57: Chapter 57 Don't Lock the Door at Night
When Zhou Zhengyi's uncle saw the person arrive, he immediately changed his demeanor and greeted him respectfully.
"Young Master Zhang, why did you come here in person?"
Working on a Haoyu Group property, it was impossible for him not to recognize Zhang Hanyu.
That was the future successor of the group.
A single word from him could determine his life or death in this company.
Zhang Hanyu looked puzzled.
"Didn't you send a message to the security department saying someone was causing trouble here?"
"Where is the person causing trouble?"
Zhang Hanyu looked around, but didn't find any signs of fighting or conflict.
At this moment, Lin Yi silently raised his hand and walked up to Zhang Hanyu with a speechless expression.
"The person he said was causing trouble is me..."
"Ah? Young Master Lin? What do you mean by this?"
The confusion on Zhang Hanyu's face deepened.
Lin Yi causing trouble?
He was in his own home, how could he cause trouble?
Even if he burned the house down, it would be none of their business!
The surrounding classmates were all stunned.
When Zhang Hanyu walked in, seeing the attitude Zhou Zhengyi's uncle had toward him, everyone knew this person was of extraordinary status.
Yet Zhang Hanyu was actually being polite, even slightly humble, when speaking to Lin Yi.
Could it be that Lin Yi's status was even more powerful than his?
Su Ming, who was standing to the side, was also dumbfounded.
She naturally recognized Zhang Hanyu.
Their fathers were both members of the Nanjing Chamber of Commerce, so they inevitably attended some cocktail parties and banquets together.
Su Ming and Zhang Hanyu had also met a few times.
However, her Su Family's business could not compare to Haoyu Group at all.
Haoyu Group was a real estate group that ranked in the top five in Nanling City.
As the prince of Haoyu Group, although Zhang Hanyu was down-to-earth, he also had his own pride.
It was impossible for him to be so humble to an ordinary person.
Could it be... that she had really misjudged him?
Could Lin Yi's identity really be extraordinary?
In that case... what Lin Yi said was very likely true!
Su Ming finally realized that she might have truly misunderstood Lin Yi.
And Lin Yi had remained calm throughout, facing everyone's doubts without the slightest panic.
He didn't even have the desire to explain.
Just a few understated words.
"Believe it if you want, if not, forget it."
This kind of bearing was not something an ordinary person could have!
Su Ming: Favorability + 10 points
Su Ming: Favorability + 10 points
Su Ming: Favorability + 10 points
Current Favorability: 30 points.
Hearing the system prompt, Lin Yi looked in Su Ming's direction.
Su Ming was... too fickle...
He thought the school beauty would have that kind of cold, aloof personality, untouched by the mortal world.
He didn't expect her inner emotional activity to be so rich.
"Young Master Lin?"
Seeing Lin Yi in a daze, Zhang Hanyu tentatively called out.
Lin Yi finally snapped back to reality.
Looking at Zhang Hanyu, who still had a puzzled expression in front of him, Lin Yi kept it short and gave a brief explanation.
"I said this is my home."
"My classmate didn't believe me, thought I was in the way, and called his uncle to kick me out..."
"Since Young Master Zhang is here, please help me deal with this."
Hearing Lin Yi's accusation, Zhou Zhengyi's uncle hurriedly tried to make amends.
"Young Master Zhang, just now... I didn't know..."
Before he could finish, Zhang Hanyu slapped him across the face.
"Slap!"
A crisp slap echoed throughout the living room.
Zhou Zhengyi's uncle stood there, stunned, clutching his face.
Zhou Zhengyi was stunned.
Li Tong, Su Ming, and Yin Na were all stunned.
Even a fool could see that Young Master Zhang's action was equivalent to admitting the truth of what Lin Yi had just said.
This luxurious villa was really Lin Yi's!
Zhang Hanyu looked at Zhou Zhengyi's uncle with a cold face and a frigid tone.
"I want to know who gave you the right to rent out a homeowner's house privately?"
"Young Master Lin doesn't mind and agreed to continue this lease, but that doesn't mean I don't mind!"
"And you actually wanted to kick the homeowner out?"
"Who gave you the audacity?"
"Is this how you usually work?"
"As a property manager, a position the size of a sesame seed, do you really think you're a tyrant who can run rampant in the neighborhood?"
"Someone like you is really smearing the reputation of our Haoyu Group!"
"Starting tomorrow, you don't need to come to work."
"At the same time, I will issue a notice to other real estate companies in Nanling City to never hire you."
"No, don't wait until tomorrow, pack your things and get out now!"
Zhang Hanyu was truly furious.
If Lin Yi were to have any negative opinion of him because of this, it would truly be a case of losing more than he gained.
Under these circumstances, he had no choice but to use such thunderous measures to appease Lin Yi's dissatisfaction.
After speaking, Zhang Hanyu subconsciously looked at Lin Yi, wanting to see Lin Yi's reaction.
Lin Yi didn't speak, but nodded, which served as his approval of the outcome.
Only then did Zhang Hanyu breathe a sigh of relief.
Zhou Zhengyi's uncle was also dumbfounded.
He didn't expect his job to be gone just like that!
He had struggled for so many years to finally reach the position of manager.
And it was gone just like that!
It was all because of his good-for-nothing nephew!
The more Zhou Zhengyi's uncle thought about it, the angrier he got, and he slapped Zhou Zhengyi across the face.
Zhou Zhengyi was stunned by the slap.
From childhood to now, this was the first time his uncle had hit him.
"Uncle..."
"Don't call me Uncle! I don't have a nephew like you!"
Seeing his uncle angrily about to leave, Zhou Zhengyi immediately chased after him.
"Uncle, listen to my explanation..."
"Uncle!"
...
The annoying flies were finally gone, and Lin Yi felt that the whole house was much quieter.
This was how it should be; they came here to have a birthday party in the first place.
He wasn't the main character, so why was everyone focusing on him?
"Alright, everyone, don't forget that we are here today to celebrate Li Tong's birthday."
"How about this, there is some fine wine in the cellar downstairs collected by the big star Yang Muyi. Do you want to try some?"
"If you drink too much, you can stay at my place tonight; I have plenty of guest rooms anyway."
After Lin Yi's reminder, everyone finally remembered the purpose of coming here today.
"A female celebrity's wine! Then we must try it!"
"Brother Lin Yi, but my alcohol tolerance is not good, I get drunk after one glass, what should I do..."
"Move aside, last time five boys couldn't outdrink you! And now you're acting all innocent!"
"Hate you, why expose me? I just wanted to get drunk in front of Brother Lin Yi!"
"Be careful, Tongtong will get jealous!"
...
Seeing this, Zhang Hanyu and Yin Na also tactfully withdrew.
Sun Xiaoxiao originally wanted to sneak away as well.
But thinking that this big villa belonged to Lin Yi, she couldn't help but have a glimmer of fantasy, wondering if something could happen between her and Lin Yi.
Seeing that everyone had gone to the wine cellar downstairs, Li Tong slowly walked to Lin Yi's side.
"I knew you wouldn't lie to me."
"Don't lock the door tonight, I might have a little surprise for you."
After saying this, Li Tong winked at Lin Yi with seductive eyes.
Even a dense guy could understand the meaning behind these words.
