I GET A RANDOM NEW OCCUPATION EVERY WEEK

Chapter 2343: Chapter 2344: Repeatedly Taking the Blame

“Uh…”

Lin Yi paused, not knowing how to explain this.

It was like a LOL game, the other team had taken two dragons, leading by ten thousand in economy, while your side was just a bare crystal with three people lying in the fountain without respawning, looking utterly doomed.

Ji Qingyan looked at Lin Yi with a helpless expression.

“I also don’t know what’s going on, asking me is useless,” Lin Yi said, spreading his hands, with the demeanor of a pig not fearing boiling water.

Buzz buzz buzz—

Just then, Lin Yi’s phone rang, a WeChat video call from Gao Zongyuan.

Lin Yi was just about to find an excuse to hang up, but He Yuanyuan didn’t give him the chance.

“It’s Gao sending you the message, right?”

“Uh… It’s a colleague from my branch, not him.”

“Stop lying to me, I know exactly what you two are like.”

He Yuanyuan stood up, snatched Lin Yi’s phone, and answered the video call.

“Lin Bro… Yuanyuan…”

Gao Zongyuan looked bewildered at He Yuanyuan.

“Didn’t you say he was sleeping?”

“Yeah…”

“Then take a good look at who this person is in front of you.”

He Yuanyuan pointed the camera at Lin Yi, leaving the three people on the other side utterly bewildered.

“Cough cough cough…”

Lin Yi cleared his throat, “You can’t blame Gao for this; it’s mainly Old Qin and Old Liang, they weren’t done having fun and insisted on making him stay, so you guys might as well stop pretending, admit it if you should, I can’t cover for you anymore, just come back and apologize, then this matter will be over, it’s no big deal.”

Qin Han: ???

Gao Zongyuan: ???

Liang Jinming: ???

Damn you, could you at least act like a human!

“Gao Zongyuan, wait till you get back, see how I’ll deal with you!”

He Yuanyuan hung up the call furiously, making Lin Yi shiver.

It felt like Gao was in for it this time, if not dead then at least shedding a layer of skin.

“Let’s go, senior sister, I’ll come see you tomorrow.”

“It’s so late already, why don’t you stay here instead of going back?”

“I’d rather not be the third wheel here, this is really infuriating me to death.”

He Yuanyuan stormed off with her bag, leaving Ji Qingyan’s home.

“How come you’ve returned by yourself? The three of them staying there, they’re not really messing around, are they?”

“How could that be.” Lin Yi said:

“We went there to collect a debt, and it involved a lot of issues, I’ve resolved the main ones, so I came back to see you, the rest of the minor issues they stayed to handle.”

Lin Yi said with a perfectly straight face.

“It’s a serious matter, you could’ve just told the truth, Yuanyuan isn’t the kind of person who can’t see the big picture.”

“You still don’t know those three? Partying, eating, drinking, and playing, now that they finally have no one to monitor them, of course, they need to relax a bit more.”

“Then why did you come back?”

“My wife is pregnant, it’s such an important matter, how could I afford to delay time outside? Naturally, I have to come back after finishing the official business.”

“That sounds more like it.” Ji Qingyan held her head high, a look of pride flashed in her eyes, but soon she covered her cheeks with both hands, her gaze revealing worry.

“But I just checked, and apparently pregnant women will become very fat in the later stages, considering my current weight, by the time I’m about to give birth, I might even reach 150 pounds. Just thinking about it is frightening.”

“Although getting fat is common, there are also some people who don’t experience significant weight changes, so it’s not that exaggerated. Don’t scare yourself.”

“What if I really do get a lot fatter? My face will round out, my waist too, and my thighs will get thicker, I’m almost afraid to think about it.”

Lin Yi reached out his hand, gently stroking Ji Qingyan’s smooth black hair.

“I guess by that time, you probably won’t care about your weight and figure anymore.”

“Why?”

“Because at that time, you’ll be able to feel the baby’s vitality. He or she will be moving around in your belly,” Lin Yi said softly:

“If someone suddenly yells beside you, not only will you get startled, but the baby inside will react as well. It’s a magical feeling that men will never experience.”

Lin Yi’s words deeply moved Ji Qingyan. She hadn’t reached that stage yet and couldn’t fully comprehend it.

But she could imagine the wonderful feeling.

“You’re right, actually. I can get back into shape later on, but pregnancy and childbirth happen only once. As long as the baby is healthy, that’s better than anything.”

At that moment, Lin Yi suddenly realized that Ji Qingyan was more like a mother now.

Later in the evening, Song Lan and Ji Antai came back.

Only then did Lin Yi learn that they had taken their parents out to play cards.

However, they chose to stay in a hotel and didn’t return here.

Later, both of them went back to their room. Ji Qingyan went to freshen up, and Lin Yi called Chen Bingqiang.

“Chief Chen, happy New Year, I’m sending you early greetings.”

“It’s not an easy feat to receive New Year’s greetings from Director Lin,” Chen Bingqiang said with a laugh:

“Also, you’ve promised me several times to invite me for drinks, and I haven’t forgotten about that.”

“Don’t worry, I will arrange it. I’ve got plenty of time over the New Year, it all depends on when you’re available.”

“Alright then, I’ll call you after the New Year,” said Chen Bingqiang:

“Also, didn’t you ask me to take care of Li Xianghui? I’ve already arranged everything. He’s still in our system, now appointed as the head of the equipment department. He was a deputy division level before, now promoted to full division level. How’s that arrangement? If you’re not satisfied, let me know, and I’ll see what I can do.”

“Jumping two levels from deputy division to division level, if I’m still not satisfied, that would be ungrateful,” Lin Yi said with a laugh:

“Thank you, Chief Chen, for your help.”

“We’re all part of the same circle, no need for formalities. Don’t forget to invite me for drinks after the New Year, haha.”

“It’s a deal then, I will definitely keep you company.”

After a chat, Lin Yi hung up the phone.

In fact, the purpose of his call to Chen Bingqiang was indeed about this matter.

The department is quite lucrative, not to talk of opulence, but definitely enough to provide for a family.

Afterward, Lin Yi made a call to Gu Yiran, planning to accompany her to visit Li Xianghui the next day.

Early the next morning, Qin Yingyue and Lin Jingzhan returned because the lunar New Year was coming up tomorrow. They planned to head back to Yanjing and came to bid farewell to Ji Qingyan.

Qin Yingyue and the Ji Family were sitting on the sofa, holding Ji Qingyan’s hand, reluctant to let go.

Lin Yi and Lin Jingzhan stood aside, with the latter saying:

“Will you be going to Yanjing after the New Year?”

“I should make a trip. A lot has happened this year, and the leaders have given me a lot of support. I definitely need to network and visit the Central Guards Brigade to see how things are going. Why, all of a sudden, are you asking about this?”

“The international situation seems a bit off recently. I have a bad feeling. You also be careful and try not to make any mistakes.”
