“If they have the upper hand in this matter, we’ll be in a difficult position.”

They had to be reasonable in everything. They had to do things logically, so they could not use force.

“But 1 think the reason is still a little far-fetched. This is only a theoretical possibility.”

Qi Xianzhao was also full of anger. It was not easy to anger an honest person like him to this extent.

“At the beginning, when we hadn’t entered the dry season yet, they just seized upon the theoretical impossibility to prevent our traditional operations. Now that we’re officially in the dry season and the theoretical possibility has increased, their attitude has become even more firm. It’s evident they’re just trying to take us for a ride.”

“According to you, even during dry season, the possibility of the freighter running aground is only theoretical, right?”

“Yes,” Qi Xianzhao said.

“Did any cargo ships of the same type pass through while you were there?”

Qi Xianzhao shook his head. “No. The other ships had a much lower capacity, but 1 still feel that this is not a reason.”

“After docking for such a long time, the ship’s custodial fees and expenses are sky-high. This business is not profitable to begin with. If this continues, we will have to pay at least 10 million yuan.”

“If there’s nothing fishy about this, 1 don’t mind compensating them a little.” Lin Yi said.

“But being forced to drop anchor is a little humiliating. Have you considered other routes?”

“If we don’t use the Panem Canal, we’ll have to bypass Ooguay and Arjenia. It’ll be more costly and more dangerous to go through the Pacific in this way. It’s not a logical route.”

“I’ll tell you what. Contact two smaller freighters, load the cargo separately, and ship it back through the Panem Canal.”

“That’s the only option for now,” Qi Xianzhao said.

“But 1 still can’t take this lying down. 1 keep feeling like they’re intentionally attacking us.”

“There might be other conflicts of interest involved. We’re just victims. In other words, this is a natural disaster.” Lin Yi said.

“What’s that saying again? If you can’t resist, just split open your legs and enjoy it silently.”

Qi Xianzhao smiled knowingly.

“I’ve heard this joke before, haha…”

Although he was an honest man, he was still a man. He had heard such dirty jokes before.

“Then don’t think so much. Speak louder. I don’t want to see you depressed again.”

“Got it.”

Lin Yi didn’t care about this deal. He just needed to deliver the goods safely.

There was still a few million in profits to be made. If they cut their losses in time by doing this, the money they lost would be covered by this few million in profit. They would not end up making a loss.

Lin Yi stood up and patted Qi Xianzhao’s shoulder.

“Let’s leave this matter to the subordinates. With the New Year approaching, you should take a break and relax. Find a place to have some fun. The company will cover your expenses.”

“Thank you, President Lin.”

Qi Xianzhao smiled as he made two cups of coffee and handed one to Lin Yi.

“The company’s annual meeting is about to begin. President Lin, do you want to go on stage and present it? 1 heard from President Tian that there are some employees who still don’t know you.”

“Showing my face in public isn’t for me. Go in my place.”

“I don’t think I’ll have the chance.” Qi Xianzhao smiled and shrugged.

“Yuanyuan volunteered to take over this role.”

“I knew it. She’d rush to take this opportunity to show off.”

Qi Xianzhao smiled and said nothing.

It was said that an enemy knew you best. This was the most suitable sentence to describe President Lin and Yuanyuan.

In the following days, as the New Year approached, the atmosphere became increasingly festive.

Both malls and supermarkets were filled with items related to the New Year, enhancing the holiday spirit. People were immersed in the joy of the upcoming holiday break.

“Mr. Lin, what do you think of my new dress?”

Ji Qingyan stood on the second floor, showing Lin Yi the red dress in her hand.

“Although the color is quite festive, isn’t it too formal? It might not be suitable for everyday wear, and isn’t it a bit early for this weather?”

Lin Yi had never felt anything about Ji Qingyan’s attire.

Firstly, she was good-looking and could wear anything.

Secondly, Ji Qingyan’s clothes were top-notch, and she could hardly go wrong when it came to clothes.

However, Lin Yi didn’t say that she looked good in everything. That would be too perfunctory.

Different views and opinions had to be put forward, which showed that he made a serious reflection on the issue.

“Tomorrow night is the annual meeting of the two companies. 1 have to go on stage to speak, so 1 have to dress formally.”

“In that case, 1 understand. This is perfect for it.”

“Hehe, I’ll wear this then.”

“You are going on stage tomorrow too, right? I’ll go get you a suit.”

“He Yuanyuan took the role for herself. She didn’t give me a chance to accept.”

Ji Qingyan smiled.

“Yuanyuan’s personality is indeed like this. However, with your style, even if Yuanyuan doesn’t fight with you, you wouldn’t go on stage to speak, right?”

“Clever.”

Looking at Lin Yi, Ji Qingyan laughed even harder.

“It’s usually those newlywed young brides who feel shy to show up. How come our esteemed Lin CEO is feeling the same way?”

“I mean, I only have these two organs to differentiate my front and my back, unlike our esteemed President Ji, who’s already a 36D, and has the pride to show off. I naturally feel embarrassed to step up.”

“But 1 don’t think I’m as big as I used to be, because I’ve lost weight recently.”

Ji Qingyan had no qualms about talking about this topic in front of Lin Yi.

“Isn’t the answer simple? According to scientific evidence, it’ll get bigger if you massage it.”

“Hooligan.”

“But you don’t have anything to do tomorrow, right? Come with me. It’ll be boring for me to be alone.”

“Okay.”

After settling the matter with Lin Yi, Ji Qingyan turned around and returned to the cloakroom, preparing to find the other clothes she was going to wear tomorrow.

The next morning, after sending Ji Qingyan off, Lin Yi drove to Li Chuhan’s place.

The new year was in a week. He was going to bring her out to buy some new year goods.

“You don’t have to come to me all the time. I can take care of myself.” Li Chuhan looked at Lin Yi with gentle eyes, like a clear spring.

“I definitely have to take care of this myself. Nobody can take care of you better than I can.”

The corners of Li Chuhan’s lips curled up into a charming smile.

In the morning, he accompanied Li Chuhan to the mall to buy some new year goods before sending her home. Then, he drove to the Peninsula Hotel.

Originally, he had planned to go to Chaoyang Group and head over with Ji Qingyan.

After the phone call, Ji Qingyan said that she would be out with He Yuanyuan. When the two of them arrived together, Lin Yi would come alone.

Seeing Lin Yi, Wang Tianlong walked over like a lackey.

“President Lin, 1 have good news for you..”
