I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 2268: Chapter 2269: Everything Can Be Mooched Off Of

The man named Sun Xueqiang had developed high blood pressure because he took the same medication as Ma Dehong.

At first glance, this might not seem like a clue.

After all, they were taking the same type of medicine called Betalek.

However, the situation was not as straightforward as it appeared.

In the detention center, only Ma Dehong and Sun Xueqiang were patients with high blood pressure.

So Wang Mei Jia had prepared their medicine in advance.

She would make up a dozen or more doses, pack them in sealed bags, and hand them over to the prison guards when they came by.

But there was a problem in the middle, Ma Dehong died from a cerebral hemorrhage so the medicine that had been prepared for him was no longer needed.

But it couldn’t be said to be a waste, since it was all the same medicine.

Wang Mei Jia took the remaining medicine from Ma Dehong, replaced it with a label bearing Sun Xueqiang’s name, and continued to administer it to him.

In terms of procedure, there was nothing wrong with the way this was handled, and it was beyond reproach.

The problem was, after Sun Xueqiang took Ma Dehong’s medicine, he also suffered symptoms of high blood pressure and fell into a coma.

However, after the incident, Sun Xueqiang started taking other batches of Betalek and his blood pressure remained stable, with no further issues.

After discussing it, they reached a unanimous conclusion that the medicines Ma Dehong had taken must have been tampered with.

They appeared to be Betalek, but it was likely that someone had interfered with them.

Fortunately, Ma Dehong had one pill remaining, which was taken away by Li Xianghui.

After the New Year’s holiday, it would be tested in the lab.

After finishing the chat with Li Xianghui and with night falling, Lin Yi, with a grand gesture, drove the orphanage’s car and took Ji Qingyan and the kids to the outskirts to set off fireworks.

The fireworks were originally bought for the kids at the orphanage, but once they got there, they found that Ji Qingyan was having even more fun than the children, her smile never leaving her face.

After the fireworks, the group sang songs all the way back to the orphanage in the car.

The first day of the New Year ended in this cheerful atmosphere.

Early the next morning, everybody was busying with their own things one after another.

Some of the school-aged kids were hurried by Wang Cuiping to revise their studies.

Wu Feiyue now had a girlfriend, and Ning Yue had gotten married, so today they both went back to their homes to visit.

Because Lin Yi was invited by Wu Zhaoyou to attend an entrepreneurs’ gathering that evening, he decided to stay an additional day and planned to return with Ji Qingyan the following day.

Even though everyone had left, Lin Yi was not idle; Wang Cuiping arranged for him to work with Zhao Quanfu.

Only Wang Cuiping could get Lin Yi, whose family fortune amounted to over a hundred billion, to do manual labor.

At around four in the afternoon, Lin Yi received a call from Wu Zhaoyou, telling him that the meeting would start at six and reminding him not to be late.

At five o’clock in the evening, Ning Yue and Qu Xuanhe also came back because they were supposed to join Lin Yi for the evening’s meeting.

“You two free tonight? Come join us,” Lin Yi said.

“I’d rather not go; I’ll stay home and talk with Mother Wang. You all go ahead,” Ji Qing replied.

She, like Lin Yi, had little interest in such meetings, believing that you couldn’t really talk business at such gatherings.

“I won’t go either; I want to stay home with my sister-in-law.”

“Okay then.”

Lin Yi and Qu Xuanhe left the orphanage together and got into his Panamera, heading to the Kantlay Hotel in Yang City.

The hotel was very luxuriously decorated, and many nice cars were parked out front, but beyond that, nothing seemed out of the ordinary.

Upon arrival, they saw a small sign that read, “Yangcheng Entrepreneurs’ Annual Meeting, held on the 3rd floor, Room 303. Welcome to all our guests.”

Once inside the hotel, they went up to the third floor, which was actually the second, because the first two floors had been combined into a bright and spacious lobby.

Reaching the third floor, they found the decorations even more glitzy than Lin Yi had imagined.

The entire floor was meant for banquet halls for various occasions.

Because of the New Year, the atmosphere was also tinged with a festive mood.

They looked toward room 303 and saw a few people standing by the door, among them several tall beauties, dressed in uniformly skimpy outfits.

With their shoulders and thighs exposed, sporting high heels and different colored stockings, they were definitely eye-catching.

In addition, there were three men, all looking refined and quite handsome.

These people were models and minor celebrities.

They had come here today because they heard that a entrepreneurs’ gathering was taking place in the hotel and that many entrepreneurs from Yang City would be attending, hoping to strike it lucky. If they could latch onto one or two bosses, or even get themselves inside, they could connect with a higher-end social circle and perhaps even turn their lives around.

Nevertheless, the bosses attending today were seasoned in business battles.

Whether male or female, all had been through the mill and seen every trick in the book, naturally they wouldn’t entertain these hopefuls.

Even though these bosses were not exactly angels themselves, they wouldn’t solve their carnal needs through such means and channels.

Thus, the hopefuls were becoming anxious and even losing patience.

The appearance of Lin Yi and Qu Xuanhe caught the eye of the tall beauties, and they started murmuring amongst themselves.

“Look, a handsome boy has come up from downstairs,” one of the long-haired women excitedly exclaimed.

The rest cast their gaze toward Lin Yi, clearly impressed.

“Definitely not bad, he’s so handsome, but doesn’t seem effeminate at all, a real gem.”

“I feel like it’s tough to rub shoulders with the big bosses today, hooking a handsome boy instead wouldn’t be too bad.”

“That’s true, but who knows how capable he is?”

“Look at his hands; you can see the veins, so you know his body’s in good shape. I’m telling you, guys like that last at least half an hour, which is more than enough for us.”

“If that’s the case, could they be here gambling on their luck too?”

“Possibly, today’s event is for Yang City’s entrepreneurs, they are too young to likely have an invitation.”

“Could they be the sons of some big boss?”

“Doesn’t seem like it, look at their demeanor, they seem rather approachable, not boastful at all, unlike typical rich kids.”

“I have the same feeling.”

A long-legged beauty’s eyes lit up, “None of you fight me for him, I’ll go and strike up a conversation. If I can’t snag a big boss, getting a handsome boy wouldn’t be a loss.”

With that, the long-legged beauty adjusted her short skirt and walked towards Lin Yi.

“Hey, handsome.”
