Chapter 9 - A Man Sits at Home While His Father-In-Law Comes

n
n
n
nJi Qingyan’s face was completely dark.
n
nIt was only right and proper to pay for a taxi you rode it, but it should not be such a serious matter, right?
n
nAlthough it was quite embarrassing to do an s-squat, that was probably the main point.
n
n“This little bit of money isn’t even enough for you to refuel, so why do you care so much about it?”
n
n“It adds up. I still have to earn money to buy a house in Zhong Hai.”
n
nJi Qingyan laughed.
n
n“You’re already driving Pagani. Who would believe that you can’t afford a house?”
n
nAs she spoke, Ji Qingyan paid for the trip.
n
nLin Yi sighed to himself. I’m really a poor guy with only 60 million in cash!
n
nAfter getting out of the car, the two entered the house one after the other.
n
nThe layout of the villa wasn’t big. It was about 400 square meters in total, and the modern and simple style decorations were very sleek.
n
nFurthermore, there was the faint fragrance of Jasmine.
n
n“What would you like to drink? Coffee or tea?”
n
n“Tea, it’ll quench my thirst.” Lin Yi did not bother being overly formal.
n
nSoon, Ji Qingyan brewed a pot of tea and handed it to Lin Yi.
n
nThe atmosphere in the room also fell into silence. It was a bit awkward.
n
n“You want to watch it now?” Ji Qingyan asked, embarrassed.
n
n“Yes, I have something to do later, so it’s best if I can hurry up.”
n
nThe farewell banquet his colleagues were holding for him was about to start. As the main character, he couldn’t be late.
n
n“Let’s be clear, I’ve never done this before, so don’t blame me if I don’t do it well. “Lin Yi said.
n
n“Don’t worry, I won’t,” Lin Yi answered with a smile.
n
nShe walked to the coffee table and grabbed onto the chair as she recalled the movements in the video.
n
nThen, she completed the first s-squat stiffly.
n
nHer back was straight, her waist was slim, while her legs were long.
n
nIt wasn’t very standard, but after watching Ji Qingyan’s squats, Lin Yi felt that all the female anchors on the internet were weak!
n
nThis was especially true for the feeling of it coming out, as it wasn’t something an ordinary person compete with.
n
nEspecially Ji Qingyan, who was wearing a body-hugging skirt and black silk. If she had not taken off her high heels, she would have gotten even more points.
n
nLin Yi sighed as he drank his tea and watched Ji Qingyan do the s-squats.
n
nThis was life!
n
n“W-what are you doing?”
n
nThey heard someone talking halfway through the second s squat.
n
nBoth of them froze when they saw a middle-aged man in a black polo shirt standing at the door, looking at them in shock.
n
n“Dad, why are you here?!”
n
nThe middle-aged man’s name was Ji Antai, Ji Qingyan’s father.
n
n“I… should I not be here?”
n
nLin Yi almost vomited blood. It was indeed a bad time for you to be here.
n
nYou should be under the car, not here.
n
n“Dad, don’t misunderstand. He’s my new yoga instructor, he’s teaching me new yoga moves,” Ji Qingyan explained.
n
n“I want to know which yoga instructor teaches his students with his legs crossed!” Ji Antai said.
n
n“Shouldn’t he be teaching them directly?”
n
nLin Yi, “???”
n
nThat was a pretty good idea!
n
n“He’s a high-level yoga instructor. He’s only in charge of verbal guidance and doesn’t usually do it himself,” Ji Qingyan said nervously.
n
n“Stop lying, do you think I don’t watch live broadcasts?”
n
nLin Yi, “???”
n
nHe watches live broadcasts?
n
nDoes your wife know about this?
n
n“Dad, listen to me…”
n
n“Stop talking. Go to the side. I have something to say to him,” Antai said as he pointed at Lin Yi.
n
n“Uncle Ji, what do you want to say?”
