Lin Yi remained silent for a long time under Jian Zhizhen's persistent questioning.
But in the end, he quietly pushed her hand away, said nothing, and walked back to the villa.
As Jian Zhizhen watched his retreating figure, she slowly realized that she had acted impulsively today.
Suddenly telling him out of the blue that he's her brother would definitely scare him.
I'll have to make up an excuse to get away with it later.
She took a deep breath to calm herself down and followed them into the villa.
In the living room of the villa.
The other seven guests were already seated, while Grandma Li huddled in a corner, looking helpless.
Upon seeing Lin Yi and Jian Zhizhen enter, Zhou Sui was the first to call out, "Director, Zhenzhen, come over for a meeting and a chat?"
Lin Yi glanced in that direction indifferently: "I'm a little dizzy. I'll rest for half an hour before coming down for the meeting."
Everyone remembers that when he was fighting outside, he was hit with a stick, so it's normal for him to feel dizzy.
So they all nodded and agreed to rest for half an hour.
Lin Yi then went upstairs to her room to rest.
Jian Zhizhen walked over to Xu Qiuyuan and glanced at Grandma Li next to her: "Sister Qiuyuan, we can't take Grandma Li home tonight, so let's clean up the storage room and let her go to sleep first. Don't let her wait for us here."
Xu Qiuyuan thought about it and realized it made sense. After all, they weren't from different times and spaces, so it wasn't good to let her know too much.
So the two of them went together to tidy up Grandma Li's storage room.
...
Lin Yi returned to his room, took out paper and pen from his desk, and drew some horizontal and vertical symbols: 匚乚冂丅...
After finishing writing, he turned around and lay down on the bed, clasped his hands together in front of his chest, and closed his eyes.
She fell asleep in no time.
Half an hour later, Lin Yi woke up naturally.
He was about to sit up when a sharp pain shot through the back of his head.
He frowned and subconsciously raised his hand to touch the back of his head, only to find that his arm was also very sore.
"What have you been up to now, you brat? It hurts so much!"
Lin Yi cursed under his breath, got off the bed, and slowly swung his arm to see how badly he was injured.
Suddenly, he noticed the note on the table.
He walked over, picked it up, glanced at it, and recognized the symbols.
This is the pigpen password; he has a special set of keys.
Using his own key, he translated two sentences:
1. Go downstairs for a meeting.
2. Who is Jian Chun?
Lin Yi stared at the two sentences with a complete bewilderment.
How would I know who Jian Chun is?
He muttered something to himself, threw the note away, and went downstairs to attend a meeting.
...
Downstairs living room.
Lin Yi went downstairs and sat on the sofa, his gaze sweeping naturally over everyone: "Everyone's here, shall we have a meeting to discuss tonight's events?"
He has recovered completely.
In fact, viewers, separated by the live broadcast camera, didn't have a deep understanding of Lin Yi's changes in the first few minutes.
The audience felt that he was just a good-tempered person who got angry and naturally lost his temper.
Jian Zhizhen was right beside him, but what she felt was that Lin Yi was completely different from the person who had stood up to save her before.
Fortunately, she has calmed down now.
Even if she had a lot of doubts in her mind, she wouldn't say them in front of so many guests.
Xu Qiuyuan moved forward and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault for bringing outsiders back without consulting everyone, causing so much trouble for everyone."
Xie Anxia glared at her: "What's the use of saying sorry? We're all important people here. What if someone comes and gets into a fight later and scratches your face?"
Zhai Qinghe glanced at it, then quickly lowered her head, a faint smile playing on her lips.
I was worried that someone would notice she didn't go out to help and would stand up and criticize her.
But Xu Qiuyuan took the initiative to step forward and admit her mistake, instantly drawing all the attention away from her, and no one noticed her anymore.
She lowered her head even further, trying to avoid attracting attention.
But her roommate, Li Nanyan, had nowhere to vent his anger.
He originally planned to go out and save Jian Zhizhen when she cried for help, but he didn't get a chance to do so at all.
So he insisted on standing up and saying a few words to vent his anger.
He crossed his arms, leaned back on the sofa, and arrogantly accused Xu Qiuyuan: "Xie Anxia is right. Bringing outsiders back so casually, have you considered the team's interests? How selfish!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Ze next to him laughed.
"Aren't you protecting yourself quite well? Harming anyone else's interests won't harm yours."
Li Ze already disliked him because of the fact that he secretly competed with others while working part-time.
After what happened tonight, I dislike him even more.
Even Zhou Sui, that weak and unassuming writer, would carry a stool out and beat people up.
Li Nanyan, on the other hand, just cowered like a turtle, wasting his tall stature of 1.85 meters.
Seeing that the two male guests were about to start arguing, Lin Yi impatiently interrupted them: "Since there's nothing wrong, don't blame each other."
He no longer had the energy to listen to such noisy arguments.
But Li Nanyan completely ignored Lin Yi's words and continued to argue with Li Ze: "Are you so protective of this mistress? Do you like him?"
The moment those words were spoken, the atmosphere in the room froze.
Many guests on variety shows these days have a dark past.
But it's rare to see someone humiliated like this to their face; Li Nanyan is one of the few.
However, since the audience already knows that Xu Qiuyuan is not a mistress, his words are very infuriating:
[I'm so angry! I want to jump into the screen and beat Li Nanyan up!]
