Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Let’s go shopping. This is my fault, Empress Ji. I’ll pay for everything tonight.”

Lin Yi admitted defeat. Ji Qingyan was so awesome, he had no choice but to surrender.

“Look, i know everything you like,” she said with her head held high.

“Come on, don’t be so modest, Empress Ji. Compared to you, I’m nothing.”

“Hehe… You can’t say that.”

Ji Qingyan held onto Lin Yi’s arm, and the big white rabbit in front of her pressed up close to his face.

“You’re also very powerful. This family is relying on you to support it. Without you, what would be the point of me standing here alone?”

For some reason, Lin Yi’s heart raced.

After that special person appeared, all the hardships in life would disappear and his worldview became beautiful and vast.

Lin Yi held Ji Qingyan’s hand tightly. She was the one who gave him a new meaning in life.

“Alright, let’s go shopping.”

Feeling the warmth of Lin Yi’s palm, Ji Qingyan responded forcefully.

“I know you don’t like shopping, so you can find a place to sit for a while. I’ll call you after I’m done shopping. Come and pick me up then.”

“That’s fine. I’ll find a cafe to sit in for a while.”

“Okay.”

Normally, Lin Yi would accompany Ji Qingyan even though he didn’t like shopping.

However, something unexpected had suddenly happened. He had to hurry up and deal with it, and this was a good opportunity to do so.

In a bustling place like this, Lin Yi wasn’t worried about Ji Qingyan’s safety.

Moreover, English was a common language. With her level of English, she would not struggle.

“Take the card and swipe it. I’ll pay for everything today.”

Ji Qingyan took the bank card with a smile.

“I won’t stand on ceremony with Mr. Lin.”

Ji Qingyan happily took Lin Yi’s bank card and left.

To her, spending Lin Yi’s money to buy things nowadays seemed to have become a given.

If she continued to reject him, she would feel strange.

Lin Yi found a cafe and sat down in an empty corner.

Then, he called Shen Tianzhuo.

“Director Shen, how’s the situation on your side? Any progress?”

“I’ve brought everyone back. I’m dealing with this matter,” Shen Tianzhuo said.

“The network protection work at the Sailboat Hotel is very good. It’s also done by the world’s top hackers. But don’t worry, give me another five hours and I’ll definitely be able to settle this matter.”

Hearing Shen Tianzhuo’s words, Lin Yi finally understood how big the project was.

“Tell our colleagues to work harder. The main thing is to find a man in black clothes, a black hat, and a mask. He’s the target I want to track down. Just send me all the information about him. There’s no need for anything else.”

“Alright, leave it to me.”

“Director Shen, you’ve worked hard.”

“Kid, you’re being too polite to me.” Shen Tianzhuo smiled and said.

“Wait for my update.”

“Okay.”

After hanging up on Shen Tianzhuo, Lin Yi called Ning Che.

“The sun must have risen from the west. You actually took the initiative to call me.” Ning Che chuckled.

“Did you come to Yanjing to spend this lonely night with me?”

“I didn’t go to Yanjing, but I followed your scent to Doora.”

“Huh? How did you know I was here?”

“I just called Boss Liu,” Lin Yi said.

“But don’t tell him I’m here, or he’ll bring me back.”

Lin Yi was now the key protection target of the Central Guards Brigade and Liu Hong’s favorite child.

If he could, he would lock Lin Yi at home to stop him from running around.

“Did you come to Doora at this time to spend Christmas with your girlfriend?”

“You’re smart.”

“Then why are you calling me? Don’t tell me you want to play with me?” Ning Che said.

“I’m fine with it, but I don’t think your girlfriend will agree.”

“At least we have a pure relationship between a man and a woman. Can’t we elevate our experience a bit?”

“Elevate? How are you planning to elevate it? With drugs or sexual aids?”

“We can try this in the future, but I’m calling you today because I have something important to tell you.”

“Tell me, what is it?”

“You’re here to investigate the auction, right?”

“There’s news that a batch of jewelry made from Bass ores was secretly transported to the auction house. I’m here to see if this is true.”

Ning Che wasn’t surprised about this. Lin Yi must have heard about it from Boss Liu.

“Where is the auction house? I need the detailed information.”

“That’s not a problem. I’ll organize the information and send it to your phone later.”

“From now on, only the two of us know about this. Don’t even inform the members you brought here,” Lin Yi said seriously.

“I understand,” Ning Che said seriously.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up first. The party is about to start. 1 have to go over and take a look.”

“Wait!”

Lin Yi stopped Ning Che and said seriously,

“This mission might not be as simple as you think. You have to be careful not to expose your identity. The mission is not that important. You have to ensure your safety first. If you encounter anything you can’t handle, remember to call me immediately.”

On the other end of the phone, Ning Che was stunned. She obviously didn’t expect Lin Yi to say such a thing.

At the same time, she recognize the danger of this mission.

Otherwise, Lin Yi wouldn’t have spoken to him in such a tone.

“I understand. Be careful too.”

After making the call, Lin Yi closed his eyes to rest and sat on the chair.

Lin Yi wasn’t in a hurry to look for Ning Che. Even though it was easier to communicate this way, he might also expose himself.

Now, with both of them working in tandem, it was like having an additional layer of security, making their operation even more formidable.

When necessary, they could meet up later.

But from the beginning to the end, Lin Yi’s brows were furrowed together.

This whole time he was in a passive position. Being led by the nose was not something he liked at all.

To Lin Yi, it did not matter if the Bass ore appeared or not. He did not care about this.

His main concern was to find out the true identity of the man in black.

Somehow, Lin Yi had a feeling.

There seemed to be endless secrets surrounding that man in black, waiting for him to unravel them.

“I hope that person is really you. I’ve been looking for you!” Lin Yi muttered to himself.

Before he knew it, more than two hours had passed.

Lin Yi’s brain had been locked in high-intensity thinking, so he didn’t notice the time passing.

It was only when he received Ji Qingyan’s call that he realized two hours had passed.

“I’m at the Hermes store on the fourth floor. I bought a lot of things. Come and pick me up..”
