“Huh?”
There was still some spaghetti in her mouth. She puffed up her cheeks and looked at Lin Yi in confusion.
“Brother Lin, you’re so naughty. You’re teasing me.”
Li Sijin’s face was flushed red. She lowered her head and ate the noodles on her plate, not daring to look at Lin Yi for a long time.
About an hour later, everyone finished their meal and returned to their rooms to rest.
There were also some people who wanted to explore and check out the night scenery of Bingcheng. Li Sijin didn’t stop them.
She gave them a few reminders, but did not say much.
After returning to his room, Lin Yi chatted with Ji Qingyan for a while before going to the bathroom to wash up.
At that moment, a WeChat message from Liang Ruoxu arrived.
“Why is it that every time I send a video call, you’re always showering? Is it intentional?”
“What reason would I have to do it intentionally?” Lin Yi said while washing his hair.
“We’ve kissed and touched, so there’s no need for this.”
“I really want to rush over and kick you.”
“Don’t be so violent. Let’s talk nicely.” Lin Yi turned around. “Look at my abs and v-lines. Don’t they look good?”
“I’m too lazy to look.”
“This is why love fades, right?”
“I’ve figured something out, you’re just an attention seeker!”
“Don’t say that, I just have a bit of talent.”
“I can’t be bothered with you.”
Liang Ruoxu rolled her eyes at Lin Yi. “How’s the situation over there? Have you brought enough clothes?”
“I’ve got everything packed. 1 even bought a pair of cotton pants online, but it turns out they don’t offer free shipping in the Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Zhonghai regions. It’s really frustrating. I think your relevant department should do something about this.”
Liang Ruoxu was both angry and amused at the same time. There was really nothing she could do about this clown.
“Did anyone receive you after you got off the plane?”
“w.a.n.g Yunjiang has a cla.s.smate here. He’s the director of the research inst.i.tute. He came to pick us up.”
“That’s good.”
Liang Ruoxu combed her hair. “I asked about the situation in Bingcheng just now. Director Chen from the research inst.i.tute has gone on a business trip to Fengtian and will only be back tomorrow. When the time comes, I’ll get him to look for you. Just tell me if you have any requests. He’ll cooperate fully with you.”
“Thank you, Secretary Liang. I’ll definitely repay you when we return to Zhonghai.”
“You’re always looking for opportunities to take advantage of me.”
“Sigh, don’t mock me,” Lin Yi said.
“There’s indeed a st.i.tch, but I’m not a brainless needle. What other kinds of needles have you seen before me? You can’t attack me baselessly like this.”
“Scram, scram, scram.” Liang Ruoxu was so amused that his face turned red. “By the way, 1 have something to ask you. Did you meet anyone special over there?”
“Someone special?” Liang Ruoxu’s words alerted Lin Yi.
He had just arrived in the northeast. How could he have met such a strange person?
If there was anything strange, it would be Mr. Sun, who had been so pretentious earlier.
“I didn’t. Did something happen?”
“No.” Liang Ruoxu combed her hair. “The main thing is that the northeast is the w.a.n.g family’s territory. You know the relationship between the two sides. I’m afraid that they will find outa about this and cause trouble for you.”
“w.a.n.g Mian’s family?”
Liang Ruoxu nodded. “Although they’re no longer on top, it’s still one of the top five families in Yanjing. It’s on par with the Liang family. Don’t disregard them.”
“Alright, I understand.”
“Then you can fend for yourself.”
Liang Ruoxu hung up the phone cleanly. Lin Yi continued showering and went back to sleep.
Half an hour after Lin Yi left the airport, a Bombardier 6000 landed in Bingcheng.
The person walking in front was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was muscular and wore a black windbreaker. There was some stubble on his chin. From afar, one could feel a strong sense of oppression.
The man’s name was Sun Manlou. He was the boss of the underground forces in the three provinces of Northeast Huaxia. Some people who were familiar with him were used to calling him the Northeast King. His glorious deeds were also the topic of conversation for countless people after drinking.
There were two other people beside him.
One of them was about the same age as him, but he was wearing a suit. Wearing a suit in this weather could be said to be gentlemanly and cold.
However, the protruding beer made him lose his poise.
The man’s name was Liu Dianjun and he was from Yanjing. In order to discuss a business deal, Sun Manlou brought him to Bingcheng.
The other one was slightly younger. He was in his thirties and was also wearing a black plush windbreaker. He looked a little similar to Sun Manlou.
The man’s name was Sun Manjia, and he was Sun Manlou’s younger brother.
All these years, he had remained by his brother’s side and had become the second-in-command of the organization.
“I can finally get off and move around.” Liu Dianjun twisted his body. He had been in the sky for nearly an hour, so he was not used to it.
“I didn’t expect this little surprise either,” Sun Manlou said.
“But it’s just a minor issue. People from out of town may not know the rules, so we can teach them how to behave.”
“I know your methods,” Liu Dianjun said.
“Things are different now, with the government cracking down. We just need to make our point, no need to go overboard. They’re not outsiders.”
“Haha, I get what you mean,” Sun Manlou lit a cigarette.
“But when you’re in the Northeast, you still have to follow my Sun Manlou’s way of doing things. We should have a chat.”
“Brother, I’ve already asked someone to investigate.”
Sun Manlou nodded. “Let’s go. Let’s find a place to play first. As for other matters, we’ll deal with them when we have time.”
That night, in order to receive Liu Dianjun, Sun Manlou arranged for a roasted whole lamb meal. Then, they went to the bathing center to play. It was not until one o’clock in the morning that they went back to rest.
“Brother, there’s news from the airport,” Sun Man’s family said in the presidential suite of the hotel.
“Who was it?”
“He’s not a simple person.” Sun Manjia said.
“A Gulfstream G650 landed in front of us. It’s owned by Lingyun Group of Zhonghai, but only the president of the company has the right to use it.”
“Lingyun Group…”
Sun Manlou muttered, “The company that developed the photolithography machine?”
“Yes, them.” Sun Manjia said.
“Because it broke the monopoly of the chip industry, this company has a good reputation among the people. It has a high influence in the semiconductor field.”
“Could the person on the plane be the president of Lingyun Group?”
“Well…”
Sun Manjia hesitated for a few seconds. “It should be the case, but it doesn’t feel like it. It’s hard to tell.”
“If it is, then it is. If it isn’t, then it isn’t. What do you mean when you say ‘it’s hard to tell’?”
“From the surveillance footage, it does look like it. However, there seems to be a group of villagers beside him. After leaving the airport, they even boarded a bus. This doesn’t seem like something a president of a big company should do, so I’m a little unsure.”
“Huh? Are you sure?”
“Yes, I’m sure. 1 watched the group of farmers on the tapes. They boarded a bus after.” Sun Manlou said.
“Also, I’ve checked that bus. It belongs to Bingcheng Agricultural Research Inst.i.tute.”
Sun Manlou frowned, feeling a little confused.
“By the way, didn’t you meet a woman recently who works at the Agricultural Research Inst.i.tute?”
“Don’t mention that b*tch. She’s so shameless.” Sun Manjia lit a cigarette and said.
“If she makes me angry one day, I’ll just drug her and let you have some fun first.”
“Do as you see fit,” Sun Manlou said indifferently.
“Let’s confirm who the person who dared to land before me is first. If it’s really that person called Lin Yi, you should invite him over. 1 really want to meet him.”
“I have a feeling that’ll be tough,” Sun Manjia said.
“He knew who you are, yet he landed ahead of you. People like that certainly won’t be obedient.”
