In the afternoon, Zhang Qimo was still in the director's office, dealing with the documents of the World King project.
Lin Yin received a text message. He greeted Qimo and got out of the elevator.
When he arrived at the gate of the Treasure Tripod Building, a black Bentley had been waiting for him on the opposite side of the road.

...
Half an hour later.
Green Cloud Hotel, on the 26th floor.
Under the lead of the old butler, Lin Yin walked into the large room.
Qi Hetu was sitting alone on a big chair, expressionless, with the dignity of a superior at any time.
Lin Yin pulled out a chair and sat down. He said faintly, "Aren't you confident that I will come and beg you? Why did you take the initiative to come to me? Can't you wait any longer?"

Qi Hetu looked calm and said, "It seems that you won't go back to the Qis no matter what."
"When I was eight years old, I already said that from now on, the Qi Family has nothing to do with me," Lin Yin said indifferently.
"If you don't want to go back to the Qi Family, I won't force you. Just like when you were eight years old, I didn't force you to stay." Qi Hetu said indifferently, "D divorce your mother is one of the few things in my life that I have done wrong and also the most painful and helpless thing in my life. But I will never admit my mistake."
"Heh." Lin Yin sneered. "Then what did you want to say by calling me here today?"

"I want you to come today because I want to tell you that I'm going back to the imperial capital," said Qi Hetu.
"I'm in the top villa area of Qingyun City, Snow Dragon Villa. I bought a villa and stored ten sports cars in the underground garage. Also, there is a billion dollars in this Swiss bank account." Qi Hetu said lightly, "Take it all. Even if you don't recognize me as your father, my son can't be humiliated and live a useless life for the rest of his life!"
"I don't need it," Lin Yin said faintly.
"You can take it as my pity or my guilt. I, Qi He Tu, have never taken back what I gave you." Qi Hetu said with great majesty.
"I won't interfere with your affairs anymore. I've bought the entire Green Cloud Hotel. Everything I give you is in the safe box of this conference hall. The password is your birthday." Qi Hetu said slowly, "When you need these things, you can take them yourself. If you are angry, you can smash them all and throw them away, or you can choose. In short, everything is up to you."
Lin Yin sneered and shook his head.
The style of Qi Hetu was still the same as he used to be. He was arrogant and overbearing, thinking that he could control everything of others.
"It's just that in your heart, you've underestimated me, Qi He Tu." Qi He Tu's face revealed a strong sense of confidence. "Do you think that I must rely on my son to gain a firm foothold in the Qi family in the imperial capital?"
"Humph."
Qi Hetu snorted coldly and changed the topic. "Let me tell you something. If you don't come back with me this time, I'll give you a message in three months. At that time, you can go back to see your grandfather. Don't go to the imperial capital without permission."
"If I don't give you any news in three months... Remember, don't tell anyone about your identity in this life, let alone step into the imperial capital and forget everything in the past, understand?"
Lin Yin asked, "Is that all?"
Qi He said, "You have to remember."
Lin Yin got up and left. Halfway through, he frowned slightly. He vaguely felt that there was something wrong with what Qi Hetu said today.
It seemed that the Qis in the imperial capital were more complicated than he had imagined...
Lin Yin looked back hesitantly.
Just in time to meet the eyes of Qi Hetu.
"Do you have anything else to do?" Qi Hetu asked as usual.
Lin Yin's eyes moved slightly and he did not speak. Then, he turned around and left the Green Cloud Hotel.
The meeting hall was silent. Qi Hetu looked at the door that Lin Yin had walked out of. After a long silence, he let out a long sigh.
"Old Master, you..." The old butler wanted to say something but stopped.
"I thought that the other few branches of our Qi family wanted to take the main road and take out the rules and regulations of our family. In the meeting of the elders, we seized the power of our family and naturally took the position of the head of the family. Therefore, I wanted to find Yin'er to go back and shut their mouths." Qi Hetu said slowly, "I didn't expect that they didn't obey the rules. They took advantage of the situation from outside and didn't care about the feelings of the same clan. They were ready to fight to the death... Take Yin'er back with an ordinary person, and they would only go into the tiger's den..."
"Master, you don't have to be too pessimistic about the situation in the imperial capital. We may have a chance of winning. Although the third master's forces have completely collapsed two days ago, there are still three or four hidden families that you can mobilize on the surface. The forces in the dark have also been preserved, and they are still able to fight," the old steward said.
"Oh, my third brother is dead now. If they want to eat the Qis in one bite, they have to step on my body... Mr. Li, you stay in Donghai Province and wait for my news."
...
After leaving the Green Cloud Hotel, Lin Yin went straight back to the Treasure Tripod Building and stopped thinking about the Qi Family.
In the evening.
Zhang Qimo and Lin Yin left the company, got out of the elevator, and came to the Baoding Building.
Wu Zheng had already parked the car by the road and waited.
"By the way, Lin Yin." Zhang Qimo looked hesitant. She wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yin asked.
"I have a classmate gathering tonight. Can you come with me?" Zhang Qimo asked.
"A gathering of classmates?"
Lin Yin frowned slightly. In the past two years, he had never been in contact with Qimo's circle of friends.
