Chapter 2542: Brother Dafeng’s trouble
Chen Zhao didn’t know what to say-Ziyu’s theory was way too strong, but she really was starting to panic. Ziyu’s words were a mess, but they weren’t crude, were they? “Should I … Make a phone call?” she asked weakly.
“Yes, yes, hurry up and call.” Ziyu threw the milk box into the bin accurately, then rubbed her chest, a little depressed.”Why doesn’t my milk grow bigger after drinking so much milk?”
Chen Xi’s face reddened.”Ziyu sis, what are you talking about …”
“Hey, Xi, you need milk too-Lin Yi bro likes big-bobbed girls, after all.” “Look at Shu-Jie beside him,” Ziyu said. “How big are her breasts?”“Ah?” Chen Xi paused, looking down at her chest. Then, for some reason, she picked up a carton of milk, looked at it, and put it down. Just as Ziyu was about to nag her again, Chen Xi picked up the papaya yogurt.
“I didn’t expect that, little Xi. You’ve amazed the world with a single brilliant feat, and you’ve suddenly opened your aperture?” Ziyu said, surprised.
“No… I like yogurt more …” Chen Xi’s face was hot, and she didn’t dare to admit it.
“Oh, then you can have that strawberry yogurt.” Ziyu pointed at the strawberry yogurt drink.
“Uh … I …” Chen Xi’s face was even redder.
“Haha, I’m not going to tease you anymore, hurry up and call Lin Yi bro!” Ziyu said.
“Oh …” Chen Xi let out a breath of relief. He took out his phone and dialed Lin Yi’s number.Lin Yi was boiling medicine for Xinyan in the kitchen when his phone rang. He picked it up without even looking at it. “Hello, how are you?”
“Big brother Lin, I … I’m Lil Xi …” Chen Xi was a little nervous. After all, she didn’t have pure intentions.
“Oh, Xi. Haha, I’ve been busy these days, so I didn’t have time to pay attention to you and Ziyu’s studies. Can you adapt to the high school curriculum?” Lin Yi asked. He’d never been to middle school, but he’d heard from Mengyao that the curriculum was different from high school. High school was much more difficult, and some students wouldn’t be able to get used to it.
“Yes, yes, Ziyu sis and I are both fine.” Chen Xi didn’t know what to say to Lin Yi, but Lin Yi took the initiative to talk about studying. Chen Xi was very happy and followed Lin Yi’s lead,”I got first place in my grade this time, and Ziyu-Jie was amazing too, she got fifth place!”
“Oh? It’s that powerful?” Lin Yi was a bit surprised-Chen Xi getting first place wasn’t that big of a deal, to be honest. After all, she was a good student to begin with, but Ziyu getting fifth was a bit of a shock.”You didn’t copy it, did you?”
“Ah?” Chen Xi was stunned and stammered after a while,””I … I’m first. Who … Who are you copying from?”
“No, I’m not talking about you, I’m talking about Ziyu …” Lin Yi said.
“Lin Yi bro, am I that weak? Can’t I just study?” Ziyu had been eavesdropping the whole time, and she wasn’t happy to hear that Lin Yi was doubting her grades.”Why don’t you trust me?”
“Uh … I’m just saying.” “How about this, I’ll treat you guys to a meal when I’m free to reward you guys. Your grades are good, keep it up.” Lin Yi smiled bitterly.
“En …” Chen Xi heard that Lin Yi was coming and was very happy,””Then, big brother Lin, I’ll hang up first. You can go back to your work …”
“Alright, goodbye.” Lin Yi hung up.
Chen Zhao’s face was red as he held the phone. He heaved a sigh of relief. He was so nervous!
“Xi, what’s wrong with you? Why didn’t you say more? He hung up just like that? Really!” Ziyu said, pissed.
“Ah? Then what’s there to say? aren’t we done?” Chen Xi asked carefully.
“What’s there to say, just say whatever you want. You really don’t know how to treasure your chances …” Ziyu said helplessly.
“Then … Then I’ll call back?” Chen Xi didn’t know what to do.
“Fight again? What did he say?” Ziyu was amused.
“I don’t know …” Chen Xi didn’t know what to say.
“Forget it. Next time, you’ll learn from me. If I don’t help you, you’ll cry your whole life.” Ziyu said.
“Okay, okay. Thank you, Ziyu sis.” Chen Xi nodded seriously and said gratefully.
Ziyu stood up,””I’m going to take a shower and sleep …”
Lin Yi wasn’t feeling very calm after hanging up-Ziyu’s voice made him feel like there was a rock pressing down on his heart, reminding him of the pangolin …
Picking up his phone, Lin Yi dialed Dafeng bro’s number. He didn’t know how things were going on Dafeng bro’s side, did he completely control red conch’s power in the country? Could he find out the stronghold of the red conch in foreign countries? could he find information about the pangolin?
“Mr. Lin …” The phone rang four or five times before it was connected. Brother Dafeng’s respectful voice was heard.
“Dafeng, how’s the situation? You’ve become the great master, right?” Lin Yi asked faintly.
“Thanks to Mr. Lin, I’ve become the big boss of the red conch country’s stronghold …” Brother Dafeng paused for a moment before he smiled bitterly.”However, there’s a problem …”
“Oh? What do you mean by that?” “I’ve already laid out the path for you, you still can’t handle it?”Lin Yi asked.
“Mr. Lin, I can’t do anything about it. The headquarters might not trust me to monopolize the power. Although they didn’t promote the second and third-in-charge, they parachuted a military advisor from the headquarters. He said he was a military advisor, but he had the same power as me. I had to discuss everything with him. Moreover, he came from the headquarters, so his authority was higher than mine …” Brother Dafeng said helplessly. “He’s the one making most of the decisions in red conches. I can’t even interfere …”
“Oh? Is it like this?” Lin Yi frowned. It seemed that he thought things were a little too simple back then. He thought that after getting rid of the leaders in red conches, Dafeng bro would be able to take over the position and have all the power, but he didn’t expect the headquarters to send an airborne soldier.
However, after thinking about it carefully, there was nothing wrong with it. In the past, the red conch stronghold was controlled by three leaders together. Now, only brother Dafeng was left. Whether it was out of trust or to balance brother Dafeng’s power, it was normal for the headquarters to send another person.
“Yes …” Brother Dafeng smiled bitterly.”I also want to complete Mr. Lin’s task as soon as possible, but I’m helpless. No matter what I do, that military counselor is watching me …”
