Chapter 4171: Chapter 4159: Taking Advantage and Playing Innocent

Cao Wanqiang’s expression was a bit awkward, but upon closer thought, it was a good thing, as long as he could send it back and resolve the issue.

If things escalated to an uncontrollable level, he might also be affected.

"Alright, don’t worry, I’ll definitely handle this matter properly."

Lin Yi nodded and waved to Jiang Wenhui who was not far away.

"Let’s go."

Jiang Wenhui quickened her pace and got to Lin Yi’s side. Lin Yi smiled and said:

"Still in the mood to treat us to a meal now?"

"Yes!"

Jiang Wenhui said simply, "Let’s go back now, and after Little Ying gets off work, we’ll go have dinner."

Lin Yi smiled, "No rush, we can talk about it after we get back."

"Okay."

Lin Yi hailed a cab and left with Jiang Wenhui.

Cao Wanqiang stood in place, watching Lin Yi’s departing figure. He thought of that phone call just now, with its stern wording, which made him shiver, sending a chill from his heel up to the top of his skull, and he hurriedly quickened his pace and walked back.

"Leader."

Seeing Cao Wanqiang, two people stood up to greet him.

They originally thought Cao Wanqiang had come back for other reasons, but they saw his face didn’t look very good.

"Did you just confiscate a woman’s things and not let her set up a stall at Shengda Square?"

The two immediately thought of Jiang Wenhui.

"She didn’t have a permit, according to the regulations, it doesn’t count as setting up a stall."

"She’s already applied for the permit, it’s been several days, why hasn’t it been processed yet!" Cao Wanqiang’s tone also rose.

"And even if she didn’t have a permit, what’s with the 2000 fine? And confiscating her stuff! Does that follow procedures?"

Both were stunned by what was said.

They didn’t know what to say for a while.

As for what happened, they’re aware, but they didn’t understand why Cao Wanqiang was so angry!

"Boss, when she was selling, she streamed it live, creating a bad influence, so we handled it following the highest penalty standards."

"Nonsense!" Cao Wanqiang was furious, "Do you know who the man by her side was!"

With this, both of them froze, unsure of what to say...

...

After leaving, the two of them took a cab back to Shengda Square.

Jiang Wenhui was ready to return to the apartment, but Lin Yi stood in place.

Seeing Lin Yi, Jiang Wenhui asked, "Are you planning to find her? Little Ying hasn’t finished work yet."

"No rush, let’s just wait here. They’ll return the things in a bit."

"Huh?"

Jiang Wenhui looked at Lin Yi in surprise, her expression unexpected.

"They’ll return the things? Can it be that fast?"

"Just wait here." Lin Yi said with a smile.

Jiang Wenhui was completely confused by it.

While she wasn’t aware of these matters, she knew it wasn’t something that could be resolved in a day.

Neither was in a hurry, they just waited at the place where they were selling earlier.

The weather was warm, and there was a gentle breeze. Watching the activities on the square was a kind of leisure.

Meanwhile, the seller of balloons from earlier walked over with a big bunch of balloons, as well as brightly colored children’s toys, slowly drifting in front of the two of them.

While selling, he occasionally glanced at Lin Yi and Jiang Wenhui with a provoking expression.

Jiang Wenhui felt a bit uncomfortable being watched, but she didn’t think too much about it. She even tugged at her clothes, worried about any wardrobe malfunctions.

"I saw you guys leaving with officials earlier, what happened, are you not allowed to set up a stall here anymore?"

Seeing the middle-aged man speaking, Jiang Wenhui felt he was a bit gleeful in others’ misfortune, she kept a straight face and said nothing.

In Lin Yi’s view, her sulky look was somewhat endearing.

"Indeed, we’re not allowed to set up a stall here, they confiscated our stuff and fined us," Lin Yi said with a chuckle.

"That’s too much, you’re just selling some stuff, is that necessary?"

"Exactly, it’s not easy for ordinary people to make some money," Lin Yi said:

"But it was too much of a coincidence, no one cared when business was bad, but as soon as it got good, they took us away, maybe someone with an ulterior motive reported us, otherwise it wouldn’t be like this."

Initially, Jiang Wenhui didn’t understand what he meant, but after Lin Yi said that, she immediately realized something was wrong.

Her business was doing well, possibly arousing jealousy from her peers, who secretly reported her. In Shengda Square, her only peer was him.

The middle-aged man selling balloons also felt a bit flustered, his expression not as natural as before.

He hadn’t expected Lin Yi to suspect him.

He thought he had been very careful, how did Lin Yi know?

"No way, it’s likely just a coincidence, maybe just a run of bad luck."

"I don’t think so, someone definitely reported us," Lin Yi said with a smile to the middle-aged man:

"Don’t you think the person who secretly reported us was a bit nasty, we’re all out here doing business, how could they stoop to such things, don’t they want any good karma for their descendants?"

"It...it wasn’t that serious, was it...?"

"Whether it was that serious or not, it’s definitely nasty, do you admit it?"

"I... I admit..." the middle-aged man realized things were off and quickly shifted the topic.

"Your stuff was confiscated, what are you still doing here?"

"We’re waiting for them to return it. We have to wait a while."

"They’re going to return it to you? How could that be?"

"We didn’t commit any major offense, it wasn’t enough to confiscate our things, they’ll definitely return it in a bit."

The middle-aged man chuckled to himself, knowing exactly how things stood, it would be a miracle if they got their stuff back.

"Alright then, you take your time, I need to keep doing business."

With that, the middle-aged man hollered to the passersby:

"Buy a balloon for your child."

Since he was the only remaining vendor nearby, children had to come to him to buy things, business was quite good.

The middle-aged man didn’t go far, he continued to hover in front of the two, while Jiang Wenhui sat nearby getting angrier the more she thought about it.

"Do you think he reported us?"

Looking at Jiang Wenhui, Lin Yi smiled, "What do you think?"

"I have no proof, it’s not good to wrongly accuse someone."

Lin Yi smiled without saying anything.

He just felt that this job full of gangster vibes wasn’t quite suitable for her.

Just then, the two people who confiscated the things returned, carrying a large bag of stuff and a bunch of balloons.

The eyes of those around were drawn to them.

"Bro, what happened earlier was a misunderstanding, we didn’t know, your permit has been processed, you can set up a stall here, we’ve brought your things back, and the 2000 fine is here too."

After saying that, one of them handed over a file folder, "Inside is your permit, it’s all here, not missing a single thing."
