she should not be in charge of such matters since she had been transferred to her current position.
It was probably a project of Huarun Group. In addition, the leaders of Zhonghai knew about her relationship with Shen Shuyi, so they let her be in charge of it.
If it was done well, it would be considered a political achievement.
“I’ll try. I’ll help you push for it.”
“Thank you, Brother Lin.”
With that, Xiao Bing hugged Lin Yi’s face and gave him a big kiss before skipping away.
After sending Xiao Bing off, Lin Yi went to take a shower and video called Ji Qingyan. They chatted for a while before going to bed.
The next morning, before Lin Yi could wake up, Xiao Bing ran over again. She was wearing a tight-fitting dress, and her figure was exquisite, wild, and s.e.xy.
Because the hotel belonged to their family, as long as she wanted to, she could enter any room she pleased.
“Brother Lin, it’s already past eight. Hurry up and get up. I brought you breakfast. They’re all Yuhang’s specialty delicacies. Try them.”
“It’s only eight o’clock. You’re too early.”
“You’re in Yuhang. As a team member, I have to serve the leader well.” Xiao Bing winked and said.
“Remember to promote me in the future.”
“In a place like the Central Guards Brigade, there’s no need to hunt for a promotion. As long as you can survive a few years, your position will naturally rise.”
“Really? It’s not that bad, is it?”
“In the short few months since I joined the Central Guards Brigade, the number of deaths has exceeded 20. There are only a few people left in the Central Guards Brigade. You can calculate the ratio yourself.”
“It’s fine. I can’t back out now,” Xiao Bing said with a smile.
Lin Yi, who was washing up, turned around and glanced at Xiao Bing.
“You’re the only child in the Xiao family.”
“How do you know? Did you look up my information?”
“I guessed.”
Lin Yi said casually.
If there were other men in the Xiao family, they probably wouldn’t have let Xiao Bing take such a dangerous path.
If it really worked out, the Xiao family would still have a smooth life for the next 50 years. If there was a mistake, the Xiao family’s future would be bleak.
After washing up, Lin Yi started eating breakfast. Before he could take a few bites, the landline on the bedside table rang.
“It’s probably a call from the front desk. I’ll take it for you.”
Xiao Bing walked to the bedside and picked up the phone for Lin Yi.
“Are you Mr. Lin Yi?”
“I’m Xiao Bing. If you have something to say, just tell me.”
“President Xiao, it’s like this. There’s a guest in the lobby who wants to see Mr. Lin.”
“Yes?”
Xiao Bing muttered, “Did the other party say who they were?”
“The other party said his surname is Wei.”
“His surname is Wei?”
Xiao Bing’s expression became serious. She felt that this was unlikely to be a coincidence. It was very likely that this was Wei Jiahang’s elder brother, Wei Jialong!
“Alright, I understand.”
After hanging up, Xiao Bing returned to Lin Yi’s side.
“Why are you calling?”
“He said that someone with the surname Wei is looking for you downstairs. I think it’s Wei Jiahang’s elder brother, Wei Jialong.”
“He’s here so early?”
“The Wei family is a big family in Yuhang. All things considered, they’re even a little stronger than the Xiao family. Due to our relationship, it was probably easy for them to find out that you were staying here,” Xiao Bing said.
“Moreover, with their ability, I’m afraid you won’t be able to hide your ident.i.ty as the chairman of the Lingyun Group. They should know this too.”
“So be it. I wasn’t planning to hide anything.”
Lin Yi ate the soup dumplings and soy milk and said in a m.u.f.fled voice.
“Since he’s already here, let him come up. Don’t make us look like we’re afraid of them.”
“Got it.”
Xiao Bing called the front desk again and instructed them to settle the matters. Then, she opened the door a crack and continued eating breakfast with Lin Yi.
A few minutes later, the door was pushed open. Three people came in, two men and a woman.
The person standing in front of him was tall and at least 1.9 meters tall. His appearance was somewhat similar to Wei Jiahang, but he was not as arrogant as him. His expression was serious and his att.i.tude was calm.
Lin Yi guessed that he might be Wei Jiahang’s brother, Wei Jialong.
However, the remaining two people did not have the same calmness.
After entering the room, she kept sizing up Lin Yi, her eyes filled with vigilance.
The slightly plump man was called Wei Zhe, and he was Wei Jialong’s cousin.
The other was Wei Yu, Wei Zhe’s younger sister. She was Wei Jialong’s younger cousin.
Because the Wei family was controlled by Wei Guangxian, their father did not have much real power.
Therefore, they had always followed Wei Jialong’s lead.
“Are you President Lin? Let me introduce myself. My name is Wei Jialong.”
Hearing the way Wei Jialong addressed him, Lin Yi guessed that just as Xiao Bing said, the Wei family already knew his ident.i.ty.
The Wei family were indeed quite impressive when it came to their information network.
“Why are you looking for me?” Lin Yi said lightly.
“What happened last night was a misunderstanding. I hope you can ask for my brother’s release.”
“Misunderstanding?” Lin Yi raised his eyebrows.
“Is it a misunderstanding just because you say so? I don’t think it’s a misunderstanding.”
“Don’t go overboard. My brother is already here. You shouldn’t push it!”
“Shut up!”
Wei Jialong snorted coldly. He wasn’t angry, as if Lin Yi’s att.i.tude was within his expectations.
“President Lin, I know that your Lingyun Group is in the limelight now. In terms of wealth alone, our Wei family is a little inferior, but we’re all in the same circle. Let’s talk nicely. There’s no need to be so ruthless. Leave us a way out so that we can meet nicely in the future. There’s no need to make such a fuss.”
“Why didn’t you think about this when you were bullying others?” Lin Yi picked up a bun and said slowly.
“You guys are no easy customers either. You all understand the rule that you should stand tall when you’re beaten up. When you’re strong, you bully others, and when you’re weaker, you reason with them. But if reasoning worked, why would we need a military?”
Wei Jialong frowned, as if he did not expect to run into a wall so soon.
“President Lin, don’t you want to give me some face?”
