Chapter 1914: The Breakthrough Point to Take Care of Ji Qingyan
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Zhao Qiang was stunned by Lin Yi.
He didn’t expect Lin Yi to receive such treatment in Huaqing Lake!
“Let’s go.”
Lin Yi called out and brought Number 18 and the other three technicians to the private room.
“Old Zhao, what’s wrong with this kid? Isn’t he being a little too pretentious?” Zhao Qiang’s friend said.
“And from the way he spoke, did something unpleasant happen between the two of you?”
Zhao Qiang did not avoid it and told his friend what had just happened.
However, he did not say much about being beaten up. After all, it was quite embarra.s.sing.
“I reckon that this brat should be a regular customer of Huaqing Lake. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to receive such treatment,” Zhao Qiang’s friend said.
“d.a.m.n it, he’s been going against me time and time again. I have to teach him a lesson today.”
Zhao Qiang’s friend took out his phone. “I’ve met a few big brothers in the underworld recently. Every one of them is quite capable. I’ll call them and help you settle this matter.”
“Brother Hua, there’s no need to trouble you with such a small matter.” Zhao Qiang said with a gloomy expression.
“I also have many friends in the underworld. I’ll call them now. I have to get back at him.”
…
After going up, Lin Yi took a quick shower and returned to the private room.
One of them ma.s.saged his feet, two on his arms, and one on his shoulders. Even the emperors of ancient times didn’t enjoy their lives as much as Lin Yi did now.
Lin Yi, on the other hand, had been resting with his eyes closed. He didn’t chat with these technicians like usual.
For him, everything had returned to normal. There was nothing for him to worry about anymore.
Ji Qingyan was the only thing left. Once she was dealt with, this storm would be over.
But that was the problem. How was he going to deal with her?
With her temper and personality, it would probably be very difficult for her to accept this.
It was impossible to start the conversation.
But this situation might not be as impenetrable as it seemed. There was a slight breakthrough point.
Ji Qingyan’s parents.
If he could win over her parents, he would have two more allies around her.
Occasional hints and subtle suggestions could definitely be effective.
Even if he couldn’t win them over completely, he could still influence her att.i.tude, making it less aggressive.
Given the current situation, he needed to use a slow, gradual approach, like boiling a frog in warm water.
However, there was a problem.
If Ji Qingyan’s parents were aware of the situation between him and Liang Ruoxu, he would have no chance.
So when the opportunity arose, he needed to subtly test their att.i.tude.
If her parents were unaware of his relationship with Liang Ruoxu, everything would be fine.
Otherwise, he would be in real trouble.
“Hmm?”
As Lin Yi pondered these matters, he suddenly remembered something.
Song Jinmin had mentioned that his mother had been in Zhonghai all this time, and she had been staying with Ji Qingyan!
This made it even easier for him to gather information.
Lin Yi smacked his lips and realized he would have to rely on his mother to act as an informant.
With this thought, Lin Yi opened his eyes. “Does anyone here have a phone? I need to borrow it.”
“Use mine, President Lin.”
Technician Number 18 took out her phone enthusiastically.
Lin Yi took the phone and dialed Qin Yingyue’s number.
The reason for this was to prevent himself from being exposed.
If his mother and Ji Qingyan were together, he would be exposed if he called her.
After the phone rang a few times, Qin Yingyue’s voice came from the other end.
“h.e.l.lo, who is this?”
“Mom, it’s me.”
“Son!”
Qin Yingyue was extremely excited when she heard Lin Yi’s voice. She did not expect Lin Yi to call her at this time.
“Mom, keep your voice down,” Lin Yi said.
“She’s not with you, is she?”
Although he didn’t say her name, Qin Yingyue knew who Lin Yi was talking about.
“Previously, we went to Doora together. After we came back, she started returning to the company to work. I’m at your house and there’s no one else around.”
Hearing this, Lin Yi was relieved.
At the same time, he also confirmed that she had gone to Doora a few days ago.
She was the one who had put the photo frame there. She didn’t ask someone else to do this.
“When did you get back? Who are you calling from?”
“I just came back yesterday afternoon and borrowed someone’s phone,” Lin Yi said.
“How is she these days?”
“She’s much better now, but she’s still depressed. She’s lost weight. She doesn’t eat much every day.”
Lin Yi felt a mix of emotions but didn’t know what to do.
“And she told me she’s planning to move out of Jiuzhou Pavilion in a few days,” Qin Yingyue said.
“Moving out?”
“Maybe she wants to avoid being reminded of you,” Qin Yingyue replied.
“I didn’t stop her. Staying at Jiuzhou Pavilion might just make her more unhappy. But what about you? Have you thought of a way to handle this?”
“I have, which is why I called you,” Lin Yi said.
“Have you had any contact with Ji Qingyan’s parents while you’ve been in Zhonghai?”
“I actually met them once,” Qin Yingyue replied.
“They thought you were dead and came to Jiuzhou Pavilion. We had a meal together.”
“Her parents shouldn’t know about me and Liang Ruoxu, right?”
“If they knew, do you think they would still have had dinner with me?”
“In fact, not many people know about it. The Liang family quickly suppressed the news.”
“That’s great,” Lin Yi sighed in relief. As long as her parents didn’t know, he had a way in.
“Why are you asking about this?”
Lin Yi didn’t hide anything and spoke truthfully.
“I’m planning to use her parents as a starting point to slowly persuade her. This way, I might have a chance.”
“That makes sense.”
Qin Yingyue sighed. “Please solve this quickly. Seeing her like this makes me feel bad too. And as her mother, I feel terrible for having to help you deceive her. I can’t sleep well at night.”
Lin Yi thought his mother was too kind. This kind of thing should be left to his mysterious father.
“Got it. I’ll try to resolve this as soon as possible.”
“And about your other affairs, I won’t say much else. But please don’t get involved with other women anymore. My heart isn’t good, and I can’t handle this stress.”
“Got it. I’ll hang up first.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up, Lin Yi was in a good mood and subconsciously started humming a tune.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Just then, there was a banging on the door. It seemed to be someones kicks.
“Who is it?”
Lin Yi asked, but no one replied.
The people outside were still kicking the door forcefully.
