Chapter 6: Xia Li Isn’t driving anymore. I’ll take this one

Zhang Jingjing didn’t say anything in response. Her mother had a point.

A house in Zhong Hai was so expensive that it could easily cost tens of millions. With Lin Yi’s salary, it would be difficult to ever buy a house in Zhong Hai.

Moreover, his shabby Shari was indeed a little cheap.

These were all real problems, and she had to face reality.

Knock, Knock, knock.

Jingjing put down her chopsticks and went to open the door.

“Lin Bro, you’re here.”

Lin Yi nodded. “Where’s Your mom? I’m here to deliver the rent.”

Jinlan followed from behind.

“It’s just rent. You just need to transfer the money. There’s no need to ask for leave to pa.s.s it to me.”

She didn’t think much of Lin Yi in private, but after meeting him, Jinlan found him polite and collected.

“I didn’t ask for leave. The company let me go, so I’ll be a free man from now on,” Lin Yi said.

Jinlan’s heart skipped a beat.

Lin Yi was fired from the company. If he continued to stay here, how was he going to pay the rent in the future?

With a beep, Jinlan’s WeChat suddenly rang. She saw that Lin Yi had transferred 4,000 yuan to her.

“The rent is 2,000 yuan. Why did you transfer 4,000 yuan to me?”

“I owe you 18 days worth of rent. I’ll pay for two months in advance. However, I won’t be staying here anymore.” Lin Yi said

“You won’t be staying here anymore?” Jinlan asked

When Wu Jinlan heard this, not only was she not reluctant to part with him, she was even a little happy.

This way, she would be able to find a richer tenant who would pay the rent on time.

“Yeah, I’m not going to be staying here anymore, I just came back to pack my things. I’m leaving now.” Lin Yi said

“I’m sorry, I overcharged you by almost a thousand dollars.” Wu Jinlan said

Lin Yi didn’t want to hit the smiling face. After all, he was so generous, and Jinlan was also being a lot more polite right now.

They had known each other for so long, and they still had a little bit of affection toward each other.

“It’s fine. I’m sorry for always being late with your rent.” Lin Yi said

“Jingjing, don’t be idle. Help your brother Lin with his work.” Wu Jinlan quickly snapped.

Although she despised Lin Yi for being poor, she still thought highly of his character.

He didn’t even live here anymore, yet he gave her an extra thousand dollars. Thus, she had to do some superficial work and could not be too cold toward him.

“Alright, I’ll go change.” Lin Yi said

Lin Yi did not have anything to pack. The most precious thing was the quilt he had brought out from the orphanage.

It was not anything valuable, but it meant a lot to him.

He could buy a new version of everything else, but he had to take the quilt with him.

Lin Yi carried the two sets of quilt in his arms as Wu Jinlan and Zhang Jingjing helped him bring the other little things downstairs for him.

It was a good thing that the deal didn’t work out. Money aside, Wu Jinlan still had a bit of humanity left in her.

“Lin Yi, you got fired from the company. What are you planning to do in the future?” Jinlan asked as she walked downstairs.

“I’m driving for Didi. That way, I shouldn’t starve to death.”

Jinlan and her mother looked at each other, instantly understanding each other’s thoughts.

Her mother’s words made sense.

One had to be realistic in a relations.h.i.+p. If one didn’t have a stable income, how could one live in the future?

“Mom, look, there’s a supercar parked downstairs!”

Zhang Jingjing yelled when she saw the silver sports car parked downstairs.

Unfortunately, she was car-blind. She didn’t know anything other than Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi.

Still, judging from the shape of the car, she knew that it was a sports car. It definitely wasn’t cheap.

“That’s weird. Who can afford to drive a sports car here in this old neighborhood?” Wu Jinlan muttered.

Obviously, she knew that this car wasn’t cheap.

“Lin Yi, Where’s your car? I don’t see it anywhere.”

Jinlan looked around for a while, but she didn’t see Lin Yi’s shabby Shari.

“I’m not driving the Shari anymore. I’ve swapped to this car.”

Lin Yi pressed the car key, and the Pagani’s gullwing door opened, giving Jinlan and Jingjing a fright.

“W-what did you say? This is your car?” Jingjing asked, her mouth agape.

“Huh? I just changed it today,” Lin Yi said.

“This car isn’t cheap, is it?”

“It’s not bad, it cost more than 20 million.”

Lin Yi put everything in the pa.s.senger seat as he spoke, clearly relaxed.

“L-Lin Yi, when did you get so rich? Aren’t you just a salaried worker?”

“Working was just to experience life,” Lin Yi joked, “Now, I’m going to pretending, I’m actually a rich second generation.”

After this, Lin Yi got into the driver’s seat and left.

Seeing Lin Yi’s disappearing taillights, Zhang Jingjing was in a bad mood.

“Mom, isn’t Lin Yi an orphan? He said his parents died a long time ago. How did he become a rich second generation?”

“Maybe he robbed his parents’ graves.”

“You said Lin Yi was poor and didn’t want us to be together. Now that he’s rich, can we…”

“Don’t think about those useless things.” Wu Jinlan replied.

“He wasn’t good enough for you in the past, but you’re not good enough for him now. It has nothing to do with you anymore. Go home and study.”

..

Half an hour later, Lin Yi drove to the Peninsula Hotel and met w.a.n.g Tianlong in the lobby.

“President Lin, the presidential suite has been prepared.”

On the way back, Lin Yi had already told Tianlong about the matter.

He was going to stay in the hotel for a few days, and he would buy a house when he had time.

Lin Yi nodded. “Help me carry the things in the car and bring some food over. I’ve been working all day, I’m starving.”

“Got it, Boss Lin. I’ll make the arrangements right away.”

Tianlong was very efficient, and everything was arranged for in less than half an hour.

After dinner, Lin Yi took a bath and enjoyed the pleasures of being rich.

Ring, Ring, Ring..

The phone on the side rang. It was w.a.n.g Ying, his ex-colleague.

w.a.n.g Ying was four years older than Lin Yi. She was a beautiful young lady.

She took good care of Lin Yi at work, but no one knew if she had other motives.

“Sis w.a.n.g, did you want to speak to me?” Lin Yi asked politely.

“Yi, your colleagues are reluctant to part with you after you left. They want to have dinner together as a way to send you off.”

“Thank you, Sis w.a.n.g. You can book the place. It’s my treat.” Lin Yi said generously.

“I said I’m sending you off. How can I let you spend your money?” w.a.n.g Ying answered, “I’ll see you at the usual place at 5:30 pm.”

The so-called ‘usual place’ was not the name of the restaurant, but rather, a restaurant called Yi Pin Ju.

It was where all the department dinners were held, and they always referred it as ‘the usual place’.

“Okay, I got it. I’ll definitely be there on time.”

“Okay, that’s all for now. I’ll see you there.”

After hanging up, Lin Yi looked at his watch. He still had two more hours to enjoy himself.

At that moment, a WeChat message popped up on Lin Yi’s phone. It was from Ji Qingyan.

“We’re almost done. Can you pick me up? I’m still staying at the construction bureau.”

“Of course,” Lin Yi replied. “I’ll be there in thirty minutes.”

The system reward was given to him by running orders. Now that he had a job, he had to accept it.

Time to work!

Awesome!
