Li Wenzhao was speechless when he saw the green face in front of him. After a moment, he asked calmly, “What is this thing?”
“It’s a gift from the young master,” Jing Yi stared blankly at his chest, “It turns out it’s not a diamond.”
Li Wenzhao: “…”
Jing Yi looked at the green light in front of him, and a familiar melody suddenly surged in his ears… Love is a light, so green that it makes you panic.
Jing Yi: “…” Bah. Bah. Bah.
Li Wenzhao’s expression was indescribable: “Why did he give you this?”
Jing Yi pursed his lips and said lightly: “Maybe he wants to provide us with a way out of the embarrassment?”
Li Wenzhao just sneered: “Then his steps may be a bit steep.”
After saying that, Li Wenzhao raised his hand and turned on the switch. The suffocating green light in front of him finally disappeared. He touched the thing on the butler’s neck and said, “Take it off.”
Jing Yi quickly covered it up: “How can that be possible? This is a gift from the young master.”
After a pause, he raised his eyes suspiciously: “Why, you want to wear it too?”
Li Wenzhao’s mouth twitched: “You are too suspicious.”
Jing Yi regretfully recommended: “Wouldn’t it be nice to wear it? If we get separated in the future, you can spot me in the crowd at a glance.”
It’s like having an anti-counterfeiting mark on it, very cool.
“…”
Li Wenzhao was at a loss for words: “Then what I saw in the crowd should be a head surrounded by green light.”
Jing Yi: “…”
The scene was a little scary, so he quickly took off the necklace, but decided not to go out and pretend to be a ghost to scare people.
“Then I’ll go back first.” Jing Yi looked at the wet body in front of him, his cheeks flushed, and he quickly turned around and ran away: “Good night, young master~”
Li Wenzhao grabbed nothing: “…”
He flirted and then ran away. The butler was very quick.
Jing Yi ran downstairs and happened to meet Li Mingzhi who had just returned home from work.
Seeing him coming down from upstairs, Li Mingzhi was stunned: “Jingyi? Why are you here?”
Jing Yi calmed down and said nonsense: “Sending midnight snack to the young master.”
Li Mingzhi nodded, and then he looked down and saw what Jing Yi was holding: “Wow, have you opened the gift I gave you? Do you like it very much?”
“…” Jing Yi glanced at his hand: “I like it very much. It would be better if it didn’t emit green light.”
Li Mingzhi chuckled, “It’s fluorescent. It looks good, right?”
Jing Yi: “It looks good. Wearing it makes me feel like I have an underground organization.”
Li Mingzhi laughed loudly.
Jing Yi: “…”
So why did you send this?
Don’t do anything pretentious. If you have the guts, give real diamonds.
Li Mingzhi came home from work and was now complaining that he was a little hungry. Jing Yi put away the fluorescent necklace and went to the kitchen.
Li Mingzhi followed curiously: “Jingyi, you can cook.”
“No.” Jing Yi rummaged through the cupboards and refrigerator and took out his private stash of instant noodles: “But I can cook a bowl of instant noodles that is both delicious and fragrant.”
Li Mingzhi: “?”
Ten minutes later, Li Mingzhi and Jing Yi sat at the dining table, each holding a bowl.
Li Mingzhi took a bite of noodles and paused.
Jing Yi: “What’s wrong?”
Li Mingzhi chewed slowly for a few times: “…It tastes so good!”
“Is that so?” Jing Yi buried his head in picking noodles: “I feel so good after staying up late and having a bowl of noodles.”
Li Mingzhi nodded and said, “What’s the full name of this thing? I’ll ask my assistant to buy some tomorrow.”
Jing Yi paused: “You’ve never eaten it before?”
“No.” Li Mingzhi said, “My diet is all customized by my eldest brother and a nutritionist. I’ve never tasted anything so special.”
Jing Yi: “…”
I really want to compete with you rich people.
He pushed the remaining two buckets of instant noodles in front of Li Mingzhi: “Eat more if you like.”
Li Mingzhi’s eyes were bright: “Jingyi, you are so nice to me.”
Jing Yi: “…”
It’s a gift of reciprocity, a fluorescent necklace and late-night instant noodles, it’s the same for you.
After eating and drinking, Jing Yi and Li Mingzhi went back to their rooms burping.

The next morning, Jing Yi and Li Wenzhao went to visit the richest man’s house together.
When visiting for the first time, Li Wenzhao brought a gift appropriate to his status.
The private car drove towards the suburbs, and Uncle Lin was still driving.
Jing Yi leaned back in his chair with his head tilted and yawned, “Master, you won’t have any friends if you visit so early in the morning.”
Li Wenzhao glanced at him and said, “It’s already eleven o’clock.”
Oh, it turned out that he got up late again. Jing Yi pursed his lips: “Then I hope Mr. Richest Man won’t mind that we showed up at lunch time.”
