Chapter 769 - 769 I'm a Pig if I Lie to You
769 I’m a Pig if I Lie to You
“Alright, I understand.”
Ito Mitsui did not say anything else. He bowed to Caie Mitsui and quietly left.
Caie Mitsui stood up expressionlessly and poured herself a glass of red wine.
The report from Ito Mitsui had given her a big reminder.!!
Lin Yi’s change was very strange. He was an expert in pharmaceuticals, so these two factors seemed to coincide.
However, there was something else that Caie Mitsui couldn’t figure out.
Assuming that the changes in Lin Yi’s body were all stimulated by drugs, how did he develop these drugs?
He did not seem to have the conditions to do so at all.
Shaking her head helplessly, Caie Mitsui rubbed her temples.
It would have been better if she had not delved deeper into it, but after careful investigation, she had opened a can of worms.
Thus, she could only work harder now.
The next morning, before Lin Yi could stir naturally, he was woken up by the phone beside his pillow.
He initially thought that it was Ji Qingyan calling, but she never expected it to be Qi Xianzhao.
“Director Lin, are you busy now?”
Qi Xianzhao found out from He Yuanyuan that Lin Yi was going to Meiguo on a business trip, so he chose this time to make the call.
“It’s fine, just tell me,” Lin Yi pretended to be calm.
“Something happened to the factory we bought.”
“Didn’t you already buy it? What could have happened?”
“On the day you left, a large number of employees quit. I originally thought that they did this because the factory was sold. After that, Yuanyuan and I showed up to try to appease the employees, but it was to no avail. The resignation rate was as high as 80%. Some old employees in leadership positions also left. It can be said that other than equipment, there was nothing left.”
Lin Yi sat up from the bed. “After that, did you take any measures?”
“In order for the project to proceed smoothly, Yuanyuan and I discussed the matter. We added another 300 yuan to the original salary, but the effect was not good.”
“It’s not a big deal. We’ll just recruit new people. I can afford to waste this time.”
“But it’s not that simple. After investigation, we found that the other factories in the industrial park have absorbed all our ex-employees. We raised our salaries to recruit them, and the other factories are also raising their salaries in return. They’re obviously going against us,” Qi Xianzhao said.
“Those people behind the scenes seem to be going against us.”
Lin Yi was silent for a few seconds. “Wait for me at the office. I’ll go back now, but don’t tell anyone about our call.”
“Got it, President Lin.”
Qi Xianzhao didn’t know what Lin Yi meant, but there must be a deeper meaning behind it. He would just listen to Lin YI’s plans.
After hanging up Qi Xianzhao’s call, Lin Yi called Ma Hongtao and asked him to send a helicopter over to pick him up.
Ma Hongtao agreed readily. After giving him the coordinates, Lin Yi got up and washed up, preparing to return to Zhonghai.
After washing up, Lin Yi knocked on Qin Han’s door.
“Why are you up so early in the morning instead of sleeping?” Qin Han rubbed his eyes and said.
There were two women lying on the bed inside. One of them had even exposed her private parts, but she didn’t care.
“Give me your private jet. I want to go back to Zhonghai.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Han became much more energetic.
“What happened? Why are you going back so early?”
“The company has encountered a small problem. Continue fooling around here. I’ll go back first.”
“If you’re leaving, what is the point of us sticking around?” Qin Han stretched. “I’ll call Old Gao and the others. Let’s go back together.”
“That works too.”
After that, the five of them had a simple meal. The helicopter Ma Hongtao arranged landed on the deck and brought them back to the airport on Yawan Island.
During this process, Zhang Xiaoyu even live streamed for a short while, but she did not trigger any additional missions.
Three hours later, the plane landed at Zhonghai Airport. Lin Yi said to the three of them,
“I still have something to do, so I won’t be joining you guys. I’ll get going first.”
“Is it that big a deal? Do you need our help?” Qin Han asked.
“It’s not a big deal. I can handle it myself.”
“Alright, call us if you need anything.”
Lin Yi nodded and went to the parking lot. He found his La Voiture Noire and drove to Chaoyang Group.
However, before that, Lin Yi went to buy a bouquet of flowers.
It was 12 noon when he arrived at Ji Qingyan’s office.
Ji Qingyan was sitting upright in a gray lady’s suit. Her long hair was tied up behind her head, and her calves were crossed. She was focused on the documents on the table, occasionally editing them.
Her remaining hand was not idle either. From time to time, she would touch a small biscuit beside her.
The broken pieces that fell on the table were not wasted as were all picked up and eventually eaten too.
Lin Yi took out his phone and dialed Ji Qingyan’s number.
“Why are you calling me?”
“Can’t I call you?”
“It should be twelve o’clock in the morning in Meiguo. Haven’t you gone to bed yet?”
“I just finished work and had some supper. I thought I’d give you a call. Did you have lunch yet?”
“I’m eating now. I haven’t missed a single meal in the past few days.”
“Are you sure? Are you so obedient?”
“Of course. I ate braised pork, winter melon shrimp, and stir-fried bean sprouts in the canteen.
“Since I’ve gotten together with you, I’ve kissed goodbye to all my cookies.”
“I can’t believe you’re so obedient.”
“It’s true. If I lie to you, I’d be a pig… Beep, beep, beep…”
Before she could finish speaking, she heard the dial tone on the phone.
She muttered under her breath, “What kind of person is this? I haven’t even finished speaking when he hung up.”
Creak…
Just as she was mumbling to herself, the office door was pushed open.
To her surprise, she saw Lin Yi walking in with a bouquet of red roses.
Ji Qingyan’s expression changed from surprise to joy.
She ran out and hugged Lin Yi.
“Why did you suddenly come back without telling me?”
“I just wanted to give you a surprise. Otherwise, how could I have discovered that our little sow was secretly eating biscuits?”
Ji Qingyan’s face reddened at Lin Yi’s words.
“You were just trying to trick me.”
“Who asked you to skip lunch and eat cookies in the office?”
Delighted, Ji Qingyan took the flowers from Lin Yi’s hands.
“The food cooked by the canteen chef isn’t as good as yours. I don’t have much of an appetite either. Therefore, I might as well eat my biscuits.”
With that, Ji Qingyan planted a kiss on Lin Yi’s cheek.
“You did well this time. You even bought me flowers when you came back.”
