I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week-Chapter 2221 - 2222: Harboring Persistent Thoughts

Chapter 2221 -2222: Harboring Persistent Thoughts

“No, no, no, I was just making small talk. Sister-in-law, please come in.”

Luo Qi reacted quickly and stepped forward to welcome Ji Qingyan inside.

Because they had dined together before and because of Ji Qingyan’s stunning beauty, everyone in the group had a very deep impression of her.

The others also behaved naturally, after all, they were all their own people.

It was Lin Yi who was made to feel awkward, not knowing what to say for a moment.

“The seasons are changing, so I went to buy you a few sets of clothes. When you have time, try them on to see if they fit.”

“No need to try them on, whatever you buy will definitely fit.”

“But you still need to try them on. If they don’t fit, I’ll need to take them back to exchange.”

“Okay.”

Ji Qingyan brushed her hair, “If you’re busy, go ahead; I’ll head back first.”

“Since you’re already here, why leave?” Lin Yi said, chuckling.

“Right, don’t be shy, sister-in-law. We’ll be leaving soon; we won’t delay both of your matters,” Xiao Bing said with a suggestive tone.

“It’s mainly because you have things to discuss, and I’m afraid I’ll get in the way.”

Ji Qingyan remembered the people before her because she had dined with them before.

And she also vaguely guessed that these people must be Lin Yi’s friends from that organization.

They might have gathered today to discuss important matters, and she was afraid it wouldn’t be appropriate for her to stay.

As for whether to stay at Jiuzhou Pavilion, that was not something Ji Qingyan considered at all.

Since the two of them had lived together for a long time before, there was no need to feign innocence now.

Everyone was an adult and naturally needed to act maturely.

“We’re just chatting and there’s nothing serious going on; don’t misunderstand, sister-in-law.”

“Then I’ll wait upstairs for you, and after you’re done, I’ll take you out to eat.”

“Hehe, thanks, sister-in-law.”

“We’re all our own people; there’s no need for such courtesy.”

Ji Qingyan smiled and pointed upstairs.

“I’m going upstairs first; you guys continue talking.”

“Mm-hmm.”

After giving Lin Yi a look, Ji Qingyan headed upstairs.

Lin Yi and the others stayed on the first floor and continued to discuss the earlier topic.

However, after reaching the upstairs, Ji Qingyan did not return to her room but stood quietly in a corner, watching Lin Yi below.

“Come on, let’s start the meeting quickly, and don’t delay Lin Bro and sister-in-law’s spring evening,” Xiao Bing said.

“I think we should act quickly, and the day after tomorrow is the 23rd. After this, let’s gather our stuff and head to Shianggang to assess the situation,” Yu Siying suggested.

Lin Yi nodded, “Just like last time, the seven of you will operate in batches, slowly infiltrating towards Shianggang. Make sure their people don’t spot you.”

“Lin Bro, how are you going? Are you not coming with us?” Zhao Yunhu asked.

Xiao Bing smacked the back of his head with a palm.

“Lin Bro already said he’s not taking part in the operation this time. Sister-in-law is still here; don’t bring up the wrong issue at the wrong time.”

“Look at my forgetful head; I forgot about that,” Zhao Yunhu said with a smile.

“Boss, let us handle the matters of Group One. You stay at home with sister-in-law, trying for an early birth of a prized son. Leave the tough tasks to us,” Zhao Yunhu said cheerfully.

“Don’t talk nonsense,” Lin Yi said seriously.

“Even though I’m not going with you this time, I’ll provide support from the rear. Don’t feel psychologically burdened; it’s time for you guys to stand on your own.”

“Got it, Lin Bro.”

“Alright, let’s get moving then. We’ll communicate over the phone if anything comes up.”

“Understood.”

Everyone agreed, and Yu Siying said,

“Boss, if there’s nothing else, we’ll be leaving.”

“I’m not accompanying you this time. Be careful with everything you do, don’t act rashly. You don’t have to carry out the task if there’s a risk of getting hurt; otherwise, I won’t be able to explain it to your parents.”

Lin Yi’s earnest tone made Yu Siying and the others feel uncomfortable.

“Boss, this is our responsibility and mission. Someone has to do these things; otherwise, where would the peace for China’s common people come from?”

“I know you’re all prepared, but still be careful.”

“Boss, are you still troubled by what happened to Zhou Liang? It’s been such a long time; you should stop dwelling on it. You’re not Superman; you can’t protect everyone,” Shao Jianfeng said.

“Enough, stop talking about that. Get ready to work.”

“Understood!”

The group packed their belongings and left Jiuzhou Pavilion one after another.

This left the vast living room suddenly quiet.

Lin Yi sat alone on the sofa, hunched over like a silent statue.

He reached out to touch something on the coffee table then picked up a cigarette and lighter from the table, and silently lit up.

The smoke wafted around him, enveloping him as he pondered for a long while, and then he called Qiu Yuluo.

“Has Group One started moving?”

After the call connected, Qiu Yuluo asked.

“They’ve just left.”

“Then what? Do you have something to ask me?” Qiu Yuluo asked,

“I’ve organized some information that would be useful for the operation. I’ll send it to you later.”

“That’s not what I’m talking about,” Lin Yi said,

“Could you and Ning Che speak to Boss Liu and ask him to take Group One to deal with the Hongmen matter?”

“You want us to lead the mission this time?”

“Their experience isn’t rich enough. They can handle minor issues, but dealing with Hongmen this time, I’m afraid they might run into problems due to inexperience.”

“I get your point, but that’s against the rules. Unless it’s a joint operation between two groups or other very special circumstances, we can’t do that. This time, I’m afraid it’s not possible,” Qiu Yuluo explained,

“Plus, you should know, Group One is the Central Guards Brigade’s spearhead; rated higher than Groups Two and Three. Naturally, they need to have stronger capabilities. If they can’t complete such a task without you, what’s the point of them being in Group One?”

“I understand.”

“You’re just too conscientious. You try to account for everything. If you keep shielding them like this, the members of Group One won’t grow,” Qiu Yuluo said with a laugh,

“Besides, I think you’re going to be a great father in the future. If you had a daughter, and she started dating or got married, you’d probably cry your eyes out.”

“Fuck off, I’m not like that, bye.”

After hanging up on Qiu Yuluo’s call, Lin Yi extinguished his cigarette butt and walked upstairs.

Upon reaching the second floor, he spotted Ji Qingyan.

“Has everyone left?”

“They left; no need to stay here and be a third wheel,” Lin Yi said with a smile,

“But I didn’t go with them. I also won’t join them later. I just called them over to give them some instructions; that’s not against the rules, so don’t misunderstand.”
