Chapter 2551: Chapter 2552: Giving You Face?

After leaving, our Chen family arrived at Room 1209, intending to talk about what had just happened.

The doorbell rang, and the door quickly opened.

Inside the room, there were quite a number of people—at least twenty or so—and almost all of them were men.

Among these people, many were in their forties or fifties, wearing stern expressions, and several bore tattoos on their bodies.

Judging by their appearances, it was clear that they were not to be trifled with.

But what was even harder to accept was the overwhelming smell of smoke in the room.

"Manager Chen, have you talked to that family about the matter yet?"

The man speaking was in his forties, overweight, and tipped the scales at well over two hundred pounds.

Bald-headed with a ferocious face, he carried an intimidating aura.

His name was Zhou Chengtao. He used to be a singer, but his bold and loyal personality earned him connections with many big shots in different circles.

Over time, as he grew older, he transitioned behind the scenes and started running businesses related to the entertainment industry.

Any celebrity wanting to work gigs in Yanjing had to go through his company or a company he designated.

If anyone dared to bypass him and arrange their own affairs, both people and equipment would be dealt with.

All losses would have to be borne by the offender.

This unspoken rule left many celebrities disgruntled but also powerless.

Yanjing’s vast market wasn’t something anyone was willing to let go of.

But occasionally, some celebrities with their own strengths and backgrounds dared to challenge him, only to ultimately fail.

Nowadays, the forty-six-year-old Zhou Chengtao had recently had a son, which led to him settling here.

"I’ve spoken to them, but they’re unwilling to make the switch."

"Did you mention my name?" Zhou Chengtao asked in a low voice.

"I did, but the other side was very firm, showing no intention of switching. My apologies; I’ve done my best."

Zhou Chengtao nodded, lighting up a cigarette casually.

"Even my name didn’t sway them? That family is quite something."

"No problem, I’ll go over myself. I can settle this in a few minutes."

The man speaking was Wu Xiang, Zhou Chengtao’s driver and one of his newest subordinates.

Thanks to his skills, he had stayed by Zhou’s side for years, becoming his right-hand man.

"To live here, people probably aren’t short on cash, so don’t act rashly," Zhou Chengtao said.

"If they’re really capable people, they’d surely know your name within Yanjing’s borders. I bet they’re from out of town."

He turned to Manager Chen. "Do you know where they’re from?"

"Uh..."

Manager Chen paused. "Judging by their accents, it seems like they’re from the coastal area."

"I guessed right!" Wu Xiang said, pleased with himself.

Zhou Chengtao nodded, his worries instantly dispelled.

"Do you know what they do?" Zhou asked, looking at Manager Chen.

"The lady named Sister Zhang is addressing him as Principal Lin. He seems to be a doctor, but I don’t know the specifics."

"A doctor?"

Disdain flashed across Zhou Chengtao’s face. "A doctor can still afford to live here?"

"Brother Tao, you might not get it. People like them have money and social status. Maybe they even got a discount to stay here," Wu Xiang said.

"You might be right," Zhou agreed.

"Take a couple of guys over to check it out. It’s a trivial matter; just get it done quickly and don’t waste time."

"Understood."

With that, Wu Xiang gave a signal, calling over a man of similar age, and headed toward the 13th floor.

...

After Manager Chen left, Zhang Shuzhen was ushered into the room by Lin Yi.

"Principal Lin, I’m so sorry. Please don’t mind them."

Since she had been introduced by Chen Shihua, Zhang Shuzhen acted more naturally, as if they were friends.

"It’s fine. She’s just a worker. I don’t need to make things hard for her."

"That’s the best way to think about it. I’ll go check on the mother’s condition and make sure we communicate promptly if anything comes up."

"Alright, thank you for your efforts."

Originally, Shen Shuyi had hired two postpartum caregivers to look after Mi Li, and with Zhang Shuzhen joining, three people were more than enough.

As for Lin Yi, he only needed to supervise.

Wealthy people’s willingness to have children largely rested on these differences.

After giving birth, they didn’t have to worry about anything, as they had dedicated professionals taking care of things.

Lin Yi sat off to the side, phone in hand, chatting with a few women.

Li Chuhan, Yan Ci, and Wang Ying had all heard about Lin Yi becoming a father and were talking about preparing gifts.

Feeling like he had achieved everything a man could aspire to, Lin Yi thought he might have reached his peak.

However, Lin Yi had not shared anything with Ji Qingyan, instead telling her he was still abroad and would return after some time.

Aside from that, Lin Yi had also checked on Ji Qingyan’s status.

With no significant updates on her, it seemed like there was still some time before her delivery.

Ding-dong—

Just as Lin Yi was chatting, the doorbell rang again.

When he opened the door, he saw two young men standing outside.

Although they dressed decently, they carried an air of insolence.

"Who are you?"

"You’re Lin Yi, right? My big brother is Zhou Chengtao, from Room 1209. We want that nanny named Zhang Shuzhen moved over. This is Yanjing; show us some respect."

Lin Yi almost laughed.

"In Yanjing, I’m supposed to give you respect?"

"What else?" Wu Xiang scoffed:

"This is Yanjing, not a place for out-of-towners to act high and mighty. It’s just switching a nanny. We don’t want to cause trouble. Consider this making a friend."

"With your demeanor, you think you can be my friend?"

Lin Yi patted Wu Xiang’s shoulder. "Stop embarrassing yourselves and get lost."

Without giving them a chance to respond, Lin Yi shut the door in their faces, leaving them stranded.

Zhang Shuzhen walked over at this point.

"Principal Lin, these people look like troublemakers. Will this cause you any problems? Maybe I should just go over there."

"If someone truly needs it, I wouldn’t mind switching. But with that kind of attitude, I can’t stand it," Lin Yi said:

"Besides, these people don’t seem respectable, and you’d probably feel stressed working there. Stay here with us. I’m not concerned about them."

Reassured by Lin Yi’s words, Zhang Shuzhen relaxed considerably.

"Then I’ll go check on your wife. Postpartum recovery is very important, and I need to keep an eye on it."

"Alright, thanks for your hard work."

"Not at all, it’s my duty."

At the postpartum care center, Lin Yi’s only task was cooking meals for Mi Li.

The center was equipped with a specialized kitchen, complete with professional-grade tools.

Lin Yi’s culinary skills earned unanimous praise, and everyone remarked on how lucky Mi Li was to have found such a good man, leaving her blushing in embarrassment.

"Someone sent a lot of fruit to my mom’s company. Go pick it up for me; I’ll skip eating the ones here."

"Alright."

Although the fruits provided by the center were good, the ones sent to the Liang family were exclusives—simply unmatched in quality.

Lin Yi put on his coat and headed down to the underground parking lot.

However, when he reached his parking space, he found that the Alfa van Shen Shuyi had arranged for him had been vandalized.
