Chapter 2018: An Embarrassing Act

Lin Yi nodded with a smile. “I do have some doubts.”

“Damn it, you asked for it!”

Liu Jianyan shouted and threw a straight punch at Lin Yi.

Lin Yi slightly tilted his head, easily dodging the punch.

Liu Jianyan was momentarily stunned, not expecting Lin Yi to evade his attack.

“Kid, you’re pretty quick.” Liu Jianyan smirked. “Let’s see if you can dodge my second punch.”

“You won’t get a second punch,” Lin Yi said.

“What do you mean?”

Lin Yi didn’t respond verbally. Instead, he answered with action.

With a casual punch, he struck Liu Jianyan’s nose.



Before Liu Jianyan could cry out in pain, Lin Yi grabbed the clothes from his hands, stuffed them into his mouth, and then proceeded to punch and kick his face repeatedly.

In less than a minute, Liu Jianyan’s once-handsome face was swollen beyond recognition, now resembling a pig’s head.

Lin Yi dusted off his clothes and walked out of the fitting room as if nothing had happened.

In the selection area, Yan Ci had found a dress she liked and was waiting for Lin Yi to come out so she could try it on.

At that moment, Chen Ya approached casually, pretending to look at jewelry.

“Director Yan, your pretty boyfriend has been in there for a long time. I hope nothing happened to him.”

Initially, Yan Ci didn’t want to engage with Chen Ya, but her words made her uneasy.

“What do you mean?”

“Nothing, just a friendly reminder.” Chen Ya said nonchalantly.

“It’s so hot today. I’m worried your boyfriend might suffer heatstroke and faint in the fitting room.”

Yan Ci frowned, sensing something was off.

Earlier, while she was choosing jewelry, Chen Ya’s boyfriend had also gone into the fitting room with a piece of clothing.

Could he have done it intentionally to cause trouble for Lin Yi?

Thinking about it, Yan Ci found it highly likely. Otherwise, Chen Ya wouldn’t have come over to say such things.

“Even if he suffers heatstroke, it’s none of your concern. Worry about your boyfriend instead.”

“He’ll be fine.” Chen Ya said.



Chen Ya snorted and went elsewhere to pick out clothes and accessories.

“Forget about her,” Lin Yi said.

“How do these clothes look? If they’re fine, I’ll buy this set.”

Lin Yi wasn’t interested in shopping or trying on clothes. He saw it as a waste of time. If the outfit was decent, he didn’t want to change it.

“I think it looks great.” Yan Ci evaluated.



“You really are a clothes hanger. You can pull off any look. This set is perfect.”

“Did you pick out your things?” Lin Yi asked.

“All done.”

Yan Ci took out the jade bracelet she had chosen earlier. “I picked this for you. How does it look? If it’s not good, I can choose something else.”

“No need. This is fine,” Lin Yi said. “It’s just a formality.”

“Alright, let’s pay.”

They took their items to the counter to pay.

Coincidentally, Chen Ya was also there, but her expression was no longer as smug. She kept a straight face.

“Please tally up my items.”

“Ma’am, after the discount, your total is 39,600.”

“Charge it.” Chen Ya said coldly.

Since Chen Ya didn’t have many items, her payment was processed quickly. Then it was Yan Ci and Lin Yi’s turn.

The cashier instinctively glanced at Lin Yi, shaking her head inwardly.



He was handsome and well-built, but he was just clinging to a wealthy woman.

What a pity.

Yan Ci didn’t notice and placed her items on the counter.

“Please tally up my items.”

“Ma’am, after the discount, your total is 968,000.”

The clothes they chose weren’t expensive, but the jade bracelet Yan Ci picked was, hence the high bill.

“Heh, Director Yan really spends big. Almost a million just like that,” Chen Ya said sarcastically.

“What, can’t I spend the money I earned?”

“No, it’s just that I pity you,” Chen Ya said.

“With your status, you could marry into a wealthy family. Instead, you found a pretty boy, and you’re paying for his clothes and jewelry. Director Yan, you really work hard.”
