Chapter 483: We Are Not in a Relationship
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“W-What did you say?!”
Sun Jiacheng’s wife could no longer remain calm. “You’re saying that they drive a car worth more than 30 million yuan and wear watches worth more than 10 million yuan?!”
“What else? If they weren’t so rich, why would they reject me?” Sun Jiacheng said.
“With their net worth, even if we gave them all our a.s.sets, they wouldn’t want them.”
“Uh… I was wrong about this.”
!!
“It’s not your fault. When I saw the car keys and the watch, I was also shocked.”
The surgery was expected to end in three hours, but because of Lin Yi’s superb skills, the surgery was completed in two hours.
The surgery was soon over. Lin Yi and Li Chuhan took off their masks and walked out of the operating theater.
The rest of the work would be done by Qiao Xin and the other nurses. There was no need for the two of them anymore.
“Doctor, how is my father?” Sun Jiacheng said excitedly.
“Don’t worry, the surgery was very successful. He can be discharged in seven days.”
“Thank you, Doctor. Thank you, Doctor.”
To Lin Yi and Li Chuhan, these words of thanks were like a red packet in and of itself.
To Lin Yi, what made him even happier was that the mission progress had already reached (4/5). There was still another surgery the next day, so completing the mission would be easy.
He just didn’t know what the ultimate mission of this profession would be.
The two of them returned to the department and packed their things. They went out at the same time and prepared to walk down the streets for a bit.
“Did you take a taxi or drive here?”
Lin Yi asked as he walked out of the elevator.
“I took your car,” Li Chuhan said, a little embarra.s.sed.
“But I was afraid that others would see me, so I didn’t drive to the hospital. I found a place to park in the neighborhood next door.”
“Then we’ll drive my car.”
“Yeah, sure.”
“Where do you usually go to buy clothes?” Li Chuhan asked after getting into the car.
“Times Square and Wanda Plaza. Times Square seems to be nearer, so let’s go there.”
“Then let’s go to Times Square.”
Li Chuhan’s income had always been above average.
Although the price of goods in Times Square was relatively high, with her income, she could still afford it. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to drive a car like the Type-R.
“Alright.” Lin Yi started the car and drove toward Times Square.
“How much did it cost to repair the car? The Wei family has already given me the money. I’ll transfer it to you later.”
“Transfer? Just keep it for yourself.” Lin Yi said.
“I’ve already received a call from the garage. It’ll take about a week for your Type-R to be fixed.”
“Then I’ll use this money to buy you clothes.”
Li Chuhan knew that 100,000 yuan was nothing to Lin Yi. Even if she gave it to him, he wouldn’t want it. He could only return it to him in this way.
“Why should I care about that? I don’t lack that bit of money.”
“Before my mother pa.s.sed away, she kept telling me not to take things from others and not to owe them anything. If I ever owe them anything, I had to pay them back as soon as possible. Having too many unresolved debts would eventually take a toll on one’s life.”
“That’s all old school thinking,” Lin Yi said, “Who can live their entire life in complete isolation?”
“Yes, I understand.”
The two of them got out of the car together and Lin Yi saw that the smile on Li Chuhan’s face seemed to have widened.
Sunlight had started to seep into the tightly shut door.
“That little brother is so handsome.”
“Look at his profile. It’s so angular. He looks like a star on TV.”
“You two, calm down.”
The person who spoke was a boy standing beside the girl. His name was Chen Junlong. He was dressed in sportswear and was standing straight. He looked very mature.
The girls who were talking were Chen Junlong’s cla.s.smates, w.a.n.g Nannan and Sun Yijia.
“It’s mainly because he’s too handsome. He’s much better-looking than the boys in our school.”
“What’s the use of being handsome? Isn’t he driving Shari?” Chen Junlong said disdainfully.
“G.o.d is fair. He gave him a perfect appearance. In other aspects, he’s naturally not as impressive,” w.a.n.g Nannan said.
“That’s why being handsome is useless. It can’t be used to put food on the table.”
“Brother Long, I think you’re jealous.”
“What’s there to be jealous about? I’m not bad-looking either. I’m richer than him and will be in politics in the future. My conditions are much better than his.”
“You’re better on average, but you sound pretty biased,” w.a.n.g Nannan said.
“Having said that, overall, your conditions are still a little better. After all, you can’t survive without money.”
