Chapter 2365: Chapter 2366: Despicable Trickery Chapter 2365: Chapter 2366: Despicable Trickery Over forty minutes later, the pair drove to Liang Xianghe’s ho.
On the way there, Lin Yi stopped to buy so things.
Since he was visiting Liang Ruoxu’s grandfather, Lin Yi didn’t dare to be casual and spent tens of thousands of dollars on so decent items.
After all, it had just passed the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and according to the traditions of the people in China, the New Year was not yet officially over. When visiting soone’s ho, it was natural not to co empty-handed.
Moreover, it was to see Liang Ruoxu’s grandfather.
Seeing the two co in, Yang Yuhua welcod them with a beaming smile.
“When you called just now, you said there was nothing important. Why did you still co?” Yang Yuhua’s tone was sowhat complaining:
“And even if you do co, why buy things? You young people are always competing over pointless stuff. Also, you’re pregnant now, and the situation is different from before. It’s all snow outside; if you were to fall, that would be disastrous.”
Liang Ruoxu chuckled, “He’s with , so there’s nothing to worry about.”
“Alright, alright, don’t stand at the door. Co in and sit down. I’ll make so tea for you.”
“Grandma, there’s no need to fuss. It’s like treating us as outsiders.”
“A new son-in-law cos to visit, shouldn’t I host properly?”
“What new son-in-law, old son-in-law, just be casual.”
“I’ll pour you so water; it’s very cold outside, warm up a bit.”
After saying that, Yang Yuhua glanced at Liang Xianghe.
“Why do you only know to eat? Mi Li and Lin Yi are here, and you don’t even say a word.”
Liang Xianghe gave Liang Ruoxu a glance and said indifferently:
“It was you who asked for him to co, right?”
“I didn’t call him. He ca on his own.”
“Co and sit down. I know what you’re up to,” Liang Xianghe said in his indifferent tone.
“I’ve told you not to call him, and yet in the end, you brought him here. What am I supposed to say to you?”
“He’s not an outsider. Helping our maternal family handle these affairs is normal,” Liang Ruoxu said as she sat on the couch.
“Besides, the child in my belly will take his surna when it’s born. It’s only right and proper for him, the father, to co over and help.”
“Old man, you are in charge of the research institute sector; we are colleagues after all. If there’s sothing to say, just say it. This matter is not trivial, and if not resolved in ti, it could even threaten the Liang family’s status. Just as Mi Li said, I am a son-in-law of the Liang family, it’s all right and proper.”
Liang Xianghe put down his chopsticks, fell silent for a long while, and slowly began speaking:
“The incident involved the leader of Group 7, nad Han Xiangyu.”
“Is it him?”
“You knew about him?”
“Not very well, just seen him a few tis.”
Snap.
Liang Xianghe took out a lighter and was about to light a cigarette when Yang Yuhua knocked it out of his hand.
“Mi Li is pregnant; if you want to smoke, do it outside. I’ve told you so many tis.”
Annoyed, Liang Xianghe stood up, and Lin Yi followed him to the balcony.
Liang Xianghe handed him a cigarette, and they both started smoking.
“When did this co to light?”
“Just the past couple of days,” Liang Xianghe said.
“But even when you guys brought back the items, I had already started to prevent these incidents, and then transferred so people from above to monitor the fifth to eighth teams. In the end, I discovered Han Xiangyu had so issues.”
Liang Xianghe flicked ash from his cigarette and continued:
“But since last night until now, we can’t get in touch with him. Investigations indicate he might have gone to Korea. I’m trying to figure out how to handle this, and then Mi Li called you.”
“Leave it to ; I’ll certainly bring him back.”
Liang Xianghe paused, “That would be a great help.”
“Of course.” Lin Yi said casually:
“Elder Lu probably doesn’t know about this yet, right?”
“Not yet, I’ll ntion it to him later. There’s no need for us to hide things from each other.”
“ntioning it to him is fine; after all, he’s the one in charge of the overall situation.”
“That’s what I think too.”
After chatting with Liang Xianghe, Lin Yi left with Liang Ruoxu.
Originally, the two planned to stay for dinner, but during the day, Qin Yingyue went shopping and brought back so items for Liang Ruoxu. They needed to et up with her, so they did not stay for dinner and instead t at a restaurant.
At this ti, Lin Jingzhan had already left Yanjing, preparing to handle his own affairs.
“If you’re busy, you can go. I’ll stay here with Mi Li for a few days,” Qin Yingyue said during the al.
Lin Yi nodded, “This matter is urgent; I can’t delay. I’ll leave after we eat. I should be back in a few days.”
“Go ahead, there’s nothing in Yanjing that needs your attention, and Mi Li is doing quite well. Her appetite has been good these days. Focus on the important matters.”
Initially, Liang Ruoxu was a bit nervous about calling Lin Yi to help the Liang family with their affairs, worried that Qin Yingyue would be unhappy. But seeing her support, it eased her mind.
After the al, Lin Yi dropped the two off at their ho and then took a taxi to the Central Guards Brigade.
This trip was mainly to et Ning Che; they had arranged to et there.
But this ti, coming to the Central Guard did not bring the usual sense of ease.
Everyone here seed to beco serious.
As if facing a great enemy.
“Team Leader Lin.”
Upon arriving at the gate, the guard greeted him with a smile.
“Happy New Year.” Lin Yi responded with a smile, ready to go inside.
“Happy New Year, Team Leader Lin.” The guard reached out to stop Lin Yi, “Hold on, you can’t go in just yet.”
“What’s the matter?”
“According to regulations, we must inspect you.”
“Huh? I have to be inspected?”
The guard showed a bitter face, “We’re just following protocols, we have to check. Just now Boss Liu ca, and we checked him too.”
“Go ahead then.”
Faced with such a situation, Lin Yi showed understanding, as it was a special circumstance.
After a thorough check, Lin Yi was allowed to go in.
When he reached Ning Che’s office, he found Qiu Yuluo there too; the two of them were eating sunflower seeds and discussing buying makeup.
“You two are so free?”
Seeing Lin Yi enter, Ning Che moved over to make space for him on a chair.
“A bit of leisure amidst the busy tis,” Ning Che glanced at Lin Yi, “The New Year is almost over, and you didn’t co to see us.”
“Hey hey hey, don’t lump ‘us’ together. Whether he cos or not has nothing to do with ,” Qiu Yuluo quickly clarified.
Lin Yi walked over and pinched Ning Che’s face with a laugh.
“Been busy with family issues, otherwise I’d have co over by now.”
Clearly, Ning Che wasn’t really angry, he just chuckled:
“You really made a na for yourself this ti, even catching a Freemasons’ deputy supervisor. Impressive.”
“It wasn’t my doing; my dad caught him,” Lin Yi spread his hands and said:
“I had no idea they would send so many people over.”