Li Wenzhao: “…”
Jing Yi remembered that the richest man Liang Jing was mentioned in the original text, but not in a long space. The few times he appeared, he was always an excellent assist for Shen Shubai, and each time he appeared, he caused huge losses to the Li family.
But that was the original text. As time went on, the plot that Jing Yi had seen had become completely disrupted, and the situations of Shen Shubai and Li Wenzhao were completely reversed.
As long as Li Wenzhao prevents Shen Shubai from obtaining financial support from the richest man, he will have won half the battle.
Without the original author’s mother filter and treatment, Shen Shubai would not be a match for Li Wenzhao. As for a high-level assistant like Liang Jing, whoever gets him will get him.
Rich people seem to like pursuing natural oxygen bars. The Liang family’s house is built on the top of a mountain, and there are security guards on duty 24 hours a day at the entrances and exits at the foot of the mountain.
Jing Yi was amazed: “What a big event.”
Li Wenzhao said, “This is the pomp and ceremony that the richest man should have.”
Jing Yi turned his head and asked: “How much money does he have?”
Li Wenzhao reported a number.
Jing Yi thought for a few seconds and was surprised: “Master, you seem to be richer than the richest man.”
The car body shook slightly. Li Wenzhao looked at Uncle Lin in the front seat, then retracted his gaze: “The ranking of the rich is based on the wealth that has been announced. Some are high-profile, some are low-profile. The ranking does not mean anything.”
[But no one will have a deposit of digits beyond the scope of knowledge]
That’s true.
Li Wenzhao could not refute this.
Jing Yi puffed out his chest and looked at the top of the mountain excitedly: “Let’s go, let’s go and have a look together.”
Li Wenzhao: “…”

Jing Yi originally thought that the richest man’s house should be magnificent and splendid, but as he slowly approached the top of the mountain, he saw an ancient building with exquisite design, and the pavilions and towers were very delicate and perfect.
Perhaps it is the owner’s ultimate pursuit that every blade of grass and every tree on the top of the mountain exudes the charm of natural harmony.
It was almost one o’clock in the afternoon, and the green tiles and red walls could be seen from afar on the mountain path.
Jing Yi leaned over the car window and looked out the internet, clicking his tongue twice: “The richest man is the richest man. If we want to visit him, it’s like going to the palace to pay homage to the emperor.”
Li Wenzhao glanced sideways: “Isn’t this the scene you want?”
The car slowly drove to the top of the mountain, and a huge square arch came into view, with lifelike dragon reliefs on both sides.
Jing Yi shook his head: “I like the pomp and circumstance, but he is about to ascend the throne.”
Li Wenzhao: “…”
As early as when they entered the mountain, the Liang family had received the news. As soon as they got off the car, someone came to lead the way:
“Boss Li, Mr. Jing, please follow me. Mr. Liang is waiting for you two.”
The two of them walked through the corridors with carved beams and painted buildings, and the plum garden with a faint fragrance, and finally found Liang Jing who was staring at the window in a daze in the small house in the backyard.
“I’m here.” Liang Jing smiled faintly, “I’m fishing, so it’s inconvenient for me to get up to greet you. You two can do whatever you want.”
Jing Yi and Li Wenzhao looked at each other: “?”
Where did the fish come from?
There are no lakes or streams in this place. Are you cosplaying as Liang Taigong fishing[1]Jing Tai Gong knew Ji Chang was very ambitious so he hoped to get Ji’s attention. At that time, he was over 70 years old already! He often went fishing at the Weishui River, but he would fish … Continue reading?
Jing Yi leaned over to take a look. The window in front of Liang Jing was open. A small pit of several square meters had been dug under the window. The water was very shallow, and a few fat and strong carp were swaying in the clear water.
Jing Yi: “…”
Fishing in the artificial lake. No wonder the fish are so fat, I’m afraid they are all fed by Liang Jing with one rod after another.
You rich people, are even your hobbies so niche?
Perhaps noticing Jing Yi’s indescribable expression, Liang Jing laughed twice and said, “I like fishing, but it’s not convenient in the mountains, so I dug a puddle to entertain myself.”
Jing Yi praised: “Your fish are well raised. They are all fat and strong.”
“…” Liang Jing was stunned for two seconds, then burst into laughter, “Your way of speaking is quite to my liking, hahahaha, humorous, humorous.”
The loud laughter did not scare the fish in the puddle at all, and they continued to float freely.
Jing Yi didn’t know why Liang Jing asked them to come, and Li Wenzhao didn’t ask. Liang Jing just kept chatting with him, “Do you know how to play chess?”
Li Wenzhao said: “I know a little bit.”
Liang Jing asked Jing Yi again.
Jing Yi looked at the black and white chess pieces on the table and said softly, “I know how to play Gobang.”
Liang Jing laughed out loud, “Boss Li, will you play a round with me?”
Li Wenzhao: “Okay.”
The fishing rod was put down, and Li Wenzhao and Liang Jing quickly started the chess game.
