182: Chapter 182 Meeting the Parents

Listening to Lin Yi's promise, Zhang Zhengan was overwhelmed with excitement.

For the longest time, the thing that worried him most was Ning Yuxi's illness.

As long as he could cure Ning Yuxi's illness, he was willing to give up everything.

He wouldn't even hesitate to exchange his own life for it.

But reality was cruel.

Curing an illness wasn't something where his willingness to sacrifice something guaranteed success.

But now, Lin Yi's appearance had given him hope once again.

He hadn't expected this young and bold boss to actually possess such life-saving skills.

"Boss Lin, there are no words to thank you for such great kindness."

"From now on, I, Zhang Zhengan, am your loyal subordinate!"

"I will definitely work hard to repay your great kindness!"

"I can even work without a salary!"

"As long as I can help you, I will be completely satisfied!"

Originally, Zhang Zhengan had wanted to persuade Lin Yi today.

He had heard from Su Ming about Lin Yi's plan to start a new company.

He also knew that Lin Yi had already transferred Whale Live Streaming to a new boss named Li Tong.

Zhang Zhengan had intended to advise Lin Yi not to be so aggressive.

After all, Whale Live Streaming had only just started, and there was still a long way to go before becoming an industry leader.

Zhang Zhengan was a rather steady person.

He felt that at this moment, he absolutely could not leave Whale Live Streaming with Lin Yi.

Otherwise, it was very likely that all the efforts made in the early stages would go to waste.

Lin Yi smiled and shook his head.

"Old Zhang, let's keep things separate."

"Work is work, and medical treatment is medical treatment."

Lin Yi looked at Ning Yuxi, and a new idea suddenly popped into his mind.

In fact, Lin Yi also knew that the current situation at Whale Live Streaming could not do without Zhang Zhengan.

From the initial preparations to the software launch, and even some daily maintenance tasks, Zhang Zhengan had handled everything personally.

If Zhang Zhengan were to rashly leave Whale Live Streaming to go to the newly established company with him, Whale Live Streaming might come to a standstill.

Although Lin Yi wasn't counting on making money from Whale Live Streaming, he knew the thoughts in the minds of the employees at Whale Live Streaming.

Everyone was holding their breath, wanting to surpass Huyu Live, surpass Douya Live, and even surpass Douyin Live.

Lin Yi didn't want to disappoint everyone.

Now that Ning Yuxi had appeared, there seemed to be a win-win solution to this matter.

Zhang Zhengan had said that Ning Yuxi's level in the field of computer science was already above his own.

She was a complete genius girl.

This talent was even a cut above the genius school beauty of the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Meng Xueer.

"Old Zhang, how about this."

"I would like to invite Xiao Xi to join my new company."

"This way, you can also continue to stay at Whale Live Streaming and complete your unfinished ideal."

"I wonder what you think?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhengan subconsciously glanced at Ning Yuxi, wanting to see her opinion.

After listening, Ning Yuxi nodded repeatedly.

"Brother, I am willing!"

There was no genius who didn't hope to stand out.

They just needed a platform and an opportunity.

And Lin Yi was like the Bo Le who recognized her as a horse capable of traveling a thousand miles.

After chatting with the two for a while longer, Lin Yi and Zhang Zhengan went to handle the discharge procedures for Ning Yuxi.

The doctor was also very shocked after seeing that all of Ning Yuxi's indicators had returned to normal.

However, Ning Yuxi and Zhang Zhengan had promised Lin Yi that they would not tell anyone about Lin Yi curing Ning Yuxi's illness.

So, they had to make up an excuse.

They told the doctor that when Ning Yuxi woke up today, she felt completely refreshed.

Although the doctor didn't believe it, the facts were right in front of him, so he had nothing to say.

After leaving the hospital, Ning Yuxi took a comfortable, deep breath of the fresh air outside.

"I didn't expect that in my lifetime, I would still be able to walk out of the hospital!"

"I feel like I'm dreaming right now!"

"Brother, Brother Lin Yi, I won't wake up tomorrow and find that all this was just a dream, right!"

Zhang Zhengan patted Ning Yuxi's little head.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Didn't Boss Lin say that you will recover!"

"You can even go back to school."

"Haven't you always wanted to experience university life?"

Ning Yuxi nodded.

"That's great, I can finally go back to school!"

Actually, for a genius girl, whether she went to school or not didn't make much of a difference.

For her, the school couldn't teach her much of the knowledge anymore; she could only rely on self-study.

Ning Yuxi wanted to go to school simply because she wanted more opportunities to interact with her peers.

Since she was young, she had been hospitalized frequently due to her health.

She didn't have a single friend by her side.

She longed to be able to talk and laugh with her classmates.

She longed to have friends to accompany her to watch movies and go shopping.

Lin Yi patted Ning Yuxi on the shoulder.

"Then we'll see each other at school later, okay?"

Ning Yuxi nodded and thanked Lin Yi again along with Zhang Zhengan.

Lin Yi waved his hand, said goodbye to the two, got into his bugatti, and drove home with one press of the accelerator.

When he arrived home and pushed the door open, there was no one in the house again.

Lin Yi checked the time; it was already past five in the afternoon.

It was too late to cook now.

So, Lin Yi sent a message to ask Ye Shuangshuang and Li Tong where they wanted to eat tonight.

Before long, both of them replied.

They both told Lin Yi that they were a bit busy tonight and were afraid they wouldn't have time to eat with Lin Yi.

Lin Yi curled his lips.

He secretly regretted transferring all the companies in his hands.

It had caused these girls to be completely focused on work recently, and they didn't have any time to accompany him.

By comparison, Lin Yi seemed like an idle, unemployed drifter.

Lin Yi poured himself a glass of red wine and walked to the balcony.

While admiring the sunset glow, he sighed about his loneliness.

At this moment, Lin Yi saw a car drive into the villa area.

A beautiful and mature figure opened the car door and stepped out.

She was holding several bags of fresh ingredients in her hands.

That person was none other than Cheng Hong, who had previously sold the car to Lin Yi.

On weekdays, besides being busy with the car dealership, Cheng Hong also had to go to the bar she owned every night.

Lin Yi rarely saw Cheng Hong return home at this hour.

And it looked like she had just finished buying groceries and was planning to cook for herself.

"Hehe, I've given her so much business; it wouldn't be too much to mooch a meal off her, right!"

Lin Yi put down his wine glass and went back to the bedroom to change his clothes.

He even pretentiously sprayed some perfume.

He tidied up his hairstyle, then hummed a little tune and went out.

Arriving in front of Cheng Hong's villa, Lin Yi straightened his collar and gently knocked on the door.

"Who is it?"

Cheng Hong's pleasant voice came from inside.

Then, there was a sound of footsteps.

With a "click," the door opened.

Lin Yi revealed a sunny, brilliant smile and waved at Cheng Hong.

"Hi, Sister Hong!"

"Long time no see!"

"There's no food at my place today; I wonder if I can come over to your place to mooch..."

Before Lin Yi could finish his sentence, he saw two more people appear behind Cheng Hong.

These two people looked kind, and their facial features were somewhat similar to Cheng Hong's.

Upon seeing Lin Yi, the two immediately put on smiles.

"Please come in, please come in!"

"Cheng Hong, aren't you going to introduce us?"
