Chapter 118: Shen Yi's Background
Anyone who is not stupid will know that Shi Yanran has no good intentions.
She didn't say what the video was about, so it was impossible to tell whether the video was directed at Shi Jingyuan or Lin You.
Lin You wanted to leave, but was afraid of missing out on important information.
After all, knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle. If this video is not favorable to them, it may not be a bad thing to know and deal with it as soon as possible.
"Mr. Xu, can I leave for a while?" Lin You turned to Xu Feng and said.
Xu Feng's worry was written on his face. "I'll wait for you in the car. If you need anything, call me and I'll come right over."
"Okay. Thank you."
Lin You followed Shi Yanran to a corner behind the venue.
Shi Yanran couldn't wait to open the video on her phone.
The video shows Shi Jingyuan and an old man sitting on the sofa. The old man had appeared in the news media. He was the head of the previous generation of the Shi family, Mr. Shi.
The voice in the video was very clear. It was Shi Jingyuan saying lazily and casually that he just treated Lin You as a toy, a toy that was not worth too much worry from the person in charge of the Shi family.
Lin You couldn't describe how he felt when he saw this video.
She knew that the gap between her and Shi Jingyuan's status was too big and that the two of them had no future.
But knowing and facing it in the most tragic way are different.
There were turmoil in his heart, but he showed no sign on his face.
Lin You raised his head and glanced at Shi Yanran calmly, "That's it? What's so good about it? It's just a fact that everyone knows. Who can you use it to attack?"
After a pause, Lin You smiled provocatively and said, "By the way, why don't you send this video to Shi Jingyuan? He's definitely interested in who filmed him secretly."
After saying that, Lin You left without looking back.
Shi Yanran looked at her back as she left, her hand holding the phone trembling with anger.
She actually looked down on this lowly poor man!

The grand celebration party that was planned in the air could not be held tonight. Something unexpected happened at Xu Feng's home and he had to go back to his hometown, so the celebration party was moved to tomorrow.
Lin You also remembered that he had promised Shen Yi to help him celebrate his promotion in the evening, so he had no objection to parting ways with Xu Feng.
Since Chen Lingling was discharged from the hospital, she has lost a lot of weight.
When Lin You suddenly saw it, he couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
Chen Lingling smiled heartlessly, "I'm fine. I look better when I'm thinner. I tried to lose weight before but couldn't, but now I'm finally satisfied."
Having said that, Lin You still felt that Chen Lingling was not as cheerful as before.
The two met at the gate of the community and bought some fruits and flowers before heading towards where Shen Yi lived.
Chen Lingling had met Lin You's junior once or twice before. In her words, he was a blue chip stock. It was simply unacceptable that a man of this level didn't have a girlfriend.
At that time, she even joked that this junior must be interested in Lin You. At first, Lin You didn't believe it, but now...
Lin You sighed, and the more he thought about it, the more headache he felt.
The two arrived at the door and Lin You raised his hand to knock.
Soon, footsteps were heard inside the door.
Shen Yi was wearing an apron and holding a spatula in her hand. "Senior Sister, Lingling Sister, please sit for a while. I'm still cooking in the kitchen."
After the two of them responded, they changed into slippers and went in.
After putting the flowers and fruits away, the two came to the door and asked if they needed help. Shen Yi just said no and told them to just wait for dinner.
The two women looked at each other and sat on the sofa to chat.

Before Shi Jingyuan boarded the plane, he received a call from Qian Ling.
Qian Ling seemed very anxious and spoke very quickly.
“I found Shen Yi, whom you asked me to help you check last time.”
Shi Jingyuan sensed the seriousness in Qian Ling's tone and said in a deep voice, "Speak."
Qian Ling didn't waste any time and immediately asked, "Have you heard of the drug lords in Country G?"
Shi Jingyuan: "Of course. The whole world knows how rampant the underworld is in this place. Many officials have been assassinated as soon as they take office. How is it that Shen Yi is related to these people?"
Qian Ling nodded. "There's a big drug lord in Country G, his last name is Shen. Shen Yi is that big shot's illegitimate son, and he was only recognized as his son four years ago. Shen Yi returned to China last year with funds to start a business. With the funds and connections, his company was able to develop so quickly."
Shi Jingyuan once guessed that Shen Yi might have a strong background. After all, not many people dared to challenge him even though they knew his identity.
He just didn’t expect that Shen Yi’s background would be like this.
Facing Cheng Hao, Shi Jingyuan could have no worries at all, because he knew that Cheng Hao would not do anything to hurt Lin You.
But if Shen Yi came from this kind of background, according to the inertial thinking of the gangsters, no one could control what they would do when they went crazy.
Qian Ling added, "There's one more thing. He was the one who sent the photo to your grandfather."
Hearing this, Shi Jingyuan's light black pupils shrank and his expression sank to the bottom.
After hanging up the phone, Shi Jingyuan walked to the smoking area in annoyance, smoked a cigarette, and then called Lin You.
Lin You just went into the bathroom and put his phone on the sofa.
Chen Lingling was eating fruit and looked down at the caller ID. "Hu Baoer's father"
She knew Hu Baoer. Lin You was Hu Baoer's mother, so who was Hu Baoer's father...
Chen Lingling almost choked to death on the fruit in her mouth. After finally swallowing the fruit, she was in a dilemma holding her phone.
She shouted in the direction of the bathroom where she was washing her hands: "Xiaoyou, I always look for you when you're home!"
Lin You's voice came from inside the door, "Please answer the call for me and tell him I'll call him back later."
Chen Lingling scoffed and joked, "You're just worried about me for two more minutes when you can't bear to leave your home. Okay, I'll answer the phone for you."
She pressed the answer button and said, "Hello, Mr. Shi, it's me, Chen Lingling."
She didn't want to hear the privacy of her boss and her best friend, so she just introduced herself to avoid misunderstanding.
On the other end of the phone, Shi Jingyuan was stunned for a moment before saying, "Hello. Xiaoyou often mentions you."
The boss was quite polite and not at all the cold and callous person I had imagined.
Chen Lingling was very satisfied and said with a smile: "Xiaoyou is not available now, I will call you back later."
"Okay." Shi Jingyuan didn't say much. After a pause, he instructed, "Please help me look after her... I'll find a chance to treat you to dinner after I get back from the plane."
Chen Lingling nodded repeatedly, "Okay! No problem, I will definitely stay by her side and take care of her every step of the way!"
In the kitchen, the vegetables in the pot were already giving off a burnt smell, and the hot oil was making a sizzling sound.
Shen Yi held up the spatula, his eyes filled with gloom, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"Your family always..."
Shen Yi snorted coldly, muttering these words, his heart felt like being stabbed by a knife, the pain made his expression begin to twist hideously.
He had waited cautiously for so many years, and it was clearly... it was clearly his chance, but he had snatched it away just like that!
