Chapter 1848: The Hidden Crisis

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The sound of crying woke up Qiao Xin, who was sound asleep.

When she woke up and saw Lin Yis face covered in tears, her heart jumped to her throat, thinking that something bad had happened.

However, when she turned around, she realized that Li Chuhan had already opened her eyes. She was looking straight at Lin Yi, her eyes filled with love. Sister Li, youre awake!

Unlike Lin Yis deep pain, Qiao Xins cries were earth-shattering.

Forget the room, the entire floor could hear her cry.

Li Chuhan turned her head with difficulty and looked at Qiao Xin, whom she had single-handedly raised. Her eyes were filled with relief and joy.

She was too weak to speak, but her eyes hid nothing.

Seeing Lin Yi and Qiao Xin again, she was filled with grat.i.tude.

Alright, stop crying. Both of you need to calm down. This isnt the time for extreme emotions, Lin Yi comforted.

Even so, none of them could stop their tears.

They were so happy that they felt no joy in the world could compare to this moment.

Help ma.s.sage Sister Li. She hasnt moved for days, and her body must be stiff.

Okay.

The two of them started working together to ma.s.sage Li Chuhans muscles and joints.

Li Chuhan tried to resist, but her body was too weak. Moreover, Lin Yis firm att.i.tude left her with no choice but to let them continue.

So, the two of them tirelessly ma.s.saged Li Chuhans body until dawn.

Around seven in the morning, when Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che arrived with breakfast at the emergency room.

They were pleasantly surprised to see Li Chuhan not only awake but also able to make simple movements.

Though the three didnt have much interaction, Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che knew how important Li Chuhan was to Lin Yi.

If something happened to this woman, it would be a huge blow to Lin Yi.

Hows the situation now? When will she fully recover? Ning Che asked with concern.

Shes still a little weak. Itll take at least a week for her to go back to normal, Lin Yi said with relief.

There was nothing wrong with Li Chuhan, and she had already had her stomach pumped.

She could not move much now because her body was too weak.

She had to nourish herself over the next few days and take special supplements.

He could always ask Lu Beichen for these things.

He was such a big shot. The amount of supplements he kept at home were going to pile up like a mountain. It would be a waste not to take them.

As long as youre okay.

Lin Yi took the millet porridge, mashed the egg into the bowl, and fed it to Li Chuhan, spoonful by spoonful.

The more she ate, the faster shed recover, but it was important to take it slow and not overdo it.

Let Xinxin take care of it. You go chat with them, you dont need to worry about me, Li Chuhan said weakly.

Its okay.

Im fine now, dont worry about me. Li Chuhan grabbed Lin Yis hand, her eyes gentle.

At this moment, Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che finally understood why Li Chuhan held such an important position in Lin Yis heart.

Because she had showed Lin Yi unprecedented gentleness.

Brother Lin, let me do it. Youre not as attentive as me. Qiao Xin took the bowl with a smile. Lin Yi didnt resist anymore and walked up to Ning Che and Qiu Yuluo.

How did you deal with Zhao Mo and the others? Ning Che asked.

I went over and beat them up, then kicked them out of the hospital.

Beat them up? Ning Che thought for a moment and said in surprise, Dont tell me you beat up Zhao He and the others?

Of course. Ive already broken Zhao Mo and the others legs. Theres no point in bullying them anymore. In addition, Zhao He tried acting cool with me. After slapping them a few times, they all became obedient.

I dont respect anyone as much as you now. You even dared to hit Zhao He.

Anyway, Im basically a dead man now. Even if they try, they wont find out who did it.

I really admire the person who came up with this plan. Youre practically an outlaw now, able to do whatever you want, Ning Che said.

Team Leader Qiu has been single for so long, so she must be incredibly lonely. You could take advantage of her while shes asleep. Even if she reports it, they wont trace it back to you.

Be serious. Dont drag me into your nonsense, Qiu Yuluo said, rolling her eyes.

Im just looking out for you. Constantly using your middle finger must be rough on your nail clippers.

Lin Yi and Qiao Xin both turned their gazes to Qiu Yuluo.

Its not just her middle finger. It looks like her index finger doesnt have nails either Qiao Xin said tentatively.

Qiu Yuluo,

Sister Qiu, if you cant do it, just buy an electric one. Society is quite open now. Otherwise, itll be unhygienic.

Look, a professional doctor has already spoken. You have to listen to the doctor, Ning Che said.

Scram, scram, scram. Do you think Im like you?

Because Li Chuhan had regained consciousness, the atmosphere in the room became lively again.

By the way, how did Elder Lu deal with Team 4? Lin Yi asked.

Theres no news yet, but from the looks of it, Team 4 probably wont be kept around. Even if some members arent involved, they wont be given important roles anymore. From now on, you might as well forget about Team 4. Theyre about to become history.

Whats the reaction of the family members of Team 4? Lin Yi asked.

We havent seen much reaction yet because the specific policies and measures havent been decided. They dont dare to do anything for now, Ning Che replied.

But 1 estimate it wont be long before those twenty-something families start reacting. They probably wont act individually but will instead certainly band together at some point.

Can an arm wrestle with a thigh?

This was something that Lin Yi was very concerned about because Lu Beichens strength had already exceeded his imagination. The outcome of this dispute was uncertain.

Of course not. In Huaxia, no one can shake Elder Lus position. However, but if things go wrong, it could easily force him into semi-retirement.

Ning Che thought for a few seconds and said,

There is a balance between power and influence. The higher-ups have to weigh the pros and cons before they can make the most correct decision.

Lin Yi rolled his eyes, feeling a little upset.

Given the current situation, its clear that Lu Beichen has long had issues with the Team 4 but hadnt acted on them until now.

After all, Team 4 was still fulfilling their duties.

Generally, there was nothing wrong with it.

However, the w.a.n.g family took action against Lin Yi, and Chen Guanjie secretly shot at him.

Due to this reason, Lu Beichen did not want to hold it in any longer and decided to take action at this moment.

If this matter had been delayed until his retirement, he could have resolved the issues with Team 4, leaving a clean slate for his successor in the Central Guard Brigade.

But now, with the matter being brought forward, the impact and changes would be greater.

After all, a single chopstick is easily broken, but a bundle of chopsticks is much harder to break.

This would be a significant struggle.

It was hard to say who would have the last laugh.

Even if he was Lu Beichen!
