Officer Ma couldn't understand the riddle the two were playing, but he could see a hint of disappointment and disdain on Lu Yi's face.

Just as he was about to ask Lin Xiaoya about the evidence she had mentioned earlier, Lu Yi suddenly stood up.

"Senior Lin, this is the last time I'll call you that. I wish you all the best and hope you take care of yourself!"

Lu Yi was very sad.

It wasn't because his respected senior suddenly stood with Lu Han.

Instead, he felt sorry for his girlfriend, Liang Shiyue!

That sensitive girl might have even thought about being best friends with Lin Xiaoya for life.

"Lu Yi! Miss Lin, please have a seat for a while."

Officer Ma called out to him, walked up to him, and coughed with his hands on his hips.

“I’m being transferred in a few days, and I originally wanted to close the case related to you before I left.”

"It seems I was too hasty... But colleagues will follow up, so you don't need to worry."

Lu Yi was very surprised by this.

"Why am I being transferred again?"

With Fan Tong brought to justice, the theft gang that had been wreaking havoc in Jiangzhou was completely dismantled, and Officer Ma's team received commendations.

Lu Yi thought Officer Ma would be promoted because of this, but who would have thought that this was the ending that awaited him?

"Don't be nervous, I haven't finished yet!"

As he spoke, Officer Ma scratched the top of his head.

"As you know, Jiangzhou is a place with many social customs and interpersonal relationships, and I'm not good at handling these complicated relationships."

"My superiors let me choose for myself, so I chose to be a customs officer. I haven't moved for so many years, it's time for a change."

Seeing the tears welling up in his eyes, Lu Yi immediately realized the reason.

Lu Han wouldn't abandon Fan Tong, and Qin Fengying was a woman who loved her son dearly.

Once she gets involved, Lu Zhengming can't possibly not intervene.

In the end, we were still a step too late!

"Anti-smuggling is a very dangerous job, Uncle Ma, please be careful."

Seeing that his mind was made up and there was no room for negotiation, Lu Yi changed his mind about what he was about to say.

Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. Lu Han escaped death again this time, and he can't blame anyone else.

It can only be said that, apart from favorable timing and location, Lu Yi miscalculated the variable of human factors.

"Okay, that's settled for now. You can go back now, and we'll keep in touch later!"

To be honest, Officer Ma felt a little regretful.

But if he didn't want to shed this glory, there was no better way.

Lu Yi glanced at Lin Xiaoya's retreating figure, nodded to Lao Ma, and left.

There's no need to dwell on cases where the victim and the perpetrator are colluding!

Lu Yi entrusted the police to donate all the recovered funds to a welfare home near the school in his and Liang Shiyue's names.

After doing all this, he worked through the night to prepare a proposal and sent it to Gu Huainan.

Furthermore, the "Honey Whisper Ice Sweet" shop that was taken over from Lin Xiaoya has been re-listed as a transfer item.

The store manager had been considering opening his own store, and after seeing the transfer advertisement, he took the initiative to contact Lu Yi.

Lu Yi did not make an exorbitant demand.

Instead, they offered a price that both parties could accept, leaving the store manager wide-eyed in surprise.

"You know what? This shop broke even in just two months after business picked up. You're transferring it to me now without charging any extra fees. It's a huge loss for you!"

The store manager could tell that Lu Yi was a genuine person, and he spoke very frankly.

Lu Yi shook his head. "I'm about to start school, and my studies are my priority. I might not have time to manage it in the future. Rather than that, it's better to leave it to someone else."

The store manager then realized what was happening.

Lu Yi intended to transfer the shop to him, but he did this on purpose to avoid embarrassing him.

The contract was signed early the next morning.

The store manager didn't have much capital, and the terms stipulated that the transfer fee would be paid monthly and settled within one year.

Lu Yi did not discuss this matter with Liang Shiyue.

He was extremely worried.

Liang Shiyue might not be able to accept severing ties with Lin Xiaoya so completely for a while.

It's not too late to let her know later.

...

Upon seeing the details in the "project proposal," Gu Huainan shook his elder brother awake from bed that very night.

"Oh dear, brother, Lu Yi is indeed a genius! Get up and take a look..."

Gu Huaibei chatted with Fan Huijun until late at night before going to sleep, and was annoyed by her commotion early in the morning.

"You guys keep talking about Lu Yi, when will you ever stop?"

Fan Huijun did the same thing last night.

No matter what topic they talk about, it always ends up bringing up Lu Yi.

He felt like the name "Lu Yi" was dancing wildly in his head.

"I'm telling the truth. Our Gu family doesn't lack cash flow, what we lack are good projects. Look, garbage recycling..."

Gu Huaibei's lips twitched a few times when he heard the word "trash".

Even if you're short of projects, this isn't the way to look for them.

When did the Gu family fall so low as to collect scrap?!

“Hey bro, this isn’t your average garbage recycling project. Look, this project is for large companies, and it’s recycling their old, large machinery and equipment.”

Gu Huainan excitedly pulled him out of bed.

The proposal was incredibly detailed.

So meticulously, Gu Huainan was now only focused on the glittering profits before his eyes, automatically ignoring the entrepreneurial process.

The cinema project has stabilized, and after the father inquired about it, the Fan family also sent a representative to follow up on the project.

He and Lu Yi could just sit back and wait to count their money.

He originally wanted to meet with Lu Yi again before the start of the semester to see if he had any more money-making ideas.

Unexpectedly, Lu Yi had thought of it first.

Gu Huaibei propped his eyelids open, read the beginning, and then his eyes suddenly lit up.

"You're saying Lu Yi did this?"
