Chapter 284: Handshake, Inconvenient

Not long after hanging up the phone, Qi Yao came out from inside.

Lin Feng got out of the car and opened the car door for Qi Yao.

"How come you got off work so early today?"

After getting back into the car, Lin Feng asked.

Qi Yao softly said, "You weren't waiting outside, were you?"

Lin Feng gave a hehe laugh and started the car.

Snowflakes began to drift down from the sky again.

"There are only a few days left until New Year; when do you get vacation?"

Lin Feng turned his head and glanced at Qi Yao, who was looking at the snow outside the window, and asked.

Qi Yao replied, "From the 9th to the 15th."

Lin Feng nodded, "This time your vacation is not bad. But I estimate you won't be able to rest until the 15th before being called back to work."

Qi Yao remained silent.

Lin Feng then said, "After finishing this year, the contract should expire around New Year next year, right?"

"Mm!" Qi Yao nodded.

Qi Yao likes watching the snow, so Lin Feng slowed down and drove a big loop around the city.

It was only when it reached seven in the evening that they returned home.

The seven buildings of Licheng Shiji grew gloomy and dark again.

The companies renting the first three floors of this building have gone on holiday.

In fact, it's not just Building Seven; the entire Beautiful City Century Community has far fewer lit rooms at night.

After getting out of the underground parking lot, Lin Feng swept Qi Yao up into a horizontal hold.

"What are you doing?"

Qi Yao naturally wrapped her arms around Lin Feng's neck, widened her eyes, and asked.

"I just wanted to hug you upstairs! And by the way, see if you've lost weight."

"So, have I lost weight?"

"No, you haven't lost weight; you seem to have gained a few jin."

"I'm not making you steak anymore."

Although Qi Yao said no, after going upstairs, taking a shower, and changing into a floral long dress, she still put on an apron and went to the kitchen to make steak.

At eight in the evening, Lin Feng sat at the dining table.

A steak was placed in front of him.

He picked up the knife and fork, just about to start eating, when Qi Yao said, "Don't drop the fork."

"Okay!"

Lin Feng smiled and nodded.

This time he didn't drop the fork.

"But..."

"Clang~"

The kitchen knife fell to the floor.

Lin Feng glanced at the knife on the floor and said, "I said it wasn't intentional; do you believe me?"

Qi Yao looked helpless.

Lin Feng picked up the knife under the table.

But he soon popped back out.

Qi Yao softly said, "I've told you not to drop things."

Lin Feng felt that Qi Yao's house‑warding magic should be stronger now.

Because she's not alone; there's also an eldest aunt.

Under the eldest aunt's magic, even Lin Feng, this great demon king, behaved himself for the night.

After having breakfast the next morning, Lin Feng saw Qi Yao off to work.

Then he drove to the villa where Guo Yanru lives.

Yesterday, Guo Yanqiu and Guo Yanwen, brother and sister, accompanied their mother Qin Li in buying a lot of New Year goods, filling the trunk of the Knight to the brim.

The Knight's interior is spacious, but the rear seats only have two spots.

Qin Li and the nanny Tian Cui got into the sedan driven by the female bodyguard.

This time returning home, Guo Yanru also brought back two female bodyguards.

Tian Cui also went along.

"Brother‑in‑law, how much does this car cost? It's probably a gas guzzler, right?"

After the car left the villa, Guo Yanwen curiously asked.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "18 million, and it costs about five yuan per kilometer."

Guo Yanwen exclaimed, "Then going from here to the airport and back would burn several hundred yuan worth of fuel?"

"Mm!"

Lin Feng nodded.

"The car is so expensive and fuel‑thirsty; I was thinking I could buy one to drive someday… Oh well, never mind."

Guo Yanwen shook her head repeatedly.

Lin Feng laughed and said, "What never mind? If you want to drive a car like this, you gotta study hard, earn money, and then take it out for a road trip—how awesome is that?"

Guo Yanwen nodded repeatedly.

Guo Yanqiu wasn't very interested in such a big car, and started talking about what would happen after going home.

Last night, she and her mother made a dozen or so calls in one go.

"Brother-in-law, later those relatives and friends will definitely tell my mom and my sister to have them help arrange jobs."

Guo Yanqiu finished speaking and then waited for Lin Feng's answer.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Your sister will take care of this, so don't worry about it."

Guo Yanru said, "Azure Peak Industry has many job positions suitable for them; let's arrange for them to go work there."

Guo Yanqiu said, "I'm afraid they'll think they're relying on connections and refuse to follow management, or they'll complain the work is tiring and the pay low and quit, then go back and badmouth things."

Actually, where can't you find a job these days?

It's not that they want to make money by relying on your sister and brother-in-law's connections; ordinary jobs and pay definitely won't meet their psychological expectations."

Guo Yanru laughed and said, "Old Two, you're overthinking it; not all relatives and friends are like that—some of them actually have talent."

Some of them, if they can stay and work hard, will have many paths ahead.

Just Azure Peak Industry alone has many outsourced orders, and when the tech park is built, there will also be some parts for external processing.

If they do well, they can accumulate some capital over these two years and later get the chance to become bosses.

If they're lazy and averse to work, they're like mud that can't support a wall.

Some will get it right, some will just busy themselves for nothing; once there's a comparison, they'll have no reason to complain."

Lin Feng really liked hearing these everyday family matters.

Suddenly he felt like sitting down with Guo Yanru's aunties to play mahjong.

Those ordinary lives felt more real to him.

Soon they arrived at the airport.

After Guo Yanru and the others cleared security, Lin Feng left.

While the car was still on the road, he saw his own plane take off from the airport and soon disappear into the horizon.

Driving back home, it was already eleven in the morning.

Yang Yu's assistant Wei Feng called Lin Feng about the transfer of the nineteen percent stake in Great Flag Media.

The documents have been drafted; all that's needed is for Lin Feng to sign.

After hanging up, Lin Feng picked up his phone and called Liu Cangyun.

Liu Cangyun has been busy this whole time.

The renovation of the Sihe Courtyard—she's been overseeing it, eating and living there.

Besides that, she also has to supervise the villa construction out at Xishan.

She certainly isn't alone now; she has a team of nine subordinates.

Among them are an accountant, a lawyer, and a dedicated driver.

Right now Lin Feng hasn't given her much to handle.

But later, as time goes on, all sorts of miscellaneous tasks will increase.

At the entrance of a certain hotel.

This is also the place Yang Yu arranged to meet.

As soon as Lin Feng arrived, Liu Cangyun had already brought her team to wait.

After not seeing each other for a month, Lin Feng noticed Liu Cangyun's hair had grown longer and was tied into a ponytail.

She was wearing a blue winter dress.

Her legs were wrapped in black tight velvet pants, and her feet were in long leather boots.

No matter how you look, she looks like a one-year-old little girl.

Lin Feng glanced at Liu Cangyun's subordinates.

They were all men and women in their thirties, wondering what feelings these people had when Liu Cangyun usually ordered them to do things.

Yang Yu led a group of people out from the main gate.

"Mr. Lin, we meet again."

Yang Yu wore an enthusiastic expression.

Lin Feng stepped forward and extended his hand to Yang Yu.

Yang Yu said somewhat embarrassedly, "My hand was stung by a hornet yesterday, it's inconvenient, sorry! Please!"
