“How did you know I was here?”
“I saw your car parked outside, and there’s no one inside, so 1 came in to take a look,” Liang Ruoxu said.
“You, on the other hand, why did you come to the pharmacy?”
“I was going to buy two boxes for the ginseng and lingzhi that you gave me previously, but the shop owner said that they were artificially cultivated and were only worth 1,000 yuan.”
“Worth 1,000 yuan?”
Liang Ruoxu looked at the shop owner with an unfriendly expression.
“Little girl, I’ll have to say something about you.” The shop owner pointed and said.
“You’re too unkind. You actually sold this man artificially cultivated ginseng and lingzhi for 10 million yuan. Let me tell you, this constitutes fraud. You’ll be sentenced!”
“Do you know who 1 am?”
“You’re a black-hearted merchant. You still have the cheek to…”
“Secretary Liang!”
Before the shop owner could finish speaking, someone behind him exclaimed in surprise.
Lin Yi turned around and saw that the person who spoke was a woman in her forties. After seeing Liang Ruoxu, her attitude was respectful and her expression was reserved.
Judging from her attire and her attitude towards Liang Ruoxu, she looked like a staff member in the compound.
It was this sound that made everyone in the shop focus their attention on Liang Ruoxu.
Ordinary people were not worthy of such a title.
“What do you call her?” The shop owner was stunned.
“Secretary Liang.”
The middle-aged woman revealed a helpless expression. “She’s the third-in-command in Zhonghai City. I won’t say anything else.”
“Third, third-in-command…”
The shop owner was dumbfounded. Everyone in the shop was also stunned!
Although this place was very close to the courtyard, it was not common to meet such a big shot!
“Do you still think that what I gave him is fake?”
The shop owner trembled and almost fell to the ground.
After babbling for a long time, the shop owner did not say a word. His thoughts were no longer under his control.
“Your shop is suspected of improper operations. I’ll get someone to investigate it later. Get ready.”
The shop owner was still rooted to the ground, not knowing what to say.
He just wanted to take advantage of her. Why did he encounter such a thing?
Was this retribution?
“Your level of trickery is really not up-to-par. You should go home and practice.”
With that, Lin Yi took the two boxes and left with Liang Ruoxu as they got into his car.
“Seriously, if you need anything, just tell me. Why did you come here yourself?”
“I saw that you didn’t come out yet, so I went alone. Who knew that he would cause so much trouble?”
“Alright, let’s not talk about what happened just now.”
Liang Ruoxu pulled the seatbelt and passed it between the two mountains.
Then, she inserted it into the buckle beside the seat.
This action made the waves on her chest even more obvious.
“If there’s anything you want to eat, I’ll take you there. Let me treat you to this meal.”
“What’s wrong? Did something good happen? Why are you taking the initiative to treat me to a meal?”
“I want to treat you to a meal because you’re doing well.”
“We haven’t seen each other much during this period of time. This has nothing to do with our good performance.”
Liang Ruoxu combed her hair and smiled at Lin Yi.
“My mother called me yesterday. She said that you’ve obtained a lot of important information from the Mitsui family, and you’ve given all the credit to me, so I have to arrange a meal for you. I can’t let your efforts go to waste.”
Lin Yi’s eyes lit up with joy.
This was a very obvious signal to him!
Shen Shuyi had told Liang Ruoxu about this, which meant that she would turn a blind eye to this matter!
From the looks of it, wasn’t this issue now considered settled?
At the very least, the future was clear!
Therefore, he could not let Liang Ruoxu treat him to a meal. He had to treat himself!
“It’s not a big deal. It’s what I should do.” Lin Yi pretended to be obedient.
“Just tell me what you want to eat, even if 1 have to cook it myself.”
Liang Ruoxu looked at Lin Yi as if sizing him up.
“What’s wrong? Why are you suddenly so attentive? Something must have happened.”
“What could have happened to me? Don’t think too little of me.”
“There’s no need to cook. Firstly, it’s a waste of time. Secondly, there’s no one around. You might be up to no good again. Let’s just find a nearby place to eat.”
“Whatever you say.”
Lin Yi drove and found a Sichuan restaurant nearby, where they prepared to have a simple meal.
Although it was not a famous place that had three Michelin stars, the most important thing for the two of them was being able to eat facing each other.
What they were eating was not the most important thing.
“Oh right, why did the higher-ups call you when 1 went to Yuhang?” Lin Yi asked while eating.
“Because he’s from our family,” Liang Ruoxu said.
“Originally, the leader over there was a member of the Wang family, but after the incident, he even took him down and replaced him with my grandfather’s student. Moreover, he knew that you created an opportunity for the Liang family, so when he saw your name, he gave me a call with the intention of notifying me. Originally, both of us thought that it was a coincidence, but we didn’t expect it to really be you.”
“So that’s what happened.” Lin Yi nodded seriously. “Even the people from Yuhang City were changed to become members of your Liang family. Impressive.”
“What you’re seeing now is only the tip of the iceberg. Our Liang family is amazing.”
“Brag away.”
Liang Ruoxu let out a charming smile.
“By the way, when you get there, do you need me to inform the leaders of Yuhang City to take care of you? I can easily transfer a few hundred million yuan in special funds over.”
“There’s no need for that. 1 have money on hand too. There’s no need to take the unorthodox route.”
Liang Ruoxu picked up a piece of fish and tasted it carefully.
However, his gaze was fixed on Lin Yi, meticulous and serious.
She wasn’t thinking about the taste of the fish, but about Lin Yi.
“You don’t really want to take them out of poverty, do you?”
“What else? If I didn’t have such thoughts, why would 1 run over to suffer?”
“Even so, 1 feel that this matter will be very difficult,” Liang Ruoxu said.
“I admit that you’re very smart and very capable, but this is no small feat.”
“Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. No matter how difficult it is, we have to do it. No matter what, we have to help them shed the label of poverty.”
“Hmph!”
Liang Ruo took off her high heels and snorted. Then, she kicked Lin Yi under the table.
“Since you’re so determined to do good deeds, why didn’t you stay in Zhonghai? Why did you have to run elsewhere to help? I’m guessing there must be something going on there!”