“If you don’t have money, just earn it slowly. No one is born with money,” Sun Yijia said, her gaze still fixed on Lin Yi.
w.a.n.g Nannan’s expression was playful as she said with a smile, “Brother Long, in truth, my stance on this matter isn’t important. You should convince Yijia first. Otherwise, you’ll have to find someone else to court.”
“Oh, don’t talk nonsense. I didn’t mean anything by it.”
Seeing Sun Yijia’s shy expression, Chen Junlong said,
“Yijia, I don’t think you’re mature enough. You’re already so old, yet you’re still starting a driver of a Shari. What do you think he can do for you?”
Li Chuhan, who was walking in front, stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Chen Junlong with a cold expression.
In reality, Lin Yi had already heard their conversation, but he wasn’t angry at all.
Instead, he smiled and walked to Sun Yijia’s side. “Beauty, can I add you on WeChat?”
“You, you want to add me on WeChat…?”
Sun Yijia’s face seemed to be on fire. Such a handsome little brother wanted to add her on WeChat. Happiness had come too suddenly. It was a little unbelievable.
“Kid, who do you think you are? Yijia never gives strangers WeChat…”
“Little brother, what’s your WeChat number? I’ll add you.”
Chen Junlong, “…”
Lin Yi pulled out his QR code. “You can scan me.”
“Uh-huh.”
Sun Yijia held her phone excitedly, scanned the QR code, and added Lin Yi on WeChat.
“Let’s chat on WeChat. I’ll treat you to a meal when I have time.”
“Okay, okay.”
Lin Yi smiled and looked at Chen Junlong. “You should go back and train more.”
The onlookers could not help but laugh.
“A good-looking person has the advantage. Beautiful women will take the initiative to throw themselves at him. In a few days, they’ll go to a hotel to have some in-depth communication.”
“That’s right. And this will all happen for free.”
Hearing the whispers of the others, Chen Junlong said,
“Yijia, you can’t talk to him. Delete his contact quickly. It’s obvious that he’s a sc.u.mbag who plays with girls’ emotions.”
“That’s none of your business. I know what I’m doing.”
Chen Junlong, “…”
After adding Sun Yijia on WeChat, Lin Yi and Li Chuhan walked straight into Times Square.
Judging from how familiar Li Chuhan was with this place, it seemed she had been here before. She was not shocked in the slightest at the exorbitant price tags.
“Let’s go to the third floor and take a look around. There are men’s clothes there.”
The two of them arrived at the third floor. This place was filled with both domestic and overseas second-tier brands.
Although they were not as famous as international brands, it was better in terms of tailoring and style. Otherwise, it would not have been able to survive in Times Square.
After walking around the third floor, Li Chuhan found a niche brand. However, the style of the clothes was unique and stood out among the many brands.
“I saw this shop once when I was shopping. It looks pretty good. Do you want to try it?”
“Alright, go ahead and choose. I don’t have any requirements when it comes to clothes. Anything is fine.”
“Yeah.”
Li Chuhan looked around and found two pairs of black and blue casual pants and two white polo shirts for Lin Yi.
“This outfit looks more mature, but won’t make you appear old. It’s suitable for attending important events. Try it.”
When Lin Yi walked out of the fitting room, the female shop a.s.sistant’s eyes widened.
The men’s clothing in this shop was famous for being difficult to pull off.
Among the many people who came to try on the clothes, Lin Yi was the first to wear it to such effect.
Indeed, with his good looks, he could really wear any clothes he wanted.
Li Chuhan stood in front of Lin Yi and gently helped him adjust his collar and b.u.t.tons.
A faint fragrance wafted over. It was especially pleasant.
“Sir, your girlfriend has good taste. This dress looks like it was tailor-made for you.”
“We’re not a couple,” Li Chuhan explained in embarra.s.sment.
“Oh, I’m sorry.”
After knowing about their relationship, the female shop a.s.sistant’s gaze seemed to become ambiguous. It was very intriguing.
This boy was so handsome, and this woman was helping him choose his clothes.
Could it be they were a female superior and a male subordinate?
After all, it was common for youngsters to seek out a rich woman these days.
“Help me pack this up,” Lin Yi said.
“Alright.” The female shop a.s.sistant picked up the two sets of clothes. “h.e.l.lo, sir. It’s 18,500 yuan after discount.”
Li Chuhan took out her phone and was about to pay when Lin Yi stopped her.
“I have a membership card here. Can you help me calculate the price after the 30% discount?”
