Chapter 658 - 658 A Wife's Honor Depends on Her Husband
658 A Wife’s Honor Depends on Her Husband
They heard someone call Lin Yi’s name.
Ji Qingyan, Guo Ningyue, and the others all turned to look at him, wanting to know what was going on.
The other customers in the restaurant paused when they heard Lin Yi’s name and looked over.
Lin Yi was also puzzled. He had never done business in Yangcheng before, so no one here should know him, right?!!
“That’s me.” Lin Yi raised his hand.
Seeing that someone had replied, the middle-aged man walked over with a waiter.
“We don’t know each other, do we?”
“Mr. Lin, it’s like this.” The middle-aged man smiled and said.
“Secretary Wu called us just now and said that the meal is on him. He asked us to take good care of you.”
“Secretary Wu?”
“Yes, the head of our municipal committee, Secretary Wu Zhaoyou.”
Lin Yi admired Wu Zhaoyou’s ability.
Without telling him his whereabouts, he already figured out that he was eating here. With this level of ability, it was only natural for him to become a leader.
Qu Xuanhe and Qu Bing exchanged glances.
Both of them were shocked.
The Qu family also did business, so they naturally knew who Wu Zhaoyou was, but they were not at the level where they knew him personally.
“No need, we’re just having a family banquet. There’s no need to take care of us.” Lin Yi said indifferently.
“That won’t do. Secretary Wu called me personally. We will have to serve you well. Otherwise, my shop won’t be able to operate in the future.”
As he spoke, the male boss looked at the waiter beside him. “Go upstairs and open the private room specially prepared for the city leaders. They won’t continue eating here anymore.”
The male boss’s words made Qu Bing’s heart skip a beat.
She also had her own business. When she had important guests, she would invite them here for a meal.
He also knew that there was a luxurious private room prepared for the provincial and city leaders.
However, from the beginning to the end, they had never eaten there and did not know what it was like.
However, when it came to Ningyue’s brother, he had no intention of going at all, but he was still forced to move.
What exactly did he do? Why was Secretary Wu treating him like this?
Moreover, wasn’t he from Zhonghai? How could he have such great influence in Yangcheng?
After thinking about it, Qu Bing still could not figure out why Ningyue’s brother enjoyed such treatment.
Could it be that he had another identity?
This… this was impossible.
“Mr. Lin, the private room is ready. Let’s go over now,” the male boss said respectfully.
Lin Yi shrugged and looked at Ji Qingyan. “I don’t think I can refuse anymore. Let’s move over.”
“Yes, yes.” Guo Ningyue nodded and said, “The private room is more quiet.”
The Qu siblings stood up nervously, especially Qu Bing. She had originally wanted to support her brother, but now it seemed that she could not even hold on herself at all!
After all, they had to reserve a table in advance before coming here while the other party was directly invited to a private room.
That was the difference in status.
However, just as Lin Yi stood up and was about to go upstairs, he suddenly saw a few middle-aged men approaching.
“Hello, may I ask if you are President Lin of Lingyun Group?” A man in a light blue shirt said.
“You know who I am?”
The middle-aged man extended his hand. “Let me introduce myself. I’m Ma Youxiang from Yangcheng North Wind Technology. I watched the entire press conference about the Chip 2.0. I’m really impressed.”
“Um…”
Lin Yi was a little surprised. Did his reputation extend to Yangcheng?
At this moment, another middle-aged man extended his hand.
“President Lin, I’m Zhao Weidong from Red Cheng Entertainment. Previously, someone maliciously shorted Didi. You were able to spend hundreds of billions to employ a counterattack. I’ve been in the industry for so many years, but I’ve never had such boldness. I was really impressed.”
Spending 100 billion…
Hearing these words, the Qu siblings were dumbfounded.
What did he do? Why was he so financially powerful?
If he really relied on the girl beside him to make a fortune, he probably wouldn’t receive such treatment.
“You’re too kind.”
Lin Yi’s expression was calm. On the other hand, Ji Qingyan was overjoyed.
Lin Yi was being praised, and she felt proud.
