"Why do I feel like there’s more to what you’re saying?"
"As long as you can understand the underlying ssage." Lin Yi said earnestly:
"We should focus on our own lives. You’re not getting any younger, so hurry up and find a boyfriend to put your parents at ease."
Xiao Bing supported her head with one hand.
"Honestly, ordinary n don’t appeal to anymore. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll have to find soone in our circle."
"Even though you have the freedom to love, I still don’t recomnd it."
"Hehe, even if I look within our circle, I would stick to our group, like Sister Ying and the others, and start an office romance."
"That’s mutual affection; just let it go. Try to find soone outside the circle." Lin Yi said:
"This circle isn’t that great, unless you want to end up a widow soday. It’s better to find soone ordinary, regardless of wealth or status. As long as they treat you well, respect their parents, and have good character, that’s more important than anything else."
"What you’re saying sounds just like my dad."
"I’ve experienced what your dad has, so naturally, I have similar thoughts." Lin Yi replied:
"Otherwise, with your current status, how many people are good enough for you?"
"True, and even if soone is good enough, they might not be a good person."
"Broaden your horizons, don’t limit yourself to this circle."
"Got it, Lin Bro."
After discussing personal matters, they chatted about other things, and then Xiao Bing drove Lin Yi back.
By the ti they returned to the neighborhood, it was already past seven in the evening.
During this ti, Ma Weiguo had called to ask what Lin Yi was up to, and Lin Yi brushed it off with a random excuse.
When he got ho, everyone had already finished dinner.
Lin Yi had a light al and lay down on the sofa.
Little Nuonuo and Ji Qingyan were reading a picture book, attentively listening to the story.
For Lin Yi, this was the best life.
The next morning, Lin Yi went to work as usual.
Even though the person was caught, the flyers still needed to be posted.
Leisurely, Lin Yi continued putting up flyers.
He finished his work for the morning.
In the process of posting flyers, he also collected a few cardboard boxes to give to Liu Dagang.
Slowly, Lin Yi arrived at Building 27.
He walked up the stairs to check the firefighting equipnt there.
He could have slacked off, but Lin Yi just wanted to find sothing to do.
He couldn’t stand being too idle.
On reaching the 27th floor, he found a bundle of cardboard boxes neatly tied together.
Lin Yi added the boxes he had collected on top and prepared to take the elevator down to check other floors.
Just then, sounds of an argunt ca from behind.
"How will I take care of you, living alone in Zhong Hai? Hurry up and sell this house and co with to Jing City."
"I don’t need you to take care of . I have a job and am doing just fine here. You can go back if you’ve nothing else."
Following this, the iron door outside the apartnt opened.
Liu Dagang and his son ca out.
They happened to see Lin Yi waiting for the elevator there.
"Young man, you’re here."
Seeing Lin Yi, Liu Dagang smiled.
"Yeah, I’m here to check the firefighting equipnt."
"I’m going out for a walk, let’s go together."
"What do you an go? We haven’t finished talking yet." Liu Chuanlong said sternly.
"I’m not selling the house, no matter what you say."
Liu Dagang’s stubborn temper flared up too, and he walked into the elevator with Lin Yi.
"No way! You must sell the house and co with to Jing City."
Liu Chuanlong stepped forward and grabbed his father’s arm.
Roughly pulling him back.
Liu Dagang was caught off guard and fell over.
With a thud, he fell to the ground.
By a stroke of bad luck, there was a child’s bicycle right there, and his head hit it.
A three-centiter cut was made on his head.
"Ouch..."
Liu Dagang winced in pain, curling up his body.
Liu Chuanlong stood frozen, montarily unsure of what to do.
Lin Yi, quick on his feet, imdiately went forward to help him up.
"Does your arm hurt?"
In Lin Yi’s view, the cut on the forehead was a minor issue that could be handled by stopping the bleeding in ti.
At his age, worrying about disfigurent was unnecessary.
If it was a fracture, that would be a bigger problem.
"It doesn’t hurt much."
"Try moving it a bit."
Following Lin Yi’s instructions, Liu Dagang moved his arm without any discomfort.
"Co on, I’ll take you to get your forehead wound treated."
Liu Dagang left with Lin Yi, while Liu Chuanlong stood there, dumbfounded.
He felt a sense of relief.
Thank goodness it was Lin Yi who encountered them, and he handled the situation; otherwise, he would have to deal with it himself.
It saved him a lot of trouble.
Exiting the unit door, Lin Yi took Liu Dagang out of the neighborhood and to a clinic at the entrance.
Since it was just a surface wound, disinfecting it and applying gauze were sufficient; no stitches were needed.
Before leaving, Lin Yi also bought so gauze and iodine for Liu Dagang to use later.
"Have they been talking to you about the house these days?"
Liu Dagang walked slowly, hunching over, sighing as he went.
"Every chance they get, they co over. How on earth did I raise a son like this?"
Liu Dagang’s eyes were filled with tears.
Full of grievance and unwillingness.
Lin Yi felt helpless too.
So people work diligently and tirelessly their whole life.
Yet in the end, they still don’t receive a good outco.
Heaven is not fair.
"Why don’t I find you a place to stay for a few days? Once they can’t find you, they’ll leave."
Faced with such matters, Lin Yi had nurous ways to handle them.
But the problem was, these weren’t his family issues, so he wasn’t in a position to intervene too much.
"I’m not leaving! Why should I leave?"
Liu Dagang stubbornly said, "That’s my ho. I’m the father; can I be afraid of him?"
"I understand your feelings, but this is an effective way to resolve the problem."
"It’s fine, I just didn’t react earlier. Next ti it happens, I’ll beat him up."
"Calm down a bit." Lin Yi said with a smile:
"At your age, who can you beat up?"
"I’m his dad. Would he dare lay hands on ?"
"In theory, you make sense."
Slowly, Lin Yi escorted Liu Dagang back ho.
But at the door, Liu Dagang took 200 yuan out of his pocket.
"Is this enough for the dical expenses? Take it."
"If I were short of that 200 yuan, I wouldn’t have taken you to the doctor."
Lin Yi pushed the money back.
"Get well at ho. You’ve got my phone number, call if you need anything."
"Take it, or I won’t feel at ease."
"It’s fine. When you have ti, just buy a drink."
"That’ll work too, I do like to have a drink."
"I’m on the night shift tomorrow. I’ll prepare the food; you bring the drinks, and we’ll have a drink together."
"Promise you’ll co tomorrow."
"Don’t worry, I will."
