Chapter 110: Never Forget
To Lin You's surprise, she told Shi Jingyuan about this before going to bed that night.
Shi Jingyuan thought for a long time before he remembered which company under the Shi family she was talking about.
"That's a company managed by one of my cousins. Don't feel burdened. If you can snatch the project from him, it's your ability."
Lin You leaned on his chest and asked, "From your tone, you seem to have an average relationship with him?"
Shi Jingyuan played with her hair and responded softly.
"He used to be my would-be boss's rival, but now he's lost to me."
He was just stating a fact, but it reminded Lin You of his identity.
Lin You: "But, to be your competitor, he must be very powerful, right?"
Shi Jingyuan remained noncommittal. "It's alright. He has some business skills, but he's not very good at judging people. So when he meets someone truly capable, like you, it's hard to tell who will win."
Lin You laughed happily when he heard what he said, "So Mr. Shi thinks so highly of me."
She worked overtime every night to draw design drafts. He had seen those drafts and knew that she really had real skills. He was not just trying to please her.
Shi Jingyuan thought about this and felt a little distressed about the tiredness on her face. After turning off the lights, he hugged her and said, "Okay, go to bed."
Lin You agreed, but as soon as he put his hands back into the quilt, he became restless.
Three minutes later, Shi Jingyuan cursed softly and said in a deep voice, "You asked for it!"
I was planning to let her have a good sleep, but who knew this woman would play with fire.
In the darkness, Lin You just smiled, not afraid of the harsh words he said at all.

Two days later, He Xuan reported the information he had found to Shi Jingyuan.
"The last photo the old man received was sent back from abroad."
Shi Jingyuan raised his eyebrows, "Abroad?"
He Xuan nodded, "We've already sent someone to investigate through overseas channels, but it will probably take some time to find out the specific information."
"Yeah." Shi Jingyuan responded indifferently.
He Xuan hesitated for a moment and couldn't help asking, "Boss Shi, do we need to ask the people in Licheng to deal with Bi Hai Yun Tian?"
If the stain of Bi Hai Yun Tian continues to be on Lin You, people will always bring it up and talk about it.
Upon hearing this, Shi Jingyuan looked up at He Xuan and asked, "You are very familiar with her. Do you think Bi Hai Yuntian would do something like accompany drinking?"
He Xuan shook his head repeatedly, "No. Sister Lin You is not that kind of person."
Shi Jingyuan chuckled, "Her care for you wasn't in vain. I asked her, and she went to Bi Hai Yun Tian to break up with Chen Lang. She used the method of self-degradation to make Chen Lang give up."
He Xuan pondered for a moment and sighed, "That's what Sister Lin You would do. She doesn't care that much about other people's opinions. In this respect, she's better than many people."
Shi Jingyuan waved his hand, "Alright, stop calling me Sister Lin You. She's not your biological sister."
He Xuan twitched his lips and said, "Boss Shi, you're even jealous of this..."
"What? Do you have any objections?" asked Leng Sheng.
He Xuan didn't dare to do that and quickly left the office.
After he left, Shi Jingyuan frowned.
He Xuan was right in saying that this matter cannot be allowed to continue. There is no telling what the person hiding behind the scenes and stirring up trouble will do.

In the past two weeks, Shi Jingyuan went on a business trip abroad, and Lin You was extremely busy, and he had visibly lost weight.
The weather was getting colder and it snowed for three days in a row. The sanitation workers kept cleaning the road, but they could only barely make the road clear.
After working overtime, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
She was so busy that she didn't even have time to eat dinner. After leaving the company, she wrapped her scarf tightly and prepared to go to the alley next door to eat a bowl of hot noodles.
At this time, the boss was already preparing to close the shop. When he saw Lin You coming in, he was about to refuse her. However, when he saw her face clearly, he welcomed her in.
"I remember you."
The boss took a rag and wiped the table in front of Lin You.
Lin You looked up in surprise, thought about it carefully, and suddenly realized.
"I was saying this shop looked familiar. Now I remember you are Shen Yi's uncle. When Shen Yi and I met in Jinggang City, we had noodles at your shop."
That bowl of noodles was made for her by Shen Yi.
Speaking of Shen Yi, Lin Youcai remembered that she and Shen Yi had very little time to meet since she moved out of Shangcheng Apartment.
Plus I've been busy lately, I haven't seen him for more than half a month.
I used to be able to play games with him, but now I don’t even have time to play games.
The boss’ attitude towards Lin You was very enthusiastic, “Yes, I knew that the girl that Shen Yi had been thinking about for so many years, how could she be so heartless.”
When Lin You heard the hidden meaning in his boss's words, his eyes widened immediately.
"Boss, did you misunderstand something?"
The boss stood behind the chopping board, cooking noodles while saying, "I didn't misunderstand. Chen Yi, this kid, has a very cold temper. In all these years, I have never seen him be kind to any girl. Even to you, his attitude is like he wants to hold you in the palm of his hand."
Lin You blinked, thinking that the boss was really good at joking.
When Shen Yi was with her, he was a very warm-hearted junior. He always had a gentle smile on his face, and he was not cold-hearted at all.
Seeing that she didn't believe him, the boss sighed, hesitated for a moment and made a decision.
“Girl, have you ever been to Shen Yi’s company?”
Lin You shook his head.
The boss said meaningfully: "When you have time, you can go to his company and see how he behaves in front of other people."
Lin You was skeptical, "Well, when I get a chance, I'll definitely go and find out."
After a while, the hot noodles were served.
Tomato and egg noodles.
Lin You then remembered that she had never told the boss what kind of noodles she wanted since she entered the store, but the boss just made this.
Although, she really liked it, but it always felt weird.
The boss saw her confusion and said something more.
"Before Shen Yi was found by that family, he had been working part-time in my shop to earn a living. This was what he did the most. He said... he would practice more, and when that person tasted it, he would be amazed."
"When you reunited that time, he made this bowl of noodles for you. I knew that the person he had been waiting for was you."
If he didn't say these words, with Shen Yi's personality, he would probably never say them in his life.
Lin You took a few bites of noodles, and a warm feeling spread from his stomach to his limbs.
She paused and asked, "Boss, why are you telling me this?"
The boss sighed deeply, took off his apron and sat down on the bench opposite Lin You.
"Chen Yi came to my shop a few days ago. His condition..."
The boss considered his words carefully before speaking.
"He's not in a good state, like he's planning something big. He's suffered a lot since he was a child, and I've never seen him look so determined, so I'm a little worried."
