“Don’t overthink it it,” Lin Yi said.
“In my heart, you’re all the same. Half of my life is hers, and the other half is yours.”
Liang Ruoxu’s beautiful eyes rolled as Lin Yi’s words. .h.i.t the nail on the head. She looked embarra.s.sed.
“You knew that half of it was mine, yet you were still so careless. Look at how badly injured you are. The doctor already said that it’s a blessing in disguise that you can even keep this arm. If the wound had been a little more angled, this arm would have been crippled.”
“But this injured half isn’t yours,” Lin Yi said.
“This half belongs to Ji Qingyan. Your half is still intact.”
With that, Lin Yi raised his other arm and showed Liang Ruoxu his muscles.
“I’m not bragging, but 1 can lift you up with one hand.”
“Even at this time, you’re still not serious.”
After being comforted by Lin Yi, Liang Ruoxu’s mood improved a lot.
“But this is the last time. Don’t go out and run around in the future.”
“Alright, 1’11 listen to you.”
Liang Ruoxu also knew that Lin Yi wouldn’t be controlled by anyone. He was only saying this to make him happy.
Ring ring ring!
At this moment, Liang Ruoxu’s phone rang.
It was a WeChat video from Shen Shuyi.
“Mom.”
“Are you still in Bingcheng? How’s Lin Yi’s condition?”
Liang Ruoxu turned the camera around, and Lin Yi waved his hand with a smile.
“Thank you for your concern, Aunt Shen. My injuries aren’t serious. I’ll recover in ten days to half a month.”
“1 heard that something happened to the w.a.n.g family. How did you deal with w.a.n.g Mian?”
“I killed that person called Lina. Then, w.a.n.g Mian made me cripple both his legs. He’ll have to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair.”
Shen Shuyi and Liang Ruoxu were not surprised at all. This was very much in line with Lin Yi’s style.
In reality, they had already guessed this outcome.
If he was unlucky, the one who would die would be Lin Yi.
The w.a.n.g family was heartless, so Lin Yi couldn’t be blamed for it.
“Has your whereabouts been discovered?”
“No, I erased all clues.” Lin Yi said.
“In other words, only the w.a.n.g family knows that I was the one who did this. No one else knows.”
“Alright, I understand the situation,” Shen Shuyi said.
“Rest well and don’t think about anything else. The Liang family and Elder Lu will deal with the subsequent issues for you.”
“Thank you, Aunt Shen.” Lin Yi didn’t stand on ceremony. “Oh right, there’s something else 1 need to tell you.”
“Recently, the w.a.n.g family is discussing an imported wood deal. Aunt Shen should know about it, right?”
“I do,” Shen Shuyi said.
“This is with regards to internal economic circulation. Their Poly Group is planning to expand domestically and monopolize the domestic furniture and timber industries. Huarun Group was a step behind and lost the initiative to them.”
Lin Yi was very surprised. He thought that this was just an ordinary deal, but he didn’t expect the w.a.n.g family to be planning for the future.
“If that’s the case, 1 did a good deed by sheer chance,” Lin Yi said.
“I’ve sent someone to hijack this deal. I reckon there will be a result soon. The Lingyun Group doesn’t have any business in this area. After the negotiation, we’ll need Aunt Shen’s help to handle it.”
“You hijacked the deal?”
Shen Shuyi and Liang Ruoxu were both surprised.
Why was everything he did so unexpected?
“I just wanted to slap the w.a.n.g family’s face, so I didn’t consider the cost in this matter. The other party isn’t a fool, so they’re naturally willing to cooperate with us. Old Qi told me that we’re almost done with the negotiations. We’ll have an answer in a few days.”
“You brat…” Shen Shuyi said with a smile.
“But your subordinates are indeed not bad. They’re talented.”
“It’s their honor to be praised by Aunt Shen.”
“Alright, stop flattering me. Rest well and don’t think about anything else,” Shen Shuyi said.
“After we intercept that project, we’ll just handle it secretly. However, if your Lingyun Group wants to make a big deal out of this matter, it’s best if everyone knows about it. That shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
“No problem, of course. That’s what I was thinking as well.”
“I knew you would consider this step.” Shen Shuyi combed her hair. “Alright, I have something else to do. I’ll hang up first.”
“Aunt Shen, go ahead.”
After finishing her business, Shen Shuyi hung up the phone, which made Liang Ruoxu extremely excited.
“Why did you intercept the w.a.n.g family’s business?”
“To embarra.s.s them. It’s also a form of insurance for myself,” Lin Yi said.
“In the past, they always had these small fights in the dark. Other than the higher-ups, no one knew that the w.a.n.g family had fallen, so on the surface, they still did whatever they wanted.”
“In this operation, both sides have shed all pretense of cordiality and publicized the conflict.”
“When this project is made public, everyone will know that Lingyun Group stole Poly Group’s business. If something happens to me at this juncture, the pressure of public opinion will favor us. The w.a.n.g family will fall into a disadvantageous situation and won’t dare to act rashly.”
Liang Ruoxu deeply admired Lin Yi’s move. Everything was carefully considered.
Just now, his mother had asked Lin Yi to publicize this matter on the phone. She must have thought of this too and reminded Lin Yi.
The two sides were on the same wavelength.
Liang Ruoxu pouted. ‘Why didn’t I think of that earlier?’
“What are you thinking like a fool over there?” she asked.
“You’re the one who’s a fool.”
To avoid embarra.s.sing herself, Liang Ruoxu got up and called the nurse to change Lin Yi’s dressing.
In order to avoid embarra.s.sment, Liang Ruoxu stood up and called the nurse in to change Lin Yi’s dressing.
Not long after, the items ordered by Liang Ruoxu arrived.
Then, Lin Yi called Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che in. The four of them had a sumptuous meal in the hospital.
After dinner, the four of them chatted about the current situation.
Although there were dangers everywhere, overall, it was still very optimistic.
With the w.a.n.g family’s current level, they would definitely take action. However, the final outcome of the discussion was that they would deal with whatever came their way.
Therefore, the atmosphere during the meal was still very harmonious.
But other than that, something strange happened while they were eating.
When these women were alone with Lin Yi, every one of them would worry about his health.
However, when they came together, the situation changed.
The topic of discussion changed from Lin Yi to clothes, shoes, and cosmetics.
They even agreed to go shopping together the next day.
If the nurse hadn’t come in in time, Lin Yi would probably have had to clean up the leftovers on the table himself.
The girls claimed it was for “exercise,” but in reality, it’s to prevent fascia and muscles from sticking together.
Seeing the actions of the three women, Lin Yi felt like he was in for a rough time.
Although the atmosphere was harmonious at the moment, Lin Yi had never imagined.
The prelude to a crisis was slowly unfolding..