After a few simple words, the four of them arrived at the private room upstairs.
Although the decoration downstairs was already very exquisite, it was still far from the level of the decor upstairs.
Any one of the ornaments inside cost more than five figures. This also amazed the Qu siblings.
It was indeed a private room fit for leaders. It was completely different!
If it wasn’t for Ningyue’s brother, they might never have the chance to eat here in their life.
“Brother, isn’t your reputation a little too impressive? You actually got Secretary Wu to personally arrange a meal for us.” Qu Xuanhe asked.
“A while ago, I built a Hope School here and paved a village road. He probably wants to express his gratitude for this.”
“That’s very impressive. Most people wouldn’t have been able to do either of those things.”
Before she came, Guo Ningyue said that her brother was rich, but Qu Bing didn’t believe her.
From the looks of it, this was not an exaggeration.
He really was rich, much richer than the Qu family.
However, to Qu Bing, Lin Yi’s treatment was even more shocking.
In Huaxia, there were many rich people who had the money to build roads and schools, but not many of them could be treated like this by the city’s head.
Brother Ningyue’s identity had probably reached an unimaginable level.
“Brother, since you’re so powerful, do you know Qin Han?” Qu Xuanhe asked curiously.
“Very familiar, he’s my little brother.”
Qu Xuanhe, “…”
Qu Bing, “…”
“The famous Qin Han is actually your underling?”
“He borrowed my car before.”
“Brother, you really didn’t show your true colors. I can’t believe Qin Han is your underling.”
“When you go to Zhonghai, I’ll introduce you.”
“You said it, so I’ll remember it.” Qu Xuanhe said, “When I go to Zhonghai, if anyone bullies me, I’ll mention you.”
“Don’t cause trouble for my brother and sister-in-law. They’re serious businessmen,” Guo Ningyue said.
“Hehe, I’m just joking. Don’t worry, I won’t cause trouble.”
“Alright, let’s eat first. Cousin is probably hungry too.”
“I’m fine, but there’s still your brother and sister-in-law waiting to eat. Let’s not wait anymore,” Qu Bing said.
“That’s what I was thinking.”
Then, Qu Xuanhe ordered a few dishes. The rest of the dishes were sent by the boss.
At the final checkout, he didn’t even take the money. He handled the matter very clearly.
During this meal, Qu Bing realized that she had indeed underestimated him.
Although Ningyue’s brother and sister-in-law were not ordinary, they did not put on any airs. His attitude when he spoke was very kind.
Moreover, he didn’t seem to have any requirements when it came to the Qu Family. All he wanted was for them to treat Ningyue well.
In the end, she even talked to Ningyue’s sister-in-law about cosmetics.
In short, the meal was very pleasant.
After dinner, the group parted ways.
After returning to the hotel, Lin Yi reported the situation to Mother Wang, who was was relieved.
“Do we have any plans for tomorrow?” Ji Qingyan asked.
“Wu Zhaoyou has already invited me out. It’s not good for me to leave just like that. I’ll have a cup of tea with him tomorrow and take a look at the company we’re going to invest in. Then, I’ll go back tomorrow night.”
“In that case, I’ll book a flight first.”
“Yeah.”
The next morning, Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan visited the company they were planning to invest in before heading over to Wu Zhaoyou’s place.
This trip wasn’t for naught either, as Lin Yi chatted with Wu Zhaoyou about Longxin.
He asked for some targeted policies from Yangcheng, which would have a very positive impact on the future development and layout of the company.
Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan eventually returned to Jiuzhou Pavilion at around eleven in the evening.
“I’ve been working non-stop today. I feel like I’m about to fall apart.”
When they reached home, Ji Qingyan lay on the sofa and said.
“Then I’ll give you a full-body massage. It’ll feel good and relieve your fatigue.”
Ji Qingyan dodged with a grin. “No way. You just want to take advantage of me. I know you too well.”
After getting up, Ji Qingyan went to the bathroom to take a shower. After washing up, she went to bed early.
Lin Yi returned to his room.
“F*ck, I finally have a chance to do a mission.”
