Chapter 3580 - 3572: Microcosm of the City
Chapter 3580: Chapter 3572: Microcosm of the City
Liang Xianghe nodded.
He was pleased that Lin Yi could think of these things.
Lin Yi suddenly stopped talking.
He felt a bit scared.
The possibility of this news coincided with previous speculations.
Indeed, there were natives who, generation after generation, thrived and lived to this day.
So the information and data that these people have cannot be estimated or determined.
"Old man, you’ve been in this position for so many years and know more than I do. Have you ever heard anything about this?"
"If there really were, it would have been investigated long ago."
Liang Xianghe shook his head and said:
"However, I think it’s unlikely to be domestic; perhaps it exists abroad."
He flicked the ash off his cigarette.
"The Kaijie Group that’s emerging now might have this kind of possibility."
"I also have this kind of suspicion. Ostensibly, it’s a corporation, but the power it holds is much greater and stronger than we imagine."
"Pay more attention to it in your daily routine."
Liang Xianghe said:
"Now all major organizations are accelerating their pace; the world’s situation will become increasingly chaotic, and the heavy burden falls on your shoulders."
"Hmm, I understand."
Lin Yi didn’t say anything else.
He raised his glass and clinked it with Liang Xianghe’s.
After finishing the discussion about the Central Guards Brigade, they talked about trivial life matters.
In the afternoon, after almost finishing the meal,
Lin Yi helped him to rest and tidied up the bowls and chopsticks on the table before leaving.
Afterward, Lin Yi drove to Mi Li’s workplace.
Lin Yi’s appearance attracted a lot of attention.
Some old-timers knew about his relationship with Mi Li.
And some even smiled and greeted him.
"Director Liang, busy?"
Entering the office.
Mi Li was diligently writing.
The uniform she was wearing highlighted her mature woman’s charm.
Seeing Lin Yi come in,
Mi Li put down the pen in her hand.
"I heard you were injured, let me see how you’re doing."
"It’s all sorted, no need to make a fuss."
"Even you got hurt, this mission must have been dangerous."
"Risk and reward are proportional; you understand this principle."
"I do, but your son is in kindergarten now; you must be aware of your own role."
Mi Li said:
"Let’s not talk about anything else; you almost have ten First-class Merits. You’ve accumulated enough achievements; it’s time to take it easy. Without you, the Central Guards Brigade won’t stop running."
"This was purely an accident; no need to worry."
"I knew you’d say that."
Mi Li led Lin Yi to the sofa.
And poured him a glass of water.
"Sit here for a bit, I’m almost done for the day."
"It’s not even four yet."
"They have things to do today, and I have to pick up the kids. Since you’re here, let’s go together and buy some groceries on the way."
"Sounds good."
After about twenty minutes, Mi Li put down her work.
"I’ll change clothes, and then we can go."
"Alright."
Mi Li took off her uniform and put on her long dress.
After having a child, she looked even more gracefully charming.
"Director Liang really exudes charm."
"Did you notice too? I feel like my hips have gotten bigger recently."
"That’s something many women dream of, I imagine."
"My kid’s already in kindergarten; I no longer aim for that."
Mi Li touched her waist with her head lowered.
"Look at my waist; I’ve barely eaten recently, and I can’t lose it."
"After having a child, metabolism slows down. You need to combine it with exercise; otherwise, it won’t be effective."
"Asking me to exercise is like asking for my life."
Mi Li looked at Lin Yi, "Doesn’t traditional Chinese medicine have acupuncture for weight loss? Find time to give me a few needles."
"Those things are just supplementary; you have to control your diet and exercise. Everything else is secondary."
"Then I’ll just eat less; forget about the exercise."
Soon, Mi Li changed her clothes and got in the car with Lin Yi.
Heading towards the kindergarten.
Just like at Little Nuonuo’s kindergarten,
every time school lets out, it’s packed with people here.
But the difference is, outside Little Nuonuo’s kindergarten, you see luxury cars worth millions.
Whereas here, most are A6s, and you hardly see cars worth over a million.
Even not far away, you can hear the cries of small vendors.
The disparity between the two kindergartens is perhaps a reflection of the difference between the two cities.
Also representing their different styles.
Lin Yi parked the car at a distance and walked to the kindergarten with Mi Li.
Many of the people picking up their kids were family nannies.
Some parents were there too, and they recognized Mi Li at a glance.
They voluntarily greeted her.
Here, a car is not a symbol of status but your background.
As for Lin Yi, he was ignored.
After waiting at the entrance for a while,
the teacher started bringing the kids out of the classroom one after another.
Mi Li stood on tiptoe, continuously looking around.
"Mommy, Daddy."
Soon, they saw Little Lin Cheng running towards them with a backpack and a big smile.
Lin Yi went forward and picked up Lin Cheng.
"Did you miss Daddy?"
"Yes, I want to eat the fried chicken you make."
"You have a good memory, the last time I made it for you was quite a while ago."
"Yeah, my mommy’s cooking isn’t tasty."
Mi Li rolled her eyes.
She felt her son was about to switch sides.
After picking up the kid, they headed to a nearby market together.
Apart from buying groceries, Lin Yi bought two Ultraman toys.
Then Mi Li realized her son had completely switched loyalties.
Since Liang Cunxiao and Shen Shuyi both had activities at night,
dinner was just the three of them.
Lin Yi cooked four dishes and a soup.
The three of them ate happily together.
After the meal, Mi Li sliced some fruit for Little Lin Cheng.
Lin Yi watched these scenes, feeling an extra sense of warmth.
Later in the evening, the family of three went out for a walk.
They ran into Liang Cunxiao and Shen Shuyi returning from a gathering.
Then Lin Yi was taken away to drink some wine with Liang Cunxiao before stumbling back home.
In the following days, Lin Yi stayed in Jing City.
During the day, he accompanied Mi Li, and in the evening, they picked up the child together, enjoying this rare family time.
In addition, he hung out at the bar several times with the Central Guards Brigade members, living quite a fulfilling life.
Just like that, a week passed unknowingly.
Lin Yi was also planning to head back to Zhong Hai.
"In the short term, is there nothing going on with the Central Guards Brigade?"
In the airport waiting hall, Mi Li asked.
"Nothing."
"After returning, I bet you won’t rest; what are you planning to do?"
"Uh... haven’t decided yet, but I’m not in a rush."
Standing in front of Lin Yi, Mi Li helped him straighten his collar.
"You used to throw aside the Lingyun Group to do all sorts of random things, making you seem unreliable. But thinking back, if you keep doing those random things, it’s actually not bad, so I don’t have to worry about you."
