"It's up to you. I can't stop you. But you really don't plan to stay in the company? I can arrange a sinecure for you."
"No." Zhao Si shook his head: "I don't want to occupy the toilet without doing anything, and I'm afraid that I can't help but practice again when I see you. I plan to just practice casually on weekdays."
"All right."
Lu Haochu signed his name reluctantly, approving the other party's resignation.
This will probably lead to a lot of criticism from the higher-ups later on, but maintaining the relationship with Zhao Si is obviously more important than that.
Even without considering the interests involved, he has to help this friend.
"Thank you."
Zhao Si left with his resignation letter, leaving behind only a free and easy back view. Along the way, countless company employees saw him off.
It was as if he was going to die.
For the monks, Zhao Si's departure was no less than death. The so-called casual practice on weekdays was just a delusion. Practice was like sailing against the current, and it was impossible to get through it easily.
Returning to mortal life means cutting off the path of spiritual practice.
Lu Haochu stood by the window and watched as Zhao Si drove away from the company. He withdrew his gaze and turned to ask his secretary, "How is the investigation of Sun Ling going?"
The secretary shook her head and said, "We have investigated all of her relationships over the past 10 years and found no signs of cheating, not even any online flirting."
"What a pity, she's a good woman."
Lu Haochu felt disappointed, yet also a little relieved.
The company spent a lot of manpower and resources on the investigation, so there would be basically no mistakes. Zhao Si only met her a few times a year, and most of the rest of his time was busy with official duties and spiritual practice. It was reasonable for Sun Ling to have cheated.
After all, the company's employees have a high probability of being cheated on, which has led to the introduction of relevant laws to protect them. Generally speaking, those who have a partner before practicing will be advised to leave, and the other half will be invited to drink tea and warned by the relevant departments.
With the combined efforts of both parties, the chance of breakup is as high as 95%.
In fact, when encountering such a situation, it is most likely that the relevant departments have investigated the situation and are taking preemptive action to prevent the cultivator's religious faith from being damaged.
But unexpectedly, the company couldn't find any negative information about Sun Ling.
On the other side, Zhao Si returned home and his fiancée had already prepared dinner.
The atmosphere was slightly silent.
Sun Ling suddenly said, "You'd better not resign. What I said before was just angry words."
Zhao Si smiled and said, "I've already resigned, so why would I regret it? Besides, since I've already promised you, I will do it."
"We're getting married next month. We'll send invitations to relatives and friends tomorrow."
——————————
A month later, it will be an auspicious day for marriage.
Li Yida and his family left Hanshui in an extended black car. This was the first time Li Yida had left home in nearly 10 years.
Although it did not cause any disturbance, the impact it brought had already spread across the entire Shenzhou. Countless wealthy and powerful families strictly restrained their children, and all the immortal sects warned their disciples not to cause trouble.
At the same time, the city's streets can become exceptionally clean, many cases that have been pending for years can be quickly resolved, the rule of law is clear, and the world is prosperous.
Li Yi sat in the passenger seat, leaning against the car window, looking at the tall buildings outside.
Many years ago, Yucheng was still a small city, but now it has become one of the largest metropolises.
Father Li, who is over 50 years old, was driving the car and said with emotion: "More than a decade has passed in the blink of an eye, and Xiao Si has finally started a family."
He glanced at Li Yi, wanting to take the opportunity to teach this bastard a lesson and ask him to learn from Zhao Si.
But considering the wives in the car, he could only keep it in his heart.
After so many years, Father Li has actually accepted it.
"So when will you retire?" Li Yi asked.
"What do you mean by retirement? I am still in my prime, and my career is flourishing." Father Li rolled his eyes at Li Yi and said, "If our family had an industry back then, we wouldn't have to borrow money from everywhere."
"Don't forget that Xiao Si has done a great favor to our family."
"I know."
"And Bai Shi." Father Li glanced through the rearview mirror and saw the frail woman sitting next to Mother Li.
The other person was chewing an apple, and when he heard someone calling him, he quickly put it down and sat down, very reserved.
"When will we give it to Bai Shi too..." Father Li stopped talking halfway.
Doesn't this mean he is encouraging his son to get his foot on the fourth boat?
The Zhao family mansion was filled with deafening gongs and drums, decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and various important figures coming and going.
