After talking about the medicine, Zhao Dongmei sent Lin Yi and the others out, then watched them drive away.

“Lin Yi, you really know how to fool people,” Ji Qingyan complained in the car.

“Do I? It was all from the bottom of my heart.”

Peng Xingguo remained silent, sighing inwardly.

This young man!

After sending Peng Xingguo home, the two of them wanted to buy some groceries and go home to cook, but Zhang Shumin had already prepared the meal and made Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan stay back.

“How did it go today? Did it work out?”

“It cost me three million to settle this.” Lin Yi picked up a piece of pork rib and said bitterly,

“Teacher Peng choosing to be with you is really a perfect match. That woman called Zhao Dongmei is on a completely different level from Teacher Zhang.”

“As long as it was cuessful,” Zhang Shumin said with a smile. “Little Yi, eat the ribs. I stewed them in a pressure cooker for more than half an hour. Eat more.”

“Teacher Zhang, your pork ribs are really delicious.”

“A woman like you who can both teach and cook is the best type match for Huaxian men. You’re much better than that Zhao.”

“You’d think so, wouldn’t you?”

“Of course. You’re too outstanding,” Lin Yi said. “And today, Teacher Peng praised you in front of that Zhao person. I feel relieved. The next time I get the medicine, I really want Teacher Peng to go with me and anger her again.”

“No problem. I’ll get Old Peng to go with you next time,” Zhang Shumin said. “Little Yi, try this prawn. It’s good for your body.”

Ji Qingyan thought, ‘He sold Ms. Peng out again so easily?’

Peng Xingguo,’Who am I? Where am I? What is going on? Am I just a tool?’

“Thank you, Teacher Zhang. It’s definitely a blessing for Teacher Peng to be able to find you.”

“Here, eat more. That’s what everyone around me says.”

Zhang Shumin picked up a few more ribs and prawns for Lin Yi.

“Qingyan, Yi likes ribs and prawns. Learn to make him some when you have nothing better to do. Don’t keep throwing yourself at work. Women have to think about family life too.”

“A-got it…”

Ji Qingyan was speechless.

Was Lin Yi a spy?

Just who was he helping?

After the meal, they sat down again and chatted with Zhang Shumin and Peng Xingguo for a while before driving home.

After returning to the Jiuzhou Pavilion, Ji Qingyan lay comfortably on the sofa.

“Lin Yi, you’re really something. Teacher Zhang and Teacher Zhao were totally fooled by you.”

“How can you say that I fooled them? I mean what I say to them.”

“Hmph, you fickle man.”

Knowing she couldn’t argue with him, Ji threw herself onto the sofa.

“I ate too much today. I really don’t want to move.”

“Don’t move if you don’t want to. I’ll help you shower. Just sit still.”

“You wish.”

Lin Yi was also a little tired and sat beside Ji Qingyan’s leg.

“How’s the project going? We should start talking about relocation.”

Ji Qingyan nodded. “Everyone is quite cooperative, but there are still many stubborn people. These are all old habits. At the end of the day, we have to deal with them slowly.”

He was relieved to see that Ji Qingyan didn’t need any help.

Given Ji Qingyan’s abilities, she probably didn’t have to worry about such things.

After chatting about work, Ji Qingyan went upstairs to take a shower.

Ring, ring, ring…

After coming out of the shower, Ji Qingyan was drying her hair when she heard her phone ring.

He was surprised to find that the call was from Mother Wang.

“Qingyan, are you asleep?” Mother Wang asked softly.

“I just got out of the shower and I’m still up,” she said.

“Mother Wang, are you looking for Lin Yi? I’ll help you call him.”

“Huh? You’re with Lil?”

“I’m staying with him today. I didn’t go back to my own house.”

“Little Yi isn’t with you, is he?”

Ji Qingyan looked out the door and heard the sound of running water downstairs. “I think he went to wash up. What’s the matter?”

“Qingyan, let me tell you something. It’s good for you to know this, but don’t tell Little Yi.”

“What’s happened that’s so mysterious?”

“Two people came to the orphanage this afternoon to ask about Little Yi. Did he break the law when doing business?”

“To ask about Lin Yi?”

