Chen Zhengnan clenched his fists tightly, too angry to say a word.
Lin Yi smiled smugly, but didn’t say anything else and turned to leave.
"Let’s go back too. We’ve caught so many people from overseas organizations, we need to interrogate them thoroughly. We’ve got a busy ti ahead."
Lin Yi’s words were like an invisible slap across the faces of Long Ying and the others, but they could only stare in frustration, helpless.
The two got into the car but didn’t leave imdiately.
Because Liang Xianghe’s family building was right here in this compound, so they drove to his house.
Liang Xianghe was at ho reading the newspaper and listening to the radio.
Seeing the two enter, he looked up at them.
"Have the people been sent over?"
"They’ve been sent." Lin Yi nodded, saying, "The Chen family shouldn’t be affected much, but Chen Zhengnan’s position is definitely unstable."
Liang Xianghe put down the newspaper and took a sip of tea.
"Unexpectedly, Ma Tiesheng will be promoted. He’s a decent person, not belonging to any faction. If he becos the head of Long Ying, don’t hold any hostility towards them anymore."
"I understand, our enemy is the Chen family, not Long Ying."
Liang Xianghe nodded, "Have you interrogated the other two groups? Where are they from?"
"They just sent a ssage. One group is from Anglo, and the other refuses to speak. Their lips are so tight, they feel like Mammon’s people."
"Continue the interrogation when you return. The Chen family should settle down for a while. Proceed with your work without letting them distract you."
"Got it."
After chatting with Liang Xianghe for a while, the two left. By now it was late, and they found a hot pot restaurant, got a bottle of baijiu, and had a very pleasant al.
"You might not be needed for the work ahead. What are you planning to do?"
"I plan to go ho." Lin Yi stretched lazily, "I’ve been away for so long, it’s ti to go back and see them."
"I think you should be careful. The Chen family’s focus might not be on the old man anymore. They might take you as their target."
"I don’t think there’s much to worry about. They can’t find another breakthrough elsewhere. The only viable direction is Lingyun Group, but behind Lingyun Group, my mother-in-law is overseeing things. The Chen family can’t cause any waves."
After pausing, Lin Yi continued:
"Moreover, in this short-selling battle, Lingyun Group has won triumphantly. The plan for the optical lithography factory has just been expanded, and nobody dares to touch Lingyun Group."
"But rember, the Chen family is not easy to deal with. Give them the slightest opportunity, and they’ll continue to make small moves behind the scenes."
"Don’t worry, I know what’s going on."
After talking about work for a while, the two shifted the topic to other matters.
After the al, they found a hotel, enjoyed a harmonious night together, and then returned ho satisfied.
Although the affairs with the Central Guards Brigade were resolved, Lin Yi didn’t rush to leave.
He spent another three days with Liang Ruoxu, allowing himself to return to a family-oriented state.
During these three days, Lin Yi wasn’t exactly stress-free.
The specific plan for the optical lithography factory was out, and next up was holding etings to discuss the best location for the factory, and tackling certain technical challenges were all preliminary tasks that needed doing.
Due to these reasons, Lin Yi attended several etings with Shen Shuyi, sharing his insights, which accelerated the progress of the plan significantly.
Besides, the punishnt for Long Ying had been decided.
As Liang Xianghe predicted, Chen Zhengnan was reassigned. Although it was a lateral transfer, the power in his hands decreased significantly.
Such an incident made it unlikely for him to rise further at his age, and it was a blow to the Chen family.
Chen Zhengnan was moved aside, and Ma Tiesheng was promoted.
This outco made the Chen family even more frustrated, because Ma Tiesheng was responsible for the experint lab. Instead of being demoted after issues arose, he was promoted, while Chen Zhengnan beca the scapegoat.
Clever observers knew that in this struggle, the Chen family lost, with Chen Zhengnan as the sacrificial lamb.
Three days later, Lin Yi boarded the return flight.
In a rare gesture, Ji Qingyan and Little Nuonuo ca to pick him up.
Besides them, Qin Han and the other two were also present.
Seeing Lin Yi exit, Little Nuonuo wiggled her short legs and dashed towards him.
"Daddy!"
Lin Yi stepped forward to pick her up, nuzzling his face against her soft cheek.
"While Daddy was away, did you listen to Mommy?"
"Of course I did. Mommy is the person I love the most, I definitely listen to her."
In Lin Yi’s arms, Little Nuonuo said earnestly.
Holding her, Lin Yi noticed the difference between his two children.
His son was slightly introverted and not talkative, whereas his daughter was a chatterbox, prone to blurting out odd comnts that sent people into fits of laughter.
After leaving the airport, the group got into the car. Initially, Qin Han planned to go out for a al to celebrate Lin Yi’s return, but since the family had already prepared dinner, they went ho instead, inviting He Yuanyuan to join this rare gathering.
That night, everyone drank a bit too much. Since nobody was leaving, they stayed over.
The next morning, everyone gathered for breakfast.
This ti, they discussed many work-related matters, as all three companies had invested in the optical lithography factory project, necessitating so updates.
After breakfast, Lin Yi went to Lingyun Group, t with the executives to catch up on the company’s progress, and rearranged a few things before feeling assured enough to leave.
In the following two days, Lin Yi was busier than expected.
The last group’s lips were finally loosened, revealing they were indeed Mammon’s people, but without extracting anything useful, the operation was abandoned without costs.
Additionally, Li Chuhan, Yan Ci, and Wang Ying also enjoyed shared monts, making their days quite pleasant.
Once all tasks were completed, Lin Yi felt much more relaxed, ready to begin the next phase of system tasks.
After dinner, Ji Qingyan played with Little Nuonuo in the yard. The setting sun shone on mother and daughter, reinforcing a sense of tranquility.
Lin Yi sat on the bench in the yard, thought to himself:
"System, initiate the new profession."
[New profession initiated: Journalist.]
[Host, please claim the new profession’s welco package: 10 million cash, Journalist Certificate.]
"A journalist, huh."
Seeing the words flashing in his mind, Lin Yi beca slightly eager about this profession.
Feeling that this profession had so uniqueness to it, it might be interesting to pursue.
"Claim."
As Lin Yi spoke, his phone received a notification, confirming the arrival of 10 million.
Simultaneously, the system notification sounded again.
[System task: Beco a journalist, reward 50,000 master-level driving skills.]
