Chapter 225: People become better with age
Luo Qinghan fell silent after hearing this.
At the end of the semester, she kept complaining and getting annoyed about these useless face-saving projects.
"You think it was your director's idea, but the college director just listens to the principal. Why did the principal say these things? Because these are some requirements issued by my father."
"."
Luo Qinghan didn't know what to say for a moment.
Lin Yi continued talking, treating it as a topic of conversation along the way.
"My father's position is not low, so naturally there are people who try to curry favor with him, but he almost always refuses them all, and he doesn't plan to continue to advance. As for you teachers, he is usually very kind."
"Isn't that good? It's not like what you said, that he is old and cunning."
Luo Qinghan did not refute Lin Yi, but just continued the conversation.
"That's because if he gets angry and wants to cause trouble, he'll go to his subordinates, such as the principal, instead of you."
"Ok."
This is how it is within the system, or rather, it is like this within all classes.
Those who criticize you are usually your direct superiors, because higher-ups need to maintain a people-friendly image in front of the public.
Of course, many of Lin Ye’s orders and words were also in accordance with the requirements of his superiors.
So, one level is pressing down on another. One of the reasons why Lin Yi doesn't really want to join the system is that it's impossible for him to be the biggest one.
But when the boss is doing business, he is the biggest one. If one day he is no longer the boss, he can just leave. The money he earns is enough for him to spend.
After an hour's drive, we arrived at Lin Hua's residence.
When getting off the car, Luo Qinghan was stunned, staring blankly at the scene in front of him.
This is completely different from the countryside she saw when she and Lin Yi went to the suburbs and traveled to Huzhou.
"What are you staring at?"
Lin Yi parked the car, picked up the suitcase and turned around to see Luo Qinghan and Garfield beside him looking at him stupidly.
“Is this really the countryside?”
"Why not? Do you see any buildings with more than seven floors around you?"
“But this is a villa community.”
Luo Qinghan thought that old man Lin Hua might live in the same house as his grandmother.
It could also be a common country villa or an old house.
But I never expected that I lived in a villa community.
"What's so strange about this? It's not a high-end villa, just an ordinary two-story building. Besides, a house here may not be worth a 60-square-meter small suite in the city."
“Is the gap so big?”
Luo Qinghan was even more surprised after hearing Lin Yi's words.
She bought the house in that luxurious community mainly because it was close to the school and had a good environment, and she didn't look at the price carefully.
After all, she is not short of money.
Lin Yi dragged his luggage inside, and Luo Qinghan hurriedly followed.
"The gap is really huge. Houses here are relatively cheap."
The two people and the cat walked in. Luo Qinghan saw that most of the residents in the community were elderly.
There were also some young couples who seemed to have come back to visit their elderly relatives.
Luo Qinghan was about to say something to Lin Yi, but when he turned around, he saw that Lin Yi had disappeared.
"What about people?"
"Meow~"
Garfield at his feet tugged at Luo Qinghan's trouser leg and pointed in a direction.
I saw Lin Yi had already arrived next to two old men who were playing chess.
One of them looked 50% similar to Lin Yi, and was obviously Lin Yi’s grandfather Lin Hua.
"Old man Mao, you're not good enough. You've lost three games to me." Lin Hua said to the old man opposite him with a big laugh.
The other party was not convinced and wanted to play another round. At this time, Lin Yi said, "Hey, come on, let me do it."
Only then did Lin Hua raise his head and find Lin Yi.
“Lin Yi?!”
Lin Hua was surprised and happy, and at the same time he saw Luo Qinghan behind him.
After saying hello, Lin Hua asked happily: "When did you come? I didn't even notice."
"Just now."
"Why didn't you tell me in advance so I could pick you up?"
"It's okay, it's okay, Grandpa, let me play a game with you."
Lin Yi sat directly opposite Lin Hua.
Lin Hua wanted to go in and put the luggage first, but Lin Yi said it was okay and let Luo Qinghan go by himself, as the upstairs was usually very clean anyway.
Although Luo Qinghan seemed a little angry after hearing this, he still went into the house and went upstairs with Garfield to make the bed.
"Where's my dad? He called me, why hasn't he arrived yet?"
Lin Yi asked Lin Hua while playing chess.
"Your father went back to your mother's home to celebrate the New Year. Didn't he tell you?"
"Okay, no wonder you didn't tell me when you would be back. So you ran away."
Lin Yi knew that if Lin Ye came here, he would definitely be asked by Lin Hua to do various tasks.
But if he followed his mother back to her parents' home, Lin Ye could lie in a chair, rest happily, and drink with his father-in-law.
The grandfather and grandson were playing chess and chatting at the same time.
It was the first time that Lin Hua met Luo Qinghan, so the topic naturally turned to Luo Qinghan: "I have always seen Qinghan in photos, but I didn't expect my granddaughter-in-law to be so beautiful."
"I was kidnapped by her."
"That's even better. You really got to enjoy it. When I was young, there were no girls trying to seduce me."
"That was because those girls didn't know what was good. My grandpa was so handsome."
Lin Hua smiled broadly when he heard this: "You little brat are more slick than your father."
"It runs in the family. It runs in the family."
Lin Yi smiled and raised his eyebrows.
"When do you plan to return this time? Or stay a few more days?"
"Maybe after the Lantern Festival. After all, the sale has just started, so there are bound to be some mistakes. I have to go and take a look. Foreigners don't understand the sales model here."
Lin Yi's original intention was to give himself a half-month vacation.
But Lin Hua's next words didn't sound like an attempt to persuade you to stay, but rather a suggestion: "If you stay a little longer, you'll have to spend more time on the road."
"what happened?"
Lin Yi immediately felt something strange. Lin Hua must have his reasons for saying that.
"I saw that Qinghan became quite popular online after appearing at the press conference. I was worried that it would cause trouble for her."
"I know this. I have asked someone to remove some videos related to her."
Lin Yi felt that there was nothing to worry about.
But Lin Hua said that Lin Yi misunderstood: "I'm not referring to this, I'm referring to the poor family members who are fighting over the family property."
"Grandpa, do you know this?"
Lin Yi was very surprised, because no more than a handful of people knew about this matter, not even Luo Qinghan knew about it.
"I'm just old, not stupid. I must get to know my granddaughter-in-law. Qinghan is so beautiful, and beauty is sometimes a resource."
Lin Hua was very calm, and continued, "And her stepmother is in the country right now. I'm worried that she might come to find Qinghan, causing some unpleasant things to happen."
