Chapter 1488: Worry
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Hmph, you wish.”
Lin Yi walked up to Ji Qingyan and ma.s.saged her shoulders.
“What are you busy with? There are so many doc.u.ments on the table.”
“I have a company under me that has the rights to purchase timber. The Lingyun Group’s project this time was purchased in the name of this company. I’m handling the procedures for the transfer of shares and am preparing to transfer them to your names as a fully-owned subsidiary.”
“So that’s what’s going on.”
“Yueyue is getting married in a week or so. As her brother, are you ready?”
“It’s not like I’m getting married. What’s there to prepare?”
“Aren’t you going to say anything at her wedding?”
“It’s not right for me to steal the limelight. You should go.”
“This kind of thing only happens to parents. If you’re her elder brother, how can you ask her sister-in-law to go on stage to speak?”
“Then let my mother and the other two go. I won’t join in the fun.”
“By the way, didn’t you say that you would give Yue Yue a villa? I’ve already viewed it. We’ve prepared the property deed and everything. Go and check it out. If you are okay with it, you can just pay up.”
“Then I’ll buy it when I go back in a few days. It’ll be fine as long as they can get the house on their wedding day.”
“Alright.” Ji Qingyan nodded.
“Wait for me for a while. I’m almost done. 1’11 be joining Yuanyuan in the afternoon, then we can go shopping. Otherwise, we won’t have anything to wear to the wedding.”
Lin Yi raised an eyebrow at her. “Are you sure you won’t have anything to wear?”
“No, no more…” Ji Qingyan felt uncomfortable under Lin Yi’s gaze.
“Putting aside the clothes at home, there must be more than twenty sets of clothes in your office closet alone.”
“Well…”
Ji Qingyan looked embarra.s.sed. “That’s all in the past. We’ll have to wear new clothes to the wedding.”
“Children from rich families are indeed different,” Lin Yi said.
“I remember one time when my mother took me to a wedding. I wore my school uniform there.”
“If you want to compare, I’ve been driving a Maserati worth more than a million yuan for so many years, but look at you. Your garage at home is full, right?”
“Let’s not talk about anything else. Just that La Voiture Noire alone is worth 120 million.”
“Uh… Let’s change the topic. I didn’t say that you wouldn’t be allowed to buy anything.” Lin Yi chuckled.
“But this is clearly a private occasion. Why are you bringing He Yuanyuan along?”
“Yuanyuan said that she wants to go too. She wants to bask in the joy.”
“She’s already with Gao. What’s there to be bask for?”
“She said that she wants to bask in the joy of the second spring.” Ji Qingyan smiled and said.
“A few days ago, when we were eating together, I heard from Gao Zongyuan that they seemed to be going to support Ning Yue.”
“I heard about this. Old Qin mentioned it to me before.”
“Isn’t that clear enough? Old Gao is going, so Yuanyuan will definitely be going too. Naturally, she’ll want to buy some clothes,” Ji Qingyan said. “Don’t overreact.”
“I don’t object to her buying clothes, but with her character, she must be using company funds to buy clothes!”
“Well…”
Ji Qingyan was powerless to retort because Yuanyuan might genuinely do such a thing.
More than an hour later, He Yuanyuan took the initiative to come to Chaoyang Group.
“Eh, Boss, why are you back?”
“I was going to ask you. What are you doing here?”
“I’m going shopping with my senior.”
“Didn’t you guys have an appointment at two o’clock? There’s still an hour until then.”
“I’m here for lunch.”
Looking at He Yuanyuan’s face, Lin Yi gave her a thumbs up.
“Awesome.”
He Yuanyuan arrived, and not long after, Ji Qingyan finished her work. The three of them went out for lunch before heading to Henglong Plaza.
They spent most of the afternoon shopping. Ji Qingyan chose a blue fishtail skirt, paired with leggings and high heels. He Yuanyuan bought a knee-length skirt and planned to pair it with thick black stockings. She also picked up quite a few items of jewelry.
Lin Yi, who was carrying their bags behind them, could only sigh in resignation.
She wasn’t going there to attend the wedding. She was obviously going there to steal the limelight.
Halfway through, Gao Zongyuan called and told He Yuanyuan to buy whatever she wanted since all of it was on his card. In reality, she was using the company’s money.
She was spending the money herself, but she had forced Gao Zongyuan to play along.
In the evening, after finishing their shopping and hearing the news of Lin Yi’s return, Qin Han arranged a welcome dinner at his barbecue restaurant.
However, he had learned his lesson this time and did not arrange for any other girls to join. They ate very simply.
“I’ve been shopping all afternoon. I’m exhausted.”
Upon returning home, Ji Qingyan took off her high heels and threw herself onto the sofa, completely disregarding her image.
“Lin Yi, can you ma.s.sage my legs?” Ji Qingyan asked weakly.
“I can’t.”
“Mr. Lin.”
“I can’t.”
“Hubby…”
“Coming.”
Lin Yi sat on the sofa and grabbed Ji Qingyan’s leg, ma.s.saging her.
Although he could not take any further action for the time being, these two legs were enough for him to entertain himself for a while.
Perhaps it was because Lin Yi was too good at giving ma.s.sages, or perhaps it was because Ji Qingyan was too tired, but within a few minutes, she heard the sound of well-proportioned snoring.
Lin Yi looked at his expression and realized that it was already ten o’clock. He patted Ji Qingyan.
“Don’t sleep here. Go back to your room and sleep.”
“I haven’t washed up yet,” she replied drowsily.
“It’s only one day, so just skip it.”
“No, how can I sleep without washing up?”
He patted her b.u.t.t affectionately. “Go to sleep now. Don’t dawdle.”
“No.” Ji Qingyan stretched out her arms and said coquettishly, “Carry me there.”
“Yessir.”
“Hehe.”
Lin Yi carried Ji Qingyan like a princess.
Like a lazy cat, Ji Qingyan hid her head in Lin Yi’s arms and enjoyed the warmth in front of her.
Lin Yi put Ji Qingyan down in front of the bathroom on the second floor.
“I’ll take a shower first, then you take a shower. Don’t think about slacking off.”
“No problem. Don’t worry.”
Lin Yi took his phone and went downstairs. There were a few unread messages.
Li Sijin was the first to report, saying that they had safely returned to Dongsan County.
Lin Yi’s fingers tapped the armrest of the sofa as he contemplated the current situation.
Dongsan County had now entered a path of positive development.
Even if he stayed there every day, it wouldn’t be of much use.
Moreover, the ultimate mission of being a farmer was coming to an end.
For now, he just had to wait for the various industries to start operating, and the mission would naturally be completed.
However, he still had to go back and observe things when he had the time.
In accordance with the tradition in Dongsan County, this time of year was when they sold their grain. Lin Yi planned to find a good buyer for their crops to secure a good deal and have a prosperous year ahead.
However, Lin Yi was not most concerned about Dongsan County.
The w.a.n.g family in Yanjing was the real threat to him.
After such a long time, there was actually no movement at all.. What were they waiting for?
