Chapter 1853: Don’t Stop Them
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The next morning, the two of them had breakfast together at the hotel. Then, Ning Che returned to the Central Guards Brigade and prepared to help Lin Yi.
Lin Yi bought some breakfast and sent it to Li Chuhan and Qiao Xin.
Li Chuhan’s condition improved day by day. When he returned in the morning, she could already sit up on her own.
“Brother Lin, don’t you have something to deal with?” Qiao Xin asked as she took the breakfast.
“I still have some preparation to do. I’ll leave tomorrow.”
“Oh okay.”
After a day, Lin Yi didn’t go anywhere. He stayed at the hospital to accompany Li Chuhan.
Because Lin Yi gave Li Chuhan a lot of nourishment every day, she recovered faster than he had imagined.
When she went downstairs today, she did not need to use a wheelchair, but she still needed someone to support her and had to walk slowly.
However, Lin Yi didn’t plan to continue giving her anymore supplements. Otherwise, her body would have a disproportionate amount of nutrition. If this continued, she would get a nosebleed.
At around five o’clock in the evening, Ning Che called him and told him that she had obtained the information. Then, she sent it over via email.
In the information sent by Ning Che, Lin Yi found something very interesting.
There were a total of two members from Team 4 of the Central Guards Brigade in Chuansheng.
One of them was surnamed Wei, named Wei Yulong, and the other was surnamed Zhu. She was Zhu Junchi, who he had beaten up a few days ago.
Both of them were members of Team 4.
Lin Yi smacked his lips. Wasn’t this too much of a coincidence?
Then, Lin Yi looked at their information.
He realized that the companies that these two families belonged to were not among the top in Chuansheng.
The Wei family was ranked ninth in Chuansheng and the Zhu family’s company was ranked twelfth.
If they were so small in Chuansheng, then they were nothing on the national level.
On the other hand, the Zhou family’s market value was ranked sixth in Chuansheng.
It was much higher than others, but that didn’t matter.
In a country like Huaxia, simply being wealthy was not enough.
Power was their ultimate goal.
Because often, a single government decree could create countless wealthy individuals.
This was vastly different from those capitalist countries.
In countries like the Meiguo and Sunrise Land, it was the wealthy who built the era.
But in Huaxia, it was the opposite.
It was the era that created the wealthy.
And the era was created by those in power.
Therefore, these great families never stopped pursuing power.
From this information, Lin Yi realized how much these great families concealed their true strength.
If one were to compare the real family standings, the Wei and Zhu families would undoubtedly rank among the top two.
But now, one was ranked ninth, and the other twelfth.
They truly kept a low profile, developing themselves in secret without revealing anything.
After reading the information of the two families, Lin Yi looked at the information of the others in Team 4.
Almost all of them were the same as these two families. None of them were among the top three of their respective provinces.
They were all very low-key.
However, the more this was the case, the more worried Lin Yi was.
Families like this had patience that far exceeded that of ordinary people.
When they acted, they would astonish everyone, leaving no chance for others.
Lin Yi smacked his lips.
Bringing along Song Jinmin as a bodyguard for this trip to Chuansheng was definitely a wise decision. It would be best if he could be useful; if not, he could still serve as added protection.
The next morning, Lin Yi didn’t rush to leave. He first fed Li Chuhan, then gave her a massage to relax her muscles.
“Sister Li, who gives a better massage, me or Brother Lin?” Qiao Xin asked with a grin.
“Your Brother Lin,” Li Chuhan said gently.
“I figured as much. I even studied professional nursing, but my technique isn’t as good as Brother Lin’s.”
Lin Yi smirked inwardly. Did you think my skills from the past two years of intense practice were for nothing?
After finishing everything at around eight in the morning, Lin Yi contacted Ning Che and Qiu Yuluo, and the three of them met at the airport.
Since they were taking a private jet, they arrived in Chengdu in just over two hours, reaching the local martyrs’ cemetery before noon.
The three of them were dressed in black. Lin Yi wore sunglasses and a black mask, holding a bouquet of white chrysanthemums as they got out of the car at the cemetery entrance.
“Haha, your kite is too ugly. It doesn’t look good at all. It’s not even as high as my butterfly kite.”
“Yours is not. My eagle kite was made for me by my grandfather. It’s better than yours.”
“Tsk, let’s see whose kite flies higher.”
“Haha, I’m faster than you. My kite will definitely go higher than yours…”
When the three of them got out of the car, they saw a group of children flying kites at the door. Qiu Yuluo could not help but frown.
What was the deal with making so much noise in such a solemn place?
“You two go in first. I’ll get someone to take care of this.”
“Let’s not,” Lin Yi said in a low voice.
“Let them play here.”
“But this is a cemetery. Don’t you think it’s too noisy?”
Lin Yi pointed in the direction of the cemetery and said calmly,
“What do you think those people inside were working so hard for during their lives?”
Lin Yi’s words stunned the two of them.
“Wasn’t it just so that the future Huaxian people could eat their fill and wear warm clothes so that their future children could grow up happily without worries?” Lin Yi heaved a sigh of relief and said earnestly.
“Isn’t the state of these children the goal they fought for back then? Now that they’ve all achieved it, in my opinion, we should let them fly the kite higher and tell the people inside that Huaxia is what they looked forward to back then.”
Their expressions were unnatural, but they quickly let it go. A smile appeared on their lips.
“You’re right. I wasn’t thinking it through.”
They then walked past the child who was flying a kite at the gate. Under Qiu Yuluo’s lead, the three of them arrived at Zhou Liang’s tombstone.
“Brother, I’m here to see you.”
Lin Yi squatted down and placed the white chrysanthemum in front of Zhou Liang’s tombstone.
He reached out and gently touched the photo on it.
“If I had been more careful back then, this wouldn’t have happened. I’m the one at fault.”
Lin Yi took out two bottles of baijiu from Ning Che’s bag. He opened one bottle and placed it in front of Zhou Liang’s tombstone. Then, he opened the other bottle and took a big gulp.
“I might not be able to go with you for the massage, but 1’11 definitely bring you along when we land on the island.”
Lin Yi’s hand gently swept across the marble patterns. “No matter what, we can’t lose anyone else in Team 1.”
Lin Yi took the remaining half bottle and drank it in one gulp.
“I know that you’re the only son in the Zhou family, but don’t worry. As long I’m around, I can guarantee that your Zhou family will prosper. I’ll help you take care of your parents. Although I can’t replace you, I can help you take care of them.”
“Hu…”
Lin Yi exhaled heavily. “Don’t be anxious down there. I’ve committed too many sins in my life. 1 can’t go to heaven. In a few decades, I’ll go down to accompany you. Wait for me.”
With that, Lin Yi sat cross-legged in front of the tombstone for a long time. This lasted for more than half an hour before he regained his composure. He stood up and bowed to the tombstone before leaving the cemetery with the two women.
When the three of them came out of the cemetery, the children flying kites outside were still laughing.
For some reason, the kite were now flying higher, and the laughter had become louder.
They seemed to have become even happier..
