Urban Life: I Became Jiang Nansun's Landlord

Page 291

Lin Yi stood up and left with Yang Ke.

Lin Yicai was too lazy to indulge Ye Jinyan.

Who knew that Ye Jinyan would come running towards them when they had only gone halfway.

Seeing Lin Yi about to leave, Ye Jinyan deliberately said, "President Lin, are you leaving already? I invited you to dinner, isn't it a bit disrespectful of you to do this?"

Ye Jinyan was the one who was late, but he turned around and blamed her.

After he said that, he became the one who was wronged?

That's utterly shameless.

Lin Yi laughed and said, "No, when the appointed time came, President Ye was late. I thought something had happened to him, so I was very anxious."

"If something really happens to President Ye, we can help, right?"

Since they've come with ill intentions, let's not give them any more face!

Lin Yi had plenty of ways to deal with enemies.

Upon hearing Lin Yi's retort, Ye Jinyan's expression turned quite unpleasant.

He was the one who arranged it.

He was late on purpose.

But Ye Jinyan didn't expect how Lin Yi dared to do that.

Lin Yi's words clearly showed that he didn't take him seriously.

His renovation company is indeed doing very well, but so what? Even if his renovation company succeeds, as a real estate tycoon in Shanghai, he is not afraid of Lin Yi at all.

Not to mention his company, which is still growing.

"Shall we go in?" Lin Yi asked with a smile.

"Of course we'll go in. Since we're here, we should at least chat for a bit," Ye Jinyan said coldly.

"it is good."

After Lin Yi and Ye Jinyan went inside, each of them was accompanied by a person.

Lin Yi brought Yang Ke, and Ye Jinyan brought his secretary Fan Jingang.

After sitting down, Fan Jingang poured tea for Ye Jinyan.

As for Lin Yi, his anger was clearly not there to apologize, so there was no need for him to be served tea.

Seeing this, Yang Ke poured Lin Yi a cup of tea.

Ye Jinyan and Lin Yi drank tea, and for a moment, the room was quiet.

A few minutes later, Lin Yi had drunk half of his tea, but Ye Jinyan still showed no sign of saying anything.

Lin Yi said, "Mr. Ye invited me here, don't you have anything you'd like to say?"

Ye Jinyan looked at Lin Yi and asked in return, "Don't you know why I invited you here?"

"I'm sorry, I really didn't know that Mr. Ye invited me here without any purpose?"

"Is it just to invite me to dinner? But I'm not that familiar with President Ye." Lin Yi said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Ye Jinyan slammed down her teacup, no longer concealing her attitude.

Ye Jinyan said directly, "Yang Ke's attitude towards me is very disrespectful. I don't want to see him again in Shanghai."

Upon hearing this, Yang Ke secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, he had followed a good mentor; otherwise, he probably wouldn't have had a good career in Shanghai.

It's important to understand that Ye Jinyan is a real estate tycoon in Shanghai. Even if he can't control everything, no one wants to offend him.

There should be many people willing to give him face.

Yang Ke knew very well that if Lin Yi didn't protect him, his future situation would be extremely difficult.

He was happy when he pointed his finger at Ye Jinyan and cursed him, but the consequences were really important.

Yang Ke sat there, feeling a little flustered. He secretly glanced at Lin Yi out of the corner of his eye.

Lin Yi remained unmoved after hearing this.

Lin Yi took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Hey, President Ye, you're the chairman of such a big company, and you're not young anymore. Why bother arguing with a junior or an employee? It's really ungentlemanly."

Upon hearing this, Ye Jinyan was immediately furious.

He was the one being insulted to his face, and people were telling him to be magnanimous?

He even said he shouldn't have argued with an employee?

This kind of person is obviously no good.

Ye Jinyan said, "President Lin, to be honest, I really admire you. It's amazing that you've managed to take a traditional decoration company to where it is today."

I acknowledge your abilities, but if you insist on protecting Yang Ke, then you are my enemy.

I will show no mercy to my enemies.

