Li Xin’s gaze turned towards Lin Yi.He sized him up for a while.
"Are you the one who got into a fight with our security?"
Lin Yi leaned against the car, raising an eyebrow at Li Xin.
"Asking doesn’t mean much, you better leave now, otherwise I’ll beat you up too."
"You sure have some guts, don’t think that you..."
Wham!
Without giving Li Xin a chance to blabber, Lin Yi lifted his leg and kicked him squarely in the chest.
The latter couldn’t react in time and was knocked down by Lin Yi’s kick.
"Brother Xin."
Zhou Tianlei exclaimed in surprise and rushed to help Li Xin up.
Looking at Lin Yi, their eyes were filled with fear.
The coldness in those eyes was terrifying.
"Are you guys journalists or thugs? Don’t go overboard!"
Lin Yi laughed in anger.
"You’re really the guilty ones crying out first; it should be me saying this."
"We’ll take the loss today, but this isn’t over!"
With a threat, Zhou Tianlei supported Li Xin and left.
Lin Yi was both amused and exasperated.
"Clearly, they’re the ones bullying others, yet they act like the victims, really shameless."
"In this world, only the shameless ones live well; those who care about face always suffer losses."
"You’re absolutely right."
"Guess we’ve really strained our relationship now." Zhou Li said:
"You two better be careful for a while, I worry they’ll try to retaliate."
"Let them come, it’ll give me a chance to stretch out."
"I don’t mind, I work at the police station, not afraid of people like them."
"Wow, you two big guys are too much." Zhou Li retorted:
"I’m all alone, can’t handle their harassment."
"That’s easy, let Lin Yi pick you up from work every day, be your bodyguard."
"Get lost, that’s a rotten idea." Zhou Li teased, laughing, "If he really picks me up every day, his wife might divorce him."
Laughing and chatting, the three of them found their respective cars, none of them caring about Li Xin.
Despite the lessons learned, their situation was different from Zhang Laoer’s; being a journalist is the best shield.
Lin Yi drove to the kindergarten to pick up Little Nuonuo.
The timing was perfect, as he saw the kindergarten teacher leading them out.
In the crowd, Ji Qingyan was still the most noticeable.
Wearing black sweatpants, red sports shoes from an LV and NIKE collaboration, and her hair casually tied up, she looked very homey.
"Hey beautiful, got time for dinner tonight?"
"No..."
Ji Qingyan instinctively began to refuse, but turned around to see Lin Yi speaking, and her face lit up with joy.
"Why are you off work so early today?"
"Didn’t I work overtime yesterday? Just left a little earlier today."
"Your work is quite flexible."
"Indeed."
"Mom and Dad!"
At this moment, Little Nuonuo’s voice came.
Carrying her little backpack, she ran towards them like a happy little bird.
Lin Yi squatted down, smiling broadly, and lifted Little Nuonuo up in his arms as they walked toward the car, asking:
"What did you learn in kindergarten today?"
"We learned to make tangyuan." (sweet glutinous rice balls)
At the mention of tangyuan, Little Nuonuo’s eyes sparkled.
"Mommy, take it out! It’s in my backpack!"
"Let me see how yours turned out."
With a gentle smile, Ji Qingyan opened up Little Nuonuo’s backpack.
Inside were some leftover cherries and strawberries, and a semi-transparent box containing a fist-sized, moist object.
Ji Qingyan took out the small box and shook it in front of Little Nuonuo.
"Is this the tangyuan you made?"
"Mm-hmm!" Little Nuonuo nodded vigorously, "I made a big one for both of you."
"Why is it so wet?"
Little Nuonuo looked at Ji Qingyan with wide-eyed curiosity.
"Mom, you’re so silly. Of course, tangyuan must be cooked after being made."
"Um... cooked..."
Ji Qingyan understood the so-called "cooked" meant after gazing at the tangyuan in the box.
It might not have been truly cooked, just soaked in water.
After all, children can’t deal with open flames or appliances when playing games.
"Mom, try it!"
"Mom’s full, daddy works hard earning money, let him have it."
Lin Yi: ???
This is a bit much.
"Daddy’s money is blown by the wind, not hard at all, let mommy eat it."
"Mommy..."
Ji Qingyan pinched Lin Yi’s waist.
"Give it to your grandpa when we get home."
"Mm-hmm."
Lin Yi made sure mom and daughter were in the car, then returned to his own and drove back home leisurely.
Upon arriving home, the first thing Little Nuonuo did was give her tangyuan to Ji Antai to eat.
But he mercilessly refused, causing Little Nuonuo to threaten never to play with him again.
The next morning.
Lin Yi was off to work as usual.
He checked the tracking number for the sample sent yesterday, it had been delivered.
If things go well, results could be due by tomorrow.
Comfortably, Lin Yi went to the office.
Everyone else was already there; he was the last to arrive.
Upon arriving, he noticed everyone looking worried, as if something troubling had occurred.
"What’s up everyone? Why the long faces?"
"Look at this."
Dong Xiao handed his phone over to Lin Yi, showing an advertisement poster.
A homely-looking woman holding cold medicine with a gentle expression.
In blank areas, there was the slogan.
[Starts working in one dose, 24-hour effective fever relief.]
"Isn’t this just an ad? What’s about it?" Lin Yi asked casually.
"But this isn’t just any ad." Dong Xiao said:
"This medicine, Qing Tui Ling Granules, is produced by Shengxin Pharmaceutical Factory, and that woman there is one of our station’s hosts."
"Huh? What a coincidence, which show?"
"Entertainment Frontline."
Lin Yi settled back in his chair, thinking for a long while.
Entertainment shows differ from other news programs; working here allows close contact with the entertainment circle.
Some hosts and journalists have online followers, so it’s commonplace for them to endorse products.
Now, this matter involves a host from the station, making it increasingly complex.
"How did you guys find out about this?"
"It was Little Zhao who found it; otherwise, we’d be in the dark about this, didn’t expect it to involve our own people."
Lin Yi was both amused and exasperated.
It started with reporting about waste water discharge and unexpectedly led to so much drama.
Can we even run the show now?
