Chapter 3698: Chapter 3690: He Sees Me as a Rival
After sending the two back, Lin Yi drove home.
On the way back, he glanced at the system panel.
Task progress: 348/1500.
Faster than expected.
When he got home, Ji Qingyan was teaching Little Nuonuo to read.
Upon seeing Lin Yi return, Ji Qingyan was excited.
"Come and see what your daughter wrote."
Lin Yi walked over with a smile and saw Little Nuonuo had written a crooked character resembling ’Lin’ in her notebook.
"Not bad, she can write her own surname."
"Of course, you should see who taught her." Ji Qingyan said proudly, her head held high.
"My daughter’s cleverness resembles yours."
"I think so too." Ji Qingyan said with a smile:
"I’ve left food for you in the kitchen."
"Alright."
Lin Yi changed clothes and went to the kitchen to have dinner.
"Dad, I’ll pour you some wine."
While Lin Yi was eating, Little Nuonuo came over with a bottle of beer.
Lin Yi looked at Ji Qingyan with slight surprise.
He rarely drank at home.
Ji Qingyan’s expression was a mix of amusement and helplessness.
"Today during dinner, she gave her grandpa a bottle of wine, and when he praised her, she got so happy that she wanted to pour some for you too."
Lin Yi smiled brightly, lifting Little Nuonuo onto his lap, opening the bottle cap, and taking a glass.
Little Nuonuo poured a glass of beer for Lin Yi.
"Nuonuo is great, you can pour drinks for Dad now."
"Hehe."
The father-daughter pair enjoyed a delightful dinner together.
But midway through the meal, Little Nuonuo was carried away as Ji Qingyan feared she’d disturb Lin Yi’s eating.
After Little Nuonuo left, Lin Yi took out his phone to check the messages others had sent him.
No need to worry too much about the Group, we’re in the advantageous position. Just need to react accordingly.
The remaining matters concern the Central Guards Brigade.
Various signs suggest Mammon is making some moves, but it’s unclear what exactly is being planned.
Kaijie Group seems to be recruiting heavily as well, indicating both organizations are restless.
Only Anglo remains silent.
Mammon’s actions give Lin Yi a sense of unease.
They hold many unknown secrets, and much of their actions are not random.
All these require close observation.
After dinner, Lin Yi washed up, put Little Nuonuo to sleep, and Ji Qingyan returned to the bedroom applying a facial mask.
"Did you see today’s news?"
"I’ve been busy all day, haven’t checked. What happened?"
"Lingyun Group has been listed on the entity list. Our Chaoyang Group got caught in the crossfire."
"You got caught too?"
Being put on the entity list was something Lin Yi was mentally prepared for, just didn’t expect they’d be so ruthless as to include Chaoyang Group too.
"But I noticed you don’t seem very affected?"
"The entity list is just a title, whether we’re on it or not doesn’t change the restrictions already placed on us, these were anticipated."
"So you’re just waiting for them to reveal their tactics next?"
"Pretty much, the cards they can play are nothing new." Lin Yi said nonchalantly:
"I’m more interested in seeing how they plan to save their stock market, everything else is secondary."
"Their stock market is steadily declining, but you need to be mindful of one aspect."
Ji Qingyan’s expression turned particularly serious.
"This clash affects not just Lingyun Group, but related domestic industries, equivalent to a financial storm."
After a pause, Ji Qingyan continued:
"I met with Tao Yuan today, we discussed that if this continues for another week, even if Kaijie Group holds on, we’ll be affected here."
"You mean the authorities might approach me?"
"Yes, when the city gate catches fire, the fish in the pond suffer. Ultimately, if Lingyun Group and Kaijie Group remain unaffected, it’ll be our tech stocks that will crumble."
While applying the facial mask, Ji Qingyan said:
"I suspect Kaijie Group will consider this as well, it’s what they’re leveraging. They’re aiming to drag down our tech stocks and force Lingyun Group to compromise."
Ji Qingyan’s analysis reminded Lin Yi.
In this light, these matters indeed need vigilance.
"Then let’s try to deal with them within a week."
"No, no, there’s another option."
Ji Qingyan mysteriously shook her finger.
"With better news, we could lift the entire industry’s stock prices, breaking Kaijie Group’s strategy without even trying."
"The issue lies here, substantial good news isn’t something that can be conjured up easily."
"But it’s still a path, even without good news, if we can stimulate the entire industry chain, we can still resolve the issue."
"It’s indeed a solution, but I’ve been short on time lately. You should visit the group more, let them know about this."
"Focus on your things, leave company affairs to me. As the boss lady, I have some sway."
"He Yuanyuan is your key aide, with her paving the way, no one dares disobey in the company."
"That’s true."
After discussing work affairs for a bit, the two went to sleep.
The next morning, everything went as usual.
Ji Qingyan first sent the child before heading to Lingyun Group.
Lin Yi drove to pick up the Chen sisters.
Chen Yutong dressed more conservatively.
Jeans, flat shoes, white three-quarter sleeves.
Returning to a college girl’s attire.
"Lin Bro, heard you’re visiting Lingyun Industrial Park today?"
"Yes, do you want to join?"
"I’ll skip it, but if that guy Xu Kai gives you trouble again, don’t hold back on him."
"Engaging with people like that only makes me seem petty."
"He’s the one being petty. If you don’t show him some colors, he’ll think you’re easy to bully. So strike when necessary, don’t give him face."
"Your Lin Bro is not as impulsive as you." Chen Yuying said:
"And don’t worry about him, when has your Lin Bro ever been at a disadvantage? He simply chooses not to deal with him."
"That’s true, my Lin Bro is definitely not one to take losses." Chen Yutong added:
"But Xu Kai is indeed acting strangely, my Lin Bro didn’t provoke him, yet he voluntarily picks a fight. Isn’t he seeking trouble?"
"He probably sees me as a rival, thinking I want to pursue your sister, hence antagonizing me."
