“Hehe, although you’re not Tang Sanzang, you’re more attractive than him.”

“Hey, you are spilling your drool on me.”

“Oh, don’t mind the details.”

“Don’t cut the queue you guys. The abs are mine,” said the young nurse with A-cup chest.

“It’s mine!” Another young nurse said.

“The collarbone is mine,” the C-cup nurse said.

“The pecs are mine,” the D-cup nurse said.

“F*ck, you guys are too much,” Qiao Xin said. “I’ll let you guys split it, but you’re leaving the crotch to me?”

“Isn’t that part the most valuable?”

“But I’m afraid Director Li will kill me.”

“Haha…”

With Qiao Xin and a dozen nurses chasing after him, it took more than half an hour for Lin Yi to finish changing the dressing. He stayed in the hospital with Li Chuhan for a while before driving to Liang Ruoxu’s place.

“How’s the shoulder wound?”

In the office, Liang Ruoxu poured a gla.s.s of water for Lin Yi with a concerned expression. She couldn’t stay as calm as Li Chuhan.

“As long as I don’t do anything strenous, 1’11 be fine after ten to eight days.”

“Stay in Zhonghai from now on and don’t go anywhere else.”

“Once bitten, twice shy. This whole thing was an accident.”

“I don’t even know what to say to you.” Liang Ruoxu lectured.

“If there’s anything, just give me a call. I’ll settle it for you in minutes. You won’t have to go through so much trouble.”

“That’s true, but I can’t trouble others for what I can do myself.”

Liang Ruoxu frowned. “Am 1 considered someone else?”

“No, no, no. You’re my wife.”

“Don’t be cheeky with me.”

Lin Yi placed his hands behind his head and leaned back in his chair.

“Although there was an accident, it’s not like we didn’t gain anything. Didn’t we find a reason to deal with the w.a.n.g family’s remaining members? Otherwise, the people they left in the Central Guards Brigade would be like ticking time bombs. I reckon Old Lu has been waiting for this opportunity.”

“Hmph, I guess he’s the only one who’s happy about this.”

“Who cares who’s happy, as long as it’s a net-positive,” Lin Yi said.

“If we can really bring down the w.a.n.g family through this incident, other than Old Lu, both the Liang family and myself will also benefit greatly.”

Naturally, Liang Ruoxu was aware of these simple principles.

However, she was a hundred times unwilling to exchange Lin Yi’s life for it.

“Okay, okay, let’s not talk about this anymore.”

At this point, Liang Ruoxu knew that there was no point in dwelling on it. They might as well discuss something else.

“Is there anything wrong with your company and the people around you?”

Lin Yi smiled. He knew what Liang Ruoxu was referring to.

“If something were to happen, I wouldn’t be able to come to you unscathed.”

“But it’s been so many days, yet there’s no movement from the w.a.n.g family at all. I’m a little relieved.”

Lin Yi’s expression also changed.

“I’m also puzzled. It doesn’t seem like the w.a.n.g family’s style at all. It’s as if they don’t intend to pursue the matter.”

“I can’t say anything else, but I’m certain that the w.a.n.g family will not let this matter rest,” Liang Ruoxu said.

“The longer they stay hidden, the greater the threat to you.”

“Clever.”

“So don’t idle around during this period of time. Do your own things well and don’t give them an opening.”

“Sure thing.”

After discussing work, the two of them spent some cozy time in the office, leaving Liang Ruoxu feeling uncomfortable all over. Then, he left with a confident demeanor.

Back at Chaoyang Group, Ji Qingyan had just finished her work.

He was prepared to shop at the supermarket together with her.

With Lin Yi accompanying her, Ji Qingyan was in a good mood. She wanted to buy everything she saw. Unknowingly, her shopping cart was soon filled, so she could only push another one over.

“Why do 1 feel like the two of us are here to buy shelter supplies?”

“It’s just that the fridge at home is empty. There’s nothing left inside.”

“You still have the cheek to say that.” Lin Yi smiled.

“Why didn’t you come by and restock it?”

“It’s meaningless for me to shop for groceries when you’re not at home.”

“This is such a ceremonial place. It’d only be interesting if two people walked around together.”

“Is that a ritual?”

“Yes, it’s a ritual.”

“I remember when I was a child, supermarkets weren’t popular back then. We used to shop at open-air markets, and our family of three often went together to buy groceries. It felt like a real part of life because we were getting things that were so closely related to our daily living.”

“Enenen… that’s true.”

Lin Yi felt that children from rich families were indeed different.

How could shopping at a market be so insightful?

When he was young, he went to the market with his mother just to get ice cream from the market and see the hot lady selling steamed buns.

Lin Yi felt that his hobby of eating steamed buns should have been nurtured from that period.

The two of them shopped for more than an hour and bought two shopping carts of items before she was satisfied.

“Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Lin.”

In the past, Ji Qingyan would share the burden with Lin Yi when they went out to the supermarket.

But now, this had already become a habit. These physical labors were borne Lin Yi’s, and she only carried some of the vegetables.

Looking at the fruits and vegetables in the cart, Lin Yi felt a little melancholic.

With his current state, this would be a test. He could only pray that his wound was fine.

After more than twenty minutes, Lin Yi brought everything to the car.

Just as he heaved a sigh of relief, he suddenly felt a touch of coldness on his skin.

What the f*ck!

Needless to say, Lin Yi knew that the wound had opened!

He had to hurry over to Li Chuhan’s place to deal with it.

“What happened?”

Noticing that Lin Yi’s expression was off, Ji Qingyan asked.

“I’m fine,” Lin Yi said, “Drive home!”

“Huh?” Her smile blossomed like a flower.

“I was too tired yesterday. I’ll show you something when we get home today. Consider it a welcome party.”

Compared to yesterday, Ji Qingyan was exceptionally happy today.

“Uh… Then let’s go home quickly.”

After packing up the things they had bought, the two of them got into the car.

Lin Yi held his phone and hurriedly sent a WeChat message to Shen Tianzhuo behind Ji Qingyan’s back.

“Call me in half an hour and tell me to work overtime at the hospital.”

After sending the message, Lin Yi put his phone back in his pocket and returned to the car as if nothing had happened.

He had asked Shen Tianzhuo to do this before. After seeing his WeChat, he would definitely understand what Lin Yi meant.

After all, he used to be a playboy himself.

As expected, Lin Yi’s phone rang half an hour later.

Moreover, the timing of the call was spot on.

This detail showed how rigorous a scientist’s methodology was.

“What? You have a problem that can’t be dealt with?

“Alright, i’ll be there in a while..”
