Li Yi stopped, turned to look at Wang Yan, smiled slightly, and said, "Let's skip the party. I have some things to take care of today."
A hint of disappointment flashed in Wang Yan's eyes, but she quickly regained her professional smile and said, "That's a real pity. However, if Mr. Wolf has the time, would you do me the honor of having a simple meal with me? I have some things to discuss with you regarding today's auction."
After a moment's thought, Li Yi said, "Let's do it another day! I really have a lot to do today!"
Just kidding, didn't you see there's a beautiful woman on each of my left and right sides?
I'm going to eat with you, what will happen to them?
Upon hearing this, Wang Yan could only say, "Alright, another day then. Mr. Wolf, I don't have your WeChat yet, could I add you?"
Wang Yan is a leading lady on Beijing TV. She is beautiful and has strong hosting skills, so Li Yi would naturally not refuse. There might even be opportunities to work together in the future.
Li Yi opened the WeChat QR code, Wang Yan scanned it, added him, and smiled sweetly, saying, "President Wolf, let's meet another day."
Lin Wanqing and Zhao Qingya were both stunned. They could tell that the beautiful host, Wang Yan, really wanted to spend time alone with Li Yi, but was directly rejected.
Li Yi spent so much money on himself, yet he never made any excessive demands. It seems he truly is a gentleman.
Li Yi nodded and led Lin Wanqing and Zhao Qingya outside.
At that moment, Li Yi suddenly saw a familiar face, and his heart skipped a beat.
The man was smiling as he walked towards Li Yi.
This man was Zhang Yifei's father, Zhang Guangyu, chairman of Xintian Mining Group.
Clearly, he had been at the auction the whole time.
However, with so many people around, Li Yi didn't notice him.
Li Yi and Zhang Yifei have a close relationship, and Zhang Yifei's favorability towards him is already 96 points.
However, Li Yi had not yet told Zhang Yifei about his trip to the capital.
I ran into Zhang Yifei's father here, and he was accompanied by two beautiful women, Lin Wanqing and Zhao Qingya. He had previously taken so many pictures and given them to the girls. It felt like he had been caught red-handed stealing.
However, Li Yi had a very strong mental fortitude, and that feeling only lasted for a moment before he regained his composure.
So what if I've already pushed Zhang Yifei down?
He has never publicly admitted to having a girlfriend, nor has he said that Zhang Yifei is his girlfriend.
So what if I'm single and have female companions?
Isn't this a normal thing?
After thinking it over, Li Yi smiled and looked at Zhang Guangyu, taking the initiative to greet him:
"Mr. Zhang, you're here for the auction too?"
Zhang Guangyu reached out and shook hands with Li Yi, saying, "Yes, I also came to join in the fun. I didn't expect to see you shine so brightly. By the way, Li Yi, how about coming to our house for dinner tonight? Yi Fei has been talking about you these past few days, saying she hasn't seen you in a while and misses you."
Zhang Guangyu, true to his old hand, directly mentioned in front of Lin Wanqing and Zhao Qingya that Zhang Yifei missed Li Yi and even invited him to her home for dinner, clearly indicating that their relationship was not ordinary.
This was intended to discourage the two women from pursuing their plans.
Just kidding, Li Yi is not only rich, but also has excellent medical skills and is handsome. Isn't he the perfect candidate for my son-in-law?
How could I let someone else take him away?
Li Yi secretly admired Zhang Guangyu's experience, but on the surface he remained calm and smiled as he replied, "Mr. Zhang, I'm really sorry, I do have some things to take care of today. I will definitely visit you and Zhang Yifei in person another day."
Lin Wanqing and Zhao Qingya were somewhat surprised upon hearing this, but they still maintained a polite smile on their faces.
They knew that Li Yi was so outstanding that he must have many women around him, but this was the first time they had ever heard of the name Zhang Yifei.
However, they could also glean some clues from Zhang Guangyu's words, realizing that Zhang Yifei held a special place in Li Yi's heart.
Zhang Guangyu wasn't someone Li Yi could easily dismiss with a few words. He continued, "Professor Li, Yifei has been looking forward to seeing you every day. She misses you so much that she can't eat or sleep. So please don't refuse. How about this, I'll have someone bring the car over first, and I'll call your Aunt Yang and ask her to cook for us. We can have a drink and catch up together. It won't take up much time."
After saying that, without waiting for Li Yi's reply, Zhang Guangyu dialed Zhang Yifei's cell phone.
"Hello, Dad," came Zhang Yifei's sweet voice.
Zhang Guangyu: "Yifei, I ran into Professor Li at the auction. He's coming to our house for dinner tonight. You should ask your mom to cook some of her best dishes."
Zhang Yifei had been missing Li Yi a lot these past few days. When she heard on the phone that Li Yi was coming to her house for dinner, she was so excited that she almost jumped for joy.
"Wow! Really? Brother Li is coming?! I'm so excited!"
Zhang Guangyu said, "Why don't you say a few words to him?"
Zhang Yifei: "Yes. Dad, give him the phone."
Zhang Guangyu looked at Li Yi: "Feifei wants to say a few words to you."
Li Yi had no choice. Zhang Guangyu was too shrewd, and Zhang Yifei had such a high level of affection for him that she was already his confidante. It wouldn't be good not to answer her call, so Li Yi took it.
"Hey, Feifei."
"Brother Li! Come quickly, I'll come to the door to greet you!" Zhang Yifei's voice was very sweet, and Li Yi could tell that she was very happy.
Li Yi had no choice but to say, "Alright, let's get ready to set off now."
"That's great! Feifei hasn't seen Brother Li for so many days. I'm so happy to finally see you again today!" Zhang Yifei made no attempt to hide her excitement.
"I'm happy too, see you in a bit."
After Li Yi finished speaking, he returned the phone to Zhang Guangyu.
Zhang Guangyu gestured for him to enter and said, "Professor Li, please. The car is parked right at the entrance."
Li Yi smiled helplessly, secretly admiring Zhang Guangyu's clever "methods," while also feeling a touch of warmth at Zhang Yifei's innocence.
Actually, Li Yi also misses Zhang Yifei.
He had planned to visit Zhang Yifei during his trip to Beijing, but he came to the auction first.
Li Yi turned to look at Lin Wanqing and Zhao Qingya, his eyes filled with apology, and said, "Wanqing, Qingya, I'll treat you to a meal another day to properly apologize."
The two women didn't know what to say.
Lin Wanqing was Li Yi's mistress, and she had no right to interfere with his extramarital affairs.
As for Zhao Qingya, she and Li Yi haven't reached the point of a romantic relationship yet, so she has nothing to say.
A moment later, Zhang Guangyu led Li Yi to a Cullinan, and Zhang Guangyu, the CEO of a company worth hundreds of billions, personally opened the door for Li Yi.
"Professor Li, please come in."
Li Yi: "Mr. Zhang, you're too kind."
Li Yi and Zhang Guangyu got into the car.
Twenty minutes later, we arrived at Zhang Guangyu's house.
Zhang Yifei had been waiting at the door for a long time.
As soon as she saw Li Yi, she excitedly ran over, ignoring her parents who were there, and rushed over to give Li Yi a big hug.
"Brother Li, you're finally here! I've missed you so much!" Zhang Yifei's voice was filled with joy and excitement.