In the past, Qimo was not willing to introduce her friends to him.
He knew that Qimo had two close friends. He had met them several times, but they all scoffed at him and did not treat him well.
"Yes, I was invited to the gathering of our high school classmates again." Zhang Qimo said somewhat gloomily, "I didn't go to the previous classmate gathering. This time it was Xue'er's big mouth who spread the news everywhere. She also said that I was promoted to be the director of the group on social media. Now everyone secretly sent me an invitation, so I couldn't refuse."
"Why do you want me to accompany you?" Lin Yin was a little curious.
"Oh! There are a few flies in the circle of classmates. It's so annoying." Zhang Qimo said with some distress, "Go there. They can't bother me."
Lin Yin nodded.
"Then go ahead."
"Well, as I said, don't talk too much then." Zhang Qimo said.
"Yes, Director Zhang." Lin Yin smiled.
"Humph." Zhang Qimo rolled her eyes at Lin Yin.
The two of them got in the car together. Wu Zheng started the car and went straight to the prosperous downtown area.
Ten minutes later.
They drove to the famous food street in Qingyun City. The street was full of big restaurants, hot pot restaurants, all kinds of special snack shops, and various entertainment places. People were coming and going, and the street was full of people and vehicles. The whole street seemed to be ablaze with lights.
At the KTV of the Purple Gold Dynasty in the last year.
Wu Zheng parked the car in front of the door of the KTV.
Lin Yin and Zhang Qiqi got out of the car and glanced at each other.
This KTV looked very high-end, and its exterior decoration was quite luxurious. There was a spotlight flashing on the signboard, and at the door, there were two extraordinarily beautiful female receptionists.
"Wu Zheng, you can find a restaurant nearby to have some supper, massage, and wash your feet. I'll pay for it." Lin Yin said seriously, "When we come out, I'll call you."
Wu Zheng shook his head and said seriously, "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Lin, you can go. It's still my job now. I'll wait in the car."
Lin Yin nodded slightly. "Alright."
After greeting Wu Zheng, the two of them entered the KTV and went to a private room on the third floor.
In the private room No. 88.
As soon as the two of them came in, they were immediately met with waves of eyes.
"Qimo, I haven't seen you for a long time! I heard that you have recently been promoted to the design director of the Zhang Group. Congratulations!"
"That's right. Qimo won the jewelry design award when she was in college. She is an expert in this field!"
Several young and beautiful girls stood up and greeted him with smiles.
"By the way, Qimo, who is this person next to you?" A man in a dark purple suit asked, looking at Lin Yin with some hostility.
"He is..." Zhang Qimo was about to speak.
"He is Qimo's director assistant, Assistant Lin." A fashionable girl with a ponytail answered for Zhang Qimo with a smile.
Lin Yin smiled faintly and did not speak.
He knew a girl with a ponytail. She was Li Xue'er, Qimo's best friend.
"Oh? Hello, Assistant Lin." The man in the suit smiled and handed over a business card. "I'm Lyu Hui, the general manager of Xuyang Holding Company."
Lin Yin nodded slightly. "Hello."
"Qimo, you're really amazing. The company has given you an assistant!" A charming girl in a black dress said enviously.
"What's an assistant? You don't know that our Qimo also mentioned a BMW 5 series, and the company has a full-time driver," Li Xue'er said proudly as if she was showing off.
"Amazing! He's really young and promising!"
"Qimo, you've become a strong woman."
All the girls present showed envious expressions.
"Well, Xue'er, be modest. No one is worse than me," Zhang Qimo said with a smile. She also slightly satisfied her vanity. After all, for so many years, she had never felt like being praised by the stars.
As they chatted, Lin Yin and Zhang Qimo both sat down on the sofa.
At this time, Li Xue'er moved closer to Lin Yin, looking a little unhappy.
"Lin Yin, it's not easy for Qimo to hold her head high today. Don't embarrass her." Li Xue'er warned him, "Don't tell them that you're Qimo's husband. Do you understand?"
Lin Yin smiled and said nothing.
"Qimo, you too. Why did you bring Lin Yin here? You know, this time I helped you to spread the news. In front of your classmates, you are almost an idol of our class." Li Xue'er persuaded Zhang Qimo earnestly, "Don't let Lin Yin ruin your idol image."
"You too. Lin Yin doesn't deserve you. It's a stain on your life. With your talent and beauty, you can easily find someone who is a hundred times stronger than you."
Li Xue'er urged Zhang Qimo hard, not caring about Lin Yin sitting next to her.
"Well, Xue'er, let's not talk about this during our class reunion today," Zhang Qimo said seriously.
At this time, a girl suggested, "Today's class reunion is also to celebrate Qimo's victory. Come, let's have a drink together."
"Cheers!"
"Happy!"
The group of people got up and drank a glass of beer.
After everyone sat down, Lyu Hui suddenly took out an exquisite gift box from his pocket and opened it. Inside it was a string of shining emerald necklace, which was very shiny. At a glance, one could tell that it was of superior quality.
"Qimo, congratulations on your promotion to the director of the group. This is a small gift for me. I hope you can accept it." Lyu Hui walked to Zhang Qimo and held this gift box with a smile.
"Wow! This is a small gift? A few days ago, I saw a jade necklace that was tens of thousands of yuan more than this small one in a jewelry store. This one seems to be of good quality." A girl looked at the jade necklace with shining eyes.
"You're so generous, Brother Lyu. Your necklace should start with 100,000 yuan!" A man praised.
"Tut-tut, Brother Lyu, you seem to be proposing to Qi Mo?" Another beautiful girl said with a playful expression.