n
nAntai’s expression softened a lot in front of Lin Yi.
n
nThis person was very likely to be his future son-in-law, so he had to be nice.
n
n“Young man, What’s your name?”
n
n“Lin Yi.”
n
n“What do you do for a living?”
n
nIt looked like Ji Antai was going to get to the bottom of this.
n
n“Didi.” Lin Yi answered honestly.
n
n“What did you say? Didi?” Ji Antai’s eyes widened in disbelief.
n
n“I’m really a Didi driver.” Lin Yi said helplessly.
n
nWhat was wrong with this world? Would no one would believe the truth anymore?
n
n“Stop fooling around. How can a Didi driver chase after my daughter?”Antai said. “Unless you’re driving a sports car.”
n
n“You’re right. The sports car at the door is mine.”
n
n“You’re really driving a sports car?” Antai was surprised.
n
nWhen he came in, he saw a sports car parked at the door.
n
nHe thought it was his daughter’s new car, but it was actually her boyfriend’s.
n
n“Although my car is a little nicer, I really drive for Didi.”
n
n“That’s right.” Antai laughed.
n
n“To be able to use a sports car to drive a Didi, you must be a rich kid who doesn’t want to be ordinary. You’re much better than those rich kids who only know how to eat, drink, and play. I don’t need to worry about giving my daughter to you.”
n
nLin Yi was speechless.
n
nHow did your daughter suddenly belong to your son-in-law just because she did an s-squat?
n
nWas this not a forced sale.
n
nJi Qingyan sat down again, her face red.
n
nIt was really hard to explain now.
n
n“Little Yi, my father’s 80th birthday is in a few days. Since you two are together, there’s no need to hide it. You two can go together and let the rest of the family see you.”
n
n“That won’t be appropriate.” Lin Yi resisted. After all, they did not have a special relationship.
n
n“There’s nothing bad about it. Since you two are together, you have the right to participate in such a big event.” Ji Antai said:
n
n“Alright, I won’t say anything else. You two continue with your matters. Don’t let me affect your mood.”
n
nAntai stood up and left, leaving Ji Qingyan embarrassed.
n
n“Lin Yi, don’t listen to my dad’s nonsense,” Ji Qingyan pretended to be calm.
n
nLin Yi nodded and looked at the time on his phone. “President Ji, I have something else to do, so I’ll leave first.”
n
n“Leave? There are still eight more squats to do.”
n
nAfter saying that, Ji Qingyan realized that something was wrong. Wouldn’t it be better if she didn’t finish this embarrassing task?
n
n“Thanks for reminding me,” Lin Yi said.
n
n“I’ll owe you the remaining eight.”
n
n“Alright then.”
n
nSince she had already said it, there was no way she could go back on her word, so she had no choice but to acquiesce.
n
nAfter watching Lin Yi leave, Ji Qingyan returned to the villa and called her secretary.
n
n“Secretary Guo, there’s someone called Lin Yi in the sales department. Send me a copy of his information.”
n
nAfter giving her instructions, Ji Qingyan hung up.
n
nShe wanted to investigate Lin Yi’s dismissal.
n
nAfter leaving Ji Qingyan’s house, Lin Yi drove to Yi Pin Ju.
n
nIt was not a big deal that he was a few minutes late because of Ji Antai’s appearance.
n
n“I’m really sorry. I was stuck in traffic and was late.”
n
nWhen he arrived at the private room, he found that everyone in the sales department was already there. Thus, Lin Yi said embarrassedly.
n
n“It’s okay, we just got here too.”
n
nThe person who spoke was Wang Ying. She had been taking care of Lin Yi for a long time.
n
nShe was about thirty years old and had long hair draped over her shoulders. She was wearing a green floral dress, looking very charming.
n
n“Come, Yi, sit here. I’ve already reserved a seat for you.”
n
nWang Ying took down the clothes on the empty seat next to her and gestured for Lin Yi to sit next to her.