"Hey, don't say that. We're just discussing it," Lin Yi said with a smile.

"What does President Lin mean?" Ye Jinyan asked.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "I don't think this is a big deal. Why don't you two shake hands and make peace?"

"boom--"

Before Ye Jinyan could speak, Fan Jingang, who was standing to the side, was already furious.

Fan Jingang slammed his fist on the table, pointed at Lin Yi, and shouted, "After all this talk, you're still going to protect Yang Ke?"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Yes, that's exactly what I meant."

Yang Ke is my employee, the company's vice president, and my partner. Of course, I have the responsibility and the obligation to protect him.

Also, Secretary Fan, please put your hand down. It's not your place to interrupt when I'm talking to President Ye.

Yang Ke was deeply moved upon hearing this. With such a powerful figure standing up for him, what did he have to fear?

Yes, he admitted that Ye Jinyan was impressive, but President Lin was also very impressive.

To put it bluntly, Ye Jinyan couldn't possibly have developed a decoration company to its current size in just four months.

Fan Jingang became even angrier when he saw Lin Yi's nonchalant attitude.

Ye Jinyan pulled Secretary Fan over and made him stand to the side.

Ye Jinyan said, "Since that's the case, there's nothing more to say. We'll see how things go from here."

"Okay." Lin Yi nodded.

Ye Jinyan smiled and said, "I'm very curious, where does President Lin get his confidence? Is it just because of your newly established Brilliant Real Estate?"

“Yes, is that not possible?” Lin Yi said with a smile, “If that’s not enough, we can add Miss Jiang’s decoration company.”

“That’s not enough either,” Ye Jinyan said.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "President Ye, don't overestimate yourself, and don't underestimate others."

Ye Jinyan smiled and said, "Okay, then we'll wait and see."

"I will make it impossible for Brilliant Real Estate to move an inch in Shanghai!" Ye Jinyan said, standing up.

After they finished speaking, they left.

This time, it's clear that the talks have broken down.

Ye Jinyan first took Fan Jingang away.

After Ye Jin left, only Lin Yi and Yang Ke remained in the room.

Yang Ke stood up and sincerely thanked him, saying, "President Lin, thank you so much for today."

"It was my oversight; I was too angry, otherwise I wouldn't have pointed at Ye Jinyan and started yelling."

Lin Yi laughed and said, "Did you enjoy the insults?"

Lin Yi's question surprised Yang Ke.

However, Yang Ke still answered truthfully: "Yes, I had a lot of fun cursing, but I regretted it as soon as I finished. I know what kind of person Ye Jinyan is. He won't let me off so easily."

Lin Yi patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "You told me in advance what you wanted to do, and I agreed. It's not your fault alone."

Besides, since the deed is done, there's no point in regretting it; just enjoy the insults.

Yang Ke smiled.

Lin Yi said, "You know how Ye Jinyan treats us, right?"

"Mm." Yang Ke nodded.

Lin Yi said, "As the old saying goes, 'He who strikes first gains the upper hand, and he who strikes last suffers the consequences.'"

Next, I don't care what methods you use, while you develop Brilliant Real Estate, you must also keep Jingyan Group occupied.

At the very least, we can't let it affect Ms. Jiang's renovation company; their development in the coming period is crucial for the company.

"Any method will do?" Yang Ke asked.

"Yes, any method will do. If possible, we can ruin his reputation first," Lin Yi said.

Lin Yi has never been a soft-hearted person; he either doesn't do things at all, or he's ruthless.

“I understand,” Yang Ke said.

Yang Ke thought for a moment and then told Lin Yi the truth: "I have a lot of dirt on Jingyan Group. This dirt is true. It's not a problem to smear and discredit Jingyan Group."

Actually, I have one more trump card for Jingyan Group.

Yang Ke was deeply moved by President Lin's words of support today, and he was determined to repay President Lin.

Therefore, Yang Ke decided to tell President Lin his biggest secret.

Lin Yi asked, "What?"
