Chapter 176 Gathering

Lin Yuan was a little conflicted.

Logically speaking, he shouldn't have provoked Zhang Yan.

But he just couldn't help his selfishness. He admitted this.

Although the tutor and Dean Li are already considered big shots to ordinary people.

However, things like what happened to the group this time are still very small in the face of huge capital interests.

The most that Dean Li could do was to help Lin Yuan find a way to apologize, and the tutor could only support Lin Yuan and guarantee him a place in Zijin Aviation School.

Such big guys actually don't have very broad capabilities, so Lin Yuan has been thinking: If he wants to do something in the future, what route should he take?

The specific route has not yet been determined, but the need for assistance is a foregone conclusion. And Zhang Yan is the kind of person who can provide him with great assistance.

Therefore, Lin Yuan had complicated feelings towards her.

On the one hand, he really treated her as a little sister, and on the other hand, he hoped to get some help from this little sister.

This is a kind of true feeling mixed with utilitarianism.

Lin Yuan always felt guilty towards her.

It was precisely because of this that he was in a hurry to take Zhang Yan back to see Xia Ye.

This was to confirm the relationship between him and Zhang Yan. He wanted to use this action to tell Zhang Yan very clearly that he had no intention of playing ambiguous games with her and that he really treated her as a sister.

So as to avoid giving the other party any wrong impression and causing trouble in the future.

So, that day, Lin Yuan took Zhang Yan back home.

Xia Ye took a special leave from the tutoring class and took Song Xiaoxiao to the supermarket to buy vegetables. After spending half a day preparing a large table of dishes.

The dining table in this rental house is rarely filled with plates.

Xia Ye's starting point was simple - after Lin Yuan came in, in her opinion, Xiao Zhang Jingguan was very helpful.

The other party helped a lot not only in Lin Yuan's matter, but also in Song Xiaoxiao's matter.

Therefore, Xia Ye was simply repaying a favor. For this reason, she even learned several new recipes and bought Australian lobsters and hairy crabs.

Song Xiaoxiao also supported Xia Ye's actions. Although Lin Yuan had told her in advance that he regarded Zhang Yan as his own sister, Song Xiaoxiao obviously didn't believe it. But Lin Yuan couldn't tell her his true thoughts, so he could only let Song Xiaoxiao make free associations.

In Song Xiaoxiao's opinion, Lin Yuan was letting Zhang Yan and Xia Ye get to know each other in advance to pave the way for the showdown in the future.

Lin Yuan felt a little overwhelmed when he thought about it, but there was nothing he could do.

So, for the first time, the dining table in the small rental house was full of people - Lin Yuan, Xia Ye, Zhang Yan, and Song Xiaoxiao, each person sitting on one side. A mahjong table, everyone!

"Xiao Zhang Jingguan, thank you for your help before." Xia Ye raised the cup with the drink in it somewhat awkwardly, and it was obvious that he was not good at this.

"Sister-in-law, you are too polite. It's all my duty."

Faced with the sudden title of "sister-in-law", Xia Ye was a little confused.

Zhang Yan quickly explained, "My master and Lin Yuan's mentor all know each other. This time we just happened to need Lin Yuan's help, so I just called him brother. So of course I have to call you sister-in-law."

Xia Ye finally realized. "So there is this relationship. No wonder Xiao Zhang Jingguan is so helpful."

Song Xiaoxiao came to assist at the right time, "Xiao Zhang Jingguan, thank you too, we will be a family from now on."

These words sounded a little strange to Xia Ye, but Lin Yuan understood Song Xiaoxiao's deep meaning.

"Alas!" He could only sigh in his heart. This was Song Xiaoxiao's worldview, and there was no way she could believe that he really didn't have any random thoughts.

Forget it, the scene is quiet, as long as everything is fine.

So the scene when the four of them got together for the first time was surprisingly harmonious, and everyone chose to believe what they thought was the truth.

Song Xiaoxiao's understanding is needless to say. Xia Ye's gratitude towards Zhang Yan became even more grateful after hearing Song Xiaoxiao's words.