Ji Qingyan was surprised. “What did they look like? Did they tell you their identity?”

“They said they were soldiers. They asked a lot about Yi, like when he came to the orphanage and how he got here. In short, they asked for a lot of details. Before they left, they told me not to say anything. They said I couldn’t let Lin Yi know. I thought about it for a while, but I was still worried. But I didn’t dare tell Little Yi, so I could only tell you.”

“Soldiers …”

Ji Qingyan muttered to herself.

If their identities were accurate, there should be nothing to worry about.

Regardless of their motives, at the very least, they wouldn’t harm Lin Yi.

Moreover, Lin Yi was very well-behaved when doing business. He would not commit any crimes. Thus, his safety was guaranteed.

“Mother Wang, what kind of questions did they focus on?”

“Just asking about how he got to the orphanage. I said he’d been dumped at the door.

“They asked where the name came from. I said there was a note in the blanket with his name.

“And asked me if I’d seen his real parents. I said no. The rest was unimportant information.”

After a few seconds of silence, Ji Qingyan said,

“Mother Wang, you can’t tell anyone about this except me.”

“How would I dare to tell anyone? Before they left, they repeatedly emphasized to me that this was a secret. If it was leaked, I would be held responsible. I was scared to death.” Mother Wang said excitedly.

“But I couldn’t let it go after they left. I can’t hold it in anymore, so I called you.”

Ji Qingyan smiled. “They already said it’s confidential. Aren’t you afraid of being punished for calling me?”

“This matter involves my son. I don’t care what kind of secret it is. Hurry up and help Mother Wang think of a solution. What exactly is going on?”

“Mother Wang, don’t worry. They’re from the military, so you don’t have to worry about security. Lin Yi is also a law-abiding businessman. In any case, he’ll be fine.

“It’s probably because of some small matter that they needed to investigate his background. For example, when we bid, Party A will investigate the bidders’ creditworthiness. It’s a normal occurence.”

Ji Qingyan didn’t know exactly what had happened.

However, all she could do was comfort Mother Wang.

She couldn’t let her worry too much.

“Really?” Mother Wang heaved a sigh of relief. “If you say that, I won’t be worried. They scared me when they came in earlier today.”

“Don’t worry, it’s fine.”

“Yes, I’m not worried anymore, but you have to keep your mouth shut.” Mother Wang said, “We have to keep this a secret. Don’t tell Little Yi. They said that this is confidential.”

“Got it. I won’t tell him.”

“Alright, I won’t disturb your sleep anymore. I’ll hang up first.”

Before Ji Qingyan could say anything else, Wang Cuiping hung up.

This embarrassed Ji Qingyan.

‘I live here, but I’m not sleeping with him!’

However, now, Ji Qingyan was no longer in the mood to pay attention to such things.

Why would the military be looking for Lin Yi?

‘That’s unusual.’

…

Yangcheng, Blue Sky Welfare Institute.

After the call with Ji Qingyan, Wang Cuiping sat cross-legged on the bed, still unable to fall asleep.

At this moment, Zhao Quanfu walked in from outside. His face was covered in dust. He had probably just finished his work.

“Have you finished welding the beds?” Wang Cuiping asked.

“I’ve pulled them all back. I’ll install them tomorrow,” Zhao Quanfu said as he dusted himself off.

“I heard from the child that two soldiers came today. What happened?”

“What soldiers? They’re all little melon eggs. What do they know?” Wang Cuiping said, “They’re here to check on the fire safety standards. They will tell us if anything fails to meet the standards.”

“There won’t be any fine, right?”

“How can that be? Didn’t they always take care of us? When have they ever fined us?”

“That’s true. I’m going to take a shower. If you’re tired, go to sleep. Just enjoy yourself.”

“Yeah.”

Zhao Quanfu left, but Wang Cuiping was still distracted.

Getting out of bed, she went to the closet, dug out the bottom box, and found a small wooden box inside.

She opened small wooden box. Inside was an envelope that had long since yellowed.

It was sealed with a wax seal that had yet to be opened.

Wang Cuiping thought back to that rainy night.

She recalled the woman who had cried her eyes out.

She recalled her every word and every sentence.

Eventually she sighed.

“Some things are better left unsaid.”
