Chapter 2348: Chapter 2349: The Waves of the Era
“Promoted, promoted?”
Li Xianghui and Zhang Wenli were both stunned, it took them a long ti to regain their composure.
“Indeed, this is internal information, it’s already finalized, but since it’s almost New Year, the official docunts haven’t co out yet, probably have to wait until the eighth day when work officially resus.”
“This…”
The sudden change made Li Xianghui feel as if he had gone from hell to heaven.
According to his guess, the best destiny for him would have been to be transferred to a departnt like the Household Registration Bureau to handle office work.
Unexpectedly, he got promoted two levels!
“The upper managent hasn’t forgotten about us, even though we’re wounded, I’m already content,” Zhang Wenli said, wiping her tears.
“After all, Brother Li has paid his dues, it’s quite normal for the higher-ups to give us this acknowledgnt,” Lin Yi said:
“People are sentintal, and with this incident, you probably have seen so people’s true colors.”
Lin Yi’s words were straightforward, and everyone knew who he was referring to.
But Li Xianghui is famously too nice and wouldn’t speak carelessly like Lin Yi, he still politely said:
“Second Uncle, Third Uncle, you both have issues at ho, I won’t keep you here for dinner any longer.”
“This…”
The two of them stood there, stunned, not knowing what to say.
They ca today indeed for money.
But that was knowing Li Xianghui was in bad shape, and moreover, dical treatnts had cost a lot of money, and with the job gone, they feared they couldn’t repay their own debts, so they wanted to get their money back as soon as possible.
Now, it turned out, not only did he not lose his job, but he also got promoted, with an annual salary of at least 400,000 as a base!
Most importantly, his connections will undoubtedly be better than before, and they might need him at so point.
This incident has ruined everything.
“Little Hui, actually the family issues are not urgent, and Second Uncle hasn’t seen you for a long ti. Let’s stay today and have a good drink,” Li Youtian said.
“Yes, yes, Third Uncle will join you for a drink too,” Li Youliang said:
“And about the money, I thought about it just now, even if I lack money for my wedding, it won’t make much difference. I will transfer it back to you later, keep it for now, you’re not yet fully recovered, there are many expenses, health cos first.”
“There’s no need to transfer the money back, keep it,” Li Xianghui said:
“Lin Yi has transferred an extra 5000 yuan to each of you, payday loans don’t have this much interest, so let it be.”
Seeing that Li Xianghui had issued an order to leave, and his expression not softening at all, they felt embarrassed to stay any longer and left dejectedly.
After they left, with no outsiders in the house, Li Xianghui anxiously asked:
“Lin Yi, how did you know about this?”
This was what puzzled Li Xianghui; given such significant news, even if internal information was known, Liu Guangxian should have known it first, not Lin Yi.
“enenen…I have a girlfriend, she has so background, so…”
“Alright, alright, I understand,” Li Xianghui laughed heartily.
“Lin Yi, you’re impressive,” Zhang Wenli said with a smile:
“In today’s society, it’s indeed hard to survive without so connections, maybe your girlfriend can help you out in the future.”
“Sister-in-law, don’t hold such expectations for him,” Gu Yiran rolled his eyes and said:
“His girlfriend, trying to complete all twelve zodiac signs, it’s doubtful if it can even last.”
“Hey, hey, hey, don’t ruin my reputation in front of sister-in-law.”
The two bickered for a while, and then lunch was almost ready.
However, both Lin Yi and Gu Yiran only had a bite as they both had things to attend to in the afternoon, not wanting to waste too much ti.
Li Xianghui did not push them to drink more. Around one in the afternoon, they ended the al.
After leaving Li Xianghui’s house, Lin Yi dropped Gu Yiran ho and then drove to Wang Ying’s place.
“You’re finally here, I’ve missed you so much.”
Seeing Lin Yi enter, Wang Ying ca forward and hugged his neck.
“Have you been waiting anxiously?”
Lin Yi said, looking at the packed suitcase next to him, supporting Wang Ying’s butt.
“Not anxious, as long as I can get back today, it’s fine since it’s only New Year’s tomorrow. It’s just that I haven’t seen you for so long, I missed you a bit.”
“It’s just that I’ve been too busy recently, really didn’t have ti.”
“It’s okay, I understand, there are so many people you need to deal with, plus President Ji is pregnant, I haven’t complained.”
Lin Yi grinned and pinched Wang Ying’s butt, “That’s why they say mature won are better, much more understanding than those young girls.”
“Of course, that’s my advantage.”
“Let’s go, it’s getting late, tomorrow is New Year’s Day, let’s get ho early to be with the family.”
“Alright.”
Lin Yi helped carry her suitcase, and together they went downstairs and took her to the airport.
After seeing off Wang Ying, Lin Yi didn’t go ho but went to Yan Ci’s company.
Finding the company sparsely staffed as most had gone ho for the New Year.
“Tomorrow is New Year’s Day, why are you still here, when are you leaving?” Lin Yi asked in the office.
Yan Ci reacted similarly to Wang Ying, clinging to him, reluctant to let go.
“There is a producer coming to Zhong Hai tonight, we have planned a al to discuss a new movie.”
“What ti will it be over, I’ll co to pick you up.”
Yan Ci looked delighted, “No need, we’ve t several tis, and she’s a woman, don’t worry.”
“So, when are you planning to go ho? Tomorrow?”
“enenen… After dinner tonight, I’ll go ho and try to arrive before dawn.”
“Then take my plane ho, it’s stationed at the airport.”
“Thank you, Director Lin.” Yan Ci blinked at Lin Yi, “Got anything to do later?”
“Do you have sothing?”
“Not really, I’m free for these few hours, if you’re free, I thought we could go out for a walk.”
“Let’s go.”
“Hehe, wait for to change my clothes.”
Yan Ci took out a black coat from the office wardrobe, wearing black leggings underneath that outlined a perfect curve, and putting on that coat, her strong womanly deanor was undoubtedly highlighted.
After leaving her company, they didn’t do anything special, first went to see a movie, then found a coffee shop, sat down, and chatted about everyday trivialities, nothing substantial.
For both of them, this mode of interaction was the best.
Later in the evening, Yan Ci went to the banquet, and Lin Yi didn’t wander around but drove leisurely ho.
The streets were fully imbued with the festive atmosphere, everyone’s faces beaming with joyous smiles.
In this suffocating era, the Lunar New Year provided everyone with a sufficient reason to indulgently enjoy life.
Lin Yi suddenly recalled a line from “A Tale of Two Cities”.
“It was the best of tis, it was the worst of tis.”
In these tumultuous currents of the tis, he was rely an inconspicuous spray.
