Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Secretary Liang is awesome. I’ll give you a thumbs up.”
“Why are you still being cheeky at a time like this?” Liang Ruoxu was furious. “I’ll make a call now to settle this now.”
“Don’t be anxious. Doing this will alert the enemy,” Lin Yi said.
“Last night, I taught Sun Manlou and the others a lesson. Normally, after such a thing happened, they wouldn’t dare to attack me again. Moreover, they’ve now resorted to such an extreme method, so there must be something fishy about this matter.”
After pondering for a moment, Liang Ruoxu said,
“You mean to say that the person behind Sun Manlou is behind this?”
“That’s what I think, but there’s no evidence.” Lin Yi said.
“Do you still remember that when I came here, you told me that the northeast is the Wang family’s territory?”
Upon hearing this, Liang Ruoxu felt enlightened.
“Are you saying that Sun Manlou is affiliated with the Wang family in Yanjing?”
“It’s very likely. Sun Manlou wouldn’t have developed to this extent without a powerful backer. Moreover, this is the Wang family’s territory, so there might be some connection between the two of them. I need you to help me investigate this.”
“Alright, no problem. 1’11 give you an answer tomorrow,” Liang Ruoxu said.
“If this is really the Wang family’s doing, we can use this opportunity to catch them off guard.”
“That’s unlikely.” Lin Yi said with a serious expression.
“We succeeded last time because the Wang family underestimated us. They won’t leave any evidence behind this time. Even if we are sure that they instigated this, we don’t have any evidence.”
“So what are you going to do?”
“Give them a taste of their own medicine. First, investigate the relationship between Sun Manlou and the Wang family. Then, investigate the Wang family’s movements. You don’t have to do anything else.”
“Then what about your injury? We can’t just forget about that, right?”
“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. The reason why I didn’t ask you to come here because I’m waiting for an opportunity.”
“What chance?”
“The other party’s goal was to kill me, but they didn’t succeed at the ski resort.
I’m predicting that they’ll make another move in the next few days.”
“You mean they’ll come to the hospital to finish you off?”
“That’s possible. That’s why I didn’t want you to come over. Once my identity is exposed, it will alert the enemy.”
“Do you need me to call the provincial military?”
“You don’t need anything. Just do your own thing. 1’11 call you if something happens.”
“Okay, then be careful.”
“Don’t worry, nothing will happen.”
After hanging up on Liang Ruoxu, Lin Yi called Ji Qingyan.
First, they talked about Lingyun Group Chaoyang Group. Then, she asked about Lin Yi’s situation. They chatted about meaningless topics just to pass the time. Half an hour later, An Ning returned and Lin Yi hung up.
She bought a lot of food, but most of them were light snacks.
“Where’s Sijin?”
“She still has work tomorrow, so I asked her to go back.” Lin Yi said.
“You should go back after you’re done eating. Your father is also hospitalized here. It’s not good for you to come here every day.”
“Things are going much better on my dad’s side. My mom can take care of him alone,” An Ning said.
“You’re all alone here, just by yourself. If I don’t come to see you, won’t you become a ‘left-behind youth’?”
“You’re right. After all, both of us are your fathers. They have to be filial.”
An Ning’s expression changed, feeling awkward and uneasy.
“Even at a time like this, you haven’t forgotten about the bet.”
“How can 1 forget such a big thing?” Lin Yi said.
“Now that there’s no one around, you can keep your promise.”
“You’re really heartless. I cast aside my father and came to take care of you. Yet, you’re actually discussing this bet with me. Don’t you have a conscience?!”
“Okay, then I don’t need you to take care of me. Just honor the bet.”
“Uh…” An Ning looked embarrassed. “No, I have to take care of you.”
“If you stay and take care of me, our father-daughter relationship will be set in stone.”
Because he suspected that the two people who assassinated him might come over in the next few days, Lin Yi didn’t want An Ning to stay here in case she got roped up in the trouble.
“Alright, alright, if you say it’s settled, it’s settled.”
An Ning gave in and started opening the items they had bought, preparing to have a meal with Lin Yi.
Lin Yi was speechless.
Why didn’t she refute?
“You’re admitting to it?”
“I admit to it,” An Ning said. “Do you want me to call you ‘Daddy’ now to make you feel good?”
F*ck!
In fact, Lin Yi wasn’t particularly interested in the father-daughter relationship thing. After all, those internet-famous models often called him that just to get closer to him.
However, now An Aning was insisting on staying in the hospital room to take care of him, which made things a bit tricky.
Even so, Lin Yi couldn’t say anything.
She was being kind. If he kept chasing her away, she would be sad.
Although Lin Yi’s arm could still move, An Ning fed him the entire meal.
Lin Yi had never thought that the first person to feed him would be someone other than Ji Qingyan and Liang Ruoxu.
Although his injuries were not serious, she still had to get an IV drip to reduce the inflammation at night. An Ning stayed behind and prepared to help Lin Yi watch the drip so that she could call the nurse if it ran low.
In reality, An Ning did not even need to do these tasks. Zhang Dayong had already reminded the nurse several times.
If something went wrong at a time like this, these nurses would be fired.
In the dead of the night, the cold moonlight shone from outside into the ward.
An Ning curled up and fell asleep on the bed beside him.
Lin Yi felt lucky to have met such a woman in such a strange city.
However, it also seemed to be a spot of misfortune.
Bingcheng, Jiangbei, Wangjiang Villa.
The Sun brothers sat on the sofa while Zheng Kunpeng sat at the side.
The two people who attacked Lin Yi stood in front of the three of them with nervous expressions.
The famous Sun Manlou was right in front of them. They wanted to control their emotions and try to calm themselves down, but they couldn’t.
To these gangsters, Sun Manlou was their idol. They could not remain calm in front of him.
“Are you sure you hit Lin Yi?”
Sun Manlou held a cigarette and asked expressionlessly.
“Positive, but I don’t know why he reacted in advance, so we missed his vitals and only hit his shoulder.”
The man looked nervous because he couldn’t tell what Sun Manlou was thinking.
“We can’t determine the exact extent of the damage yet. If we need to, we can go to the hospital to take a look..”
