I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week-Chapter 2563 - 2564: You Can’t Afford to Pursue It
Chapter 2563: Chapter 2564: You Can’t Afford to Pursue It
Seeing Li Shaoming being hit, the onlookers gasped again.
Especially Zhou Chengtao, who directly sat on the ground.
Having hung out with Qi Jingsi for years, he could name everyone in this circle and knew their respective backgrounds.
In their circle, Qi Jingsi and Li Shaoming were the leaders, their family backgrounds quite equivalent.
Now this man had hit both of them, and this was not going to end well.
The vast T3 bar fell silent; they didn’t know how to handle today’s situation.
Standing in front of Qi Jingsi, Lin Yi grabbed his hair.
"I advise you, don’t push it too far. In Yanjing, you can’t get far."
"Alright, today I admit defeat. Let’s talk it over," Qi Jingsi said breathlessly, quickly conceding.
"Now you want to talk it over?"
"I’ve already said, today’s matter is my fault."
"Don’t be too high-profile in the future. After all, you only have one life."
He pushed Qi Jingsi aside and called for the others to leave.
The people in the bar automatically made way, not daring to get within a meter of Lin Yi, even as they walked out of the bar.
Even after they disappeared, no one in the bar dared to make a sound.
Instinctively, the bystanders looked at Qi Jingsi and Li Shaoming.
They were the people who could command the wind and rain at T3, now they had been hit.
If this got out, it would definitely be big news.
"Let’s go!"
With a cold expression, Qi Jingsi led his people out of the bar.
At this point, the only thing to do was to leave.
...
The next morning, when Liang Ruoxu woke up, Lin Yi was making breakfast.
"When did you come back?"
Rubbing her eyes, Liang Ruoxu stood behind Lin Yi and said.
"I came back before one o’clock."
"So early?" Liang Ruoxu yawned and stretched, "When you guys go out, didn’t you always come back at dawn?"
"We ran into some people and it ruined the mood, so we came back."
"Did those people really come looking for you?"
Liang Ruoxu couldn’t help but say, "A bunch of hoodlums trying to mess with the Central Guards Brigade, isn’t that just courting death in fancy ways."
"Not exactly, they did find some pretty capable people, so they had some strength."
"Capable but still not a match for the Central Guards Brigade?"
"The main issue was someone with the surname Qi was backing Zhou Chengtao; we happened to run into him last night."
"The surname Qi?" Liang Ruoxu murmured, then said:
"There’s someone with the surname Qi in our complex, but Uncle Qi’s family only has a daughter. It shouldn’t be them."
"That person had a bit of a Tianjin accent, didn’t quite sound like someone from Yanjing."
Lin Yi turned off the stove and served the dishes.
"A Tianjin accent?" Liang Ruoxu’s expression changed, "Could it be Qi Jingsi you ran into?"
"Hmm?"
Lin Yi was stunned for a moment, "It might actually be him, how did you know?"
"Uh..." Liang Ruoxu looked at Lin Yi, probing as she asked:
"Did you guys have a fight?"
"Slapped him," Lin Yi said, "Does the Liang family know this person?"
"Do you remember, a few days ago when we were having dinner with my mom, she mentioned a person named Qi Daodong, who might take over my role."
"Uh..."
Lin Yi’s mouth twitched, "No way, his son?"
"It’s his son alright."
Liang Ruoxu said with a bit of helplessness:
"According to my mom’s plan, she thought you’d only meet them once you returned to Zhong Hai, but didn’t expect you’d bump into them this soon and even hit him."
"This is quite the situation. I thought it was a second-rate family, didn’t realize it was his son."
"No matter, the relationship wasn’t that great anyway," Liang Ruoxu said:
"Plus, as long as you still hold the lithography machine technology, Qi Daodong won’t dare to touch you."
Lin Yi thought about it, feeling the situation might not be as simple as Liang Ruoxu said.
The intricacies involved might be deeper than she imagined.
...
Yanjing, Wealth Mansion.
Qi Jingsi’s home wasn’t as large as one might expect, with a usable area of only over 200 square meters.
Among his peers, it was already considered a small residence.
After returning from the bar yesterday, Qi Jingsi went home and called his family.
He was acutely aware that trying to resolve this with violence was no longer possible.
Bzz bzz bzz—
At this moment, the sound of static electricity hummed as the door opened. A short-haired middle-aged woman entered the room.
The woman dressed very plainly; what she wore and the bag she carried seemed not to be valuable, nor was her attire the least bit trendy.
Her name was Li Yongmei, Qi Jingsi’s mother, working in Yanjing.
Due to business travel, she didn’t rush back immediately upon receiving Qi Jingsi’s call.
"Mom."
"Let me see, does it still hurt?"
As an only child born late, Qi Daodong and Li Yongmei doted on Qi Jingsi excessively, which resulted in his arrogant personality.
Otherwise, given his status, a life of debauchery wasn’t appropriate.
"It’s already fine." Qi Jingsi said with a dark expression:
"But I won’t let him go. If I don’t get him sent inside, I won’t let it rest in my heart!"
"You shouldn’t dwell on this matter. I just had a call with your dad; he’ll be here soon," Li Yongmei said:
"Once he finds out more about the situation, it’ll still be in time to handle it."
Qi Jingsi nodded, his eyes dark as he clenched his fists; for now, the only thing to do was wait.
About half an hour later, there was a knock on the door, and Li Yongmei went to open it.
A middle-aged man stood outside, wearing a suit and glasses, slightly pudgy but not fat.
He was Qi Jingsi’s father, Qi Daodong.
"Come in."
Once inside, the three family members sat together, and Li Yongmei said impatiently:
"Did you find out who it is? Have you taken action?"
After pondering for a moment, Qi Daodong looked at Qi Jingsi.
"How did this situation arise?"
Faced with this question, both mother and son were a bit surprised.
It didn’t seem to be the time to probe into the cause now.
"Now that things have happened, why ask this? Let’s deal with the main issue first."
"Don’t speak yet," Qi Daodong said, waiting for Qi Jingsi to speak.
"It started over a small issue. I didn’t expect it would escalate to this," Qi Jingsi said.
"So, there’s no deep-seated hatred between you then?"
"No," Qi Jingsi said:
"But the problem is that I got hit, which doesn’t relate to deep-seated hatred. If I don’t get them thrown inside, where will my face be?"
"I think this is a chance. Settle down in the future, and don’t go messing around anymore."
"Dad, what do you mean?"
Li Yongmei also looked at Qi Daodong, sensing something was off with him.
"That person’s identity and background are deeper than you think, we can’t afford to pursue it."
