Chapter 5  : How Do you know that I’m not as good as you? “Dear, we saw that your car was dirty, so we wanted to help you clean it.”

As she spoke, Liu Sisi saw Gu Jingshu and asked with a smile,

“She should be your secretary, right? In the future, I can help you with your work and daily life. You Don’t need her anymore.”

“Which eye did you use to view her as my secretary? Did you use your belly button to look at her?”

“Then what’s your relationship with her? You guys aren’t a couple, right?”

“Why not?” Lin Yi asked,

“Her front is curvier and her back is more upright than yours. Do you think I’d still fall for you?”

Gu Jingshu was nervous for a while. She didn’t even dare to believe it.

They’d only known each other for less than half an hour, and she’d been promoted so quickly?

Happiness came so suddenly that it was hard to believe.

He was a gentle-looking man. He wasn’t a scumbag who played with relationships, was he?

“Lin Yi, don’t tell me you don’t love me anymore? Have you forgotten about our romantic relationship? Even if she has a better body than me, her skills are definitely not as good as mine.”

“You...”

“How do you know that my skills are not as good as yours?!” Gu Jingshu retorted unhappily.

Losing was not always the same. Even if she had never experienced something like that before, she could not ignore it right now.

Lin Yi sighed. Being handsome and rich, it seemed that everyone wanted to involve themselves with him.

“If there’s nothing else, please make way for me. I’m leaving,” Lin Yi said lightly.

Liu Sisi and the others gave up their seats, stunned. Pagani’s gullwing door opened, and Lin Yi and Gu Jingshu got into the car before driving off.

Gu Jingshu’s eyes widened when she saw Pagani’s interior.

Supercars were different. Although Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi were considered good cars, they weren’t on the same level as Pagani.

“Mr. Lin, I hope you don’t misunderstand. What I said just now was just to anger her. I’m not a promiscuous person,” Gu Jingshu explained.

“I’m just a driver now. Your situation isn’t important to me.”

Gu Jingshu was a little disappointed, but she found it normal after thinking about it.

She had only known him for a short while and wasn’t familiar with him yet. There was no way he would have other thoughts about her.

“I apologize for what happened just now. I shouldn’t have threatened to complain about you guys.”

“It’s okay. We’re responsible for this.” Lin Yi replied as he drove. “Where are you going?”

“Jinxiu Hotel. My classmate’s having a wedding there.”

“Okay, I know where it is.” Lin Yi nodded.

No wonder she insisted on getting a Mercedes-Benz. It was to save face for the wedding.

..

There was an arched door made of balloons in front of the hotel, which made the place appear colorful and beautiful.

“What’s going on with Jingshu? It’s almost midnight, and the wedding is about to start. Why isn’t she here yet?” A woman with dyed yellow hair asked.

“Jingshu is different now. She has a rich boyfriend, and time is precious. She doesn’t have as much free time as us,” a short-haired girl replied. “A few days ago, she said that her boyfriend bought her a Mercedes-Benz, so she is a true rags to riches story.”

“Don’t listen to her bragging. A few days ago, I saw her squeezing on the bus. Where did the rich boyfriend come from? It’s just to show off.”

“That can’t be.” The short-haired girl said, “We are all classmates and not outsiders. Won’t she be bragging a little too much?”

“Our boyfriends are all young masters. She is an envious and jealous person. That’s why she said that. She is deliberately trying to anger us.”

“If you say that, I will really believe it.”

“Oh my God, look. It’s a supercar, it’s a Pagani Zonda!”

Hearing the shouts of the other guests, the women looked up.

To their surprise, they saw a silver supercar slowly driving toward them.

“Are they here for the wedding?” The blonde girl asked.

“Impossible. Yingying is our classmate. She and her husband are from an ordinary familys. How could they know a friend who drives a supercar? They must be passing by here.”

“But this car is so attractive. It must be worth over ten million.”

“That’s definitely possible.”

Under everyone’s gaze, Lin Yi parked the car at the entrance of the hotel.

The gullwing door opened and Gu Jingshu walked out while clutching her handbag. She stared at everyone.

“Jing… Jingshu, you actually came here in a supercar!”

“He… he happened to be free today, so he sent me here,” Gu Jingshu pretended to be nervous and prayed that Lin Yi wouldn’t expose her.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to keep this act up.

“Jingshu, you’re the best. How did you manage to get such a rich boyfriend? Tell me the truth. What did you do to get him?”

The women believed her. Jingshu wasn’t bragging as she seemed to have really gotten get a rich second generation boyfriend.

Jingshu bent down and looked at Lin Yi, who was sitting in the car. “Thank you. Drive safe.”

“Okay.”

Lin Yi nodded and drove away.

He used her as a shield before, and now they were even.

Ring, Ring, Ring…

Not long after he drove away, Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was the landlady.

Lin Yi’s landlady was a middle-aged woman named Wu Jinlan. She was in her forties, and her job was to play mahjong and collect rent from the three houses she owned.

Every time Lin Yi saw her phone call, he felt a shiver run down his spine.

This was because every time she called, it meant that she was chasing his rent.

However, this time, Lin Yi wasn’t afraid anymore. He wasn’t afraid at all.

It was just the rent. He could afford it!

“Lin Yi, you’re eighteen days behind on the rent. When are you going to pay this month’s rent?”

Wu Jinlan’s voice was heard as soon as the call connected.

“Don’t worry, I’ll send you the money now.”

“Come back quickly, I have something to do later.”

He could transfer the rent through WeChat, but Lin Yi didn’t plan to stay there anyway.

He didn’t have a house yet, but the Peninsula Hotel was his. He could move into the hotel, so why bother suffering in a rented room?

Thus, he would just go back to pack his things.

Lin Yi’s neighborhood was an old neighborhood that was nearly thirty years old.

Apart from the cheap rent, there were almost no other advantages to living there.

..

Heping District, Building 4, Unit 3, Room 602.

Wu Jinlan and her daughter were eating lunch while reading the popular grave robbery notes.

“Mom, it’s just ten days of rent. Don’t rush Lin Yi.”

The person who spoke was Jinlan’s daughter, Zhang Jingjing. After graduating from university, she had been studying at home, preparing to take the civil service exam.

Zhang Jingjing was not bad looking. She was not the same type of girl as Ji Qingyan, who was dignified and magnanimous. She looked more like a little girl next door.

“How could I not rush him? If he runs away one day, won’t we lose the rent that is owed?”

“No, Lin Yi isn’t that kind of person,” Zhang Jingjing replied.

“How do you know he’s not that kind of person?”Jinlan asked.

“I’m telling you, you’d better not have any thoughts about pursuing him. It’s impossible for something to happen between the two of you. I won’t let the two of you get together.” Wu Jinlan snapped

Lin Yi’s house was too shabby for Liu Sisi, so she rarely came by.

That was why Jinlan and her daughter didn’t know that Lin Yi had a girlfriend. They always thought that he was single.

“Why not? Lin Yi is not only handsome, but he’s also good at his job. I think he’s pretty impressive.”

“What’s the use of being attractive? He’s not a meal that you can eat.” Wu Jinlan said.

“You’re going to be a civil servant in the future. When you break into the public sector, with your looks, the guy who will be chasing after you will definitely be better than Lin Yi. Why bother settling for an employee like him?”
