“Don’t mind it too much,” Liang Ruoxu said. “I had no choice but to accept the mission that Uncle Chen assigned me.”

“I’m fine. He’s just doing his job and wants the medicine to be cheaper for the benefit of the commoners.” Lin Yi said.

“If it were me, I would probably do the same thing. I would want all the hospitals in Huaxia to close down. It would be better if there were no patients.”

Liang Ruoxu rested her cheek on one hand. Lin Yi’s pure heart was still burning.

“What about you? What are your plans for the future? Are you going to stay in Huashan Hospital forever?” Liang Ruoxu asked.

“With your current ability, you can become the head in a few more years.”

“I’m ready to resign after this surgery.”

“Resign? Is there any particular reason?”

“I’ve flirted with my fill of girls at the hospital. I’m planning to change to another job and flirt with someone new.”

“Your reason really makes me speechless.”

…

After dinner, Lin Yi returned to the hospital.

After the surgery, it was already past four in the afternoon. He drove to Chaoyang Group and prepared to return to Yunshui Villa with Ji Qingyan to pack a few clothes.

“Zhao Mo has already spent 35 billion yuan. The entire financial industry knows that someone wants to short Didi, but they still don’t know who the mastermind is.” After getting into the car, Ji Qingyan took off her sunglasses and said.

“Fortunately, Yuanyuan reacted in time and snapped up all of it. She managed to stabilize the situation.”

Lin Yi pondered for a moment. “I think he will run out of stocks by tomorrow morning. By then, Muddy Waters will be in trouble.”

“If your estimation is correct, they should act tomorrow.”

“I’ll wait for a good show then.” Lin Yi rubbed his palms together. “Let me see how capable this Muddy Waters LLC is.”

Ji Qingyan looked at Lin Yi with a bright smile. “I like your confidence.”

“I like your 36D body.”

“Pervert.”

After driving to Cloud Water Villa, Lin Yi felt a strange yet familiar feeling.

It had been a long time since he last came here.

Ji Qingyan did not rush to pack her things. After an hour, she finally came down while carrying a suitcase.

After packing up, the two of them went out for a meal before returning to Jiuzhou Pavilion.

Later, Qin Han, Liang Jinming, and Gao Zongyuan arrived at Jiuzhou Pavilion.

“Hello, Sister-in-Law!” Liang Jinming and Gao Zongyuan said in unison.

This time, Ji Qingyan’s expression was much more natural, and there was even a hint of joy on her face.

“Wait a moment. I’ll make tea and cut some fruits.”

Seeing the graceful Ji Qingyan, Qin Han said sourly,

“Did you save the galaxy in your previous life to meet such a good woman?”

“No, it’s because I’m handsome.”

“Get lost.”

In reality, people like Qin Han, Liang Jinming, and Gao Zongyuan were not the kind of people who treasured their freedom.

If they ever met a good girl, they might have gotten married long ago.

“How are things on your side?” Qin Han asked.

“I looked at the market just now. If I’m not wrong, you should have absorbed more than 30 billion yuan worth, right? Is there enough money left? We can gather more than 10 billion yuan for you.”

“More than enough.” Lin Yi said.

“The stocks in his hands should continue to be dumped until tomorrow morning. You don’t have to worry about me for the time being. I can still hold on.”

“Alright, if you have any difficulties, just say it. Don’t always try to show off alone. Bring the three of us along for the ride.”

“That’s right.” Liang Jinming ridiculed, “You even try to act cool in the process.”

“It’s not that I want to criticize you, but none of you are learning well. Why is there for me to act for?”

“F*ck, among the four of us, you’re the best at acting. How dare you still try to call us out?” Gao Zongyuan said.

“Since you claim you aren’t acting, you’ll treat us to drinks at Metropolis tonight. I want ten bottles of Ace of Spades. I’ll put them all on your tab,” Qin Han said.

“Cough, cough, cough…”

Ji Qingyan coughed lightly and said, “Do you want to eat some other fruits? I’ll go cut some more.”

“You guys go ahead. Put it on my tab. I haven’t been to that kind of place in a long time,” Lin Yi said.

“It’s not a good place anyway. It’s better to quit early. Isn’t it better to just stay at home? I really don’t have anything in common with you guys anymore.”

“F*ck!” Liang Jinming said, “Brother Qin, let’s go quickly. We can stop Brother Lin from having another chance to show off.”

“I wholeheartedly agree.”

After the trio left, Ji Qingyan cupped Lin Yi’s face. “Not bad.”

“I’m telling the truth. I’ve never been interested in places like that. They’re the ones who dragged me there.”

“Tsk, I don’t doubt that.” Ji Qingyan said, “The people there probably don’t even have as good a figure as me. You wouldn’t even like them.”

“You can’t say that. Although their figure and looks are not as good as yours, you can touch them however you want.”

With that, Lin Yi touched Ji Qingyan’s butt before returning to the study to work.

“Scoundrel!”

Ji Qingyan was already used to these teasing actions.

She was already comfortable with it.

Back in the study, Lin Yi continued working. Suddenly, he saw that there was a missed call on his phone. It was Zhao Wen.

Seeing Zhao Wen’s call, Lin Yi remembered something.

She had called him previously and said that Pfizer and the six major pharmaceutical companies seemed to want to discuss cooperating with him. Her call was likely because of this.

“Why are you looking for me?” Lin Yi called back.

“The representatives of the six major pharmaceutical companies and I have already arrived at the airport. We can reach Zhonghai by noon tomorrow. How about we arrange a time in the afternoon to meet?”

Lin Yi thought about it. He had a surgery in the morning and didn’t have time to receive them then. The afternoon would be just right.

“Alright, 1 p.m., Peninsula Hotel.”

“Okay.”

After hanging up, Lin Yi called Wang Tianlong and explained the details before focusing on his own matters.

…

Yanjing, Huayin Group, General Manager’s office.

Zhao Mo and the other three were all here.

However, compared to yesterday, the atmosphere in the office today was a little heavy.

It was like the dreary night sky, making one feel suffocated.

“Director Zhao, up until now, we’ve already dumped 32 billion, and Lingyun Group has absorbed it all,” Fu Zhengyi said.

“Damn it, where did this guy get so much money from?!” Zhao Mo cursed.

“Boss Gu has already investigated, Longxin is still in Lin Yi’s hands, it hasn’t been mortgaged yet,” Lu Xuan said.

“That’s strange,” Sun Ce said. “Sister Liang didn’t give him a loan either, so where did the money come from?”

“Do you think he is being backed by a consortium?” Lu Xuan asked.

“That’s unlikely,” Gu Changchuan said.

“If he had the support of a consortium, he wouldn’t have been able to live so peacefully for the past few days. They would have long acted to protect him. It’s impossible that they would just stand by and watch him fight alone.”

“Then the question is, where did he get his money from?” Lu Xuan asked.