Lin Yuan hoped not to give any of the three of them any misconceptions. He really wanted to sort out the relationship between them. This gathering was for this purpose.

As for Zhang Yan, she couldn't explain her thoughts. This meal made her understand Lin Yuan's thoughts. But she always felt guilty and didn't dare to face her inner feelings.

"Sister-in-law, I'm going on a business trip to Songhu with my brother. We need his help with some work, so it will probably take a long time. But we will definitely be back before the New Year."

Xia Ye agreed readily, "I've been busy lately. I have to practice dancing every day, and I don't have much time before the New Year. You can take him with you."

The two women completed the temporary handover of Lin Yuan neatly and efficiently.

Dinner ended with laughter and joy. After dinner, Zhang Yan even tied an apron and went to the kitchen to help clean up.

It wasn't that Zhang Yan was being attentive on purpose, but she really enjoyed this happy atmosphere.

During the conversation, Zhang Yan also told Xia Yeming that he was currently studying at Zijin Aviation School, and Xia Ye did not think much about it.

After finishing the work, Lin Yuan and Zhang Yan went out together, but Xia Ye and Song Xiaoxiao stayed in this room.

"Xiaoxiao, you think Lin Yuan is going on this long trip because he is not being taken away for investigation?" Xia Ye used his imagination to care about Lin Yuan.

"How could that be possible? If we really want to take him away for investigation, there's no need to make it so complicated. Don't think too much about it."
-
On the other side, Lin Yuan and Zhang Yan were walking on their way back to school.

"Brother, the Good Group bullied you so much this time, don't you plan to retaliate?"

"I do want to. But if I really do that, your master will probably be the first one to make trouble for me."

Zhang Yan thought for a moment and said, "That's true. When I talked to him about OCR before, he didn't seem to care much. Lao Mo said that he has been busy with network work guidance recently."

Lin Yuan was happy, "Do you think your master can give you guidance?"

"Well, he is my master after all."

"I guess the OCR matter is just a piece of chicken ribs to your master now. But in order to help Lao Li, I still have to push this matter forward."

"To help Lao Li?"

"Dean Li. Your master was willing to cooperate with my mentor and Dean Li before, just for such a small matter. Now that your master has got your favor, he is expected to be promoted. But the people who have helped me seriously are still craning their necks in anticipation."

Zhang Yan felt a little embarrassed for a moment, because Director Wang's current success was due to the report he had obtained before leaving.

The report contained Lin Yuan's prediction on the trend of the good group. Lin Yuan was going to give it to Zhang Yan, but Zhang Yan didn't take it seriously and wrote it in the report.

That's why Lin Yuan was so conflicted: Old Li, who had helped him, didn't get any benefits, but Director Wang, who had nothing to do with him, took advantage.

"Brother, please stop talking about me."

"I'm not talking about you. I'm complaining about your master. How could he be so embarrassed? Didn't he ask you first?"

"He is my master after all, and he also gave me credit. He also took me into the task of guiding the group well."

"But the credit for leading the command became his."

"Oh, it doesn't matter. Master wants to be promoted before retirement. Lao Mo and I both know this. Just consider it as my filial piety to him... I just failed my senior brother's kindness to me..."

"It's good that you know. I hope your master won't be so greedy and can cooperate with the OCR this time and eat less."

"Are you worried that my master will steal the credit?" Zhang Yan pondered for a moment, "I don't think that's the case."

"To be precise, your master took advantage of me this time, and he must be aware of this. Logically, he should provide free assistance in the OCR matter, because he has already received the due compensation. But I heard from Lao Li that your master is not cooperating."

Zhang Yan thought about it carefully, "If my master really wants to eat in an ugly way, then I have a way. Don't worry, no one can take away your credit."

"My contribution doesn't matter, but Old Li is counting on this opportunity to get a permanent job before retirement. Oh, I hope your master won't burn bridges after crossing them."

"Brother, you are doing this for your master. Don't worry, I will make sure you get what you want."
