“I’ve noted down these two suggestions and will try to arrange them as soon as possible,” Liu Hong said.
“The Central Guards Brigade has been around for so many years. It’s time for some internal changes.”
“This is your own matter, so 1 won’t interfere anymore.” Lin Yi stretched and said. “If there’s nothing else, I’ll head back to Zhonghai.”
“What do you mean you’re heading back to Zhonghai?” Liu Hong asked.
“There are still many things that need to be done after the trial. Ultimately, you’re the team leader of Team 1, so I need you to take care of some things after the trial. Stay for a few more days.”
“My wife is waiting for me in Zhonghai.”
“Do you think I don’t know what kind of person you are? The fact that you’re in such a hurry to go back means you definitely don’t have any good intentions.”
“It’s a biological need. It’s different from you old men in your forties.”
“Stop talking nonsense with me. This issue can be resolved anywhere. Why are you in such a hurry to go back? What’s wrong? Is Ning Che not fun enough for you anymore?”
Ning Che,”???”
Why am I suddenly being dragged into this?
He has never played with me before!
“Alright, I’ll stay for a few more days.”
Ring ring ring!
Just as Lin Yi was about to go back and rest, his phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number.
“Hello?”
“Hello, Mr. Lin. I’m Zhao Shiqi. I got your number from Director Yan.”
“Ah…”
Lin Yi echoed, “Why are you looking for me?”
“Well…”
Zhao Shiqi wanted to say something but hesitated. After muttering for a while, she said,
“The paparazzi secretly took photos of you and caused you a lot of trouble. I want to treat you to a meal to apologize.”
“I’m sure your company arranged this.”
Zhao Shiqi stuttered.
“The company did call me, but I feel that no matter what your motive was for helping me settle this issue, I still have to thank you. Hehe, it shouldn’t be a problem to treat me to a meal, right?”
Lin Yi looked at his watch. “I don’t mind having a meal, but just don’t let what happened yesterday happen again.”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Lin. It won’t happen again. I’ll do my best to protect you.”
“Alright, you can decide on the time and place. Just send the details to my phone when the time comes.”
Soon, Zhao Shiqi decided on a place to eat.
The meal was set for five o’clock in the evening, but the location was a little remote. It was not in the CBD area.
As he had plans for the night, Lin Yi did not stay long in the Central Guards Brigade. He returned to the hotel to take a shower, change his clothes, and have a phone conversation with his wife.
He thought that this would just be a way to kill time, but unexpectedly, something interesting happened.
There was a semiconductor conference taking place in Yanjing.
Moreover, it was an international conference. He could be considered to have hit the jackpot.
However, Lin Yi wasn’t overly fussed. There were so many people in his company. He didn’t need to personally attend it.
If they really needed him, they would have called him long ago and not waited until now.
After chatting with Ji Qingyan for a while, Lin Yi hung up and went for his dinner appointment.
The place Zhao Shiqi chose was near the fifth ring of Yanjing.
However, the houses here were not cheap. Any one of them cost millions. To ordinary people, these houses were more than nice enough to retire in.
The restaurant’s name was The Wizard of Oz, and it was a Western restaurant.
The environment inside was quiet and decorated in an old medieval style. However, there was no one inside. The entire place seemed to have been reserved.
“Mr. Lin, you’re here.”
Lin Yi had just reached the door when he saw Zhao Shiqi walking out.
Zhao Shiqi’s outfit was eye-catching.
She was wearing a black tube top dress. Her shoulders were exposed, and her calves looked slim and long. She looked exceptionally exquisite.
“I’m not late, am I?”
“No, no. I came early.”
Zhao Shiqi gestured for Lin Yi to enter.
