Chapter 4816: Bloodline Inheritance

Lin Yi chuckled, "Just know that, it's a gift from her to the child."

"This longevity lock is quite heavy; it must have cost a lot of money."

"You don't need to worry about the money, it was a gift from her anyway."

“No, she’s already buying things for her child, so I should buy something for her child when I have time.”

Wang Ying knew about Yan Ci's situation, and even more so about her relationship with Lin Yi, but she had never said anything about it.

I learned from Lulu that she had also had a child and had bought a gift for her child, so I was going to give her a gift in return.

"I don't know, let's talk about it when we have time."

Wang Ying nodded, preparing to choose some gifts in the next few days and then send them to her.

"How's business at the store lately? Are you feeling tired?" Lin Yi asked.

“Actually, I was prepared to retire at first, but my child is very obedient. He doesn’t mind who holds him to sleep and he’s not too dependent on me, so I’ve shifted my focus to work. I think I’m in a good position now, so you don’t need to worry about me.”

"You've had a tough year, and I wasn't even there for you when you gave birth," Lin Yi said with emotion.

Wang Ying grasped Lin Yi's hand. Having known him for so many years, she knew what he was thinking.

"But you've also sacrificed a lot, and these are things I should share with you. Don't think too much about it."

After discussing the gift, Lin Yi opened the refrigerator, which was filled with a lot of things; it had everything he needed, so there was no need to buy anything else.

That evening, Lin Yi showed off his culinary skills by cooking a table full of dishes for Wang Ying, and the family enjoyed a meal together.

Even the housekeeper at home exclaimed how delicious the dishes Lin Yi cooked were.

After dinner, Wang Ying did the same thing as Yan Ci: she didn't stay at home that night but planned to go to a hotel.

As for why they went to a hotel, they both knew the answer.

Before going to the hotel, Wang Ying wanted to take Lin Yi shopping to buy some gifts for Yan Ci's child, but Lin Yi refused.

"Don't rush to buy anything, don't make it like a complicated process, just be casual."

"alright."

Although I wasn't in a hurry to buy a gift, I still browsed around for a while before going to the hotel.

After spending two days with Wang Ying, Lin Yi returned home.

Because it's summer vacation, Xiao Nuonuo is also on vacation.

After not seeing her for several months, Xiao Nuonuo seemed to have grown up quite a bit. Ji Qingyan had styled her hair into a bun, and she was playing in the sand in the yard with a small shovel.

Lin Yi stood behind her, watching her stick her little bottom out, holding a small shovel, and patting the sand in the sand.

I've always loved playing in the sand, and even now that I'm all grown up, that love hasn't changed at all.

After emptying the sand from the small bucket, Xiao Nuonuo turned around and picked up another small bucket, where she unexpectedly saw Lin Yi.

He squatted there for a moment, stunned, before realizing who the person in front of him was!

"father!"

With a scream, Xiao Nuonuo put down the shovel and ran towards Lin Yi, rushing towards him like a small cannonball.

The people inside the house heard Xiao Nuonuo's voice and immediately came out.

"The son-in-law is back!"

Song Minghui came out of the room and was pleasantly surprised to see Lin Yi back.

"Mom," Lin Yi greeted her with a smile.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming back? Come inside quickly."

Lin Yi carried Xiao Nuonuo home.

The family's nanny was pushing the baby in a stroller; the youngest son, Lin Xiao, was already one year old.

And he can already walk, and doesn't even need his aunt's help.

He just didn't recognize me, and no matter how I tried to coax him, he wouldn't come over. He even looked at me with a bit of fear in his eyes.

"That's Daddy, let Daddy hug you."

Song Minghui held the child, wanting to put him in Lin Yi's arms, but the child kept rolling around and she was afraid to go.

"You look a little unfamiliar, let him get used to it."

"Ah."

Lin Yi didn't do anything, just sat on the sofa watching his son. Little Nuonuo sat obediently next to him and would play with him with toys. She was already acting like a big sister.

Lin Yi suddenly realized something: his children all seemed to be in pretty good physical condition.

When I talked to them about this, almost all of them said that they seemed to have started crawling and walking earlier than other children of the same age, which may have been due to their own physical constitution.

"Where's Yan Yan?" Lin Yi asked.

"She's been in charge of things at the company while you were away, and she's here now."

"Then I'll go find her."

“Dad, I want to go with you too,” little Nuonuo volunteered.

"Then go wash your hands, and Dad will take you to find Mom."

"Got it. I'll go now."

Ding Ding Ding-

Xiao Nuonuo went to the restroom to wash his hands, and then Lin Yi took him to the company.

When Lin Yi appeared at the company with his child, many employees were stunned. They hadn't seen their boss for over a year and found him to have changed a lot, so none of them dared to go up and acknowledge him.

Upon arriving at the chairman's office, before even entering, I heard the laughter of two women.

Pushing open the door, I saw Ji Qingyan chatting with He Yuanyuan.

Last time I came back, I only glanced at the child briefly before leaving; I didn't see anyone else.

I haven't seen He Yuanyuan for over a year either.

I noticed that her hair had grown longer, and after having a child, she exuded a more feminine charm.

Both of them were stunned when they saw Lin Yi bring the child in.

Ji Qingyan immediately sat up from her chair.

"When did you get back? Why didn't you let me know?"

"I just wanted to give you a surprise."

Regardless of whether He Yuanyuan was there or not, Ji Qingyan hugged Lin Yi tightly.

"How did you get so tanned?"

Holding Lin Yi's hand, she noticed he had aged considerably, his hands covered in calluses, and her heart ached for him.

"I've been staying outside for over a year, so I got a bit tanned, but it's okay, don't worry."

At this moment, He Yuanyuan walked over. Although the two started fighting as soon as they met, she was still somewhat emotional to see Lin Yi after more than a year.

"Are you leaving again this time you're back?"

"It's uncertain when we'll leave, but we should be able to stay for a while longer."

"That's fine."

"You two chat first, I won't be a third wheel. Let's have dinner together tonight."

"Ah."

He Yuanyuan left, and Ji Qingyan wiped away her tears.

"Let's go home, we can't stay here anymore."

"Ah."

The family of three left the company and went home. The two talked a lot on the way, and Ji Qingyan's tears kept falling. She was really heartbroken.

But she couldn't say these things, after all, this was Lin Yi's job.

Lin Yi didn't know what to say, after all, that's how his job was, so he could only keep comforting her.

Lin Yi also felt a little sorry for her. He had been away for so long, and the burden had fallen on her shoulders. It hadn't been easy for her either...
