Chapter 561: The Blushing Moonlight

“Aren’t you one?” Liang Ruoxu said.

“Even a woman like President Ji has been tricked by you. If it were an ordinary person, they would have been toyed to death by you.”

“All is fair in love and war. Otherwise, my mother would have hacked me to death even without Ji Qingyan’s help.”

“Auntie likes President Ji a lot, right?”

“Didn’t you see that she’s already called her daughter-in-law? If she didn’t like her, she wouldn’t call her that.”

After a few seconds of hesitation, Liang Ruoxu asked,

“Tell me, if the first girl you brought back wasn’t President Ji, wouldn’t the situation be different?”

“Um…”

This question stumped Lin Yi.

Ji Qingyan was undoubtedly outstanding. Anyone who saw her would like her.

However, none of the women beside him seemed to be lacking either.

Even if he brought w.a.n.g Ying back, Mother w.a.n.g would probably still like her.

Then again, she was still a traditional woman. She would have some feudal thoughts.

If the first person she had brought back was not Ji Qingyan, things might have been different.

To Mother w.a.n.g, it was still very important to be faithful to the first woman. The first girl would always be acknowledged as her daughter-in-law.

If Lin Yi had brought someone else back first, even if she met Ji Qingyan in the future, she would not acknowledge the latter.

“That’s very possible.” Lin Yi said.

“She’s getting old. She doesn’t actually have any requirements when it comes to finding a partner for her children. As long as it’s a girl of the opposite s.e.x, she’ll be as so long as the girl is alive.”

“That doesn’t mean you don’t still have to take precautions. The way you’re speaking, it’s as if there are no older youths in the world.”

“Alright, let’s not talk about this for now. Let’s get down to business.”

Lin Yi handed the doc.u.ments in his pocket back to Liang Ruoxu.

“Sign it and leave a copy. I’ll send the rest back to Zhao Wen.”

Lin Yi’s three requests listed on the doc.u.ment were all beneficial to the country and the people.

“Why are you doing this? You’re not getting anything out of this.”

“Ever since I was young, my mother told me that children from poor backgrounds should take charge early and become a…”

“Stop, stop, stop. Stop spouting nonsense. I’m afraid you’ll fool me to death.”

“Then hurry up and sign it. Try to get promoted as soon as possible. At that time, Zhonghai will be ours. If anyone dares to f*cking bully me, I’ll shout out loud. In all of Zhonghai, who would still dare to f*cking touch me, Lin Yi?!”

“Alright, be more serious.” Liang Ruo covered her mouth and smiled.

“Even now, no one in Zhonghai dares to touch you.”

“Then hurry up and sign it. It’ll take effect after you sign it,” Lin Yi said.

“In the few minutes you are hesitating, many more people might be spending exorbitant money to see a doctor.”

Liang Ruoxu took a deep breath. “Lin Yi, thank you for doing this. I don’t dare to say anything else. With these achievements, it’s not a problem for me to become a member of the National Commitee.”

“I’m not interested in such things. It’s better for you to protect me since you’re so awesome.”

Lin Yi stretched. “I’m going back to sleep. Just put it in my bag after signing the contract.”

“Don’t just sleep. Think about how to deal with the negative news first.”

“I’ll do it after I go to bed.”

“Also, are you sure you’re going to resign?” Liang Ruoxu asked.

“Tomorrow morning, after I’m done with Muddy Waters, I’ll go to the hospital in the afternoon to hand in my resignation.”

“Do you need my help?”

“No. This is just a small matter. I can handle it myself.”

With a click, Lin Yi closed the door and prepared to sleep.

Whoosh…

Looking at the doc.u.ments on the coffee table, Liang Ruoxu took a deep breath.

She knew better than anyone what these doc.u.ments meant. With these political achievements, it should be enough to get her promoted.

Looking at Lin Yi’s room, Liang Ruoxu frowned slightly. He didn’t know if Lin Yi had come up with a solution.

“Huff… huff…”

Liang Ruoxu, “…”

It had only been a few minutes, and he was already snoring?

Did you think of a solution or not?!

Liang Ruoxu quietly walked towards the door.

Then, he carefully opened the door and saw Lin Yi sleeping soundly on the bed in his underwear.

The moonlight shone in from outside the bed, lighting up Lin Yi’s well-defined face. Even Liang Ruoxu was a little infatuated.

From the photolithography project, to the name list provided by Pfizer, and now the contract in her hand.

From the beginning until the end, he did not do any of it for his own benefit.

He had been contributing to society in his own way.

In the quiet night, Liang Ruoxu remembered the night her mother had come.

She said that Lin Yi’s future would be one of two extremes.

He would either be stepped on by the world or step on the world himself.

However, when she thought of what Lin Yi had done, she dismissed this notion.

He was both cynical toward, but also willing to better, the world.

Her mother was wrong. He had long made peace with this devastated world.

The night was quiet. Liang Ruoxu couldn’t help but walk over and cover Lin Yi with a blanket.

However, just as she was about to leave, Liang Ruoxu could not help but lean down and kiss the side of his face.

However, at that moment, Liang Ruoxu saw Lin Yi turn around and their lips met.

Boom!

Liang Ruoxu’s mind went blank as she felt terrible.

Just as she was about to break free, she suddenly felt a tight grip on her waist.

Her waist was tightly hugged by Lin Yi, and she didn’t even have the chance to resist. She was forcefully carried to the bed and pressed under him.

Furthermore, their mouths were still touching.

Liang Ruoxu’s eyes widened like a frightened deer.

“Boohoo…”

“Beauty Liang, why aren’t you sleeping at night? Why did you ambush me?”

“Who ambushed you?”

The moonlight reflected on Liang Ruoxu’s flushed face as if it was on fire.

“You came over to kiss me, and you still say that you weren’t trying to ambush me?”

“Get up, you’re pressing on me. It hurts.” Liang Ruoxu pushed Lin Yi away and ran out in a panic, too embarra.s.sed to face anyone.

…

Yanjing, Shangri-La Hotel.

Zhao Mo, Gu Changchuan, Sun Ce, and Lu Xuan were eating together.

However, other than the four of them, Feng Zhu was with them.

“Mr. Zhu, let me toast you.” Zhao Mo raised his gla.s.s and said,

“The results of your investigation are really beyond my expectations. I didn’t expect you to be able to find so much negative information. It’s too surprising.”

“This is only our first attack. I estimate that in another three to four days, the popularity of this matter might decrease. At that time, we will expose the second wave of negative information. I will make sure his Lingyun Group and Didi have no room for a counterattack!”

Hearing this, Zhao Mo and the other three were extremely surprised.

This was because they were already very satisfied with the current situation.

If there was a second wave, wouldn’t Lin Yi be slaughtered?

“Mr. Zhu, I’ll have a good drink with you today.”

“There’s an old saying in Huaxia. We take people’s money and help them solve their problems. This outcome was only natural.” Feng Zhu held his wine gla.s.s and said.

“This short-selling game is not over yet. They will definitely suffer a crushing defeat!”
