Thinking of this, Lin Yi dialed Xiao Bing’s number again.
"Lin Bro."
"They went to Lijiang, took the 10:14 flight, they should have just landed now. You need to find the two people from the photo as quickly as possible. I’m afraid they’ll sneak across the border."
"Understood."
After hanging up, Lin Yi stretched lazily.
Though urgent, handing it over to Xiao Bing makes it no big deal.
Cre-eak—
Just then, the eting room door swung open.
Chen Yuying walked in from outside.
"How’s it going, did you find any information?"
"Went to Lijiang for fun. I have friends over there, asked them to help look."
"Went to Lijiang?"
Chen Yuying was first surprised then angry.
"Getting more and more disobedient, just a few quiet days and ran off on her own."
"Probably she’s been stifled for a while, naturally playful, it’s understandable," Lin Yi said:
"You called her and her phone was off, she should be on the plane."
Lin Yi didn’t voice his assumptions.
He planned to handle this himself, no need to worry her.
"Wait till she returns, see how I deal with her!"
"Alright, calm down, put your mind at ease and focus on work."
Clearly, although Chen Yuying was angry, her worry was light.
After all, she just snuck out for fun, and it’s a popular tourist spot, so it’s not a big concern.
"Thanks for your effort, I’ll transfer fifty thousand dollars to your friend later, let’s not have them work for nothing."
"No need for the money, go ahead with your work, don’t worry about the rest."
"Alright, thank you."
"Small matter."
"Anything for to do at the company? If not, I’ll leave first."
"Nothing for now, take care of your family matters first, with her not ho, take a couple of days off."
Lin Yi nodded, didn’t say much else, grabbed his car keys and left.
Heading back to Lingyun Group to continue handling Kaijie Group’s affairs.
...
Lijiang Airport.
"Little Xi, didn’t you say your boyfriend would pick us up? Where is he?"
"He has so business, couldn’t make it, he’s waiting at the hotel. Once we arrive, we’ll eat first, then wander a bit, and have proper fun tomorrow."
"I want to call my sister, I snuck out this ti, she might be furious, at least let her know I’m safe."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yunxi’s face changed.
"No calls! If your sister knows you ca out with , she’ll definitely be unhappy and may drag you back."
"It’s not as serious as you say, if I don’t tell my sister, I won’t feel settled and can’t enjoy myself."
"But your sister doesn’t like . If she finds out we’re out together, she’ll definitely be angrier, so no calls."
Chen Yutong was worried.
Though she loved fun, she had principles.
She felt she should at least call to let her know.
"It’s not that serious, I’ll still make the call, otherwise, I can’t enjoy myself."
"No calls!"
Seizing the chance as Chen Yutong wasn’t paying attention, Zhou Yunxi snatched her phone.
"Why did you grab my phone?"
"Oh, nothing, I just don’t want you to contact your sister," Zhou Yunxi earnestly said:
"Besides, you know how strict she is with you. If you call, this trip will be wasted."
"But..."
"Enough, no buts. The car is waiting up front, let’s hurry and get in."
"Alright."
Chen Yutong didn’t think any further, picked up her luggage, and got into a cab outside the airport.
The car was filled with smoke, making Chen Yutong cough.
She glanced at the driver, wearing a black tank top, tattoos on his arms, short hair, didn’t seem like a good person.
"Little Xi, we should switch cars, there’s no need to take this one."
"It’s peak tourist season, hard to get a car. My boyfriend booked this way in advance."
Without more words, Chen Yutong looked at the driver again.
Found he was still smoking, paying no attention to her.
He even showed a look of impatience.
"Driver, start the car now, please."
The driver said nothing, started the car.
Sitting in the back, Chen Yutong watched him quietly.
Planning to call for a complaint after getting off.
"Why am I feeling sleepy."
Chen Yutong yawned, looking drowsy, tears streaming.
"Probably tired from the flight," Zhou Yunxi said:
"Take a nap, I’ll wake you at the hotel."
"Alright, good."
Yawning again, Chen Yutong couldn’t help but succumb to sleep, resting against the window.
Zhou Yunxi eyed her, seeing she was asleep, her gaze turned cold.
"Drive faster, let’s get out soon."
"Okay."
...
Back at Lingyun Group, Lin Yi returned to his office.
Kaijie Group’s stock price has stabilized, signs of a rebound are present.
Including its subsidiary Willner Company, the stock price is very stable too.
Stabilizing stocks in a day, Kaijie Group’s prowess is indeed impressive.
Knock knock knock—
Then, his office door knocked, Qi Xianzhao entered.
"Director Lin, have you checked Kaijie Group’s and Willner’s stock prices? The expected outco didn’t happen."
"Don’t rush, take it slow. They must be repurchasing shares sold by stockholders, surely their funds are tight," Lin Yi said:
"Besides, you must know, their stock price is inflated. Apart from fending off normal fallbacks, they have to absorb the inflated part too."
"If so, the required funds would be unimaginable."
"Indeed. I bet they’re not as relaxed as they seem. At this point, those Wall Street guys will also take advantage, not letting them ease through."
Lin Yi looked at the screen’s stock price, "When it falls again, it’s the start of a gradual collapse."
"But with Kaijie Group’s capability, could a real collapse happen?"
"A real collapse might not, major banks would help at crucial tis. Our aim is to bleed them," Lin Yi said:
"When hitting, it must hurt the dog, or it’s a wasted effort."
"In that case, I plan to issue a statent saying the group will hold the dostic market firmly and won’t sell internal docunts, to stoke their fire."
"Do it, timing is perfect, don’t kill them at once, exhaust their funds slowly."
"Understood."
The whole afternoon, Lin Yi was busy handling these matters.
Until he received a call from Xiao Bing.
"Lin Bro, we couldn’t find the person you ntioned, it’s like they’ve vanished into thin air."
