"This … I'm not too sure, it was arranged by Mr. Lai …" Kang stuttered.
"Fatty Lai?" Lin Yi was curious. Fatty Lai didn't seem like the type to abuse his power for personal gain. Even if she was his relative, he didn't have to do this, did he? Shaking his head, he said, "Forget it. Tell Fatty Lai that even if she's a backdoor entrant, put her in a department without a job. This company doesn't need her alone, but forget about the secretary. She's not a secretary, she's more like a manager!"
"This … I'll tell him," Kang smiled bitterly and nodded.
Lin Yi didn't dwell on this issue. Since this woman wasn't Kang's lover, it didn't matter. Lin Yi didn't bother with her. The company was so big that it was inevitable to have connections. Fatty Lai wasn't a saint, he couldn't just ignore his friends and family. Lin Yi understood.
"Let's not talk about this. If there's a chance in the future, let's go to Donghai and have a meal together." Lin Yi said.
"Yeah, I want to go too, but the company's business is expanding rapidly these days. I don't have any time at all!" Kang smiled bitterly. "But it'll get better after a while."
The phone on Kang's desk rang as they were conversing. Kang picked it up and said a few words before turning to Lin Yi apologetically. "I'm sorry, boss, something came up again. There's a client here, inviting me over for tea … …"
"Haha, go ahead. You're also working for me, why would I mind?" Lin Yi smiled. "I don't have anything to do, I just came to see you on the way!"
"Alright, I'll go to Donghai when I'm done here, boss …" Kang nodded.
Lin Yi and Kang left the company together and separated at the parking lot. Lin Yi looked at the time- there was still some time before school ended, so he drove back to his villa. It'd been a while since he went back, and Lin Yi wanted to clean up a bit. It was almost winter break, and Mengyao and Yushu would probably go back to Songshan. After all, they'd lived here for more than ten years, and a change of environment wasn't something they could adapt to so quickly.
In a high class room in Songshan's Starlight Hotel sat the hidden Zhuang Niaoqiang and Zhuang Niaopao!
"Brother, did you see it clearly? That girl beside Ziyu, she's a good furnace? "Zhuang Niaopao's eyes flashed with shock and greed.
"That's right, it's definitely true!" Niaoqiang nodded. "I didn't think that we'd get such an unexpected reward this time!"
The two brothers came to Songshan this time because of House Chen's invitation. Chen Xiaoba had his eyes on Ziyu and wanted to take her back as his wife, but Cihua was controlling him. Xiaoba wasn't satisfied with that, so he called the two brothers from the Hidden Zhuang House over to take care of things!
No matter how strong Li Cihua was, he was just a dog of House Zhao. The Zhuang brothers were different, however. They had the lowest salary in House Zhuang, second only to the big brother, Zhuang Niaodao!
Plus, Zhuang Niaodao was the future head of the house in name, in charge of everything in House Zhuang. To put it bluntly, Zhuang Niaoqiang and Zhuang Niaopao were more important to the hidden house! Zhuang Niaodao wasn't suited for practitioning, so he gave it up and went to Donghai Engineering University to study business management. It was actually managing the house as well. Zhuang Niaoqiang and Zhuang Niaopao, on the other hand, trained in combination techniques. Both of them were Earth class early phase peak, but their combination attacks could defeat Earth class mid phase, even mid phase peak. Even late phase Earth class masters wouldn't be a problem for them.
This was also why they dared to say that they were invincible under Sky class at the hidden house summit. They were indeed very strong! This time, they came to help Chen Xiaoba. On one hand, the two brothers wanted to thank the Chen family for their contributions to the hidden Zhuang family. On the other hand, they wanted to come out and relax. Previously, during the hidden family summit, the two brothers were too depressed. They wanted to show off their skills, but in the end, they didn't even dare to fight and left the stage.
But now that they thought about it, not fighting Lin Yi was the best decision they'd ever made in their lifetimes. If they really did fight Lin Yi, they'd either be crippled or dead. There was no third possibility! In this period of time, House Zhuang had received a lot of news about Lin Yi. Lin Yi had injured the Sky class of the hidden House You, and crippled the Earth class late phase peak of the hidden House Zhuang. This news touched the nerves of the hidden House Zhuang. Luckily, they didn't go against Lin Yi, or else they wouldn't even know how they died!
House Zhuang was different from the other hidden houses. Elder Zhuang was only an Earth class late phase peak, and he couldn't even take one move from Lin Yi. If he went against Lin Yi, he'd be a cripple. So sometimes Zhuang Niaopao and Zhuang Niaoqiang would think that if they didn't get close to Zhang Naipao and Lin Yi during the Ice Palace test, they wouldn't have to be so careful now.
With the protection of a god like Lin Yi, House Zhuang didn't have to worry about the other hidden houses harming them. Even though they invited the two brothers to help Chen Xiaoba, Zhuang Niaoqiang and Zhuang Niaopao didn't want to fight with House Zhao head-on. They wanted to kidnap House Zhao.
The reason was that House Zhao had Sky class masters, but House Zhuang didn't. They had to be careful! But with Lin Yi's protection, things were different. House Han was so weak in the past, but now in Donghai city, House Zhao had no choice but to lower their head. How powerful was that?
Of course, everyone knew that this was a fox borrowing the tiger's power. It was all because of Lin Yi. But they were hugging onto Lin Yi's thigh, and no one could do anything about it. House Zhao dared to provoke House Han? If they provoked Lin Yi, then their whole family would be done for!
But House Zhuang wanted to go to Lin Yi's side, but they couldn't. They didn't have the opportunity. If they went to Lin Yi and made him their boss, then Lin Yi would think that they had ulterior motives. He might not even accept them!
Thus, the hidden Zhuang Family was stuck between a rock and a hard place. In the past, the hidden Zhao Family and the hidden Han Family were at the bottom. After all, the hidden Zhao Family didn't have a Heaven Rank expert. But it was different now, the hidden Zhao Family also had a Heaven Rank expert!
