I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week Novel - Chapter 673

673 The Project Was Blocked

“Are you sure about this?”

“Hmph, since when did I, Ji Qingyan, ever go back on my word?”

Even though Ji Qingyan had already gotten into her car, Lin Yi could still imagine her proud expression.

“Then it’s settled.”

!!
“Let’s wait until you find me.” Ji Qingyan said, “Remember, I’ll only give you ten minutes. If you can’t find me then, don’t say that I’m bullying you.”

“It won’t take ten minutes. Five minutes will do.”

“Tsk, keep bragging.” Ji Qingyan said, “I’ve already thought of a place to eat. Let’s set off now. I want to see how you find me. Hmph.”

“Let’s go.”

Soon, she ended the call.

Then, there was the sound of her car starting up. The white Maserati drove out of the parking lot, and Lin Yi followed behind quietly.

If it were someone with experience in criminal investigation, they would definitely notice that someone was following them.

However, it was a different story for Ji Qingyan.

Inside the car, Ji Qingyan was extremely pleased with herself.

It took about ten minutes to drive from Chaoyang Group to the restaurant.

However, if they were to set off from Jiuzhou Pavilion, they would need at least half an hour to arrive.

Even if Lin Yi knew where she was, he wouldn’t be able to get there in ten minutes.

Therefore, he would definitely lose!

Hmph, hmph, from now on, don’t even think about teasing me!

Ten minutes later, she stopped in front of a Sunrise Land restaurant.

Coincidentally, it was the same Yifeng Hall that Lin Yi had eaten at in Yangcheng.

Entering the restaurant, Ji Qingyan booked a private room, but she was in no hurry to order. Instead, she called Lin Yi.

“I’m already here. Didn’t you say that there’s a special connection between us? If you can’t find me, let’s see how you explain it.”

“I despise you despicable people the most.”

“Really?” Ji Qingyan smiled smugly.

“I’m actually very low-key. It’s mainly because you’re too arrogant. You even said that you could find me within ten minutes. Slightly… Beep, beep, beep…”

Halfway through her sentence, she realized that the call had been ended.

“Why did you hang up?”

Muttering under her breath, Ji Qingyan did not take it seriously. She looked at the time on her phone and realized that six minutes had passed.

“Hmph, I’ll just stay here and see how you find me.” Ji Qingyan waved her small fists. “If you can’t find me, I’ll deal with you when I get home…”

Creak…

Just as she was immersed in her fantasy, the door to the private room was pulled open.

To his surprise, she saw a person wearing a mask, sunglasses, and a baseball bat standing in front of her.

“You… who are you?!”

Lin Yi smiled as he removed the equipment on his face. Ji Qingyan stared at him with her beautiful eyes.

It was as if she had seen a strange creature.

“You… how did you find this place?”

“Let’s not talk about that. Electromagnetic waves are constantly traveling between us, so I knew to come here.” Lin Yi said, “I counted just now, and I took about six minutes, so you lost.”

“That’s bullsh*t.”

All of a sudden, Ji Qingyan’s eyes lit up as though she had thought of something.

“You followed me!”

“We’re all educated, so how can you call this stalking?” Lin Yi said, “The proper term is tailgating.”

“Eh? That’s even worse. I might as well be considered stalking.”

She puffed up her cheeks like a punching bag.

All of a sudden, she had been tricked again.

In the future, he would not casually offer these challenges. Who knew when she would fall into one of Lin Yi’s trap again?

“Don’t worry about the details. Just remember one thing. If I win, it means you lost. That’s all.”

Ji Qingyan blushed and hurriedly pushed the menu over.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore. I’m hungry. Hurry up and eat.”

Knowing that Ji Qingyan was thin-skinned and that this was a public place, Lin Yi did not tease her and started ordering.

From what Ji Qingyan remembered, the two of them had been busy during this period of time and had not come out for a meal for a long time.

“Why did you come out dressed like this?” She asked during dinner.

“Isn’t that what you asked me to do? I was dressed like this during my live stream.”

“Huh? You were streaming today?”

“Do you have to be so excited?”

“Why didn’t you tell me? I’d have gone to tip you.

“I heard that there’s a ranking for live streamers. I want you to reach the top.”

“Just drop by for a visit. Don’t delay your own matters.”

“That won’t do. I’ll tip you the next time you stream.”

“In that case, I’ll thank you in advance, rich lady.”

“That’s right. As long as you listen to the rich lady in the future, I guarantee that you’ll have a good life.”

Ring!

Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was a call from Qi Xianzhao.

“President Lin, are you busy? I have something to report to you.”

“I’m not busy, just tell me.” Lin Yi called and placed his phone on the table.

Qi Xianzhao was a very steady and sensible person. Under normal circumstances, he would not call him during non-working hours.

Something must have happened for him to call at this time.

It was probably not minor.

“Previously, you said that you wanted to join the mobile phone industry and asked me to find some manufacturers. I’ve now found a manufacturer with a good reputation and production strength. The subsequent negotiations were also very smooth. The report on my side is done, but the other party called me just now and said that they don’t want to cooperate anymore.”

“Don’t want to cooperation anymore?” Lin Yi paused, “Are you sure that the price and procedures were handled correctly?”

“No problem. Everything was going smoothly. It’s just that this happened very suddenly.”

Lin Yi raised his head and looked at Ji Qingyan. The latter thought for a few seconds and muttered to herself,

“Something doesn’t seem right.”

Lin Yi’s gaze landed on his phone again.

“Are you saying that you’re afraid that someone is interfering here?”

With Qi Xianzhao’s ability, he naturally wouldn’t come to ask for a solution.

Rather, he smelled danger.

“Yes, it is.”

Qi Xianzhao said, “President Lin, do you still remember the post shared on the financial website after the war with the Huayin Group ended?”

“The one that was quickly deleted after it was published?”

“Yes, that’s the one,” Qi Xianzhao said.

“Since then, I felt that something was wrong. I felt that someone was going against us, so my business trip this time was very secretive. But in the end, I still didn’t succeed. I don’t think this was a coincidence.

“Moreover, recently, Director Tian’s investment work has been impeded recently. I think this might explain the reason for that.”

“You suspect this is the same group?”

After a few seconds of silence, Qi Xianzhao said, “It’s just a possibility. I’m not sure yet.”

Lin Yi spat out the fishbone in his mouth and smacked his lips.

“Go on.”

“Although it’s possible that the same group of people is doing these things, we can’t rule out the possibility that it is Zhao Mo and the others’ revenge!”
